  • Patent number: 5780166
    Abstract: A rotating gate feeder (1) for feeding substantially particulate material comprises a housing (2) and a rotor (3) and also an end cap (8) at each end of the housing. The invention is characterized in that a wear-resistant coating (6) is cast directly on to the inner wall (14) of the housing which faces towards the rotor (3). The inner wall (14) of the housing functions as an outer mold and a purpose-adapted core (15) is used as an inner mold. The housing (2) may be provided at certain points with release zones on the inner walls (14) which face towards the cast wear-resistant coating (6). One or more wear members (12) having greater wear resistance than the molding compound may be embedded therein.

  • Patent number: 4644932
    Abstract: Method and device for manufacturing of asphalt bulk masses where a substantial part of the heat energy of the furnace gases from the drying and mixing process is transferred to the bulk mass fractions before those are supplied to the drying and mixing process and where the furnace gases by this process at the same time are cleaned for pollutions. Bulk masses are directed downwards between two parallelly arranged inclined planes (1, 5) where the lower inclined plane (1) comprising horizontally arranged downwards directed ribs (2) directing the furnace gases to the lower side of the bulk masses and where the second inclined plane (5) comprising vertically arranged ribs (4) suctioning the cleaned furnace gases up from the bulk masses after a substantial part of the heat energy being transferred to the bulk masses. At the lower and upper ends of the inclined planes accumulations of the bulk masses (7, 11) are maintained for preventing air from the atmosphere to penetrate into the system.
