Title: Improvements in and relating to grain-shredding and disintegrating machines
IPC: B02C9/02
Filed: 1961-10-02
Abstract: 977,636. Shredding and disintegrating machines. G. EIBEN, T. HALMI, and J. THEIBSZ. Oct. 2, 1961 [Oct. 5, 1960], No. 35533/61. Heading B2A. In a grain shredding and disintegrating machine having celled grain pick-up means and slicing knives co-operable therewith to slice grains therein, the cells of the pick-up means communicate through bottom passages therein with a chamber to which vacuum can be applied to hold the grains in the cells. As shown in Fig. 1, a rotary feed drum 4 receives grains from a hopper 19 and supplies them to a rotary drum 1 which comprises spaced annular discs 3 having cells 32 which communicate through passages 29 to chambers 2 connected to a common suction pipe. The grains are evenly distributed in the cells by means of a rotary brush 5. The grains held in the cells are sliced by means of circular knives 30 mounted groupwise in magazines 7 each supported by an arm 9 which strikes against a cushion 10 under adjustable pneumatic pressure. The knives are associated with scraper means 8 and with scraper means comprising rings mounted on spacers between the knives. Shredded grains jammed between the knives are ejected by the scraper means and received in a shoot 14. After the drum 1 passes the knives, the suction effect is interrupted and the sliced grains pass into a shoot 15. A stone collector 47 leads to a shoot 31. Sliced and shredded grains from the shoots 14, 15 pass into a disintegrator 16 which comprises hurling wheels 38, Fig. 6, co-operable with crusher plates 41 mounted on a ring 42 so as to be axially and angularly adjustable. Each wheel 38 has radial channels 45, Fig. 7, each having a cross-section formed by a pair of curved sections 46, Fig. 8, which act to sort the grains. Air is supplied axially to the wheels 38 and disintegrated grains pass through outlets 17, 18. In a modification, Fig. 9, the grain pick-up cells are provided on the surface of a belt 51 above which is a vibratory plate 53 which together with brush 5 serves for evenly distributing the grains in the cells. The knives 30 are flanked by sharpening rollers 56, the knives and rollers being mounted on an angularly displaceable arm 57. A nozzle 58 removes sliced grain particles from between the knives.

An extensible and contractible flexible hose 1 of plastics material, e.g. a blend of polypropylene and polyisobutylene, has a member inwardly facing annular folds 2 connected with each other at the inner peripheral edges 6 thereof each of the folds consisting of two annular walls 3, 4 connected with each other at the outer peripheral edges 5 thereof, one of the walls being longer than the other in a section taken along a plane including the axis of the hose. When the hose is collapsed from a stretched condition the shorter walls 4 are lapped by the longer walls 3 so that the folds are self-retained in a contracted condition as shown in Fig. 4; conversely when the hose is stretched from a contracted condition the shorter walls 4 are deflected to move away from the longer walls 3 so that the folds are self-retained in the position shown in Fig. 2. The angle α between the walls when the hose is in a stretched condition is in the range from 45 to 65 degrees, and the ratio of the lengths l 3 , l 4  is in the range 1À02: 1 to 1À1: 1.

A device for conveying elongated bodies 24 and arranging them in an orderly array comprises an endless belt 2, a container 21 having a discharge outlet 23 overlying a portion of the belt, a plurality of shaped housings or slots 25 provided on the belt for accommodating the end adjacent the barycentre of the bodies 24, there being fluid between the discharge outlet 23 and the belt portion beneath, means for imparting a movement to the fluid, at least one suction inlet 19 for the fluid located at a limited area below the belt 2, the belt being crossable by the fluid at least at the shaped housings or slots, at least one guide 20 extending parallel to the belt which is suitable for retaining and guiding the bodies 24 on the shaped housings or slots adjacent the limited area of the belt. The barycentre of the bodies 24 is adjacent one end, and as described, the bodies are drawing tubes applied in valves for aerosol containers. Liquid is fed from a pump 14 to an inlet 16. The suction side of the pump 14 is connected to the underside of the belt 2 at 19, and to ports 17 in respective side-plates 13 on either side of the belt. As the tubes 24 are vibrated out from the container 21, their weight and the friction acting on them by the liquid, causes them to land head downmost on a vibrating guide 7. The liquid from port 16 causes the tubes to move along the guide and drop on to the belt. The liquid suction acting through apertures in recesses 25 of the belt, causes the tubes to be drawn into respective recesses 25. The tubes are then entered to guide slots of the guide 20 and are thereby delivered to a feed guide at 26. In a modification (Fig. 3, not shown), pneumatic pressure is used to stabilize the tubes and retain them on the belt 2.
