Bunting, Dearborn, Mich., assignor to The Interstate Sanitation Company, Detroit, Mich., a corporation of Ohio Filed Apr. 27, 1964, Ser. No. 362,667 4 Claims. (Cl. 219-371) 'Thisinvention relates to a centrifugal compressor and more particularly to a heater associated with a centrifugal compressor and tending to control the discharge temperature of such a compressor; and with regard to certain ofiits more specific aspects, to a temperature responsive electrical heating unit for such a compressor.
The invention broadly contemplates an improved, extremely efficient heating unit mountable coaxially of the central inlet of a. centrifugal compressor and operable to heat the air or gas passing through the compressor without any substantial impairment of compressor efliciency or increase in driving power requirement. The invention further contemplates an inlet associated heating unit capableof isolating the compressor bearing and driving motor from any destructive heater induced thermal conditions.
The reductions in compressor efiiciency and the resultant increases in necessary compressor driving power and the destructive thermal conditions normally attendant previous compressor inlet mounted heating elements have generally precluded any Widespread use or commercial acceptance of such heaters, although some remote inlet conduit heaters have been used. In the past, compressor mounted heating elements have generally been located in the discharge chamber on nozzles of such centrifugal compressors. The discharge mounted heating element of the dryer disclosed in United States Patent No. 3,076,887 is illustrative of such past practice. However, the restriction provided to the high velocity discharge flow and the high current loads required for any substantial heating of such compressor discharge flow necessarily complicate the mounting and electrical connections required for such discharge intersecting heaters. These high velocity and heating current requirements also tend to preclude the use of a relatively compact discharge mounted heater and the use ofany simple satisfactory means for accurately controlling the compressor discharge temperature within the limits properly required formost blower heating applications.
With regard to certain of its more specific aspects, the invention further contemplates and features a heater supporting means or structure of electrical and heat insulating material defining an annular relatively unrestricted inlet passage mountable coaxially of and opening inwardly adjacent the central inlet of centrifugal blower or compressor and outwardly mounting a compressor inlet temperature controlled heating element with electrical terminal connections mounted by the insulating passage defining structure.
The foregoing and other objects, advantages and features of the invention will be apparent from the following description of an illustrative embodiment, having reference to the accompanying drawing, in which:
FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of .a centrifugal compressor or blower having an inlet heater constructed in accordance-with the invention mounted thereon coaxially of the compressor inlet;
FIGURE 2 is a plan elevational view of the compressor and inlet heater shown in FIGURE'l with portions of the compressor broken away and shown in partial section;
FIGURE 3 is a view further illustrating the inlet heater and is taken substantially in the plane of the line indicated at 3-3 in FIGURE 2 with certain portions broken away to show additional details of the inlet heater; and
3,291,966 Patented Dec. 13, 1966 FIGURE 4 is a fragmentary sectional view taken substantially in the plane indicated at 4-4 in FIGURE 3 and schematically indicates an illustrative connectlon of the blower inlet heating unit of the invention to a suitable power source or supply in parallel wtih the blower driving motor.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, acentrifugal compressor or blower of the type and size adapted to be used in a hand and face warm air dryer is indicated by the reference numeral 10. This blower is merely illustrative of an intended operational environment or specific application of the invention which is applicable to centrifugal compressors generally. A blower housing or casing is formed by two cooperating stamped housing members 12 and 14 suitably joined in a median plane as indicated at 16. The blower casing may be independently supported but is often mounted or attached to the casing or frame of an associated blower driving motor.
The end wall of the casing member 12 is centrally per! forated and supports a bearing 18 journalling the blower driving end of a motor driven shaft 20. The end of the shaft 20 projecting into the blower casing is drivingly secured to a hub 22 mounted coaXially of the end wall 24 of an impeller or compressor wheel 26 of known form having a perforated axial flange forming a plurality of compressor blades 28.
The end wall of the casingrnember 14 has free rotative clearance with the adjacent end of the compressor wheel and is perforated to define a blower inlet 30 opening coaxially and inwardly adjacent the inner radial edges of.
the compressor blades. The compress-or wheel thus divides the casing into a central inlet chamber and. an outer discharge chamber 32. The joined outer walls of the casing members cooperate to form a dischargechamber defining scroll 34 of generally involute spiral form, increasing in radial dimension from a point of minimum wheel clear-' ance at 36 and terminating in a discharge nozzle opening at 38. As the several blades of the compressor are rotated.
through the discharge nozzle region or zone past the point of minimum casing clearance, they pass through a subsequent Zone or region of minimum draw or suction.
