Abstract
An apparatus for tempering fluid glues in continuous operation has a heat transfer body made of a cuboid aluminum block (26) in which is integrated the glue channel (24, 25), and the broad-side surfaces of which are thermally linked to Peltier elements (28) for heating and cooling the glue to be tempered. The Peltier elements (28) are provided on their heat transfer surfaces opposite to the aluminum block (26) with heat conductive ribs (30) that can be charged with a flow of cooling and/or heating air through an air channel (44). Inside the glue channel (24, 25) are arranged baffle plates or ribs as static mixers (36) that ensure a thorough mixing and an even temperature within the flow of glue.
Claims30
Tempering apparatus for fluids with a heat-exchange body of high thermal conductivity exhibiting a parallelepipedal solid body (26), wherein at least one broad-side face of the heat-exchange body is thermally connected with Peltier elements (28) and with boreholes disposed in the heat-exchange body, which boreholes are connected to a meander-shaped flow channel (24, 25) with an input opening (32) and a discharge opening (34), wherein the flow channel comprises means for feeding it with high-viscosity masses as fluids, and wherein the Peltier elements (28) are formed as combined heating and cooling aggregates, depending on the polarity of their connection terminals, and wherein a sensor is provided for measuring the viscosity of the mass flow exiting from the tempering apparatus, as well as with an automatic controller fed with the respective measurement value for controlling the Peltier elements (28), depending on the deviation from a predetermined set-point value.
