Description

Jusqu'a présent les farines utilisées pour réaliser des soupes distribuées dans les élevages d'animaux, notamment de porcs, sont préalablement granulées; les granulés sont ensuite concassés en miettes qui sont alors dispersées dans l'eau pour former la soupe.Up to now, the flours used to make soups distributed in animal farms, in particular pigs, have been granulated beforehand; the granules are then crushed into crumbs which are then dispersed in water to form the soup.

Le passage par le stade de granulés est à l'heure actuelle nécessaire pour des raisons d'écoulement.The passage through the pellet stage is currently necessary for flow reasons.

La présente invention a pour objet un appareil pour le conditionnement de la farine grâce auquel on obtient une farine s'écoulant sans difficultés, ce qui permet de supprimer la formation de granulés, et qui en outre est plus digestive et plus soluble dans l'eau.The subject of the present invention is an apparatus for conditioning flour, by means of which a flour flowing without difficulty is obtained, which makes it possible to suppress the formation of granules, and which moreover is more digestive and more soluble in water. .

Cet appareil est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend une enceinte dont l'axe est incliné d'un angle compris entre 10 à 45" par rapport au plan horizontal, qui comporte une ouverture d'admission à son extrémité supérieure et une ouverture de sortie à son extrémité inférieure et qui porte des injecteurs de vapeur et/ou de mélasse, des moyens pour chauffer extérieurement l'enceinte, deux rotors à pales disposés dans l'enceinte, et des moyens pour entraîner ces deux rotors en rotation dans des sens inverses.This device is characterized in that it comprises an enclosure whose axis is inclined at an angle between 10 to 45 "relative to the horizontal plane, which has an inlet opening at its upper end and an outlet opening at its lower end and which carries steam and / or molasses injectors, means for externally heating the enclosure, two paddle rotors arranged in the enclosure, and means for driving these two rotors in rotation in opposite directions .

En fonctionnement, la farine s 'écoule en continu par gravité dans l'enceinte, est brassée et homogéinéisée par les pales des rotors et est traitée thermiquement par les calories fournies à l'enceinte ainsi que par la vapeur et/ou la mélasse introduite dans celle-ci.In operation, the flour flows continuously by gravity into the enclosure, is stirred and homogenized by the rotor blades and is heat treated by the calories supplied to the enclosure as well as by the steam and / or molasses introduced into this one.

La durée de traitement est constante pour un débit donné.The processing time is constant for a given flow.

On obtient une farine qui est exempte de fines donc qui s'écoule facilement; il y a ainsi moins de problèmes de manutention et de stockage, moins de rétention dans les trémies et les conduits, ce qui facilite le nettoyage des équipements. De plus, elle se disperse très facilement dans l'eau. L'énergie est économisée, l'humidité est contrôlée et les salmonelles sont éliminées.A flour is obtained which is free from fines and which therefore flows easily; there are thus fewer handling and storage problems, less retention in the hoppers and conduits, which facilitates cleaning of the equipment. In addition, it disperses very easily in water. Energy is saved, humidity is controlled and salmonella is eliminated.

Tous les mélanges sont possibles, ce qui permet de réaliser des formules ayant d'excellentes qualités nutritionnelles.All mixes are possible, which allows formulations with excellent nutritional qualities.

On peut également utiliser l'appareil pour le traitement thermique de graines entières.The apparatus can also be used for heat treatment of whole seeds.

Les injecteurs sont, de préférence, disposés dans le plan vertical équidistant des axes des deux rotors.The injectors are preferably arranged in the vertical plane equidistant from the axes of the two rotors.

On a décrit ci-après, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, un mode de réalisation de l'appareil selon l'invention avec référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels
La Figure 1 est une vue en élévation latérale
de l'appareil;
La Figure 2 en est une vue en coupe transversale;
La Figure 3 en est une vue de dessus;
La Figure 4 en est une vue de face.An embodiment of the apparatus according to the invention has been described below, by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the appended drawings in which
Figure 1 is a side elevation view
of the device;
Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view;
Figure 3 is a top view;
Figure 4 is a front view.

Tel qu'il est représenté aux dessins, le conditionneur de farine comprend un corps 1 délimité par deux parois séparées l'une de l'autre par un calorifuge 2. Ce corps est formé de deux cylindres dont l'entraxe est légèrement inférieur à leur diamètre de sorte qu'ils se coupent; son axe est incliné par rapport à l'horizontale d'un axe compris entre 10 et 450. As shown in the drawings, the flour conditioner comprises a body 1 delimited by two walls separated from each other by an insulating material 2. This body is formed by two cylinders whose spacing is slightly less than their diameter so that they intersect; its axis is inclined relative to the horizontal of an axis between 10 and 450.

