Definitions

• the invention relates to a method for reading out heavy admixtures, in particular stones made of grain material, in which the material is fed onto a shift table and is guided in a stratified manner over the inclined, air-flowed and vibrating shift table surface in such a way that the heavy admixtures lying directly on the shift table are upstream of the table promoted and removed separately at the higher table end.
• the heavy admixtures lying on the table surface are caused by the swinging and conveying movement of the table surface in the direction of the higher end of the table, the stones being completely separated in an end separation zone and discharged via the corresponding outlet.
• the main disadvantage of this well-known solution is the specially required triangular shape, which only allows a limited increase in the throughput.
• a grain separator is known in which an air flow is generated with the aid of a fan arranged under an inclined and perforated chute.
• the housing which houses the entire separator and fan, is rigidly arranged and only the receiving table can be moved.
• the invention is based on the object of providing a new method for reading out heavy admixtures, in particular a new stone selection method and a device for carrying out this method or a new dry gravity reading system which allows a higher throughput.
• This object is achieved in a generic method in that the material is fed as a wide-area stream in the region of the separation zone of the material layers located at the higher end of the table.
• the first practical experiment with the new idea of the invention was surprising in two ways. Firstly, the readout rate was immediately unexpectedly high, and secondly, the inventor chose an infeed point which, according to all previous conviction, must have been wrong among experts. However, she did achieve the desired success. So far, not least based on the idea of pre-separation (see DE-PS 1 913 707), the method was presented in two spatially and temporally separate steps. The first step was stratification, the layer near the table should contain all heavy admixtures, and only as a subsequent step should the layering provided in a channel be fed undisturbed onto the table surface and the stones to the outlet for the stones. It was only in the area of the highest reading table end that the stones were effectively separated and routed separately.
• the heavy admixtures should usually only make up a very small percentage of the grain, so that the final separation zone had the smallest dimensions (the tip of a triangle), because only a small proportion of the entire product quantity was carried up to that point.
• the final separation zone or the table inclination set incorrectly, where too much grain could get there or if the local air flow was chosen unfavorably, then either the stone selection was bad or the stones were several times more good grains.
• the final separation zone was then also a point that always had to be specially monitored. The thought of pouring a large amount of fresh grain in the stone separation zone onto the table would have been completely unrealistic. Any disturbance at this point showed an immediate deterioration in the way the reading tables work.
• the material is fed in as wide as possible and the material is fed directly into the area of the separation zone at the top of the table.
• the shift table should work as a good shift table in that it is designed in such a way that the heavy admixtures below are conveyed upwards. In this way, with a product task at the higher table end, the most heavy admixtures remain in the Area of the separation zone. Should they be dragged down a bit, they will migrate back up to the final separation zone with even greater certainty than all previously known solutions. Now it is only a question of the clean design of the final separation zone, the correct setting of the air volume and table inclination to achieve an optimal way of working.
• the invention enables particularly good conditions for easy practical optimization in that, by creating a wide stream of material, the final separation takes place at the maximum possible width, that is to say without an unnecessary layer thickness.
• the new invention now allows a whole number of further, particularly advantageous configurations.
• a uniform layer flow diffuse upstream, slightly downward
• the product flow is fed directly into the region of the reversal of flow direction.
• the material is first fed to a first, uppermost vibrating table and at least a first part of the heavy material fraction flowing upstream of the table and consisting of a mixture of heavier grain material and stones is guided at the upper end of the first table in such a way that the heavy goods fraction from there to the upper area
• End region of a table surface through which the same air flows is fed to a second, lower layer table located underneath.
• the material is moved upwards on the upper layer table with a lower conveying component than on the lower layer table, and a second part of the heavy material fraction is fed from the upper layer table to the lower end region and / or the middle of the lower layer table.
• the product stream is particularly preferably fed in via a guide plate arranged at a distance above the table surface.
• the product stream can advantageously be conducted across the entire table width of the shift table.
• the method according to the invention is blown onto the separation zone in the direction of a reversal of the direction of flow of the heavy grain material migrating up the table.
• the blow-back flow is conducted between the guide plate and the layer table. In this way, it is in particular possible to guide the air flow in a simple manner, through which the heavy and light particles of the goods can be separated.
• the at least one shift table, together with a covering assigned to it for recirculation mode is set in common vibrations with separate guides for supply and exhaust air.
• the good is continuously shaken when the good is fed onto the good table.
• the cladding together with the layer table, forms a box which is supported for swinging and the box, including the layer table, is set in common vibrations.
• the material feed takes place as a wide-area stream in the area of the separation zone of the material layers located at the higher table end, the air is removed from the center of the top panel and is supplied in a wide area in the area of the lower table end.
• the circulating air in the region above the central air discharge and the lower air supply is cleaned of dust components. This allows the flowing air to be cleaned advantageously at a time when undesired eddy formation occurs Laxative elements for cleaning are not yet able to interfere with the air flow acting on the table.
• the material on the upper layer table is guided over a trough-shaped recess (stone and material swamp), the heavy material fraction that enters the recess is passed over bottom openings of the recess and then over an opposite direction to the upper layer table -
• An inclined slide is directed to the middle floor of the lower layer table, whereas the light material fraction overflowing in the flow direction of the trough-shaped depression of the upper layer table is fed to an outlet for light material.
• the heavy layer can advantageously permanently sink completely into the stone sump and be discharged directly downwards. This results in a very high degree of selection for the heaviest admixtures and, in addition, a clean separation can be carried out with only minimal additional effort.
• a shifting suction hood and a stationary platform arranged above it are assigned to the shift table, the material being fed in via an inlet in the stationary platform, passed via flexible sleeves into a distribution box of a dining channel that moves with the suction hood, and cascading from the distribution box a guide plate is poured, so that multiple falling currents are generated across the entire width of the shift table.
• the invention further relates to a device for separating and reading out heavy admixtures from a product stream, in particular stones from grain material, with a feed channel for feeding the product stream onto an air-flowed, vibratable, inclined shift table with an oscillating conveyor component in the direction of the higher table end.

