Description

Technical field

The invention relates to the field of grinding and crushing in roller mills for the disposal of gunpowder and solid rocket propellants (TRT) rocket technology on a ballistic basis, for their subsequent processing into powder explosive mixtures (PVA) or in order to obtain fuel for boiler rooms.

State of the art

Currently, a sufficient number of methods for the disposal or destruction of gunpowder and TRT have been developed and tested in practice.

A known method of eliminating the bonded charges of TRT with detachable bottoms (patent RU 2165591, published on 04/20/2001) The essence of this method is that the elimination of the charge of TRT, bonded to the body with a detachable bottom, is carried out by cutting it with a jet of water under pressure. First, the bottom is separated, then the body with the TPT charge is mounted on a special device and rotated. In the process of rotation, the charge of the TRT is ground with a stream of water by moving the grinding head at the open end of the charge. During the grinding of the TPT charge, the grinding head is rotated so that its cutting end is parallel to the inner surface of the body, and moved along this surface, removing the remains of the TPT. The resulting wet charge charge TRT is used as components for the manufacture of powder explosive mixtures (PVA) or destroyed by burning in an environmentally friendly furnace.

This method is carried out by a device known from the same patent, comprising a source of high pressure water, drive devices for rotating the housing with a charge of TRT and supplying water from the high pressure source to the body of the product, a waste water treatment unit, and a control system. The main elements of the device are the drive of rotation of the product and axially movable, with the possibility of changing the position of the cutting end, a grinding head having a channel inside for supplying water under pressure to the TRT charge cutoff.

The disadvantages of this method and device are:

- the need for special equipment that provides high-pressure water supply;

- the complexity of the technology for the elimination of charges TRT, which consists in performing a sufficiently large number of operations (rotation of products, movement and rotation of the grinding head, etc.);

- high energy intensity of the process.

There is also known a method of eliminating charges TRT (patent RU 2143660, publ. 12/27/1999). The essence of this method lies in the fact that the charge TPT, bonded to the housing with an inseparable bottom, is installed on the rotation device and during the rotation the pre-nozzle part of the housing is separated. Then, using the hydraulic cutting unit, the TRT charge is cut into parts in the form of wheels and then the fraction of the charge under the cut out ring of the body is crushed into crumbs. The resulting crumb of the charge, together with the water generated after the hydraulic cutting, is either used as components for the manufacture of PVA or burned in a furnace.

The disadvantages of this method are:

- the need for complex and expensive equipment for high pressure water supply;

- low profitability and durability of the elements of the mechanisms of hydraulic cutting compared to mechanical cutting tools;

- the inability, using the hydraulic cutting method, to obtain the bulk of the TRT fractions with the specified geometric parameters necessary for the production of PVA;

- high energy intensity of the process of destruction of charges TRT by the method of hydraulic cutting.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention allows to solve the problem of safe and efficient disposal of TPT checkers, while the disposal of TPT checkers by the proposed method does not generate waste.

The problem is solved due to the fact that in the method of crushing crumbs of solid rocket fuel checkers (TPT) according to the invention, first the TPT checker intended for grinding is placed on a cutting machine containing a frame made of metal sheets to form a bath for water, at the same time, the checker is placed in the axial feed mechanism, which is made in the form of a conveyor belt, consisting of an endless belt rotating around two rolls, one of which is driven, while the tape is perpendicular to the direction the movement of it at regular intervals, fix inverted U-shaped profiled elements, with horizontal shelves bent on each side of the inside of the profile, with the formation of a central channel between them and at least two inverted T-shaped spring-loaded clamps are moved along it for fixing between them at least one piece, each of the horizontal shelves of the clamp is gear and can be moved relative to the corresponding horizontal shelf of the inverted U-shaped element one, also made of gear, for the possibility of rigid fixation of the clamps along the width of the tape, depending on the diameter of the checker; immerse the checker partially or completely in water, then turn on the drives and begin axial flow of the TPT checker into the cutting zone, where it is cut with a set of saws combined in a multi-saw block, partially or completely placed in the water bath, parallel to each other with gaps between them, cutting the TRT checker simultaneously into several plates, and sawn in such a way that the central cut passed strictly in the middle of the checker, and the next cuts on the left and right, respectively, passed no closer than 1 mm from the central channel, while they control the feed speed of the checker by the axial feed mechanism, the rotation speed of the saws in the multi-saw block, using the tracking unit, in addition, during the cutting of the TPT checkers on the plates, after passing the front of the checker through the multi-saw block in front, put a stopper in its sawn central channel, made in the form of a channel to provide support for the overhanging part of the sawn plates located on top and excluding their cantilever overhang, leading to cracking of the not yet sawn part of the checker, and remove this cork after completion During the process of sawing the checkers into plates, to which water is supplied from the tube with nozzles, through which it enters the water bath with the possibility of subsidence of the chips generated as a result of sawing in the basket, water is pumped through the mesh walls of the basket and directly from the bath through the nozzle to the pumping unit water into the tanks of preliminary and final purification, with a strainer of water purification placed inside each of them, moreover, the tanks are connected in series, I supply the preliminary tank with two inlet openings There is one outlet and one final cleaning tank with two inlets and one outlet, in addition to the main pipeline, the first inlet of the pre-treatment tank is connected, and through its outlet with the inlet of the final cleaning tank and then through the first outlet with the pump unit , for the subsequent supply of purified water to the tube with nozzles, the tanks are connected by an additional return pipe connecting the second outlet of the final tank to the second inlet m opening the pre-filter tank, in addition, in the pre-filter tank before and after the strainer, respectively, the first and second sensors-analyzers of passing water are installed, and in the final tank - a third sensor-analyzer installed after the filter has passed through the water, the control signal from the third sensor enters the valves installed on each of the outlet openings of the final cleaning tank, depending on the degree of water treatment, in addition, in case of unsatisfactory water treatment s, the control signal from the third sensor is fed to the first sensor, which, in turn, supplies a control signal to the corresponding valves installed on the inlet openings of the pre-treatment tank, as a result of which the valve connecting the additional pipe to the tank goes into the “open” position and the valve connecting the tank to the main pipeline is in the “closed” position, after passing the treatment, the water, using the pump unit, enters the tube with nozzles again; after cutting the checkers into plates, the latter are fed for grinding into the gap irrigated with water between two rolls equipped with a set of sharpened pins located on the outer cylindrical surface of the rolls, then the TRT crumbs are collected and used for the production of powder explosive mixtures or for destruction.

