Ergänzend wird noch auf den Offenbarungsgehalt der
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine Vorrichtung und eine Anordnung der eingangs genannten Art vorzustellen, die mit geringem Aufwand in ein Rohrsystem integriert werden können und die vielseitig einsetzbar sind. Die Aufgabe wird gelöst durch die Merkmale der unabhängigen Ansprüche 1 und 14. Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen finden sich in den Unteransprüchen.The invention is based on the object to present a device and an arrangement of the type mentioned, which can be integrated with little effort in a pipe system and are versatile. The object is solved by the features of the
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung weist das Rohr eine erste und eine zweite Öffnung auf, die in der Außenwand des Rohrs koaxial zueinander angeordnet sind. Die Werkzeugwelle erstreckt sich durch die erste Öffnung hindurch und das Werkzeug ist mit einem innerhalb des Rohrs angeordneten Ende der Werkzeugwelle verbunden. In einem Zwischenabschnitt zwischen der ersten Öffnung und der zweiten Öffnung weist das Rohr eine Trennstelle auf.In the device according to the invention, the tube has a first and a second opening, which are arranged in the outer wall of the tube coaxial with each other. The tool shaft extends through the first opening and the tool is connected to an end of the tool shaft disposed within the tube. In an intermediate section between the first opening and the second opening, the tube has a separation point.
Zunächst werden einige Begriffe erläutert.First, some terms are explained.
Der Begriff Bearbeiten wird als Oberbegriff für Homogenisieren, Mischen, Dispergieren und vergleichbare Vorgänge verwendet.The term processing is used as a generic term for homogenizing, mixing, dispersing and comparable processes.
Das Rohr definiert einen Fließweg und eine Fließrichtung für das Medium. Der Fließweg muss nicht geradlinig sein, vielmehr kann der Fließweg einmal oder mehrfach umgelenkt sein. Es ist nicht erforderlich, dass der Rohrdurchmesser entlang dem Fließweg konstant ist.The tube defines a flow path and a flow direction for the medium. The flow path does not have to be rectilinear; instead, the flow path can be deflected once or several times. It is not necessary that the pipe diameter be constant along the flow path.
Die Öffnungen in der Außenwand des Rohrs sind verschlossen, während das Medium transportiert wird, sie sind nicht für den Durchtritt des Mediums bestimmt. Die Öffnungen sind so in der Außenwand des Rohrs angeordnet, dass das im Rohr transportierte Medium zwischen den Öffnungen hindurchfließt. Die Position der ersten und der zweiten Öffnung zueinander ist nicht mit der Fließrichtung des Mediums verknüpft. Die erste Öffnung kann auch in Fließrichtung hinter der zweiten Öffnung angeordnet sein.The openings in the outer wall of the tube are sealed while the medium is being transported, they are not intended for the passage of the medium. The openings are arranged in the outer wall of the tube so that the medium transported in the tube flows between the openings. The position of the first and the second opening to each other is not linked to the flow direction of the medium. The first opening may also be arranged in the flow direction behind the second opening.
Indem die Werkzeugwelle sich durch die erste Öffnung hindurch erstreckt, ist ein Ende der Werkzeugwelle außerhalb des Rohrs und ein Ende der Werkzeugwelle innerhalb des Rohrs angeordnet. Die erste Öffnung umgibt die Werkzeugwelle in einem zwischen den beiden Enden angeordneten Bereich. Das Werkzeug ist mit dem innerhalb des Rohrs angeordneten Ende der Werkzeugwelle verbunden, das Werkzeug arbeitet innerhalb des Rohrs.As the tool shaft extends through the first opening, one end of the tool shaft is located outside the tube and one end of the tool shaft is disposed within the tube. The first opening surrounds the tool shaft in a region arranged between the two ends. The tool is connected to the end of the tool shaft located inside the pipe, the tool operates inside the pipe.
Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung hat den Vorteil, dass das Werkzeug in ein bestehendes Rohrsystem integriert werden kann. Eine aufwändige Anpassung des Rohrs an das Werkzeug entfällt. Über die zweite, koaxial zur ersten Öffnung ausgerichtete Öffnung kann ein weiteres Arbeitsmittel in das Rohr eingebracht werden. Durch eine geeignete Kombination des zweiten Arbeitsmittels mit dem Werkzeug wird ein vielfältiger Einsatz der Vorrichtung ermöglicht.The device according to the invention has the advantage that the tool can be integrated into an existing pipe system. An elaborate adaptation of the tube to the tool is eliminated. About the second, coaxially aligned with the first opening opening another working fluid can be introduced into the pipe. By a suitable combination of the second working means with the tool, a more versatile use of the device is made possible.
Das Werkzeug kann zusammen mit dem Ende der Werkzeugwelle durch die erste Öffnung in das Rohr eingebracht werden. Dies setzt voraus, dass der Durchmesser des Werkzeugs kleiner ist als der Durchmesser der Öffnung. Für eine effektive Bearbeitung des Mediums ist es jedoch häufig zweckmäßig, wenn der Durchmesser des Werkzeugs größer ist als der Durchmesser der ersten Öffnung. Um dennoch ein Einbringen des Werkzeugs in das Rohr zu ermöglichen, kann das Rohr eine zwischen der ersten und der zweiten Öffnung angeordnete Trennstelle aufweisen. An der Trennstelle kann eine Flanschverbindung zwischen zwei Rohrteilen bestehen. Zum Schließen der Flanschverbindung kann ein Spannring, eine Verschraubung oder ein vergleichbares Befestigungsmittel vorgesehen sein.The tool may be inserted into the tube through the first opening together with the end of the tool shaft. This assumes that the diameter of the tool is smaller than the diameter of the opening. However, for effective processing of the medium, it is often useful if the diameter of the tool is greater than the diameter of the first opening. In order nevertheless to enable the tool to be introduced into the tube, the tube may have a separating point arranged between the first and the second opening. At the point of separation may be a flange connection between two pipe parts. To the Closing the flange connection can be provided a clamping ring, a screw connection or a comparable fastening means.
Beim Bearbeiten fließfähiger Medien wirkt das Werkzeug meist mit einem Gegenwerkzeug zusammen. Das Werkzeug und das Gegenwerkzeug können beispielsweise sein der Rotor und der Stator eines Homogenisators oder der Rotor und der Stator eines Mischers. Das Gegenwerkzeug kann über die zweite Öffnung mit dem Rohr verbunden sein. Zu diesem Zweck kann das Gegenwerkzeug beispielsweise mit einem Flansch ausgestattet sein, der mit einem Flansch der Öffnung verbindbar ist. Die koaxiale Ausrichtung zwischen der ersten und der zweiten Öffnung ermöglicht eine passende Positionierung des Gegenwerkzeugs relativ zum Werkzeug. Alternativ kann das Gegenwerkzeug auch über die Trennstelle mit dem Rohr verbunden sein. Vorzugsweise ist die Trennstelle zu diesem Zweck ebenfalls koaxial zu der ersten und der zweiten Öffnung angeordnet.When editing flowable media, the tool usually interacts with a counter tool. The tool and the counter tool can be, for example, the rotor and the stator of a homogenizer or the rotor and the stator of a mixer. The counter tool can be connected to the pipe via the second opening. For this purpose, the counter tool may for example be equipped with a flange which is connectable to a flange of the opening. The coaxial alignment between the first and second openings allows for proper positioning of the counter tool relative to the tool. Alternatively, the counter tool can also be connected to the pipe via the separation point. Preferably, the separation point is also arranged coaxially with the first and the second opening for this purpose.
