Title:
CYCLONE SEPARATOR AND METHODS FOR CONVEYING DRY BULK MATERIAL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/128734
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A cyclone type receiver (180) can be used in a pneumatic conveyor system for accurately delivering a wide variety of particulate materials. A receiver may include a cylindrical body configured to hold a filter (151). The top end of the cylindrical body may include an air inlet (181) for receiving a ducted air stream filled with a particulate material, and may be configured to convey the ducted air stream helically toward a conical section attached to the cylindrical section. The conical section may be configured to route the ducted air in a helical manner to remove the particulate material from the ducted air. In such a configuration, the filter (151) and the conical section may remove particulate material, thereby preferably increasing the transfer accuracy of the system and reducing the footprint of a traditional pneumatic conveyor system.
