Description

Apparatus for removing residues from the surface of a moving belt and a belt processing system

The invention relates to a device for removing residues from the surface of a belt conveyed in one direction in or out of a strip processing installation by means of a liquid or ^{solid jet of} liquid directed onto the moving strip, with at least one strip

Outlet nozzle with an outlet opening, from which the

Liquid or Flüssigkeitsfeststoffstrahl outlet and a liquid or liquid solid source for supplying each outlet nozzle with liquid or

Liquid solid. Moreover, the invention relates to a Bandbarbeitanlageanlage. Devices of the type mentioned are required to

in particular of metallic bands residues to

remove, stick as oil film, dirt, metal dust, scale or the like on the tape, as for the other

Processing of tapes usually only very low residue levels are allowed on the surface of the belt.

For a long time trying to remove the remaining on a tape after a treatment residues by spraying, for example by means of water. For example, German Patent DE 101 61 985 C1 discloses a device in which spray nozzles in the form of spray bars are aligned with the strip to be cleaned, which are in the

Essentially extend across the width. The spray nozzles are arranged on the band inlet side of the device. In the area of the tape outlet side, the

Extract the liquid sprayed onto the belt together with the sprayed off residues. The suction extends over the entire width of the belt and is e.g. designed as Absaugbalken. To generate a

continuous suction flow are provided at the band inlet side spatially in front of the spray nozzles ventilation elements. This ensures that the suction flow from the

Ribbon inlet extends over the spray area to the belt outlet.

The device described above with a

Bandwidth extending inlet side spray bar and also extending across the bandwidth

Outlet-side suction bar requires both large

Liquid quantities as well as large suction quantities. This has large pumping and suction units as well as large filter and

Separation systems result.

In an embodiment of the device and rotating tubes are provided with end nozzles, the axis of rotation is arranged perpendicular to the band plane. The device with rotating spray nozzles requires smaller injection quantities and thus smaller pumping units, but has the disadvantage of

uneven loading and thus cleaning the

Strip surface. The charge is greater at the

Band sections, in which the rotating nozzle moves in or against the tape running direction, and smaller to the

Tape sections where the rotating nozzle moves transversely to the direction of tape travel. An improved apparatus for removing residues, eg scale from the surface of a belt is described in German Patent DE 43 37 287 B4. In this device, the liquid jets are sprayed over a likewise extending transversely to the strip running direction over the bandwidth nozzle unit consisting of several rotating nozzle heads on the tape. The improvement is achieved by the nozzle heads or the nozzle unit are moved back and forth between two reversal points transverse to the direction of tape travel. Due to the overlay of the back and forth

The movement with the rotation of the nozzle heads can be

Although the unevenness of the charge is reduced, it can not be avoided. Based on this prior art, the present invention seeks to provide a device of the type mentioned above and a belt processing plant, which improves the cleaning effect and reduces the required spray and Absaugmengen.

The solution to the problem is based on the idea that to remove the residues from the strip surface at least one only over part of the bandwidth

moving, controlled exit nozzle with a directed jet of liquid at high speed over the belt is moved. The movement of the outlet nozzle (s) preferably takes place substantially transversely to the direction of strip travel. However, movements under other angles other than 0 ° to the direction of travel of the strip also come into consideration

Cumshot over the entire width of the tape with the nozzle or the nozzles is guaranteed. Likewise is a movement under continuously changing angles, in particular substantially transversely to the direction of tape travel possible.

In detail, the object is achieved in a device of the type mentioned above in that the device control means for temporary supply of each

Having liquid or liquid solid discharge nozzle, the longest extent (L) of the discharge opening of each discharge nozzle is smaller than the width (B) of the belt and that the device comprises means for moving each

Has outlet nozzle at an angle to the direction of the belt, wherein the speed of each outlet nozzle is greater than the speed of the belt. While in fixed outlet nozzles of the prior art, the blow-off of the liquid is passively and only once at belt speed, in the invention with at least one movable outlet nozzle of the blow-off actively with a multiple of the belt speed. Thus, e.g. the belt speed 2 m / s, the

On the other hand, the speed of the nozzle movement, in particular transversely to the running direction of the belt, should be 10 m / s.

The higher compared to the tape speed

Speed of the outlet nozzle (s) is at least partially used to reduce the longest extent (L), in particular the slot length of the slot-shaped outlet opening of the outlet nozzle and thus the amount of liquid.

