Definitions
- An electrostatic separator comprising a pre-ionization zone and an attracting zone, each provided with two sets of electrodes, of which one set, in the pre-ionization zone, forms the emitting electrodes, each one thereof comprising a thin metal strip laid out in a transverse plane with reference to the direction of flow of the gas to be separated.
- the present invention relates to an electrostatic separator comprising a pre-ionization zone and an attracting zone, each provided with two sets of electrodes, of which one set, in the pre-ionization Zone, forms the emitting electrodes.
- Electrostatic separators are known wherein the emitting electrodes comprise metal filaments; these, generally produced from tungsten, oxidise rapidly and become brittle, which causes disturbances in the operation of the separator, such as short-circuits calling for stoppages of the separator in order to replace broken filaments, and the like.
- each emitting electrode comprises a thin metal strip laid out in a transverse plane with reference to the direction of flow of the gas to be separated.
- the strips provide in themselves stiffer elements than the filaments previously used as emitting electrodes; they are therefore less sensitive to vibrations during the transport and operation of the dust separator, the more so as they provide better means of fastening to the members supporting them.
- the strip projects onto a metal surface positioned in a plane substantially parallel to the direction of flow of the gas to be separated, which ensures a predominantly unidirectional electron flux because of the repulsion of the electrons produced by the said surface.
- the emitting strips are inclined towards the attracting zone.
- This inclination offers the advantage that the electrons emitted by corona effect are directed towards the adjacent electrode of opposite potential, under an angle exceeding 90; this displacement of the electrons causes in turn an air draught through the electro-separator in the direction of flow of the [gas to be separated.
- This automatic air draught reduces correspondingly the head losses usually encountered in electrostatic separators.
- a double emitting electrode comprised of a fairly thin, channel-shaped metal section, the legs of which are each provided with a portion bent towards the adjacent non emitting electrode.
- the invention has also for its object a device for the periodical cleansing of the electrodes of the electrostatic separator permanently connected with the separator device the design of which was favored by the particular 3,540,191 Patented Nov. 17, 1970 construction of the electrodes, which are the first object of the present application.
- the separator comprises cleansing members extending substan tially parallel to the direction of flow of the gas to be separated, these cleansing members being connected to means to move them inside channels determined between adjacent electrodes of opposite potential during the periods of cleaning the separator.
- FIG. 1 shows an elevational sectional view along line I--I of FIG. 2' of an electrostatic separator according to the invention.
- FIG. 2 shows a sectional view along line IIII of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of a detail of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 4 shows a front view of part of a modification of embodiment of a separator according to the invention.
- FIG. 5 shows a sectional view along line VV of FIG. 4.
- the electrostatic separator shown on the drawings comprises a metal vessel 1 with an admission opening 2 and a discharge opening 3 of the gas to be separated.
- low tension electrodes 4 made from plates taking up nearly the entire width of the vessel, and threaded on three pairs of metal stems 5 fastened by means of screws 6 on the Walls 7 of the vessel; on the other hand, high tension electrodes, each comprising two plates 8, 8' in alignment, threaded on stems 9 fastened on insulators 10- carried on the walls 7.
- the length of the plates 8, 8 is less than half the length of the plates 4 and they are positioned so as to leave between them a free space 11 and leave uncovered a part 12 of the adjacent plates 4, on the side of the walls of the vessel 1.
- the plates 4 are kept at the required spacing the ones from the others by cylindrical distance pieces 13, threaded on the stems 5; similarly the plates 8, 8' are kept spaced one from the other by means of distance pieces 14 threaded on the stems 9. 7
- each low tension plate 4 directed towards the admission '2 of the vessel is mounted riderfashion, in sliding contact, a thin metal channel section 17, the legs of which are bent in direction of the adjacent plates 8, 8" and towards the discharge opening 3, so
- each of the faces of the plates 4 carries a second thin metal section with a portion 19 welded on the plate 4 and a projecting strip 20, inclined parallel to the adjacent strip 18.
- the separator comprises cleansing members for the plates 4, 8, 8- as well as emitting electrodes 18, '20. These members comprise brushes 21 provided with a reciprocal movement in the channels determined each time between a plate 4 and the adjacent plates 8, '8'.
- Each brush comprises a central stem 22 fastened at the top end thereof by a square 23 to a channel shaped runner 24 mounted so as to slide along the downstream rim 25 of the plates 4.
- Each plate 4 carries indeed two sections 17 in alignment 17, 17, each of which corresponds to one half of the length of the plate; the ends of the section 17 are bent at right angles so as provide fins 36.
- the fins 36 of the sections 17, 17' are seized each time between a U-shaped sustaining component 37 and a small plate 38.
- Said plate 38 has a central recess 43 (FIG. 2) around the emitting channel section 17 and said plate 38 is rigidly connected to the fins 36 and the adjacent face of the sustaining component 37 by means of bolts 44.
- the fins 36 adjacent to the sections 17, 17 are pinched between two U-shaped sustaining components 39, 40.
- the stem 22 of the brushes 21 provided at the inlet of the channels determined between the plates 4 and the plates 8 is fastened at its bottom end to the corresponding U-shaped sustaining component 37 while the stem 22 of the brushes provided at the inlet of the channels determined between the plates 4- and the plates 8' is fastened to the corresponding Ushaped sustaining component 39.
- a handle 27 connected to the small plates 38 located on the side of the wall 30' and to the end facing said wall 30 of the runners 24 by means of arms 28 passing through ports 29 in the wall 30 of the vessel, permits movement of the brushes 21, which at rest are aligned outside the said channels in order to prevent short circuits. In fact, when the handle 27 is actuated, it pulls simultaneously on the runners 24 and on the thin metal emitting channel section 17, thus the runners 24 and channel section 17 move along the corresponding rims of the plates together with the brushers 21.
- the tension of the separator is cut out and the plates are cleaned by producing a reciprocal movement of the brushes 21 along the rims 16 and of the plates 4 by any appropriate mechanical means.
- FIGS. 4, 5 relate to an electrostatic separator of the same type as that described hereinbefore, but wherein the direction of flow of the gas to be separated is horizontal.
- the plates 8 are made from one piece, likewise the sections 17 which are mounted in a stationary manner on the rims of the plates 4.
- the vessel is closed by means of a removable cover 4-5, fastened by means of bolts 46 to the side walls 47.
- Flanges 48 carried on the walls 47 determine an admission opening 49 and an exhaust opening 50 for the gas.
- the brushes 51 are carried on two arms 53, 54, fastenecl outside the vessel 1, to two angles 55 part of a frame 56 having a central transverse member 57 whereon is mounted a cylinder 58 of a hydraulic ram, the piston rod 59 thereof is fastened to the cover 45.
- the length of the arms 53 is about equal to the height of the plates 4, so that when the hydraulic ram is actuated, the brushes, normally positioned in the top part of the vessel, on the outside of the channels determined each time between the electrodes 4 and the adjacent electrodes 8, are impelled with a vertical reciprocal motion in the said channels.
- emitting electrodes may be provided facing each of the electrodes of opposite potential.
- the emitting electrodes may be carried by the insulated plates, which are then connected for preference to the negative pole of the tension source, the vessel and the plates which are in electric contact therewith being connected to earth same as the positive pole of the tension source.
- the cleansing members may be carried out as scrapers mounted in the same manner as the brushes shown in the drawings.
