Definitions
- the present invention relates to the connection of two sections of a composite wiping strip, and in particular of a wet-end felt for stationery.
- Such a strip comprises on the one hand a canvas of woven, stiff and mechanically resistant threads, to withstand the tensioning forces of the strip and maintain intervals of passages for a liquid to be expelled, and on the other hand a sheet made up of fibers. fine and flexible intertwined to form a soft surface allowing to apply pressure to a deformable sheet to wring it without marking it.
- this strip is installed on the rollers in open form but must then be looped over itself before its continuous use, or if sections of separate strips must succeed one another, the problem arises the connection of two sections. It can be resolved in a known manner with respect to the canvas. And it is also known to stop the plies of flexible fibers, at the two ends to be connected, so as to show, after the connection of the scrim, neither gap between these two plies nor overlap.
- the composite wiping strip two sections of which must be connected
- a stationery felt which is advantageously manufactured and installed in the form of a strip having two ends, and which is then used, after connection of these ends, in the form of a tight band circulating in a closed loop.
- a felt thus connected can be called "junction felt”.
- the sheet is then transported, still on a felt circulating around rollers, in a drying zone where water is evacuated by evaporation under the action of heat, part of the steam passing through the felt.
- the second section to be connected are cut, over the entire thickness of the sheets and over the entire width of the felt, so that, when the connection of the canvas has been made and when the flap is lowered to cover the connection line of the canvas , the edge of the flap coincides with the edge of the second ply to be connected, that is to say that of the second section of the felt, along a ply connecting line. This avoids any excess or any defect in the ply material in the vicinity of the connection.
- connection line of the plies is disposed behind that of connection of the scrims, with respect to the direction of circulation of the felt in service. It indeed appears desirable that, when the felt passes between two pressure rollers, the force component applied provisionally rearward by these rollers does not risk displacing the free end of the flap towards its attachment to the rest of the first ply , which would form a fold that would mark the sheet of paper. Still for the same purpose, it is indicated that after connecting the canvas and putting the flap in its final position, needling is carried out to fix the flap to the canvas on either side of the connecting line of the canvas. It is also indicated, as an alternative, that the flap can be glued to the canvas.
- the figures in the document above show that the plane of cut and connection of the two layers is inclined relative to the vertical, that is to say that the line of connection of the layers appears more in rear at the upper part of the sheets than at their lower part, and that there is in fact a sheet connection zone whose longitudinal extension appears to be of the order of half the thickness of the sheets.
- the present invention more particularly aims to avoid the damaging effects that may have in service the irregularities of a composite wiping strip, in particular of a stationery felt, in a connection zone between two successive sections of this strip. .
- this strip comprising on the one hand a woven scrim (40) made up of strong and relatively large and stiff threads to withstand the forces applied to the strip parallel to its surface and to maintain intervals for easy circulation of a liquid even in the presence of a spin pressure perpendicular to this surface,
- This strip further comprising a ply (42) made of relatively fine and flexible fibers to form a soft and permeable support surface even in the presence of said spin pressure, the cohesion of this ply and its attachment to the canvas being obtained by needling, the surface density of the ply being the same for these two sections,
- each of said first and second (50) layers is first cut so that the edges of these two layers can come into coincidence if each said flap was lowered (52, 78, 80), then each of the ends of the sheet thus formed is combed by teeth driven into the thickness of the sheet and moving longitudinally towards the free end of this sheet, this combing being started on an extreme section of the ply of length at least equal to the thickness of this section and continued to lengthen the ply by at least this thickness, so as to create or lengthen said ply connection zone and to locally remove at least partially the entanglement of the fibers of these sections, to allow said final needling to exert its action under conditions similar to those of the formation and fixing of said first and second plies, and thus to confer more homogeneous compressibility on said continuous ply resulting from this final needling.
- each of said first and second plies is constituted by the superposition of several layers (70, 72, 74, 76) occupying a succession of levels and fixed the to each other by needling, this process being characterized by the fact that during the said step of preparing the plies, these layers are cut according to the connecting lines of the layers distributed longitudinally over the said zone for connecting the plies, the needling of these layers the one on the other having been previously omitted in the connection area.
- Figure 1 shows the wet end of a stationery making newsprint, the direction of view being parallel to the axes of the spin rollers.
- Figures 2, 3, 4 and 5 show side views of the connection area of a wet-end felt used in the stationery of Figure 1, in successive stages of the first embodiment of the method according to the invention , to connect two end sections of this felt previously engaged on the rollers of Figure 1, to form a felt closed loop of this figure.
- Figures 6 and 7 show side and partial top views, respectively, of a needling apparatus for effecting the final sharpening of the method according to the invention.
- Figures 8, 9 and 10 show views similar to those of Figures 2, 3, 4 and 5, but according to the second previously mentioned embodiment of the invention.
- a stationery producing newspaper paper has the following provisions:
- a permeable fabric 2 circulates on rollers such as 4 and 6 after having taken liquid paper pulp from which the water has flowed. It thus forms an inconsistent sheet 8 whose dry matter content is of the order of 20% and which arrives according to arrow 10.
- a felt of wet part 12 It is taken from this canvas by a felt of wet part 12, by means of a roller 14.
- a first pair of pressure rollers 16, 18 ensures a first spin.
- a second wet-end felt 20 separates this sheet from the roller 18.
- a second pair of rollers 22, 24 provides a second spin.
- the sheet is driven by the roller 24, of polished granite, to a third pressing zone formed by this roller and a roller 26 on which a third felt 28 circulates.
- rollers 30, 32, 34 direct the sheet 8, along an arrow 36, to a drying zone, not shown.
- the speed of circulation can go up to 2000 meters per minute.
- the pressures ensuring the spin can go up to 1100 kN per centimeter of width of the felt between rollers whose diameter can be between 0.4 and 2 m approximately. They cannot be reduced under penalty of reducing the efficiency of the spin and increasing the energy consumption in the drying zone which follows it. Under these conditions, any appreciable variation in thickness of the felt causes an indelible mark on the sheet 8.
