JO5EF KLAG5BRUNN Patented Mar. 27, 1951 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2,546,860 CENTRIFUGAL MILL Josef Klagsbrunn, Geneva, Switzerland Application February 25, 1948, Serial No. 10,593 In Yugoslavia September 5, 1939 Section 1, Public Law 690, August 8, 1946 Patent expires September 5, 1959 6 Claims. (Cl. 241- 74) This invention relates to centrifugal mills.
Centrifugal mills are known in which the ma terial to be ground is introduced axially and is thrown against stationary grooved, toothed.
or trough-like grinding rims by means of rapidly rotating centrifugal members and thus com minuted. In these and in similar centrifugal mills, the material to be ground, after undergoing one or more grinding stages. reaches a grid or sieve through which particles of the product of the desired size pass and leave the mill, while the residue rejected by the grid or sieve is thrown around and ground on the latter until it is likewise sufficiently comminuted and passes through. This constitutes a great disadvantage in centrifugal mills, since through such grinding on the grids or sieves heavy losses occur, whilst the output of the mill is decreased and the power consumption increased. Moreover, in consequence of the friction, the material may also be exposed to a detrimental heating when the latter is sensitive to heat. and when the material is combustible this maylead to the danger of fire, The present invention aims at obviating the foregoing drawback by carrying out the. grinding and sifting simultaneously but in separate parts of the apparatus, the material to be ground bein thrown back by rebound surfaces on to the sieve or grid surfaces, whereupon the correspondin grain size is sifted off and the residue is diverted to another path. This not only eliminates the foregoing disadvantages, but also simplifies the design of the mill.
In order to enable the invention to be more readily understood, reference is made to the accompanying drawings which illustrate diagrammatically and by Way of example various embodiments thereof, and in which:
Fig. 1 is an axial section of one form of mill drum made according to the invention; and Fig. 2 a radial section of the same drum; Figs. 3 and 4 are corresponding cross-sections of a second embodiment;
Figs. 5 and 6 are respectively a side and an end elevation of a centrifugal grinding tool;
Figs. '7 and 8 are corresponding views of another embodiment of centrifugal tool;
Figs. 9 and 10 are respectively a longitudinal section and a cross-section of a multi-stage form of the centrifugal mill.
In the figures, a denotes the inlet hopper of the mill, b the striking members or centrifugal grinding tools; c the rebound surface members, and d the grids or sieves.
In the embodiment shown in Figs. 1 and 2. the rotor or drum with the centrifugal tools 12. throws the material to be ground against the rebound. surface members 01, which are disposed between two rings n and s1 and surrounded on the outside by an annular grid all. The angle and shape of the rebound surfaces or and of. the centrifugal tools In are so arranged that the material to be ground, which is comminuted and thrown back by the rebound surfaces. is thrown on to the grid. where the corresponding grain size passes through and leaves the mill through. an aperture or apertures in grid d1, while the residue bein of too large grain size to pass throu h. is diverted on to another path. preferably axially of; the mill.
Figs. 3 and 4 show another embodiment. which the rebound surfaces or are surrounded y a perfor ted ring do serving as a iev It is also possible to dispose the grid or sieve, for example, in the form of an annular segment of a circle to the side of the rebound surfaces. or otherwise near the latter. instead of around the rebound surfaces. In the case, of lateral arrangements. $1 in Fig. 1. would be the grid or sieve. while (11 would be a solid bounding wall. The shape and angle of the rebound surfaces 01 must then of course be so designed and radially disposed that the material rebounds in a lateral direction.
The residue rejected by the sieve, which is of too coarse a grain and'therefore cannot pass through the sieve or grid, is passed out of the mill, or out of the stage of the mill, axially along another path, and for the purposes of further grinding can then either be returned to the same grinding stage or passed to another stage.
By using multi-stage mills in accordance with the invention, the particular advantage can be obtained that a different sifting stage can be allocated to each grinding stage, so that a plurality of products ground to different desired grain sizes can be produced by the same mill.
This arrangement affords a particular advantage, when grinding corn, where it is essential to separate the more easily ground grain from the more diflicultly ground husk (bran) as well as when grinding all non-homogeneous materials containing more easily and more diflicultly grindable' components, i. e. both natural products (wood, straw, stalks, fodder, asbestos, bristles, feathers), and also synthetic or waste products (such as felt, paper, leather or rags), when it is important to grind the solid components and to separate the unground fibrous parts. The. fibers'or residue remaining upon the sieve which is of too coarse a grain and therefore cannot pass through the sieve so as to be ground is passed out of this stage of the mill along another path to the next grinding stage.
Of course, the proper design of the centrifugal tools or members definitely contributes to the effective operation of the apparatus as a; whole.
