Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to material compacting apparatus, and more particularly, but not exclusively, to material compacting apparatus which can be used in plants for the manufacture of rigid, elon ⁇ gated structural elements, so-called beams.
- the starting material used with such apparatus comprises loose, fibrous material moistened with binder, for instance such materials as cutter chips or shavings and sawdust, although it may also comprise other suitable materials, and is compacted in said apparatus and subseguently dried in a heating section, to form said beam.
- the invention also relates to simple material compacting apparatus adapted for use in a plant for the aforesaid purpose, and comprising a material compaction section or unit, in which batches of binder-moistened, loosely packed fibrous material are compacted.
- the plant also includes a heating section, in which the sequentially compressed material batches are dried, and a transport ⁇ ing arrangement by means of which each of the material batches compacted in the compaction unit is passed successively and in sequence, through the heating sec ⁇ tion.
- material batches is not meant mutually separate and well defined quantities of material, but a plurality of such batches or material quantities required to form an elongated beam, and that measures are taken to ensure .that no clearly defined interfaces exist between mutually adjacent batches.
- batch is used primarily to provide a simple understanding of the discontinuous production process taking place in a heating section which is provided with linearly movable wall-sections and a bottom section.
- a plant of the aforesaid kind is known from Interna- . tional Patent Application No. PCT/SE84/00303, which describes and illustrates an arrangement for producing an elongated element (here referred to lossely as a beam) , comprising a compaction section which includes compaction apparatus which functions to displace and compact sequentially binder-moistened, mutually separate material batches, the volumes of which have been clearly defined by weighing, such that the compressed or co - pacted, individual material batches can be passed se ⁇ quentially through a high-frequency heating section.
- a compaction section which includes compaction apparatus which functions to displace and compact sequentially binder-moistened, mutually separate material batches, the volumes of which have been clearly defined by weighing, such that the compressed or co - pacted, individual material batches can be passed se ⁇ quentially through a high-frequency heating section.
- the apparatus described in the aforesaid publication includes a compaction section in which a piston is reciprocatingly movable in a horizontal direction, co- directionally with the centre line of the heating sec ⁇ tion and with the outfeed direction of the beam, subse ⁇ quent to its passage through the heating section.
- the so-called beam is produced from individual, well-defined material batches which are clearly separated from one another by a section or border region of material which has been compressed to varying degrees of compaction and also the fibre directions of which have been displaced vertically in relation to one another, to some extent.
- a highly compli ⁇ cated technical problem is one of providing, with simple means, conditions which will eliminate the reduction in the mechanical strength of a so-called beam or elongated structural element produced in accordance with these known methods in the boundary or interface region be ⁇ tween two mutually adjacent compacted material batches, where this interface region or boundary region can be considered to be due to the fact that the forwardly located material batch presents a highly compacted surface to the piston, whereas the subsequent batch is introduced vertically and is compacted to some extent prior to being subjected to horizontal compaction with a pronounced difference in compaction against the surface of the preceding batch, without needing to forego the advantages of being able to used well-defined, indivi ⁇ dual material-batches which can be readily weighed.
- Another technical problem is one of realizing that despite compacting the material-batches in several stages and despite the resultant pronounced reduction in the mechanical strength of the interface, the mechanical strength in the interface between mutually adjacent batches can be considerably improved when the extent to which compaction is effected in each stage is selected such that a relatively high degree of compaction is effected in the last compaction stage.
- Another technical problem is one of realizing, in this respect, that it is necessary to compact the material to the smallest possible extent upstream of or before the last compaction stage, but that this degree of compac- tion shall nevertheless be sufficiently great to enable the material-batches to be pressed and moved through the last compaction stage.
- a technical problem is one of modifying an earlier known compaction section in a simple fashion, such as to eliminate, or at least great ⁇ ly reduce, the occurrence of locally defined, separate degrees of compaction and fibre movement between each material batch experienced with the earlier techniques.
