Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of pneumatic conveying pipeline accessories, in particular to a flexible gamma elbow used for a pneumatic conveying pipeline for granular materials. Background Art

[0002] In the pneumatic conveying system, when granular materials pass through the elbow, due to the friction between their own rigidity and the inner wall of the elbow, it is easy to cause the particles to break and draw, affecting product quality and system efficiency.

[0003] Specific solutions of existing technologies: Rigid elbows are conventionally used, and their inner walls are smooth to reduce friction. However, the rigid structure cannot effectively adapt to the flow characteristics of granular materials, and there is still a high risk of breakage and wire drawing.

[0004] The defects of the prior art: although the inner wall of the rigid elbow is smooth, the impact force and friction force on the particles at the turning point are relatively large, and the problem of particle breakage and wire drawing cannot be fundamentally solved.

[0005] Therefore, we provide a flexible γ elbow for a pneumatic conveying pipeline for granular materials to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