• a feed channel for feeding the product stream onto an air-flowed, vibratable, inclined shift table with an oscillating conveyor component in the direction of the higher table end.
• the first test results with the new device were particularly surprisingly good, since with the same readout rate and the same air consumption the material throughput could in some cases be increased by more than 50%, without the construction of the new device requiring major structural expenditure.
• the feed channel opens out over the entire width of the shift table. This has the advantage that a wide and generous loading of the material to be separated is possible.
• the mouth of the feed channel has a guide plate arranged at a distance above the shift table.
• This guide plate has the advantage of distributing the material to be loaded evenly over the shift table and at the same time serving on its underside as a guide for air currents.
• the feed channel has a distribution box and a guide plate, which form a cascade for the feed product flow to generate a uniform falling flow over the entire width of the shift table.
• the guide plate has an overflow edge and bottom openings in the region of its end pointing in the direction of flow, in such a way that the majority of the material flows as a wide-area flow of material onto the shift table and the heavy ones Additives can be drained through the bottom openings.
• this overflow edge a particularly wide area of the product flow is achieved, because after the full width of the trough in front of this overflow edge has been filled, a uniform flow then flows, which is fed by the trough, down onto the layer table below.
• an end separation zone for reading the stones is arranged between the guide plate and the table surface of the layer table.
• the lower layer table preferably has a larger conveying component in the upward direction than the upper layer table, the surface of which is rougher than that of the upper layer table.
• the upper layer table advantageously serves as a pre-layer table. It is also advantageous if the upper layer table has at least one discharge opening serving as a feed channel for the lower layer table at its higher end. In this way, a small fraction of heavy goods can be directed directly to the higher end of the lower table.
• the feed channel for the lower shift table particularly preferably extends over the entire width of the upper shift table, in order in turn to produce a uniform distribution of material on the lower shift table.
• the two shift tables are advantageously arranged to one another in such a way that the upper shift table feeds well onto the upper table end of the lower shift table. In this way it is possible that almost the entire proportion of the material to be separated is fed in at the location of the lower table where the unexpectedly good separation is possible.
• the at least one shift table is particularly preferably part of a box which vibrates together with it and is designed for recirculation mode.
• the material feed is part of the box. This has the advantage that the material feed resonates with the box and, as a result of this oscillating movement, the material is loosened before it hits the shaking table and forms a so-called veil. That veil is the guarantee for a wide distribution on the table. In addition, with simultaneous cleaning due to the shaking movement, the feeder can also be cleaned.
• the following are provided within the box: an air suction space and a circulating air supply duct separate therefrom, which opens in the region of the lower end of the at least one shift table.
• This makes it possible to design the air suction space and also the circulating air supply duct so generously in terms of size that no large constrictions trigger undesired eddies or other unpleasant flow effects.
• the entire air flow can be guided through the tables without interference within the box and, in particular in the width of the lower surface 'of the bottom table, can pass through this evenly over its full width.

• With the lateral feed of goods it is still possible to feed the goods to be fed into the middle of the shift table to be fed.
