Definitions
- the subject of the invention is a method for automatically measuring solid matter particles of pulp suspension in which a sample of pulp suspension is taken and scanned and the amount and quality of solids are examined from the picture. Furthermore, the subject of the invention is a device to apply the method including a frame, a reservoir for the sample, a sample feeding unit, a camera device to scan the sample and an imaging device to measuring the amount and the quality of solids.
- the purpose of the invention is to provide a method and a device with which the earlier mentioned problems are prevented. Furthermore, the purpose of the invention is to provide a method and a device utilizing of which the definition of impurities may be carried out near the source of the problem instead of examining the highly processed final product. Furthermore, the purpose of the invention is to provide a method and a device, which are automatized, simple and reliable, and by using which subjective mistakes that always occur when using visual definition are prevented.
- a sample of pulp suspension with known consistency of dry substances is fed at known input speed onto a movable wire moving at known speed and functioning as a transporting mechanism and constructed to be an endless loop, water is removed from the sample on this wire with a drying device and the sample is transported continuously to the sphere of a camera where the sample is scanned and on the basis of this image the amount and the quality of solids of the sample are measured.
- the image is analyzed with a known image analysis device automatically and the whole process according to the method is automatic.
- a wire or a mechanism equivalent to it is a very suitable transport to this purpose and an endless loop is a simple, advantageous and reliable construction solution.
- the input speed and transporting speed are constants or they are known/regulated/controlled such that the speed is known.
- the method is completely automatic and therefore the results are reliable and do not depend on human uncertainty and errors. Furthermore, the device can function independently for long periods of time.
- the method allows to measuring solids, impurities, for example, in pulp suspension immediately after it has been produced, so the results are available at that moment. A troublesome and monotonous stage made by hand can be quickly completed by using automation. Compared with the commonly used definition of the final product intermediate processes may be passed and the accuracy of the method gets remarkable better and problems are noticed earlier so they do not proceed to the final product.
- the amount of the sample fed onto the wire is measured in respect with the area of the wire by measuring the amount of unfed sample in respect with total mass or volume before starting to feed the sample and after a certain time when feeding has started by calculating the difference of these measurements and proportion this difference to the area of wire passing the feeding device in the same time period and calculated from the speed of the wire and known width of the wire.
- the amount of the scanned and analyzed sample must be known in order to be able to inform the amount of measured solids as ratio of the amounts of solids and sample, that is as percentage besides the absolute amount.
- Measured amount of solids may be proportioned by qualification classes to the amount of analyzed sample, which is necessary when utilizing the results of the measurements, by adding automatically to the scanned information the information known or measured during the treatment of the sample about the amount of the sample to be dosed onto the wire in respect with the area of the wire.
- the pulp suspension sample in the head box is fed through a feeding opening the height of which is regulated with a regulating device to a transporting device by its own hydrostatic pressure.
- a regulating device to a transporting device by its own hydrostatic pressure.
- water is removed from the sample by negative pressure in a drying device. With negative pressure it is possible to accomplish efficient drying.
- the sample is scanned after drying with a camera against a light from a light fixture placed in the opposite side of the transporting device.
- a light source placed like this the camera is provided with a good light.
- the device there is a feeding unit for the sample the feeding speed of which may be regulated, a transporting device for the sample e.g. an endless wire, supported to the frame movable and a drying device to remove water from the sample on the transporting device.
- the device is fully automatic, therefore the results are reliable and not dependent on human uncertainties and errors. Furthermore, the device can function independently for long periods of time when necessary.
- reservoir 1 for the sample which is a head box and where the amount of the sample to be fed may be regulated
- a wire 5 functioning as a transporting device under it to transport the sample
- a drying device 4 functioning by negative pressure to remove moist from the sample on the wire
- a camera device 7 placed at a distant from the wire to scan the sample
- a light fixture 6 to light the sample placed on the opposite side of the camera device.
- an image analysis device in the device to measuring the amount and quality of solids and known measuring equipment or equivalent to measure the amount of the sample in various points as well as measuring equipment to measure the speed of the wire and the feeding speed of the sample, which are not demonstrated in the figure.
- the wire has the shape of an endless loop and it is driven with the help of a driving roller 8 and other rollers 9,10 and 11.
- the device functions as follows: a certain amount of sample, diluted to a certain consistency is brought either manually or automatically to the head box 1.
- the sample flows down because of its own hydrostatic pressure through the feeding opening in the lower part of the head box onto the wire 5 mainly as a constant matt at known speed.
- the height of the feeding opening can be regulated by moving the upper edge 2 of the opening with a regulating device 3.
- the pressure is kept constant with an overflow pipe.
- the wire moves as an endless loop supported by driving roller 8 and other rollers 9, 10 and 11 to marked direction transporting the sample with it.
- the feeding speed of the sample to the wire is controlled by measuring the amount of the sample in the head box at certain intervals.
- the sample then proceeds onto the suction box where it is dried by negative pressure. After drying the sample enters the measuring point.
- the sample lightened by the light fixture 6 under the wire is scanned by a video camera 7.
- Solids are measured on the basis of the camera picture with an automatic imaging programme or by other means. By calculating the amount of the sample on the area of the picture on the basis of the feeding speed of the sample and moving speed and width of the wire one gets the amount of solids as a figure of concentration of original sample as demonstrated earlier. The quality of solid may also be determined by analyzing the picture.
- the sample is removed from the wire with a liquid or gas spray realized with a jet 12 on the opposite side; in the model developed at the moment compressed air is used, but other solutions are possible as well.
- a liquid or gas spray realized with a jet 12 on the opposite side in the model developed at the moment compressed air is used, but other solutions are possible as well.
- the same sample may be circulated constantly through earlier mentioned phases.
