Description

MACHINE POUR L'EGOUTTAGE ET LA SEPARATION
SIMULTANES D'ARTICLES EN VRAC
La présente invention a pour objet une machine pour I'égouttage et la séparation simultanes d'articules en vrac.DRIPPING AND SEPARATION MACHINE
SIMULTANEOUS BULK ITEMS
The subject of the present invention is a machine for the simultaneous draining and separation of articulations.

Elle est surtout destinee à l'industrie des produits alimentaires et en particulier à celles des fruits confits, mais peut s'appliquer à d'autres secteurs dacitivites.  It is mainly intended for the food industry and in particular for the candied fruit industry, but can be applied to other sectors of activity.

Dans de nombreux domaines, des articles en vrac sont traités par immersion ou aspersion avec des liquides plus ou moins visqueux et doivent être égouttés et séparés. Ces opérations se font en général successivement, ce qui entraîne une perte de temps inutile et des manipulations supplémentaires, et lorsque le ou les liquides utilisés pour le traitement est à la fois visqueux et collant, comme c'est le cas pour les fruits confits, il n1 existe à notre connaissance aucun système assurant une separation parfaite. In many areas, loose items are treated by immersion or sprinkling with more or less viscous liquids and must be drained and separated. These operations are generally carried out successively, which leads to an unnecessary waste of time and additional handling, and when the liquid or liquids used for the treatment are both viscous and sticky, as is the case with candied fruit, To our knowledge, there is no system ensuring perfect separation.

Le dispositif selon la présente invention supprime tous ces inconvénients. En effet, il permet d'obtenir en une seule opération, et sans interventions manuelles, un égouttage, une séparation complète de produits agglutines. The device according to the present invention eliminates all these drawbacks. Indeed, it makes it possible to obtain in a single operation, and without manual interventions, a draining, a complete separation of agglutinates products.

I1 est constitué par la combinaison d'au moins deux transporteurs sans fin disposés en cascade Il un en dessous de l'autre, de manière à ce que les articles arrivant à l1extrémité de l'un des transporteurs tombent sur le suivant, ces transporteurs successifs, de plus en plus larges et animés de vitesses croissantes, étant constitués de fils parallèles passant dans des gorges circulaires de deux tambours à axes horizontaux parallèles, lesdites gorges ayant, sur un même tambour, des diamètres différents et étant disposées de façon que les fils forment des "canaux" en forme de V ou de U, le fona de l'un des "canaus=" d'un transporteur correspondant au fil séparant deux "canaux" du suivant. I1 is constituted by the combination of at least two endless conveyors arranged in cascade II one below the other, so that the articles arriving at the end of one of the carriers fall on the next, these successive carriers , becoming wider and moving at increasing speeds, being made up of parallel wires passing through circular grooves of two drums with parallel horizontal axes, said grooves having, on the same drum, different diameters and being arranged so that the wires form "channels" in the form of V or U, the fona of one of the "canaus =" of a conveyor corresponding to the wire separating two "channels" of the following.

Sur les dessins schématiques annexés, donnés à titre d'exemple non limitatif d'une des formes de réalisation de ltobjet de l'invention
La figure 1 représente le dispositif vu de dessus.In the attached schematic drawings, given by way of nonlimiting example of one of the embodiments of the object of the invention
Figure 1 shows the device seen from above.

La figure 2 est une coupe verticale longitudinale du dispositif, suivant la flèche A de la figure 1. FIG. 2 is a longitudinal vertical section of the device, along arrow A of FIG. 1.

La figure 3 montre le système d'entraînement à vitesses croissantes des transporteurs, vu suivant les flèches B-B de la figure 1. FIG. 3 shows the drive system with increasing speeds of the carriers, seen according to the arrows B-B of FIG. 1.

La figure 4 est une coupe transversale verticale agrandie d'un transporteur, suivant les flèches
C-C de la figure 1, montrant la disposition des gorges d'un tambour ainsi que des fils.Figure 4 is an enlarged vertical cross section of a conveyor, along the arrows
CC of Figure 1, showing the arrangement of the grooves of a drum and the wires.

