    [0001] The present invention relates to a multi-blade metering valve.
    [0002] The invention relates more particularly, but not exclusively, to a multi-blade metering valve for use in an apparatus for the periodic discharge of a granular or powdery material from a storage tank, for example a silo.
    [0003] Multilane metering valves, such as those described for example in US Pat. No. 3,784,061, are already known. The multi-blade metering valve disclosed in US Pat. No. 3,784,061 comprises the following elements: a valve body having a central opening traversed, in actual use, by the powdery or granular material, which is discharged from a hopper into a hopper; distribution line; a plurality of shafts, each having a respective blade, which extend transversely to said central opening; a motor unit, which, by rotating the plurality of shafts, causes said blades to open / close to adjust the amount of material discharged from the hopper; and a vibrator device, which can vibrate both said valve body and said shafts with blades. One of the major disadvantages of such a multi-blade metering valve is that the energy of the vibrator device is dispersed in the valve body and does not conveniently reach the blades. This involves the formation of pulverulent material bridges in the spacings between the blades and less efficiency and accuracy in the metering of the material. In addition, the vibration of the entire valve body means a considerable noise level of the device, resulting in acoustic pollution of the working environment. Therefore, the main object of the present invention is to provide a multi-blade metering valve which is free from the disadvantages mentioned above and at the same time is simple and economical to produce. A first object of the present invention is a multi-blade metering valve comprising the following: a valve body having a central opening; a plurality of shafts, each having a respective blade, which extend transversely to the central opening; the blades being able to close, at least partially, the central opening; - an engine block which causes the opening / closing of the blades; and vibrators for vibrating the shafts and blades; the multi-blade metering valve being characterized in that it comprises an independent vibrator for each shaft. In addition, the multi-blade metering valve is provided with a vibration damping bushing on each shaft. Preferably, each independent vibrator device is programmed to vibrate (or not vibrate at all) with frequencies and intensities possibly different from those of other shafts and blades. Preferably, the multi-blade metering valve comprises vibration damping means, said damping means being associated with each shaft. Preferably, said damping means comprise a central through hole for accommodating a corresponding shaft. Preferably, a respective arm, on which a respective vibrating device is mounted, is associated with each shaft. Preferably, the multi-blade metering valve has a substantially equal upper half-shell and lower half-shell; each half-shell comprising a respective truncated pyramidal portion to which respective connecting means are attached. Preferably, a respective plurality of apertures 5 is arranged on two respective opposite and parallel edges of the truncated pyramidal portions; the perimeter of each opening being composed of a discontinuous line; in particular, said discontinuous line having at least some curved sides. Preferably, in actual use, the smaller bases of the two truncated pyramidal portions are pressed against each other so that each pair of apertures constitutes a seat housing respective vibration damping means; in particular, said seat being substantially polyhedric. Preferably, said damping means associated with each shaft comprises a substantially polygonal sleeve in which at least a portion of the sides is provided with a corresponding discharge notch. Preferably, the degree of opening of a blade is equal to the degree of opening of at least one other blade. Preferably, the degree of opening of a blade is different from the degree of opening of at least one other blade. Preferably, the axes of the trees; possibly the axes of the arms; and optionally the axes of the vibrator devices are mutually inclined at appropriately selected angles depending on the desired vibrating effect on each shaft.
