Definitions
- the invention relates to a rotary slide valve according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the fixed perforated plates Arranged between the two pairs of perforated plates are two containers filled with adsorbent, which serve to hold water vapor contained in air.
- the two containers are connected to the rotating perforated plates and are rotated by a drive. Depending on the position of the perforated plates, this results in adsorption or desorption in the containers, the desorption in this case drying the containers.
- the fixed perforated plates have two control slots, each of which has the shape of a circular ring section. Since a control slot extends over 180 °, a position is possible in which both containers adsorb at the same time. The duration of the adsorption phase compared to the desorption phase is thereby extended.
- bores are also provided which make it possible to increase the pressure between the desorption and the adsorption phase or additionally to carry out a flushing operation in the container which has just been desorbed, by pressurizing oxygen-enriched air into the straight from an intermediate container desorbed container can flow.
- This known flat slide valve control is very complex because of the numerous grooves and bores of the intermediate store provided and because of numerous check valves which are intended to avoid the outflow of oxygen-enriched air from an additional store for the gas produced.
- a device for the selective adsorption of gas mixtures with a flat slide valve control is also known from EP 512 534 A1.
- a cylindrical container filled with adsorbent is divided into several separate segments, which alternate between adsorption and desorption phases.
- the flat slide controls two gas flows per segment with corresponding bores and grooves through fixed and rotatable control disks.
- a disadvantage of this known device is that the desorption is only advantageous with pure product gas, since when using a gas mixture which still contains constituents to be adsorbed, these are still in pipes, bores and Grooves of the device would remain so that in the subsequent adsorption phase the pure product gas obtained, which flows over the same pipes, bores and grooves, would be contaminated.
- product gas for desorbing ie purging the segments, however, the yield on the product gas is reduced, and when using a gas mixture which contains constituents to be adsorbed, the degree of purity of the product gas is reduced.
- a complex device for separating oxygen and nitrogen from air is known.
- the gas flows from and to eight containers filled with adsorbent are controlled by a common flat slide valve.
- the containers are partially connected in series, and a complex procedure for desorbing the containers is provided.
- the containers are connected to a vacuum source, and in another phase, pure nitrogen is additionally introduced into the containers in order to purge residual oxygen from the container.
- This known device including flat slide valve is very complex.
- the US 50 71 453 shows a plant for generating oxygen-enriched air with two alternating molecules larbetten, which are alternately fed with compressed air via a simple rotary valve. For desorption, product gas generated is introduced into the molecular bed to be desorbed.
- the known system is intended for the extraction of oxygen-enriched air for the crew of an aircraft, the system producing oxygen-enriched air especially at high altitudes in emergency situations.
- the object of the invention is to provide a rotary valve according to the characterizing part of claim l Ober ⁇ be designed so that with weni ⁇ gene as possible moving parts, a plurality of gas-carrying Leitun ⁇ gene in their opening and closing can be controlled. "In addition to using the Rotary valve in an oxygen enrichment system, these can be improved with regard to a higher yield of oxygen-enriched air.
- the rotary valve according to the invention comprises at least two oxygen inlet openings and two opposite oxygen outlet openings assigned to them, complete control of the outlet of oxygen-enriched air is possible.
- the rotary slide valve according to the invention thus controls two separate parts with the aid of only a single movable component Oxygen flows independent of compressed air and nitrogen flows.
- the known rotary valve In the known rotary valve according to DE-OS 25 56 097, on the other hand, it is only possible to control an oxygen flow to a limited extent.
- the known rotary valve has two openings, both of which are always open or closed at the same time. The purpose of this is to short-circuit the flow of produced, oxygen-enriched air in devices for oxygen enrichment of air, which work with two alternating containers, in order to ensure pressure equalization.
- La shows a cross section through the rotary slide valve according to the invention
- 1b shows a schematic view of a plant for oxygen enrichment of air with the rotary valve according to the invention
- Fig. 5 is a sectional view of the line
- the slide bearing rings 18, 19 are braced against the slide bearing bush 21 in the axial direction by the outer housing 16 and are thereby fixed in their position.
