Definitions
- the invention relates to an agitator mill according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such agitator mills have a grinding chamber containing grinding media, a stator and a rotor which are arranged in the grinding chamber, a grinding material inlet opening and a grinding material outlet opening for supplying and removing ground material into and from the grinding chamber, and one upstream in the grinding chamber from the outlet opening arranged grinding media separating device, which serves to separate grinding media carried in the grinding stock from the grinding stock before it is discharged through the outlet opening from the grinding chamber.
- Agitator mills are used in the food sector and in the production of fine particles down to the nano range. Particles or agglomerates emulsified in a liquid are conveyed into the grinding chamber and comminuted or dispersed in the grinding chamber with the aid of auxiliary grinding bodies before they are conveyed out of the grinding chamber. So that the grinding aids are not dragged out of the agitator mill by the liquid millbase during this wet grinding process and thus the agitator mill is lost and contaminate the millbase, the grinding aids are retained in the grinding chamber by a separating device. Separating gaps, separating screens or cellular wheels are used as separating devices. Beads made of steel, ceramic or plastic can be used as auxiliary grinding bodies.
- the grinding aids have to be replaced and the separating device cleaned or replaced after certain operating intervals.
- the separating device and the space surrounding it are not easily accessible to a maintenance person, which makes the removal and reinstallation of the separating device difficult.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of providing an agitator mill of the type described at the outset which enables good access to the separating device for its simple replacement without lowering the auxiliary grinding bodies and which furthermore enables the use of separating devices in which only in the "active" operating state the separation effect begins.
- the grinding chamber with the stator and rotor arranged in it and with the separating device can be pivoted into a pivoting position in such a way that the separating device comes to an elevated location which is higher than a large part of the grinding chamber volume, the separating device can be removed without draining the Grinding aid body enables, since the grinding aid body does not reach the height of the separating device in the pivoted position.
- the invention enables the use of a rotatable separating device with spoke-like or sheet-like elements, such as a spoke wheel, paddle wheel or cellular wheel, in an agitator mill, the separating action of the separating device only coming about when it starts to rotate.
- the separating device can be put into operation in this case as long as the process zone is tilted and the separating device is located at the elevated location. After commissioning, the process zone is then tilted into the operating position in which the auxiliary grinding bodies reach the separating device which now acts as a separator.
- the 'large part of the grinding chamber volume takes up between 50% and 100% of the mill chamber volume.
- the pivoted, high location of the separating device is expediently the highest possible location of the separating device that can be reached by pivoting. This facilitates access to the separation device.
- auxiliary grinding bodies which are located in or on the separating device, can be poured out or stripped into the grinding chamber without problems above the opening.
- the agitator mill according to the invention, it comprises an agitator unit which essentially consists of the grinding container forming the stator and the rotor forming the agitator, and a motor unit which essentially consists of the motor, the agitator unit , the motor unit and a belt overdrive together form a unit which can be pivoted about the pivot axis. In this way, the mass to be pivoted is kept as low as possible.
- the pivot axis preferably runs through the pivotable unit, it being particularly advantageous if the pivot axis runs through the center of gravity of the pivotable unit. In this way, the forces to be applied for the pivoting or! Torques kept low or practically completely eliminated.
- the axis of rotation of the agitator unit and the axis of rotation of the motor unit expediently run parallel to one another. It is particularly advantageous if the pivot axis both the axis of rotation of the agitator unit and the axis of rotation of the motor unit are preferably at right angles cuts. If “the ratio between the length and the diameter of both the agitator unit and the motor unit is less than 2 and preferably in the range of 1, this orientation of the pivot axis enables a relatively small moment of inertia of the pivotable unit with respect to the pivot axis achieve. This also facilitates the pivoting of the pivotable unit.
- the pivot axis can also run through the spatial area which extends between the axis of rotation of the agitator unit and the axis of rotation of the motor unit, preferably the axis of rotation of the agitator unit and the axis of rotation of the motor. Aggregate lie in the same spatial plane and the pivot axis is perpendicular to this spatial plane.
- This arrangement of the pivot axis is advantageous if the ratio between length and diameter is particularly large in the agitator unit and / or the motor unit, in particular if it is greater than 2 and preferably greater than 3, and at the same time the distance between the axis of rotation of the agitator unit and the axis of rotation of the motor unit is small.