    [0004] Preferably, the multi-blade metering valve further comprises means for finely adjusting the angles of inclination between the different axes, in order to adjust, from time to time, the metering valve according to the chemical / physical characteristics of the material to be discharged by through the valve. For a better understanding of the present invention, a preferred embodiment will now be described, purely by way of non-limiting example and with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which: Figure 1 shows an axonometric view of a first closed configuration of a multileaf metering valve according to the teaching of the present invention; FIG. 2 shows a plane of the multi-blade metering valve in its first closed configuration of FIG. 1; Figure 3 shows a side view of the multi-blade metering valve in its first closed configuration of Figure 1; - Figure 4 shows a sectional view A-A in the plane of Figure 2; FIG. 5 shows an axonometric view of a second open configuration of a multi-blade metering valve according to the teachings of the present invention; Figure 6 shows a plane of the multi-blade metering valve in its second open configuration of Figure 5; Figure 7 shows a side view of the multi-blade metering valve in its second open configuration of Figure 1; - Figure 8 shows a sectional view A-A in the plane of Figure 6; and Figure 9 (with an enlarged member) illustrates a portion of the multi-blade metering valve of the invention. In the accompanying figures, numeral 10 generally indicates a multi-blade metering valve according to the teaching of the present invention. The metering valve 10 comprises a substantially square valve body 20 having a substantially square central opening 30 traversed, in actual use, by the powdered or granular material which is discharged from a hopper (not shown) into a distribution line ( not shown). As shown in more detail in FIG. 4, the valve body 20 may consist of a substantially equal upper half-shell 20A and lower half-shell 20B. With regard for example to the upper half-shell 20A (but the same can be said of the other half-shell 20B), it comprises a relative truncated pyramidal portion 40A which is connected to a respective flange 50A, which looks like a frame. horizontal of the truncated pyramidal portion 40A. In the upper half-shell 20A, the truncated pyramidal portion 40A protrudes downwardly so that the truncated pyramidal portion 40A decreases from top to bottom. In the preferred embodiment shown in the accompanying figures, six openings 70A (3 for each edge) are formed on two opposite and parallel edges 60A, 60B of the truncated pyramidal portion 40A. The perimeter of each opening 70A is composed of a discontinuous line comprising three sides. Similarly, in the lower valve 20B, the truncated pyramidal portion 40B protrudes upwardly so that the truncated pyramidal portion 40B decreases from bottom to top. Similar to the upper half-shell 20A, six openings 70E (3 for each edge) are formed on two opposite and parallel edges 65A, 65B of the truncated pyramidal portion 40B. The perimeter of each opening 70B is composed of a discontinuous line comprising three sides for reasons which will be explained later. In actual use, the smaller bases of the truncated pyramidal portions 40A, 40B are pressed against each other.
    [0005] Insofar as, as already stated, the two truncated pyramidal portions 40A, 40B are identical, each opening 70A belonging to the truncated pyramidal portion 40A coincides with a corresponding opening 70B of the truncated pyramidal portion 40B.
    [0006] Each pair of openings 40A, 40B constitutes a hexagonal seat 80 housing a relative hexagonal socket 90 shown in greater detail in FIG. 9 and relative magnification. For those skilled in the art, it will be apparent that the hexagonal seat 80 is equivalent to any seat having any polygonal shape adapted to prevent rotation of the socket. In addition, at least in part, the sides of the polygon may be curved, not straight. As shown in FIG. 9, the hexagonal socket 90, preferably but not exclusively made of polyurethane, has six peripheral sides 90A, each of which has a corresponding discharge notch 90B. In the hexagonal socket 90 is further provided a circular central through hole 900 for housing a respective shaft 100A, 100B, 1000 on which is mounted a respective blade 110A, 110B, 1100 (Figures 1, 2, 5, 7). With known and not shown systems, each shaft 100A, 100B, 100C is rotated about a respective longitudinal axis (X1), (X2), (X3) by means of a single motor unit 200 which transmits the movement to a rack, or to a system of levers. The rotation of the shafts 100A, 100B, 1000 also rotates the blades 110A, 110B, 1100, thereby permitting switching from the closed configuration of FIG. 1 to the (at least partially) open configuration shown in FIG. Of course, the degree of opening of the blades 110A, 110B, 1100 depends on the angle of rotation of each shaft 100A, 100B, 1000 about its own axis (X). Each degree of opening of each blade 110A, 110B, 1100 may be equal to or different from that of the other two blades. This is because each blade 110A, 110B, 1100 may also have a rotation system independent of the rotation systems of the other two blades. As shown in more detail in FIGS. 3, 7, a respective arm 115A, 115B, 1150 (having a respective longitudinal axis (Y1), (Y2), (Y3)) extending perpendicularly to the axis (X1) (X2), (X3) protrudes from each shaft 100A, 100B, 1000. One of the features of the present invention is that a respective vibrator 250A, 250B, 250C is mounted on each arm 115A, 115B, 1150. In addition, each hex socket 90 is a damping device designed to avoid, as far as possible, the transmission of vibrations generated by the vibrators 250A, 250B, 2500 also to the valve body 20. With this arrangement, most of the the vibration energy is conveyed to the most needed organs, namely the shafts 100A, 100B, 1000 and the respective blades 110A, 110B, 1100, avoiding, as far as possible, dissipation of the vibration energy on the valve body 20. In a further embodiment of the present invention In the invention, not shown, the blades are asymmetrical with respect to the respective axis (X1), (X2), (X3), rather than symmetrical, as shown in the embodiment in Figs. 1 to 9 attached. In another embodiment, not shown, the blades may have different initial inclinations respectively.
