METHOD FOR OPERATING THE AIR CIRCUIT AND CONVEYING STOCK FLOW IN THE CASING OF A HAMMER MILL

摘要

To operate the air circulation and convey the stock flow of scrap material comminuted in the housing (1) of a hammer mill, the airflow generated by the blower effect of a rotor (2) and the stock flow passing through an upper classifying grate (4) are diverted by a deflector hood (8) and guided vertically downwards into a duct (6) that is separate from the housing (1). The stock flow is combined with the stock flow classified in the area of a lower classifying grate (5). The air flow is then guided in the circulating air and the combined stock flow is conveyed to a device (11) for further processing, sorting and/or conveyance.
