Definitions

  • the invention relates to equipment for processing granular or powder material, provided with an improved valve and having the features stated in the preamble of the main claim.
  • the invention relates to equipment for use in procedures of moulding and extruding plastics materials.
  • finished or semi-finished plastics articles are manufactured by many different production processes, including injection moulding.
  • the plastics material to be processed is usually in the form of granules, also known as pellets, which are formed into finished or semi-finished articles by heating, casting and moulding, or extrusion.
  • the forming process includes a melting stage in which the plastics material, initially in granular form, is melted in a heating chamber, and a subsequent injection stage in which the material is injected into suitable moulds for moulding to the desired shape.
  • plastics materials used for moulding or extrusion are hygroscopic, and therefore easily absorb moisture, giving rise to serious problems, because water creates bubbles and voids in the liquefied plastics material during the forming process.
  • the granules must therefore be dried and dehumidified before being subjected to the desired forming process, and the moisture content of the material must also be kept low during its subsequent storage.
  • a dehumidifying stage is therefore provided upstream of the moulding or injection stage, to extract the moisture from the granules.
  • the granular material When the dehumidifying stage is carried out under vacuum, the granular material is first placed in a heating chamber where it is heated to a desired temperature, preferably between about 80 0 C and about 200 0 C, resulting in a moderate dehumidification of the material, depending on the external temperature and humidity.
  • the hot granular material is then supplied to a vacuum dehumidifier, in which it is subjected to a pressure below atmospheric pressure to extract the moisture from the material.
  • the dehumidification efficiency of this procedure is not dependent on the external conditions, but on the operating conditions, temperature and pressure in the dehumidifier.
  • the dehumidifier comprises a sealed container into which the granular material is loaded, this container being provided with walls, externally covered with insulating material to limit heat losses towards the outside and to keep the material at the desired temperature.
  • the dehumidifier is provided with an upstream valve for connection to the heating chamber and a downstream valve for connection to subsequent forming machines.
  • the valves can be actuated to set them to an open position, in which a passage is provided through the valve for the flow of the plastics material, and a closed position, in which the aforesaid passage is closed, thus preventing the flow of material through the valve and sealing the dehumidifier.
  • a drawback associated with the use of known dehumidifiers is that accumulations of material are frequently created at the valves, and particularly in the valve passages, thus impeding the correct operation of the valve.
  • the residues of material may partially obstruct the valve passages, thus preventing the optimal flow of the material entering and leaving the dehumidifier and consequently preventing the correct measured feed of the material.
  • the aforesaid residues may even prevent the correct closing of the valves and consequently prevent the sealing of the dehumidifier.
  • dehumidifiers Another drawback related to the use of known dehumidifiers, is the fact that they work properly only when operated in totally discontinuous manner (i.e. in batch), that is by loading the amount of material to be treated and, subsequently, discharging from the dehumidifier the whole content of treated material.
  • valves currently available in the market do not allow, in the normal operating conditions, proper opening/closing operation, intercepting the flowing material and assuring, at the same time, tightly sealing of the dehumidifier.
  • the discontinuous process of known vacuum dehumidifiers causes relevant disadvantages on downstream treatments, since dehumidified plastics material is subjected to significant temperature drops between the dehumidification and the subsequent treatment by press or extruder. Indeed, after a certain amount of plastics material has been dehumidified, a part of it is transferred to the subsequent treatment, while the remaining part must be stored, waiting for the subsequent treatment. During this waiting time, material is liable to cool down, so that in the subsequent treatment an additional energy amount is required to melt plastics material, or, as an alternative, during the waiting time plastics material must be heated so as to limit, or to avoid, cooling.
  • the process energy consumption is very high.
  • valve must be designed in such a way that the dehumidifier is tightly sealed in the expected temperature and pressure conditions.
  • One object of the invention is to provide equipment for processing granular or powder materials, provided with an improved valve which is reliable, requires little maintenance, and allows a good flow of material when open, while also being capable of tightly sealing the equipment. Another object is to provide a valve which makes it possible to avoid the formation of accumulations or residues of material in a passage area of the valve.
  • FIG. 2a is a schematic front view in partial section of a valve of the equipment of figure 1;
  • FIG. 2b is a side view of the valve of Figure 2a.
  • Figure 1 shows a portion of an installation 100 for forming plastics materials, positioned upstream of forming machines which are not shown.
  • Plastics material in granular or powder form is fed into a loading hopper 101 of the installation 100 as indicated by the arrow Fa, and then into a heating chamber 102.
  • This chamber is connected to a heating circuit 102a designed to introduce hot air into the heating chamber 102 in order to heat the plastics material to a desired temperature, usually comprised between approximately 80 0 C and approximately 200 0 C.
  • the final temperature is function of the plastics material which is treated in the installation 100.
  • the heating of the material causes the evaporation of a fraction of the moisture present in the material, this fraction depending on the existing external conditions of temperature and humidity.
  • the plastics material 102 is then fed from the heating chamber into a dehumidifier 103, in which it is subjected to a dehumidification process under a vacuum and at a high temperature, in such a way that the residual moisture is extracted from the plastics material.
  • the plastics material is then fed from the dehumidifier 103, as indicated by the arrow Fb, into forming machines which are not shown.
  • a first valve 1 and a second valve 1' are positioned, respectively, between the dehumidifier 103 and the heating chamber 102 and between the dehumidifier and the subsequent forming machines, these valves alternately allowing and preventing the flow of material into and from the dehumidifier 103.
  • the first and second valves 1 and 1' are also designed in such a way that, when they are open, the granular material passes through them to enter or leave the dehumidifier 103.
  • the dehumidifier 103 comprises a containing body 105 for collecting the plastics material which leaves the heating chamber 102 in order to be dehumidified.
  • the containing body 105 is delimited externally by a wall 106, preferably thermally insulated, which is connected by a pipe 107 to a vacuum pump 108 to create a desired pressure reduction in the containing body 105.
  • the vacuum pump 108 is usually made to work in such a way as to generate a relative pressure of about -980 mbar within the containing body 105.
  • first and second valves 1 and 1' are substantially identical, and therefore the following description, which relates to the first valve 1 with reference to Figures 2a and 2b, is applicable to both valves, and corresponding parts are indicated by the same reference numerals.
  • the first valve 1 comprises two connecting portions 2a and 2b to connect the valve 1, respectively, to the heating chamber 102 and to the dehumidifier 103, a valve body 3, and a first and a second mouth 4 and 5, interposed between the valve body 3 and the two connecting portions 2a and 2b respectively.
  • the first and second mouths 4 and 5 are shaped in such a way as to act, respectively, as an inlet and an outlet for the material passing through the valve body 3, and have a smaller aperture than that of the valve body 3, preferably with a nominal diameter of about 70 mm.
  • the valve body 3 comprises a central cylindrical portion 30 and opposing linking portions 31 and 31a interposed between the cylindrical portions and the first and second mouths 4 and 5 respectively.
  • the linking portions 31 and 31a are provided with inner walls inclined in such a way that they diverge from the first and second mouth 4 and 5 respectively towards the cylindrical portion 30 of the valve body 3, thus facilitating the flow of material through the valve body 3 and the emptying of the latter.
  • the granular material leaving the valve body 3 is progressively directed towards the second mouth 5 by the presence and shape of the second linking portion 31a, so that local accumulations of granular material within the valve body 3 are prevented in this case also.
  • a closing device 6 comprising a shell 7 extending along a longitudinal axis Z of the valve 1, in other words, in the illustrated version, in the direction in which the plastics material passes through the valve body 3.
  • the shell 7 is positioned in such a way as to prevent the formation in the valve body 3 of passage areas having a particularly constricted cross section by comparison with other areas, in order to avoid local obstructions and make the passage of the material through the valve body 3 as uniform as possible.
  • the shell 7 is shaped internally to form a first and second cavity 8 and 8a, which are positioned in sequence along the longitudinal axis Z and are shaped symmetrically with respect to this longitudinal axis Z.
  • the first and second cavities 8 and 8a are positioned so that they partially house a first and a second plug device 10 and 10a for opening and/or closing the first and second mouths 4 and 5 respectively, to allow and/or prevent the passage of material through them.
  • the shell and/or the first and second cavities can be shaped differently from those shown, according to the direction in which the granular material passes through the valve and the positions of the first and second mouths in the valve with respect to each other.
  • Each cavity houses a corresponding plug device positioned to interact with one of the mouths with which the valve is provided.
  • the first and second plug device 10 and 10a are structurally identical, and the following description is therefore limited to one of them.
  • the first cavity 8 is formed by a lateral wall 11, a base wall 12 positioned nearer the first mouth 4, and an opposing end wall 13.
  • the first plug device 10 comprises a rod 14 carrying at its opposite ends a piston 15 which is slidable in a sealed way inside the first cavity 8, and a plug element 16 shaped to interact with inner walls of the first mouth 4 in order to open and/or close it.

