Definitions

  • the invention is directed to a fluid-permeable, woven dryer fabric for use in a papermaking machine, being woven of machine direction yarns and cross machine direction yarns in a multilayer weave with said machine direction yarns being evenly spaced along the width of the dryer fabric and with additional yarns being located in said dryer fabric at selected positions across the width of the dryer fabric to produce longitudinally extending zones in said dryer fabric across the width thereof having different fluid permeabilities and to a method for making it.
  • the usual papermaking machine has three primary sections; a forming section, a press section and a drying section.
  • a forming section wet pulp is deposited on the forming surface of a forming fabric which is of the nature of a fluid-permeable endless belt. Vacuum is applied to the underside of the forming fabric to withdraw moisture from the pulp, causing the pulp to form a sheet on the forming fabric.
  • the sheet is transferred to the press section and is conveyed by a press fabric through a series of press rolls to further remove water from the web.
  • the press section the web is then transferred to the dryer section where it is passed about a series of heated dryer cylinders.
  • One or more dryer fabrics are employed to press the moist web uniformly and successively against the dryer cylinders to dry the web.
  • papermaking machine is to be considered in a broad or generic sense, the machine producing a paper or paper-like material such as pulp, board, asbestos sheet or other similar structures.
  • the dryer cylinders are internally heated by steam or the like.
  • the cylinders usually have imperforate surfaces for contacting the paper web.
  • Other rolls, such as packet rolls may have surfaces which are perforated or slotted to permit the passage of heated air therethrough to increase the drying action on the web.
  • a second problem results from the fact that moisture from the paper web tends to collect in enclosed areas or "pockets" in the dryer section. Usually more moisture accumulates in the central portions of the pockets than in those portions of the pockets lying nearer the lateral edges of the dryer section, the portions nearer the lateral edges of the drying section being more readily ventilated by the surrounding atmosphere.
  • dryer fabrics have been devised which are fluid-permeable, such dryer fabrics having an open weave.
  • An exemplary open weave dryer fabric is taught in US-A-2,180,054. Dryer fabrics in the form of nonwoven structures such as needled felts and perforated plastic belts have also been used.
  • various types of air jet apparatus or exhaust means have been provided to eliminate moisture build-up in the dryer pockets. Such devices are generally extremely complex and difficult to maintain, particularly in new dryer sections capable of handling webs having a width of the order of 10 m.
  • a fluid permeable dryer fabric is provided, the permeability of which varies at selected locations across its width. This is accomplished in several ways.
  • the machine direction yarns in the edge regions of the dryer fabric are more closely spaced with respect to one another than in the center region of the dryer fabric.
  • machine direction used herein and in the claims refers to the direction of travel of the dryer fabric when mounted in the dryer section of the papermaking machine.
  • cross machine direction refers to that direction transverse the dryer fabric and perpendicular to the direction of travel of the dryer fabric in the dryer section of the papermaking machine.
  • US-A-3,867,766 teaches selectively varying the diameter of the machine direction yarns so that those yarns which lie in the area desired to be of reduced permeability have a diameter greater than those machine-direction yarns located in the more permeable sections of the dryer fabric.
  • this reference teaches the utilization of machine direction yarns having a higher bulk construction near the lateral edges of the dryer fabric. These yarns will tend to flatten and close off the effective open area between adjacent yarns, thus reducing the permeability of the dryer fabric near its edges.
  • the dryer fabric is selectively treated with greater amounts of resin or the like at its edges, than in its center, to reduce permeability at the edges thereof.
  • FR-A-2024 388 describes a woven dryer fabric of the type indicated above, wherein said additional yarns are laid in machine direction for the purpose of different permeability across the width of the dryer fabric. It has been found that the known dryer fabric is not entirely satisfactory in all cases, especially regarding the method of producing the same.
  • FR-A-2 407 291 shows additional cross direction yarns (weft-yarns) in a dryer fabric but only to influence the permeability in width as a whole which in some cases also is not satisfactory.
  • the present invention is based upon the discovery that if, in a woven dryer fabric, additional cross machine direction yarns, which may be of various thicknesses or bulk, are located in the fabric at selected positions across the fabric, the permeability of the dryer fabric can be varied by design, in different sections across its width.
