Abstract

A classifying rotor has a rotatable frame body and classifying blades. The frame body has an opening portion on an outer peripheral portion and an ejection port for ejecting a fluid having flowed into an inside through the opening portion to an outside. The classifying blades are disposed at a desired interval in a circumferential direction on an outer peripheral side part in the frame body. The classifying blades are provided in the frame body so that an angle formed by a direction of the classifying blade and a rotating direction of the frame body becomes a desired inclination angle. The desired inclination angle is an angle at which classification accuracy becomes better when the classifying blades are inclined so that the formed angle becomes gradually smaller from 90 degrees.

Claims (12)

1. A classifying rotor comprising:

a rotatable frame body having an opening portion on an outer peripheral portion and having an ejection port for ejecting a fluid having flowed into an inside through the opening portion to an outside, the rotatable frame body comprising two circular plates disposed coaxially with each other and vertically separated from each other;

a plurality of classifying blades disposed at a desired interval in a circumferential direction on an outer peripheral side part in the frame body and between the two circular plates; and

a plurality of rectifying blades disposed on an inner side part from the classifying blade in the frame body at a desired interval in the circumferential direction and between the two circular plates;

wherein the ejection port is located at a center part of the rotatable frame body, and wherein the plurality of rectifying blades are located between the election port and the plurality of classifying blades.

2. The classifying rotor according to claim 1 , wherein

a shape of the classifying blade is formed so that classification particle size becomes constant on an entire region in a radial direction from an outer periphery to an inner periphery in a classification chamber formed between the adjacent classifying blades.

3. The classifying rotor of claim 1 , wherein the classifying rotor is provided in a housing;

wherein the classifying blades are provided so that an angle formed by a direction of the classifying blade and a rotating direction of the frame body becomes a desired inclination angle; and

wherein the desired inclination angle is an angle at which classification accuracy becomes better when the classifying blades are inclined so that the formed angle is less than 90 degrees.

4. The classifying apparatus as recited in claim 3 , further comprising rotating means for rotating the classifying rotor, and an outflow chamber which causes particles classified by the classifying rotor and having flowed into the classifying rotor to flow out of the housing.

5. The classifying apparatus as recited in claim 3 , further comprising rotating means for rotating the classifying rotor, the rotating means having a rotating shaft having a through hole extending in an axial direction therethrough for causing particles classified by the classifying rotor and having flowed into the classifying rotor to flow out of the housing.
