Definitions

  • the present invention pertains generally to the field of mixers and mixing devices and methods.
  • the invention relates to radial flow impellers used in such mixing systems and methods.
  • a vessel which has a rotating shaft extending therein that is driven by a drive system typically external to the vessel.
  • the vessel forms a containment chamber for material that is to be mixed, agitated or otherwise to have energy imparted into it.
  • Impellers or impeller assemblies are mounted to rotate with the rotating driven shaft.
  • the impellers typically extend radially outwardly from the shaft for some distance towards the outside walls of the vessel.
  • the impellers in some cases may be paddle type elements or blade elements that may extend directly outwardly from a hub on the shaft, or may extend outwardly from a disc mounted to the shaft or may be a single disc having features disposed around the circumference of the disc.
  • the material to be mixed or otherwise treated is simply loaded into the vessel and then the impellers are activated.
  • the gas sparger is generally central so that the bubbles rise up and interact with the moving impellers.
  • impellers Two general types of impellers are known for many mixer systems.
  • One type of impeller is a so-called axial flow impeller.
  • These axial flow impellers which often take the shape of simply angled plates, or in other cases take the shape of a propeller, or winged shaped blade, move the material in a generally axial direction either upwards or downwards in the vessel parallel to the direction of the shaft elongation.
  • Radial flow impellers often take the shape of a flat plate or some other geometric shape, and typically push the material outwardly away from the impeller region using centrifugal force, thus creating a radial flow vector, generally outward, in the region outside of the impeller location.
  • One type of radial flow impeller utilizes a central disc having a number of circumferentially spaced blades or paddle portions extending out from the disc so that they partially overlap the disc and partially extend outward from the disc.
  • one commonly used type of blade has a generally parabolic cross section with two leading edges spanning back towards a single trailing vortex.
  • these blades have generally been mounted with the center line of the parabola being located co-planar with the plane in which the disc lives.
  • the combination of the disc and the blades is symmetrical with respect to the plane in which the disc lies. That is, the location of the blades from the disc is a mirror image of the portion of the blades below the disc.
  • an impeller assembly has a generally planar disc oriented in a first plane and having a circular outer edge; a plurality of blades mounted to the disc and extending beyond the edge of the disc, with the blades in cross-section having a shape that is substantially symmetrical along a center line and having a first segment and a second segment disposed on opposite sides of the center line, with one segment being symmetrical with at least a portion of the other segment, and with the blades mounted so that the respective center line of each blade is at an angle relative to the first plane in which the disc lies.
  • an impeller assembly for use with a shaft has a generally planar central mounting means for mounting to the shaft; and a plurality of blades mounted to the mounting means and extending radially outward beyond the mounting means with the blades in cross-section having a shape that is substantially symmetrical about a center line and having a first segment and a second segment disposed on opposite sides of the center line, with one segment being symmetrical with at least a portion of the other segment, and with the blades mounted so that the respective center line of each blade is at an angle relative to a plane in which the mounting means lies.
  • a mounting method includes rotating a shaft to drive an impeller assembly that comprises a generally planar disc; and a plurality of blades mounted to the disc and extending beyond the disc, with the blades in cross-section having a shape that has a first segment and a second segment disposed on opposite sides of the center line, with one segment being symmetrical with at least a portion of the other segment, and with the blades mounted so that the respective center line of each blade is at an angle relative to a plane in which the disc lies.
  • an impeller assembly has a generally planar disc oriented in a first plane and having a circular outer edge; and a plurality of blades mounted to the disc and extending beyond the edge of the disc, with the blades in cross-section having a shape that is substantially symmetrical along a center line and having a first segment and a second segment disposed on opposite sides of the center line, with one segment being symmetrical with at least a portion of the other segment, and with the blades mounted so that the respective center line of each blade is parallel to the first plane in which the disc lies, and the center line of each blade is offset from the first plane in which the disc lies.
  • an impeller assembly for use with a shaft has a generally planar central mounting means for mounting to the shaft; and a plurality of blades mounted to the mounting means and extending radially outward beyond the mounting means with the blades in cross-section having a shape that is substantially symmetrical about a center line and having a first segment and a second segment disposed on opposite sides of the center line, with one segment being symmetrical with at least a portion of the other segment, and with the blades mounted so that the respective center line of each blade is parallel to a plane in which the mounting means lies, and the center line is offset from the first plane in which the disc lies.
