Abstract

To dissolve a given volume of a solid detergent by stirring in a given volume of liquid, the solid detergent is passed to a vessel with an agitator and is weighed. It uses a closed screw conveyor for the transport to spread the detergent in the vessel but without being weighed. The set volume of liquid is passed into the vessel by a feed line which avoids the weighing unit. The weighed measure is less than a first level, and the product is delivered by the screw into the vessel until a second weight level is achieved, and the detergent delivery is stopped. The liquid is fed into the vessel until a third weight level is achieved, and the water feed is stopped. A system compares in real time the delivery of the detergent and/or the water for a given time span, and an alarm is generated if the real time breaches the nominal time. The screw conveyor unit is rotated at a speed of ≤ 30 rpm. An Independent claim is included for an apparatus with a vessel (1) mounted on to a weighing unit (2). The detergent is fed by a screw (3) in a closed cylinder (4), where its outlet is at the upper part of the vessel (1) without the conveyor being weighed (2). The detergent bag (5) is opened (7,8) towards the entry into the conveyor screw (3). Preferred Features: The conveyor screw (3) pitch is larger at the outlet than at the entry. The free edge of the conveyor screw (3) is notched. A feed line (14) opens into the vessel (1) without being weighed. The bottom of the detergent bag (5) has a shutter (7) which can be opened.

Description

La présente invention se rapporte aux procédés et dispositifs de dissolution d'un produit solide dans du liquide. Elle vise tout particulièrement la dissolution de produits à l'état finement divisé, en poudre ou en granulé, dont les dimensions sont comprises pour au moins 75 % en poids entre 0,1 et 1 mm et, tout spécialement, la dissolution de poudres détergentes hygroscopiques, comme on en utilise dans les installations de blanchisserie industrielle.The present invention relates to methods and devices for dissolution of a solid product in liquid. It specifically targets the dissolution of products in the finely divided state, in powder or granular form, whose dimensions are included for at least 75% by weight between 0.1 and 1 mm and, especially, the dissolution of detergent powders hygroscopic, as used in laundry facilities industrial.

L'invention propose un procédé de dissolution d'une quantité prescrite de produit détergent solide à l'état finement divisé, en l'agitant avec une quantité donnée de liquide, qui est très précis, qui s'automatise facilement et qui, surtout, est d'une très grande sécurité pour le personnel de la blanchisserie, en lui évitant de venir en contact avec le produit hygroscopique pulvérulent.The invention provides a method for dissolving a quantity solid detergent product in a finely divided state, shaking it with a given amount of liquid, which is very precise, which automates easily and which, above all, is very safe for the personnel of the laundry, avoiding it coming into contact with the product powdery hygroscopic.

Le procédé suivant l'invention est défini à la revendication 1.The method according to the invention is defined in claim 1.

L'utilisation d'une vis convoyeuse à fourreau fermé et d'une cuve montée sur un dispositif de pesage non seulement est précise et se préte à l'automatisation, mais surtout permet d'enfermer les poudres détergentes hygroscopiques à l'abri de l'air dans la vis en sorte que, d'une part, le personnel est protégé et que, malgré que les poudres soient sensibles à l'hygrométrie de l'air, il ne se produit pas un blocage dans la vis pouvant en provoquer la rupture, puisque l'action de l'air n'a lieu éventuellement qu'à la sortie de la vis.The use of a closed barrel conveyor screw and a tank mounted on a weighing device not only is precise and lends itself to automation, but above all allows to lock detergent powders hygroscopic sheltered from the air in the screw so that, on the one hand, the personnel is protected and that, although the powders are sensitive to air humidity, there is no blockage in the screw which can cause rupture, since the action of air possibly only takes place at the screw outlet.

La revendication 2 indique un procédé simple pour disposer en permanence d'une réserve de solution. Claim 2 indicates a simple method for disposing of permanence of a solution reserve.

La revendication 3 permet de surveiller simplement que le procédé se déroule normalement, tandis que la revendication 4 présente le très grand intérêt de prévenir tout échauffement des poudres détergentes hygroscopiques provoqué par une rotation trop rapide de la vis. De plus, cette rotation relativement lente donne une très bonne homogénéisation.Claim 3 allows to simply monitor that the process is proceeds normally, while claim 4 presents the very large advantage of preventing any heating of detergent powders hygroscopic caused by too rapid rotation of the screw. Moreover, this relatively slow rotation gives very good homogenization.

L'invention vise également un dispositif de dissolution d'un produit solide tel que défini à la revendication 5.The invention also relates to a device for dissolving a product. solid as defined in claim 5.

