Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for obtaining a heavy and a light material fraction from a fine grain mineral mixture under the influence of centrifugal force, the fine grain mineral mixture being mixed with a fluid being fed in as a fluidized material flow in the direction of a main axis, and a device for carrying out the method.
  • a continuously operating centrifuge for separating solid-liquid mixtures is already known (DE-PS 915 799), in which several sieve drums are arranged on the arms of a rotor and can be rotated in a planetary manner about the vertical rotor axis of rotation. Each sieve drum can also be rotated about its own axis parallel to the rotor axis of rotation.
  • the centrifuge also has a distribution device for supplying the mixture to the screen drums, a material discharge device and a drive device for the rotor and the screen drums.
  • centrifuge known (DE-OS 29 02 691), which is also intended for the continuous separation of solid-liquid mixtures and which has planetary arranged, counter-rotating filter drums with a perforated or closed jacket, in which the material to be centrifuged, however, does not move over the drum jacket but the solids are removed by means of screws or troughs passing through the sieve drums.
  • This centrifuge is also unsuitable for separating fluidized fine-grain mineral mixtures because it only allows liquid to be separated while the solids are being discharged together.
  • a device for obtaining a light material and a heavy material fraction from a fine grain mineral mixture is known (DE-PS, 11 33 321), in which a slurry containing the mixture is fed axially to a cylindrical vessel.
  • the vessel has at least one screw-shaped discharge groove for the heavy goods fraction in the cylindrical wall and contains a propoller with which the added slurry is set in rotation.
  • the heavy material fraction is discharged in the upper part of the vessel, which is set into rotational and longitudinal vibrations, while the light material fraction is used by means of a plunger or the like. is suctioned off.
  • Such a device is only for the preparation of very feir sem material, is of relatively complicated and therefore expensive construction, also tends to malfunction and only achieves low throughputs per machine unit.
  • a central shaft 1a is rotatably mounted in, for example, ball bearings 1.
  • the feeding of the symbolically represented in FIG. 1 by an arrow 2 Fluidized material flow takes place via a pipe 3 coaxial with the central shaft 1a, so that the material flow is fed in the direction of the main axis A of the separating device determined by the central shaft 1a.
  • the fine grain mineral mixture to be separated into weight fractions is mixed as usual in a storage container with liquid, in particular water or gas, in particular air, for which purpose the storage container contains an agitator or is equipped with a blower.
  • Devices for such treatment of material to be separated are well known, so that they do not need to be described in detail and are also not shown in the drawing.
  • the device is first described using the example of wet goods to be separated, ie goods mixed with liquid.
  • the crop stream 2 is divided into several, in the exemplary embodiment shown, into four crop streams 2a.
  • the central shaft 1a carries a centrifugal pump 6 at the input end as a centrifugal distributor, the housing 7 of which on the central shaft 1a e.g. is flanged and has as outlets 8 four laterally extending metering arms 8a in the form of flanged pipe branches.
  • a pipe section 5 is flanged to the inlet of the centrifugal pump 6, to which the pipe 3 is connected via a seal 4, such as is used to seal rotating shafts.
  • each cutting element 14 has an essentially tubular hollow body 15, the inner lateral surface 16 of which forms the cutting element wall.
  • a pipe bend 11 is flanged, which is connected at its outlet end to one of the sheath elements 14 via a seal 17, which is designed in the same or similar manner as the seal 4.
  • the central shaft 1a rotates with the cutting elements 14 arranged on its support arms or support disks 12 about the main axis A and at the same time and independently of this, the cutting elements 14 rotate about their longitudinal axes B.
  • the drive device required for this can be of any design, However, it is preferably set up in such a way that the directions of rotation and the speeds can be selected for the central shaft 1a and for the cutting elements 14.
  • the rotating drive of the central shaft 1a by a drive member 29 and the rotating drive of the cutting element 14 is shown schematically by a gear pair 19.
  • the cutting elements 14, which will be described in detail below, are very sensitive to changes in throughput. Changes in the volume and / or in the fine-grain mineral mixture proportion of the partial material flow to the cutting element would inevitably and automatically also result in a change in the cutting performance of the cutting element. Uniformity of the good task is therefore an essential prerequisite for high cutting performance.
  • the continuously supplied material flow is therefore divided into several, here in four metered partial material flows with the same volume and the same proportion of fine grain mineral mixture.
  • the separating device contains the centrifugal pump 6 already mentioned above as a centrifugal distributor, which is fed with fine grain mineral mixture from the storage container and from which all the cutting elements 14 are fed uniformly.
  • the dosage can be adjusted to the specification of the respective crop flow, e.g. the slurry, by simply changing the impeller with the blades or blades of the centrifugal pump, and on the other hand the speed of the centrifugal pump can be optimized for the given fine grain mineral mixture.
  • the impeller 9 of the centrifugal pump 6 has as many blades or vanes 10 as there are cutting elements 14, the vanes 10 being aligned with the metering arms 8a of the pump housing 7 (FIG. 2 ).
  • the impeller 9 or, in the exemplary embodiment shown, the pump cross with the blades or blades 10 is designed as an exchangeable structural unit which can be adjusted and fastened on the end face of the central shaft 1a.
  • each metered partial goods flow 2a e.g. a turbid flow consisting of a liquid and a material-dependent, different proportion of fine-grain mineral mixture is introduced in an almost laminar flow into the associated separating element 14, the tubular hollow body 15 of the rotationally symmetrical separating element 14 with the separating wall 16 peripherally enclosing the partial material flow and for this separating area forms.
  • the partial material flow rotates in a first section of the separation area at the same angular velocity as the partition wall about its longitudinal axis B.
