Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vollmantel-Schneckenzentrifuge mit einer Stauscheibe nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a solid bowl screw centrifuge with a baffle plate according to the preamble of claim 1.
Bei Vollmantel-Schneckenzentrifugen wird durch den Einsatz von Stauscheiben ein Aufstaueffekt bewirkt, der die Strömung in axialer Richtung betrifft. Neben diesem an sich gewünschten Effekt kommt es auch zu einer Beeinflussung der Strömung in Umfangsrichtung. Um eine effektive Förderung der Feststoffe, die einen Feststoffkuchen ausbilden, mit der Schnecke zu erreichen, ist es erforderlich, dass sich der Feststoffkuchen nicht gegenüber der Trommel dreht sondern möglichst an ihr gleitet. Zwischen dem Feststoffkuchen und der Schnecke findet nur eine Relativbewegung in Umfangsrichtung satt.With solid bowl centrifuges, the use of baffles causes a build-up effect that affects the flow in the axial direction. In addition to this desired effect, there is also an influence on the flow in the circumferential direction. In order to achieve effective conveying of the solids which form a solids cake with the screw, it is necessary for the solids cake not to rotate with respect to the drum, but to glide as close to it as possible. Between the solids cake and the screw only a relative movement in the circumferential direction is fed.

Die Erfindung hat die Aufgabe, das vorstehend beschriebene Problem mit einfacheren konstruktiven Mitteln zu beheben.The invention has the object to solve the problem described above with simpler design means.
Die Erfindung löst diese Aufgabe durch den Gegenstand des Anspruchs 1.The invention solves this problem by the subject matter of claim 1.
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind den Unteransprüchen zu entnehmen.Advantageous embodiments can be found in the dependent claims.
Der wenigstens eine oder die fensterartigen Durchbrüche bringen gleich mehrere Vorteile mit sich.The at least one or the window-like openings bring several advantages with it.
So wird auf einfache Weise die Ansammlung von Feststoffen im Keil vermieden. Hierdurch wird das aufzubringende Schneckendrehmoment verringert, was auch in einer geringeren Stromaufnahme resultiert. U.U. sind sogar kleinere Getriebe zwischen Antriebsmotor (nicht dargestellt) und Schnecke einsetzbar.This easily avoids the accumulation of solids in the wedge. As a result, the worm torque to be applied is reduced, which also results in a lower power consumption. U.U. even smaller gears between the drive motor (not shown) and worm can be used.
Darüber hinaus ergibt sich eine geringere mechanische Belastung der Wendel und sogar ein geringerer Verschleiß der Trommel im Bereich der Stauscheibe.In addition, there is a lower mechanical load on the coil and even less wear of the drum in the baffle plate.
Darüber hinaus ist die Maßnahme konstruktiv besonders einfach umzusetzen und kostengünstig.In addition, the measure is structurally particularly simple to implement and inexpensive.
Insgesamt werden die Verfahrenwerte verbessert.Overall, the process values are improved.
Die Schnecke erstreckt sich jeweils auf beiden Seiten der Stauscheibe, so dass sie von ihr geschnitten wird.The snail extends on either side of the baffle plate so that it is cut by it.
Wird eine mehrgängige Schnecke eingesetzt, sind mehrere Schneckenblätter vorhanden, wobei die Stauscheibe dann beide Schneckengänge schneidet.If a multi-start screw is used, several screw blades are present, whereby the baffle plate then cuts both screw threads.

Ein Zulaufrohr 5 dient zur Zuleitung eines zu verarbeitenden Produktes über einen Verteiler 6 in die Trommel 1. Wenigstens ein Flüssigkeitsablauf 7 und ein Feststoffaustrag 8 dienen zum Austrag wenigstens einer Flüssigkeits- und wenigstens einer Feststoffphase.An
Auf dem Schneckenkörper 4 ist ergänzend zur Schnecke 3 wenigstens eine Stauscheibe 9 angeordnet, die aus einem hier im wesentlichen vollständig um den Schneckenkörper 4 umlaufenden Ring bzw. Scheibenelement gebildet wird. Die Stauscheibe 9 kreuzt sich in wenigstens einem Umfangsbereich mit der Stauscheibe 9, wobei keilförmige Bereiche 10, 13 zwischen der Stauscheibe 9 und dem Schneckenblatt 3 gebildet werden.On the
Die Drehrichtung der Schnecke wird wiederum mit U bezeichnet und mit den Pfeilen P2 die Relativströmung gegenüber der Schnecke in weiter Entfernung von der Stauscheibe.The direction of rotation of the screw is again denoted by U and the arrows P 2, the relative flow relative to the screw at a distance from the baffle plate.
In dem in Strömungsrichtung der Feststoffe zum Feststoffaustrag axial "ersten" Keilbereich 10 ist erfindungsgemäß wenigstens ein fensterartiger Durchbruch 11, vorzugsweise in dem Schneckenblatt 3, ausgebildet, welcher einen Durchfluss von Material durch das Scheckenblatt 3 ermöglicht.In the flow direction of the solids to the solids discharge axially "first"
Derart bleibt die Funktion der Stauscheibe 9 erhalten. Es wird aber vermieden, dass im Keilbereich 10 zu hohe Kräfte auftreten. Da die Schnecke 3 durchströmt werden kann, findet in dem Keilbereich 10 keine Ansammlung von Feststoffen mehr statt.Thus, the function of the
Ein entsprechender fensterartiger Durchbruch 12 kann in einem weiteren Keilbereich 13 vorgesehen sein, der auf der anderen Seite der Stauscheibe 9 in dem Bereich ausgebildet ist, in dem sie auf das Schneckenblatt 3 trifft.A corresponding window-
Auch hier wird durch die Durchströmung eine Herabsetzung der auftretenden Kräfte erreicht.Again, a reduction of the forces occurring is achieved by the flow.
Jeder der Durchbrüche 11, 12 wird vorzugsweise derart ausgebildet, dass am Innen- und/oder Außenumfang des Schneckenkörpers 4 jeweils noch ein Materialsteg 14, 15 und 16, 17 des Schneckenblattes 3 stehen bleibt.Each of the
Die äußeren Materialstege 14, 15 können durch Aufschweißungen oder dgl. verstärkt sein, um die Konstruktion zu stärken und um durch höhere Masse in diesem Bereich Unwuchten zu vermeiden.The
Die Durchbrüche 11, 12 können aber auch direkt am Außenumfang des Schneckenkörpers ansetzen und/oder es radial vollständig nach außen hin durchsetzen.However, the
Vorzugweise grenzt der/grenzen die Durchbrüche 11, 12 ferner in Umfangsrichtung jeweils direkt an den jeweiligen Bereich 18, 19 an, in dem die Stauscheibe 9 mit dem Schneckenblatt 3 zusammentrifft. D.h., die Stauscheibe selbst bildet dann einen Teil des Randes der Durchbrüche 11, 12. Dies wird besonders bevorzugt, denn ist die Wirkung der Durchbrüche ist hier besonders vorteilhaft. Insgesamt sollte der Abstand des Randes der Durchbrüche 10, 11 zur Stauscheibe insofern besonders bevorzugt 0 mm, vorzugsweise weniger als 10 mm betragen.Preferably, the / limits the