- the outer housing 16 consists of an upper and lower cover 27 and 29 and an intermediate ring bush 30, which rests in the radial direction on the slide bearing bush 21.
- Several screws 73 axially clamp the upper cover 27 relative to the lower cover 29 so that the slide bearing rings 18, 19 are also fixed thereby.
- the slide body 11, the upper and lower slide bearing rings 18, 19 and the slide bearing bush 21 are each made of ceramic material. The use of ceramic components has the advantage that, with a very low coefficient of friction, the components which slide on one another are as tight as possible, in particular with regard to the separation of the oxygen-carrying lines from the compressed air or nitrogen-carrying lines.
- the upper and lower covers 27, 29 and the ring bush 30 are made of metal. Because of the different thermal expansion coefficients of ceramic and metal, the inner housing 17 would expand differently than the outer housing 16 when there were changes in temperature, and, if there was too little radial play between the outer and inner housings 16, 17, the ceramic parts would burst . In order to eliminate the risk of bursting, an elastic seal 57 is provided between the slide bearing bushing 21 and the ring bushing 30 and between the upper and lower slide bearing rings 18, 19 and the upper and lower covers 27, 29, which changes the length compensated for changes in temperature of all parts.
- the housing 15 has four radial openings, which can be seen better in FIG. 2 and are explained in more detail below.
- the rotating part 87 has an axial bore into which the motor shaft of the rotary drive R is pressed.
- Four oxygen inlet connections are provided in the lower cover 29, of which only two, namely the oxygen inlet connections 50 and 50 'are shown.
- the upper cover 27 has two oxygen outlet connections 54, 54 'which are connected to two oxygen outlet openings 53, 55 in the housing 15, only one of which is shown.
- the rotary slide valve 10 shown in FIG. 1 a is installed in a plant for the oxygen enrichment of air, as is shown schematically in FIG. 1 b.
- the reference numbers used in FIG. 1 a are, if necessary, also correspondingly indicated in FIG. 1 b.
- the plant for the oxygen enrichment of air essentially consists of the rotary slide valve 10, a first and a second container 95, 97, both of which are filled with a zeolite fixed bed, and an oxygen store 111 for oxygen-enriched air.
- the first container 95 is connected by a line 99 to a radial compressed air outlet opening 45 in the housing 15 of the rotary valve 10.
- the compressed air outlet opening 45 also serves as a nitrogen inlet opening.
- the first container 95 has on its underside a container outlet 103 for oxygen-enriched air, hereinafter referred to as the container outlet 103 for oxygen. Since the system shown in Fig. Lb enriches air so strongly with oxygen that the oxygen-enriched air almost exclusively For the sake of simplicity, oxygen is referred to below as oxygen instead of oxygen-enriched air.
- the container outlet 103 for oxygen is connected by a line 107 to the first oxygen inlet connection 50 of the rotary valve 10.
- the oxygen outlet connection 54 of the rotary slide valve 10 is connected to the oxygen accumulator 111 via a line 113.
- the second container 97 is in turn connected via a line 101 to a further compressed air outlet opening 47 in the housing 15.
- the further compressed air outlet opening 47 is likewise designed as a radial bore and is diametrically opposite the compressed air outlet opening 45.
- a container outlet 105 for oxygen of the second container 97 is connected via a line 109 to a second oxygen inlet connection 50 'and the second oxygen outlet connection 54' is connected via a line 115 to the oxygen store 111.
- the system is thus constructed symmetrically with respect to its two containers 95, 97.
- the slide body 11 is shown in four successive angular positions. All parts already explained in the previous figures bear the reference numbers already introduced.
- the slide bearing bushing 21 has, in addition to the compressed air outlet openings 45 and 47, a compressed air inlet opening 39 and a nitrogen outlet opening 41, which are designed as radial, diametrically opposed bores in pairs and also extend through the outer housing 16 accordingly.
- the compressed air inlet opening 39 and the nitrogen outlet opening 41 are arranged at an angle of approximately 90 ° to the compressed air outlet openings 45, 47.