- This felt is delivered to the stationery and installed around the rollers in the form of an open strip of the desired length. This length is not limited by the dimensions of the weaving looms that make the canvas. These two felt end sections are then connected to form a closed loop which is subsequently tensioned.
- a first of these sections of felt comprises a first canvas 44 and a first ply 46, the second section of felt comprising a second canvas 48, and a second ply 50.
- a flap 52 is formed at the end of the first ply, omitting the needling of the ply on the canvas over the corresponding length.
- each of the two scrims was formed with loops such as 54 distributed along the width of the felt with their centers arranged along a scaffold connection line.
- the flap 52 is raised, their two connecting lines are brought into coincidence, the loops of one section passing between those of the other, and a connecting rod 56 is introduced into all these loops according to the common connection line.
- This rod will generally be stiffer than the wide threads of the canvas. Its diameter is for example 1 mm.
- the weaving of the canvas and this rod are chosen so that the thickness of the canvas is little changed in the connection area.
- Other known connection methods can be used, for example in the case where the canvas consists of propellers whose axes are arranged along its width, which follow one another for a long time.
- the connecting rod can be identical to these stiff wires.
- the flap 52 and the end of the second ply 50 are cut, for example with a razor blade, possibly going slightly forwards while going down, according to two cutting planes parallel to the width of the felt and such that, if the flap is lowered, the two cutting planes, and therefore the two edges of the two plies in these planes, come into coincidence.
- the flap is lowered and pressed on the combed end of the second sheet.
- FIGS. 5, 6 and 7. The above-mentioned final needling operation is shown in FIGS. 5, 6 and 7. It is carried out using a portable jigsaw 62 on the market. In place of the saw blade of this apparatus, a board 64 of 1.5 x 2.5 cm has been mounted in which two rows of three vertical needles such as 66 projecting down have been fixed. The vertical reciprocating movement has, for example, an amplitude of 3 cm and the needles in the high position have their tips about 1 cm above the continuous ply being formed. These needles are of the type usually used for needling, for example with a triangular section and edges deformed locally to form barbs which entrain the fibers in their vertical movement to entangle them.
- This needling is carried out over the entire connection zone until a thickness and compressibility of the ply are approximately equal to those of the ply on either side over the whole of this zone. This thickness and compressibility vary together and can be properly appreciated by passing your fingers over and next to this area.
- the guide plate 68 of the device 62 ensures the verticality of the needling.
- the final needling with three distinct functions one is the fixing of the flap to the canvas, the other is the restoration of the mechanical continuity of the web with respect to horizontal forces, and the third is the standardization of the vertical compressibility of the sheet.
- the ply overlap zone is shown in ZR, the longitudinal extension of this overlap zone being at least twice the thickness of the ply.
- the sheet comprises several layers, each of which is formed from several needled webs one on the other. These layers are laid on the canvas previously described. The number of these layers is typically two as shown, but may be three. There are more precisely two first layers of first and second level 70 and 72 respectively, above the first canvas 44, and two second layers of first and second level 74 and 76 respectively, above the second canvas 48.
- the needling of the first two layers 70 and 72 has been omitted in an area which should form with these two layers two first and second level flaps 78 and 80, which allow access to the scrim connection line.
- the needling of the second second level layer 76 has also been omitted to allow this layer to be raised to cut it without cutting the second first level layer.
- connection of the two sections of canvas 44 and 48 is carried out as in the first embodiment described above.
- the layers are cut at each level (Fig. 9) so that after lowering the flaps the apparent continuity of each layer is ensured, that is to say so that at each level the edge of the first layer comes coincidence with that of the second layer.
- the two cutting lines that is to say the connecting lines of layers of the two levels are chosen at the ends of the envisaged connection zone, (or in the vicinity if the preferred arrangement is adopted below).
- the connecting line of the intermediate level would be made in the middle of this area.
- combing is carried out at each level as previously indicated in the first embodiment of the invention, which lengthens the connection area.
- the present invention is particularly advantageous in the case of the production of cartons.
- a type of stationery felt used in this case is said to be "long taker” (in English “long bottom felt” or “long top felt”).
- the formation of the flap by razor cutting for example, is difficult to carry out and compromises the service life or even the quality of service of the felt, this because this flap has a fiber density too low to hold (for keep its shape and dimensions).
- the invention makes it possible to use a junction felt.
- the invention also appears particularly useful in the case of the manufacture of cotton wool (very light sheet: 15 to 30 g / m 2 ) because in this case the discontinuity, even moderate, brought about by a cut in the snap of a Junction felt can create a relatively large variation in the consistency of the sheet produced.
- the present invention allows in this case the use of a junction felt as a "lifter, boarder and frictionneur".

Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne le raccordement de deux tronçons d'une bande d'essorage composite, et notamment d'un feutre de partie humide de papeterie.The present invention relates to the connection of two sections of a composite wiping strip, and in particular of a wet-end felt for stationery.
Une telle bande comporte d'une part un canevas de fils tissés, raides et mécaniquement résistants, pour supporter les efforts de tension de la bande et maintenir des intervalles de passages pour un liquide à expulser, et d'autre part une nappe constituée de fibres fines et souples entremêlées pour former une surface douce permettant d'appliquer une pression sur une feuille déformable pour l'essorer sans la marquer.Such a strip comprises on the one hand a canvas of woven, stiff and mechanically resistant threads, to withstand the tensioning forces of the strip and maintain intervals of passages for a liquid to be expelled, and on the other hand a sheet made up of fibers. fine and flexible intertwined to form a soft surface allowing to apply pressure to a deformable sheet to wring it without marking it.
