Definitions

  • the invention relates to a dewatering belt for presses in the wet press section of a paper machine with a support belt in the form of a screen fabric and an upper layer lying on the side of the support belt facing the paper web in the form of an additional, finer screen fabric which forms drainage channels together with the support belt the upper side of the top layer which lies against the paper web extends to the underside of the support belt facing away from the paper web, the open volume of the drainage belt being selected such that the water absorption capacity is at least equal to the amount of water to be absorbed in the press nip.
  • Such a drainage belt is known from US-A-3 214 326.
  • the drainage belts generally used for presses in the wet press section of a paper machine are referred to as felts, although they have only one layer of felt on the side of a screen fabric facing the paper web. It is known (EP-A-0 089 032) to design this screen fabric in multiple layers, for example to provide a coarse, single-layer screen fabric on the running side facing away from the paper web, on which lies a much finer, double-layer screen fabric which carries the felt layer. In addition to its function as a carrying belt, the screen fabric also has the task of absorbing the water squeezed out of the paper web in the press nip and contributing to an even pressure load on the paper web in the press nip.
  • the felt layer has the task of preventing markings on the paper web and, above all in the manner of a non-return valve, preventing the entry of the material, despite the cranking of the weft threads, which protrude beyond the area defined by the warp threads on the side of the double-layer screen fabric facing the paper web to allow the paper web to squeeze out water into the screen fabric, but to prevent this water from being sucked up again by the paper web as soon as it leaves the press nip.
  • the barrier layer is either generated by roughening the screen fabric forming the base layer, which has a cavity volume sufficient to accommodate the water squeezed out of the paper web and whose threads consist of textured yarn, staple yarn or a yarn made of multifilament or textured monofilament threads, or of a fine sieve fabric is formed on the side facing the paper web, which is connected to the base fabric by means of warp threads.
  • This fine screen fabric consists of multifilament threads.
  • this fine fabric In order to be able to fulfill the barrier function, this fine fabric must have a different permeability to water, depending on whether the water squeezed out of the paper web in the nip should pass through and be absorbed by the base layer or a backflow into the paper web when it emerges from the nip should be prevented as much as possible.
  • Such different permeability requires a considerable deformability of the screen fabric forming the barrier layer and the drainage channels formed by it.
  • the high pressure prevailing in the nip also leads to a deformation of the barrier layer in the sense of a reduction in permeability, to which the multifilament threads also contribute.
  • a reduced permeability in the nip and an increasing permeability when leaving the nip of the embodiment with a barrier layer consisting of a fine screen fabric therefore lead to a lower dewatering performance of such a dewatering belt compared to the conventional felts.
  • Another known drainage belt for use instead of the known press felts in the wet presses of the press section of a paper machine consists of a 2-ply support belt, on the side facing the paper web, a 1-ply screen fabric made of multifilaments and monofilament threads and because of the very fine threads and a dense weave has a very smooth surface.
  • This drainage belt is compressible because it tends to expand rapidly as it exits a press nip. The negative pressure generated by this expansion is said to increase the drainage capacity.
  • this drainage belt is also not superior to the known press felts.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a dewatering belt for presses in the wet end of a paper machine, which makes it possible to increase the dewatering performance of a wet press. This problem is solved by a drainage belt with the features of claim 1.
  • Such a drainage belt in the press nip does not lose its openness under the pressure prevailing here, nor does it lose its open volume in which the top layer is involved.
  • the flow resistance that the top layer is made of opposed to the paper web squeezed out in the nip is therefore much smaller than with the known felts and the known dewatering belt. For this reason, the pressure in the nip can be reduced, which leads to cheaper presses.
  • the ability to retain the absorbed water is greater, corresponding to a funnel that opens towards the underside of the support belt, and thus the rewetting of the paper web is lower than in the known solutions. It can therefore also be prevented that a critical hydraulic pressure leading to the destruction of the paper web can build up in the press nip.
  • the stored water can easily be removed again by centrifugal force when deflecting around a roller or by suction.
  • top layer lies directly on the paper web, thanks to the monoplan design of the top layer the latter is not marked.
