FIELD: mechanical mixtures movement and processing.
SUBSTANCE: invention is intended for movement and processing of mechanical mixtures. The method for moving and processing mechanical mixtures using vortex separation with a filter of suction equipment using the vortex effect of the confuser is that the mechanical mixture is tangentially sucked into the vortex tube, in which a vortex flow with a peripheral and axial layer is formed, then the flow moves to the separator - confuser, in which dense particles of the peripheral layer of the flow form a counter vortex flow moving opposite to the original vortex flow, which moves along the bypass overpass into the accumulator of isolated particles of the mixture. The less dense particles remaining in the separator-confuser continue to move into the axial opening of the smaller base of the separator-confuser, then to the next technological link, involving in its movement along the overpass the exhausted excess air, which is ejected from the accumulator of isolated particles, the outlet overpass of the oncoming vortex until the pressure equalizes in them with the suction pressure created by the suction unit in the overpass of the treated mixture, then moves to the inlet overpass of the suction unit of the equipment. The modular principle and the invariance of the vortex equipment used in the method make it possible to complete multi-stage separator-confusers, cyclones-confusers, use them as vortex filters of suction equipment, to protect the surfaces of the internal parts of suction units. The vortex filters of the suction equipment give a significant advantage to mechanical mixtures processing devices, they allow the capture of particles of the mixture directly from the place of contamination, followed by cleaning and returning the cleaned volume of the mixture to the production room.
EFFECT: increasing the efficiency of dust collection, the ability to more effectively implement, for example, the process of dust cleaning, not to use bulky, ventilation, aspiration installations with a long network of overpasses of expensive equipment.