Pour mieux étaler la dose de produit dans la vis et prévenir ainsi encore mieux toute éventualité de bouchage et avoir un dosage plus précis, la vis convoyeuse a un pas plus grand du côté de l'extrémité de sortie que du côté de l'extrémité d'entrée. Il vaut mieux également, à cet effet, que le bord libre de la vis soit cranté.To better spread the dose of product in the screw and thus prevent even better any possibility of clogging and having a more precise dosage, the conveyor screw has a larger pitch on the outlet end side than the side of the inlet end. It is also better for this purpose than the edge free of the screw is notched.

Le dispositif comprend également un conduit débouchant dans la cuve et monté sans peser sur le dispositif de pesage. Ce conduit permet d'envoyer du liquide, notamment de l'eau, dans la cuve en une quantité donnée en ouvrant puis en fermant une vanne montée sur le conduit. Le dispositif peut comporter aussi un agitateur du contenu de la cuve.The device also includes a conduit opening into the tank and mounted without weighing on the weighing device. This conduit allows to send liquid, in particular water, into the tank in a quantity given by opening and then closing a valve mounted on the conduit. The device may also include an agitator of the contents of the tank.

De préférence, les moyens de maintien du sac comprennent un cylindre fermé, d'axe vertical, de réception de l'extrémité du sac contenant de la poudre détergente. Le diamètre du cylindre est supérieur au diamètre de l'extrémité du sac comportant l'ouverture quand le sac est fermé par un lacet, mais inférieur au diamètre de l'ouverture du sac quand, le lacet étant délacé, le sac est ouvert. On peut délacer le lacet en passant par l'ouverture ménagée par un volet susceptible d'être ouvert temporairement et prévu dans la face latérale du cylindre.Preferably, the bag holding means comprise a closed cylinder, vertical axis, receiving the end of the bag containing detergent powder. The diameter of the cylinder is greater than the diameter of the end of the bag comprising the opening when the bag is closed by a lace, but less than the diameter of the opening of the bag when, the lace being unlaced, the bag is open. You can unlace the lace through the opening provided by a shutter capable of being opened temporarily and provided for in the side face of the cylinder.

La figure unique du dessin annexé décrit un dispositif de dissolution suivant l'invention.The single figure of the accompanying drawing describes a dissolution device according to the invention.

Le dispositif comprend une cuve 1 de mélange, qui repose sur trois jauges 2 de contrainte disposées de manière répartie sur la périphérie du fond de la cuve 1 et formant dispositif de pesage, et une vis convoyeuse 3 sans fin, qui alimente la cuve 1 en poudre. La vis 3 à moteur M1 comporte un fourreau 4 cylindrique fermé. Le bord libre de la vis est cranté. Le pas de la vis 3 est plus grand du côté de la sortie que de l'entrée du produit en provenance d'un sac 5. The device comprises a mixing tank 1, which rests on three strain gauges 2 arranged in a distributed manner on the periphery of the bottom of tank 1 and forming weighing device, and a conveyor screw 3 endless, which feeds the tank 1 in powder. Screw 3 with M1 motor has a closed cylindrical sheath 4. The free edge of the screw is notched. The step of the screw 3 is larger on the outlet side than the product entry side from a bag 5.

Le sac 5 de poudre, suspendu à un palan 6, est disposé en ayant son ouverture tournée vers le bas dans un cylindre muni d'un volet 7 ouvrable. Le cylindre communique avec un entonnoir 8 dont le goulot 9 communique avec l'extrémité 10 d'entrée de la vis convoyeuse 3.The powder bag 5, suspended from a hoist 6, is arranged with its opening facing downwards in a cylinder fitted with a flap 7 which can be opened. The cylinder communicates with a funnel 8 whose neck 9 communicates with the inlet end 10 of the conveyor screw 3.

L'extrémité 11 de sortie de la vis débouche au sommet de la cuve 1 en regard d'une ouverture 12 ménagée dans la partie supérieure de la cuve, l'extrémité 11 n'étant pas en contact avec le bord de l'ouverture 12.The outlet end 11 of the screw opens at the top of the tank 1 in look of an opening 12 formed in the upper part of the tank, the end 11 not being in contact with the edge of the opening 12.

La vis convoyeuse 3 ne pèse pas sur la cuve 1.The conveyor screw 3 does not weigh on the tank 1.

