  • the most important advantage of the vortex separator resides therein that it is possible in a simple and rapid manner to remove and replace an individual separator unit without any interruption of the operationof the separator.
  • An individual separator unit which has been put out of operation, for instance, due to clogging or any other reason, can consequently be replaced with a new separator unit during continued operation of the separator and without any extensive disassemblingiand reassembling.

It is then being possible, as explained above,'to replace a clogged separator unit rapidly and easily with a new unit. 7
  • the vortex separator has also a comparatively simple structural design and requires relative to its capacity less space, both with respect to floor space and height to ceiling, than prior art multiple vortex separators.

  • the end walls 2 and 3 and the internal partition walls 4 and 5 of the vessel 1 are square and project consequently partially outside the cylindrical shell of the vessel. This facilitates the installation of the vessel.
  • the vessel 1 is resting on bed beams 12 and 13 with angle irons 14 and 15 respectively, which are attached along one side of the square external walls 2 and 3.
  • the vessel 1 is arranged with its pipe connections 9, l0, l1 pointing downwards, but it is obvious that the vessel could just as well be mounted on a support bed with the pipe connections pointing upwards or to the one or the other side. In this way the position of the vessel 1 can readily be adapted to the most suitable arrangement in the surrounding plant of the pipe conduits 1'6, 17 and 18 respectively connected to the pipe connections 9, l0 and 11.
  • the individual separator units 23 of the separator are mounted in the vessel 1, side, by side with their longitudinal axes mutually parallel, and parallel to the axis of the vessel 1. As most readily seen in FIG. 3, the separator units extend completely through the'vessel 1 in aligned openings'19, 20, 21 and 22 in the walls 2, 4,5 and 3 respectively of the vessel. In the illustrated embodiment, the vessel 1 is designed to hold 121 individual separator units. As shown in FIG. 3, each individual separator unit 23 is shaped as an elongate cylinder having a smooth cylindrical external wall with a uniform diameter over the entire length of the unit. Consequently, each individual separator unit can separately,
  • seal rings 24 of suitable elastic material, which are inserted in the openings 19 to 22 and seal against the surface of the separator'units 23.
  • these seal rings 24 have such a design that they are pressed against the surface of the separator units 23 by the liquid pressure existing within the compartments 6, 7 an 8 during operation of the separator.
  • the friction between the seal rings 24, and the external wall of the separator units 23, is sufficiently small, however, soar not to prevent the axial displacement ofthe separator units into and out from the vessel 1.
  • each individual separator unit 23 comprises a cylindrical, substantially tubular central body 25, provided with two ducts 26 passing through its wall and having tangentially directed orifices into the interior of the central body 25 at one side of an internal transverse wall 27.
  • the transverse wall 27, is provided with a central axial bore 28, to which a relatively short tubular piece 29 is connected on the one side of the wall 27 and a relatively longer tubular piece 30 is connected on the opposite side of the wall 27.
  • the two tubular pieces 29 and 30 are preferably integral and may also be integral with the transverse wall 27.
  • a substantial conical tube 31 is joined with its larger end to the one axial end of the central body 25.
  • the conical tube 31- is connected tothe central body 25 by means of a tubular cylindrical sleeve 32, which has the same external diameter as the central body 25, and which is attached to the central body 25 by means of a threaded connection 33.
  • the tubular sleeve 32 en-' closes the conical tube 31 and extends axially past its narrow end.
  • the outer end of the sleeve 32 is sealed by an end plate 34, kept in place by a lock ring 35, screwed into an internal thread 36 at the end of the sleeve 32.
  • a similar tubular cylindrical sleeve 37 having the same external diameter as the central body 25 is connected to the other axial end of the central body 25 by means of a threaded connection 38.
  • the sleeve 37 encloses the tube 30 and extends. axially past the end of the tube 30.
  • the outer end of the sleeve 37 is sealed by an end plate 39 kept in place by an externally threaded short sleeve 40, which is screwed into an internal thread 41 in the outer end of the sleeve 37.
  • Adjacent its outer end the tubular sleeve 32 is provided with two radial ports 42, through which the interior of the sleeve 32 communicates with the compartment 6 in the vessel 1.
  • the tubular sleeve 37 is adjacent its outer end, provided with two ports 43 through which the interior of the sleeve 37 communicates with the compartment 8 in the vessel 1.
