Application flle'd April 18, 1921. Serial 110,462,439.
I To all whom it'may concern; i
Be it known that I, HILLHOUSE BUEL, a citizen of the United States, residing'in the borough of Manhattan, city, county, and State of New York, har e invented certain. new and useful, Improvements in Processes of and Apparatus for Drying-Materials, of which the following is a full, clear, and complete description.
My invention relates the art ofv extract-.
ing moisture from materials and has as its principal object the provision of a process whereby moisture may be removed frogn materials economically and at a high rate of speed. A second object of my invention is to provide a process whereby materials may be comminuted in a rapid and economical manner with a minimum damage to the granular or the fibrous structure. A further object of my invention is to provide a process whereby materials may be dried at a maximum rate of speed without injury to the material. A further object of my invention is to provide a drying apparatus adapted for use in accordance wlth my process, and which will be convenient and efficient in operation. v
The novel features of' my invention are pointed out. with. particularity in the appended claims. The invention itself, however, with further objects and advantages,
will best be'understood from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing in which Fig. 1 is a vertical central section of a moisture extractor according to my invention.
Fig. 2 is an elevation of a liquid separator preferably used in connection with the apparatus shown in Fig. 1.
-Fig. 3 is a diagrammatic elevational view of the condenser used in connection with the I apparatus illustrated in Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a detail view illustrating the heating elements of the extractor shown in F ig. 1.;
In the drawing, 1 is a vacuum chamber having an outer heat insulating covering 2 and a lining 3 adapted to serve not only as an additional means for preventing the es-' cape of heat from the interior of the chamber 1, but more particularly for preventing harmful reaction between the metal wall of -most point in their rotation. livered to the conduit 6 from a hopper 8' chamber 13 and is surrounded the chamber and the material being treated,
as well as to protect the metal wall from the temperature within chamber 1.
Material is supplied direct] pockets 5 therein, in which the material lodges as the pockets pass through the lower portion of conduit'6. The drum 4 rotates within a block 7 and the surface of the drum,
with the exception of the pockets 5, makes a working fit with. said block whereby excluded,-but material which'lodges 1n pockets-7 is conveyed out of the I dropped into'the central upper portion of p to the chama ber by a rotating-feeding rum 4" having air is conduit 6- and chamber 1 as the pockets pass by the lower- Material is deinto which-it is fedby'feed pipe 9. pre
fer. to providean agitator 10 in the hopper 8 and a conveyoror feed worm 11 in the conconveniently mounted-on a common shaft 12. The major portion of conduit 6 is preferably enclosed within --a heat insulated ing coil 14 or other means for maintaining the temperature. within the conduit 6110- initially heat the material.
In case the materials solids mixed with excess of liquid, I remove the excess of liquid-by passing the materials over a screen or by means for eifecting such separation being i1- lu'strated in Fig. 2, in ,which 15 indicates a chamber'contalning an inclined screen 16. Material mixed with water is introduced into the chamber 15 through pipe 17, the
to be dried comprise other suitable means, a
duit 6, agitator 10 and worm 11 both being -7 by the heatsolid matter passing down stream 16 under" the influence of pipe 9 by whic itis conducted to the feed hopper 8 of the apparatus previously described. The liquid passing through screen 16 is drained out of chamber15 through pipe 18, and runs to waste.
Within the chamber 1 I arrangeheated elements 19 and 20. Elements 19 and 20 are preferably arranged near thewall of the chamber 1, and are covered on their outer sides by heat insulation 21, their inner sides radiating heat toward ,the centre of'the chamber. Preferably,,moreover, the inner surfaces of these elements are so arranged as (Donate a zone of intense radiant heat at gravity and out through the diant energy ;in,-a. circular line whose plane will be understood, however, that the lines is above drum",4, ithe major portion of the rays of energy from opposite sides of the element 19 crossing immediately below drum 4, as indicated by the lines 22 in Fig. 1. It
22 and 24 represent only diagrammatically a portion of the energy rays, and that other rays radiate in various directions from the heat sources in the element 19 and that while the zone ofinost intense heat will be as illustrated at the intersection of the diagrammatic lines 22 and 24, the entire interioror-bowl' of the radiant elements will be at a high heat. The circle on which element 19 tends to focus is indicated on Fig.