If, as in the example mentioned, the speed of the nozzle movement is 10 m / s and the belt speed is 2 m / s, it is possible to reduce the slot length (L) by 5 times to 20% of the bandwidth (B) during a transverse movement of the outlet nozzle. The ratio of width (B) of the band to longest extension (L) of the outlet opening of the outlet nozzle (5) should in any case be greater than B / L = 1.5. The ratio of nozzle speed to

Belt speed can also be used to a part for reducing the longest extent (L), in particular the slot length of the nozzle, and on the other part for Mehrfachabspritzung the surface of the belt. The by the

Transverse movement of the outlet nozzle (s) to one or the

Band edges already already improved cleaning effect in the lateral areas of the belt can be further increased by such a multiple spray. As a control means for temporary supply of each

Outlet nozzle with liquid or liquid solid is in particular at least one control slot into consideration. The control means give the liquid or

Liquid solids jet only during a

Essentially transversely to the direction of the tape running movement of the outlet nozzles free. This will be the

Required spray and suction reduced. The further improves essentially exclusively across

Tape running direction impinging liquid or

provides. This pressure from the network can be through

Increasing the pressure, for example, by centrifugal forces, increased. Alternatively, a connection to a

High pressure network or an increase in pressure with a

High-pressure pump for liquids or liquid solids possible, the pressures being in the range of 50-120 bar,

For the descaling of tapes is generally a higher pressure of the liquid or

Liquid solids as required for cleaning, either from a factory network or a high or high pressure pump for liquids or

Liquid solids is generated. The pressures range from 100 bar to about 1000 bar.

Preferably, the pressure of the liquid or

Device (1) for removing residues from the

Surface of a in a running direction (2) on a conveyor belt, not shown in the figure, conveyor belt (3). Preferably, there are one each

Device (1) on the upper side and a device (1) on the underside of the belt (3), so that the residues from both surfaces of the belt can be removed simultaneously by spraying. The discharge nozzles (5) arranged on a transporting means (4) move along a guide track (6) within a liquid store (7) transversely to the direction of travel (2) of the machine

Bandes (3). The executed as a band transport (4) runs continuously counterclockwise in

Arrow direction (8) to. The one with a not shown

Guideway (6) one to the band (3) aligned over the entire width (B) of the band (3) extending

Control slot (9) on which the outlet openings (10) of the outlet nozzles (5) and thus the liquid from the

Liquid storage (7) releases.

The outlet nozzles (5) are in the illustrated

Embodiment designed as a slot-shaped passage openings in the band-shaped transport (4), wherein the transport means sealingly covers the control slot (9) and each passage opening along the guide track (6) with the control slot (9) can be brought into overlap. The outlet openings (10) of the outlet nozzles (5) are located at such a small distance from the surface of the strip (3) that the impact velocity in the core of each outlet nozzle (5) sprayed onto the strip (3)

Liquid jet approximately equal to the

Nozzle exit velocity is. These

Jet velocities are required to remove residues from a metal belt with liquid. The liquid jet impinging on the belt (3) practically corresponds to the slot shape of the outlet opening (10) with a slot width (S) and a slot length (L).

At the left in the running direction (2) of the band (3) band edge is a symbolized by the arrow (11)

Running direction (2). As a result, if an improved cleaning effect by a multiple injection is dispensed with, the slit length (L) of the discharge nozzles can be reduced to one fifth of the width (B) of the strip (3). As a formula, this relationship can be expressed as follows:

L = B x V _B / V _D , where

L = slot length

B = width of the band (3)

V _B = speed of the belt (3)

V _D = velocity of the outlet nozzle (5)

FIG. 1 b shows the spray surfaces resulting on the surface of the belt (3) moving in the running direction (2)

Use of the device (1) shown in Figure Ia. As a result of the fivefold speed of the nozzles (5) relative to the speed of the belt (3), despite the considerably smaller than the prior art outlet openings (10) of the outlet nozzles (5), the band (3) over the entire surface with the directed liquid jet acted upon at the same time lower fluid consumption. The exclusive

Movement of all outlet nozzles (5) to the left edge of the belt also improves the previously problematic

Cleaning effect in the lateral area of the band (3).

The embodiment of the device (1) according to Figure 2 a corresponds in construction and the operation largely that of Figure 1 a, so that on the local

References. Differences arise insofar as six outlet nozzles (5) are arranged at a distance of half the width (B) of the strip (3) in the band-shaped transport means (4), so that the slot length (L) of the outlet nozzles (5) with respect to FIG half length can be carried out, if no Mehrfachabspritzung is desired. The spray surfaces (12) resulting on the continuous belt (3) can be seen from FIG. 2b. Figure 3 shows a second embodiment of a

Device (1) according to the invention, which differs from the

Embodiments according to Figures 1 and 2 insofar differs that the transport means (4) not within, but outside of the liquid reservoir (7) along its outer guide track (6) is guided. In

Consistent with the embodiment of Figures 1 and 2, the device (1) along a portion of the guide track (6) facing the tape (3) control slot (9), the liquid from the liquid storage (7) to those in the circulating belt-shaped transport (4) arranged outlet nozzles (5) releases. Laterally next to the liquid storage (7) and the left and right

Strip edge of the strip (3) is in each case a deflection roller (13a,

13b) for the transport means (4), wherein at least one of the deflection rollers (13a, 13b) is connected to a rotary drive, not shown in Figure 3, to continuously move the band-shaped transport means (4) in the direction of arrow (8).