Das Gegenwerkzeug kann fest mit dem Rohr verbunden sein. Ebenfalls möglich ist es jedoch, dass das Gegenwerkzeug über eine Gegenwerkzeugwelle angetrieben ist, die sich vorzugsweise durch die zweite Öffnung hindurch erstreckt. Genau wie das Werkzeug arbeitet das Gegenwerkzeug dann innerhalb des Rohrs. Für ein schonendes Bearbeiten des Mediums können das Werkzeug und das Gegenwerkzeug gleichläufig betrieben werden. Eine besonders intensive Bearbeitung des Mediums wird erreicht, wenn das Werkzeug und das Gegenwerkzeug gegenläufig betrieben werden. Vorzugsweise können der Drehsinn und die Drehgeschwindigkeit der Werkzeugwelle und der Gegenwerkzeugwelle unabhängig voneiander variiert werden.The counter tool can be firmly connected to the pipe. However, it is also possible that the counter tool is driven by a counter-tool shaft, which preferably extends through the second opening. Just like the tool, the counter tool then works inside the pipe. For gentle machining of the medium, the tool and the counter tool can be operated in the same direction. A particularly intensive processing of the medium is achieved when the tool and the counter tool are operated in opposite directions. Preferably, the direction of rotation and the rotational speed of the tool shaft and the counter-tool shaft can be varied independently of each other.
Zur Abdichtung der Gegenwerkzeugwelle kann ebenso wie zur Abdichtung der Werkzeugwelle eine Gleitringdichtung vorgesehen sein. Die Gleitringdichtung kann mit oder ohne Sperrflüssigkeit ausgeführt sein. Bei Gleitringdichtungen ohne Sperrflüssigkeit ist das im Rohr transportierte Medium für das Kühlen und Schmieren zuständig.For sealing the counter-tool shaft as well as for sealing the tool shaft, a mechanical seal can be provided. The mechanical seal can be designed with or without barrier fluid. For mechanical seals without sealing liquid, the medium transported in the pipe is responsible for cooling and lubricating.
An Stelle des Gegenwerkzeugs oder zusätzlich zum Gegenwerkzeug kann eine Zuführleitung als mit dem Werkzeug zusammenwirkendes Arbeitsmittel vorgesehen sein. Durch die Zuführleitung kann dem durch das Rohr transportierten Medium ein weiterer Stoff beigemengt werden. Um den Zufluss des weiteren Stoffs zu kontrollieren, kann die Zuführleitung mit einem Ventil ausgestattet sein.Instead of the counter tool or in addition to the counter tool a supply line can be provided as cooperating with the tool work equipment. Through the supply line the transported through the tube medium, another substance can be added. In order to control the inflow of the further substance, the supply line can be equipped with a valve.
Die Zuführleitung ist zweckmäßigerweise über die zweite Öffnung mit dem Rohr verbunden und dadurch koaxial zum Werkzeug ausgerichtet. Indem der weitere Stoff dem Medium direkt im Zentrum des Werkzeugs zugeführt wird, kann eine besonders wirksame Durchmischung von dem Medium und dem weiteren Stoff erreicht werden. In einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Erfindung wird die zentrale Zuführung des weiteren Stoffs dadurch sichergestellt, dass die Zuführleitung zusammen mit dem Gegenwerkzeug einstückig ausgebildet ist.The supply line is suitably connected via the second opening with the tube and thereby aligned coaxially with the tool. By the additional material is supplied to the medium directly in the center of the tool, a particularly effective mixing of the medium and the further material can be achieved. In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the central feed of the further substance is ensured by the fact that the feed line is formed integrally with the counter-tool.
Die Verbindung an der zweiten Öffnung kann ebenso wie die Verbindung an der ersten Öffnung über einen Spannring, über eine Verschraubung oder über ein vergleichbares Befestigungsmittel hergestellt werden.The connection to the second opening can be made as well as the connection to the first opening via a clamping ring, via a screw connection or via a comparable fastening means.
