device for dosing raw materials for aluminum reduction cells.

摘要

The invention relates to a device for the metered feeding of stock into an aluminum electrolyzer. The device comprises a hopper for the material to be metered, a metering chamber with a rod having a pneumatic drive, an upper shut-off element which is rigidly fixed on the rod in the upper part of the metering chamber and is in the form of a valve, a lower shut-off element which is fixed on the end of the rod and is in the form of a cone valve with a conical cover, and charging apertures which are arranged around the perimeter in the upper part of the dosing chamber above the base of the hopper. The upper limits of the charging apertures are arranged above the upper position of the valve, and the distance from the base of the cone valve to the lower section of the metering chamber in an upper position of the rod is not less than the distance from the lower surface of the upper shut-off element to the lower limit of the charging apertures. An increase in the reliability of the device and in the metering accuracy is ensured, and, accordingly, the technological characteristics of the operation of the electrolyzer are improved.
