  • Patent number: 7389953
    Abstract: A spraying head for a granulating installation includes a slotted nozzle in which a nozzle channel having an oblong cross-section of flow is limited downwards by a floor surface, upwards by a top surface and laterally by a side face on each side. An oblong flow control body in the nozzle channel extends axially between the two side faces to limit the height of a nozzle slot. The control body is pivoted about a longitudinal axis to adjust the height of the nozzle slot. The control body is a cylindrical body having an oval cross-section and a central axis which is approximately centrically disposed between the floor surface and the top surface and pivoted about its central axis, such that underneath as well as below the control body a nozzle slot is formed, the height of which can be adjusted by pivoting the control body about its central axis.