    [0007] Each vibrator 250A, 250B, 250C is independent of the other two, and therefore it can be programmed to vibrate (or not to vibrate at all) with frequencies and intensities possibly different from those of other trees 100A, 100B, 100C and blades 110A, 110B, 110C. This means that by teaching the present invention, it is possible to set and program the vibration characteristics of each shaft 100A, 100B, 100C (and thus each blade 110A, 110B, 110C) according to the discharge parameters of the present invention. powdery (or granular) product from the hopper. For example, the performance of the metering valve may be optionally optimized by increasing the frequency of the external vibrators 250A, 250C relative to that of the central vibrator 250B (Fig. 3). Although the accompanying figures show embodiments in which each vibrator 250A, 250B, 250C is mounted on a respective arm 115A, 115E, 115C, it is possible to imagine an embodiment (not shown) in which each 250A vibrator , 250B, 250C is mounted on the respective shaft 100A, 1003, 100C, directly or through a suitable socket (not shown) installed on the shaft 100A, 100B, 1000.
    [0008] In addition, although in the accompanying figures, the axes (X1), (X2), (X3); (Y1), (Y2), (Y3); (Z1), (Z2), (Z3) are all mutually perpendicular, in other embodiments not shown, these axes (X1), (X2), (X3); (Y1), (Y2), (Y3); (Z1), (Z2), (Z3) are mutually inclined at angles appropriately selected by the user according to the desired vibrating effect on each shaft 100A, 100B, 1000. Such respective inclinations may be selected appropriate on each plane which at the same time contains a pair of axes (X1), (X2), (X3); (Y1), (Y2), (Y3); (Z1), (Z2), (Z3). In other words, in an embodiment not shown, each axis (Z1), (Z2), (Z3) of each vibrator 250A, 250B, 2500 can be inclined with respect to the corresponding axis (Y1), (Y2), (Y3) at an appropriate angle on each plane (not shown) which at the same time contains the pairs of axes (Y1), (Z1); (Y2), (Z2); (Y3), (Z3).
    [0009] The angles of inclination between the pairs may be equal or different. At most, at least one angle between the pairs of axes (X1), (X2), (X3); (Y1), (Y2), (Y3); (Z1), (Z2), (Z3) may be zero. In this case, the axis (Z1), (Z2), (Z3) of the vibrator 250A, 250B, 2500 coincides with the axis (Y1), (Y2), (Y3) of the arm 115A, 115B, 1150 respectively, or coincides with the axis (Y1), (Y2), (Y3) of the respective shaft 100A, 100E, 1000. The same comments also apply when each vibrator 250A, 250B, 250C is mounted on the respective shaft 100A, 100B, 1000. In the latter case, the elements concerned are then the pairs of axes (X1), (Z1); (X2), (Z2); (X3), (Z3), since the arms 115A, 115B, 1150 no longer exist. The metering valve of the invention may also be provided with known and not shown means which allow the buyer to finely adjust the inclination angles between the various axes (X1), (X2), (X3); (Y1), (Y2), (Y3); (Z1), (Z2), (Z3) to adjust, from time to time, the metering valve according to the chemical / physical characteristics of the material to be discharged through the valve.
    [0010] The main advantages of the multi-blade metering valve mentioned above are to prevent the formation of material bridges and to drastically reduce its noise level. In addition, it allows a more accurate metering of the amount of material exiting the valve with reduced energy dissipation which, thanks to the presence of the damping means, is used to vibrate the parts of the metering valve (shafts). and blades) necessary to cause the descent of the material, thereby avoiding dissipation of energy to vibrate the valve body.
