  • the invention relates to a sorter for cleaning a Fibrous suspension.
  • Sorters are machines used for cleaning in the paper industry a stock suspension consisting of water, fibrous materials and Dirt particles exist. In this case, an inflow flow over a Screening device performed, the acceptance stream consisting of water and fibers flowing through the screen. A partial stream, called Reject flow, consisting of water, fibers and contaminants, is in the generally at the end opposite the feed stream deducted.
  • Such a sorter is generally rotationally symmetrical executed and consists of a housing with a tangential arranged inlet, a cylindrical screen basket, usually with holes or vertical slots and a rotating rotor. The task of the rotor is to keep the screen slots free is achieved by blades rotating just on the surface of the screen.
  • the Acceptance flows in a so-called acceptance room, which is often conical is carried out, collected and deducted radially at one point.
  • the Reject flow is generally on the opposite side of the inlet Side of the screen basket in a mostly ring-shaped reject space and subtracted from this tangentially.
  • Such a sorter is e.g. from the US 4,268,381 known.
  • the disadvantage of these sorting machines is in the fact that a relatively large reject space creates the danger of clogging occurs at low flow rates.
  • the aim of the invention is therefore to improve the To create flow conditions in the sorter to create a Reduction of the energy used with increased production and To achieve dirt separation.
  • the invention is therefore characterized in that in the inlet area A stationary installation between the pipe socket and the end of the rotor is provided, which can be rotationally symmetrical. Thereby becomes a significant improvement in flow conditions and in a further consequence is a reduction in the energy used.
  • An advantageous development of the invention is characterized in that that the installation of a cone, a truncated cone, hemisphere, spherical segment, Spherical layer, paraboloid or double-shell hyperboloid.
  • a favorable embodiment of the invention is characterized in that that when installed as a cone or truncated cone, the cone angle ⁇ is between 10 ° and 60 °.
  • a favorable further development of the invention is characterized in that that the axis of the inlet nozzle is arranged parallel to the cone jacket is. This allows the flow to be guided better and the Energy losses can be reduced further.
  • a favorable alternative embodiment of the invention is thereby characterized in that the installation is a spiral body, the Slope of the spiral can be chosen such that the Flow velocity in the inlet area over the entire Sorting basket width is constant.
  • An advantageous development of the invention is characterized in that that the installation is arranged centrally.
  • An advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterized in that that the acceptance room is double conical.
  • An advantageous development of the invention is characterized in that that the sorter is designed as a double machine.
  • a favorable further development of the invention is characterized in that that the inlet takes place axially through the rotor.
  • a favorable embodiment of the invention is characterized in that that the drive-side rotor part in height equal to or greater than that flowed in and flowed through, the drive side facing away rotor part.
  • a favorable embodiment of the invention is characterized in that that the inlet is in the middle from the side.
  • An advantageous development of the invention is characterized in that that the acceptance outlet is provided twice.
  • An advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterized in that that the sorter is arranged horizontally.
  • a favorable further development of the invention is characterized in that that for presorting a screen basket rotating with the rotor in Inflow area is provided, with rotating also in the pre-sorting area Wings can be provided.
  • a favorable further development of the invention is characterized in that that several blades are distributed over the height and / or circumference of the rotor are provided.
  • FIG. 2 an alternative embodiment of the invention
  • Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of a Double machine
  • Fig. 4 shows a further variant of the invention
  • Fig. 5 a 3-D representation of a variant of the invention
  • Fig. 6 shows the area for a integrated presorting
  • Fig. 7 is a diagram of the dependence of specific energy for sieve flow
  • Fig. 8 is a diagram of the Dirt point reduction for sieve flow represents.
  • Fig. 1 shows a sorter 1, the one through an inlet port 2 Fibrous suspension is fed for cleaning.
  • Inlet 3 In the area of Inlet 3 is provided, which is shown here as a truncated cone is.
  • the "tip" of the truncated cone points in the direction of the rotor 4.
  • the Installation 3 can be designed both as a hollow body and as a solid body his.
  • the flank angle is ⁇ des Truncated cone between 10 ° and 60 °.
  • the fiber suspension enters the Space between rotor 4 and sieve 5 and is through the sieve promoted to acceptance room 6.
  • the housing of the acceptance room is double-conical, i.e. the housing tapers approximately from the The upper edge of the acceptance outlet 7 is conical towards the reject space, whereby the angle of the acceptance room for a constant flow rate assuming a uniform flow through the sieve is laid out.
