Description

The present invention belongs to the technical field of dust collectors that collect highly ignitable dust and chips generated when machining materials such as titanium, magnesium, and aluminum, and specifically, The present invention relates to an explosion-proof filter for a dust collector and an explosion-proof dust collector that are devised so as to eliminate the risk of dust explosion caused by dust and chips.

Regarding the explosion-proof dust collector and the filter, there are already “a dust collector having a fire countermeasure function” disclosed in Patent Document 1 disclosed by the present applicant and “a dust collector” described in Patent Document 2. .

  In Patent Document 1, the thermal particles having a large mass and high thermal energy, which have been centrifuged by the pre-dust separator, are absorbed by heat treatment before being recovered in the dust bucket, and the high thermal energy is lost and discharged to the dust bucket as low energy particles. Thus, a dust collector equipped with a fire countermeasure function devised to prevent ignition is disclosed.

In Patent Document 2, coarse particles that generate large thermal energy that accompanies an explosion when ignited are collected by a mesh filter, quickly dropped by backwashing with air, and discharged to the outside. A certain amount of fine dust is reduced to an amount that does not ignite by reducing the amount attached to the filter as much as possible, and inert gas is used everywhere to prevent ignition even if sparks due to static electricity occur. A technique for reducing the risk of inducing a dust explosion is disclosed.

However, when an easily ignited material is processed and the chips are collected, dust explosion may occur. However, the mechanism of the explosion is to reduce the filter pressure loss. The dust cloud will float in the dust collection chamber due to the removal of dust, and fine dust particles will be ignited in the dust collection chamber due to some kind of trigger (static electricity or fire type during welding work, etc.), and the heat will be mixed in the dust collection chamber It is thought that other fine dust particles are heated and ignited, and the explosion is attracted by successive propagation of the ignition.

However, in the dust collector described in Patent Document 1 , since fine dust is collected by a dust removal method such as air injection, the fine dust floats in the dust collection chamber and becomes a dust cloud, which increases the possibility of ignition. There is a problem. Therefore, in the above-mentioned Patent Document 2, the fine dust collecting filter has a structure in which dust is attached to the outside without backwashing, but in this structure, the frequency of filter replacement is high. Therefore, there is a problem that the operation stop due to the replacement work is frequently performed, and a process of separately cleaning the accumulated dust is necessary for replacement or reuse of the filter itself, and the running cost of the dust collection operation increases.

So technical object of the present invention is, for the fine dust of the dust cloud state generated by flicked in the dust collection chamber, even if the ignition source that creates the cause of the explosion is ignited, heating and ignition of it around devised without causing propagation, devised so as not to reach the dust explosion, in addition flicked deposition dust to avoid an increase in pressure loss due to deposition of dust (the backwash operation), safely realized it as An explosion-proof filter for a dust collector and an explosion-proof dust collector are provided.

And a porous body having a three-dimensional pore part whose skeleton is continuous in three dimensions and having an outer peripheral surface on the suction side of the filter medium whose inner peripheral surface is the filter medium. It is constructed in an explosion-proof type so as to be in contact with it, and dust-containing air is introduced from the upper surface opening of the filter medium by the suction force of the blower, and is circulated from the inside to the outside of the filter medium. The dust It is characterized by being configured so as to collect on the inside of the filter medium.

(4) Further, the explosion-proof dust collector according to claim 4 of the present invention is arranged with a plurality of explosion-proof filters formed by arranging the porous body inside the filter medium side by side in a standing state in the dust collection chamber. On the upper surface side of these multiple explosion-proof filters, a movable lid that can be selectively closed while rotating the upper surface opening of each explosion-proof filter is provided so that the explosion-proof filter can be closed from the outside to the inside.

As described above, according to the explosion-proof filter for dust collector and the explosion-proof dust collector according to the present invention, highly ignitable dust and chips generated when machining a material such as titanium, magnesium, or aluminum are used. When collecting dust, the risk of dust explosion caused by these dusts and chips can be surely eliminated, and the filter pressure loss is reduced by the removal operation (back washing operation) during continuous dust collection operation.

