Theoretical research on kinematic and constructive parameters of roller presses for sweet sorghum

Abstract

The overall objective of the project is to develop an eco-innovative system for pressing sweet sorghum by the generalised object method specific to the technical creation applied in this field. (Vitalie Belouasov). The representative technical solutions of the companies recognised in this field are known and it is necessary to use a creativity method to analyze the existing solutions, to assess technical and economic characteristics by methods specific to value analysis but also to find new constructive variants and choose the optimal variant that will then be developed by the design-research activity for the realisation of the technical documentation for the execution of an industrial prototype. The generalized object of the technical creation is in the form of a cylindrical morphological matrix, each sector representing a solution (sector represented by a triple assembly BiCjDk, the total number of solutions being: N=i·j·k solutions, some of which are known, others unknown. The incompatible ones must be eliminated, while the others must be analyzed, as they can lead to particularly efficient constructions after their complete solving.