- Another technical problem is one of realizing that the aforesaid technical problem can be solved by construc ⁇ ting the compaction section in a manner such that the material-batches are compacted stepwise to a pre- determined degree of pre-compaction, with the aid of a rod-like device or ram located in a limited region of the longitudinal extension of the compaction section kand operative to compact material in a later stage of the pre-compaction process.
- a further technical problem is one of utilizing the knowledge that the weight per unit volume of a finished beam, or elongated structural member, requires the provision of a metering and weigh- ing device for establishing the weight and moisture content of each of the individual batches of loose material used, while still creating conditions by means of which there can be produced a beam which lacks pro ⁇ nounced interfaces between mutually adjacent material- batches, while feeding said material-batches discon- tinuously into the apparatus, so that the material strength of one material-batch will not differ from the material strength of an adjacent batch. It requires qualified perception to solve this technical problem while still being able to use a weight-based metering device coupled to the compaction section.
- a further problem is one of realiz ⁇ ing that in the case of an adhesive binder and a loose material in the form of cutter chips or sawdust, the final degree of compaction must be achieved subsequent to a multi-stage pre-compaction process and an immedi- ately following, locally-acting final compaction, pre ⁇ ferably in solely one direction, such as to form on the manufactured beams a finished outer surface, so that the beams will exhibit pre-determined mechanical strength properties, for example beams or elongated structural which are able to fulfill the test requirements pre ⁇ scribed for loading-pallet constructions.
- a technical problem resides in the provision of a principle solution to one or more of the aforesaid technical problems, by realizing that a piston-operating metering device is able to pre-compact the material batches to the requisite extent, without the occurrence of pronounced interfaces or boundaries, by permitting an initial pre-compaction to act against a surface of the pre-compacted batch which has disinte ⁇ grated as a result of pre-compaction.
- the heating section comprises movable wall-parts
- a further technical problem resides in the provision of conditions, with the aid of simple means, which will eliminate the tendency of the material-batches located in the compaction section to break-up or to be displaced, especially when the wall- parts of the heating section are moved back towards the compaction section, for instance by providing a rod-like device or ram which has a cross-sectional surface area, of such size as to bear against a pre-compacted material batch and hold said batch effectively against movement with the wall-parts.
- the present invention relates to material-compacting apparatus which can be used in plants for the manufac- ture of rigid, elongated structural elements, so-called beams, produced from loose, fibrous material moistened with binder, and comprising a compaction section in which batches of binder-moistened material are compac ⁇ ted; a heating section in which the compacted material- batches are dried; and a transporting arrangement which functions to cause material-batches compacted in the compaction unit to pass successively through the heating section.
- the transporting arrangement utilizes, inter alia, the circumstance that the wall-parts of the heating section are reciprocatingly movable in a direction parallel with the direction of the material-batches.
- the material-batches are pre- compacted to a compaction value which is greater than the compaction value required to feed the thus lightly pre-compacted material-batches through apparatus in which said batches, pre-compacted in varies stages, are finally compacted prior to feeding the batches into the heating section.
- pre-compaction of the material batches is effected in a small number of stages, comprising a first stage of greater batch-compaction and subsequent stages in which the material-batches are compacted to a lesser extent, and that the batches are then compacted to a high degree of final compaction.
- the degree of pre-compaction of material batches in the first stage corresponds to, or substantially corresponds to, twice the degree of compaction in the final compac ⁇ tion zone.
- the degree of pre-compaction in the first stage is much greater than the degree of pre-compaction in the second stage or than the total compaction in the remaining pre- compaction stages.
- the material-batches are compacted to their ultimate degree of compaction from one side of the batches, namely the side considered to be the right-side of the elongated member, so as to provide a finished surface.
- the compaction chamber has arranged therein a reciproca- tingly movable rod-like device, or ram, which moves parallel with the longitudinal extension of the elon ⁇ gated member or beam, and the cross-sectional area of which is such that the member will be held pressed against material-batches in their respective positions and move said batches towards the heating section, even when one side-wall part, normally both side-wall parts, and/or the bottom part of the heating section is dis ⁇ placed towards the compaction section.