- the slider body 11 is cylindrical and, as has already been explained with reference to FIG. 1, has two recesses 35, 37 and a web-shaped part 25 located in between.
- the slider body 11 has two diametrically opposite control surfaces 31, 33 on its circumferential section In the web-shaped part 25, a recess 23 is provided in the form of a bore axially passing through the slide body 11, which is arranged radially between the central receiving bore 79 and the control surface 31.
- the compressed air inlet 39 and the nitrogen outlet Aperture 41 are preferably each smaller in cross section than the compressed air outlet openings 45, 47 in order to achieve a faster pressure drop in the container to be desorbed, as will be explained below. In addition, however, it is also possible to make the compressed air outlet openings 45, 47 as large as the compressed air inlet and nitrogen outlet openings 39 and 41, respectively.
- control surfaces 31, 33 are so large that, in a first shut-off position, which is shown in FIG. 2b, the compressed air inlet opening 39 and the nitrogen outlet opening 31, and in a second shut-off position, which is shown in FIG. 2d, the Completely close the compressed air outlet openings 45, 47. Depending on the position of the slide body 11, this results in different flow connections between the openings.
- 3a to 3h eight consecutive working positions of the slide body 11 are shown, the previous reference numerals being retained in these figures as well.
- 3a to 3h differ from FIGS. 2a to 2d in that not only the position of the slide body 11 to the slide bearing bush 21 is shown, but also the position of the slide body 11 to the upper slide bearing ring 18.
- the ring bush 30 is also shown in FIGS. 3a to 3h.
- the upper slide bearing ring 18 each has two pairs of axially opposite, circular arc-shaped grooves, with all the grooves lying on a common pitch circle.
- the radius of the pitch circle corresponds to the distance of the recess 23 from the central axis of the receiving bore 79 of the slide body 11, so that the recess 23 is connected to a specific groove depending on the position.
- the grooves 53a and 53b are each connected to the two oxygen outlet openings 53 in the upper cover 27.
- the oxygen outlet openings 53 which is not explicitly shown, are combined to form the common oxygen outlet connection 54.
- the grooves 55a and 55b which are diametrically opposite one another like the grooves 53a and 53b, are connected to the two oxygen outlet openings 55, which in turn are combined to form a common oxygen outlet connection 54.
- the lower slide bearing ring 19 corresponds to the upper slide bearing ring 18 in shape and position in the housing 15, so that the grooves 53a, 53b, 55a and 55b have corresponding axially opposite corresponding grooves in the lower slide bearing ring 19 and are connected to one another with the corresponding position of the recess 23.
- the grooves in the lower slide bearing ring 19 are connected in pairs to the oxygen inlet openings 49 or the oxygen outlet openings 51.
- the initial spacing of the grooves must always be at least as large as the inside width of the recess 23 of the slide body 11 in order to avoid that the recess 23 is connected to two grooves at the same time.
- the rotary drive R is connected to the slide body 11 via the rotary part 87.
- the rotary drive R is designed as a crank drive.
- the upper cover 27 has a laterally projecting side part 28, on which the rotary drive R (not shown in FIG. 4) is fastened and a disk 71 is set in rotation.
- a crank rod 75 can be rotated via an articulation point 65, but is fixed eccentrically on the disk 71, the eccentricity being adjustable in the disk 71 via an elongated hole, not shown.
- the crank rod 75 is also rotatably connected via the articulation point 67 to a rotating part 61 which has a projecting crank part 63.
- the crank mechanism sets the slide body 11 in a reversing 90 ° pivoting movement. The angle of the pivoting movement, the two extreme positions of which are shown in FIG. 4, can be set via the length-adjustable crank rod 75.
- Phase 1 is shown in FIGS. 2a and 3a, the slider body 11 is such that compressed air from a compressed air source flows through the compressed air inlet opening 39 into the recess 37 and further via the compressed air outlet opening 47 and the line 101 into the second container 97 can.
- a so-called adsorption phase begins in the container 97, in which the nitrogen present in the air is adsorbed by the zeolite fixed bed.
- the determined pressure value is normally between two and three bar.
