Die deutsche Patentanmeldung DE 1 154 217 B offenbart eine Pressenvorrichtung zur Gewinnung von Öl bestehend aus einer horizontalen Förderschnecke, einer vertikalen Förderschnecke sowie einer horizontalen Pressschnecke. In der horizontalen Förderschnecke wird das Ausgangsmaterial, z. B. ölhaltige Kerne, eingefüllt und bis zu der vertikalen Förderschnecke waagerecht befördert, wo dann das Ausgangsmaterial senkrecht nach unten weitergefördert wird. Die vertikale Schnecke befördert das Ausgangsmaterial dann in die Pressschnecke, in der es dann ausgepresst wird.The German patent application DE 1 154 217 B discloses a press apparatus for recovering oil consisting of a horizontal auger, a vertical auger and a horizontal auger. In the horizontal auger, the starting material, for. As oily cores, filled and transported horizontally up to the vertical auger, where then the starting material is conveyed vertically downwards.

Die in Figur 1 dargestellte Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von Ölen aus Saatgut weist ein Gehäuse 1 auf, innerhalb dessen sich eine um eine im Wesentlichen horizontale Drehachse 2 drehbar angeordnete und mittels eines Motors 3 antreibbare Pressspindel 4 befindet, wie sie aus dem eingangs genannten Stand der Technik an sich bekannt ist. Im Einlaufbereich 6 der Pressspindel 4 endet eine Stopfschnecke 5, welche der Vorrichtung frisches Saatgut sowie rückgeführtes Öl und Trübstoffe zuführt, und welche von einem eigenen Motor 14 angetrieben wird. Die Stopfschnecke 5 weist eine im Wesentlichen horizontal verlaufende Drehachse 7 auf, welche wiederum im Wesentlichen orthogonal zu der auch horizontal verlaufenden Drehachse 2 der Pressspindel 4 ist. Die Stopfschnecke 5 mündet als horizontal, und nicht wie bei den im Stand der Technik bekannten Vorrichtungen von oben, in den Einlaufbereich 6 der Pressspindel 4.In the FIG. 1 shown device for the production of oils from seed has a housing 1, within which is arranged about a substantially horizontal axis of rotation 2 rotatably mounted and driven by a motor 3 press spindle 4, as is known per se from the aforementioned prior art , In the inlet region 6 of the press spindle 4 ends a plug screw 5, which feeds the device fresh seed and recycled oil and turbid matter, and which is driven by its own motor 14. The plug screw 5 has a substantially horizontally extending axis of rotation 7, which in turn is substantially orthogonal to the horizontal axis of rotation 2 of the press spindle 4. The plug screw 5 opens as a horizontal, and not in the inlet region 6 of the press spindle 4 as in the prior art devices from above.

Unterhalb der Pressspindel 4 weist das Gehäuse 1 eine Ölwanne 10 auf, in welcher sich das von der Pressspindel 4 ausgepresste Öl sammelt. In diese Ölwanne 10 ragt ein Kratzförderer 11, der unter einem Winkel von etwa 45° schräg nach oben führt, und in welchem eine Förderkette mit Mitnehmern läuft, wobei die Mitnehmer der Förderkette Sediment, Trübstoffe, Feststoffe und Partikel nach Art eines Kratzförderers 11 aus der Ölwanne 10 herauskratzen und schräg nach oben befördern, bis zu einer Übergabestation 15, von der aus das Sediment, die Trübstoffe, die Partikel und Sedimente unter Wirkung der Schwerkraft dem Beginn der Stopfschnecke 5 zugeführt werden und somit erneut in den Kreislauf gelangen können.Below the press spindle 4, the housing 1 has an oil pan 10, in which the oil pressed out by the press spindle 4 collects. In this sump 10 projects a scraper conveyor 11, which leads at an angle of about 45 ° obliquely upwards, and in which a conveyor chain runs with drivers, the driver of the conveyor chain sediment, turbidity, solids and particles like a scraper conveyor 11 from the Scrape oil pan 10 and carry upwards diagonally to a transfer station 15, from which the sediment, the turbid matter, the particles and sediments are fed under the action of gravity to the beginning of the screw conveyor 5 and thus can get back into the circulation.

Die Vorrichtung verfügt schließlich über eine Vorwärmschnecke 8, deren Drehachse 9 im Wesentlichen parallel zur Drehachse 2 der Pressspindel 4 verläuft, also orthogonal zur Drehachse 7 der Stopfschnecke 5. Die Vorwärmschnecke 8 wärmt aufgegebenes Gut vor und führt es dem Eingangsbereich der Stopfschnecke 5 zu.Finally, the apparatus has a preheating screw 8, the axis of rotation 9 of which runs essentially parallel to the axis of rotation 2 of the press spindle 4, ie orthogonal to the axis of rotation 7 of the screw conveyor 5. The preheating screw 8 warms up the material which has been introduced and feeds it to the inlet area of the plug screw 5.

