4 Claims. 1
This invention relates generally to certain new and useful improvements in concentrators, but more particularly to a concentrating apparatus for evaporating water from fruit juices and like solutions which cause the coating of the heating surfaces with a slimy or gelatinous layer and interfere with the heat transfer unless continuously removed.
It is one of the objects of this invention to provide a concentrator of this character which is so designed and constructed as to provide for a high velocity of steam and vapor therethrough with a high rate of heat transfer and with less heating surface required for a given amount of evaporation.
Another object is to provide a concentrating apparatus which will effect concentration of the material in one pass therethrough and thereby prevent loss of valuable properties, particularlyin sensitive materials, due to the short time the material is in contact with the heating surfaces.
A further object of the invention is to provide a concentrator whose interior parts are so designed and arranged as to enable their ready withdrawal for cleaning.
Other features of the invention reside inthe construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter described and particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the concentrating apparatus embodying my invention. Figure 2 is an enlarged fragmentary central longitudinal section thereof. Figure 3 is an end view of the same, viewing the left hand end of Figure 1. Figures 4 and 5 are cross sections taken substantially on the correspondingly numbered lines in Figure 2. Figure 6 is a longitudinal section taken on line 6-45, Figure 5. Figure 7 is an enlarged fragmentary cross section taken on line 'l-1, Figure 2, showing one of the scrapers for cleaning the inside surface of the steam jacket cylinder. Figure 8 is a fragmentary longitudinal section taken on line 8--8, Figure 7.
Similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
In the preferred embodiment of the invention shown in the drawings, it comprises an outer stationary heating unit or steam jacketed cylinder I!) supported on suitable pedestals II, II, and an inner, slowly rotating cylinder 12 of substantially frusto-conical shape disposed therein and between the annular surfaces of which cylinders. the liquid to be concentrated is introduced and passed.
The steam jacketed cylinder I0 consists of an outer shell l3 and a concentrically-spaced inner shell I4 having helically-disposed ribs l5 therebetween providing a helical or spiral passage l6, closed at its ends, for the circulation of the steam which is introduced thereto through an inlet l1 located adjacent one end of such cylinder. This helical steam passage is gradually decreased in cross-sectional area from. its intake end in such proportion as to maintain a fairly uniform velocity of the steam. In its outer shell i3 this cylinder has a plurality of condensate drains I8, and in its top it has a vent I 9 for non-condensibles.
The inner rotatable cylinder [2 is tapered from the vent end of the stationary cylinder to its steam intake end and provided on its outer surface are helices or spiral ribs 26 which form a helical or spiral passage 2! for vapor between this rotating cylinder and the inner shell 14 of the companion cylinder. The ends of this passage are closed by walls 22, 23 and the wall 22 has a plurality of small intake ports 24 therein for the liquid to be concentrated while the opposite wall 23 has a plurality of larger outlet ports 25 therein. The ends of the rotating cylinder are closed by dished heads 23 having collars Z1 thereon and these collars are attached to a hollow shaft 28 extending axially through the cylinder and supported at its ends in suitable adjustable bearings 29 attached to heads 30, 3| applied to the extended end portions of the stationary cylinder I 0 and having stuifing boxes 32 disposed between the shaft and such heads. The head 30 is detachably connected to an end closure flange 33 applied to the some sponding end of the cylinder in while the companion head 3i may be fixed by welding or the like. A drive sprocket 34 is fixed on one end of this shaft for connection to a suitable source of power to impart a slow rotation to the inner cylinder 12.
The inner shell IA of the stationary or steamjacketed cylinder Ill is extended at one end beyond the tapered end of the rotating cylinder l2 to provide a vapor chamber 35 havmg a discharge passage 36 adapted for connection to a condenser. This chamber has a transverse partition or annular member 31 substantially centrally thereof to divide it into two parts and to prevent any of the concentrate discharged from the spiral passage 2| being carried out by the vapor. At the inner side of this partition the extended portion of this cylinder has a discharge opening 38 for the concentrate and at the opposite. or outer side thereof it has a drain 39 for removing the water while washing the interior of the apparatus. Between the opposing heads 26 and 30 there is provided a chamber into which the liquid to be concentrated is introduced through an inlet 4! formed in the head 30 and from which chamber the liquid is discharged through the ports 24 into the spiral passage 2| between the companion cylinders I!) and I2.
Disposed between and mounted on each pair of helices 2c is a scraping blade 42 in contact with the inner surface of the shell l4 ofthe steam jacket cylinder It to keep such surface clean of foreign matter during the rotation of the cylinder I2 and maintain the heat transfer into the spiral passage 2| at a maximum at all times. A light, substantially U-shaped spring 43 adjacent each end of the blade maintains it against the inner shell-surface, and the ends of the blade fit into a shallow notch 44 provided in the edges of adjoining helices with a milled slot 45 into which the edge of the scraper is inserted for holding it in place.
Extending through and beyond either end of the hollow shaft 28 is a beam 46, which may be of I-beam cross section, as shown in Figure 5, and which is supported at its opposite ends on vertically-adjustable pads 41 applied to companion jack-screws 43 mounted on frames 49. Trolleys 5e are arranged adjacent the ends of this hollow shaft, each including four wheels 5| in rolling contact with the base-flanges of the beam and two rollers 52 having their axes parallel with the axis of the shaft and adapted for contact with the inside of such shaft when the beam 46 is elevated. In the normal position of the parts shown in the drawings, with the beam lowered, the rollers 52 are free from contact with the hollow shaft 28 and it can turn freely. However, when the beam is raised by the jack-screws 43, these rollers contact the inner surface of the shaft and the inner assembly l2 of the concentrator and its associated parts can be removed from the outer assembly it for cleaning, as shown by dot-dash lines in Figure 1. The inner assembly can be rotated on the trolley-rollers 52 for convenience in washing and scrubbing the parts.
This apparatus is particularly useful in the evaporation of such products as fruit juices and the like which coat the heating surfaces with a slimy or gelatinous-like layer, and due to its structural arangement of parts and the high velocity of the steam and the vapor, the rates of heat transfer are high and a minimum of heating surface is required for a given amount of evaporation, all of which makes possible the concentration of the juice or solution in one pass through the concentrator without loss of valuable properties because of the short time it is in contact with the heating surfaces.
This apparatus, because of the ready removability of its interior parts for thorough cleaning, is also adaptable for evaporating water from milk or other solutions which must be concentrated under completely sanitary conditions. For such use the inner cylinder l2 can be stationary and need not be revolved.