- the oxygen leaves the second container 97 at a container outlet for oxygen 105 and flows via a line 109, the oxygen inlet connection 50 ', the oxygen inlet opening 51 into the grooves in the lower slide bearing ring 19, the grooves 55a and 55b in the upper slide bearing ring 18 correspond.
- the recess 23 is connected to the groove 55a, so that the oxygen passes through the recess 23 through the slide body 11, via the groove 55a, the oxygen outlet opening 55 Oxygen outlet connection 54 'and line 115 can flow into oxygen reservoir 111.
- the rotary drive R moves the slide body 11 to phase 2, shown in FIGS. 2b and 3b.
- the shooting Over body 11 so that the control surfaces 31 and 33 completely close the compressed air inlet opening 39 and the nitrogen outlet opening 41, so that no gas flows occur.
- the compressed air inlet opening 39 and the nitrogen outlet opening 41 are no longer completely closed, and phase 3 begins.
- the compressed air flows through the compressed air inlet opening 39 through the recess 35, to the compressed air outlet opening 45 and via the line 99 into the first container 95.
- the adsorption phase thus begins in the first container 95.
- the second container 97 and its associated compressed air outlet opening 47 are connected to the nitrogen outlet opening 47 via the recess 37, so that there is a drop in pressure in which the fixed zeolite bed of the container 97 loosen attached nitrogen molecules.
- the released nitrogen can thus flow out of the second container 97 and from the rotary valve 10.
- the rotary valve 10 blocks the connection of the lines 115 and 109, so that no oxygen due to the sudden drop in pressure can flow back from the oxygen reservoir 111 into the container 97.
- Previously known check valves that prevent oxygen from flowing back into containers are therefore superfluous.
- phase 4 the slide body 11 has reached a second shut-off position in which the control surfaces 31 and 33 completely face the compressed air outlet openings 47 and 45 and close them, so that a rest phase occurs.
- Phases 6, 7 and 8 correspond to phases 2, 3 and 4 already explained.
- phase 6 the slide body 11 is again in the first shut-off position.
- phase 7 the first container 95 adsorbs nitrogen and produces oxygen, while the second container 97 is desorbed and in phase 8 the slide body 11 is in the second shut-off position.
- each container 95, 97 passes through two adsorption, two desorption and four rest phases.
- a compressed air flow through the vacuum line 210 or 211 is prevented by a check valve 221 or 222 arranged in each of these vacuum lines 210 and 211.
- the high flow velocity of the nitrogen flowing out via the lines 99 and 101 creates a relative negative pressure in the vacuum lines 210 and 211, which otherwise leads to desorption of nitrogen in the leads to desorption disadvantaged areas of the containers 95 and 97.
- This improved and more complete desorption of nitrogen means that purging with part of the oxygen produced during the desorption phase can be dispensed with and the yield of oxygen-enriched air can be increased.
- a compressed air inlet opening should preferably be arranged between two compressed air outlet openings and a nitrogen outlet opening between two compressed air outlet openings.
- the slide body 11 could also have a star-shaped central part 30 and a plurality of recesses 23 which are connected to grooves on different pitch circle diameters. In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the slider body 11 is not rotated continuously, but is merely reversed by 90 ° between two extreme positions, namely phase 1 (FIGS. 2a, 3a) and phase 3 (FIG , 3c) pivoted.
- the grooves 53b and 55b and their corresponding axially opposite grooves are not connected to the recess 23 in any phase and are therefore superfluous.
- the design of the rotary drive R as a crank drive is advantageous when rinsing phases are not necessary, ie when the zeolite fixed beds are sufficiently desorbed during the desorption phase. Since the rinsing phase is omitted in the crank mechanism, the adsorption and desorption phases advantageously last longer, which leads to a higher yield of oxygen produced.
- the rotary valve 10 Since the rotary valve 10 has separate outlet and inlet openings for all occurring gas flows, it controls the gas flows independently of one another. Nor can it occur that desorbed nitrogen enters the oxygen-carrying lines 107, 109, 113 and 115, which would reduce the purity of the oxygen produced.
