Abstract
A device for the comminution or other treatment of bulk material comprises one or more modular units of prismatic, preferably cubic, shape with two intersecting throughgoing bores, one of them being circular and the other square in cross-section. A rotary shaft carrying one or more tools extends axially in the circularly sectioned bore of at least one module and is driven by a motor fastened to a face thereof; the square-sectioned bore forms an inlet and an outlet for the goods to be treated. At least the apertured sides of each module have passages facilitating its connection to an adjoining module or to a cover; other attachments on the solid sides of the unit may be provided with channels for the circulation of a cooling fluid.
Claims10
A device for the treatment of bulk material, comprising:
- a modular unit in the form of a prismatic block with six sides having a first throughgoing bore extending between a first pair of said sides and a second throughgoing bore extending between a second pair of said sides while intersecting said first bore, at least said first and second pairs of sides being provided with mounting formations offset from said bores;
- a drive motor secured to one of the sides of said first pair by the mounting formations thereof and provided with a shaft extending into said block along the axis of said first bore;
- and
- tool means on said shaft in a region of intersection of said bores, said second bore forming an inlet and an outlet for bulk material to be processed by said tool means, said mounting formations enabling the attachment of substantially identical modular units to sides of said block not occupied by said drive motor.