- a relatively small moment of inertia of the pivotable unit with respect to the pivot axis is then also achieved for this spatial shape of the pivotable unit.
- the aim is to align the pivot axis with respect to the pivotable unit consisting of agitator unit and motor unit in such a way that the moment of inertia of the pivotable unit with respect to the pivot axis is as small as possible and preferably minimized.
- the separation device can e.g. a separating sieve, a paddle wheel or a separating gap.
- the separating sieve is preferably a self-cleaning separating sieve.
- the pivoting position is preferably a non-operating position of the agitator mill, the rotor axis of rotation in particular being essentially horizontal in the operating position of the agitator mill and vertical in the pivoting position or is arranged approximately vertically, for example at an angle of up to approximately 30 ° to the vertical.
- the rotor has essentially the shape of a rotationally symmetrical body and the stator is formed by an essentially complementary inner surface of the grinding chamber.
- the stator is formed by an essentially complementary inner surface of the grinding chamber.
- the regrind inlet opening is arranged in a radially outer region of the grinding chamber and the regrind outlet opening is arranged in a radially inner region of the grinding chamber.
- an equilibrium is then established on the auxiliary grinding bodies between a radially outwardly directed centrifugal force component due to the rotation of the rotor about its axis of rotation and a radially inwardly directed drag force component due to the ground material flowing radially from the outside inwards.
- the flow of the ground material is e.g. maintained by a separate pump.
- This centrifugal force effect achieves a "dynamic" relief of the separating device arranged radially on the inside in the regrind outlet area, i.e.
- auxiliary grinding bodies float more or less stationary in the radially outer areas of the process space and form a "swarm" of auxiliary grinding bodies through which the material to be ground is pumped.
- the few grinding media entering the radially inner area of the process space are then intercepted by the separating device. This protects the separating device and wears it down less.
- the rotor can essentially have the shape of a truncated cone, the grinding stock inlet opening being arranged in the region of the broad truncated cone end and the grinding stock outlet opening being arranged in the region of the narrow truncated cone end of the grinding chamber.
- the rotor can also have essentially the shape of a double truncated cone.
- the regrind is preferably pumped from the radially outside to the radially inside.
- the rotor can essentially have the shape of a cylinder, the regrind inlet opening being arranged in the region of the first cylinder end and the regrind outlet opening in the region of the second cylinder end of the grinding chamber, and the regrind being essentially helical along the cylinder jacket of the rotor the process room is transported.
- the rotor is essentially in the form of a disk, the regrind inlet opening being arranged in the radially outer peripheral region and the regrind outlet opening being arranged in the radially inner axial region of the grinding chamber, so that the regrind in turn from the outside flows inside through the process space.
- the above-described equilibrium of a centrifugal force component and a drag force component is established on the grinding auxiliary bodies during operation.
- the regrind pumped from the outside then brings about the "dynamic" relief of the separating device arranged radially on the inside.
- the rotor and the stator expediently have pins on their surface which intensify the grinding action of the auxiliary grinding bodies.
- the disk-shaped rotor has pins both on its two flat disk surfaces and on its peripheral surface.
- the radially outermost pins have the highest speed of all pins during operation.
- a large part of the auxiliary grinding bodies float radially outwards, a substantial part of the grinding action takes place in this peripheral area of the process space alone, so that a significant increase in grinding performance is achieved compared to an agitator mill without pins on the edge of the disc.

- the rotationally driven rotor 21 rotates in the grinding chamber 9.
- the ground material to be ground enters the grinding chamber 9 via a grinding material inlet opening 11 which is arranged radially on the outside of the grinding chamber 9 and leaves the grinding chamber 9 via a grinding material outlet opening which is arranged radially on the inside of the grinding chamber 12.

- the grinding media would have to be drained beforehand.
- the agitator mill according to the invention owing to its tiltability, enables the use of another separating device instead of the "passive" separating sieve, such as a cellular wheel or a paddle wheel, which can separate grinding auxiliary bodies only in the operating state, ie during rotation. If the agitator mill equipped with such an "active" separation device is to be stopped, it can be tilted into the vertical position with a vertical axis of rotation beforehand. The procedure is reversed when starting up again.
