If described second transport plane is a member that can see through air, if this second transport plane is a swinging chute and has a bottom that can see through air, so just can realize from second transport plane to the first transport plane or opposite a kind of special actv. transmission.If be provided with an aspirating mechanism in the downstream of foreign matter identification mechanism, the travelling speed of flow of tobacco just can keep very high so.This aspirating mechanism also can be arranged in the downstream of foreign matter separation device.
Preferably the travelling speed of regulation transportation flow on described first transport plane is at least 5.5m/s.Preferably stipulate a travelling speed until 11m/s.So just can reach a kind of travelling speed of flow of tobacco, it is apparently higher than the travelling speed of background technology.Usually this speed is until 5.5m/s.When a kind of identical haul for example flows 9000kg/h, a kind of according to Effective width of the present invention then between 1.6m and 0.8m.Because the tobacco of flow of tobacco is a single state or approximate a single state when foreign matter is discerned, therefore this identification is very effective, because the foreign matter identification mechanism of camera or laser scanner or the optics that preferably will be provided with can freely be seen or near the tobacco surface.Therefore when segregating foreign objects from flow of tobacco, can realize very high efficient.
Description of drawings
Below be limited to general plotting of the present invention, by means of embodiment the present invention exemplarily illustrated with reference to accompanying drawing.What all were described in detail in text can be clearly referring to accompanying drawing according to details of the present invention.Accompanying drawing is depicted as:
Fig. 1 summary is represented a kind ofly to be used for from the device of a flow of tobacco segregating foreign objects by of the present invention.
The specific embodiment
Tobacco 10 is placed on the swinging chute 17 on carrying direction 12.Swinging chute 17 has a bottom that is with holes 28, therefore breathes freely.Form a flow of tobacco 11 for 17 li at swinging chute, this flow of tobacco enters in the position of a suction band transport plane 14.This transport plane 14 includes a suction and is with 15, and this suction band rotates round two guiding rollers on the direction of arrow.Be provided with a suction box or a drawing mechanism 16 in addition, thereby make suction air enter into 16 li of drawing mechanisms from the below of suction band transport plane.Suction air is represented with Reference numeral 27.Suction is with 15 fabrics that are designed to breathe freely, so that corresponding windstream can be with by this suction.8 of tobacco 10 and foreign matters arrive the downside place of aspirating band by the suction air 27 with arrow (this arrow should be expressed a transmission direction 13) expression and also are sucked air 27 stickings there.
Since suction air therein tobacco be in the suction with on a position in design not too by force, and in the middle part, work fully, therefore other mainly moves in the intermediate cavity from the form of swinging chute 17 flow of tobacco part that lifted, pull-up to the suction band, that pick up or transportation with tobacco 10 or foreign matter 18, thereby on suction band transport plane 14 or below this transport plane 14, formed a kind of a single state of flow of tobacco basically.In the steering position, the drawing mechanism 16 of the flow of tobacco of transportation just no longer works on transporting direction 20, thereby these flow of tobacco continue to move in the position of a foreign matter identification mechanism to the bottom right with parabolic shape on the right.This foreign matter identification mechanism is made up of an optical detector 21 in the case, and this detector sends a light beam 22 or a light cone 23 and measures the light of its reflection towards flow of tobacco.Also be provided with a reference element 23 herein, it can be matched with or be matched with the color and the brightness of flow of tobacco.If discerned a kind of foreign matter, so can on the transporting direction just immediately following (about late 50-150mm) is separated to foreign matter 18 on the detaching direction 19 by means of a separating nozzle 24 (from this nozzle ejection pressurized air 25) in foreign matter identification mechanism back.
The flow of tobacco that stays transports for 29 li at the extraction passage by suction air 26.Tobacco 10 is suspended in a suction with on 15 the downside and be accelerated to needed speed according to the present invention.Speed common in the background technology is doubled to about 11m/s, and therefore correspondingly makes a device can have just half big or small transport plane width.
Unappropriated suction is with 15 to have some suctions position, and this suction position is set by drawing mechanism 16 or suction box 16.If there is not product adhesion, will hold equably so.If suction is with 15 partly to be taken by tobacco or foreign matter, occupies so and just no longer or seldom aspirate.Be that still aspirate with a suction force that is equivalent to unappropriated suction band position described empty position.Therefore stoped for the dual or multiple of same position to take, and produced a kind of real basically a single state.
The product of flow of tobacco form for example is transported to the below that suction is with by a swinging chute 17 or by the transport plane that another preferably also is with holes.Since the bottom 28 of swinging chute 17 beaten the hole in other words another transport plane beaten the hole, therefore can form windstream freely in the zone between swinging chute 17 or another transport plane and suction band transport plane 14.Product, just tobacco 10 and foreign matter 18 are with 14 to lift from swinging chute 17 by suction, and basic with a kind of a single state attached to suction with on 15 the downside.At the end place of suction with 15 suction position, described product (tobacco) and foreign matter on an impelling parabola-flight track (these article also can be subjected to extracting out the influence of extraction of the suction air 26 of 29 li in passage) with a kind of speed, be preferably the scanning range of 5.5-11m/s flight by the foreign matter recognition system of optics, the foreign matter of identification is then in the same position or be excluded mechanism following closely or separation device is targetedly got rid of with the form of air nozzle 24 in product stream or flow of tobacco.
For product (tobacco) also no longer is braked after leaving the suction position of suction band, make product within foreign matter recognition site or the separated part or enter into following closely in the passage, a kind of negative pressure that can set up is arranged in this passage.Product is pumped into 29 li in this extraction passage and does not therefore lose its speed.