- a reciproca- tingly movable rod-like device, or ram which moves parallel with the longitudinal extension of the elon ⁇ gated member or beam, and the cross-sectional area of which is such that the member will be held pressed against material-batches in their respective positions and move said batches towards the heating section, even when one side-wall part, normally both side-wall parts, and/or the bottom part of the heating section is dis ⁇ placed towards the compaction section.
- the compaction section is constructed so as to impart to the foremost material- batch, seen in the direction of feed, a considerably higher degree of compaction than the degree to which the following material-batch is compacted.
- Each material-batch may comprise a definite, weighed quantity of material.
- the material-batches are pre-compacted in a second compaction stage by means of a horizontally movable piston which is configured with a surface inclined to the horizontal plane, said surface defining an angle of from 40-60° .
- the end-face of the rod-like member has an area which equals 20% of the cross-sectional area of the compacted batch, preferably between 30 and 40%. In its position nearest the heating section, the end- face of the rod-like member terminates short of the foremost, finally compacted material-batch.
- the rod-like member extends through a pre-compacting section and forms in an adjacent and forwardly located material-batch a cavity which is located adjacent a boundary layer or interface between two mutually ad ⁇ jacent material-batches.
- the distance travelled by the horizontally movable piston is shorter than the distance travelled by the rod-like member.
- the degree of compaction of individual material-batches can be varied in dependence on the desired density of the elongated member finally formed, although when the binder used is glue and the loose fibrous material comprises cutter chips or saw- dust, the ultimate degree of compaction is at most 5:1.
- the foremost batch is com ⁇ pressed or compacted with the aid of a device which acts in at least one direction, preferbly a device comprising one or more rolls.
- a knife or doctor blade is positioned adjacent the final compaction stage, in order to prevent material from being picked-up by and carried with the roll.
- a follow ⁇ ing batch of material, compressed to a lower degree of compaction is advanced in the form of a cylindrical body and subjected to a final shape change in the final compaction stage.
- the free cross-sectional surface of the rod-like member is effective to impart to subsequent material-batches a degree of compaction sufficiently great to prevent the movement of the walls from separa- ting a forwardly located compacted material-batch from a following finally pre-compacted material-batch.
- a rein ⁇ forcing mat, fibreglass mat is passed between the rolls and a finally compacted material-batch, such as to form a surface reinforcement on the elongated member pro ⁇ quizzed.
- the final compaction roll should have a larger diameter than in the case of smaller press depths (in order to achieve the final degree of compaction) .
- Figure 1 is a highly simplified illustration, in side view, of a known plant machinery intended for the manu ⁇ facture of elongated members, or so-called beams, and illustrating one embodiment of a compaction section for stepwise compaction of material-batches;
- Figure 2 is a side view, partly in section, of a mate- rial-compacting arrangement suited for use in the plan shown in Figure 1, said arrangement being shown in a first operational state;
- Figure 3 is a side view, partly in section, of the arrangement illustrated in Figure 2, and shows the arrangement in a second operational state;
- Figure 4 illustrates the proposed time-related activa tion of a rod-like member in dependence on the pre- compaction sequence and the displacement of side-wall parts and bottom-part of a heating section.
- Figure l illustrates plant machinery 1 which is opera ⁇ tive produce a rigid, elongated element, or beam 4 from binder-moistened loose material 2, and which includes a compaction section 7 and a heating section 5.
- Figure 1 is a highly simplified illustration, in side view, of a plant 1 for manufacturing an elongated element or beam 4.
- the plant machinery illustrated in Figure 1 include a hydraulic piston-cylinder device 10 having a piston rod 9 which co-acts with a compacting device 8, which has in the form of a piston or plunger.
- the piston rod 9 is reciprocatingly movable and func- tions to move the piston, which extends slightly into a compaction chamber 7' .