  • the rotor 4 of the sorter 1 is for a uniform flow against the sieve, which causes a low thickening behavior above the screen height, designed. It has the shape of a parabola, so that the axial Flow velocity within the strainer basket when assumed uniform outflow through the sieve remains constant. Alternatively the shape of the rotor can also be approximated using a cone shape.
  • the reject space designed such that flow velocities greater than 2.5 m / sec with or without additional input of stirring energy by the rotor available. This practically prevents constipation.
  • Fig. 2 shows an analog arrangement of a sorter 1, here the Inlet nozzle 2 is arranged so that the suspension parallel to Shell of the truncated cone 3 is supplied. This allows the Energy loss that is otherwise present when the flow is diverted, be avoided.
  • Fig. 3 shows the execution of a top machine, as for high Production performance is carried out.
  • the rotor is e.g. as Double parabolic rotor 4, 4 'or double cone rotor.
  • the Reject deduction 8, 8 'and the screen basket 5, 5' is in duplicate intended.
  • the acceptance room 6, 6 ' is double-conical, i.e. again that the housing is approx. from the upper edge of the Acceptance outlets 7, 7 'tapered towards the reject space.
  • the stock suspension is here again supplied via the supply nozzle 2 and in the embodiment shown axially guided by the rotor.
  • the drive-side rotor part 4 in height L1 equal to or greater than the inflow and through flow, the drive side facing rotor part 4 'with the height L2.
  • the suspension occurs in the middle Area through openings 9 from the flowed through rotor part 4 'and is distributed here in both directions. It occurs like a simple one Sorter through the sieve basket 5, 5 'into the acceptance room 6, 6', the is also double conical here.
  • the reject flows both up and down and is here in a reject space 8, 8 ' removed from the machine.
  • the Inlet also take place centrally from one side.
  • the accept outlet can either twice, i.e. above (7 ') or below (7) or simply in the middle to be appropriate.
  • the sorting machine can also be in a lying position be carried out.
  • Fig. 4 shows a variant of the invention, a vertical installation standing, around 270 ° rotating sheet 3 'is provided.
  • This Sheet 3 ' uses its spiral shape to direct the flow of material from the inlet 2 coming evenly into the strainer basket 5.
  • this type of installation 3 ' shown in supervision. It can be seen that the sheet 3 'at Point 16 begins and then spirals around the center (the axis) runs up to point 17.
  • the space 15 (shown hatched) between Sheet 3 'and the outer wall of the sorter can remain free.
  • Essential is that the flow cross-section decreases continuously and thus a largely uniform flow rate is given is adapted to the inflow of the suspension into the screen basket 5 is.
  • FIG. 5 shows the 3-D representation of a further variant of the invention.
  • the Installation 3 is attached to the lid, the surface spiraling in Direction of the strainer runs.
  • the fiber suspension is from Inlet 2 forth on the surface facing the screen basket directly into the Screen basket steered, here also the outflow is taken into account that the flow rate is practically constant. Thereby energy losses can be minimized.
  • FIG. 6 now shows the upper part of a sorter 1 with an integrated one Pre-sorting.
  • the sorter 1 via the inlet nozzle 2 Fibrous suspension fed.
  • a Heavy part separation is in the upper area of the A sorting area 10 is provided in the sorter 1, into which the suspension passes through a sieve 11. This allows specifically heavy parts and large-scale impurities that come from dirty or high soiled fibers result, be removed well.
  • a rotor 12 runs along with the rotor 4 via a Extension 13 is connected. The heavy parts leave the pre-sorting area through a nozzle 14.
  • the rotor 12 can in the pre-sorting area 10 both in the feed stream (as shown) or in the acceptance stream, then another fine sorting in the lower area of the Sorter 1 is fed, run. If the rotor 12 is running in the feed stream, see above are the strong by the rotating cleaning blades of the rotor 12 abrasive heavy parts are held on the surface of the Open sieve 11 and damage it.
  • the specifically heavy parts are centrifuged outwards.
  • a longer service life of the screen baskets in the Pre-sorting area achieved, on the other hand, by means of the targeted barrier Pre-sorting basket sustainable storage of heavy parts in the centrifugal re-sorting area reached.
  • the separate discharge of rough and Smaller impurities lead to increased performance (throughput and increased effectiveness) compared to conventional sorting machines.
  • this variant can also be used with a Double cone rotor can be executed.
  • Fig. 7 shows the diagram of the energy requirement over the Sieve flow, here a curve for previous sorters and a Curve for the sorter according to the invention with a tapered installation is shown in the inlet area.
