Abstract

A device to treat or process and especially to disintegrate materials and compounds characterized by a rotor, to which mentioned materials are fed axially. The rotor centrifugally accelerates the input material to a tool ring rotating around the rotor preferably in opposite direction, in which the tools are arranged radially. The tools of the tool ring intercept the highly accelerated material in flight and induce an extrem shear and bending strain effecting that the material disintegrates at it's natural weak point. The tools are arranged at the circumference at such distances that a laregely open circumference is established. That effects that the disintegrated components of the material can be discharged from the device after the impact without any hindrance even if the material is wet or sticky. The degree of impact of the tools on the material can be adjusted by the regulating parameters. That offers a large field of applications to disintegrate and separate raw materials and waste materials consisting of physically sufficiently different components into their individual components.

Dependent claims

A device mechanically for processing materials or compounds, comprising:

a rotor mounted for rotation about an axis;
a tool ring surrounding said rotor, radially spaced from said rotor, and mounted for rotation about the axis;
and
a distributor disposed for receiving materials or compounds that are fed to said device and for distributing the materials or compounds in a radial direction to said rotor, wherein:
said rotor comprises a plurality of radially extending blades constructed to radially accelerate and propel the materials or compounds such that the materials or compounds undergo flight outwardly toward said tool ring;
said tool ring has a circumference and comprises a plurality of tools each having a working edge, said working edges being disposed to intercept the materials or compounds in flight from said rotor when said tool ring is rotating for impacting against the materials or compounds and causing the materials or compounds to be bent around said working edges;
and
said tools are spaced apart around said circumference of said tool ring by distances such that a major portion of said circumference is open to assure an unhindered discharge of the materials or compounds after impact with said working edges.