Der Bereich der Ölwanne 10 und des Kratzförderers 11 ist in Figur 2 deutlicher dargestellt. Hier sieht man das Gehäuse 1 mit der Pressspindel 4, welche um die Drehachse 2, welche senkrecht zur Zeichenebene verläuft, rotiert und den Einlaufbereich 6, wobei hier besonders deutlich zu sehen ist, dass der Einlaufbereich 6 seitlich (und nicht nach oben) zu der Pressspindel 4 angeordnet ist. Über die Stopfschnecke 5 mit der Drehachse 7 kann das Material, nämlich das Saatgut, dem Einlaufbereich 6 zugeführt werden, wobei die Stopfschnecke 5 über einen ihr zugeordneten Motor 14 antreibbar ist.The area of the oil pan 10 and the scraper conveyor 11 is in FIG. 2 shown more clearly. Here you can see the housing 1 with the press spindle 4, which rotates about the rotation axis 2, which is perpendicular to the plane, and the inlet region 6, which is particularly clear that the inlet region 6 side (and not up) to the Press spindle 4 is arranged. About the stuffing screw 5 with the axis of rotation 7, the Material, namely the seed, the inlet region 6 are supplied, wherein the plug screw 5 is driven via a motor 14 associated therewith.

Ebenfalls in Figur 2 dargestellt ist ein Querschnitt durch die Ölwanne 10 sowie durch den Kratzförderer 11, welcher eine Förderkette mit Mitnehmern aufweist, die von der Ölwanne 10 über ein seitlich nach oben abragendes Rohr bis hin zur Übergabestation 15 führt. Die Mitnehmer sind an der Förderkette so angeordnet, dass sie die Ölwanne 10 an ihrem Boden freikratzen und sich kratzend an der Innenwandung nach oben bewegen.Also in FIG. 2 a cross section through the oil pan 10 and by the scraper conveyor 11, which has a conveyor chain with drivers, which leads from the oil pan 10 via a laterally upwardly projecting tube up to the transfer station 15. The drivers are arranged on the conveyor chain so that they scratch the oil pan 10 at its bottom and move scratching on the inner wall upwards.

Die Vorrichtung funktioniert wie folgt:
Das zu pressende Saatgut, aus welchem das Öl hergestellt werden soll, wird an der Übergabestation 15 eingefüllt und der Stopfschnecke 5 übergeben, welche durch ihren Motor 14 zur Rotation um ihre Drehachse 7 angetrieben wird und das Material unter Druck seitlich dem Einlaufbereich 6 der Pressspindel 4 zuführt. Dort wird das Material innerhalb der Pressspindel 4 weiter komprimiert und ausgepresst, wie es aus dem Stand der Technik an sich bekannt ist, wobei das ausgepresste Öl, jedoch auch Trübstoffe und Partikel nach unten in die Ölwanne 10 abgeleitet werden. Dort kann das Öl über einen Ablauf entnommen werden. Im Betrieb der Vorrichtung wird ein Teil des gepressten Öls zusammen mit Sediment, Partikeln und Trübstoffen über den Kratzförderer 11 mithilfe der Mitnehmer auf der Förderkette schräg nach oben bewegt, und zwar wieder zu der Übergabestation 15, wo das Material wiederum dem frischen Saatgut zugeführt wird und mit diesem über die Zuführungsspindel wiederum in den Kreislauf gelangt.The device works as follows:
The seed to be pressed, from which the oil is to be produced, is filled at the transfer station 15 and transferred to the screw conveyor 5, which is driven by its motor 14 for rotation about its axis of rotation 7 and the material under pressure side of the inlet region 6 of the press spindle. 4 supplies. There, the material within the press spindle 4 is further compressed and squeezed, as is known per se from the prior art, wherein the pressed-out oil, but also turbidity and particles are discharged down into the oil pan 10. There, the oil can be removed via a drain. In operation of the device, a portion of the pressed oil, together with sediment, particles and turbidity via the scraper conveyor 11 by means of the carriers on the conveyor chain moves obliquely upwards, and again to the transfer station 15, where the material is in turn fed to the fresh seed and with this via the feed spindle in turn gets into the circulation.

Zusätzlich kann frisches Material nicht nur über die Übergabestation 15 aufgegeben werden, sondern im Einlassbereich der Vorwärmschnecke vorgewärmt und im vorgewärmten Zustand dem Einlassbereich der Stopfschnecke 5 zugeführt werden.In addition, fresh material can not only be fed in via the transfer station 15, but preheated in the inlet region of the preheating screw and fed to the inlet region of the screw conveyor 5 in the preheated state.

Die Vorrichtung weist gegenüber den aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Vorrichtungen den Vorteil auf, dass der Einlauf seitlich neben der Pressspindel 4 angeordnet ist, sodass kein Zusetzen durch aufsteigende Feuchtigkeit stattfinden kann. Ferner weist die Anordnung den Vorteil eines mehrfachen Pressens und eines guten Ausfilterns des Öls von Partikeln und Trübstoffen auf, weil diese über den Kratzförderer einer erneuten Pressung zugeführt werden. Schließlich bietet die Vorrichtung den Vorteil einer Aufwärmung des Saatgutes vor der ersten Pressung über die Vorwärmspindel.The device has over the known from the prior art devices has the advantage that the inlet is arranged laterally next to the press spindle 4, so that no clogging can take place by rising moisture. Furthermore, the arrangement has the advantage of multiple pressing and a good filtering out of the oil of particles and turbidity because they are fed via the scraper conveyor to a new press. Finally, the device offers the advantage of heating the seed before the first pressing via the preheating spindle.

Schließlich ermöglicht die Vorrichtung eine bessere, gleichmäßigere und kontinuierlichere Beschickung der Pressspindel durch die Stopfschnecke und somit mehr Ertrag und Durchsatz pro Zeiteinheit.Finally, the device allows a better, more uniform and more continuous feed of the press spindle through the screw conveyor and thus more yield and throughput per unit time.
