BALL HAMMER FOR ROTARY DRIERS Filed Nov. '7, 1951 mmvroks:
ATTORNEX Patented July 21, 1953 Carl A. Arend, Jr., and William' A. Seedorff, -Jr., Carlsbad, N. Mex, assignors to International Minerals & Chemical Corporation, acorporation of New York Application November 7,1951, SerialNo. 255,222 1 This invention relates to improvements in mechanical drying apparatus. More particularly, it relates to an apparatus for drying moist granular materials. Still more partiuclarly, it relates to apparatus for disengagingmaterial from the sides of rotary dryers.
In the past it has been the practice to insert heavy chains inside rotary dryers. Such chains slide about during rotation and scrape the interior of a rotary drum clean.
Another means to accomplish the same result is to attach balls'to a chain secured to the interior of a rotary drum. These balls swing in pendulum style as the drum rotates, thus beating against the drum' at a position approaching 90 from the top.
Still another means for keeping rotary dryers clean are the externally positioned hammers. These have been of two types, those secured to the dryer and actuated by cams in contact with the rotary dryer and those pivotably secured to the rotating drums. The cam-actuated hammers are usually positioned to strike the drum intermediate and usually half way between the highest and lowest vertical point of the drum. The pivotably mounted hammers swing when the point at which the hammer is pivotably secured moved at least into the vicinity of and usually past the top point of rotation of the drum. As a consequence, the hammer strikes the shell at a point in the right first quadrant when the drum is rotating in clockwise direction. I
All of the above systems have the disadvantage that they do not strike the drum or shell at'the most effective point for dislodging material adhering to the interior thereof, namely at the top or highest point reached in the rotationof the v rotary kiln.
Another disadvantage of these systems is that the material, when dislodged, usually is'in such a position in the downward rotationof the shell that the material does notfall freely through the drying gas stream, but merely'slides down the side with only its upper surface in contact with the drying gases.
It is an object of the instant invention to overcome the disadvantages and shortcomings of apparatus heretofore in use.
It is a further object of this invention to provide apparatus to impart the maximum impact to a rotary shell at the point of greatest eifec tiveness, namely the highest point reached in the rotation of the rotary kiln.
It is a still further object to provide simple and closed apparatus which will be free from the Claims. (01. s4 s5 r 2 I elfects of dust and chemicals associated with the operation of rotary kilns. I
It is still another. object of this invention to provide an apparatus in which the time of impactis adjustable to compensate for changes in speed of rotation of, rotary kilns.
- It is still another object to provide apparatus wherein the impact is derived frointhe substantially free fall of a heavy ball.
It is still another object of this apparatus to provide for breaking loose of material fromthe shell at a point providing for the longest possible path for material contact with drying gases,
These and other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following description when read in connection with theaccompanying drawings in which:
Figure l is a side elevational view of a dryer equipped with ball hammers of the instant invention. Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view along the line 2-2 of Figurel andFigure 3 is a crosssectional view of the boot as seen along the line 3-3 ofFigure l. p
Briefly stated, the apparatus of the instant invention comprises a, heavy ball enclosed in a I housing consisting of a hollow head portion and a straight tubular portion with the axis of the tubular portion disposed transverse to the longitudinal axis of the drum and angled from the radial line in a direction opposite to. that of the drum rotation.
This housing is' secured to the exterior of a rotary'material-conVeiying drum. The housing isip'rovided' with the hollow. head angled transverse to the tubular portion of the housing and is adapted to hold the heavy ball in the head thereof until rotation ofthe dryer shell brings the housing to approximately the highest point of rotation, in which position of the housing the ball will be permitted a substantially free fall into .contact with the rotary dryer;
7 This freeefall position is controlled by suitable adjustment means positioned in the head of the housing. When the ball rests incontact with the dryer shell, rotation of ,the dryer downwardly causes I H and 12 with the horizontal axis on'a slight angle to. thevertical for the purpose of assuring the movement of loose material from the upper to the lower end of the drum. At the receiving end of drum I is an opening l3 through which projects a feed chute I4. Drying air passes in parallel flow to material in the drum and is of the induced draft type, although countercurrent air flow is equally applicable. A fan l5 sucks hot gas, which is a combination of air and combustion gases, through the dryer. At the discharge end of drum II], the drum projects through one wall of a chamber I6 in which the drum turns freely. Dried material is delivered to a discharge hopper l1 and passes to a suitable packaging station not shown.