- the front or leading surface 8a of the piston 8 forms a rear side-wall part of the compaction section 7.
- a material-batch supply device 6 Located immediately above the compaction chamber 7' is a material-batch supply device 6.
- the upper part of the device 6 may be configured with a space for accommo ⁇ dating fibre material and a space for accommodating binder.
- the fibre material and binder are mixed together in specific proportions in a mixing station (not shown) , whereafter the mixture is fed to a lower space.
- the total amount of fibre material required to produce a complete elongated member or beam is fed to the compac ⁇ tion chamber 7' , via a portioning and weighing arrange- ent not shown in Figure 1.
- a ready-mix of fibre material and binder may be supplied directly to the batch-supply device 6.
- the elongated element can be formed by spraying or moistening fibrous material with binder, particularly in the case when the fibrous material is fed directly to the compaction chamber 7 - and there subjected to pressure.
- the material is primarily non-conductive electrically, e.g. such material as cutter shavings, wastepaper, textiles, sawdust, chips and like materials or alter- natively such a material which is admixed with plastic, bark and the like.
- the compaction device 8 has the form of a piston and is moved reciprocatingly by means of a hydraulic piston-cylinder device 10 having a piston and piston-rod 9.
- the compaction device 8 is illustrated in side view in Figure 1 in a non-compacting position in which it leaves the compaction chamber open.
- the space in front of the compacting device is filled with a metered quantity of fibrous material from the device 6, optionally with the aid of a vertically acting plunger, not shown. This is effected by ensuring that the compac ⁇ tion chamber will be filled with batch material as the compacting device 8 is withdrawn to its position shown in Figure 1 and thus exposes an opening, through which the material is dispensed.
- the material-batch located in the compaction chamber is compacted against the rear-face of the preceding material-batch, such as to build upon one batch after another and thereby con ⁇ struct the elongated element or beam.
- each of the sequentially located batches will be compacted in the compaction chamber 7' and displaced in the form of a coherent unit to a following heating section 5.
- the finally compacted material, provided with binder is introduced through the end part 5a of the heating section and is subjected to heat treatment in said section with the aid of a known high-frequency plant, not shown in detail, whereafter the finished elongated-element or beam is discharged through the end part 5b of said section.
- the finished beam is referenced 4 in the drawings.
- the elongated element 4 can be transferred directly to a processing plant 3, in which the outer surfaces of the beam are coated with an impregnating liquid, paint, varnish or the like.
- Figure 1 illustrates in side view, and in principle, a fibre-compacting unit in which the compaction of fibrous material is effected in three stages.
- Loose fibre material 2b such as sawdust, moistened with binder, and agglomerated to form a material-batch in a portioning and weighing arrangement (not shown) is fed to a space located beneath a plunger 21 in a known manner.
- this batch of material is compacted from one side thereof to a compaction ratio of 2.5:1, therewith imparting to said material-batch a first degree of compaction.
- the compacting surface of the plunger 21 is then moved to the position 21a shown in Figure 1.
- the material-batch compacted to said first degree of compaction in the first compaction stage is then co - pacted to a second degree of compaction in a second compaction stage.
- the material-batch is compacted only to a relatively small extent in the second stage and this further compaction of the material-batch in said stage is solely intended to ensure that the material batch is compacted sufficiently to enable said batch to be passed through a third stage.
- the material-batch is compacted in the second compaction stage at a ratio of 1:1 to about 1.5:1, suitably a ratio of 1.1:1.
- This secondary compaction is effected by displacing the piston 8 so that the surface 8a is moved to the illus ⁇ trated position 8a".
- the material-batch compacted to said second degree of compaction in the second compaction stage is then com ⁇ pacted in a final or third compaction stage 12 from one side of said batch to a compaction ratio of 1.3:1.
- the thus compacted material-batch is then passed to the heating section.
