DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PNEUMATICALLY CONVEYING FINE PARTICLE BULK MATERIALS

摘要

The invention relates to a device for pneumatically conveying fine-particle bulk materials, particularly glass fibers. Said device at least comprises: i) a conveyor pipe (2) with a first blocking mechanism (15) which subdivides the conveyor pipe (2) into a first section (2a) located between a first end of the conveyor pipe (2) and the first blocking mechanism (15) and a second section (2b) located between the first blocking mechanism (15) and the second end of the conveyor pipe (2); ii) a filling conduit (20) that is provided with a suction apparatus (24) and a connecting unit (21) at the second end thereof for establishing a connection to a bulk material container, the second end of said filling conduit (20) being joined to the first end of the conveyor pipe (2) via a second blocking mechanism (11); iii) a dispensing mechanism (8) which is connected to the second end of the conveyor pipe (2); iv) a pressurized conveying apparatus (16) that is connected to the first end of the conveyor pipe (2) by means of a blocking mechanism (12); and v) a suction-type conveying apparatus (3) which is joined to the first section (2a) of the conveyor pipe (2) with the aid of a blocking mechanism (10).
