Definitions

  • the invention refers to an arrangement for supporting a rotary drum, in particular a rotary kiln of a cement manufacturing installation, said rotary drum having at least three riding rings distributedly arranged along the axial direction of the rotary drum, the arrangement comprising a pair of relatively spaced rollers for supporting a riding ring, at least one bearing for each roller, a support for each bearing mounted for movement of the roller toward and away from the shell of the rotary drum and spring means exerting a spring force acting on the support so as to counteract the weight of the rotary drum resting on the rollers.
  • rotary drums such as rotary dryers, tube mills, drum sieves and particularly rotary kilns are commonly supported by roller supports.
  • the rotary drums usually are provided with two or more ring-like members known as track rings or riding rings, which are secured to the outer circumference of the drum body. Each riding ring rests upon a pair of the rollers.
  • These rollers are each rotatably supported in at least one bearing, which is mounted on solid foundations.
  • cranks are straightness deviations of the drum that can be so strong, that the riding ring of the drum lifts from the support rollers once per revolution. Further, cranks lead to a cyclic overload of the support rollers and the riding ring.
  • the cranks are typically caused by uneven temperature or overheating of the drum shell. Uneven temperatures in the drum shell can occur regularly, depending on the uniformity of kiln operation.
  • the load on the rollers may increase to a multiple of the normal load for which the rollers are designed.
  • Such loads result in localized contact pressures between the riding ring and the rollers, which cause severe damage to the riding rings and the rollers. Because of the unequal distribution of the load on the rollers, a total breakdown or collapse of the rollers may result.
  • the drums may be supported pivotally in bearings to compensate for axial misalignment, and the bearings may be resiliently supported to compensate for misalignment in the vertical and/or horizontal plane.
  • a housing for each bearing of the rollers may be supported directly or indirectly by a hydraulic cylinder or a flexible cushion. More particularly, the housing may be supported on a rocker pivoting about an axis substantially parallel to the axis of the drum.
  • a further disadvantage of prior art supporting arrangements is that the spring means, such as hydraulic cylinders, are difficult to arrange in the region below the rollers because of the limited space available. This problem is particularly relevant when spring means are to be retrofitted in existing installations.
  • the invention in an arrangement of the initially defined kind essentially consists in that the spring means comprise a pressure vessel charged with a compressed gas that exerts the spring force.
  • the spring force counteracting the weight of the rotary drum resting on the rollers is not provided exclusively by a pressurized liquid fluid, such as a hydraulic oil of a cylinder-piston unit, but comprises the effects of a compressed gas cushion.
  • a pressurized liquid fluid such as a hydraulic oil of a cylinder-piston unit
  • an optimization of the spring characteristics may be achieved, resulting in that the spring force does not considerably increase as a function of the displacement path of the rollers.
  • an additional advantage of the embodiment according to the invention is that the pressure of the compressed gas contained in the pressure vessel can easily be adjusted to the optimal level, in which the rollers are taking up the nominal design load of the rotary drum, without substantially changing the spring characteristics of the spring means.
  • the pressure vessel must not necessarily be arranged in the region below the rollers, but may be arranged beside the supporting structure so that retrofitting of existing installations is easily feasible without substantially increasing the vertical space needed below the rollers.
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the support is mounted for pivotal movement about a pivot axis like a hinge.
  • the spring means are preferably arranged to act on the support at a distance from the pivot axis of the support that is larger than the distance of the roller from the pivot axis. In this way, a larger lever arm is effective for the spring means than for the supporting rollers so that the spring means may be operated at a lower pressure level in the pressure vessel.
  • Pivotal mounting of the support has considerable advantages over a sliding mounting of the support in a lateral direction.
  • a sliding arrangement of the support results in higher frictional forces and the forth-and-back motion of the support does not behave in direct proportionality to the forces acting on the rollers, but a hysteresis is to be observed.
  • the combination of a pivotal mounting of the support with an air cushion as the spring means results that the rollers follow the riding ring track in a very precise, direct and frictionless manner.
  • the fluid system comprising the compressed medium is preferably divided into two separate fluid volumes, one fluid volume being arranged below the support of the roller bearings and the other fluid volume being arranged in the pressure vessel. In this way, only part of the total compressed fluid volume is arranged below the support of the roller bearings so that account is taken of the limited vertical space there.