Si, pour faciliter sa fabrication ou son installation, cette bande est installée sur les rouleaux sous forme ouverte mais doit être ensuite bouclée sur elle même avant sa mise en service continu, ou si des tronçons de bandes distinctes doivent se succéder, le problème se pose du raccordement de deux tronçons. Il peut être résolu de manière connue en ce qui concerne le canevas. Et il est aussi connu d'arrêter les nappes de fibres souples, aux deux extrémités à raccorder, de manière à ne faire apparaître, après le raccordement des canevas, ni intervalle entre ces deux nappes ni recouvrement.If, to facilitate its manufacture or installation, this strip is installed on the rollers in open form but must then be looped over itself before its continuous use, or if sections of separate strips must succeed one another, the problem arises the connection of two sections. It can be resolved in a known manner with respect to the canvas. And it is also known to stop the plies of flexible fibers, at the two ends to be connected, so as to show, after the connection of the scrim, neither gap between these two plies nor overlap.
La présente invention a notamment pour but d'obtenir une bonne continuité entre deux telles nappes après le raccordement des canevas.The object of the present invention is in particular to obtain good continuity between two such plies after the connection of the scrims.
Elle s'applique plus particulièrement au cas où la bande d'essorage composite dont deux tronçons doivent être raccordés est un feutre de papeterie, qui est avantageusement fabriqué et installé sous forme d'une bande présentant deux extrémités, et qui est utilisé ensuite, après raccordement de ces extrémités, sous la forme d'une bande tendue circulant en boucle fermée. Un feutre ainsi raccordé peut être appelé "feutre à jonction".It applies more particularly to the case where the composite wiping strip, two sections of which must be connected, is a stationery felt, which is advantageously manufactured and installed in the form of a strip having two ends, and which is then used, after connection of these ends, in the form of a tight band circulating in a closed loop. A felt thus connected can be called "junction felt".
Dans une papeterie la pâte à papier quasi liquide est prélevée par une toile perméable circulant en boucle fermée et appelée "toile de formation". Sur cette toile l'eau s'écoule de la pâte, qui forme alors une feuille présentant une concentration de 20% environ en matière sèche (essentiellement fibres de cellulose). Cette feuille passe ensuite entre des rouleaux d'essorage avec interposition de feutres "de partie humide". La pression fait sortir l'eau de la feuille et cette eau s'écoule à travers les interstices de ces feutres, qui ne doivent donc pas s'écraser sous la pression utilisée. On obtient ains une teneur de la feuille en matière sèche de par exemple 45%.In a stationery the almost liquid paper pulp is taken up by a permeable fabric circulating in closed loop and called "training fabric". On this canvas water flows from the paste, which then forms a sheet having a concentration of about 20% in dry matter (mainly cellulose fibers). This sheet then passes between spin rollers with the interposition of "wet end" felts. The pressure brings the water out of the sheet and this water flows through the interstices of these felts, which therefore must not be crushed under the pressure used. A dry matter content of the sheet is thus obtained, for example 45%.
La feuille est ensuite transportée, toujours sur un feutre circulant autour de rouleaux, dans une zone de séchage ou de l'eau est évacuée par évaporation sous l'action de la chaleur, une partie de la vapeur passant à travers le feutre.The sheet is then transported, still on a felt circulating around rollers, in a drying zone where water is evacuated by evaporation under the action of heat, part of the steam passing through the felt.
Il est depuis longtemps connu d'utiliser des feutres à jonction dans la zone de séchage car d'une part la feuille en cours de séchage est suffisamment résistante pour ne pas être facilement marquée de manière irréversible par son passage contre irrégularité du feutre constituée par la zone de jonction, et d'autre part les pressions appliquées par les rouleaux sont relativement faibles, puisqu'elles ne sont pas destinées à réaliser un essorage.It has long been known to use felts with a junction in the drying zone because on the one hand the sheet being dried is strong enough not to be easily irreversibly marked by its passage against the irregularity of the felt constituted by the junction area, and on the other hand the pressures applied by the rollers are relatively low, since they are not intended to perform a spin.
Le risque d'un tel marquage est par contre beaucoup plus grand dans la "partie humide" de la papeterie car le papier y est plus mou et les pressions plus fortes. C'est pourquoi on a longtemps utilisé dans cette zone des feutres sans jonction. La mise en place de ces derniers présentait pourtant des difficultés telles que, pour les minimiser, on choisissait parfois d'employer des feutres moins lourds et moins raides qu'il n'aurait convenu pour la fabrication du papier. De plus la fabrication du feutre sous la forme tubulaire empêchait de donner à la boucle une longueur supérieure au double de la largeur du métier qui tissait le canevas, ce qui était parfois gênant.On the other hand, the risk of such marking is much greater in the "wet part" of the stationery because the paper is softer there and the pressures are stronger. This is why we have long used felts in this area without joining. The installation of these last presented however difficulties such that, to minimize them, one sometimes chose to use felt lighter and less stiff than it would have been suitable for the manufacture of paper. In addition, the manufacture of the felt in the tubular form prevented the loop from being given a length greater than twice the width of the loom which wove the canvas, which was sometimes troublesome.
On a donc cherché à utiliser des feutres à jonction dans cette partie aussi, et on s'est attaché à ne créer ni surépaisseur sensibles ni sous-épaisseur du feutre dans la zone de raccordement. On connait des procédés pour réaliser le raccordement des deux canevas en respectant cette condition. Par exemple, dans le cas d'un canevas formé par tissage classique de fils en long entrecroisés avec des fils en large, les extrémités des fils en long sont pourvus, au tissage ou après celui-ci, de boucles formant des saillies longitudinales à partir de l'extrémité de chaque canevas. Ces boucles sont répar- fies sur la largeur du canevas. Au raccordement les boucles d'un canevas s'intercalent entre les boucles de l'autre, et on fait passer un jonc transversal à travers toutes ces boucles. Ce jonc présente une épaisseur comparable à celle des fils en largeur de l'ensemble du canevas.We have therefore sought to use junction felts in this part too, and we have endeavored not to create any appreciable excess thickness or under-thickness of the felt in the connection zone. Methods are known for making the connection of the two scrims while respecting this condition. For example, in the case of a scrim formed by conventional weaving of long threads intertwined with wide threads, the ends of the long threads are provided, at weaving or after this, with loops forming longitudinal projections from from the end of each canvas. These loops are distributed across the width of the canvas. At the connection, the loops of one canvas are inserted between the loops of the other, and a transverse rod is passed through all these loops. This rod has a thickness comparable to that of the son in width of the entire canvas.