  • This separator unit 23 operates in a manner well known in the art.
  • the conical tube 31 forms a substantially conical vortex chamber 44, which receives at its larger end the suspension to be cleaned or separated, the so called inject, through the tangential ducts 26,
  • the compartment 7 in the vessel 1 serves as a common inject compartment for all separator units 23, to which inject compartment the inject suspension is supplied through the pipe conduit 17 and the pipe connection 10.
  • the suspension forms in well known manner a helical vortex, in which the suspension is separated in a heavier fraction, the so called reject, concentrated close to the wall of the vortex chamber and a lighter fraction, the so called accept, close to the center of the vortex.
  • the reject that is the heavier fraction, is discharged from the vortex chamber 44 through its narrow open end 45, which consequently serves as a reject outlet from the vortex chamber 44.
  • this compartment 6 serves as a common reject compartment for all separator units 23, from which a reject compartment the rejcect is withdrawn through the pipe connection 9 and the pipe conduit 16.
  • the accept that is the lighter fraction, is discharged from the vortex chamber 44in well known manner through the short tube 29, which serves as a vortex finder, and the openings 28in the transversewall 27 at the larger end of the vortex chamber 44. Consequently, the accept flows through the tube 30 and its open end 46 and subsequently, through the openings 43 in the sleeve 37 into the compartment 8 in the vessel 1. Consequently, the compartment 8 serves as a common accept compartment for all separator units 23, from which accept compartment the accept is withdrawn through the pipe connection 11' and the pipe conduit 18.
  • The-"two end plates 34 ad 39 consist preferably of a transparent material so as'to form windows, through which the suspension flow at the reject outlet 45 from the vortex chamber 44, and at the open end 46 of the accept outlet tube 30 respectively, can be observed from the outside during operation of the separator.
  • the end plate 34 of the separator unit 23 is provided with a threaded plug or screw 47 mounted in a threaded bore in the plate 34 and having its inner end shaped as a valve disc 47a, which can be brought to seal the reject outlet 45 from the vortex chamber 44 in that the plug 47 is screwed inwards. In this way the communication between the reject outlet 45 of the vortex chamber 44, and the openings 42 in the tubular sleeve 32 can be interrupted.
  • the other end plate 39 of the separator unit is provided with a threaded plug 48 mounted in a threaded bore in the plate 39 and provided at its inner end with a valve disc 48a, which can be brought to seal the accept outlet 46 from the vortex chamber 44 in that the plug 48 is screwed inwards.
  • the communication between the vortex chamber 44 and the openings 43 in the wall of the tubular sleeve 37 can be interrupted.
  • the internal thread 36 at the outer end of the sleeve 32 is complementary or identical to the internal thread 41 at the outer end of the other tubular sleeve 37 and fits consequently the external thread on the short sleeve 40. Consequently, the reject end of one separator unit can be joined to the accept end of another separator unit, in that the first unit is screwed with the internal thread 36 at its reject end onto the sleeve 40 at the accept end of the second separator unit.
  • the replaced separator unit is disconnected from the new separator unit, which is now mounted in the vessel 1 and which can be put into operation in that its plugs 47 and 48 are screwed outwards so that the reject outlet and accept outlet of the unit are openedand put into communication with the reject compartment 6 and the accept compartment 8 respectively. It is appreciated that such a replacement of a separator unit with a new separator unit can be carried out in short time and in a very simple way without any leakage of suspension or liquid from the vessel 1 or any overflow of liquid or suspension between the different compartments 6, 7 and 8 in the vessel.
  • tubular sleeves 32 and 37 and also the end plates 37 and 39 with the valve plugs 47 and 48 are identical to each other, which reduces the costs for the manufacture and stock-keeping of parts for the separator units.
  • the illustrated embodiment of a vortex separator apparatus requires a comparatively small floor space as it has to be accessible only at the end walls 2 and 3 of the vessel 1. Further, the necessary height to ceiling is limited to a height corresponding to the diameter of the vessel 1, or the height necessary for the operating personnel.
  • the separator units may instead of a circular cross-section, have an elliptical or polygonal cross-section.
  • mount the vessel 1 with its axis vertical, and consequently with the separator units vertical, in which case, however, means must be provided for retaining the separator units in axial direction in the vessel 1.
  • Such an arrangement would, however, probably make thereplacement of the separator units in the separator somewhat more complicated.
