Rotary classifier and vertical mill
The present invention improves the even distribution of a powder to a pulverized coal pipe. A rotary classifier including: a rotary shaft rotatably supported around a rotational axis extending in a vertical direction; a frame body supported by the rotary shaft and including an opening on the outer periphery of the frame body; a plurality of powder outlets provided along the rotation direction and opening on the upper section of the frame body; a plurality of blades extending in the vertical direction at the opening on the outer periphery of the frame body and provided along the rotation direction; and an annular member that serves as a constricting section provided so as to narrow the interval from the blades to the rotary shaft.
1. A rotary classifier comprising:
a rotary shaft rotatably supported around a rotational axis extending in a vertical direction;
a frame body supported by the rotary shaft and including an opening on an outer periphery of the frame body, the frame body further including an upper support frame and a lower support frame, the upper support frame and the lower support frame being supported by at least one flat bar-shaped support part disposed so as to extend in the vertical direction between the upper support frame and the lower support frame;
a plurality of powder outlets provided along the rotation direction and opening on an upper section of the frame body;
a plurality of blades extending in the vertical direction at the opening between peripheral edges of the upper support frame and the lower support frame and provided along the rotation direction; and
a constricting section provided so as to narrow an interval from the blades to the rotary shaft,
the constricting section including an annular member provided continuously in the rotation direction and extending from a blades side to a rotary shaft side so as to narrow the interval from an outer edge of the annular member to the rotary shaft to an interval from an inner edge of the annular member to the rotary shaft,
wherein the annular member is disposed in an inside of the frame body relative to the blades, the outer edge of the annular member is directly supported by the blades, and the inner edge is directly supported by the at least one support part, and
the annular member includes an inclined surface that extends upward from the blades side to the rotary shaft side.
2. The rotary classifier according to claim 1 , wherein an angle of the annular member with respect to a horizontal surface of the inclined surface is set in a range from −50 degrees to 50 degrees.
3. The rotary classifier according to claim 1 , wherein the constriction section includes a convex part provided continuously in the rotation direction and protruding from the rotary shaft side to the blades side so as to narrow the interval from the outer edge to the rotary shaft.