  • the additional cross machine direction yarns have little or no effect on the machine direction load bearing properties of the dryer fabric.
  • the present invention can be practiced in the manufacture of dryer fabrics made substantially from monofilament yarns.
  • the dryer fabrics of the present invention can also be pinseamed.
  • edge flutter A well known problem encountered in the dryer section of a papermaking machine is frequently referred to as "edge flutter" in the web. This problem is more severe at the web edges and tends to limit the speed at which the dryer section of the papermaking machine can be run.
  • the dryer fabrics of the present invention provide much better control of edge flutter in the web and therefore permit the dryer section to be run at higher speeds.
  • Woven dryer fabrics are used in the dryer section of the papermaking machine in the form of endless belts.
  • the dryer fabrics may be woven directly in the form of endless belts by endless weaving techniques well known in the art.
  • the weft or filling yarns extend in the machine direction and the warp yarns extend in the cross machine direction.
  • the dryer fabrics can be flat woven with their ends joined by well known means to form continuous belts.
  • the warp yarns extend in the machine direction and the weft or filling yarns extend in the cross machine direction.
  • the dryer fabrics of the present invention can be woven by either technique, for purposes of an exemplary showing the dryer fabrics will be described herein in terms of flat woven fabrics.
  • the dryer fabric is woven utilizing any appropriate multi-layer weave and stuffer picks are introduced into the weave at edge sections of the dryer fabric.
  • the stuffer picks extend from the dryer fabric edges inwardly in a cross machine direction for a predetermined distance toward the center of the fabric. This provides a dryer fabric having a central section of high permeability and edge sections of lesser permeability.
  • stuffer picks are introduced in the edge sections of the dryer fabric, as in the first embodiment. Additional stuffer picks of lesser diameter or less bulk are introduced into the center section of the dryer fabric, extending in the cross machine direction between opposed edge section stuffer picks.
  • the resulting dryer fabric of this second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the center section of the dryer fabric has a somewhat reduced permeability, although the center section is still of greater permeability than the edge sections of the dryer fabric.
  • stuffer picks are again introduced at the edge portions of the dryer fabric.
  • alternate opposed pairs of stuffer picks at the edge sections are longer than the remaining edge stuffer picks.
  • additional stuffer picks of lesser diameter or less bulk are introduced into the dryer fabric extending between opposed edge stuffer picks.
  • This provides a dryer fabric having edge sections containing the larger diameter stuffer picks, a center section containing the stuffer picks of less diameter or bulk and two intermediate sections containing alternate large diameter stuffer picks and stuffer picks of lesser diameter or bulk.
  • the dryer fabric has five sections across its width of differing permeabilities. The centermost section has the greatest permeability. To either side of the center sections are sections of intermediate permeability and at the edges are sections of the least permeability.
  • a fourth embodiment of the present invention is identical to the third embodiment with the exception that the stuffer picks of lesser diameter or bulk are omitted. This again yields a five section dryer fabric with the centermost section having maximum permeability.
  • the width of the sections of the dryer fabric of differing permeabilities does not constitute a limitation.
  • the various sections can be made of any appropriate width depending upon the ultimate conditions of use of the dryer fabric, the material being dried, the axial temperature variance of the dryer rolls, and the like.
  • the nature of the yarns from which the dryer fabric is woven does not constitute a limitation. Spun yarns, monofilament yarns, multifilament yarns and combinations thereof can be used.
  • FIG. 1 wherein an exemplary dryer section of a papermaking machine is shown.
  • the dryer section is made up of an upper array of drying cylinders 1, 2 and 3 a lower array of drying cylinders 4 and 5.
  • the drying cylinders 1 through 5 are heated by an appropriate means such as steam or the like.
  • other rolls such as rolls 9 and 11, may have imperforate surfaces, or perforated surfaces to permit the passage therethrough and through the web to be dried of heated air.
  • a web to be dried is shown at 6.
  • the web has an upper surface 6a and a lower surface 6b.
  • the web is guided to and from the dryer section by guide rolls 7.
