Definitions

  • An object of the invention is to provide a new concept for splitting such materials, which is distinguished inter alia by its particularly high effectiveness.
  • a radiating device designed as an injector is inserted into an inlet aperture recessed in the material to be split.
  • the device is supplied with ultra high-frequency oscillations in the decimeter or centimeter range and is arranged to locally concentrate these ultrahigh-frequency oscillations in the interior of the material to be split at the area of the injector, said oscillations causing splitting of the material due to local internal dielectric heating thereof.
  • a device for carrying out this method comprises a radiating element in the form of an injector comprising two relatively perpendicularly polarized radiators each radiating substantially into the same local space.
  • the device also includes two ultrahigh-frequency generators having output circuits which are coupled to a wave-guide system leading to the radiating element and feeding the two relatively perpendicularly polarized radiators.
  • the device is arranged so that the ultrahigh-frequency generators are not coupled together.
  • FIG. 1 shows a device serving to explain the method according to the invention
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 show a few particularly advantageous devices according to the invention for carrying out the method to be described with reference to FIG. 1, and
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 show, on a larger scale, a cross-section and longitudinal section of a component part in the device of FIG. 3.
  • the reference numeral 1 indicates a stone to be split and weighing, for example, several tons, in which a hole 2 is drilled.
  • the hole 2 is made visible in the figure by removing part of the Wall of the stone.
  • the drilled hole may be, for example, from 4 to 6 cms. in diameter, and its depth is from cms. to cms.
  • For splitting the stone at radiating device 3 formed as an injector, is supplied through a wave-guide system 5 with ultrahigh-frequency oscillations provided by an ultrahigh-frequency generator 4, for example, of a wavelength of 12 cms. (2,450 mc./s.) and a power of 10 kilowatts.
  • the injector is introduced into the drilled hole 2 for locally concentrating the ultrahigh-frequency oscillations in the interior of the stone 1 at the area of the injector 3 so that within a few minutes after switching on the ultrahigh-frequency generator 4, the stone 1 breaks into smaller pieces according to several split faces surrounding the hole 2.
  • the ultra-high frequency oscillations cause a strong local dielectric heating in the interior of the stone 1 around the drilled hole 2, resulting in exceptionally high internal tensions being produced in the interior of the stone 1 causing it to fall to pieces within a few minutes.
  • this new concept is further distinguished in that the splitting process takes places without any appreciable development of dust, which is very important for the health of the operating staff.
  • This splitting method is particularly eifective for very hard stones which are difficult to split in any other way as, for example, granite.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 show two particularly advantageous devices according to the invention for carrying out the method described hereinbefore.
  • these devices are designed so that in each case the power concentration of the ultrahighfrequency oscillations is a maximum at the area of the radiating device formed as an injector.
  • the splitting process increases progressively with the power concentration of the ultrahigh-frequency radiation emitted by the radiating device.
  • a device for carrying out the above-described method is shown in perspective in FIG. 2 and comprises two magnetron generators 7, 8 which are connected through coaxial lines 9, 1G to a wave guide 11.
  • Waveguide 11 guides the ultrahigh-frequency oscillations, for example, of a wavelength of 12 cms. 2,450 mc./s.), produced by the two magnetron generators 7, 8 to a radiating device 12 formed as an injector.
  • the injector may be placed in the hole 2 of 5 cms. in diameter drilled in the stone 1 to be split.
  • the two magnetron generators 7, 8 employed may be of a type which provides a maximum power of 5 kilowatts.
  • the two magnetron generators 7, 8 are coupled to the Wave guide 11 by means of the inner conductors 13, 14 of the coaxial lines 9, 10.
  • Conductors 13, 14 are inserted perpendicularly to each other into the wave guide 11, each of the relatively perpendicular inner conductors 13, 14 radiating a linearly-polarized electromagnetic field having a direction of polarization parallel to the relevant inner conductor 13 or 14.
  • the two electromagnetic fields having relatively perpendicular directions of polarization are supplied, without the magnetrons 7, 8 directly acting upon each other, to the radiating device 12, formed as an injector, through the wave guide 11 which, in order to permit its connection to the radiating device 12 having a diameter less than 5 cms., gradually narrows in the axial direction, for example, from a diameter of 10 cms. to the diameter of the radiating device 12.
  • two pairs of diametrically opposite guide strips 15, 16 are provided on the inner wall thereof in directions parallel to the directions of polarization of the two emitted electromagnetic fields.
  • the field of the magnetron 7 has a direction of polarization parallel to the conductive strips 15 and propagates substantially in the narrow gap between the two conductive strips 15 in the axial direction.
  • the field of the other magnetron 8 is guided in the axial direction through the gap between the two other conductive strips 16.
  • the two relatively perpendicularly polarized fields of the magnetrons 7, 8 propagate in the gaps between the diametrically opposite conductive strips 15, 16.
