  • pressure vessels for crossflow filtration can be made from any suitable material that has the strength and stability to withstand the superatmospheric pressure which the pressure vessel will be designed to accommodate during a filtration or separation operation.
  • stainless steel and other corrosion- resistant alloys may be used to construct such a pressure vessel shell

  • a pressure vessel that is designed to accommodate six spiral wound cylindrical cartridges, each having an individual length of about 40 inches, might have a shell or casing with an overall length of about 260 inches, which would include bell-end portions at the respective ends that might each be about 10 inches in length.
  • 40-inch cartridges have been commonly constructed with 4-inch and 8-inch diameters; however, at the present time, there is interest in employing spiral wound, semipermeable membrane filtration cartridges having diameters of both 12 inches and 16 inches, which cartridge would very likely be about 40 inches in length, but might be even longer.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a pressure vessel 11 having a full bore opening suitable for crossflow filtration or separation.
  • the pressure vessel 11 is designed so it can be produced by conventional filament-winding about a mandrel, as generally described with respect to FIG. 2 in the '303 patent.
  • the vessel will have a central casing section 13 that has a cylindrical interior bore 15 of circular cross-section that is sized to be just slightly greater than the diameter of the cylindrical filtration cartridges that will be accommodated therewithin, e.g. 8 in. or 16 in.
  • Each end of the pressure vessel 11 is preferably formed as a bell end section 17 of greater interior and exterior diameter than the central casing section 13.
  • a suitable spacer is positioned on a mandrel which is shaped to provide an interior sidewall in the bell end of greater diameter and a short frustoconical transition section between the bell end and the central bore 15.
  • An annular insert 19 that is either shaped to define an interior groove 21, or which itself is formed with a central groove, is slidably located on the spacer. In the latter situation, the insert remains as an integral part of the pressure vessel 11, whereas it is removed in the former after removal of the spacer.
  • the pressure vessel is trimmed so that bell end section 17 has a flat end surface 22; its interior cylindrical entrance wall 23 of constant diameter extends from this flat end surface to a short, frustoconical, transition surface 25 that leads to the interior bore 15 of the pressure vessel.
  • the pressure vessel may be provided with two side ports by simply cutting two diametrically opposed circular passageways through the sidewall of the bell end section 17 in the region between the annular groove and the transition surface 25; two side port fittings 27 are then installed within such radial passageways, generally at each end of the vessel.
  • the fittings may have peripheral flanges 27a at their inward ends that are accommodated in the annular void region of the bell end section.
  • the diametrically opposed circular passageways in the bell end may be counterbored to receive the peripheral flanges of side port fittings.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates an end plug 31 that is used to effectively seal the upstream bell end of the pressure vessel 11.
  • the end plug 31 is circular in shape, having a peripheral surface 33 that is a section of a right circular cylindrical surface. Its diameter is such that it is slidably received in the bell end of the vessel, being just slightly less than the diameter of the entrance surface 23, which is of constant diameter extending to the transition section 25.
  • the plug's outer surface 33 has a recess wherein an annular seal 35 is carried.
  • An axial passageway extends centrally through the core portion of the end plug 31 which accommodates a narrow diameter section of a tubular connector 41, the inward end section of which serves as a female connector that accepts the permeate discharge conduit extending from a cylindrical filtration cartridge, as well known in this art and shown, e.g., in U.S. Patent No. 6,632,356.
  • a locking ring arrangement in the form of a segmented ring 43 is shown; it is received in the groove 21 provided in the metal ring insert 19 and secures the end plug 31 in its closed position in the bell end section 17, as well known in this art.
  • the groove to receive the locking ring segments could be formed in the FRP structure and could have a different cross-sectional shape if desired.
  • the removable end plug 31 may also instead be secured in place by a helical locking ring, e.g. as illustrated in U.S. Design Patent No. D468,392, or by a snap ring (e.g., U.S. Patent No. 5,866,001) or by some other suitable type of a locking arrangement used in this art.

  • the entrance interior surface 23 of the pressure vessel is of constant internal diameter (ID) all the way to the short transition surface 25, and the exterior surface of the bell end section 17 is generally constant in diameter except for being slightly larger in the region where the grooved ring insert 19 is located.
  • ID internal diameter
  • this constant ID design construction facilitates fabrication of pressure vessels by filament winding on a mandrel in a straightforward manner; moreover, it readily provides an annular void space of sufficient depth in the bell-end of the vessel (axially between the groove 21 and the transition surface 25) wherein a flange 27a at the inward end of a side port fitting 27 can reside. This can be of value to avoid the need to wind the bell-end sections to have a sidewall of increased wall thickness to permit the subsequent creation of interior counterbores in the radial passageways to accommodate flanges of side port fittings.
  • the present invention proposes to solve this problem by providing a cartridge-loading tool 51 that mates with pressure vessel 11 at its entrance end and provides a support structure or slide which greatly facilitates installing cylindrical cartridges.

