United States Patent O 3,260,036 SMOKE WASHER Frank De Bellis, 300 Harrison St., Gary, Ind. Filed Mar. 5, 1964, Ser. No. 349,641 Claims. (Cl. 55-223) The present invention generally relates to a device for cleaning or Washing smoke Iand then discharging the cleaned smoke from a chimney or the like.
An object of the present invention is to provide a smoke washer adapted for use in conjunction with various industrial plants or wherever smoke is produced as a result of combusti-on. The smoke washer of the present invention incorporates a washing chamber through which the smoke initially passes and in which Water passes through the smoke for entraining solid particles, fly ash, unburned particles and the like and Ithe hot smoke will turn at least part of the water into s-team thereby lfurther serving to separate the dirt from the smoke so that it will be collected in the bottom of the washing chamber.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a smoke washer in whichthe smoke is conveyed Vthrough the washing apparatus by employing a fan device which has a discharge pipe communicating with a chimney or other discharge conduit.
Yet another object of the present invention is 4to provide a smoke washel incorporating two chambers therein with the iirst chamber having a water spray therein and a second chamber bein-g in the form of a separation chamber communicated with a ian. The bottom of the chambers are slanted so tha-t dripping water will drain from the bott-om of the smoke washer.
Another 4object of the present invention is to provide a smoke washer having safety `features therein to enable the device to be used when desired and taken out of service for repair or maintenance.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a smoke washer which is simple in construction, easy to install, well adapted for its particular purposes and relatively inexpensive to manufacture and operate.
'I'hese together with other objects and advantages which will become subsequently apparent reside in vthe details of construction and oper-ation as more fully hereinafter de scribed and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout, and in which:
FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of the smoke washer of the prese-nt invention;
FIGURE 2 is a plan view of the construction of FIG- URE 1; and
FIGURE 3 is a vertical sectional view of the smoke washer illustrating the structural details of the components of the present invention.
Referring now specifically to the drawings, the smoke washer of the present invention includes an enlarged housing or casing 12 of generally square or similar contiguration and which includes a top wall 14 and an inclined bottom wall 16 which is inclined slightly and continuously throughout the length of the housing 12. One end of the housing 12 is provided with an inlet pipe, stack or conduit 18 by which waste gases, smoke and the like .are discharged into the interior of the housing 12 by a downturned discharge end 20 on the inlet pipe 18 whereby the smoke will be discharged downwardly toward the inclined bottom 1-6.
4Spaced between the end walls of the housing 12 is an opstanding partition wall 22 generally paralleling the end walls of the housing 12 and extending to a vertical height above the disch-arge end of the inlet pipe 18. 'I`he opposite end wall of :the housing 12 is provided with an upwardly inclined outlet pipe 24 communicated there- ICC with generally above the point of discharge of the inlet pipe 18 and generally in alignment with the top edge of the partition 22. As illustrated in FIGURE 3, the partition 22 is nearer the discharge pipe 24 than it is the end wall having the inlet pipe 18 therein and the upward inclination of the disch-arge pipe 24 will assure that any moisture deposited on the inner surface of the wall will drain back into the housing 12.
Disposed immediately below the top wall 14 is a pair of manifold pipes 26 each having a plurality of Water discharge nozzles 28 attached thereto and extending downwardly therefrom. The manifold pipes 26 are interconnected by a connecting pipe 30 having a T-ii-tting 32 in the center thereof which is communicated with an upwardly extending supply pipe 34 extending up through the top 14 and provided with a manu-al control valve 36 therein for controlling discharge of water as a water spr-ay into the smoke discharged from the discharge end 20 of the inlet pipe 18.
The water spray discharged from the nozzles 28 will pass through the smoke thus eifectively washing the smoke and will then be deposited on the upper surface of the bottom 16. The lower edge of the partition 22 is provided with an aperture or apertures 38 for communicating the two chambers or compartmentsformed in the housing 12 so that the water collected in the bottom of the housing 12 may be discharged through la discharge pipe 40 -at the lowermost cor-ner thereof. The discharge pipe 40 is provided with an inverted U-shaped trap member 42 which serves only to retain the water 44 at a predetermined level in the housing 12. At least, the level will reach a predetermined position before it is discharged over the trap member 42 wherein the trap member 42 will then permit discharge of water thereover into a waste pipe 46 extending to a suitable collection tank, sewer or the like depending upon the nature of the discharged water since there is a possibility that the discharged water will be recirculated after cleaning.
Each of the compartments in the housing 12 is provided with an enlarged inspection or access opening 48 adjacent the bottom thereof which is closed by an inspection plate or cover 50 secured in place by a plurality of suitable fasteners 52 and a suitable seal ring or the like. There -is also provided an inspection hole 54 adjacent the upper corner of the housing 12 with there also being a cover 56 thereon secured in place detachably by fasj housing 60 having a fan 62 rotatably mounted therein. I
The bottom of the housing is provided with a drain pipe 64 communicated with the waste pipe 46 for draining any water that may be deposited in the housing 60. The fan 62 is provided with a drive shaft 66 drivingly connected to an electric motor 68 that is supported on a supporting plate 70 carried by a stand frame 72 having a plurality of depending angle iron legs 74 provided thereon for supporting the electric motor 68 in position for driving the \fan 62. The fan 62 is preferably of the squirrel-cage type although the axial flow type may be employed. The squirrel-cagetype provides a centrifugal action to the air for serving as a further separation of any moisture entrained in the air so that it'can be drained through the discharge pipe 64. The cleaned smoke moved by the fan `is dis-charged through an outlet pipe 76 communicated with a smoke stack or chimney 78 with the discharge pipe 76 being tangential to housing 60 and` curved in any suitable manner to. connect with the chimney or exhaust stack 78.
In the discharge pipe or conduit 76, there is provided a manual damper or buttery valve 80 which closes off the smoke washer from the stack or chimney 78. As illustrated in FIGURE 3, the stack or chimney 78 is also in communication with a pipe or conductor 82 which may be of equal size to the stack or chimney or may be smaller or larger and this conduit 82 communicates with the source of smoke so that the smoke may either pass through the smoke washer or pass directly into the chimney by passing through the conduit 82 in which event the damper 80 would be closed.
The water nozzles may be of any suitable type but it is desirable that the pattern of water discharged therefrom cover substantially the entire cross-sectional area of the washing compartment of the housing 12. Suitable valving may be provided wherever desired such as in the water supply pipe and also in the water drain pipes 40 or 46 and also the water drain pipe 64- if desired. The electric motor 68 may be of variable speed so that the speed of the fan can be adjusted as desired. The closure plates or doors 50 and 56 may be provided with handles to facilitate handling thereof and reproof gaskets may be employed. When the smoke is discharged into the spray olf water,-the temperature of the smoke will be materially decreased thus serving lto precipitate unburned gases and also remove carbon particles, y ash and the like from the smoke. Also, the moisture or water is at least partially converted to steam which, when cooled with further contact with water spray or due to passage around `the partition will serve to further precipitate dirt out of the smoke thus enabling cleaner smoke to be discharged. The device may be constructed of any suitable material and may be of any suitable size depending upon the volume of smoke passing therethrough.
The foregoing is considered as `illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous moditication and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention lto the exact construction and operation .shown and described, and accordingly all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention as claimed.