  • the conductive strips 15, 16 also extend outside the wave guide 11 thereby forming two relatively perpendicularly polarized radiators constituting together the radiating device 12 formed as an injector. More particularly, the gap located between the conductive strips 15 forms a gap radiator for the oscilla tions from the magnetron 7. The gap between the conductive strips 16 forms a gap radiator for the oscillations from the magnetron 8 which are polarized at right angles to the first mentioned oscillations.
  • the electromagnetic fields thus radiated cause strong dielectric heating of the stone mass 1 surrounding the drilled hole 2. Any surface currents flowing at the outer periphery of wave guide 11 adjacent the radiating device 12 are damped by the surrounding stone mass 1.
  • each of the magnetron 7, 8 may be matched to the load formed by the stone 1 independently of each other, that is to say an optimum transmission of power to the load may be obtained for each of the magnetrons 7, 8.
  • the magnetron 8 is matched to the load by adjusting the depth of insertion of the inner conductor 14 of the coaxial line 10 and displacing a tuning piston 17.
  • the magnetron 7 is matched by adjusting the depth of insertion of the inner conductor 13 of the coaxial line 9 and displacing a polarizing grid 18 positioned between the inner conductors 13, 14.
  • the grid passes the oscillations from the magnetron 8 and reflects the oscillations from the magnetron 7.
  • This device not only permits a maximum power concentration at the radiating device 12 formed as an injector, so that a particularly effective splitting process is realized, as explained hereinbefore, but also the relatively perpendicular directions of polarization of the two radiated electromagnetic fields are particularly advantageous for this splitting process.
  • the splitting process has been found to be dependent upon the direction of polarization of the radiated electromagnetic field and has been found, for example, to show a minimum for a given direction of polarization and a maximum for a direction of polarization approximately at right angles thereto.
  • FIG. 3 is a perspective view of another embodiment of a device according to the invention in which all the advantages of the device of FIG. 2 are also realized.
  • the device shown in FIG. 3 comprises two magnetrons '7, 8 each of kilowatts, designed to produce oscillations of a wave-length of 12 cms. (2,450 mc./s.).
  • Coaxial lines 9, are connected to the output circuits of the magnetrons 7, 8 for coupling them to a wave-guide system which guides the oscillations produced by the magnetrons 7, 8 to a radiating device 20 in the form of an injector comprising two perpendicularly-polarized radiators.
  • the waveguide system now comprises two concentric coaxial lines.
  • the magnetron 7 is connected to the inner coaxial line comprising conductors 21, 22 and the magnetron 8 is connected to the outer coaxial line comprising conductors 22, 23 in order to feed separately the two relatively perpendicularly polarized radiators.
  • the magnetron 8 feeds through the coaxial line 22, 23 a linear radiator 24, for example, having a length of 6 cms., formed by the inner conductor 22 of coaxial line 22, 23 led to the exterior.
  • the magnetron 7 feeds through the coaxial line 21, 22 an annular radiator 25 placed on the inner conductor 22 of coaxial line 22, 23 formed as the linear radiator 24.
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 show a cross-section and a longitudinal section thereof on a larger scale.
  • the annular radiator 25 comprises a plurality, for example, four spaced coaxial segments 26, 27, 28, 29 of a ring.
  • the segments are energized through radially-directed coaxial pieces of line 30, 31, 32, 33 by the inner conductor 21 of coaxial line 21, 22 so that in each case the inner conductor of a coaxial segment 26, 27, 28, 29 is connected to the outer conductor of a subsequent segment 27, 28, 29, 26, for example, by making the relevant part of each segment 27, 28, 29, 26 of solid metal, as indicated by cross-hatching.
  • All the segments 26, 27, 28, 29 of the annular radiator 25 are then excited with equal phase, resulting in circular currents of equal direction, as indicated by arrows, flowing in the outer conductors of the segments 26, 27, 28, 29 provided that these outer conductors have a length smaller than a half wave-length of the oscillations produced.
  • the segments 26, 27, 28, 29 in the embodiment shown each have a length of 4 cms.
  • the magnetron 8, which is connected to the linear radiator 24, may be matched to the load by suitable choice of the length of the linear radiator 24 and by means of a displaceable tuning piston 34 provided on the end of coaxial line 22, 23 remote from the annular radiator 25.
  • the magnetron 7, which is connected to the annular radiator 25 may be matched to the load by means of tuning pistons 35, 36 displaceable respectively towards the extremity of the linear radiator 24 and the other extremity of coaxial line 21, 22. As in the device shown in FIG. 2, optimum transmission of energy from the magnetrons 7, 8 to the load formed by the stone is thus ensured.
  • the device of FIG. 3 has, as previously mentioned, all the advantages of the device of FIG. 2.
  • Characteristic of these devices is that the radiating device formed as an injector comprises two relatively perpendicularly polarized radiators each radiating substantially into the same local space and two ultrahigh-frequency generators have output circuits which are coupled to a wave-guide system leading to the radiating device and feeding the two relatively perpendicularly polarized radiators, the ultrahigh-frequency generators not being coupled together.
