A description is provided of a method as well as
an apparatus for grinding particulate material, such as cement raw
materials, cement clinker or similar materials, in a roller mill (1)
by subjecting the material to pressing action in a zone (13)
between opposite, rotating surfaces where the material is directed to
the grinding zone via a feed shaft (11). The method is peculiar in
that the material in the feed shaft (11) is accelerated through the
action of gravity to a desired velocity without involving essential
air admixture, whereas the apparatus is peculiar in that the feed
shaft is essentially of a vertical configuration, with a downwardly
reduced cross-section, where the reduction of the shafts
cross-sectional circumference per height unit is downwardly decreasing.The
described configuration of the feed shaft has, surprisingly, proved
that the material over a given height of fall may attain high
velocities and that this is achievable without involving admixture of
air into the material. It has thus been established that it will be
possible for the material to attain velocities which are close to the
velocity achievable in connection with the free fall of individual
particles.

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant de broyer une substance particulaire, telle que des matières premières de ciment, du ciment non broyé ou analogues, dans un broyeur à cylindres (1), lequel procédé consiste à soumettre ladite substance à une force de pression dans une zone (13) située entre des surfaces tournantes opposées où la substance est dirigée vers la zone de broyage au moyen d'une barre de chariotage (11). Le procédé de l'invention est caractérisé en ce que la substance placée dans la barre de chariotage (11) est accélérée sous l'action de la gravité jusqu'à une vitesse recherchée sans admixtion importante d'air, l'appareil de l'invention étant caractérisé par le fait que la barre de chariotage est en configuration sensiblement verticale, avec une section transversale réduite vers le bas, la diminution de la circonférence transversale de la barre par unité de hauteur décroissant vers le bas. La configuration de la barre de chariotage décrite a montré, d'une manière surprenante, qu'au-delà d'une hauteur ou d'une chute donnée la substance peut atteindre des vitesses élevées, et ce sans entraîner une admixtion d'air dans la substance. Ainsi, il a été montré que la substance peut atteindre des vitesses proches de la vitesse obtenue dans le cadre d'une chute libre des particules individuelles.