  • the tubular hollow body 15 of the cutting element 14 has a first, cylindrical section 15a, in which, as shown in FIG Carrier wings 18 are arranged.
  • This intrinsic rotation of the partial material flow centrifuges the fine grain mineral mixture in this first section against the septum section 16a.
  • the partial material flow with the cutting element 14, which rotates about its longitudinal axis B is also rotated about the main axis A lying outside the cutting element 14, preferably at a speed different from the speed of the self-rotation.
  • the partial material flow with the already pre-sorted fine-grain mineral mixture enters the second section, in which, according to the invention, its own rotation slows down and the partial material flow or the material plug is guided in a screw-like path along the partition 16b of this second section to the discharge.
  • the driver wings 18 are omitted in the second section of the cutting element 14.
  • a plurality of screw-thread-like grooves or grooves 20 are preferably provided in the second section of the cutting element 14 in the partition 16b, the pitch direction of which is selected such that, in the direction of rotation of the cutting element 14 provided about its longitudinal axis B, the cover layer of the partial product flow or product plug against the discharge is screwed.
  • the feed to the discharge does not come to a standstill due to the frictional resistance in the screw thread-like grooves or grooves 20, the heavy material fraction lying in the grooves or grooves 20 on the partition 16b with an additional, in the direction of the discharge acting force component.
  • This additional force component for the material transport is preferably generated in a simple manner in that the second section of the separation area is continuously widened towards the discharge, ie the second section of the cutting element 14 has a conical shape with a diameter increasing towards the discharge.
  • the device can also be operated with a horizontally arranged central shaft 1a. Accordingly, while the separation of the fine grain mineral mixture takes place in the first section 15a, the separated heavy load fraction is transported to the discharge in the second section 15b, the second section 15b being designed as a preferably conical screw tube conveyor.
  • the second section 15b By forming the second section 15b in the form of a screw tube conveyor, an even better separation of the fine grain mineral mixture is achieved. Since the fluidization and pulsation of the fine grain mineral mixture caused by the combination of the rotary movements about the main axis A and about the longitudinal axis B also continues to act in the second section 15b of the cutting element 14 and above all on the partition 16b, the screw threads are formed, i.e. a further concentration of the heavy goods fraction in the grooves or grooves 20, which require a much longer discharge time for the heavy goods fraction detected by them than for the inner layer comprising essentially light goods lying thereon.
  • the heavy goods fraction which is concentrated still further, arrives in a collecting space 21 provided in the second separating element section 15b, somewhat above its bottom 15c, which is formed by an annular wall 21a projecting inwardly from the separating wall 16b, and is made from this through preferably adjustable first discharge openings 22 which are distributed along the collecting space 21, carried out and discharged as usual.
  • the light material fraction located in the second section 15b of the cutting element 14 closer to the longitudinal axis B and the major part of the fluid, for example liquid, located in the center are attached radially through the circumference of the hollow body 15 to the bottom 15c arranged, preferably also adjustable second discharge openings 23.
  • each tubular cutting element 14 is surrounded in the region of the second section 15b by an outer jacket 25 which delimits an annular space 26 around the second section 15b.
  • the annular space 26 is connected to the interior of the second hollow body section 15b via a plurality of, for example, radial nozzle bores 27 (FIG. 4).
  • a line not shown in the drawing, for example leading from a hollow central shaft 1a to the annular space, supplies fluid, liquid or gas to the annular space 26, which is injected into the second section 15b through the nozzle bores 27.
  • the second section 15 b is equipped with screw threads, the nozzle bores 27 are arranged at the bottom of the grooves or grooves 20.
  • the fluid injected under pressure through the nozzle bores 27 is effective only in the fluidization lifting phase, so that the heavy material fraction accumulated on the partition 16b flows essentially radially through the fluid and is cleaned of any light goods particles still present in it through the injected fluid inwards to the longitudinal axis B, that is, washed or blown into the separated light material fraction and discharged with it.
  • the outer jacket 25 expediently has a longitudinal slot 28, in which, as shown in FIG.
  • the wall region delimiting one longitudinal side is placed obliquely outwards, so that air flows out when the cutting element rotates in the direction of the arrow the ambient atmosphere is pressed through the slot 28 into the annular space 26 and none additional supply lines to the annulus are required.
  • This above-described additional injection of gas, in particular air, into the second hollow body section 15b is particularly advantageous in the case of a dry material flow, that is to say in the case of a fine-grain mineral mixture mixed with gas, in particular air, and is therefore always provided when separating dry material.
  • the device is otherwise designed in the same way as above for the separation of wet fine-grain mineral mixture mixed with a liquid, in particular water, only with the difference that a centrifugal blower is used as a centrifugal distributor 6 instead of a centrifugal pump .
  • the rotor of the device that is, the central shaft 1a with the centrifugal distributor 6 and the cutting elements 14, is displaceably mounted to and fro along the main axis A, for example by the ball bearings 1 being mounted in the housing such that they can vibrate and an additional drive device is provided for swinging the central shaft 1a.
  • the central shaft 1a with its ball bearings 1 can be used to carry out such vibrations be mounted in oscillating bearings 31 arranged in the housing, comprising bearing bolts and leaf springs, and rest with their lower end face on an unbalance plate or knob plate 30, which is fixedly arranged in the housing.
  • the drive devices for the central shaft 1a and the cutting elements 14 can be adjusted with respect to the direction of rotation and rotational speed, so that the cutting elements 14 can rotate in the same or in the opposite direction as the central shaft 1a. Since both the rotational speed about the main axis A, which determines the metering of the partial product flows 2a, and the rotational speed of the cutting elements 14 during operation can be adjusted, an optimal cutting process can be created for each fine grain mineral mixture.
