Description

Tetrahedral packing for reaction and absorption spaces and the like. like

It has already been proposed that packing for reaction towers in the fort of tetrahedra made of wire mesh, their side faces against the center point can be indented. It is also known that the surfaces to provide polygonal hollow packing with cutouts.

The filler body remains in the mesh of the wire mesh Liquid adheres and consequently slows down its passage through the reaction tower, without increasing the interaction of the treated substances. Vapor or gaseous Fabrics On the other hand, wire only has a low resistance. This building soft has the other Disadvantage. that it is easily compressed, especially when large masses are stacked on top of one another will.

The invention now relates to a tetrahedral, hollow filler body, its surfaces, which may be bent outwards or inwards, with cutouts and which are made of any building material suitable for this purpose can, such as metal, especially sheet iron, earthenware, porcelain, etc. The tetrahedron has open, z. B. blunt tips, while the sections of its surfaces, for example triangles, are so large that the tip of a body of the aftermath enter and a nesting of the loosely poured bodies brings about.

Because all edges always point downwards and all blunt tips are open, the liquid flows smoothly downwards; there is a nest-building in these Excluded packing.

Compared to the known Rasehigsehen rings, the fillers have according to the invention the advantage that they have a higher compressive strength, because there are no parallel edges. As a result, one can in their manufacture Use thinner sheet metal etc. and therefore save building material.

Furthermore, their surface is the same as the body with the same volume that of the Raschig rings is considerably larger. For example, the wall area is of hollow rings of I2 ccm space content 40 qem. Tetrahedron of the type described by 12 ccm, on the other hand, have a volume after deduction of the cutouts and sections areas lost at the tip 70 square cm usable reaction area. It is thus with the same volume of packing a much higher reaction effect soils and accordingly a correspondingly smaller reaction tower is needed. The space that the Occupy fillers, is further reduced by their 1 noanderschachtel n, without their effect being impaired.

The efficiency of the packing can be increased by that the building material is roughened or grooved in a manner known per se.

The production of the fillers made of sheet metal is extreme easy as the whole body is cut out and in the with a single punch same device can be bent and connected.

In the drawing the invention is in an exemplary embodiment shown graphically.

The triangles b are cut out from the surfaces of the tetrahedron a; its blunt tips c are open.

PATNT CLAIMS: 1. Tetrahedral packing for reaction and Absorption spaces and the like, their surfaces that may be bent inwards or outwards are provided with cutouts, characterized in that the same open, z. B. have blunt tips.

Claims (1)

2. Tetrahedral packing according to claim I, characterized in that that the areas cut out of the tetrahedral surfaces are so large that the Tip of a neighboring body can enter the opening. 3. Tetrahedral packing according to claim I and 2, characterized in that that their building material is stolen or fluted in a manner known per se.