The band-shaped transport (4) sealingly covers the control slot (9), as in particular from

Detaild representation in Figure 3 can be seen. The control slot (9) is bounded laterally by the guide track (6) forming webs (14a, 14 b) on which slide off the lateral edges of the band-shaped transport means (4). Laterally, the guide track (6) formed in this way is bounded by vertical webs (15a, 15b) which at the same time form a lateral guide for the circulating transport means (4). An advantage of

Device according to Figure 3 is that the

Outlet openings (10) of the outlet nozzles (5) even closer the band (3) can be brought so that at

same exit velocity of the liquid jet, a higher cleaning performance can be achieved. Figures 4a, 4b, 5 and 6 show embodiments of the device (1) according to the invention, in which the

translational movement of the nozzles is generated transversely to the direction of the tape by a screw movement: The device (1) according to Figures 4a, 4b comprises a means of a drive (16) about its longitudinal axis (17) rotatable

Upon rotation of the nozzle tube (18), both outlet nozzles (5) move in the same direction transversely to the running direction (2) of the strip (3).

The two nozzle slots (19a, 19b) in the nozzle tube (18) of Figure 4b have opposite pitch angle with right-handed or left-handed helix. The

Outlet nozzles (5) move from the center of the belt (3) counter to the belt edges, resulting in an improved

Cleaning effect, in particular in the range of both band edges zeitigt. Figure 5 illustrates the development of the nozzle tube (18) for various arrangements of nozzle slots (19a, 19b). The unwinds A1 and A2 show the nozzle tubes (18) in FIGS. 4a and 4b with rectified or opposite movement of the outlet nozzles (5). The development A3 shows a nozzle tube according to Figure 4b, in which the nozzle slots (19a, 19b) but in the circumferential direction U of the nozzle tube (18) are arranged offset to one another. The staggered arrangement allows an overlap of the two nozzle slots (19a, 19b) and a more stable design of the nozzle tube (18).

The pitch of the nozzle slots (19a, 19b) of the nozzle tubes (18) corresponding to the unwinds A1 to A3 is equal to Bandwidth chosen so that each outlet nozzle during a revolution of the nozzle tube (18) once over the entire width (B) of the belt (3) moves. In the arrangement of the nozzle slots according to the

Windings Bl to B3 of Figure 5 is the pitch of each nozzle slot only equal to half the width (B) of the tape (3). This has lower speeds of

Outlet nozzles (5) result. In order to move the discharge nozzles (5) over the entire width (B) of the belt (3), in the arrangements after the windings Bl to B3 are two

Revolutions of the nozzle tube (18) required.

The slope of the nozzle slots (19a, 19b) of the nozzle tubes (18) corresponding to the unwinds Cl to C3 is equal to twice the bandwidth selected, so that each outlet nozzle already during half a revolution of the nozzle tube (18) once across the entire width (B) of the band (3) moves. If the slope of the nozzle slots (19a, 19b), as shown in the developments Cl to C3, as integer

FIG. 6 shows a preferred exemplary embodiment of a device (1) according to the invention with a rotating nozzle tube (18), which, however, unlike the embodiment according to FIG. 4, does not simultaneously serve as a liquid reservoir (7). In order to achieve this separation of functions and at the same time to reduce the distance between the nozzle tube (18) and the band (3), the nozzle tube (18) surrounds a hollow cylindrical liquid reservoir (23) with a band (3) forming an annular gap (21). pointing control slot (9), which extends over the entire width (B) of the band (3). The

Invention to provide the device (1) according to Figure 6 with differently arranged nozzle slots (19a, 19b). In that regard, reference is made to the comments and explanations to Figure 5.