  • the support structure 53 has a support ring segment 57 rigidly affixed to its outer surface which is aligned so as to be perpendicular to the center line of the arcuate surface 55.
  • the ring segment 57 preferably has a thickness, a shape and a size such that it will be snugly received within the circumferential groove 21 that is provided in the entrance surface 23 of the counterbore that receives the segmented locking ring 43; as a result, the seated support ring segment 57 provides stable support for the concave support structure 53 when the tool is disposed in the upstream entrance end section of the pressure vessel, where it extends past the side ports to the transition surface 25 that leads into the bore 13 of the pressure vessel, as seen in FIG. 4.
  • the illustrated arcuate segment 57 is slightly less than a semicircular segment, (e.g. about a 120° to a 170° segment and preferably about 140° to 150°), and it is interconnected at its ends with a complementary arcuate segment 61 of about the same size and shape. Interconnection of the two support ring segments is via a suitable mechanism that permits transformation of the combined support segments back and forth between a collapsed orientation and an expanded circular orientation. Illustrated are pairs of links 63 that are arranged as toggle mechanisms such that, when both pairs are moved radially outward over center while the support segments 57, 61 are received in the circumferential groove 21, such action locks the expanded support ring assembly tightly within the groove 21.
  • the support ring arrangement is also stable in its collapsed orientation because the arcuate segments 57 and 61 preferably have flat, facing end surfaces 65 which abut each other; this allows the movable upper arcuate segment 61 to rest on the lower fixed ring segment 57, forming a flattened circle.
  • the links 63 are preferably proportioned to have a radial dimension just less than one-half the radial dimension of the ring segments 57, 61, and about equal to the depth of the groove 21.
  • each pair of links 63 is displaced generally radially inward, reducing the effective diameter of the collapsed ring assembly such that it can be easily inserted axially through the entrance into the bell end section 17 of the vessel to the region of the groove 21.
  • the upper segment 61 is moved upward and away from it until the upper segment also seats in the groove 21.
  • First one toggle mechanism and then the other is manually moved over center to reach the expanded circular orientation, as shown in FIG. 3. The tolerances are such that over center movement of the latter toggle snaps it in place and secures the support ring assembly snugly within the circumferential groove 21.
  • the interior end portion of the support structure 53 extends to the transition section 25 where it leads directly to the internal bore 13 of the pressure vessel.
  • the arcuate plate-like support structure 53 is at least about a 120° arcuate sector of a cylinder; it commonly constitutes an arc between about 120° and about 170° to provide a desired smooth slide path for a cartridge into the bore 13.
  • the overall length of the support structure 53 is such that it extends rearward out of the end of the pressure vessel a distance sufficient to facilitate loading of at least the front end portion of a cylindrical filtration cartridge onto the arcuate surface 55 as depicted in FIG. 4, but preferably not so far as to create a potential obstacle.
  • a cylindrical cartridge is placed so that its leading end rests in the trough that is provided by the concave slide section of the loading tool as seen in FIG. 4. It can then be slid smoothly through the entrance end of the pressure vessel and all the way into the closely fitting interior bore 13 wherein it will be automatically joined in end-to-end relationship with other such cartridges already loaded.
  • the pair of toggle mechanisms 63 are manually moved over center, radially inward to unlatch the support ring assembly and collapse it.
  • the tool 51 is then manually raised to lift the lower arcuate segment 57 out of the circumferential groove 21 and withdrawn to allow the installation of the end closure.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 Illustrated from different perspectives in FIGS. 5 and 6 are two views of an alternative embodiment of a loading tool 71 that is motor-driven.
  • the loading tool 71 includes an annular support structure 73 that mates with the flat entrance or bell end of a pressure vessel 11.
  • a cartridge-loading cradle assembly 75 is supported from the annular support structure 73, and an arcuate slide plate 77 extends forward therefrom through the arcuate support structure and for the length of the bell end section 17 of the pressure vessel.
  • the annular support structure 73 functions as a hollow plug; it has the shape of a stepped ring with a flat, radially outer surface 79 that abuts the flat end surface 22 of the pressure vessel, and a short, radially inner, tubular extension 81 protrudes therefrom and is received snugly within the entrance to the counterbore of the pressure vessel, to assure proper alignment of the loading tool.
  • an optional clamping device 83 can be included, having a thumb screw mechanism or the like, that would allow it to be tightened so as to clamp the support structure 73 securely to the end of the pressure vessel 11.
  • shafts 85 that are positioned at 90° increments; they are journalled in the support structure and extend completely therethrough.
  • transverse fingers 87 at the ends of the shafts 85 extend radially therefrom and terminate at pointed ends. These fingers are shaped and oriented to cam against and engage the front wall of the locking ring groove 21 that is provided in the counterbore, e.g. in the metal insert 19.
  • Pivotal control arms 89 are attached to the opposite, outward ends of the shafts 85; after the annular support 73 is in position in the bell end section, these control arms are turned to rotate the shafts to align the fingers radially outward where they engage and cam against the near wall of the circumferential groove 21 at four equiangularly spaced points, i.e. 90° apart. If the rear wall of the groove 21 is not perpendicular to the pressure vessel centerline, the transverse fingers are similarly offset from perpendicular.
  • the arcuate slide plate 77 is aligned so its concave upper surface extends from the annular support 73 through the bell end section 17 in axial alignment with the interior surface of the interior bore 13 of the pressure vessel.
  • the length of the slide plate 77 is such that it extends to the transition section 25 of the pressure vessel bell end; thus, it provides a smooth pathway along which a cylindrical cartridge can be slid through the bell end of the pressure vessel and past the locking ring groove 21 and any flange 27a of a side port fitting, which is accommodated in the void region provided by the counterbore.
  • the thickness of the annular slide plate 77 is such that it would be juxtaposed upon or just above the surface of any side port fitting flange 27a that was included within the lower region of the pressure vessel, as depicted in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the cradle assembly 75 which extends axially outward from the support structure 73 includes three rods or tubes 91 that are supported at one end in the support structure 77 and at the opposite end in a plate portion 93 of a drive mechanism 95 schematically shown in FIGS. 5, 8 and 9.
  • the three rods 91 are parallel to one another and are placed at about 60° angular increments about the circular opening through the annular support 73; they are positioned so that their cylindrical surfaces are essentially tangent to the interior cylindrical surface of the annular support 73.
  • the three parallel rods 91 thus serve to cradle a cylindrical filtration cartridge 109 and support it in axial alignment with the aperture through the support structure 75.

