Abstract

A feeding device for an in-line screw machine with a shaft rotating in a feed container. A conveying screw is arranged in the direction toward the longitudinal axis of the rotating shaft. At least one disk wheel is allocated to each longitudinal side in the feed container. A separate drive is allocated to each disk wheel for purposes of rotational movement.

Claims (22)

1. A feeding device for in-line screw machines with a shaft that rotates in a feed container and exhibits a screw that conveys in the direction toward the longitudinal axis of the rotating shaft, a first disk wheel is allocated to a first longitudinal side in the feed container, a second disk wheel is allocated to a second longitudinal side in the feed container, characterized in that the first disk wheel is rotated by a first drive, the second disk wheel is rotated by a second drive separate from the first drive, the first drive and second drive are separate from the shaft that rotates in the feed container and exhibits the screw that conveys in the direction toward the longitudinal axis of the rotating shaft, and the first disk wheel and the second disk wheel are-separately powered by first drive and second drive, respectively.

2. The feeding device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the disk wheels can be moved at different speeds.

3. The feeding device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the opposing sides of the disk wheels are provided with a structured surface.

4. The feeding device according to claim 3 , characterized in that both sides of the disk wheels are provided with a structured surface.

5. The feeding device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the disk wheels can move and/or loosen a compacted conveying medium in the feed container.

6. The feeding device according to claim 1 , characterized in that several disk wheels are arranged on each longitudinal side.

7. The feeding device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the disk wheels are offset axially to the longitudinal axis of the rotating shaft.

8. The feeding device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the disk wheels can be rotated against or in the conveying direction of the screw.

9. The feeding device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the disk wheels can be powered in opposite directions.

10. The feeding device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the disk wheels are connected with an axis by means of at least two spokes.

11. The feeding device according to claim 10 , characterized in that the spokes are provided with a structured surface.

12. A feeding device for in-line screw machines with a shaft that rotates in a feed container and exhibits a screw that conveys in the direction toward the longitudinal axis of the rotating shaft, a first disk wheel is allocated to a first longitudinal side in the feed container, a second disk wheel is allocated to a second longitudinal side in the feed container, characterized in that the first disk wheel is rotated by a first motor, the second disk wheel is rotated by a second motor separate from the first motor, the first motor and second motor are separate from the shaft that rotates in the feed container and exhibits the screw that conveys in the direction toward the longitudinal axis of the rotating shaft, and the first disk wheel and the second disk wheel are-separately powered by first motor and second motor, respectively.

13. The feeding device according to claim 12 , characterized in that the disk wheels can be moved at different speeds.

14. The feeding device according to claim 12 , characterized in that the opposing sides of the disk wheels are provided with a structured surface.

15. The feeding device according to claim 14 , characterized in that both sides of the disk wheels are provided with a structured surface.

16. The feeding device according to claim 12 , characterized in that the disk wheels can move and/or loosen a compacted conveying medium in the feed container.

17. The feeding device according to claim 12 , characterized in that several disk wheels are arranged on each longitudinal side.

18. The feeding device according to claim 12 , characterized in that the disk wheels are offset axially to the longitudinal axis of the rotating shaft.

19. The feeding device according to claim 12 , characterized in that the disk wheels can be rotated against or in the conveying direction of the screw.

20. The feeding device according to claim 12 , characterized in that the disk wheels can be powered in opposite directions.

21. The feeding device according to claim 12 , characterized in that the disk wheels are connected with an axis by means of at least two spokes.

22. The feeding device according to claim 21 , characterized in that the spokes are provided with a structured surface.
