Abstract
An apparatus for processing a vegetable raw material comprises a casing mounted on shock absorbers and accommodating a drum having pins, electrodes and a control electrode connected to a relay. The apparatus also comprises a power regulator connected to the relay output and an input of a voltage regulator. The relay and voltage regulator are connected to the three-phase power supply. Each output of the voltage regulator is connected to a respective electrode.
Claims2
An apparatus for processing vegetable raw material,
- comprising:
- (1) shock absorbers for providing a preset density to the vegetable raw materials;
- (2) a casing, mounted on the shock absorbers having a longitudinal axis and a lower part;
- (3) the casing having an inlet pipe, an outlet port, and a central electrode and power electrodes disposed inside the casing and extending along the longitudinal axis of the casing in the lower part thereof, the power electrodes being in communication with a three phase power supply;
- (4) a drum having pins for conveying the vegetable raw materials from the inlet pipe to the outlet port of the casing, the drum having a cylindrical shape, accommodated in the casing and mounted for rotary movement relative to the electrodes, the electrodes being arranged under the drum;
- the control electrode for mounting the presence of the vegetable raw material supplied to the inlet pipe of the casing, being located upstream of the power electrodes in the direction of flow of the vegetable raw materials;
- (5) a relay for disconnecting a power supply when the flow of the vegetable raw material is interrupted, the relay having a first and a second input and an output, the first input to the central electrode and the second input connected to one phase of the three-phase power supply;
- (6) a power regulator for regulating power in accordance with the density and flow rate of the vegetable raw material, the power regulator having an input connected to the output of the relay and to the output of a flow pickup and an output;
- (7) a voltage regulator for regulating the voltage at the power electrodes, having a first, a second, a third and a fourth input and three power outputs, the first, second and third inputs being connected to the respective phases of the three-phase power supply, the fourth input being connected to the output of the power regulator, each power output being connected to a respective power electrode;
- (8) a means for rotating the drum in the casing.
