Abstract
A tubular free-fall separator for the electrostatic separation of particles of a plastics mixture, includes two parallel opposite rows of vertical tubes which are either arranged rotatably around their own axis or are fixedly installed and are connected with a direct current voltage source for maintaining an electrostatic field between the rows. The tube rows are arranged in such a manner that two adjacent axis points of the tubes of one row always form a parallelogram, which has no right angles, with the opposite adjacent two axis points of the tubes of the other row.
Claims3
Tubular free-fall separator for separating plastic mixtures comprising
- two opposite parallel rows of vertical tubes, and each tube having a vertical axis, and each vertical axis having an axis point;
- a dc voltage source for maintaining an electrostatic field electrically connected to said tubes;
- wherein there are four adjacent axis points of the tubes, and two of said axis points of one row being opposite to two other axis points of another row and are disposed in each case angularly displaced to form corners which form a parallelogram having no right angles.
Tubular free-fall separator for separating plastic mixtures comprising
- two opposite parallel rows of vertical tubes, and each tube having a vertical axis, and each vertical axis having an axis point;
- a dc voltage source for maintaining an electrostatic field electrically connected to said tubes;
- wherein two axis points of the tubes of one row of tubes form an equally-sided triangle with one axis point of an opposite row of tubes.
