Abstract
Abstract A particle accumulator display having a closed transparent chamber with a plurality of input nozzles to provide a vortex flow within the chamber. An ejection nozzle is centrally located within the chamat the same end as the inputozzles. A flow stabilizer is positioned between the input nozzles and the ejection nozzle. The flow stabilizer is spaced from the ejection nozzle to provide an annular channel adjacent the ejection nozzle. A tubular member communicates with the annular channel to permit material to be inserted into the closed chamber to treat the collected column for various tests. In a second embodiment, a second channel and accs tube is provided so that temp rature, pressurer other probes can be inserted into t chamber adjacent the collected column.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
188 words
A particle accumulator and test apparatus, comprising: a closed transparent chamber; means, including a plurality of input nozzles, for providing a vortex flow of a particle laden gas within the chamber; a gas ejection nozzle spaced from and centrally located at the end of the chamber adjacent the input nozzles; means, positioned between the input nozzles and the ejection nozzle, for stabilizing the flow within the chamber to permit at least one annular column of particles to accumulate within said chamber; said flow stabilizing means having a substantially conical wall extending and spaced from said ejection nozzle; means, forming at least one annular chammel adjacent the ejection nozzle for providing access to said chamber whereby treatment and test material and apparatus may be inserted into said chamber; and means, passing through the wall of said chamber, for providing access to said annular channel; means, positioned between the conical wall of the flow stabilizer and the nozzle, for providing a plurality of annular access channels to said chamber; said means, passing through the wall of said chamber, including means for providing access to each of said annular access channels.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
188 words
A particle accumulator and test apparatus, comprising: a closed transparent chamber; means, including a plurality of input nozzles, for providing a vortex flow of a particle laden gas within the chamber; a gas ejection nozzle spaced from and centrally located at the end of the chamber adjacent the input nozzles; means, positioned between the input nozzles and the ejection nozzle, for stabilizing the flow within the chamber to permit at least one annular column of particles to accumulate within said chamber; said flow stabilizing means having a substantially conical wall extending and spaced from said ejection nozzle; means, forming at least one annular chammel adjacent the ejection nozzle for providing access to said chamber whereby treatment and test material and apparatus may be inserted into said chamber; and means, passing through the wall of said chamber, for providing access to said annular channel; means, positioned between the conical wall of the flow stabilizer and the nozzle, for providing a plurality of annular access channels to said chamber; said means, passing through the wall of said chamber, including means for providing access to each of said annular access channels.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
106 words
A particle accumulator channel test apparatus, comprising: a closed chamber; a gas ejection nozzle, positioned on the axis at one end of said chamber; means, including a plurality of input nozzles surrounding said ejection nozzle, for providing aT least one annular column of particles within said chamber; means forming at least one annular channel, between the input nozzles and the ejection nozzle, adjacent the ejection nozzles, for providing access to said chamber whereby treatment and test materials, and test apparatus may be inserted into the particle column within said chamber and means, passing through the walls of said chamber for providing access to said annular channel.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
106 words
A particle accumulator channel test apparatus, comprising: a closed chamber; a gas ejection nozzle, positioned on the axis at one end of said chamber; means, including a plurality of input nozzles surrounding said ejection nozzle, for providing aT least one annular column of particles within said chamber; means forming at least one annular channel, between the input nozzles and the ejection nozzle, adjacent the ejection nozzles, for providing access to said chamber whereby treatment and test materials, and test apparatus may be inserted into the particle column within said chamber and means, passing through the walls of said chamber for providing access to said annular channel.