Das im Rohr transportierte Medium wird zum Werkzeug herangeführt, passiert das Werkzeug und wird vom Werkzeug weggeführt. Der an die erste oder zweite Öffnung angrenzende Teil des Rohrs, durch den das Medium zum Werkzeug herangeführt wird, wird als Zuflussabschnitt des Rohrs bezeichnet. Der an die erste oder zweite Öffnung angrenzende Teil des Rohrs, durch den das Medium vom Werkzeug weggeführt wird, wird als Abflussabschnitt des Rohrs bezeichnet. Vorzugsweise sind der Zuflussabschnitt und der Abflussabschnitt in zu den Öffnungen parallelen Ebenen angeordnet, wobei der Abstand zwischen der Zentralebene des Zuflussabschnitts und der Zentralebene des Abflussabschnitts vorzugsweise zwischen 3 cm und 20 cm, weiter vorzugsweise zwischen 4 cm und 10 cm liegt. Eine bestimmte Länge des Zuflussabschnitts oder des Abflussabschnitts ist nicht gefordert. Bereits nach einem sehr kurzen Rohrabschnitt kann sich beispielsweise ein Vorratsbehälter des zu bearbeitenden Mediums anschließen.The medium transported in the pipe is brought to the tool, passes the tool and is guided away from the tool. The adjacent to the first or second opening part of the tube through which the medium is brought to the tool is referred to as the inflow portion of the tube. The part of the tube adjacent to the first or second opening, through which the medium is led away from the tool, is referred to as the outflow section of the tube. Preferably, the inflow section and the outflow section are arranged in planes parallel to the openings, wherein the distance between the central plane of the inflow section and the central plane of the outflow section is preferably between 3 cm and 20 cm, more preferably between 4 cm and 10 cm. A certain length of the inflow section or the outflow section is not required. For example, after a very short pipe section, a reservoir of the medium to be processed may join.
Die erste und die zweite Öffnung sind nur wenig außerhalb der Zentralebenen des Zuflussabschnitts und des Abflussabschnitts angeordnet. Vorzugsweise liegt der Abstand zwischen der Zentralebene des Zuflussabschnitts bzw. Abflussabschnitts und der Ebene der ersten bzw. der zweiten Öffnung zwischen 1 cm und 10 cm, weiter vorzugsweise zwischen 2 cm und 4 cm. Die Nennweite des Rohrs liegt vorzugsweise zwischen 1,5 cm und 15 cm, weiter vorzugsweise zwischen 3 cm und 5 cm.The first and the second openings are arranged only slightly outside the central planes of the inflow section and the outflow section. Preferably, the distance between the central plane of the inflow section or outflow section and the plane of the first and the second opening is between 1 cm and 10 cm, more preferably between 2 cm and 4 cm. The nominal diameter of the tube is preferably between 1.5 cm and 15 cm, more preferably between 3 cm and 5 cm.
Ist eine zwischen der ersten und der zweiten Öffnung liegende Trennstelle vorhanden, können die Flansche der miteinander verbundenen Rohrteile derart ausgebildet sein, dass ein Verdrehen der Flansche relativ zueinander möglich ist. Zusammen mit den Rohrteilen werden auch der Zuflussabschnitt und der Abflussabschnitt relativ zueinander verdreht. Über die Flanschverbindung an der Trennstelle kann also die Ausrichtung von dem Zuflussabschnitt und dem Abflussabschnitt relativ zueinander verändert werden.If there is a separation point lying between the first and the second opening, the flanges of the interconnected pipe parts can be designed such that a rotation of the flanges relative to each other possible is. Together with the pipe parts, the inflow section and the outflow section are also rotated relative to one another. The orientation of the inflow section and the outflow section relative to each other can therefore be changed via the flange connection at the separation point.
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Anordnung weist das Rohr in der Außenwand eine erste Öffnung sowie eine koaxial zu der ersten Öffnung angeordnete zweite Öffnung auf. In einem Zwischenabschnitt zwischen der ersten Öffnung und der zweiten Öffnung ist das Rohr einer Trennstelle versehen. Die Werkzeugwelle erstreckt sich im Arbeitszustand durch die erste Öffnung hindurch, wobei mit einem innerhalb des Rohrs angeordneten Ende der Werkzeugwelle das Werkzeug verbunden ist. Im Ruhezustand ist die erste Öffnung mit einem Deckel verschlossen ist. Im Ruhezustand entsteht ein Rohrabschnitt, den das im Rohr transportierte Medium frei passieren kann.In the arrangement according to the invention, the tube has a first opening in the outer wall and a second opening arranged coaxially with the first opening. In an intermediate section between the first opening and the second opening, the pipe is provided with a separation point.