Preferably, the plates are cut with a thickness of 5 ÷ 25 mm, while the height of the plates is equal to the height of the pieces at the cut, and the length is equal to the length of the pieces.

The speed of longitudinal feed of the checkers is 60 ÷ 600 mm / min, and the linear speed of the saw teeth in the cutting zone is from 20 ÷ 600 m / min.

The rolls for grinding the plates rotate at a speed of 10 ÷ 100 rpm

The essence of the method of grinding checkers TRT (figure 1) is to change their quality condition. From the whole TPT checker 1, first a sawn checker 2 is obtained, consisting of plates 3, and then the TPT 4 chips.

The cutting device is made in the form of a machine for cutting checkers TRT (figure 2), including a frame 5 in the form of a welded structure, on which are placed mechanisms that facilitate the implementation of the proposed method of grinding checkers TRT 1. Metal sheets of frame 5 form a bath 6 for water. In the upper part of the frame 5 there is a multi-saw block 7 located on the shaft 13 of the drive 12. The multi-saw block 7 is formed by at least one set of circular or other (for example, longitudinal, transverse, etc.) saws, in the amount of 5 to 20 pieces, partially or partially completely in the bath 6 for water parallel to each other with gaps between the saws from 3 to 25 mm.

The indicated numerical ranges of the number of saws, as well as the values of the gaps between them, are optimal for performing the operations of cutting the checker in one pass through the multi-saw block 7, since it is possible to pass the checker of large diameter (up to 300 mm or more) and the possibility of obtaining plates of 3 optimal sizes in thickness . The same reasons explain the speed of longitudinal feed of the pieces into the cutting zone, which is 60–600 mm / min, as well as the linear speed of the saw teeth 20–600 m / min. In addition, these ranges were selected based on the conditions of non-destruction of the plates or their cracking when sawing blocks.

The speed of rotation of the saws in the multi-saw block, as well as the feed speed of the checker by the axial feed mechanism, is controlled by a tracking unit consisting of a first sensor that controls the speed of the axial feed mechanism, a second sensor that controls the speed of rotation of the multi-saw block, which is directly dependent on the speed of the checker . In some embodiments, the distance between the saws can be adjusted using a device for automatically correcting the gap between the saws (not shown), made in the form of a shaft of telescopic couplings located between adjacent saws in the set, depending on the diameter of the checker, also set depending on checker feed speeds and rotational speeds of the multi-saw block itself, as well as based on the dimensions of the central channel of the TRT checker. In this case, the distance between the saws is regulated by the input signal from the second sensor in series or in parallel to the displacement sensors located on each coupling.

Above the multi-saw block is a tube 14 with nozzles for supplying water to the cutting zone of the machine. In the front of the frame 5 is located the mechanism 10 of the axial feed checkers TPT 1 for cutting, the operation of which is provided by the drive 11.

The axial feed mechanism (not shown in the drawings) is performed in the form of a conveyor belt consisting of an endless belt rotating around two rolls, one of which is driven. On the tape, perpendicular to the direction of its movement, at equal intervals, fix inverted U-shaped profiled elements, with horizontal shelves bent on each side inward of the profile, with the formation of a central channel between them and move at least two inverted T-shaped spring-loaded clamps for fixing between them at least one piece. Each of the horizontal shelves of the clamp is toothed, and with the possibility of moving relative to the corresponding horizontal shelf of an inverted U-shaped element, also made of toothed, for the possibility of rigid fixation of the clamps along the width of the tape depending on the diameter of the checker.