D'autres procédés de raccordement connus peuvent être utilisés avec des types différents de canevas.Other known connection methods can be used with different types of scrim.
Quelque soit le procédé utilisé pour le raccordement des canevas il apparaissait essentiel, pour réaliser un feutre à jonction utilisable comme feutre de partie humide, d'assurer aussi sans irrégularité sensible le raccordement des nappes de fibres souples. Un procédé conçu précisément pour assurer un tel raccordement fait l'objet du document de brevet EP-A -0 108 733 (Nordiskafilt AB). Ce procédé peut être décrit en supposant que la longueur et la largeur du feutre sont horizontales et son épaisseur verticale, la nappe dont le raccordement est décrit étant au-dessus du canevas. La cohésion interne de cette nappe et son accrochage au canevas plus raide sont classiquement réalisés par aiguilletage. Selon ce procédé, la nappe de fibres souples, est prolongée, à la fabrication d'un premier des deux tronçons du feutre à raccorder, au-delà de la ligne de raccordement futur des canevas. Non seulement son accrochage au canevas ne peut évidemment pas être réalisé à ce moment dans la zone de cette nappe au-delà de cette ligne de raccordement, mais il est aussi omis, ou supprimé, sur une zone en deça de cette ligne. On réalise ainsi un rabat souple qui peut être relevé pour l'éloigner du canevas et permettre les opérations de raccordement des canevas. Ce rabat s'étend longitudinalement de part et d'autre de la ligne de raccordement des canevas. L'extrémité libre de ce rabat et la nappe surWhatever the process used for the connection of the scrim, it appeared essential, to make a felt with junction usable as felt of wet part, to also ensure without appreciable irregularity the connection of the plies of flexible fibers. A process designed precisely to ensure such a connection is the subject of patent document EP-A -0 108 733 (Nordiskafilt AB). This process can be described by assuming that the length and width of the felt are horizontal and its thickness vertical, the web whose connection is described being above the canvas. The internal cohesion of this sheet and its attachment to the stiffer canvas are conventionally achieved by needling. According to this method, the sheet of flexible fibers is extended, during the manufacture of a first of the two sections of the felt to be connected, beyond the future connection line of the scrims. Obviously, not only can it not be attached to the canvas at this time in the area of this sheet beyond this connection line, but it is also omitted, or deleted, in an area below this line. A flexible flap is thus produced which can be raised to move it away from the canvas and allow the operations of connecting the canvas. This flap extends longitudinally on either side of the connecting line of the canvas. The free end of this flap and the tablecloth on
le deuxième tronçon à raccorder sont coupées, sur toute l'épaisseur des nappes et sur toute la largeur du feutre, de manière que, lorsque le raccordement des canevas a été effectué et lorsqu'on abaisse le rabat pour recouvrir la ligne de raccordement des canevas, la tranche- du rabat vienne coincider avec la tranche de la deuxième nappe à raccorder, c'est-à-dire celle du deuxième tronçon du feutre, selon une ligne de raccordement de nappes. On évite ainsi tout excès ou tout défaut de matière de nappe au voisinage du raccordement.the second section to be connected are cut, over the entire thickness of the sheets and over the entire width of the felt, so that, when the connection of the canvas has been made and when the flap is lowered to cover the connection line of the canvas , the edge of the flap coincides with the edge of the second ply to be connected, that is to say that of the second section of the felt, along a ply connecting line. This avoids any excess or any defect in the ply material in the vicinity of the connection.
L'inventeur de ce procédé connu indique que la ligne de raccordement des nappes est disposée en arrière de celle de raccordement des canevas, par rapport au sens de circulation du feutre en service. Il apparâit en effet souhaitable que, lorsque le feutre passera entre deux rouleaux de pression, la composante de force appliquée provisoirement vers l'arrière par ces rouleaux ne risque pas de déplacer l'extrémité libre du rabat vers son attache au reste de la première nappe, ce qui formerait un pli qui marquerait la feuille de papier. Toujours dans le même but il est indiqué qu'après le raccordement des canevas et la mise du rabat dans sa position définitive, on réalise un aiguilletage pour fixer le rabat au canevas de part et d'autre de la ligne de raccordement des canevas. Il est aussi indiqué, à titre al- tematif, que le rabat peut être collé au canevas. Apparemment toujours dans le même but les figures du document ci-dessus montrent que le plan de coupe et de raccordement des deux nappes est incliné par rapport à la verticale, c'est-à-dire que la ligne de raccordement des nappes apparait plus en arrière à la partie supérieure des nappes qu'à leur partie inférieure, et qu'il y a en fait une zone de raccordement de nappe dont l'extension longitudinale apparaît être de l'ordre de la moitié de l'épaisseur des nappes.The inventor of this known method indicates that the connection line of the plies is disposed behind that of connection of the scrims, with respect to the direction of circulation of the felt in service. It indeed appears desirable that, when the felt passes between two pressure rollers, the force component applied provisionally rearward by these rollers does not risk displacing the free end of the flap towards its attachment to the rest of the first ply , which would form a fold that would mark the sheet of paper. Still for the same purpose, it is indicated that after connecting the canvas and putting the flap in its final position, needling is carried out to fix the flap to the canvas on either side of the connecting line of the canvas. It is also indicated, as an alternative, that the flap can be glued to the canvas. Apparently always for the same purpose, the figures in the document above show that the plane of cut and connection of the two layers is inclined relative to the vertical, that is to say that the line of connection of the layers appears more in rear at the upper part of the sheets than at their lower part, and that there is in fact a sheet connection zone whose longitudinal extension appears to be of the order of half the thickness of the sheets.
Quoique ces diverses précautions soient utiles et puissent paraitre à l'homme du métier devoir résoudre entièrement le problème, leur effet reste imparfait, c'est-à-dire que certaines feuilles de papier ou analogue produites avec l'aide d'un tel feutre reçoivent une marque due au raccordement des extrémités du feutre de partie humide ainsi constitué.Although these various precautions are useful and may seem to the skilled person to resolve the problem entirely, their effect remains imperfect, that is to say that certain sheets of paper or the like produced with the help of such a felt receive a mark due to the connection of the ends of the felt of wet part thus constituted.