These embodiments are preferred specific examples of the present invention, and may have various technically preferable limitations, but the technical scope of the present invention does not particularly limit the present invention. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

  In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 generally indicates an explosion-proof filter for a dust collector according to the present invention. The explosion-proof filter 1 includes a filter medium 2 formed in a cylindrical shape, and an opening of the filter medium 2. The upper and lower flanges 3A and 3B that are attached to the upper and lower ends are formed in an open state, the metal flange-like reinforcing body 4 that suppresses the buckling and swelling of the filter medium 2, and the filter medium 2 The round holes of the upper and lower flange bodies 3A and 3B, which are constituted by a plurality of cylindrical metal porous bodies 5 accommodated in a plurality of stages and are widely opened, serve as the upper surface opening 2X and the bottom surface opening 2Y of the explosion-proof filter 1. It is composed.

  Specifically, the filter medium 2 is obtained by cutting a filter medium formed of a metal or ceramic having high heat resistance into a woven cloth shape into a rectangular shape and winding it into a cylindrical shape and joining them up and down. The attached flange bodies 3A and 3B are configured to maintain this cylindrical shape.

  FIG. 2 shows a cross-sectional view of the explosion-proof filter 1, and the porous metal body 5 is tightly accommodated inside the filter medium 2 as shown in the figure, with the inner surface of the filter medium 2 in contact with the peripheral surface. The upper and lower flange bodies 3A and 3B are configured so as to suppress the metal porous bodies 5 and the metal porous bodies 5 and the filter medium 2 in close contact with each other.

  FIG. 3 is an enlarged view showing a part of the porous metal body 5 used in the explosion-proof filter 1 according to the present invention. As shown in the figure, the porous metal body 5 has an infinite number of pores 5A of about 3 mm. In other words, it has a high porosity, that is, specific surface area (ratio of surface area to volume). It is used, and can be easily obtained even by custom manufacturing with a desired pore shape, porosity, external shape, material, and the like.

  FIG. 4 is an explanatory view showing an example of the porous metal body 5 used in the explosion-proof filter 1 according to the present invention, which explains the relation between a part of the manufacturing method and the structure, and in the embodiment of the present invention. In the manufacturing process, the metal porous body 5 to be used is filled with resin beads having a corresponding diameter in order to obtain desired pores, molded into a metal, and after forming a composite of metal and resin beads, only the resin beads are formed. It assumes a manufacturing method such as melting and removing. Ideally, the spherical shape of the resin beads before removal is aligned as shown in FIG. 4 and the space is filled with metal only, and an infinite number of three-dimensional spaces are formed inside. In actuality, however, the porous metal body has a moderately complicated three-dimensional space as shown in FIG. 3 due to variations in the diameter of the resin beads filled in the inside and deformation upon close contact. In recent years, such a member can be easily manufactured from various materials.

  Since the porous metal body 5 has such a structure, it can be deformed or compressed with a relatively small force from the outside, and the inside of the filter medium 2 as shown in FIGS. And it is easy to make metal porous body 5 ... adhere closely. In addition, the metal porous body 5 obtained by a manufacturing method other than the above, the one obtained by condensing a metallic non-woven fabric, the one wrapped with a wire net-like one, or the one like a metal scourer called steel wool is also included in the present invention. The filter medium 2 can be manufactured in one piece, not in multiple stages, and can be manufactured as a single unit. The porous body having a three-dimensional pore formed by using a solid substance higher than air and having a three-dimensional continuous skeleton is not limited to the above-described manufacturing method and size.

  FIG. 5 shows a configuration diagram of an explosion-proof dust collector according to the present invention generally indicated by reference numeral 10, and the explosion-proof dust collector 10 includes a dust collection unit indicated by reference numeral 11, a blower 20 including a blower motor 20M, They are composed of ducts 22 that communicate with each other and the outside, and an exhaust duct 21 for the blower 20.

