@Lii ATTORNE v United States Patent MEANS FOR DUST EXTRACTION AND VENTI- LATION F GRINDING WHEELS 'William Holloran White, Redditch, Birmingham, England, assignor to The British Cast Iron Research Association, Alvechurch, Birmingham, England "This invention relates to improved grinders and more particularly to means for dust control in such machines.
In existing systems of dust control the greater portion of the grinding wheel is enclosed, where the grinder is of the pedestal type, partly in a cowl and partly in a collecting box upon which the cowl is mounted and through which the dust-laden air is drawn bv an extraction fan. Even when large volumes of air are rapidly drawn through the box or cowl in this way, however, the efficiency of dust extraction is not satisfactory, since the system fails to control the dust-laden air-streams generated by the revolution of the wheel and discharged at high velocity from the space between the top of the wheel and the cowl, and particularly the dust-laden air stream which moves with high velocity over the top of the work and up the operators body into his breathing zone.
The improved system of the present invention comprises dust controlling and collecting means enclosing the grinding wheel, except for a suflicient working surface, to a maximum of the wear down mark on the wheel. Surrounding the exposed portion of the wheel, i. e. across the top close to the wheel where it emerges from the cowl and vertically on each side close to the sides of the wheel,
;there are provided slot openings to a plurality of ducts through which high-velocity, low-volume streams of air are drawn by means of a fan or fans connected to or :situated in the ducts. In this way the exposed portion of 1the wheel is enclosed between curtains of rapidly moving air which are not penetrated by (i. e. are clear of) the currents of dust-laden air from the wheel and the grinding action. if desired, means may be provided whereby the direction in which the slot openings face can be varied, e. g. by rotation of appropriate portions of the ducts through a small angle, to suit the work in hand.
An independent extraction duct may withdrawn dustladen air from in front of the work rest, the duct being for example expanded into a hopper placed immediately in front of the work rest. This duct may, if desired, be carried through the lower portion of the collecting box, whilst remaining independent thereof.
An important feature of the invention is the provision of means, such as generally described hereinabove, for creating a curtain or curtains of moving air between the wheel and the breathing zone of the operator, the speed of the moving air being sufficient to intercept any dust clouds moving in the direction of the breathing zone. It will be apparent that this can effectively be achieved by creating a more or less horizontal curtain of moving air at a level somewhat above the level at which the wheel emerges from its cover (and hence well below the breathing Zone). The creation of a pair of vertical curtains, one on each side of the wheel, is of advantage in conjunction with the horizontal curtain.
The uppermost duct which produces the horizontal curtain of air above the wheel may be divided to form two or more divergent sub-branches, with slots facing inwardly, which, with a breast-piece connecting their If desired, the breast-piece an inwardly facing slot. 7
drawn through the collecting two ends form a triangle. may also be provided with Optionally air may be box and hood.
It is of advantage that the collecting box should be of large volume and in the preferred form of the inventic-n it is large enough to contain one or more grinding wheels and the driving mechanism suitably mounted and enclosed. It may indeed be a large chamber through a slot or slots in the front wall of which suficient working surface of the grinding wheel or wheels protrude, suitable work rests being provided. In .such a construction the upper part of the chamber takes the place of the cowl or cowls. The large volume ensures that the air in the chamber or collecting box shall be relatively quiescent so that the dust can settle. An outlet pipe at the back of the chamber or box may be connected to a chimney and/or may contain an exhaust fan.
In all forms of the invention the work rest is preferably slotted or perforated, and may be seated on a suitable extension of the collecting box.
Some embodiments of the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 shows in perspective a pedestal grinder provided with means for creating curtains of high-velocity air between the grinding wheel and the operator.
Fig. 2 shows a variant in which a breast piece is provided.
Fig. 3 shows in perspective a two-wheel grinding unit provided with means for creating air curtains as in Figures l and 2, but housed in a large collecting box or chamber.
Fig. 1 shows a grinding wheel 1 partly enclosed in a cowl 2 over a collecting box 3 through which passes a lower exhaust duct 4, ending in a hopper 5 extending the full width of the collecting box 3 and from the front of the latter to the work-rest 6. An upper exhaust duct 7 is provided with two side-branches, 8, 9, having vertical slots 10, 11. The upper duct 7 also serves a pair of horizontal sub-branches 12, 13, provided with slotsl4, 15. As shown diagrammatically, ducts 4 and 7 are both connected to the intake of a single exhaust fan indicated at F.
In Fig. 2, in which corresponding parts bear the same numbers as in Fig. 1, the upper duct serves two subbranches 16, 17, provided with slots 18, 19 on their inner faces, and joined at their ends by a breast piece 20, some 8 inches in front of the grinding surface of the wheel 1. The breast piece 20 will usually be concave when viewed from the operators position. In the particular arrangement shown, each of ducts 4 and 7 is connected to a separate exhaust fan F.
In each case it is convenient to have flexible connecting tubes 21, 22 to connect the vertical pieces 8, 9 to the branch pipes of the duct 7; this permits of the adjustment of the sub-branches (12, 13 in Fig. l; 16, 17 in Fig. 2) to any desired angle with the horizontal.
Fig. 3 shows a pair of grinding wheels 31, 31, mounted on a countershaft 32 rotated by an electric motor 33. The whole, exceptfor a suflicient portion of the wheels for working purposes, is enclosed in a large exhaust chamber 34 provided with an exit pipe 35 which contains an exhaust fan 36 (or is connected to a suitable chimney) for the maintenance of reduced pressure in the chamber 34. The work rests 37, 37 are supported on extensions 38, 38 of the exhaust chamber 34 which encloses lower portions of the wheels 31, 31, without, however, approaching them closely. Close to each wheel where it emerges from the chamber 34 is an air-extracting duct 39 provided with a fan 40 and opening into the chamber 34. The rear opening of the duct 39 directs a high-velocl 3 ity, low-volume stream of air towards the periphery of the when 31 within the crnainiber 34. The "front portion of duct 39 lying outside the chamber '34 carries a slotshaped nozzle 41 rather longerthan the thickness of the wheel 31, and is provided with two branches '43 disposed yertically'on either side of the wheel 31. These branches "43 have slot-shaped lengthwise openings 44 which create side curtains of high-velocity, low-volume air-streams, whilst a similar horizontal air-stream created by nozzle 41 completes the protection of the operator.
If desired, ducts with funnel inlets, situated similarly to duct lin Figs. 1 and 2, may be added to the unit shown in Fig. 3. Such ducts may be provided with exhaust fans and/ or maylead into the exhaust chamber 34. 'A'fsingleexhaust chamber of sudicient'sizecan serve for any desired number of grinding uni-ts. It may be external to the grinding room itself, with one wall in cornmonprovided with panelswhich can be replaced with 2-'wheel grinding units as required. Each unit may have its owndriving' motor, or may be driven by belting from a common shaft within the chamber.
In all forms'of the invention described a high-velocity air curtain is created between the dust'generation point and'the breathing levelof the operator, and ihthe form of the invention illustratedin Fig. 2 the body of the operator, pressed againstthe breast-piece Zih'effectively seals off the dust-contaminated area.
In operation the heavy dustis thrown by the'a'cticn of thewhe'el and the peripheral air streams into the collectingbbx'where the velocityfd'ecreases and allows the dust to settlejby"'gravitat-ion, and the light air-borne dust is ollected'by the system of extraction air curtains. As is evident, the separate air-exhausting system which 'provides these air curtains is isolated on the low pressure side from thesp'ace within the enclosing means (e. g. cowl) by which the wheel is surrounded.