Housing units may be fabricated from hollow members of round, square or other suitable cross sectional configuration, and consist of a leg portion 2| and a head portion 22.
If fabricated from a square member, the head portion may be formed by bending an elongated wall starting at a point horizontally opposite the end of the corresponding opposite or short wall through an arc of 90 degrees. The radius of this primary curvature is'approximately the width of the hollow member. From the point 90 degrees from the point of starting the curvature, the elongated wall is bent upon a second radius of curvature of one-half the width of the member centered about the point vertically removed from the first center of curvature at the end of the short wall and the second radius of curvature distance removed therefrom. By this method of fabrication the elongated wall is smoothly and convexly curved to meet the short wall at the end of the short wall making a complete enclosure. The two walls are secured together by suitable means such as brazing, welding and the equivalent thereof.
If fabricated from a round member head portion 22 is formed by bending the upper end portion of the tubular member through an arc of 90 degrees. This curvature is effected beginning at a point on the face of the tube and striking a long radius whose point of origin is on the outside face of the tube 180 degrees removed in a horizontal plane from said beginning point and bending the tube to conform to the arc swung through an angle of 90 degrees from said point of origin. This brings the open end of said tubular member into the vertical plane. The open end is then capped with a hemisphere of a radius approximately equal to the radius of the tube which may be secured by suitable means such as welding, threaded connection or the like. This mode of fabrication provides a pocket 24 into which ball 25 recedes during the drum rotation from the lowest to the highest point.
Housing unit 20 is secured to shell I0 by suitable means 26 such as bolts, rivets, welding and the like. The attachment may be by direct means or through a wall plate 21 intermediate thereof so that contact of the hammer means will not be directly on the dryer shell. Before attachment of the housing unit 20, a heavy ball 25 of steel or the like is inserted in the housing 20. The length of the tubular unit, or stated another way, the length of free-fall path of a ball 25, may be of any predetermined length, limited only by the height above the ground at which the rotary dryer is positioned. Tubular portions of ten to fifteen inches are preferred when housings are attached to rotary drum dryers of five to six feet in diameter.
Head portion 22 of housing 20 is provided with stop means 28 which is insertable through an aperture 29 in the hemispherical wall. This stop means is adjustable to limit the depth to which ball 25 seats in pocket 24. Stop means 28 in a preferred simple embodiment consists of a threaded bolt 30 having threads 3| thereof adapted to cooperate with threads 32 of aperture 29. Ball 30 is provided with a lock nut 33 to insure that repeated contact with the ball 26 does not alter the predetermined setting.
The following descripion will illustrate details of the preferred type of installation. Four housing units are equilaterally spaced around the outside steel shell of five feet diameter rotary dryer at a distance of about four feet from the inlet end. The tubular portion of each housing unit is six inches in diameter and the shortest leg is ten inches. The radius of curvature of the arc is six and one-quarter inches and the radius of curvature of the curve of the hemisphere is three and one-eight inches. The housing carried a steel ball of approximately five inches in diameter weighing approximately 18 pounds. Between each housing and the dryer shell is positioned a two-inch thick wear plate. This wear plate is welded to the shell and the housi Welded to the wear plate.
Each housing is attached to the Wear plate so that the housing is positioned at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the dryer and. in addition, so that the longitudinal axis of the housing is angled in the direction opposite to the direction of rotation of the dryer. This angle of cant is variable depending upon speed of rotation of the dryer, weight of ball and the distance the ball falls. For a speed of about 5 to 8 revolutions per minute the angle of cant is about 20 degrees from the radial line.
The free fall distance for the ball hammer under this arrangement is slightly less than ten inches and the adjustment is such that the ball contacts the wear plate with timing giving contact at plus or minus ten degrees from the vertical axis.
Wet crystalline potash material is fed to this dryer at a mixture content of approximately 8% and is dried in hot gases, having a temperature of approximately 600 F. entering the drum, to a mixture content of less than 1%. Three wall hammers have maintained the shell free from adhering salt cake.