In this connection, several forms of construction or design of centrifugal tools or grinding members are illustrated in Figs. to 8. In these forms of construction thus shown, the centrifugal tools have a helical pitch which introduces two desirable advantages. Primarily, the result is it is thrown by the strikers 22 secured to the rotor 1 against the rebound surfaces 0, comminuted and sifted by the grid at. The material which passes through the grid leaves the mill at I, while the residue passes into the second grinding stage 2 comprising the strikers e, rebound surfaces the grid 9, where the process is repeated, and likewise also in the third stage.
If the mill is not intended to supply at the same time different grain sizes, but only one ground product of a predetermined degree of fineness, this can be achieved by the provision of 7 identical sieves in all grinding stages.
that the mill operates more smoothly because Figs. 9 and 10 show an advantageous device for the simultaneous regulation both of the distance between the striking surfaces and the rebound surfaces, and of the width of the cross-sectional certain extent as a conveyor screw, which considerably accelerates the axial delivery of the material to be ground. Figs. 5 and 6 illustrate a four-edged centrifugal tool, while Figs. '7 and 8 show a centrifugal tool having a three-edged profile.
-In order to achieve the effect of softening impact, the rebound surface may be twisted instead of the centrifugal tools-or both the rebound surface and the centrifugal tool may be twisted. Another possible way of achieving this effect is to design the striking surfaces 1) and or the rebound surfaces c in the form of steps, the effect of which is also that the material to be ground does not impinge atthe same time on the entire lengthof the striking or. rebound surfaces, but successively on the various .parts of the "length.
A further improvement can be achieved by making'th'e mutual-angle ofthe striking and rebound 'surfac'esb-and c, which decides the direction of the rebour'id of the material ground, ad- J'ustable. 1 F
This can be effected, for example, by rotatably fixing the centrifugalbo dies in the rotor, as is illustrated in Figs. 5 and 6. 'The rotor is desig' nated'by 9', and in it the centrifugal body In is rotatably secured. After loosening the screw 1;, the body-can be adjusted as desired by the round neeku...
f '1 f In order to adjust the-mutual angle: of the striking and-rebound surfaces, the rebound surfaces can naturally be made adjustable instead of the striking surfaces, or they can both be adjustable. w '1 V I ,If it-is desired to grind material which is tough or difiicult to grind, it is advantageous to provide one or more pre-grinding-stages, which comminute the material'to some extent before it reaches the grinding-stage with the simultaneous sifting, ahead of -the sifting-and grinding stage or stages. .In these preliminary, stages the adjustability of the mutual angle of the striking and rebound surfaces is particularly important. For since the direction of reboundof the material ground can be influenced by the angle of inclination of the striking and rebound surfaces,
theadjustment enables the material to be ground, to be left a shorter or longer time in the grinding stage in question and therefore to be ground to agreater or less extent. I
Figs. 9 and 10 illustrate a further embodiment of the invention, namely a three-stage mill. Each of the threegrindingstagesd, 2 and;3- of said mill is equipped with an outlet I, 'II' and 'III for the-ground product; ;Th e jmaterial to be ground passes at a through the-hopper into the mill, andthen into the iirstjgrindingstage I, where passage from one grinding stage to the next, even during operation, in order to accelerate or to retard the grinding process in accordance with the grinding work of the material. To this end, both the rebound surfaces and the striking surfaces are sloped, so that when they are horizon tally adjusted relatively to one another, the distance between them in the vertical direction is also altered. At the same time the passage crosssections for the residues rejected by the sieves from one grinding stage to the next, which are formed by the outer Walls of the rebound surface rings and the vertical rotor wall, are also enlarged or reduced. This is effected by displacement of the rotor secured to the shaft in the axial direction. In addition, further blades or strikers X are mounted on the rotor on the side opposite to that carrying strikers e, being disposed at a greater radial distance from the rotor axis than these strikers and adding their further contrifugal grinding effect to the operation of the mill as a further step of operation in the latter. In Fig. 9, h denotes the distance between the sloping surfaces, and z the passage cross-section. The distance it and the passage crosssection 2' are regulated by axial displacement of the rotor 1'. The mill shaft 7c runs in the ball bearings l1 and 12.. l
The bearings are disposed in the two bearing bushes m2 and me, which are connected by the shield" mi." The bush ms is provided with an internal thread '0, into which the'sleeve q is screwed'by means of the hand-wheel r. In order to secure the'hand-wheel, screws in and 302 are provided, which can be swung out around the bolts m and 122. I By turning the hand-wheel, the shaft is moved in the axial direction and thereby regulates both the distance between the striking and rebound surfaces, and the passage aperture for the residue rejected by the sieve.
The invention is obviously not restricted to the embodiments described, but can be carried outin other ways, namely by carrying out the grinding and sifting simultaneously in the same grinding stages, but with the aid ofseparate members. In addition to the aforementioned economic and technical advantages, the advantage is thus obtained that especially in the case of rough and coarse grinding, the desired ground product is obtained with suitable grain size and with considerable elimination of powdering. The arrangement of the present invention has been found particularly convenient not only for the grinding .;of corn and the'like, but also for industrial grindmg. ;-WhatIclaimis:' i g.