1 by the points 23, 23. Not all the rays of energy will, however, focus exactly at these points. The element 20 is arranged, as illustrated, to have a cylindrical inner face projecting its rays of radiant heat horizontally in a zone lying immediately below the block 7, as indicated by the lines 24. Where therays 22 cross rays 24 immediately below drum 4- is of course the point of most intense heat.' I may increase focusing, as shown, in order that the mate-- rial dropping from the pockets 5 and drum 4 may be acted on somewhat longer by the the intensity of the radiant-heat or energy immediately below drum'4 by forming the element20 so as to focus atth'is point, but I prefer that element 20 should be nonradiant heat. The elements 1 9 and 20 are supported from the wall of chamber 1 by suitable brackets, such as 25. I prefer to make these heaters or radiators 19 and 20 of the electric type wherever cheap electric power is available as in regions adjacent ydro-electric developments, but where electric power is expensive, it is more economical to use other methods of heating the radiators and have illustrated insulating bushings 26 extending throughthewall of chamher 1 through which electric conductors" 27 may be connected with the heaters. In the apparatus illustrated in Fig. II have arranged the resistance members ofelements19- and 20 in series so that only two bushings 26 are necessary. However I do not limit myself-to this. The elements 19 and 20 preferably are made of insulating material of somewhat refractory character, such as-fire clay and the resistance members are arranged in the refractory material in a well known manner, as indicated at 28, Fig. 4, the resistance wires being insulated-from the radiating body by a layer 28 of mica or like material. However, I do not limit'myself to any particular design of radiator.
The upper portion of chamber 1 connects with vapor conduits 29, 29, which are combined and connected toa pipe 30 (Fig. 3)-
removed. As the radiant energy is intense inthe zone immediately below the inlet drum 4, the moisture in the material bursts into steam, and if the material is not comminuted, the steam causes such comminution, at the same time that drying occurs. For instance, by myprocess and apparatus, I can produce a dried wood pulp with maximum economy by feeding moist partially digested chips to my apparatus. Due to the action are completely separated, but are of maximum length and strength.
The temperatureof radiating elements 19 and 20 is preferably as high as the resistance material will stand, as the higher the temperature the more rapid the drying action. The practical operating temperature limit when using nicrome wire as resistance materialis about 1800 F. Other resistance elements, olferi'ng a wide range oftemperatures may, however, be employed. Evidently, however, the higher the temperature of the heater or radiator, the morev rapidly a given material can be passed through the apparatus.
time it falls to the bottom ofthe vacuum chamber: The temperature of the material treated is kept down while in the zone of concentrated radiation by the evaporation and expansion of moisture therefrom and it of the steam, as described above, the fibres The material is dried by the is removed from the vacuum chamber assoon as or almost as soon as dry. The point of outlet for the material being only slight ly exposedto the radiant energy, the material can receive no damage while in the act of being removed from the chamber. -Moreover the sensibletemperature of the portions I be substantially a duplicate of the drum 4. r
The material may then be baled or otherwise prepared for shipment by means of a press 34: or other suitable apparatus. Preferably,
the discharge drum 33 delivers the comminuted and dried material directly to the compressing or packing apparatus illustrated in Fig. 1. The chamber and outlet pipes 29 must be of ample size so that water vapor will pass to the condenser without evidently reducing the vacuum in chamber 1. Moreover I do not wish the active surfaces of radiators 19 and 20 ever to fallbelow a red heat as then the vapor escaping from the material will slow down the transference of radiant energy to the material to such an extent that the material is not -sutlicientlydried in the zone of concentrated energy. In order to cause comminution of most organic solids the surfaces of these radiators must be at a bright red heat. I
It will be seen that I havedevised a process and apparatus whereby'materials may be dried rapidly with high economy of heat, and without damage to materials, even of a delicate character. I also accomplish comminution of the materials treated at the same time they are dried, provided their character makes it possible and desirable'to do so.
It will be understood that where I have used the word comminute or comminuted in the foregoing description and appended claims, I intend to include the idea of shredding. p
I anticipate using my invention in drying pulp, milk, cotton for spinning, cotton and otherfibrousv material, minerals, and other inorganic and organic substances, as well as simultaneously comminuting and drying woodchips and other materials.
While I have disclosed the preferred. man ner of practicing my invention, and illustrated and described the preferred apparatus according to my invention, I do not wish to be limited to details of description or illustration. 1