An electrically and heat insulated heater constructed in accordance with certain aspects of the invention'is indicated generally by the reference numeral 40.- This heater is mounted on the casing member 14 coaXially-of" the blower inlet 30 and oriented with respect to the mini-' mum radius or clearance portion of the casing and consequently the minimum draw zone of the compressor unit.
In the illustrative embodiment, the blower inlet heater 40 includes an annular plate or ring 42 of suitableelectrical and heat insulating material mounted on the casing member coaxially and radially outwardly of the blower inlet. A circular plate 44 of-similar electrical and heat insulating material is supported in spaced parallel, co-
axial relation. to the blower inlet and to the insulating ring 42. As best seen in FIGURES 3v and 4, a plurality of chamfered cylindrical insulators 46 are angularly spaced and secured in coaxiallyaligned pairsbetween the ring 42 and the plate 44. The adjacent chamfered ends of these paired insulatorsv form shallow- V-grooves intermediate the insulator spaced, parallel ring, 42.and* plate 44. The insulating .ring and platethus cooperate to define an annular air inlet passage48 intersected orand to the casing member 14 by screws 52 and bolts 54 which extend through alternate sets of the angularly spaced insulators. The screws '52 are preferably selftapping and threadably engage cooperating angularly spaced holes 56 provided in the inlet adjacent flange of the casing member. The heads of the alternate bolts 54 are countersunk in the insulating ring 42 and are secured by nuts 58'threadable thereon into engagement with the opposite face of the insulating plate 44. The insulating elements 42, 44 and 46 thus cooperate to form both a heat insulated inlet passage and an electrically insulated frame. The paired shallow groove forming insulators of this frame outwardly support a resistance type heating element 60 intermediate the opposed inlet passage defining faces of the insulating ring and plate.
The heating element 60 of the illustrative embodiment is formed from a suitable length of coiled resistance wire and tangentially supported by the chamfer-formed grooves of the insulators which tend to independently compensate for the imposed thermal loads. As best shown in' FIG- URE 3, the opposite ends of the coiled heating element are deflected inwardly over adjacent angularly spaced paired insulators to form a circumferential gap in the heating element. These inwardly extending ends of the heating element are connected at 62 and 64 to circumferentially spaced terminal posts or bolts spacedly secured to the insulating plate 44. As shown schematically in FIGURE 4, the terminal post 62 is connected outwardly of the plate at 66 to one wire of a suitable electrical power source. The opposite post 64 is connected at 68 to one terminal of a self-contained temperature responsive circuit opening switch 70. The other terminal of the switch 70 is connected at 72 to a third terminal post secured to the insulating plate 44. The terminal post 72 is connectable outwardly of the plate at 74 to the other wire of the power source through a suitable switch 76 adapted to simultaneously energize the blower inlet heating element 60 and the blower driving motor 78.
By varying the location of the terminal post 72 on a radius about the terminal post 64, as indicated by the arcuated broken line 80, the position of the temperature responsive switch 70 may be varied with respect to the relatively cooler air drawn through the circumferential gap in the heating element between the spaced ends of the heating element. Additional control variation may be achieved by connecting and similarly locating the thermal cut-off switch with respect to the other heater terminal 62. A single thermal switch having a fixed cutoff temperature may thus be used in a number of different'blower heat applications to provide a relatively accurate range of desired blower discharge temperatures simply by varying the position of the thermal switch. Where wide'variations in the blower discharge temperature are'desired, as in certain drying applications, a variable temperature control switch may be used in place of the fixed temperature cut-01f switch of the illustrative embodiment.
The radially induced flow of air or gas through the heater is reversed immediately upon passing through the compressor inlet bythe centrifugal action of the inlet adjacent blades of the compressor wheel. This reversal in air flow has been found to result in a cone of relatively cooler air extending coaxially and outwardly from the motor shaft driven endwall 24 of the compressor wheel toward the compressor inlet. This cone of cooler air cooperates withthe remote, insulated mounting of the inlet heating element to further isolate the compressor bearing and driving motor from destructive heater induced thermal conditions.
From the foregoing description, it will be apparent that the illustrative embodiment provides a relatively simple, economical, easily assembled inlet heater for a centrifugal blower or compressor capable of wide application and furnishing the several stated objects, advantages and features of the invention. It will be further apparent that various changes and departures might be made in and from the structure of the illustrative embodiment without departing from the spirit and scope of the following claims.
