Patented Jan. 4, 1921.
Original application liled layl, 1916, Serial No. 95,887. Divided and 1:hi1s a.pp1icetion filed December 27, 195.8. SCI-131N0- 268,550. I
' To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, KARL HJALMAR .VILHELM VON PoRA'r, engineer, subject of the Kin of Sweden, resldin at 4 Viistra weden, have ments in Feeding Devices for Pulverulent Fuel, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to those devices for feeding pulverulent fuel to furnaces, in which the feed is effected by air orygas currents, which are driven or drawn through one or more fuel conduits, extending between a fuel receptacle and the furnace.
An important feature of the invention consists in the fact that the discharge end of the air supply tube or another member is arranged in such a way, that it prevents the powder in the receptacle from falling by gravity into the receiving opening of the fuel pipe, which opening is faced. upward.
Another important feature of the invention consists in the fact that the gaseous medium is caused 'to flow downwardly and outwardlyat the delivering end of said air supply tube before entering into the fuel l nother feature of the invention consists in means for adjusting the receiving end of the fuel pipe to and from the delivering This application is a division of my ap-' plication Serial Number 95387, filedMay 4th, 1916. v
A practical embodiment of the invention is shown in the accompanying drawing in which The figure shows a vertical section of the apparatus.
\.In this apparatus air is drawn in by the draft ofthe furnace through the tube 1,
projectinginto the powder receptacle A.
This-tube is enlarged at its lower end and provided w th a cone 2, which is arranged in such a way that an annular opening is formed, through which the air passes so as toact upon and whirl up the powder which passes through the pipes 3 and 4 into the furnace.
A handle 6 is connected with the pipe 3 and a damper 5, whereby the powder and combustion air feeding devices can be simultaneously opened, closed or adjusted to the desired feeding position.
By lowering or raising the pipe 3 a greater-or less feed is obtained and if the pipe 3 is raised so as to engage the cone 2 the feeding is interrupted.
7 is an air valve which is arranged at the upper end ofthe tube 1 and which is normally held open by the spring 8. The valve 7 acts to partially or fully close the tube 1 at sudden variations in the draft.
Through the opening 9 at the lower end of the pipe 4 air is, sucked in, which will contact with the powder passing through said pipe.
In this embodiment the receiving opening of the fuel pipe 3 is faced upward, but in spite thereof the fuel is prevented from falling bygravity into said opening since the discharge end of the air supply tube 1 is arranged above the fuel receiving opening in such a way that the said opening will be located in the powder free space formed below the cone 2 in the tube 7 when the feed is interrupted. Said space also forms an essential part of the mixing chamand with the tube 1, no air currents will flow through tube 1 into the receptacle.