La présente invention a plus particulièrement pour but d'éviter les effets dommageables que peuvent avoir en service les irrégularités d'une bande d'essorage composite, notamment d'un feutre de papeterie, dans une zone de raccordement entre deux tronçons successifs de cette bande.The present invention more particularly aims to avoid the damaging effects that may have in service the irregularities of a composite wiping strip, in particular of a stationery felt, in a connection zone between two successive sections of this strip. .
Elle a pour objet un zone de raccordement, -cette bande comportant d'une part un canevas tissé (40) constitué de fils résistants et relativement gros et raides pour supporter les efforts appliqués à la bande parallèlement à sa surface et pour maintenir des intervalles pour la circulation facile d'un liquide même en présence d'une pression d'essorage perpendiculaire à cette surface,It relates to a connection zone, this strip comprising on the one hand a woven scrim (40) made up of strong and relatively large and stiff threads to withstand the forces applied to the strip parallel to its surface and to maintain intervals for easy circulation of a liquid even in the presence of a spin pressure perpendicular to this surface,
- cette bande comportant d'autre part une nappe (42) constituée de fibres relativement fines et souples pour constituer une surface d'appui douce et perméable même en présence de ladite pression d'essorage, la cohésion de cette nappe et son accrochage au canevas étant obtenue par aiguilletage, la densité surfacique de nappe étant la même pour ces deux tronçons,- This strip further comprising a ply (42) made of relatively fine and flexible fibers to form a soft and permeable support surface even in the presence of said spin pressure, the cohesion of this ply and its attachment to the canvas being obtained by needling, the surface density of the ply being the same for these two sections,
- ce procédé comportant les étapes suivantes :
- - réalisation d'un premier et d'un deuxième tronçons de bande à raccorder, avec un premier (44) et un deuxième (48) canevas pourvus de moyens de raccordement mutuel (54) à leurs extrémités selon une ligne de raccordement de canevas, et avec une première (46) et une deuxième (50) nappes aiguilletées sur ces canevas, respectivement, un tronçon de longueur extrême d'au moins la première nappe étant séparé de son canevas pour former un rabat (52) qui peut être soulevé pour dégager la ligne de raccordement des canevas, -raccordement des deux canevas (44, 48) selon cette ligne de raccordement, chaque dit rabat (52) étant soulevé,
- - abaissement de chaque dit rabat pour couvrir la ligne de raccordement de canevas,
- - les extrémités des deux dites nappes ayant été préparées, au cours d'une étape antérieure oe préparation, pour que, après cet abaissement, la densité surfacique de matière de nappe soit constante dans la zone de raccordement et égale à celle des nappes des deux dits tronçons à distance dans cette zone, avec recouvrement de ces deux nappes sur une zone de raccordement de nappes présentant une extension longitudinale, - et aiguilletage final d'un rabat sur le canevas sous-jacent pour l'y fixer,
- - ce procédé étant caractérisé par le fait que l'extension longitudinale de ladite zone de raccordement de nappes (ZR) est au moins égale au double de l'épaisseur de ces nappes, ladite étape d'aiguilletage final du rabat étant effectuée également dans cette zone de raccordement de nappes, de manière à donner une cohésion propre à une nappe continue (42) constituée par lesdites première et deuxième nappes, et à éviter une variation locale de la compressibilité de la nappe.
- - production of a first and a second strip section to be connected, with a first (44) and a second (48) canvas provided with mutual connection means (54) at their ends along a canvas connection line, and with a first (46) and a second (50) needled plies on these scrims, respectively, a section of extreme length of at least the first ply being separated from its scrim to form a flap (52) which can be lifted to clear the connecting line of the scrims, connection of the two scrims (44, 48) along this connecting line, each said flap (52) being raised,

Les numéros de référence entre parenthèses renvoient à titre d'exemple aux figures ci-jointes. Selon la présente invention il est de plus apparu avantageux d'adopter, au moins dans certains cas, les dispositions plus particulières suivantes :The reference numbers in parentheses refer by way of example to the attached figures. According to the present invention, it has also appeared advantageous to adopt, at least in certain cases, the following more specific provisions:
- Selon un premier mode de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, lors de ladite étape de préparation des nappes, chacune desdites première et deuxième (50) nappes est d'abord coupée de manière que les tranches de ces deux nappes puissent venir en coïncidence si on abaissait chaque dit rabat (52, 78, 80), puis chacune des extrémités de nappe ainsi formées subit un peignage par des dents enfoncées dans l'épaisseur de la nappe et se déplaçant longitudinalement vers l'extrémité libre de cette nappe, ce peignage étant commencé sur un tronçon extrême de la nappe de longueur au moins égale à l'épaisseur de ce tronçon et continué pour allonger la nappe d'au moins cette épaisseur, de manière à créer ou à allonger ladite zone de raccordement de nappes et à faire disparaître localement au moins partiellement l'enchevêtrement des fibres de ces tronçons, pour permettre audit aiguilletage final d'exercer son ac- fion dans des conditions analogues à celles de la formation et de la fixation desdites première et deuxième nappes, et pour conférer ainsi une compressibilité plus homogène à ladite nappe continue résultant de cet aiguilletage final.- According to a first embodiment of the invention, during said step of preparing the layers, each of said first and second (50) layers is first cut so that the edges of these two layers can come into coincidence if each said flap was lowered (52, 78, 80), then each of the ends of the sheet thus formed is combed by teeth driven into the thickness of the sheet and moving longitudinally towards the free end of this sheet, this combing being started on an extreme section of the ply of length at least equal to the thickness of this section and continued to lengthen the ply by at least this thickness, so as to create or lengthen said ply connection zone and to locally remove at least partially the entanglement of the fibers of these sections, to allow said final needling to exert its action under conditions similar to those of the formation and fixing of said first and second plies, and thus to confer more homogeneous compressibility on said continuous ply resulting from this final needling.
