Description
- The invention relates to a dryer for flexible laminar elements, particularly adapted to dry animal hides.
- The invention also relates to a drying plant comprising a plurality of the aforementioned dryers arranged in line one after the other.
- The dryer and the drying plant of the invention are particularly useful in the tanneries for drying the hides after they have undergone the moist treatments and before proceeding to the subsequent processes that bring them to the state of finished product.
- The drying operations are carried out using dryers of various types which operate according to different principles.
- For example, so-called "vacuum" dryers are known in which the hide is dried by evaporation of the water it contains in an environment in which the vacuum is created.
- Dryers in which the hides are dried stretched on panels transiting along a tunnel and to which each hide is bound by means of grippers arranged peripherally along the perimeter edge are also known.
- Dryers which consist of a tunnel along which the hides transit from an inlet station to an outlet station, stretched on the surface of vertical panels, are also known.
- Inside the tunnel, the hides are dried by means of air which is heated using, for example, steam batteries and is then conveyed along the drying tunnel. The hot air in contact with the hides dries them, is charged with moisture and is then extracted when the moisture content it contains exceeds a predefined value.
- To improve the drying process and to reduce energy consumption, dryers are known in which hot air is taken at the initial part of the tunnel located downstream of the station for the inlet of hides and is then introduced at the final part of the tunnel located upstream of the outlet station.
- During the operation of the dryer, the hot air is then repeatedly recycled between the initial part and the final part of the tunnel, obtaining an improvement in thermal efficiency and significant energy savings since the caloric intake in the final part of the tunnel by the air taken in the initial part allows reducing consumption.
- A drawback that is found in the dryers in which the aforementioned recycling of hot air takes place derives from the fact that the drying tunnel comprises a single chamber in which there is no partition between the initial part where the air is taken and the final part where the air is introduced.
- This leads to a loss of efficiency of the heat exchange since the lack of partition between the initial part and the final part of the tunnel favours the establishment of an abnormal circulation so that part of the hot air that is introduced into the final part of the tunnel is immediately sucked in through the suction that takes place in the initial part.
- Furthermore, in the dryers in which the tunnel comprises a single chamber, there is also a significant difficulty in controlling the drying temperature and maintaining it at the value desired by the user along the entire length of the drying tunnel.
- Finally, known heating systems, for example with heat exchange batteries, make it difficult to control the drying temperature and above all make it difficult for the user to modify it quickly to adapt it to his needs.
- The
patent document GB 2 043 860 - The present invention has the aim of overcoming the drawbacks listed above. In particular, a first object is to provide a dryer for flexible laminar elements, in particular for animal hides, which has better thermal efficiency compared to known dryers equivalent thereto.
- Another object is that the dryer of the invention allows a more effective and precise control of the drying temperature.
- The listed objects are achieved with the realization of the dryer of the invention according to what is described in the main claim to which reference will be made.
- Further characteristics of the dryer of the invention are described in the dependent claims.
- Advantageously, the dryer of the invention, with respect to the known dryers, has a greater operating flexibility.
- Still advantageously, the dryer of the invention, with respect to known dryers equivalent thereto, allows significant energy savings.
- Finally, the better control of the drying temperature that the dryer of the invention allows also leads to a qualitative improvement of the hides being dried.
- The aims and advantages listed and any other shall be better highlighted below during the description of a preferred but not exclusive embodiment of the invention, which is provided with reference to the appended drawings in which:
-
fig. 1 shows a longitudinal section of the dryer of the invention carried out according to the section line I - I offig. 3 ; -
fig. 2 shows another longitudinal section of the dryer of the invention carried out according to the section line II - II offig. 3 ; -
fig. 3 shows the plan view of the dryer offig. 2 ; -
fig. 4 shows the longitudinal section of a drying plant comprising several dryers of the invention arranged in line. - The dryer of the invention is represented in
figures 1 to 3 in which it is indicated as a whole with 1. - The dryer is used for drying flexible laminar elements, preferably animal hides P, and essentially comprises a
drying tunnel 2 which develops in a predominantly longitudinal direction X. - Inside the
drying tunnel 2 there is atransport surface 3 which develops along thedrying tunnel 2 from an inlet station 4 to anoutlet station 5 and on which the hides to be dried are stretched. - In particular, the
transport surface 3 belongs to aconveyor belt 35 which is wound like a closed loop between afirst cylinder 36, arranged upstream of thedrying tunnel 2 and at the inlet station 4, and asecond cylinder 37 which is arranged downstream of thedrying tunnel 2 and at theoutlet station 5. - In other embodiments, however belonging to the prior art, the
transport surface 3, instead of belonging to a conveyor belt, may belong to a plurality of belts or wires arranged parallel to each other and side by side. - Motorization means are associated to the
first cylinder 36 or to thesecond cylinder 37 which set them in rotation so as to advance thetransport surface 3 with the hides arranged thereon along thedrying tunnel 2. - It is also observed the presence of