Un conduit 14 d'alimentation en eau relie, par l'intermédiaire d'une vanne 15 de commande la cuve 1, sans cependant peser sur la cuve 1, et débouche dans le bas de la cuve 1.A water supply duct 14 connects, via a valve 15 for controlling the tank 1, without however weighing on the tank 1, and opens at the bottom of the tank 1.

Un conduit 16 met la cuve 1 en communication avec une cuve de dosage qui alimente un dispositif de lavage (non représenté) par l'intermédiaire d'une pompe P et d'une vanne 17. Le conduit 16 est disposé de manière à ne pas peser sur la cuve 1.A conduit 16 places the tank 1 in communication with a dosing which feeds a washing device (not shown) via a pump P and a valve 17. The duct 16 is arranged so as not to not weigh on the tank 1.

Un dispositif 19 de commande est relié, par l'intermédiaire de plusieurs conducteurs électriques, respectivement aux jauges 2 de contrainte, à la vanne 15, au moteur M1 d'entraínement destiné à entraíner la vis 3 convoyeuse, à la vanne 17, à la pompe P et à un moteur M2 d'un agitateur du contenu de la cuve 1.A control device 19 is connected, via several electrical conductors, respectively to the strain gauges 2, to the valve 15, to the drive motor M1 intended to drive the screw 3 conveyor, to valve 17, to pump P and to a motor M2 of an agitator of the contents of tank 1.

Ce dispositif 19 de commande commande l'ouverture ou la fermeture de la vanne 15, la mise en marche et l'arrêt du moteur M1 en fonction des signaux émis par le capteur de niveau et par les jauges 2 de contrainte et reçus par le dispositif 19 de commande.This control device 19 controls the opening or closing of valve 15, starting and stopping the motor M1 according to the signals emitted by the level sensor and by the strain gauges 2 and received by the control device 19.

Lorsque le signal fourni par les jauges 2 de contraintes au dispositif 19 de commande et qui représente le poids de la cuve indique que le poids de la cuve est devenu inférieur à une première valeur prescrite, le dispositif de commande 19 fait fonctionner le moteur M1 afin d'alimenter en poudre la cuve 1. Une fois que le poids de la cuve 1 a atteint une seconde valeur prescrite supérieure à la première valeur prescrite mentionnée précédemment, le dispositif de commande, informé par le signal émis par les jauges 2 de contraintes, arrête le moteur M1 et ouvre la vanne 15 jusqu'à atteindre une troisième valeur prescrite où il ferme la vanne 15.When the signal supplied by the strain gauges 2 to the device 19 which represents the weight of the tank indicates that the weight of the tank became below a first prescribed value, the control 19 operates the motor M1 to supply powder to the tank 1. Once the weight of tank 1 has reached a second prescribed value greater than the first prescribed value mentioned above, the control device, informed by the signal from the gauges 2 of constraints, stops the motor M1 and opens the valve 15 until reaching a third prescribed value where it closes valve 15.

Comme la vis 3 ne pèse pas sur la cuve 1, le signal de mesure du poids de la cuve 1 fourni par les jauges 2 de contrainte est bien plus fiable que dans les dispositifs de l'art antérieur et un dosage précis du mélange peut être obtenu par le dispositif 19 de commande. En outre, comme la vis convoyeuse est enfermée dans son fourreau, l'alimentation en poudre a lieu de manière bien uniforme et continue, sans que de l'air y pénètre. L'inertie de la vis entre le moment où le moteur M1 est arrêté par le dispositif de commande 19 et le moment où de la poudre cesse de tomber dans la cuve 1 est nettement plus faible que dans les dispositifs de l'art antérieur.As the screw 3 does not weigh on the tank 1, the weight measurement signal of the tank 1 provided by the strain gauges 2 is much more reliable than in prior art devices and an accurate dosage of the mixture can be obtained by the control device 19. In addition, like the conveyor screw is locked in its sheath, the powder feed takes place so well uniform and continuous, without air entering it. The inertia of the screw between the moment when the engine M1 is stopped by the control device 19 and the the moment the powder stops falling into the container 1 is much more weak than in the devices of the prior art.

Comme la face latérale extérieure de la zone d'ouverture du sac 5 vient s'appliquer, par le poids même de la poudre, étroitement sur la face latérale intérieure du cylindre muni du volet 7, de la poudre ne peut pas s'échapper à l'extérieur, polluer l'atelier et gêner le personnel, lequel n'est pas du tout en contact avec elle.As the outer side face of the bag opening area 5 comes apply, by the very weight of the powder, tightly to the side inside of the cylinder fitted with the flap 7, the powder cannot escape outside, pollute the workshop and annoy the staff, who are not at all contact with her.
