Abstract:
In a method for guiding and/or instructing in a feed-in station of a material conveying system, the feed-in station includes at least one first input point and at least one second input point, which input points each include at least one input aperture and a shut-off part of the input aperture, which shut-off part is movable between a first position in which the input aperture is at least partly closed, in which case material is not intended to be fed from the input aperture to inside the input point, and a second position in which the input aperture is open, in which second position material can be fed from the input aperture to inside the input point. The first input point and/or the second input point is adapted to include an indicator and/or signal, with which in the method a user is guided and/or instructed to feed in material from the input aperture of the second input point of the feed-in station, when the first input point is in a state in which it cannot receive material. An input point arrangement is used in the method.
Abstract:
Method for feeding in and for handling waste material in the channel section of a pneumatic wastes conveying system, in which method waste material or recycleable material is fed into a feed-in container from the input aperture of an input point of a pneumatic pipe transport system for material and onwards into the channel section between the feed-in container and the material conveying pipe, from where the material is conveyed along with the transporting air via the material conveying pipe to the delivery end of the pneumatic material conveying system, where the material is separated from the transporting air. In the method the material is acted upon by the combined effect of suction and replacement air in the channel section by bringing about compression in size in at least a part of the material being conveyed, by means of an impediment arranged between the conveying pipe and the material to be handled, or against the impediment, before transportation of the material to the delivery end of the pneumatic transport system for wastes.
Abstract:
A method for handling material in a pneumatic materials handling system, in which material, such as waste material, is input from an input aperture of an input point, such as from an input aperture of a refuse chute or of some other input point, and is handled with a shaping device, arranged in connection with the input point or in the proximity of it, to be more compact and is transferred onwards. The shaping device is a rotary shaper, which includes rotatable handling device, which includes an aperture, which is arranged eccentrically with respect to the axis of rotation, and which rotary shaper includes at least one stationary handling device, in which case the material to be handled is conducted into the rotary shaper and/or through it at least partly by means of gravity and/or suction and/or a pressure difference.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for feeding and conveying material in a sorted manner in a pneumatic material conveying system, in which at least two material fractions re fed from a feed aperture and conveyed in a channel space further to a delivery end of a material conveying channel by gravity and/or suction Material is fed from at least one feed aperture of at least one input point and a first material fraction is conducted to the channel space and stored temporarily in the channel space or conducted to the outside of the channel space, and material is fed into a feed-in container, in which a second material fraction fed therein is held in temporary storage by a stopper means.
Abstract:
A method for handling material and conveying air in a pneumatic conveying system for material, which conveying system comprises at least one input point (1) for material, a material conveying pipe (100), which is connectable to an input point (1), and at least two separating devices (10A, 10B), in which the material being conveyed is separated from the conveying air, and also means for bringing about a pressure difference and/or a transporting air flow in the conveying pipe (100) at least during the conveyance of material, which means comprise at least one partial-vacuum source (21). In the method, material is conveyed in a transporting air flow in a material conveying pipe from an input point in a selected manner into one of at least two separating devices (10A, 10B), and that at least one of the aforementioned separating devices (10A, 10B) is configured to function as the standby separating device of a second separating device.

Abstract:
A method is provided for feeding in and transporting material in a pneumatic conveying system for material, which conveying system includes at least one input point of material, a material conveying pipe, which can be connected to the input point, and a material container, in which the material being transported is separated from the transporting air, and also a device configured to product a partial vacuum/a pressure difference and/or a transporting air current in the conveying pipe at least during the transporting of the material, which device includes at least one partial-vacuum source. In the method, the suction side of the partial-vacuum source is connected to act in the conveying pipe and onwards to an input point arranged in the conveying pipe, or to act at least in the feeder channel that is between the conveying pipe and the input point, in which case the input point, or at least the feeder channel, intended for emptying that is closest to the material container in the conveying direction of the material empties and the material displaces into the conveying pipe, that arranged in the input point, on the inside of said input point and on the opposite side of the input aperture with respect to the feeder channel, is a shut-off element, which is moved by means of the suction produced by the partial-vacuum source from a first position, in which the shut-off element does not make the pathway through the input aperture into the feeder channel essentially smaller, into a second position, in which the shut-off element does make the pathway through the input aperture into the feeder channel essentially smaller, when the pressure on the first side, on the feeder channel side, of the shut-off element is smaller than on the second side, on the opposite side with respect to the feeder channel, of the shut-off element.