Eine erste Öffnung 3 und eine zweite Öffnung 4 in der Au-ßenwand des Rohrs 1a, 1b, 1c sind koaxial zueinander angeordnet, so dass sie den Zwischenabschnitt 1b des Rohrs zwischen sich einschließen.A
Über die erste Öffnung 3 ist die Werkzeugwelle 5 eines hier als Rotor 6 eines Homogenisators ausgebildeten Werkzeugs mit dem Rohr 1a, 1b, 1c verbunden. Das mit dem Rotor 6 verbundene Ende der Werkzeugwelle 5 ragt in den Zwischenabschnitt 1b des Rohrs hinein, das gegenüberliegende, mit einem Motor 7 verbundene Ende der Werkzeugwelle 5 liegt au-ßerhalb des Rohrs 1a, 1b, 1c.Over the
Der Rotor 6 des Homogenisators wirkt zusammen mit einem Stator 8 als Gegenwerkzeug. Der Stator 8 ist über die zweite Öffnung 4 mit dem Rohr 1a, 1b, 1c verbunden. Der Rotor 6 und der Stator 8 arbeiten innerhalb des Zwischenabschnitts 1b des Rohrs, so dass das durch den Zwischenabschnitt 1b transportierte Medium beim Durchtritt durch den Rotor 6 und den Stator 7 homogenisiert wird.The
Das Rohr 1a, 1b, 1c ist mit einer Trennstelle 9 zwischen der ersten Öffnung 3 und der zweiten Öffnung 4 versehen. Die Trennstelle 9 kann geöffnet werden, um den Rotor 6 und den Stator 8, deren Durchmesser größer sind als die Durchmesser der ersten Öffnung 3 und der zweiten Öffnung 4, in das Rohr 1a, 1b, 1c einzubringen. Durch Verdrehen der an der Trennstelle 9 aneinanderliegenden Rohrteile kann die Ausrichtung des Zuflussabschnitts 1a relativ zum Abflussabschnitt 1c verändert werden.The pipe 1a, 1b, 1c is provided with a
Um an der Trennstelle 9 eine feste Verbindung zwischen den Rohrteilen herzustellen, ist ein Spannring 10 vorgesehen. Über vergleichbare Spannringe 11 und 12 wird die Verbindung zwischen der Werkzeugwelle 5 und dem Rohr 1a, 1b, 1c sowie zwischen dem Stator 8 und dem Rohr 1a, 1b, 1c hergestellt.To make a firm connection between the pipe parts at the
In
Über die zweite Öffnung 4 ist eine Zuführleitung 13 mit dem Rohr 1a, 1b, 1c verbunden.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung kann mit geringem Aufwand in bestehende Rohrsysteme integriert werden. Es kann also ein universell einsetzbares Rohrsystem installiert werden, ohne dass zuvor bekannt sein muss, welches Produkt hergestellt wird und welche Bearbeitungsschritte in welcher Reihenfolge aufeinanderfolgen. Das Rohrsystem weist in Abständen Öffnungen auf. Durch diese Öffnungen können bei Bedarf Bearbeitungswerkzeuge in das Rohrsystem eingeführt werden oder es können dem im Rohr transportierten Medium weitere Stoffe zugeführt werden. Sind mehr Öffnungen vorhanden als für die Bearbeitungsschritte erforderlich sind, werden die nicht genutzten Öffnungen mit in den Zeichnungen nicht dargestellten Deckeln verschlossen. Bei mit Deckeln verschlossenen Öffnungen entstehen Rohrabschnitte, die vom Medium frei passiert werden können.The device according to the invention can be integrated into existing pipe systems with little effort. Thus, a universally applicable pipe system can be installed without it having to be previously known which product is produced and which processing steps follow in which order. The pipe system has openings at intervals. If necessary, machining tools can be introduced into the pipe system through these openings or it can be supplied to the medium transported in the tube further substances. If there are more openings than are required for the processing steps, the unused openings are closed with lids, not shown in the drawings. When closed with lids openings arise pipe sections that can be freely passed by the medium.
Durch geeignete Kombination der Bearbeitungswerkzeuge können an einem fest installierten Rohrsystem beliebige Fertigungsabläufe realisiert werden.By suitable combination of the processing tools, any manufacturing processes can be realized on a permanently installed pipe system.