  • a monoplan design is understood here to mean that on the side carrying the paper web, the offsets of the threads of one thread system define the same area as the threads of the other thread system, which runs transverse to the threads forming the offsets, so that the offsets do not form any protruding elevations .
  • the dewatering belt according to the invention contributes to an improvement in sheet formation as it passes through the wet press section, that is to say after the paper web has left the forming area in the wire section.
  • the uniform dewatering performance over the entire bandwidth prevents fluctuations in the basis weight of the paper web.
  • the printability of the paper web is evened out, that is to say the properties of the two sides of the paper web that are essential for the printability are brought closer to one another.
  • the support band and / or the top layer are constructed in multiple layers.
  • the permeability can be adapted even better to the requirements than with a single-layer Training of the top layer and the support band.
  • its transverse threads lie exactly above one another, in the case of a multi-layer design of the support band, its transverse threads.
  • top layer with the support band is possible in various ways.
  • the top layer and the support band are preferably woven together.
  • the dewatering belt is made up of four cross-thread layers arranged one above the other, of which the uppermost cross-thread layer coming into contact with the paper web is 1, the cross-thread layer directly below this is 2, the cross-thread layer below the latter layer is 3 and the the bottom transverse thread layer forming the running side of the drainage belt is designated by 4.
  • the uppermost cross thread layer has 28 cross threads per cm with a diameter of 0.15 mm.
  • the uppermost transverse thread layer 1 and the underlying transverse thread layer 2, which can also be referred to as the first intermediate layer, are connected to each other by a first longitudinal thread system 5, which consists of 72 longitudinal threads with a diameter of 0.15 mm.
  • the course of the threads of this first longitudinal thread system 5 can be seen from the drawing.
  • Two adjacent threads of the uppermost transverse thread layer 1 are then integrated Cross threads between the top layer 1 and the first intermediate layer 2 therethrough.
  • the diameter of the transverse threads of the uppermost transverse thread layer 1 is less than the diameter of the threads of the transverse thread layer 2, the increased integration of the longitudinal threads in the uppermost transverse thread layer 1 reduces their openness to the transverse thread layer 2.
  • the uppermost transverse thread layer 1 and the transverse thread layer 2 connected to it by the first longitudinal thread system 5 have an open space for water storage of approximately 50% of their volume.
  • the integral permeability of both layers, measured by the air passage, is 1420 l / ms at a vacuum of 10 mm WS.
  • the transverse threads of the lowermost transverse thread layer 4 are arranged exactly below those of the second intermediate layer, so that the lowest transverse thread layer 4 also has 14 transverse threads per cm. However, the thread diameter here is 0.35 mm.
  • the transverse thread layer 3 and the lowermost transverse thread layer 4, which together form the support band, are connected to one another by a second longitudinal thread system 6, which has 35 longitudinal threads per cm, the thread diameter being 0.27 mm.
  • the integration of the threads of the second intermediate layer and that of the lowermost transverse thread layer 4 by the second longitudinal thread system 6 is, as the figure shows, carried out in the same way as in the uppermost transverse thread layer 1 and the transverse thread layer 2.
  • the longitudinal thread system 6 binds more strongly into the Cross thread layer 3, which has the consequence that the fabric opens from the second intermediate layer to the lowest cross thread layer 4 also in the support band.
  • the fabric part of the dewatering belt consisting of the transverse thread layer 3 and the lowest transverse thread layer 4 has an integral, open sieve space of 60% with a total permeability of 2500 l / ms.
  • All four transverse thread layers 1 to 4 are connected to one another along their longitudinal edge by a third longitudinal thread system (not shown for reasons of clarity) with a small number of threads.
  • This third longitudinal thread system consists of twisted thread, which has a diameter of 0.15 mm.
  • the drainage tape formed in the above manner has a total thickness of 1.6 mm. Of these, 0.25 mm are assigned to the top transverse thread layer 1, 0.30 mm to the first intermediate layer immediately below, 0.45 mm to the second intermediate layer and 0.6 mm to the lowest transverse thread layer.
  • the openness of the drainage belt is well over 50% and it is almost incompressible.