  • the spring means comprise a fluid chamber designed so as to change its volume upon movement of the roller under the weight of the rotary drum resting on the rollers, wherein said chamber is fluidly connected to the pressure vessel by means of a fluid line.
  • a pressure vessel may be used for exerting a spring force on only one bearing support or on two or more bearing supports.
  • the spring means of each bearing support may comprise its own pressure vessel.
  • the spring means associated to two bearings belonging to the same roller may share a common pressure vessel.
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention is devised such that two bearings are provided for each roller and that each of the two bearings has a support, wherein a fluid chamber is assigned to each of the two supports, wherein the two chambers are fluidly connected to the common pressure vessel by means of a fluid line each.
  • no fluid chambers of other supports than the supports of said two bearings are fluidly connected to said common pressure vessel.
  • the spring means associated to all bearings of the pair of rollers supporting a riding ring may share a common pressure vessel.
  • the fluid chamber comprises an elastically deformable shell, and is preferably designed as an air-suspension bellow or a flexible cushion.
  • a fluid chamber that is preferably arranged below the roller bearing support does not only allow a vertical compensational movement of the roller, but may also a allow a horizontal flexibility so as to absorb thermal expansion of the support.
  • the invention may work with pressurized fluid systems.
  • the spring means are designed as a pneumatic spring.
  • the spring force acting on the support is directly exerted by the pressurized gas.
  • the fluid chamber and the pressure vessel are filled with compressed gas, in particular compressed air.
  • the fluid chamber, the fluid line and a lower part of the pressure vessel are filled with a liquid, in particular water or hydraulic oil, the remaining, upper vessel volume being filled with compressed gas, in particular compressed air or compressed nitrogen.
  • compressed gas in particular compressed air or compressed nitrogen.
  • the compressed gas is only indirectly exerting the spring force on the roller bearings support, namely via the pressurized liquid, in particular water or hydraulic oil, that is arranged between the compressed gas being present in the pressure vessel and the support.
  • the advantage of this embodiment is the possibility of introducing a leak-stop valve, which can block water exit in case of a leakage of the spring means.
  • the fluid chamber is realized in a cylinder of a hydraulic cylinder-piston unit, wherein the cylinder or the piston is mechanically coupled to the support, and that the fluid chamber of the cylinder is fluidly connected to the pressure vessel, a so-called accumulator.
  • the fluid chamber, the fluid line and a lower part of the accumulator are filled with a liquid, in particular hydraulic oil, the remaining, upper vessel volume being filled with compressed gas, in particular compressed nitrogen.
  • accumulators may be used, such as a bladder accumulator and a piston accumulator.
  • the hydraulic cylinder-piston unit may preferably be coupled to the support by means of a rolling contact, wherein at least one contacting surface at the contact between the hydraulic cylinder-piston unit and the support has a curved configuration.
  • a rolling contact may also be provided between the hydraulic cylinder-piston unit and its foundation, wherein at least one contacting surface at the contact between the hydraulic cylinder-piston unit and its foundation has a curved configuration.
  • the rolling contact preferably takes place via curved swivel plates, which are mounted to the side of the hydraulic cylinder-piston unit contacting the foundation and/or to the side of the hydraulic cylinder-piston unit contacting the bearing support.
  • the swivel plate preferably has a monoaxially, in particular cylindrically, curved contacting surface.
  • two swivel plates are arranged on top of each other, wherein the axis of curvature of the monoaxially curved surface of the first swivel plate and the axis of curvature of the monoaxially curved surface of the second swivel plate are arranged at an angle of 90°.
  • the swivel plates are thus preferably based on the principle of a rocking chair with convex curved surfaces and are able to absorb angular deviations in all directions.
  • the advantage of the above mentioned embodiment is that the cylinder-piston unit is rolling on the surface of the counterpart, i.e. on the bearing support of the rollers and/or on the foundation, instead of sliding for example in a spherical bearing.
  • the required spring characteristics comes from the compressed gas that is arranged in the pressure vessel.
