Bulk Conveyors TRIZ Cases

Pumping an aqueous slurry of water and tuberous vegetables through a pipeline reduces truck fuel consumption and facility operational costs.

Carrier gas mediates valve control to prevent powder contact, eliminating performance degradation and ensuring stable flow.

A fluidised silo with a pressurized gas element and cone outlet isolates the discharge reservoir from filling levels to stabilize alumina dosage accuracy.

Integrated shearing walls in the rotary valve inlet crush large agglomerates, eliminating detachable inserts that cause wear and metal contamination.

Flush ring seals and curved transitions remove dead volumes in cellular rotary valves, ensuring cleanable surfaces for food processing applications.

A multi-layered fluid distributor prevents material clumping by eliminating protruding tubes, enabling safe operation at 2900°F.

Seal bag isolates transfer line from high pressure, reducing maintenance and preventing catalyst grinding.

Adjustable sleeve uncovers nozzle apertures to manage air flow, preventing blockages from varying hose lengths.

Vision detection identifies test tubes by dimensions and markings, automating sorting to reduce manual labor costs and time consumption.

Selective valves and a purge plenum prevent channel plugging during sectional control, ensuring uniform application without seed damage.

Segmented chambers and dampening devices reduce polyolefin particle pressure to prevent damage during high-speed conveying.

Reverse air blasts through the filter maintain airflow and prevent resin adhesion on dump flaps.

Inflatable membranes on a movable head lift apples from a fluid tank, preventing damage while reducing water consumption and space requirements.

Tapered web casting lowers torque and squeaking in cellular rotary feeders.

Segmented plenums with baffles regulate air pressure and flow to prevent hose plugging in pneumatic seed metering systems.

A locking assembly prevents concurrent gate opening during clean-out, stopping seed material from draining into conduits and causing blockages.

Air permeation system removes entrapped gas from powder in a hopper to enable steady material flow through a variable speed feeder.

A spring-loaded check valve prevents air backflow and compressed waste by lowering activation pressure through anti-weight mechanics.