- the compaction section 7 includes a piston 21 which functions to pre- compact a material-batch 2b ( Figure 3) in a first com ⁇ paction stage. Compaction of the thus pre-compacted material-batch is effected in the second stage 2b" and the third stage 2b' ' ' with the aid of the compacting device 8 and a rod-like member 23.
- the material-batch is finally compacted by a roll 12, to form finally-compacted batches 2a.
- the aforesaid rod ⁇ like member 23 is mounted for reciprocating movement in the compaction space 22, in a direction parallel with the longitudinal axis of the elongated element or beams 4.
- the end face 23a of the rod-like member 23 is con ⁇ figured so that it is able to hold and retain the com ⁇ pacted material-batches 2a, 2b' ' ' and displace said material-batches towards the heating section in their respective positions, even when a side-wall part 15, normally both side-half parts, and/or the bottom-part 16 of the heating section are displaced towards the com ⁇ paction section.
- the rod-like member 23 is driven by means of a hydraulic drive (not shown).
- the foremost material-batch 2a is finally compacted to a degree of compaction hjigher than the degree of compaction of the ollowing material- batches 2b' '', 2b" and 2b' respectively.
- This final compaction is effected with the aid of compacting means, such as a roll 12.
- each material-batch pre-compacted in the aforesaid three stages comprises, in this case, a metered, specifically proportioned quantity of material which is introduced into the space 22 and there compacted in a first stage by the piston 21, which moves from the position illu ⁇ strated in Figure 3 to the position illustrated in Figure 2.
- the material-batch 2b is in this way pre-compacted to 2b' in a first compaction stage.
- the thus pre- compacted material-batch is then further compacted in a second stage, by movement to the right in the drawing of the horizontal piston 8.
- the piston 8 has a surface 8a which is inclined to the horizontal plane and the upper part of which lies closer to the heating section 5 and the lower part of said surface, said surface preferably being inclined at an angle of from 40-60°.
- Compaction of the material-batch in the second stage is effected by moving the piston 8 to the right, from position 8a to the position 8a' shown in the drawing.
- the material-batch can be further compacted, by causing the rod-like member 23 to be moved to the right after the piston 8 has stopped in the position 8a'.
- the cross-section of the rod-like member 23 must be precisely dimensioned, and it is proposed in accordance with the invention that the end face, or end cross- section surface, of the rod-like member will cover more than 20% of the cross-section of the compacted material- batch, preferably between 30 and 40% of said cross- sectional area.
- the end-surface 23a of said member will be located at a small distance from the foremost material-batch 2a.
- the rod-like member is intended to extend through the pre-compacting section to an extent such as to be able to form in an adjacent material-batch, the material- batch located immediately adjacent the finally-compacted material-batch 2a, a cavity 24 which is located immedi ⁇ ately adjacent a boundary or interface layer between two mutually adjacent material-batches, this interface layer being obliquely formed.
- Figure 3 illustrates clearly a material-batch 2b"*, which has been pre-compacted in two stages and in which one such cavity 24 has been formed in an oblique boundary layer 25.
- the boundary layers 25' of preceding batches will disintegrate and fall into the cavity 24.
- the material-batch 2b' com ⁇ pacted by the piston 21 will now fill the space 22 and pre-compaction of the material-batch in the following second compaction stage will cause the boundary layer to crumble such that no pronounced boundary layer or inter ⁇ face will exist between the material-batches 2b''' and 2a.
- the rod-like member 23 is moved forward simultaneously with the piston 8, and it is proposed that when the piston 8 has reached its forward terminal position, to the right in the figure, the rod-like member 23 is caused to move forward slightly, into the material-batch 2b" so as to subject said batch to final pre-compaction.
- Figure 2 shows that two vertical side-wall parts, made of an electrically insulating material, of which only one is referenced 15, can be moved backwards and for ⁇ wards in the direction of the arrow 15a, while a bottom- part 16 can similarly be moved in the direction of the arrow 16a, by means not shown.
- the bottom-part 16 is made of an electrically conductive material.