Figure 12 shows a different embodiment of a

Nozzle tube (18) for a device according to FIGS. 4 to 6. The nozzle tube (18) has a plurality of nozzle openings (5) arranged on at least one helical line, the line (s) corresponding to the course of the nozzle slots (19 a, 19 b). can correspond. The control slot (9) extends at an angle to each helical line on which the nozzle openings (5) are arranged, and releases the liquid. The

Nozzle openings (5) are preferably inclined towards the strip edges and opposite to the strip running direction (2). Due to the inclination to the band edges is the removal of the

FIG. 7 shows a further embodiment of the

Device (1) according to the invention, which has at least one, in the embodiment four, rotatable by means of a drive, not shown, about a to the surface of the belt (3) pivot axis (31) supports (30) at which at a distance from the respective axis of rotation (31) slotted

Outlet nozzles (5) are arranged. In the illustrated Embodiment consists of each holder (30) of four simultaneously serving as a liquid supply holding arms (32), which are each arranged at a distance of 90 ° about the axis of rotation (31) around. The liquid flow from the outlet nozzles (5) is released in each case only on a circular arc of the circular path (34) of each outlet nozzle (5) by means of a control slot (33). Which the four brackets (30) associated

Control slots (33) are arranged in matching sectors of the circular paths (34) and each extend to the intersections of adjacent circular paths (34) on which the outlet nozzles (5) rotate. An admission of the band (3) with liquid is therefore ensured over its entire width (B). Extend the control slots (33) over a circular sector of more than 120 ° is the

desired uniform application of the surface of the

Bandes (3) with liquid no longer guaranteed. In addition, the fluid consumption increases disproportionately at larger sector angles. As far as the maximum circular sector of 120 ° is not exceeded, the effective, i. the discharge nozzles released from the control slot (33) are substantially transverse to the direction of tape travel and the advantages of the invention are achieved.

The drives of all brackets (30) are synchronized with each other to ensure proper engagement of the support arms (32) of adjacent brackets (30).

In the embodiment of Figure 7, the control slots (33) downstream of the outlet nozzles (5). The control slots (33) can be designed, for example, in a plate between the rotating outlet nozzles (5) and the band (3) be introduced, which at the same time prevents the flow of liquid on the remaining part of the circular path (34) by building a back pressure. In another embodiment of the

Inventive device according to Figure 7, the

Control slots (33) in the region of supply of the liquid to the support arms (32) to be displaced, as illustrated in Figure 8. This makes it possible, the

If the outlet nozzle (5) is arranged perpendicular to the surface of the strip (3), an impingement jet of the liquid is formed, which forms a surface on the surface of the strip (3)

Tangential flow generated. The tangential flow is divided at high flow velocities into a partial flow in the direction of movement (8) and a partial flow counter to the direction of movement (8) of the outlet nozzle (5).

If the nozzle gap of the outlet nozzle is not arranged perpendicularly to the surface of the strip (3) but inclined in the direction of movement according to FIG. 9a or inclined perpendicular to the direction of movement according to FIG. 9b, then, with sufficient inclination, a flow occurs exclusively either in or against the direction of movement Outlet nozzle (5). The inclination of the nozzle gap in

Movement direction (8) according to Figure 9a causes the injection of the residues in a damming and

subsequent removal is divided. If, however, a damming of the residues are avoided, it is recommended that the inclination of the nozzle gap against the

Movement direction (8), as shown in Figure 9b. Of the Inclination angle to the surface of the belt in or against the direction of movement is 30 ° - 90 °, in particular 45 ° - 80 °.

By the inventive movement of the outlet nozzles in particular transversely or at an angle to the direction

(2) of the belt (3), the speed of the belt higher speed of the discharge nozzles and the provision of several simultaneously on the surface of the belt

(3) effective outlet nozzles (5), the inventive device (1) can be carried out with standard flat jet nozzles. In particular, so-called multi-channel nozzles can be attached to the transport means (4).

Figures 10 a, b illustrate the suction of the sprayed liquid from the belt (3). The required for the extraction air flow is through a

Air supply (35) ensured.

According to Figure 10 a, the suction takes place at the left in the running direction (2) of the band band edge and the air supply (35) of the suction air at the opposite right band edge. In the apparatus of Figure 10 b, the suction takes place at both strip edges and the air supply of the suction air in the band center, wherein the channel for the air supply (35) on the longitudinal side of the control slot (9) of the device (1) opens.

From Figure 11 it can be seen that the

Liquid supply line (36) of a plant network to a liquid pump (37) is connected to increase the pressure. The standing under pump pressure liquid is the

Device (1) for supplying the outlet nozzles (5) with Liquid supplied. The air supply (35) for the suction air is fed from an air pressure network. The generally designated (11) suction device for the sprayed onto the tape water and the removed residues has a suction fan (39), a water separator (38) and a

Exhaust line (40). The active air supply (35) from a compressed air network can be dispensed with depending on the design of the suction fan (39), which in this case sucks the water sprayed onto the belt and the removed residues together with the ambient air.
