Abstract: A mill classifier, particularly a roller mill classifier, has a strip rotor and a concentrically arranged guide vane ring with flow-optimized guide vanes and flow channels for a parallel incoming and outgoing flow without constriction or with widening and a diffuser effect. The flow-optimized guide vanes with an incident flow tube with vertical rotation axis and at least one guide plate are arranged adjustably for a tangential to radial incident flow of the strip rotor.

Abstract: In a mill drying plant with a roller grinding mill and preferably in a cement production plant operated in compound with a clinker burning process and having a kiln fan and a fan downstream of a filter, a mill fan is connected upstream of the roller grinding mill as a further fan. This makes it possible to overcome the resistance of the roller grinding mill blade ring and to force the pressure zero point into the roller grinding mill, so that there is a low vacuum above the blade ring in the milling and classifying chamber and in the filter.

Abstract: Apparatus for the combustion of vanadium-containing fuels that makes use of the extremely high reactivity of the vanadium-containing fuels for combustion in a dust furnace. To avoid disadvantageous slag caking in a combustion area and in particular in the vicinity of the feed nozzles, e.g. for the pulverized fuel-air mixture and for combustion air, in a dust furnace, a top burner is placed in a roof of a combustion area and at least one dust nozzle is so positioned for the supply of the pulverized fuel-air mixture that a return flow of liquid slag particles to the top burner is prevented.

Polygon segments can be linked to polygon runs and the latter to polygon blade rings with different diameters.

Abstract: The invention relates to a roller mill, particularly a modular air-swept mill, with a rotary grinding pan on which roll grinding rollers and having columns, on which are mounted by means of rockers the grinding rollers, the columns being in each case fixed to a foundation frame and arranged as a mill foundation frame. For the use of stable and torsionally stiff columns for relatively large roller mills, according to the invention the foundation frames of the columns, together with the connecting frame parts are arranged in a mill foundation to form a circumferential foundation frame, particularly a polygonal or U-shaped frame. A gear foundation frame is located in the mill center separately from the circumferential frame and permits the construction of a different level of the particular areas of the mill foundation.

Abstract: A burner for mixing and burning at least two combustion media, particularly combustion air and a poor gas as a combustible gas. The burner comprises several burner nozzles. Each burner nozzle comprises at least three mutually coaxially arranged tubes. The tubes are radially spaced from one another so as to form annular clearance ducts, through which the combustion media can be passed into a combustion chamber. The arrangement according to the invention permits a good mixing and burning of several gaseous combustion media.

Abstract: The invention relates to a mill classifier or sifter, particularly a roller mill classifier, which is suitable as a high-performance classifier for a roller pan mill or a roller mill, e.g. for an air-swept mill. In order to achieve in the case of a particularly simple construction a high flexibility and optimization of the classifying processes as a function of the particular needs, there is a combination of a static distributor formed from several adjustable guide blade rings and a ledge rotor as the dynamic classifier. In order to achieve a multiple classifying and in particular a reduction of the coarse material fraction prior to dynamic classifying, in the vicinity of the static distributor is provided a deflecting device in an area of the classifier cover, through which the disadvantageous effects of a 90.degree. deflection are largely avoided.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for crushing material of different grain sizes, particularly an air-swept mill. From the method standpoint there is a regulation of the fluid feed flow in the vicinity of a blade ring and with adjustable reinforcing cladding segments, so that grinding material particle flows are moved in a flow envelope, particularly in a hyperboloid torus. From the apparatus standpoint, stationary and adjustable reinforcing cladding segments are arranged as a function of the grinding rollers rolling on a grinding pan. Using adjusting devices, acting on connecting areas of the reinforcing cladding segments, it is possible to bring about a horizontal or radial adjustment and/or an inclination adjustment of the reinforcing cladding segments for regulating the fluid feed flow from the outside and in continuous manner during a crushing process.

Abstract: An air-swept mill has an annular space with a blade ring between a rotary grinding pan and a casing wall for fluid delivery flow. The annular space and the blade ring form a gas directing or guiding device for rotary flow and circulation flow of the fluid delivery flow. Above the grinding pan, in the vicinity of a classifier, the casing wall is provided with at least one removal device for removing a part of an outer oversize flow, which is formed as a vented concentrated flow substantially directly at the casing wall.

Abstract: A roll mill, more specially for coal, has a turning pan and a number of rolls running thereon for producing a milling effect. Each roll is supported on a rocker arm, able to be turned about a horizontal axis which is roughly tangential to the pan. The rocker arm and the roll on it are forced down against the pan by a hydraulic cylinder joined with a fork which, in turn, is joined with the rocker arm for turning it about the turnpin. The fork may be unjoined from the rocker arm for upkeep work on the roll. Each rocker arm has a gas-tight cover structure which is part of the casing of the mill.
