DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to an adsorption medium reactor with a plurality of removal hoppers for removal of flowable adsorption medium (bulk material) from the reactor whereby each removal hopper has at least one removal opening and whereby below the removal openings of a plurality of removal hoppers a common collecting funnel is arranged which for its emptying is provided with its own removal device.
In a device known from German Patent 40 00 204 of the aforementioned kind the bulk material is deposited on a horizontal intermediate storage floor below a plurality of removal openings. A pivotably suspended removal rake, suspended from a swinging parallelogram structure so as to pivot across the horizontal intermediate storage floor, engages the space below the removal openings and displaces the bulk material collected beneath the removal openings into a lateral removal opening. Accordingly, a relatively large amount of loaded adsorption medium particles are removed over extended operating time periods without requiring servicing. For reduced removal amounts, a limited operating time period, and less aggressive bulk material, the considerable advantages of the swinging removal rake remain partly unused so that the investment expenditure can be too high. This is especially true, for example, for adsorption medium reactors of small cremating devices which, in practice, are used only in single layer operation and require a comparatively minimal adsorption medium removal.
The invention therefore has as an object to provide an especially simple and inexpensively designed removal device which operates with a high degree of reliability, at least for less aggressive bulk material.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This object is solved with a device of the aforementioned kind according to the invention by: manner and by providing two parallel limiting edges; least one gate chamber which is delimited by a substantially cylindrical circumferential wall; inlet/outlet opening adapted to the cross-section of the removal opening; and cylindrical circumferential wall such that the inlet/outlet opening communicates in one rotational position with the removal opening and in at least one other rotary position allows for removal of the bulk material from the gate chamber by the force of gravity whereby in the latter position the hopper-removal opening is closed off by the circumferential wall of the rotary gate which acts as a closure body.
The adsorption medium reactor according to the present invention is primarily characterized by: the reactor; removal hoppers; common collecting funnel; and comprising two parallel-extending limiting edges; removal openings; circumferential wall; openings adapted to a cross-section of the corresponding removal opening; parallel to an axis of rotation of the rotary gate; circumferential wall is selected such that all of the inlet/outlet openings. arranged in a row communicate in one rotary position with the corresponding removal opening and in at least one other rotary position allow for emptying of the bulk material from the gate chamber under the force of gravity; and off by the circumferential wall forming a closure body.
The gate chamber comprises at least one radially extending disk for dividing the gate chamber into a plurality of cells arranged axially adjacent to one another.
Each one of the inlet/outlet openings arranged in a row has coordinated therewith one of the cells of the gate chamber.
The cylindrical circumferential wall comprises circumferentially extending stabilizing rings arranged with regular spacing at an inner side of the cylindrical circumferential wall.
The reactor may further comprise guide devices, fixedly connected to the removal hoppers, for dividing the removal openings, wherein the guide devices taper in an upward direction and guide the bulk material toward neighboring one of the inlet/outlet openings.
The removal hoppers are arranged adjacent to one another such that the rotary gates have parallel axes of rotation and are arranged in a co