  • the sheaves 99 are driven by a drive belt 101 so as to rotate in the same direction when powered by a motor (not shown).
  • a pusher plate 103 is slidingly supported on the three rods 91 so it can move axially therealong to push a cartridge 109 through the annular support structure 73 and into the bore of the pressure vessel.

  • the pusher plate 103 has a central cutout 107 which accommodates the spigot end of the permeate tube 111 that traditionally extends from one end of a cylindrical filtration cartridge 109, as seen in FIGS. 8 and 9; this tube 111 is received within the female coupling 41 associated with an end closure.
  • FIG. 8 shows the loading tool 71 latched in place at the entrance end to a pressure vessel 11 , with the side port fitting omitted simply for purposes of clarity.
  • a cylindrical filtration cartridge 109 has been loaded in the cradle portion of the tool, and it is shown as it is beginning to be slid into the annular support structure 73.
  • the pusher plate 103 abuts the end of the cylindrical cartridge 109, and the permeate discharge tube 111 extends through the cut out opening 107 provided in the plate. In this position, the cartridge 109 would have become axially interconnected with the permeate tube of the next cartridge 109a (FIG. 8) in the pressure vessel bore.
  • FIG. 9 is provided simply as a schematic representation as to better show the engagement between the loading tool 71 and the bell end section 17 of the pressure vessel.
  • the pressure vessel tubular body is omitted except for the metal ring insert 19 that provides the locking ring groove 21 in the bell end.
  • the four rotatable shafts 85 have their control arms 89 turned to radially outward orientations where the transverse fingers 87 are likewise aligned radially outward, in which orientation, they cam and seat against the near wall of the groove 21; thus, the four fingers hook into this groove and tightly support the loading tool 71 at four 90° spaced apart locations in the bell end section 17 of the pressure vessel.
  • This same orientation of shafts 85 is illustrated in the enlarged FIG. 7 view of the loading tool 71 where the tool is shown apart from the pressure vessel.
  • the length of the cradle portion 75 of the tool should be sufficient to accommodate at least one filtration cartridge 109, and should some manual interconnection between adjacent cartridges be desired, a slightly longer cradle may be preferred to afford such manual interconnection between a cartridge 109a previously slid some distance into the bell end section and the next cartridge 109 being loaded.
