ABSTRACT

The screen has a feed device (37) at one front end of the drum rotating around its longitudinal axis, and an outlet (30) for conditioned material at the other. The second front end lies in a circular area with ring filter sections of differing mesh widths, 5,10,20,30 mm, surrounding the drum. There are silos (38) underneath the drum to receive filter material of different particle size. At the second end of the drum, there is a stationary collection area (30), in which either grainy material from above (33) or conditioned material (39) from inside the drum passes. At the bottom of the collection area (30), there is an opening, which can be shut by a flap (31), linked to another silo (36). Beside the collection area, the drum is shaped as a radially wider space (34) with shovels (32) to lift and transport the grainy material to the ring filter sections.

DESCRIPTION
The invention relates to a drum to condition or grading of granular material, particularly for road construction, with an input device on a first front end of about their lying longitudinal axis of the rotating drum and an output of conditioned goods at the second front end into an annular space, the formed by the drum concentrically surrounding ring sieve sections with different, from the second to the first end face increasing mesh sizes, and with the underside of the drum arranged in silos to hold screenings of different particle size. Such a drum is known (DE-OS 41 21 585) and serves to condition the one hand, granular material, for example by a torch applied to the granular material, and sort on the other hand, the individual parts of the granular material according to their size. However, the road is also granular material that was already installed and should be used together with new material again. This was already using material consists essentially of granular material that is coated on the surface with asphalt and bitumen, and therefore the drum of the type mentioned above are not used to classify too good with this kind of sticky surface in terms of size. But this just recycling or reprocessing of this asphalt is an important way of sparing use of nature and the environment. The invention is based on the task of designing a drum of the type mentioned, are that asphalt mixes and the like, classified and processed for further use in combination with other substances. This is achieved by the characterizing part of claim mentioned features. The drum according to the invention is suitable for two modes, one for the normal operation so far of conditioning and classification of granular material, the other for the collection of pre-built granular material for further processing. In the second operating state, the crushed asphalt outside the flash range, but given the side burner into the drum and passes from there into a special silo. The crushed asphalt is not reached on the screens, so that there can be no bonding and no wear. There is also the possibility of granules in the drum and the outer wall of the primary rock fabrics to mix and heat gently. Water vapor and any bitumen fumes can pass through the burner flame and be disposed of through a filter system. At higher amounts of asphalt, an indirectly-heated drums is used in parallel, which works with the hot exhaust gas from the main drum. This can take up to 50% material will be added and still achieve low emissions. The invention will be described with reference to the drawing, for example. The single FIGURE of the drawing shows a diagrammatic side view of a drum according to the invention. The drum shown in the figure is supplied via a conveyor belt 37 from the right-hand end. The material travels in a substantially horizontal direction to the other end of the drum, where a burner is installed th 35 Thereafter, the conditioned material from entering the ring sieve areas which have been schematically indicated by 5, 10, 20 and 30 mm. Underneath is the silos are 38 screens, filled in the classified material is, which can then be removed downwardly. At the burner end of the drum 34 is equipped with an extension, which are located on the inner circumference 34 of the extension blades 32 which are arranged diagonally, and ensure that the material found there, moved back to the ring sieve sections. At the burner end of the drum is constructed with a collecting section 30, which leads to its lower end by a flap 31 operable to another silo 36th In the position shown, the flap 31 in the open position, so that material that has accumulated in region 30, can enter the silo 36th If one of these in days of operation

from outside one of 33 reclaimed asphalt granules, so it collects in the lower part of the collecting th section 30 and enters the silo 36

CLAIMS
Drum to condition or grading of granular material, particularly for road construction, with an input device(37) at a first end face of oneself to their lying longitudinal axis of the rotating drum and an output (30) of conditioned goods at the second front end into an annular space, the through the drum concentrically surrounding ring sieve sections with different, from the second to the first end face of increasing mesh sizes, is formed, and at the bottom of the drum arranged in silos (38) for supporting screening material of different particle size, wherein the second front end of the drum, a stationary collection area (30) is formed, passes into the either granular material mainly from above (33) or wellconditioned (39) from the interior of the drum, the collecting area (30) below, a (31) over a flap closable opening exhibits, which is an additional silo (36) connected, and that the collecting area (30) adjacent to the drum in a radially expanded space (34) with blades (32) for lifting and transporting of granular material (39) to the ring sieve sections is formed.