  As seen in the exploded perspective views of FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, the dust collection unit 11 has a cylindrical outer cylinder 12 in which the intake passage 12A communicates from the external tangential direction, and an internal dust collection chamber. 12K, and the inner cylinder 13 having a bottom plate 13R which is concentrically fitted to the outer cylinder 12 and partially communicates with the exhaust passage 13A to the blower 20. On the upper surface portion, an upper cover 14 having a plurality of openings 14A and a disk 15 as a movable lid, which will be described later, are arranged in a state of overlapping vertically.

  In addition, in the inside 13K of the inner cylindrical body 13, the plurality of explosion-proof filters 1 in a state where the upper surface openings 2X are in communication with the plurality of openings 14A in the upper cover 14, respectively. A filter cover 16 is formed on the outer periphery of each of the explosion-proof filters 1... With a height slightly lower than that of the filter 1 and provided with a taper 16T for air intake at the upper end opening. They are arranged at intervals.

  Further, a dust bucket 17 for dust collection is detachably mounted on the lower side of the outer cylinder 12 and the inner cylinder 13 as shown in FIG. 5, and the plurality of explosion-proof filters 1. The bottom opening 2Y at each lower end communicates with the dust bucket 17 through a plurality of vent holes 13H opened in the bottom plate 13R of the inner cylinder 13 respectively.

  The upper surface of the outer cylinder 12 is covered with an upper lid 18, and a disk motor 15 M is attached to the upper side of the upper cylinder 18, and the lower end portion of the drive shaft 15 S through which the disk 15 penetrates the upper lid 18. In addition, a compressed air purge header 19 is also arranged, and the compressor 19 communicating with the header 19 is omitted in the drawing. The air hose is connected to the air compressor.

  Although the details will be described later, the explosion-proof dust collector according to the present invention basically sucks dust-containing air from the intake passage 12A on the outer periphery provided in the outer cylinder 12 by the suction action of the blower 20 described above. Since the dust-containing air enters the interval SP (see FIGS. 7 and 8) between the outer cylindrical body 12 and the inner cylindrical body 13 and rotates and rises along the inner wall of the outer cylindrical body 12, this interval SP is a cyclone type. A primary dust collection chamber 12W is formed, and in this primary dust collection chamber 12W, relatively coarse dust BD is collected by falling into the dust bucket 17 by its own weight while rotating along the inner wall of the outer cylindrical body 12 by centrifugal force. Is done. On the other hand, the relatively fine dust SD passes from the opening 14A of the upper cover 14 provided on the upper surface of the outer cylinder 12 to the secondary dust collection chamber inside the inner cylinder 13, that is, the interior of each explosion-proof filter 1. And is collected on the inner wall of the filter medium 2, and clean air that does not contain fine dust is sucked into the blower 20 from the exhaust passage 13 </ b> A of the inner cylinder 13 and passes through the exhaust duct 21 to the outside of the dust collector 10. The system is exhausted.

  FIG. 6 is an exploded view showing a part that performs the primary dust collection and secondary dust collection operations described above as the dust collection unit 11 in particular, and is not shown in FIG. As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, in each of the openings 14 </ b> A, fitting recesses 14 </ b> S surrounding the opening 14 </ b> A are formed upward, and these fitting recesses 14 </ b> S are circular. The blow tube 30 ... which injects the compressed air for dust removal formed in the shape is inserted.

  Each of the blow tubes 30 is branched from the compressed air purge header 19 shown in FIGS. 5, 7, and 8 and communicates via individual valve devices. Further, a disk 15 as the movable lid is disposed between the blow tubes 30 and the explosion-proof filters 1. The circular plate 15 is provided with round holes 15A having the same diameter as the upper surface ports 2X of the filters 1 in a total of three positions, and only one position is a blocking portion 15S having the same diameter as the upper surface port 2X. It is possible to blow the dust-decompressed compressed air sprayed from the blow tube 30 around the closed portion 15S between the explosion-proof filter 1 and the tapered portion 16T at the upper end of the filter cover 16. Opening portions 15X are provided.