  • the web 6 may be of any material normally made in a papermaking or papermaking-like machine including paper, pulp, board, asbestos sheet or the like. It will be noted from Figure 1 that the web travels through the dryer section in a senuous path, contacting each of the upper and lower dryer cylinders in order. It will further be noted that the upper surface 6a of web 6 is contacted by the cylinders 4 and 5 of the lower array, and the lower surface 6b of the web is contacted by cylinders 1, 2 and 3 of the upper array.
  • the dryer section of Figure 1 is of the type utilizing two dryer fabrics.
  • a first dryer fabric 8 is shown passing about portions of the upper array of cylinders 1, 2 and 3.
  • the dryer fabric is appropriately guided and tensioned by additional pocket rolls 9.
  • the purpose of the upper dryer fabric 8 is to bear upon web 6 as it passes about cylinders 1, 2 and 3, bringing the underside 6b of the web into intimate contact with the cylinders 1, 2 and 3.
  • a lower dryer fabric 10 passes about portions of the cylinders 4 and 5 of the lower array and is appropriately tension and guided by pockets rolls 11. Again, the purpose of lower dryer fabric 10 is to press the web 6 against dryer cylinders 4 and 5, bringing the upper surface 6a of the web into intimate contact with dryer cylinders 4 and 5. It will be understood that the dryer fabrics 8 and 10 are substantially identical, except for length, and the teachings of the present invention are applicable to either the upper or the lower dryer fabrics.
  • FIGs 2, 3 and 4 A first embodiment of the present invention is illustrated in Figures 2, 3 and 4, wherein like parts have been given like index numerals.
  • the dryer fabrics of the present invention are woven of yarns and the yarns may be spun yarns, monofilament yarns, multifilament yarns or combinations thereof.

  • the warp or machine direction yarns are shown at 13.
  • the weft or filling yarns are arranged in two layers.
  • the upper fitting yarns are indicated at 14 and the lower filling yarns are shown at 15. Since the yarns 14 and 15 are arranged in vertical pairs, only yarns 14 are visible in Figure 2. Both layers of filling yarns are shown in Figures 3 and 4.
  • stuffer picks are inserted in the diamond-shaped openings 16.
  • the stuffer picks are illustrated at 17 in Figure 4.
  • the stuffer picks 17 extend from the longitudinal edges of the dryer fabric 12 for a predetermined distance toward the center of the dryer fabric. It will be immediately evident from Figure 2 that the dryer fabric 12 has three sections or zones. Edge sections 18 and 19 contain the stuffer picks 17. A central section or zone 20 is devoid of stuffer picks. As a result of the presence of stuffer picks 17 in sections 18 and 19, these sections will have a fluid permeability less than central section 20.
  • sections 18, 19 and 20 does not constitute a limitation on the present invention.
  • sections 18, 19 and 20 may be tailored to have any desired width so that the dryer fabric 12 may have a cross machine direction permeability profile tailored to its particular end use.
  • the width of sections 18, 19 and 20 will depend upon a number of factors such as the nature of the material from which the web 6 is made, the desired moisture profile for the dried web, the temperature variance along the axial length of dryer cylinders 1 through 5 in the cross machine direction, the yarns from which the dryer fabric is made, the width of the dryer fabric and the web 6, etc.
  • FIGS 5 and 6 illustrate a second embodiment of the present invention.
  • the dryer fabric is generally indicated at 12a.
  • Dryer fabric 12a is substantially identical to dryer fabric 12 of Figures 2 through 4 and like parts have been given like index numerals.
  • the dryer fabric 12a has warp or machine direction yarns 13, weft or filling yarns 14 and 15 in the cross machine direction and stuffer picks 17 extending inwardly from both longitudinal sides of the dryer fabric.
  • the dryer fabric 12a is again divided into two edge zones 18a, and 19a and a central zone 20a.
  • the only difference between the dryer fabric 12a of Figures 5 and 6 and the dryer fabric 12 of Figures 2 through 4 lies in the fact that additional stuffer picks are located in the central section or zone 20a.