- Selon un deuxième mode de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, éventuellement complémentaire du premier, chacune desdites première et deuxième nappes est constitué par la superposition de plusieurs couches (70, 72, 74, 76) occupant une succession de niveaux et fixées les unes aux autres par aiguilletage, ce procédé étant caractérisé par le fait lors de ladite étape de préparation des nappes, ces couches sont coupées selon des lignes de raccordement de couches réparties longitudinalement sur ladite zone de raccordement de nappes, l'aiguilletage de ces couches les unes sur les autres ayant été préalablement omis dans la zone de raccordement.- According to a second embodiment of the invention, possibly complementary to the first, each of said first and second plies is constituted by the superposition of several layers (70, 72, 74, 76) occupying a succession of levels and fixed the to each other by needling, this process being characterized by the fact that during the said step of preparing the plies, these layers are cut according to the connecting lines of the layers distributed longitudinally over the said zone for connecting the plies, the needling of these layers the one on the other having been previously omitted in the connection area.
A l'aide des figures schématiques ci-jointes on va décrire plus particulièrement ci-après, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, comment l'invention peut être mise en oeuvre. Il doit être compris que les éléments décrits et représentés peuvent, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, être remplacés par d'autres éléments assurant les mêmes fonctions techniques. Lorsqu'un même élément est représenté sur plusieurs figures il y est désigné par le même signe de référence.With the aid of the attached diagrammatic figures, a description will be given more particularly below, by way of nonlimiting example, of how the invention can be implemented. It should be understood that the elements described and shown can, without departing from the scope of the invention, be replaced by other elements ensuring the same technical functions. When the same element is represented in several figures, it is designated therein by the same reference sign.
La figure 1 représente la partie humide d'une papeterie fabriquant du papier de journal, la direction de vue étant parallèle aux axes des rouleaux d'essorage.Figure 1 shows the wet end of a stationery making newsprint, the direction of view being parallel to the axes of the spin rollers.
Les figures 2, 3, 4 et 5 représentent des vues de côté de la zone de raccordement d'un feutre de partie humide utilisé dans la papeterie de la figure 1, à des étapes successives du premier mode de réalisation du procédé selon l'invention, pour raccorder deux tronçons extrêmes de ce feutre préalablement engagé sur les rouleaux de la figure 1, en vue de constituer un feutre en boucle fermée de cette figure.Figures 2, 3, 4 and 5 show side views of the connection area of a wet-end felt used in the stationery of Figure 1, in successive stages of the first embodiment of the method according to the invention , to connect two end sections of this felt previously engaged on the rollers of Figure 1, to form a felt closed loop of this figure.
Les figures 6 et 7 représentent des vues de côté et partielle de dessus, respectivement, d'un appareil d'aiguilletage pour effectuer l'aigulletage final du procédé selon l'invention.Figures 6 and 7 show side and partial top views, respectively, of a needling apparatus for effecting the final sharpening of the method according to the invention.
Les figures 8, 9 et 10 représentent des vues analogues à celles des figures 2, 3, 4 et 5, mais selon le deuxième mode précédemment mentionné de mise en oeuvre de l'invention.Figures 8, 9 and 10 show views similar to those of Figures 2, 3, 4 and 5, but according to the second previously mentioned embodiment of the invention.
Les modes de mise en oeuvre qui vont être décrits plus particulièrement comportent les dispositions précédemment mentionnées selon t'invention.The modes of implementation which will be described more particularly include the provisions previously mentioned according to the invention.
Conformément à la figure 1 une papeterie produisant du papier pour journaux comporte les dispositions suivantes :In accordance with FIG. 1, a stationery producing newspaper paper has the following provisions:
Une toile perméable 2 circule sur des rouleaux tels que 4 et 6 après avoir prélevé de la pâte à papier liquide dont l'eau s'est écoulée. Elle forme ainsi une feuille peu cohérente 8 dont la teneur en matière sèche est de l'ordre de 20% et qui arrive selon la flèche 10.A permeable fabric 2 circulates on rollers such as 4 and 6 after having taken liquid paper pulp from which the water has flowed. It thus forms an inconsistent sheet 8 whose dry matter content is of the order of 20% and which arrives according to arrow 10.
Elle est prélevée sur cette toile par un feutre de partie humide 12, grâce à un rouleau 14. Une première paire de rouleaux de pression 16, 18 assure un premier essorage. Un deuxième feutre de partie humide 20 sépare cette feuille du rouleau 18. Une deuxième paire de rouleaux 22, 24 assure un deuxième essorage. La feuille est entrainée par le rouleau 24, de granit poli, jusqu'à une troisième zone de pressage formée par ce rouleau et un rouleau 26 sur lequel circule un troisième feutre 28.It is taken from this canvas by a felt of wet part 12, by means of a
Sa concentration en matières, sèches est ainsi amenée à 45% environ. Des rouleaux 30, 32, 34, dirigent la feuille 8, selon une flèche 36, vers une zone de séchage non représentée.Its concentration of dry matter is thus brought to around 45%.
La vitesse de circulation peut aller jusqu'à 2000 mètres par minute. Les pressions assurant l'essorage pouvant aller jusqu'à 1100 kN par centimètre de largeur du feutre entre des rouleaux dont le diamètre peut être compris entre 0,4 et 2 m environ. Elles ne peuvent être diminuées sous peine de diminuer l'efficacité de l'essorage et d'augmenter la consommation d'énergie dans la zone de séchage qui la suit. Dans ces conditions toute variation appréciable d'épaisseur du feutre provoque une marque indélébile sur la feuille 8.The speed of circulation can go up to 2000 meters per minute. The pressures ensuring the spin can go up to 1100 kN per centimeter of width of the felt between rollers whose diameter can be between 0.4 and 2 m approximately. They cannot be reduced under penalty of reducing the efficiency of the spin and increasing the energy consumption in the drying zone which follows it. Under these conditions, any appreciable variation in thickness of the felt causes an indelible mark on the sheet 8.