Le dispositif, figures 1 à 4, est constitué de trois transporteurs continus 1, 2, 3 à fils. The device, Figures 1 to 4, consists of three continuous conveyors 1, 2, 3 with wires.

Chacun des transporteurs comporte deux tambours 1 1", 2', 2", 3', 3" pourvus de gorges 4, 5 dans lesquelles passent des fils 6 parallèles formant des boucles autour des deux tambours. L'un des deux tambours est mu par un système d'entraînement et entraîne à son tour les fils. Each of the conveyors comprises two drums 1 1 ", 2 ', 2", 3', 3 "provided with grooves 4, 5 in which pass parallel wires 6 forming loops around the two drums. One of the two drums is mu by a drive system and in turn drives the wires.

Les transporteurs sont disposés l'un à la suite des autres chacun au-dessous du précédent, de telle sorte que les articles tombant au début du premier, d'une trémie 7 par exemple, soient successivement conduites jusqu'à la fin du troisième, en se déplaçant suivant les flèches 8 et en parcourant toute la longueur de chaque transporteur. The conveyors are arranged one after the other, each below the preceding one, so that the articles falling at the start of the first, from a hopper 7 for example, are successively led until the end of the third, by moving along the arrows 8 and traveling the entire length of each conveyor.

Les fils 6 se déplacent à des vitesses croissantes en passant d'un transporteur au suivant, grâce à un système d'entraînement composé d'un moteur 9 et d'une succession de courroies 10 et de poulies ll de diamètres appropriés, la vitesse des fils de chaque transporteur est supérieure de 25 à 30 % à celle du précédent. The wires 6 move at increasing speeds from one conveyor to the next, thanks to a drive system composed of a motor 9 and a succession of belts 10 and pulleys ll of appropriate diameters, the speed of the son of each carrier is 25 to 30% higher than the previous one.

Les gorges 4 et 5 de chaque tambour ont des diamètres différents. En partant de l1extrémité de l'un des tambours et en allant vers l'autre, on rencontre une gorge de fort diamètre 4, une ou plusieurs gorges de faible diamètre 5, puis à nouveau une gorge de fort diamètre 5, et ainsi de suite, de manière à ce que les fils 6 parallèles forment des "canaux" en V ou en U. Les transporteurs sont disposés de façon à ce que le fond de chaque canal, formé par le ou les fils passant dans les gorges de faible diamètre 4 corresponde au fil passant dans une gorge de fort diamètre 5 séparant deux "canaux du transporteur suivant. Ainsi les articles agglutinés cheminant dans un "canal" tomberont sur un fil plus haut que ses voisins et seront séparés les uns des autres. Afin d'éviter des pertes, les transporteurs successifs sont de plus en plus larges. The grooves 4 and 5 of each drum have different diameters. Starting from the end of one of the drums and going towards the other, there is a groove of large diameter 4, one or more grooves of small diameter 5, then again a groove of large diameter 5, and so on. , so that the parallel wires 6 form "V" or "U" channels. The conveyors are arranged so that the bottom of each channel, formed by the wire or wires passing through the small diameter grooves 4 corresponds to the wire passing through a large diameter groove 5 separating two "channels of the next conveyor. Thus the agglutinated articles traveling in a" channel "will fall on a wire higher than its neighbors and will be separated from each other. In order to avoid losses, the successive carriers are becoming wider.

L'écartement des fils 6 est évidemment fonction de la dimension des articles à traiter. Pour favoriser un bon égouttage, cet écartement sera le plus important possible. The spacing of the wires 6 is obviously a function of the size of the articles to be treated. To promote good drainage, this spacing will be as large as possible.

Le positionnement des divers éléments constitutifs donne à ltobjet de l'invention un maximum d'effets utiles qui n1 avaient pas été, à ce jour, obtenus par des dispositifs similaires.  The positioning of the various constituent elements gives the object of the invention a maximum of useful effects which had not, to date, been obtained by similar devices.