Le corps 1 comporte des portes de visite 3; il est fermé par un flasque supérieur 4 et un flasque inférieur 5. Ces flasques supportent des paliers tels que 6 pour deux rotors constitués chacun par un arbre 7 qui est coaxial à l'un des cylindres du corps 1 et sur lequel sont fixées des pales à inclinaison réglable 8; étant donné l'écart relatif des cylindres du corps, les pales 8 des deux rotors s'interpénètrent comme on le voit à la Figure 2. L'arbre 7 de chacun des deux rotors est relié par un réducteur 9 à un moteur d'entraînement 10; les deux moteurs tournent en sens inverse et leurs arbres de sortie sont reliés à un dispositif à engrenages 6 assurant une rotation synchronisée des deux rotors. Une transmission par poulies-courroies 11 permet d'adapter la vitesse de rotation des rotors en fonction des paramètres propres à l'application.L'ensemble des moyens d'entraînement est porté par une ossature 12 fixée au flasque supérieur 4.The body 1 has inspection doors 3; it is closed by an upper flange 4 and a lower flange 5. These flanges support bearings such as 6 for two rotors each consisting of a shaft 7 which is coaxial with one of the cylinders of the body 1 and on which blades are fixed with adjustable inclination 8; given the relative distance of the cylinders from the body, the blades 8 of the two rotors interpenetrate as shown in Figure 2. The shaft 7 of each of the two rotors is connected by a reduction gear 9 to a drive motor 10; the two motors rotate in opposite directions and their output shafts are connected to a gear device 6 ensuring a synchronized rotation of the two rotors. A transmission by pulleys-belts 11 makes it possible to adapt the rotational speed of the rotors as a function of the parameters specific to the application. All of the drive means are carried by a frame 12 fixed to the upper flange 4.

Dans la portion d'extrémité supérieure du corps 1 débouche un conduit d'admission 13 de section carrée et d'axe vertical. Au-dessus de ce conduit se trouvent une trémie tampon 14 et une vanne de réglage 15. La portion d'extrémité inférieure du corps 1 présente une ouverture de sortie 16 qui peut être plus ou moins obturée par un volet 17 piloté par un moto-réducteur 18 ou autre système (vérin électrique, servo-moteur, positionneur électro-pneumatique, etc...).In the upper end portion of the body 1 opens an intake duct 13 of square section and vertical axis. Above this duct are a buffer hopper 14 and an adjustment valve 15. The lower end portion of the body 1 has an outlet opening 16 which can be more or less closed by a shutter 17 controlled by a motorized reducer 18 or other system (electric actuator, servo motor, electro-pneumatic positioner, etc.).

La partie inférieure du corps 1 est équipée d'échangeurs tubulaires 19. Par ailleurs, dans sa partie supérieure, débouchent une série d'injecteurs de vapeur 20 reliés à une source de vapeur par des vannes 21 ainsi qu'une rampe d'injection 22 pour l'introduction dans le corps 1 par pulvérisation de substances liquides auxiliaires telles par exemple des mélasses. Les injecteurs 20 et la rampe 22 se trouvent dans un plan vertical équidistant des deux axes 7.The lower part of the body 1 is fitted with tubular exchangers 19. In addition, in its upper part, there are a series of steam injectors 20 connected to a steam source by valves 21 as well as an injection rail 22 for the introduction into the body 1 by spraying of auxiliary liquid substances such as for example molasses. The injectors 20 and the ramp 22 are in a vertical plane equidistant from the two axes 7.

Des sondes de température 23 permettent de connaître à tout instant l'évolution de la température de la farine.Temperature sensors 23 make it possible to know at all times the evolution of the temperature of the flour.

En fonctionnement, la farine est introduite dans le corps 1 par la trémie 14 et le conduit 13. Elle s'écoule par gravité dans le corps, est brassée par les rotors 7-8 et est évacuée par l'ouverture de sortie 16, son débit étant contrôlé par le volet 17. Pendant son passage dans le corps, elle est d'une part chauffée par la partie inférieure de ce corps grâce aux échangeurs 19 et d'autre part traitée thermiquement par la vapeur introduite par les injecteurs 2a; elle est enfin mélangée aux substances introduites par la rampe 22. Les sondes de température 23 contrôlent en particulier la position du volet de réglage 17 et celle des vannes 21.In operation, the flour is introduced into the body 1 through the hopper 14 and the conduit 13. It flows by gravity into the body, is stirred by the rotors 7-8 and is discharged through the outlet opening 16, its flow being controlled by the flap 17. During its passage through the body, it is on the one hand heated by the lower part of this body thanks to the exchangers 19 and on the other hand heat treated by the steam introduced by the injectors 2a; it is finally mixed with the substances introduced by the ramp 22. The temperature probes 23 control in particular the position of the adjustment flap 17 and that of the valves 21.

I1 va de soi que la présente invention ne doit pas être considérée comme limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et représenté mais en couvre, au contraire, toutes les variantes. L'appareil pourrait notamment être utilisé pour le traitement thermique de graines entières.  It goes without saying that the present invention should not be considered as limited to the embodiment described and shown but, on the contrary, covers all variants thereof. The apparatus could in particular be used for the heat treatment of whole seeds.