  • Each plug device 10, 10a is movable along the longitudinal axis Z in both directions shown by the arrow F between an open position X, shown in Figures 2a and 2b with reference to the second plug device 10a, and a closed position Y shown in Figures 2a and 2b with reference to the first plug device 10, and in the opposite direction.
  • the first valve 1 is connected for operation to a movement system which is designed to move the first plug device 10 between the closed position X and the open position Y and vice versa.
  • the movement system comprises a source of compressed air, not shown in the drawings, which can supply air at a certain pressure, a pneumatic circuit 17 for guiding the generated compressed air towards the first valve 1 and the second valve 1', and a selection device, not shown in the drawings, designed to select the specific pipe or pipes of the pneumatic circuit 17 through which the compressed air is to flow.

  • a single pneumatic circuit can be provided to guide the generated compressed air to both valves, or a dedicated pneumatic circuit can be provided for each valve, regardless of whether a single source or two separate sources of compressed air are provided.
  • first and second valves 1 and 1' can be actuated separately.
  • the pneumatic circuit 17 comprises an opening pipe 18 which opens through a hole in the lateral wall 11 of the first cavity 8 near the base wall 12, a closing pipe 19 which opens through another hole in the lateral wall 11 of the first cavity 8 near the end wall 13, as well as a second opening pipe 18a and a second closing pipe 19a which open through corresponding holes of the second cavity 8a.