  The plurality of explosion-proof filters 1 are accommodated coaxially with the vent holes 13H provided in the bottom plate 13R of the inner cylinder 13, and the above-described filter covers 16 are disposed on the outer periphery thereof.

  FIG. 7 is a detailed view of the main part of the explosion-proof dust collector according to the present invention. The operation during normal dust collection operation will be described. Dust-containing air passes through the dust collection unit 11 through the path shown by the thick line in the figure. As described with reference to FIG. 5, first, dust-containing air is sucked from the intake passage 12 </ b> A on the outer periphery of the outer cylinder 12, and the dust-containing air rotates and rises along the inner wall of the outer cylinder 12. In this primary dust collecting chamber 12W, relatively coarse dust BD (large dust particles) falls along with the inner wall of the outer cylindrical body 12 by centrifugal force and falls into the dust bucket 17 by its own weight. It is collected. Relatively fine dust SD (small dust particles) is collected in the secondary dust collection chamber inside the inner cylinder 13, that is, the explosion-proof filter 1 from each opening 14 </ b> A provided in the upper cover 14 at the upper part of the outer cylinder 12. , And is sucked through the inside of the porous metal body 5 inside each explosion-proof filter 1, so that it is collected on the inner wall of the filter medium 2, and clean air not containing fine dust is contained inside. The air is drawn into the blower 20 through the exhaust passage 13A of the cylinder 13 and exhausted to the outside of the dust collector 10.

  At this time, the disc 15 is stopped in a state where the opening 15A is coaxially connected to the upper opening 2X of the explosion-proof filter 1 and the opening 14A of the upper cover 14, and the disc motor 15M is also stopped. However, a position sensor or switch for accurately determining this position is separately provided, and the disk motor 15M is accurately stopped from driving by the input, or a pulsed air jet from the blow tube 30 is detected. A control unit that determines the timing is mounted inside the dust collector 10 (not shown).

  While normal dust collection operation is continued in this state, when the dust particles SD collected on the inner wall side of the filter medium 2 gradually accumulate and clog the explosion-proof filter 1, suction of the blower 20 is performed. The efficiency of the action deteriorates. For this reason, this type of filter type dust collector applies a mechanical vibration to the filter, or pulse air is applied to the filter to remove the accumulated small dust particles. It is a common practice to do this occasionally.

  If the small dust particles that have been wiped off during the removal (backwashing) operation fill the primary dust collection chamber 12W or the inside 13K of the inner cylinder 13 as a "dust cloud", the fire will be generated by the dust cloud for some reason. By igniting, the dust particles in the dust cloud are heated and ignited one after another, and there is a risk of causing a dust explosion.

  Therefore, the improvement effect of the present invention will be described with reference to a detailed view of the main part shown in FIG. 8. First, before the operation of back-off (backwashing), the upper surface 2X of the explosion-proof filter 1 that performs the back-off is closed. When the disk 15 as a movable lid is rotated by the plate motor 15M and stopped at the position where the closing portion 15S accurately closes the filter upper surface port 2X, the outlet of the blow tube 30 is exactly the explosion-proof filter 1. In an open state so that pulsed air can be ejected toward the inner periphery of the filter cover 16. In this state, as shown in FIG. 8, pulsed air is ejected and a sudden pressure is applied in a pulsed manner from the outside to the inside of the explosion-proof filter 1, thereby collecting small dust collected and accumulated on the inner wall of the filter medium 2. The particles SD are washed off from the inner wall of the filter medium 2 and float in the pores 5A inside the porous metal body 5 in a dust cloud state.

  If ignition and explosion do not occur in the small dust particles SD suspended in the pores 5A inside the metal porous body 5, the dust particles gradually settle by their own weight or accumulate in the pores 5A inside the metal porous body 5. However, since the pressure and vibration caused by wiping off (back washing) also acts on the dust accumulated in the pores 5A inside the porous metal body 5, the density of the floating dust gradually becomes dense. Then, it settles below the metal porous body 5 and finally falls to the dust bucket 17 below it.