  • a compressor is preferably connected to the pressure vessel for compressing gas contained in the pressure vessel.
  • the pressure of the fluid medium can also be adjusted by adding or removing a certain amount of the liquid fluid in the system.
  • the filing of the oil level may be adjusted by means of a hydraulic unit.
  • the behaviour of the spring means may be adjusted by increasing or reducing the volume of the pressure vessel. Therefore, according to a preferred embodiment, the pressure vessel is fluidly connected to at least one additional pressure vessel by means of a fluid line that is equipped with a shut-off valve. In this way, it is possible to selectively connect or disconnect the volume of the additional pressure vessel to or from the volume of the pressure vessel so as to increase or reduce the total volume that can be filled with compressed gas. For example, enlarging the total volume that can be filled with compressed gas while maintaining the gas pressure allowing for an increased travel path of the rollers without changing the stiffness of the spring means.
  • the inventive roller support is preferably only required for the middle ring(s).
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention is devised such that the rotary drum comprises at least three riding rings and only at least one middle ring arranged between two outer rings is supported by a pair of relatively spaced rollers that are equipped with said spring means comprising a pressure vessel charged with a compressed gas, wherein the pressure in the pressure vessel is adjusted so that the resulting force counteracting the weight of the rotary drum resting on the rollers corresponds to the nominal design load taken up by the rollers supporting the middle ring.
  • the invention provides for the effect that the rollers assigned to the middle ring(s) are substantially constantly contacted by the riding ring.
  • this enables the rollers assigned to the middle ring(s) of the drum to function as the rotary drive for imparting rotational movement to the rotary drum.
  • said middle rollers may be coupled to a drive arrangement, such as a motor, for rotating the rollers, wherein the rotation of the rollers is transferred to the riding ring by the friction occurring between the surface of the rollers and the riding ring.
  • the drum is aligned when the centres of the three or more riding rings are arranged in one straight line. Keeping the centres of all riding rings in one straight line is more easily achieved in an arrangement, where only the middle riding ring(s) of the drum is/are supported by the inventive spring means and the outer riding rings are supported on rigidly supported rollers.
  • a alignment of the centres of the riding rings is achieved by adjusting the height of the rollers that support the middle ring(s) so as to align the centre of the middle ring(s) with the centre of the outer rings.
  • the height adjustment is preferably realized by adjusting the fluid pressure prevailing in the fluid chamber.
  • the centre of the riding ring(s) that is/are supported by the inventive spring means rotates eccentric on an orbit.
  • the centre of said orbit is aligned with the centres of the other riding rings.
  • the arrangement preferably comprises at least one sensor for measuring the vertical position of the riding ring relative to a stationary reference point, such as a foundation.
  • the sensor can also be arranged to measure the vertical position of the drum adjacent the support rollers relative to a stationary reference point, such as a foundation.
  • the sensor can be mounted to the foundation or any other stationary structure around the drum and may be configured as a distance sensor to measure its distance to the outer surface of the riding ring or to the drum near the supports for the rollers.
  • the distance sensor is configured as an ultrasound distance sensor.
  • the sensor is arranged below the riding ring between the rollers of the pair of rollers supporting said riding ring.
  • the sensor is configured to continuously measure the vertical position. Alternatively also the height position of the rollers, or any other part that follows the eccentric movement of the drum, can be measured by a suitable sensor.
  • the height sensors measure a constant change in height. Therefore, in order to obtain the height position of the centre of the orbit, the measured values are preferably sampled and the average is calculated over each full turn of the rotary drum. Said average value is representing the center of the orbit.
  • a control system is preferably provided for maintaining the center height of the orbit at a fixed set point, where the rotary kiln axis is straight.
  • An adjustment of the height may also be required in order to compensate for weight variations of the rotary drum.
  • the drum applies more load to the rollers, whereupon the rotary drum deflects and the center of the roller orbit goes down.
  • the deviation on height is detected by the control system, which is counteracting by increasing the pressure to bring the center height back to the set point.
  • the pressure in the system is preferably increased.
  • the pressure in the system is preferably decreased.
  • the pressure adjustments are preferably done by adding or releasing gas or hydraulic oil, depending on the system.