Selon la figure 2 un feutre tel que le feutre 12 qui reçoit une feuille encore très humide et molle comporte un canevas 40 constitué par exemple de fils de polyamide dont le diamètre est de l'ordre de 0,8 mm, et une nappe 42, épaisse par exemple de 3 mm en l'absence de compression, et constituée de fibres aiguilletées sur elles mêmes puis sur le canevas. Ces fibres sont aussi en polyamide et ont par exemple un diamètre inférieur à 0,1 mm. La densité de la nappe est par exemple de 0,230 g/cm3. Ce feutre est livré à la papeterie et installé autour des rouleaux sous la forme d'une bande ouverte de la longueur voulue. Cette longueur n'est pas limitée par les dimensions des métiers à tisser qui fabriquent le canevas. Ces deux tronçons d'extrémité de feutre sont ensuite raccordés pour constituer une boucle fermée qui est ultérieurement mise en tension.According to FIG. 2, a felt such as the felt 12 which receives a sheet which is still very moist and soft comprises a
Par référence au sens de déplacement du feutre en service, un premier de ces tronçons de feutre comporte un premier canevas 44 et une première nappe 46, le deuxième tronçon de feutre comportant un deuxième canevas 48, et une deuxième nappe 50. Un rabat 52 est formé à l'extrémité de la première nappe en omettant sur la longueur correspondante l'aiguilletage de la nappe sur le canevas. Ces nappes sont formées avec une longueur d'abord excédentaire.With reference to the direction of movement of the felt in service, a first of these sections of felt comprises a
L'extrémité de chacun des deux canevas a été formée avec des boucles telles que 54 réparties selon la largeur du feutre avec leurs centres disposés selon une ligne de raccordement de canevas. Pour raccorder les deux canevas, on relève le rabat 52, on amène leurs deux lignes de raccordement en coïncidence, les boucles d'un tronçon passant entre celles de l'autre, et on introduit un jonc de raccordement 56 dans toutes ces boucles selon la ligne de raccordement commune. Ce jonc sera en général plus raide que les fils en large du canevas. Son diamètre est par exemple de 1 mm. Le tissage du canevas et ce jonc sont choisis pour que l'épaisseur du canevas soit peu modifiée dans la zone de raccordement. D'autres modes de raccordement connus peuvent être utilisés, par exemple dans le cas où le canevas est constitué d'hélices dont les axes sont disposés selon sa largeur, qui se succèdent longitu-The end of each of the two scrims was formed with loops such as 54 distributed along the width of the felt with their centers arranged along a scaffold connection line. To connect the two scrims, the
dinalement en s'interpénétrant et qui sont réunies par des fils raides s'étendant parallèlement à leurs axes dans les zones d'interpénétration. Dans ce cas le jonc de raccordement peut être identique à ces fils raides.linearly by interpenetrating and which are joined by stiff wires extending parallel to their axes in the interpenetration zones. In this case, the connecting rod can be identical to these stiff wires.
Des moyens connus sont utilisés pour assurer le blocage mutuel des divers fils du canevas, pour empêcher celui-ci de se défaire.Known means are used to ensure mutual blocking of the various threads of the canvas, to prevent the latter from coming apart.
Lorsque le raccordement des canevas a été effectué, le rabat 52 et l'extrémité de la deuxième nappe 50 sont coupés, par exemple avec une lame de rasoir, éventuellement en allant légèrement vers l'avant en descendant, selon deux plans de coupe parallèles à la largeur du feutre et tels que, si le rabat est abaissé, les deux plans de coupe, et donc les deux tranches des deux nappes dans ces plans, viennent en coïncidence.When the connection of the canvas has been made, the
On effectue ensuite un peignage ou cardage. Comme précédemment mentionné et comme représenté par les flèches 58, à l'aide d'une brosse ou peigne 60, ceci de même manière sur les extrémités du rabat et de la deuxième nappe. On allonge ainsi les deux nappes, en leur donnant une densité qui dé- croit vers l'extrémité libre, et en diminuant en même temps l'enchevêtrement des fibres et la cohésion de la nappe. On obtient ainsi la situation représentée sur la figure 3.Then combing or carding is carried out. As previously mentioned and as shown by the
Conformément à la figure 4 le rabat est abaissé et appuyé sur l'extrémité peignée de la deuxième nappe.According to Figure 4 the flap is lowered and pressed on the combed end of the second sheet.
L'opération d'aiguilletage finale précédemment mentionnée est représentée sur les figures 5, 6 et 7. Elle est réalisée à l'aide d'une scie sauteuse portative 62 du commerce. A la place de la lame de scie de cet appareil on a monté une planchette 64 de 1,5 x 2,5 cm dans laquelle on a fixé deux rangées de trois aiguilles verticales telles que 66 en saillie vers le bas. Le mouvement alternatif vertical a par exemple une amplitude de 3 cm et les aiguilles en position haute ont leurs pointes à environ 1 cm au-dessus de la nappe continue en cours de formation. Ces aiguilles sont du type utilisé habituellement pour un aiguilletage, par exemple avec une section triangulaire et des arêtes déformées localement pour former des barbes qui entrainent les fibres dans leur mouvement vertical pour les enchevêtrer.The above-mentioned final needling operation is shown in FIGS. 5, 6 and 7. It is carried out using a
Cet aiguilletage est effectué sur toute la zone de raccordement jusqu'à obtention sur l'ensemble de cette zone d'une épaisseur et d'une compressibilité de la nappe approximativement égales à celles de la nappe de part et d'autre. Cette épaisseur et cette compressibilité varient ensemble et peuvent être correctement appréciées en passant les doigts sur et à côté de cette zone. Le plateau de guidage 68 de l'appareil 62 assure la verticalité de l'aiguilletage.This needling is carried out over the entire connection zone until a thickness and compressibility of the ply are approximately equal to those of the ply on either side over the whole of this zone. This thickness and compressibility vary together and can be properly appreciated by passing your fingers over and next to this area. The
L'aiguilletage final à trois fonctions distinctes : l'une est la fixation du rabat au canevas, l'autre est le rétablissement de la continuité mécanique de la nappe vis-à-vis des efforts horizontaux, et la troisième est l'uniformisation de la compressibilité verticale de la nappe.The final needling with three distinct functions: one is the fixing of the flap to the canvas, the other is the restoration of the mechanical continuity of the web with respect to horizontal forces, and the third is the standardization of the vertical compressibility of the sheet.