Checker TRT 1 during cutting is fixed from lateral movements with the input die 15 located in front of the multi-saw block 7 and the output die 16 located behind the multi-saw block 7. Behind the multi-saw block 7, behind the output die 16 there is a comb 11 designed for free passage of plates TPT 3 and preventing their tilting during removal from the machine, as in the event of an accidental rotation of the plate 3 can be caught by the teeth of the saws and pulled into the gap between the saws, which can lead to overload of the machine and its emergency stop application. In front of the comb 11, in the central channel 9 of the TPT checker 1, there is a plug 8, which provides support for the overhanging part of the TPT 3 sawn plates located on top and prevents their cantilever freezing, leading to cracking of the yet not sawed part of the TPT checker 1. The stopper 8 is made in the form of the central channel of the checker 9 TPT 1 and made of plastic or other material (for example, polyethylene, polypropylene, etc.). In the lower part of the frame 5 in the bath 6 for water there is a basket 18 for the extraction of chips formed during cutting of the TPT checker 1. The basket 18 is made of sheet metal and has two mesh walls for passing water. To drain the water from the bath 6 into the circulation system, a nozzle 19 is used. After cutting the drafts into the plates, the latter are fed to the water-irrigated gap between two rollers equipped with a set of sharpened pins (roll design not shown in the drawings) located on the outer cylindrical surface rolls, then collect the TRT chips and use it for the production of powder explosive mixtures or for destruction.

Figure 3 characterizes the closed process of using the working fluid in the machine for cutting checkers TRT. The water circulation system of the machine for cutting checkers TRT consists of a pipe 14 with nozzles, a bath 6 for water, a basket 18 for collecting chips of TPT, a pumping unit 20 for taking water from a bath 6 for the machine, tanks 22 with a strainer 23 for cleaning water and a tap located inside 21 sequential switching of water purification filters.

Moreover, the tanks 22 are made of two types - preliminary and final cleaning, with the strainer of water purification placed inside each of them. The tanks are connected in series. The pre-treatment tank is provided with two inlets and one outlet, and the final tank is provided with two inlets and one outlet, while in addition to the main pipeline, the first inlet of the pre-treatment tank is connected and through its outlet with the inlet of the final tank and further, by means of a first outlet with a pump unit, for the subsequent supply of purified water to the tube with nozzles. In addition, the tanks are connected by an additional return pipe connecting the second outlet of the final tank to the second inlet of the preliminary tank. In the preliminary tank before and after the strainer 23, respectively, the first and second sensors-analyzers (not shown) of the passing water are installed, and in the final tank - the third sensor-analyzer (not shown), installed after the water has passed strainer 23.

The control signal from the third sensor is supplied to the valves (not shown in the drawings) installed on each of the outlet openings of the final cleaning tank, depending on the degree of water purification. In addition, in case of unsatisfactory water purification, the control signal from the third sensor is supplied to the first sensor, which, in turn, supplies the control signal to the corresponding valves installed on the inlet openings of the pre-treatment tank, as a result of which the valve connecting the additional pipeline to the tank, switches to the "open" position, and the valve connecting the tank to the main pipeline - to the "closed" position.

The technological complex implements the proposed method of grinding checkers TRT as follows.

The TRT checker 1, intended for grinding, is placed on the cutting machine and is pushed by the pusher (not shown) of the axial feed mechanism 10. The drives 11 and 12 are turned on, and the axial feed of the TPT checker 1 into the cutting zone and the saw blades 7 rotate . In the cutting zone, the TPT checker 1 is cut into plates 3. The inlet 15 and output 16 of the die and comb 11 prevent the transverse movement of the TPT checker 1 and its TPT plates 3. The water coming from the tube 14 with nozzles gets onto the plates 3 and through them in bath 6 for water. The chips generated during cutting of the TPT checker 1 are deposited in the basket 18. Water is pumped through the mesh walls of the basket 18 and directly from the water bath 6 through the pipe 19 to the water purification filter tank 22. From there, water through a mesh filter 23 of water purification enters the bathtub of the machine and, with the help of a pumping unit, enters again into the tube 14 with nozzles. After cutting the pieces into plates, the latter are fed for grinding into a gap irrigated with water between two rolls equipped with a set of sharpened pins located on the outer cylindrical surface of the rolls, then the TRT crumbs are collected and used for the production of powder explosive mixtures or for destruction. Using a system of two filters in a filter unit allows them to be cleaned without stopping the machine for cutting powder drafts by successive switching of filters with a crane.

Tests of the proposed method for grinding TPT checkers and the technological complex for its implementation were carried out with the disposal of single-channel checkers made of ballistic TPT brand RSI-12K. The cross-sectional shape of the checker is a segment, the weight of one checker is about 10 kg. Using a machine for cutting checkers TRT, plates TPT were obtained with a thickness of 7-10 mm along the length of the checkers. Then, by crushing, a fraction of 10 × 15 × 20 mm was obtained. The productivity of the machine was about 200 kg / h.