  • a mounting method includes rotating a shaft to drive an impeller assembly that comprises: a generally planar disc; and a plurality of blades mounted to the disc and extending beyond the disc, with the blades in cross-section having a shape that has a first segment and a second segment disposed on opposite sides of the center line, with one segment being symmetrical with at least a portion of the other segment, and with the blades mounted so that the respective center line of each blade is at an angle relative to a plane in which the disc lies.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an impeller assembly according to a first embodiment.
  • FIG. 2 is an end cutaway view of a portion of the impeller assembly of FIG. 1 .
  • FIG. 3 is a perspective view of an impeller assembly according to a second embodiment.
  • FIG. 4 is an end cutaway view of a portion of the impeller of FIG. 3 .
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 A first preferred embodiment of a radial flow impeller assembly mounted or a shaft is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 .
  • the impeller assembly 10 includes a radially extending disc 12 having an outer peripheral region 14 .
  • a plurality of individual blades 16 are provided which each have an upper segment 18 and a lower segment 20 .
  • the upper segment 18 has a leading edge 22 and the lower segment 20 has a leading edge 23 .
  • the segments converge at a rear vertex 24 .
  • a hub 26 mounts the impeller assembly 10 to a shaft 28 .
  • the upper segment 18 and lower segment 20 are symmetrical with respect to each other about an imaginary center line CL 1 , which is indicated by dotted lines.
  • the blade 16 is mounted to overlap with the outer portion of the disc 12 so that its imaginary center line CL 1 is at an angle (alpha) a with respect to the plane in which the disc 12 lies.
  • This angled orientation of the center line CL 1 of the parabolic blades 16 with respect to the plane of the disc 12 as described in FIG. 2 provides several advantages in some applications. For example, where gas is being sparged from beneath the impeller assembly 10 , because of the increased volumetric area inside the parabola lower segment 20 (compared to if the angle ⁇ was zero), greater gas handling can be achieved by the angled orientation. That is, greater gas handling is achieved prior to reaching the impeller gas handling flood condition in some situations. This is due at least in part to the larger enclosed region between the lower impeller segment 20 and the bottom of the disc 12 , so that more gas can be entrained.
  • the tilting of the blade 16 causes the upper region 22 to reach forward (that is the entire blade faces downward to some extent), and so gas also tends to be entrained under the lower surface of the upper segment 18 , which may increase one or both of the residence time or the total volume of gas that is temporarily contained by the impeller 16 .
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 a second embodiment is depicted.
  • the blade 16 is mounted to the disc 12 so that its center line CL 2 is at least substantially parallel, or completely parallel, with the plane in which disc 12 lies, but the center line CL 2 is also located offset a distance from the plane of the disc 12 .
  • the center line CL 2 is offset below the plane of the disc 12 by an offset distance D.
  • this offset also provides a greater volumetric region in the area bounded by the underside of the disc 12 and the upper inside of the lower segment 20 , as well as a portion 22 ′ which is a region of the upper segment of the parabola that is disposed below the plane of the disc 12 .
  • This arrangement also has a portion 22 ′′ of the upper segment of the parabola that is disposed above the disc 12 .
  • this embodiment also can provide benefits in terms of larger gas handling compared to a prior system where the parabolic blade is mounted with its center line co-linear with the plane of the disc 12 .
  • FIGS. 2 and 4 Two exemplary embodiments are described and illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 4 , respectively.
  • the vertex of the parabola is located on a center line and the vertex of the parabola in the center line intersect with the plane of the disc.
  • the center line of the parabola is parallel with the plane of the disc, but is offset by a distance D.
  • the embodiment of FIG. 4 could also have the parabola tilted downwardly somewhat similar to FIG. 2 , so that the center line intersects with the plane of the disc but not at the point of the vertex.
  • impellers could be mounted to the shaft via a different type of hub, for example a disc having spokes rather than being solid, or a plurality of individual arms extending from a hub or the shaft itself.
  • the blades themselves may be mounted directly to a hub or to the shaft and extend radially therefrom.
  • each blade could be made of two flat pieces meeting at a corner vertex.
  • an embodiment similar to FIG. 2 being tilted downwardly, or an embodiment similar to FIG. 4 offset downwardly can also be realized.
  • the cross section of the blades does not have to be symmetrical with respect to the center line.
  • either the upper or lower legs of the parabola may be longer or shorter than each other.
  • one of the upper or lower legs could have a cross sectional shape that is different than the opposite upper or lower leg.
  • the blades are shown as being solid items, the blades may be slotted or have ports extending therethrough at similar locations.