  • inject compartment, the reject-compartment and the accept compartment are joined to form an integral vessel as in the embodiment of the invention described in the foregoing, but these compartments couldalso be erected separately, side by side, possibly somewhat spaced from each other.
  • these compartments couldalso be erected separately, side by side, possibly somewhat spaced from each other.
  • the reject, inject and accept compartments have a plane-parallel shape with the individual separator units mounted with their longitudinal axes mutually parallel. It could also be contemplated, however, to design the accept, inject and reject compartments, as annular concentric compartments formed by concentrically mounted cylinders, in which case the individual separator units would extend radially through the concentric annular compartments.
  • a problem that may arise in a separator designed as described in the foregoing and illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 3, particularly when used for cleaning or separating fibrous suspensions, is caused by the fact that the heavier fraction, the so called reject, which is discharged from the individual separator units 23 into the common reject compartment 6, may have a comparatively thick and viscous consistency. This may cause that the reject flow within the reject compartment from the individual separator units to the discharge opening from the reject compartment will no longer be uniform in all parts of the reject compartment but may cease completely in some parts of the reject compartment. It is realized that the result will be that the separator units located in these parts of the reject compartments are put out of operation.
  • the vortex separator illustrated in FIGS. 4 to 6 comprises just as the separator illustrated in FIGS; 1 to 3 a cylindrical vessel 1, which has plane parallel end walls 2 and 3 and which is divided in an inject compartment 7, an accept compartment 8, and a reject compartment 6 by plane internal partition walls 4 and 5.
  • the vessel I is provided with an additional internal partition wall 49 so that the vessel contains an additional compartment 50, which is located between the inject compartment 7 and the reject compartment 6 and which is used for supplying dilution liquid to the reject.
  • the dilution liquid is fed into the compartment 50 through a pipe connection 51.
  • the individual separator units 23 extend through the vessel 1 in the manner described in the foregoing and as illustrated with dotted lines in FIG. 4 for a single separator unit. Consequently, each individual separator unit 23 extends through all compartments 6, 7, 8 and 50 in the vessel,-and through aligned openings in all walls of the vessel, that is the partition walls 4, 49, 5 as well as the end walls 2 and 3.
  • the openings for the separator unit 23 in the additional partition wall 49 are designated with 52.
  • the individual separator units have their inject ports 26 located within the inject compartment 7, their accept ports 43 located within the accept compartment 8, and their reject ports 42 located within the reject compartment 6.
  • the separator units 23 have no openings at all.
  • the openings 22 in the end wall 3, the openings 21 in the end-wall 5, the openings 52 in the additional partition wall 49 and the openings 19 in the outer end wall 2 are sealed by means of suitable seal rings 24 sealing against the outer surface of the separator units 23 in the same way as in the separator shown in FIGS. 1 to 3.
  • seal rings are omitted for at least some of the separator units, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, wherefore at these separator units an annular clearance or flow passage exists from the dilution liquid compartment 50 to the reject compartment along and about the surface of the separator unit 23. Consequently, during operation of the separator, dilution liquid fed into the dilution liquid compartment 50 through the feeder pipe 51 will from the compartment 50, flow into the reject compartment 6 through the openings 20 in the partition wall 4 along and about those separator units 23 which are not provided with any seal rings in the openings 20, as indicated by arrows 53 in FIG. 3.
  • the dilution liquid from the compartment 50 will flow into the reject compartment 6 along the outer surface of the separator units, whereby the dilution liquid keeps the reject ports 42 of the separator units clear so that any clogging of these reject ports is prevented, and the dilution liquid will also dilute the reject in the adjacent portions of the reject compartment 6 so that the reject can flow more easily towards the outlet 16 of the reject compartment 6.
  • the separator units 23, at which dilution liquid is fed into the reject compartment, are framed by a dash-dotted line in FIG. 5.
  • the separator units, at which dilution liquid is to be fed into the reject compartment in the manner described, are selected onthe basis of operation experiences so that the dilution liquid is fed into those parts of the reject compartment where it has been noticed that stoppages in the reject flow easily occur.
  • FIGS. 4 to 6 the embodiment of a vortex separator according to the invention illustrated in FIGS. 4 to 6 has a very simple and unexpensive structural design and that it makes it very easy to select those partsof the reject compartment into which dilution liquid shall be fed, on the basis of tests and operation results.
