AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention relates to a sealing mechanism for a rotating machine used for conveyance of goods. The technical effects of the invention include prevention of reduction of the quality of the conveyed goods due to abraded particles from the sealing mechanism, using a lamellar or bristle structure for the sealing lips, and materials like polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, and others to prevent contamination in recycling processes. Additionally, the sealing lips can be made of foil elements with abrasive materials like polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, and others to achieve better compensation of uneven surfaces. The sealing lips can be mounted on the rotor blades or the cellular wheel for easy adjustment to different goods being conveyed.

Problems solved by technology

Moreover, the abraded particles can no longer be detected in the goods to be conveyed after they have passed the cellular wheel sluice.

Embodiment Construction

[0036]FIG. 1 shows a cellular wheel sluice 1 according to the disclosure for conveying goods to be conveyed 2 in a lateral view. One can see a cyclone 13 in which a mixture of goods to be conveyed 2 and a carrier gas 11 are being separated, and the goods to be conveyed 2 are then further transported from an inlet opening 14 to an outlet opening 15 in the cellular wheel sluice 1. Here, the pressure is higher in the region of the inlet opening 14 than in the region of the outlet opening 15. The goods to be conveyed 2 are here, for example, polyethylene.

[0037]The goods to be conveyed 2 get into the inlet 12 of the cyclone 13 together with the carrier gas 11. Here, the carrier gas 11 has such a high flow rate that the goods to be conveyed 2 are transported through a preceding pipeline system (not represented here) and the inlet 12. Due to the high flow rate of the carrier gas 11, a swirl under high pressure forms in the cyclone 13, where the flow rate in the tapering portion of the cycl...

Abstract

A method for conveying goods to be conveyed with a cellular wheel sluice, where in a housing, the goods to be conveyed are conveyed with rotor blades of the rotating cellular wheel, and sealing lips of the rotor blades abut against at least one sealing surface of the housing, and where during the transport of certain goods to be conveyed, a sealing surface and / or sealing lips can be used which are formed from an abrasive material that is contained in the goods to be conveyed.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]The present application claims the benefit of priority of German Application No. 102012214185.5, filed Aug. 9, 2012. The entire text of the priority application is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE[0002]The disclosure relates to a method and a device for conveying goods to be conveyed with a cellular wheel sluice.BACKGROUND[0003]Cellular wheel sluices are usually employed for dosing goods to be conveyed or for introducing and discharging them into or out of bulk processes. The cellular wheel sluices can be installed e. g. in recycling plants, silos, bunkers or hoppers, mixers, driers, mills or in conveyor lines and are mainly used for the separation from machines or processes with different pressure ranges and for volumetric dosing.[0004]In such methods, the goods to be conveyed are transported in a housing by rotor blades of the rotating cellular wheel, the rotor blades forming rotor cells in the pro...