means 6 for circulating drying air inside thedrying tunnel 2 which comprise at least oneintake piping 7 and at least one delivery hood 8 communicating with theinternal volume 10 of thedrying tunnel 2 and are connected between them by means of at least onecollector duct 9 with which means 11 for circulating air from theintake piping 7 to the delivery hood 8 are associated. - According to the particular but not exclusive embodiment which is described, there are two
intake pipings 7 which can be seen infig. 3 and which are both connected to thecollector duct 9 which communicates with the delivery hood 8. - The circulation means 11 comprise a
fan 30, having thesuction mouth 31 connected to thecollector duct 9 and thedelivery mouth 32 connected to the delivery hood 8, which sucks the drying air through theintake pipings 7 and conveys it to the delivery hood 8. - Inside the
drying tunnel 2 there are heating means indicated as a whole with 12 which comprise a plurality of infraredfield emission lamps transport surface 3 and are powered by an electrical circuit, not represented, connected to an external source of external current. - In the
drying tunnel 2 there is apartition wall 13 which defines afirst drying chamber 14 and asecond drying chamber 15 which are arranged in succession according to the direction of travel of the hides P along thedrying tunnel 2 from the inlet station 4 to theoutlet station 5. Bothintake pipings 7 communicate with thefirst drying chamber 14 and the delivery hood 8 communicates with thesecond drying chamber 15. - In particular, the
intake mouth 7a of eachintake piping 7 and thedelivery mouth 8a of the delivery hood 8 are made in theceiling 2a of thedrying tunnel 2 so that the drying air is taken from thefirst drying chamber 14 and is conveyed to thesecond drying chamber 15. - According to the invention and as can be seen in particular in
figs. 2 and3 , in thesecond drying chamber 15 there are twolateral extractor hoods 21 which are arranged one on one side and one on the opposite side of thetransport surface 3 and each has thesuction mouth 21a arranged laterally and in a lower position than thetransport surface 3. - Furthermore, a
suction piping 25 connects eachlateral extractor hood 21 to anextractor 23 having thedischarge mouth 23b connected to adischarge piping 24 which conveys the moist drying air into the external environment to said dryingtunnel 2 at the end of the drying cycle. - Obviously, embodiments are possible in which on each side of the
transport surface 3 there is more than onelateral extractor hood 21. - For an optimal balance of the suction flows, the
lateral extractor hoods 21 are frontally opposite to each other and therespective suction pipings 25 communicate with theextractor 23 by interposition of asuction collector 26. - The presence of an
auxiliary piping 28 having theinlet mouth 28a connected to thedischarge piping 24 and theoutlet mouth 28b connected to thecollector duct 9 is also observed. - Furthermore, there is also a
shutter valve 27 installed in thedischarge piping 24 downstream of theinlet mouth 28a of theauxiliary piping 28. - In this way the
auxiliary piping 28 and theshutter valve 27 operate synergistically to let at least part of the drying air loaded with moisture recirculate in thesecond drying chamber 15 before this air is conveyed in the external environment. - Furthermore, it can be seen in
fig. 1 that filtering means 8b for filtering the air before it enters thesecond drying chamber 15 are contained in the delivery hood 8. - Operatively, when the dryer is in operation, the circulation means 11, in particular the
fan 30, continuously take air from thefirst drying chamber 14 through theintake pipings 7 and convey it to thesecond drying chamber 15 through the delivery hood 8 according to the direction of flow indicated by the arrows infig. 1 . - In this way in the
second drying chamber 15 the hides P receive a caloric intake from the hot air coming from thefirst drying chamber 14 and consequently theinfrared lamps 38b contained in thesecond drying chamber 15 can be powered in a reduced way compared to theinfrared lamps 38a present in thefirst drying chamber 14, with consequent energy savings and therefore a reduction in costs. - Obviously there will be regulation and control means, not represented and not described as known per se, which are adapted to modulate the electrical power supply of the
infrared lamps first drying chamber 14 to thesecond drying chamber 15, as a function of the drying temperature to be maintained. - The caloric intake in the
second drying chamber 15 is also increased by recycling the hot air therein which is sucked laterally and below thetransport surface 3 by theextractor 23 by means of thelateral extractor hoods 21 connected to thesuction pipings 25. - The flow rate of the air that is recycled is regulated by the
shutter valve 27. - For this purpose there will also be control means of the
shutter valve 27 adapted to modify the opening degree to regulate the flow rate of air which is expelled as a function of the moisture it contains and according to the flow indicated by the arrows infig. 2 . - It is therefore understood that the dryer 1 of the invention achieves the set aims.
- First of all, the presence of the
partition wall 13 which divides theinternal volume 10 of thedrying tunnel 2, defining afirst drying chamber 14 and asecond drying chamber 15 separated from each other, prevents the occurrence of a mixing inside thedrying tunnel 2 between the air that is introduced into thesecond drying chamber 15 through the delivery mouth 8 with the air which is taken by thefirst drying chamber 14 from theintake piping 7. - This also avoids energy losses and increases the heat exchange efficiency of the dryer as a whole.
- Furthermore, in a further advantageous way for energy purposes, the dryer of the invention is also provided with
lateral extractor hoods 21 which allow a further recirculation of the drying air before the definitive discharge thereof into the environment outside the dryer. - Furthermore, the aim of reducing consumption is also achieved since the caloric intake due to the hot drying air which is taken from the
first drying chamber 14 and which is introduced into thesecond drying chamber 15 allows reducing the electrical power supply of theinfrared lamps 38b present in thesecond drying chamber 15 with a consequent reduction in consumption and related costs. -
