Abstract:
A device for comminuting feed material is provided that has a housing including longitudinal walls and transverse walls for accommodating a rotor that rotates about a longitudinal axis. The rotor is equipped about its circumference with processing tools, and has, on its faces, an annular disk, each of which is concentric to the longitudinal axis. Within the housing, at least one screen path extends over a part of the circumference of the rotor, each screen path running at a slight radial distance from the annular disks while forming a seal gap. The feed material is supplied to the rotor through a feed shaft and is directed out of the device via a material discharge extending downstream of the screen path. In order to return material that emerges through the seal gap to the remaining material flow annular disks are each arranged with an axial clearance A from the transverse walls.

Abstract:
A device for comminuting input material, especially for fine and ultrafine grinding of input material, includes a rotor revolving around a shaft inside a housing, the rotor having a cylindrical or conical jacket surface. An annular gap is present between the housing and the jacket surface, the gap forming a comminution zone and the input material being introduced axially to it. To increase the economic efficiency of the device, it is provided that a plurality of first pin-shaped comminuting tools for comminuting the input material are disposed over the circumference of the rotor, wherein the tools are aligned with their longitudinal direction perpendicular to the jacket surface in the direction of the housing.
Abstract:
A device for mixing, grinding, drying, deagglomeration, crushing, or coating of feedstock with a rotor is provided, rotating around an axis within a housing, and a stator, fixed relative to the housing, encompassing the rotor with maintenance of a radial working gap. The rotor has rotor tools, which are distributed over its outer surface and whose active edges for crushing the feedstock work together with the stator tools on the inner circumference of the stator. In this regard, the feedstock is supplied in the carrier gas stream to the working gap. For effective processing of the feedstock, it is proposed according to the invention that in the outer surface of the rotor a plurality of indentations is introduced, whereby areas between two adjacent indentations form webs, which form the active edges of the rotor tools.
Abstract:
A device for grinding input material is provided with a supporting disk rotating around an axis of rotation within a housing. On the supporting disk, in its circumferential area, first grinding tools are arranged concentrically, axially opposite from which second grinding tools are arranged, forming a radial grinding gap. During operation of a device in accordance with the invention, the grinding tools execute a motion relative to one another. In accordance with an embodiment, the first grinding tools be fastened over an interchangeable ring to the supporting disk, wherein the interchangeable ring is fastened removably to the supporting disk concentric to the axis of rotation and on which the first grinding tools are arranged.
Abstract:
The invention is directed to a device for converting free-flowing feed material (43), for example, foils, fibers, foam products, powders, and the like of organic and/or inorganic materials into granules, agglomerates, pellets, green compacts, and the like by applying pressure with a cylindrical compression chamber (17), which is arranged around an axis (1). At its periphery, the compression chamber (17) is confined by a ring element (18) with passage openings (19), and it accommodates a pressure element (10) that rotates around the axis (1) in the direction of rotation (27). The feed material (43) is axially conveyed to the compression chamber (17) and is radially supplied to the ring element (18) by the pressure element (10). The pressure element (10) includes at least one pressing blade (9), which extends to and interacts with the ring element (18), the front flank (28) of said pressing blade in the direction of rotation (27) being curved such that between pressure arm (9) and ring element (18), a narrowing compression zone (30) is formed, the end of which is formed by a pressure piece (29, 42). Due to the thus fixedly defined geometry of the compression zone, various process parameters, for example, pressure, temperature, and viscosity of the feed material, cannot be influenced while being processed. The remedy of this disadvantage provided by the present invention is such that the segment of the pressing blade (9), which is positioned in front of the pressure piece (29, 42) in the direction of rotation (27), and which forms the compression chamber (30), is at least in part formed by a shape component (31, 40), which is detachably connected to the pressing blade (9), the spine of which (34) determines the contour of the compression zone (30).
Abstract:
An apparatus for comminuting materials includes a rotating or stationary ring of knives that is arranged around a chipping chamber. The ring of knives is has a plurality of knife carriers, which are distributed around the knife ring axis in a circular shape, each knife carrier having a bearing surface. The bearing surface is a receptacle for a knife package that is comprised of a knife retaining plate and a slicing knife, and which is held in an operational position at a predetermined angle and a predetermined blade projection by fasteners. The knife carrier has a reference surface, which interacts with the knife package, and based on which the blade projection is determined. The slicing knife has at least one recess that originates in a rearward longitudinal edge, whereby the reference surface is arranged on the projection inside the recess, the projection extending vertically to the bearing surface.
Abstract:
A cutting unit for comminuting bulky feedstock and a device into which such a cutting unit is integrated. The cutting unit has a cutting chamber, which is arranged along a conveying direction and is formed by paired opposite cross walls and longitudinal walls. A knife for comminuting the feedstock can be moved transverse to the conveying direction across the entire cross section of the cutting chamber from one cross wall to the opposite cross wall. To also assure the complete cutting through of fiber-containing or film-shaped feedstock, a counter knife is arranged in the cross wall opposite to the blade of the knife which is stationary relative to the cutting chamber and which during the cutting process forms a cutting gap with the blade of the knife. The wall segment of the opposite cross wall is placed movable in the advance direction of the knife.
Abstract:
Apparatus for comminuting pourable feedstock, including a housing surrounding a comminution space, in which housing a rotor rotating about an axis is disposed, the rotor being equipped around its circumference with rotor tools. A screen is disposed here along one portion of the rotor circumference. The apparatus is charged with feedstock through a product inlet, and the sufficiently comminuted product is drawn off through a product discharge. The product discharge includes a suction bin to collect the screen through fraction, which bin can be connected to a suction line to allow the collected product to be transported away. In order to improve the accessibility of the rotor for repair and maintenance work while simultaneously preserving a compact constructive design of the apparatus, the screen and the suction bin form one unit that can be swiveled as a whole about a horizontal swivel axis relative to the rotor.
