Definitions

  • This invention relates to an ultrasonic device for placing materials in suspension especially in fluids for emulsifying, and for making intimate mixtures in general.
  • Ultrasonic means can be utilized for the suspension of mercury in water for instance and other materials are also successfully suspended.
  • such materials as clays, fillers and pigment for various industrial processes as in the making of textiles, printing, paper making, etc. can be suspended in appropriate fluids.
  • the present invention relates to a continuous flow method of providing materials in such suspension, etc. so that the device may be placed directly in the flow of the industrial process being utilized and avoids the common necessity of using relatively unwieldy and costly batch methods where the materials have to be transferred from a vat to another position in which they are made use of during further processing.
  • the materials placed in suspension may be substantially immediately utilized for their intended purpose.
  • the particular device described herein will provide solids in suspension in a fluid medium for a relatively long period of time and are carried through in the process in substantially completely suspended condition, thus increasing the speed of the process in which the suspended material is utilized and also greatly improving the end product thereof, among other advantages.
  • the insertion of the ultrasonic device in the flow of the stock greatly enhances the dispersion of the fibers therein; and further, fillers, fines, colors, clay, etc. of any desired description may be inserted in the flow, passing through the ultrasonic device and thus becoming suspended uniformly throughout the stock so that the paper formation is greatly improved by having the filler, clay, etc. dispersed uniformly therein and avoiding the present difiiculty where the solids approach one side or the other of the formation of the paper.
  • Uniformity of product i.e., particularly in paper, and uniformity of the paper formation is greatly to be desired and is commonly not obtained.
  • one side of the sheet is a dilferent shade from the other side of the sheet because the coloring material utilized is settled somewhat, i.e., been forced to one side or the other of the paper during the formation of the paper, and this can be cured by the use of the present invention because the coloring material is uniformly dispersed throughout the stock as it approaches the paper forming means, i.e., such as the Fourdrinier wire. Also fillers, clays, etc.
  • a further object of the invention resides in the provision of an ultrasonic device as stated which is located in an explosion box.
  • the explosion box itself provides a very satisfactory dispersion of particles as for instance the fibers in paper stock, but when combined with the present ultrasonic device, the explosion box is made a great deal more effective as well as providing for dispersion of other matters in the fluid in addition to the fibers, i.e., such things as coloring materials, fillers, clays, etc.
  • this conduit has in it material continuously flowing in the direction of the arrow, this material being a fluid in which is contained a solid or other material to be processed.
  • This material can be substantially anything such as clays, fillers, coloring material, etc., particularly adapted for paper making and textiles, or any other material which is desired to be uniformly dispersed throughout the: fluid which acts in this case as a carrier.
  • the fluid will also have in it semi-dispersed stock fibers which however usually become flocculent due to being pumped through the pipe or due to being forced through a device such as a headbox slice or the like.
  • the pipe 10 has flowing through it under pressure a fluid material carrying semi-dispersed materials which are to be dispersed into a suspended state throughout the fluid. Also it is to be understood that the representation in the drawing of the pipe 10 can be in any desired location in any piece of machinery adapted for any purpose in which the fluid flows as stated and under the conditions mentioned.
  • the pipe at 12 diverges, in the case shown, into a funnel-like flaring enlargement and this enlargement leads into any kind of a reservoir, flow box or the like, generally indicated 'by the reference numeral 14 into which the fluid flows from pipe 10.
  • the box at 14 then is utilized to pass the fluids with the suspended matter therein and the dispersed material to Whatever process is desired to be utilized thereafter.
  • the box 14 may contain the fluids for a relatively short period of time or pass them on continuously according to the conditions encountered in the particular art in which the invention may be used.
  • the enlargement at 12 is provided with what is called an explosion block 16.
  • This explosion block is mounted on a stem 18 supported by overhead apparatus not shown and it may if desired be moved up and down in order to vary the passage 20 which surrounds block 16 and is contained between block 16 and the walls of the enlargement 12.
  • the fluid of course flows through this passage into the box 14 and thus there is a clear continuous path for the fluid from the pipe 10 into box 14 and thence to Wherever the fluid is to be utilized.
  • the passage 20 is restricted relative to the flow volume of pipe 10.
  • the enlargement 12 and block 16 are preferably conical.
  • the member 16 is substantially solid but it contains therein a commercially manufactured ultrasonic device generally indicated by the reference numeral 22.
  • This device is manufactured by Branson Instruments, Inc., Danb'ury, Connecticut. The construction and operation of these ultrasonic devices are Well known.
  • the ultrasonic device 22 by reason of being located where it is in the conical member 16 creates thereby an agitation area in the region and substantially the shape depicted at approximately the area 24 in the pipe 10.
  • any material in the stream in the pipe becomes thoroughly suspended in the fluid, or as a matter of fact generally immiscible fluids become emulsified, and the material in uniform suspended or dispersed condition flows continuously into the box 14 and thence into the subsequent areas of the machine and through the processes thereafter utilized.
  • the effect of the present invention is to provide extremely improved uniformity of the end product which is being manufactured under the influence of fluid as described in the present invention regardless of the art or industry to which it is applied. It is believed that the paper making industry will immediately recognize the benefits to be derived and the resulting uniformity of the paper formation. The printer will recognize that printing will be more uniform without any lifting action and that the color of the paper will be uniform throughout rather than varying through the thickness of the paper. It is well known to the paper maker that the effect of additives such as fillers, fines, etc. is to unbalance the stock due to the drainage on the wire and in recent years the beating action of the pulp has tended to be speeded up and in some cases this results in poorer formation which is obviated by the present invention.
  • the stock fibers are more uniformly dispersed and the filler itself is thereby better retained as there is less drainage when the fibers are square rather than relatively uneven because unevenness in the fiber formation provides holes through which the fillers can be easily drained by the suction boxes. Furthermore if the dyes are absorbed in the fibers and the fibers are relatively more evenly dispersed, the color is also more evenly dispersed, and for many other reasons not necessary to go into here the paper formation is greatly enhanced as it is made more uniform and the same is true as to materials of suspension in fluids throughout the arts and industries in general. Also, less carrier fluid need be used and the formation can be made much faster.
  • the support and mount for the ultrasonic device is thereby provided and occasions no interruption of flow or problems concerned with respect to interruptions to the flow or ridges or shelflike members which might interfere with the flow or which might catch articles to become built up and plugged, so that it is seen that a greater uninterrupted flow of fluid material is occasioned by the construction herein while at the same time the explosion box effect is added to the effect of the ultrasonic device as described above.
  • the conical block 16 should be omitted, the explosion is lost but the suspension or emulsification is retained. Also, the effective area 24 is displaced upwardly, but still the entire flow is past the ultrasonic device. If
  • the explosion block 16' as a block, can be omitted, with the probe itself formed into a similar shape, i.e., to generally correspond with the side walls at 12 forming the restricted path or passage at 20, and the same results and advantages are obtained.
  • Such a construction merely makes the explosion block as a part of the probe, rather than as a separate part.
  • energy below ultra sonic ranges can be useful to process certain materials, especially thick ones, and where the ultrasonic term is used, it is to be understood that some virbrations also are included.