- Figure 2 shows the side-wall parts and the bottom-part 16 in their far-left position in the beam-forming appar ⁇ atus.
- the illustrated side-wall parts 15 and the bottom-part 16 are intended to move in conformity with the piston 8 and the frequency of said piston.
- the compac- tion section 7 over a very short displacement path, is intended to impart to the foremost material-batch 2a a higher degree of compaction than the following pre- compacted material-batches 2b'" located in the space 11.
- Pre-compaction of the material-batches in the different compaction stages can be regulated in dependence on the force acting on the pistons 21 and 8 and on the rod-like member 23.
- the foremost material-batch 2a located in the compaction section is finally compacted by means of a roll, i.e. the roll 12 shown in Figure 2.
- the degree of final compaction is dependent on the degree of pre-compaction, and the extent to which the material-batch is finally compacted will determine the density of the elongated element or beam.
- the degree of final compaction is dependent on the press-depth of the roll, and it can be assumed that the roll will contribute in imparting a somewhat higher degree of compaction to the upper surface 4a' than to the underlying parts of the elongated element.
- a reinforcing net or reinforcing mat 12a is passed through the nip defined between roll 12 and the material-batch, so as to provide a surface reinforcement.
- the roll 12 When a greater press-depth is desired, the roll 12 will have a larger diameter than when a smaller press-depth is required.
- the degree of final compaction will preferably not exceed 5:1, although the extent to which the batches are compacted will depend on the desired density of the finished elongated element or beam.
- a knife 21 is arranged beneath the roll 12, said knife being flat when a flat upper beam-surface is desired and
- the present invention is based on the assumption that the side-wall parts 15 and the bottom-parts 16 of the heating section 5 are displaceably mounted, it is intended that the side-wall parts 15 and the bottom-part
- the extent to which the batches 2b"' are pre-compacted and the counter-pressure exerted by the rod-like member 23 must be sufficiently large to prevent such cracks from forming.
- the material-batches must be pre-compacted to a greater extent than when solely one of said parts is moved at a time, and similarly the surface area of the rod-like member must also be greater.
- the apparatus is then ready to finally compact material- batches 2b"', during which the side-wall parts 15 and the bottom-part 16 accompany the movement and a finally- compacted batch 2a passes into the heating section 5.
- the side-wall parts 15 are preferably made from an electrically insulating material and the bottom-part 16 from an electrically conductive material, said bot ⁇ tom-part being earthed. It should be observed (referring back to Figure 2) that the provision of a plurality of rolls 12 will, on the one hand, provide a longer friction path, which can be desirable per se, although a longer friction path will result in a smaller degree of compaction, and conse ⁇ quently these factors should be taken into account when practicing the invention.
- the cross-sectional shape of the rod-like device 23 and the configuration of its end face 23a are preferably such that sufficient counterpressure will be obtained to prevent the formation of cracks when the side-wall parts 15 and the bottom-part 16 are moved to the right, as seen in the figure.
- cross-section should be chosen so that disintegration of the boundary layer or interface (25') will be effective, which means that the cavity 24 must be relatively large.
- Figure 4 illustrates an appropriate time-related example of the intermittent manufacturing procedure, and how this procedure is time-related to the movements of the side-wall parts 15 and the bottom-part 16.
- the Figure 4 diagramme has a starting point from the moment at which the piston 21 has pre-compacted a material-batch 2b' , comprising cutter chips and adhe ⁇ sive, in the space 22, i.e. pre-compaction in the first compaction stage, and the side-wall parts 15 and the bottom-part 16 are located in their left-terminal posi ⁇ tion.
- This also applies to the rod-like member 23.
- the rod-like member 23 and the piston 8 move simultaneously as the piston is moved to the right in Figure 2 to a position in which a material-batch 2b" is pre-compacted in the second compaction stage.
- the rod-like member is returned to its far-left position, whereafter the piston 21 is raised at time point t 12 and a weighed quantity of material is metered to the space 22 during t 12 ⁇ t i3 *