Sur la figure 5 la zone de recouvrement de nappe est représentée en ZR, l'extension longitudinale de cette zone de recouvrement étant égale au moins au double de l'épaisseur de nappe.In FIG. 5, the ply overlap zone is shown in ZR, the longitudinal extension of this overlap zone being at least twice the thickness of the ply.
Selon le deuxième mode de mise en oeuvre de l'invention précédemment mentionné la nappe comporte plusieurs couches dont chacune est formée de plusieurs voiles aiguilletés les uns sur les autres. Ces couches sont posées sur le canevas précédemment décrit. Le nombre de ces couches est typiquement de deux comme représentés, mais peut être de trois. Il y a plus précisément deux premières couches de premier et de deuxième niveau 70 et 72 respectivement, au dessus du premier canevas 44, et deux deuxièmes couches de premier et de deuxième niveaux 74 et 76 respectivement, au-dessus du deuxième canevas 48.According to the second embodiment of the invention previously mentioned, the sheet comprises several layers, each of which is formed from several needled webs one on the other. These layers are laid on the canvas previously described. The number of these layers is typically two as shown, but may be three. There are more precisely two first layers of first and
L'aiguilletage des deux premières couches 70 et 72 a été omis dans une zone devant former avec ces deux couches deux rabats de premier et de deuxième niveau 78 et 80, qui permettent l'accès à la ligne de raccordement de canevas. L'aiguilletage de la deuxième couche de deuxième niveau 76 a de même été omis pour permettre de soulever cette couche pour la couper sans couper la deuxième couche de premier niveau.The needling of the first two
Le raccordement des deux tronçons de canevas 44 et 48 est effectué comme dans le premier mode de mise en oeuvre précédemment décrit.The connection of the two sections of
Les couches sont coupés à chaque niveau (Fig. 9) pour, qu'après abaissement des rabats la continuité apparente de chaques couches soit assurée, c'est-à-dire pour qu'à chaque niveau la tranche de la première couche vienne en coïncidence avec celle de la deuxième couche. Les deux lignes de coupe, c'est-à-dire les lignes de raccordement de couches des deux niveaux sont choisies aux extrémités de la zone de raccordement envisagée, (ou au voisinage si on adopte la disposition préférentielle ci-après).The layers are cut at each level (Fig. 9) so that after lowering the flaps the apparent continuity of each layer is ensured, that is to say so that at each level the edge of the first layer comes coincidence with that of the second layer. The two cutting lines, that is to say the connecting lines of layers of the two levels are chosen at the ends of the envisaged connection zone, (or in the vicinity if the preferred arrangement is adopted below).
Si il y avait par exemple trois niveaux de couches la ligne de raccordement du niveau intermédiaire serait réalisée au milieu de cette zone.If there were, for example, three levels of layers, the connecting line of the intermediate level would be made in the middle of this area.
Selon une disposition préférentielle non représentée, on réalise à chaque niveau un peignage comme précédemment indiqué au premier mode de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, ce qui allonge la zone de raccordement.According to a preferred arrangement not shown, combing is carried out at each level as previously indicated in the first embodiment of the invention, which lengthens the connection area.
Les rabats sont complétement abaissés (Fig.10) et l'on effectue l'aiguilletage final précédemment décrit, qui assure les mêmes fonctions que précédemment.The flaps are completely lowered (Fig. 10) and the previously described final needling is carried out, which performs the same functions as above.
La présent invention est particulièrement avantageuse dans le cas de la fabrication de cartons. Un type de feutre de papeterie utilisé dans ce cas est dit "grand preneur"(en anglais "long bottom felt" ou "long top felt").The present invention is particularly advantageous in the case of the production of cartons. A type of stationery felt used in this case is said to be "long taker" (in English "long bottom felt" or "long top felt").
Il sert à former la feuille de carton en circulant sur une succession de rouleaux d'alimentation en pâte. Il est d'un type léger (1000 g/m2 maximum) pour assurer d'abord l'égouttage de la pâte par simple gravité, c'est-à-dire sans pression. Mais il est aussi utilisé pour l'essorage ultérieur.It is used to form the cardboard sheet by circulating on a succession of pulp feed rollers. It is of a light type (1000 g / m 2 maximum) to first ensure the drainage of the dough by simple gravity, that is to say without pressure. But it is also used for subsequent spinning.
Dans ce cas la formation du rabat, par coupure au rasoir par exemple, est difficile à réaliser et compromet la durée de vie voire la qualité de service du feutre, ceci parce que ce rabat à une densité en fibre trop faible pour se tenir (pour conserver sa forme et ses dimensions). Dans ce cas l'invention permet d'utiliser un feutre à jonction.In this case the formation of the flap, by razor cutting for example, is difficult to carry out and compromises the service life or even the quality of service of the felt, this because this flap has a fiber density too low to hold (for keep its shape and dimensions). In this case, the invention makes it possible to use a junction felt.
L'invention apparaît aussi particulièrement utile dans le cas de la fabrication d'ouate (feuille de très faible poids : de 15 à 30 g/m2) car dans ce cas la discontinuité même modérée apportée par une coupure de la happe d'un feutre à jonction peut créer une variation relativement importante de la consistance de la feuille produite. La présente invention permet dans ce cas l'utilisation d'un feutre à jonction comme "leveur, embarqueur et frictionneur".The invention also appears particularly useful in the case of the manufacture of cotton wool (very light sheet: 15 to 30 g / m 2 ) because in this case the discontinuity, even moderate, brought about by a cut in the snap of a Junction felt can create a relatively large variation in the consistency of the sheet produced. The present invention allows in this case the use of a junction felt as a "lifter, boarder and frictionneur".