  • Each of the additional stuffer picks 21 extends the full width of the central section 20a and are in general alignment with the opposed edge stuffer picks 17 which occupy the same diamond-shaped opening 16.
  • Figure 4 may be considered to be a longitudinal cross sectional view through either of the sections or zones 18a or 19a of Figure 5.
  • Figure 6 is a longitudinal cross sectional view through the central zone 20a of Figure 5.
  • the stuffer picks 21 are so selected as to have a smaller size or less bulk than stuffer picks 17.

Fabric 12b differs from the previous embodiments in that alternate edge stuffer picks are longer, extending inwardly from the edge of the dryer fabric toward the center a greater distance. These stuffer picks are illustrated at 17a.
  • Dryer fabric 12b is also provided with stuffer picks of lesser diameter or bulk extending between the edge stuffer picks.
  • Those intermediate stuffer picks extending between edge stuffer picks 17 are identical to those illustrated in Figure 5 and are again given index numeral 21.

  • edgemost sections 22 and 23 are equivalent to edge sections 18 and 19 of Figure 2 and 18a and 19a of Figure 5. Therefore, the cross sectional view, Figure 4, can be considered to be illustrative of the longitudinal cross section of sections 22 and 23 of Figure 7, differing only in that alternate ones of the stuffer picks of Figure 4 would bear the index numeral 17a.
  • These edgemost sections or zones would have the least permeability.

16. Das Verfahren, welches in Anspruch 12 beansprucht ist, welches die (folgenden) Schritte umfasst: die erste Gruppe von Füllfäden (17, 17a) wird derart in das Trocknergewebe (12c) eingeführt, daß sich die Füllfäden von einer Längskante desselben in Richtung auf die Mitte desselben erstrecken, und in das Trocknergewebe wird eine zweite Gruppe von Füllfäden (17, 17a) derart eingeführt, daß sich diese Füllfäden von der anderen Längskante desselben in Richtung auf die Mitte desselben erstrecken, wobei jeder zweite Füllfaden (17a) in der ersten und in der zweiten Gruppe länger ist als die restlichen Füllfäden (17) der betreffenden Gruppe, wobei in der ersten und in der zweiten Gruppe die zweiten, längeren Füllfäden (17a) dieselbe Länge haben und wobei die restlichen Füllfäden (17) dieselbe Länge haben, um auf diese Weise ein Trocknergewebe (12) herzustellen, welches zwei Randzonen (22, 23) geringerer Flüssigkeitsdurchlässigkeit, eine mittlere Zone (24a) höherer Flüssigkeitsdurchlässigkeit und zwei Zwischenzonen (25a, 26a) mittlerer Flüssigkeitsdurchlässigkeit aufweist.
17. Das Verfahren, welches in Anspruch 15 beansprucht ist, welches den Schritt umfasst, daß in das Trocknergewebe (12b) eine dritte Gruppe der Füllfäden (21,21a) derart eingeführt wird, daß diese Füllfäden (21, 21a) sich zwischen der Garnen (17, 17a) der ersten und der zweiten Gruppe (von Füllfäden) erstrecken.
18. Das Verfahren, welches in Anspruch 16 beansprucht ist, welches den Schritt umfasst, daß in das Trocknergewebe (12b) eine drite Gruppe der Füllfäden (21,21a) derart eingeführt wird, daß diese sich zwischen den Garnen (17, 17a) der ersten und der zweiten Gruppe erstrecken.
19. Das Verfahren, welches in Anspruch 17 beansprucht ist, bei dem die Füllfäden (21) der dritten Gruppe einen Durchmesser haben, der kleiner ist als der Durchmesser der Füllfäden (17) der ersten und der zweiten Gruppe.
20. Das Verfahren, welches in Anspruch 17 beansprucht ist, bei dem die Füllfäden (21) der dritten Gruppe eine geringere Fülle haben als die Füllfäden (17) der ersten und der zweiten Gruppe.
21. Das Verfahren, welches in Anspruch 18 beansprucht ist, bei dem die Füllfäden (21, 21a) der dritten Gruppe einen Durchmesser haben, der kleiner ist als der Durchmesser der Füllfäden (17, 17a) der ersten und der zweite Gruppe.