  Accordingly, in the pore portion 5A inside the metal porous body 5 inside the filter, the dust that floats and accumulates becomes larger and denser as it goes down, and if it falls to the dust bucket 17, it becomes already a dust cloud. In this state, relatively small dust particles harden and their own weight increases and falls, and at this time, there is little risk of dust explosion even if ignited.

  In a dust cloud-shaped dust collection chamber, dust explosions ignite and burn when individual dust particles ignite when there is a space between individual dust particles and the surroundings of each dust are filled with oxygen ( (Oxidation) Even if there is enough oxygen to burn the dust particles around the surrounding dust particles, the ignition / heating / ignition chain propagates. In terms of concentration, one dust particle ignites and burns, so the surrounding oxygen is consumed and not propagated. Conversely, if the dust concentration does not reach a certain level, the distance between the dust particles is too large and the heating action It is also known that it does not propagate because it does not reach the surrounding particles.

  Therefore, the applicant of the present invention pays attention to the fact that dust explosion does not result in dust explosion if measures are taken to prevent heating even under dust concentration conditions where dust clouds are generated and there is a risk of dust explosion. Has been invented in a heat sink, and a means for realizing this has been found. That is, as illustrated in the explanatory diagram of the dust explosion suppressing effect of the explosion-proof dust collecting filter according to the present invention shown in FIG. 9, the dust particles ignited by some cracks in FIG. As it occurs in the part 5A, the heating action decreases as the distance from the ignited dust particles increases, but if there is not a certain amount of space as described above, the oxygen to burn is insufficient. The possibility of ignition propagation due to heating by ignition is limited to particles in the vicinity of a two-dot chain line circle in FIG. 9A (which is actually a space but will be described in two dimensions as a model).

  In FIG. 9 (1), the two particles are heated and ignited, and the two particles are ignited. Next, as shown in FIG. Since the porous metal body 5 that acts as a heat sink absorbs heat, the propagation from subsequent heating to ignition is interrupted. As a result, even if dust is ignited for some reason, the outside of the pore portion 5A (metal porous body space) of the porous metal body 5 indicated by the one-dot chain line in FIG. The applicant of the present invention has confirmed through experiments that a phenomenon occurs in which no propagation occurs and no dust explosion occurs.

  In FIG. 9, the black rhombus portions indicate the skeleton of the porous metal body 5, and the skeletons are actually three-dimensionally connected and have a very large surface area and a large heat capacity. In addition, although the material is metal, in order to exert the effect in such a shape, an inorganic compound such as ceramic may be used besides the metal, and the thermal conductivity of the material has never exceeded, Theoretically, if the substance has a higher thermal conductivity than air, the heat by ignition flows toward the skeleton of the porous body and absorbs heat, resulting in a heat sink effect.

  Further, in the embodiment in which the size of the pore portion 5A shown in FIG. It has been confirmed that dust explosion can be prevented by dust and dust accumulation can be removed by backwashing with compressed air. The nature of the dust collected, the surrounding environment, and the dust collection capacity in the primary dust collection chamber The pore size and the thermal conductivity of the material composing the metal porous body may be selected and configured while appropriately conducting experiments and the like, and a safe explosion-proof dust collecting filter 1 to which the embodiment of the present invention is applied. In addition, the dust collector 10 can be realized at low cost.

  In addition, the cylindrical filter shown in the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to a flat plate filter and the metal porous body 5 to have a multilayer structure on a plane, and the backwash timing is collected in a plurality of cylindrical filters. Even during dust operation, it is possible to seal off only one place with a disc lid and perform operation (backwashing), which enables continuous dust collection work for a long time. There is no need to collect and discard the secondary filter on which fine dust is accumulated as in the case of the other invention examples, and it is useful for reducing running costs.

  Furthermore, it is possible to combine the technology such as the heat absorption function of Patent Document 1 for preventing re-ignition of the dust collected in the dust bucket 17 or to immediately press and solidify the dust falling from the filter 1 to enhance safety. Yes, it is possible to further improve safety by combining the primary dust collection bucket and the secondary dust collection bucket to prevent the inflow of fire from the primary side to the secondary side. It is.
