Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for producing fiber material or the like with a predeterminable original weight, with a transport device for supplying fiber flakes to a filling shaft, which comprises a vibrating wall extending in the vertical direction and a displaceable wall, a fixed take-off roller being arranged in the exit region of the filling shaft , which feeds the emerging fiber material to a take-off table.
  • Such devices also called vibrating shaft feeders, first compress fluffy fibers, which, after they have been compacted in the desired manner, are then fed, for example, to a nonwoven formation system.
  • a vibrating shaft feeder In a known vibrating shaft feeder, the fiber flakes are transported from a material box over an ascending needle lattice cloth and detached from this with the aid of a doctor roller and fed to a filling shaft or vibrating shaft.
  • This comprises a vertically standing vibrating wall and an opposite movable wall, between which the fiber flakes are compressed.
  • the movable wall is manually adjustable to set the shaft width.
  • a fixed pressure roller is provided at the outlet of the filling shaft, which deposits the compacted material on a feed table.
  • the fiber material is then fed to an electronic scale.
  • the vibrating movement of the vibrating wall is effected with the aid of an eccentric drive, the vibrating wall moving essentially parallel between two end positions.
  • a key parameter for the quality of the emerging fiber material is the original weight.
  • this is controlled by the height of the material column in the shaft, by the width of the shaft, by the vibrating frequency, by the pull-off speed of the transport table and by the pull-in speed of a downstream carding device, but a direct measured variable can also be controlled by an interposed scale, for example an electronic one Libra to be given.
  • the height of the material column in the shaft also depends on the transport speed the fiber flakes, which ultimately means the speed of the needle-punched cloth.
  • a displaceable draw-off roller is arranged at a distance opposite one another in the exit region of the filling shaft of the fixed draw-off roller, a pressure sensor being provided between the draw-off rollers, which pressure transducer emits a signal at least for the displacement of the draw-off roller, for the vibrating frequency of the vibrating wall and / or the displacement of the displaceable wall.
  • the axes of the take-off rollers are advantageously essentially parallel to one another, so that a uniform quality is achieved over the entire discharge area of the filling shaft.
  • an eccentric drive is provided for the shaking movement of the shaking wall, the eccentric stroke generated by the eccentric drive being adjustable and / or adjustable depending on the signal from the pressure sensor. Since the material is compacted by the shaking movement, this density can be influenced in a particularly simple manner by increasing or reducing the stroke.
  • a fill level sensor is further preferably arranged in the fill shaft, whereby this fill level sensor can be a light barrier or an ultrasonic barrier.
  • the displaceable wall can also be displaceable continuously between a first position, which minimizes the width of the filling shaft, and a second position, which maximizes the width of the filling shaft.
  • a motor control for the movement of the displaceable wall can be implemented in a simple manner.
  • the invention also proposes that the displaceable take-off roller is arranged on the displaceable wall.
  • the take-off roller and wall can thus be moved synchronously.
  • the device according to the invention can be used to regulate the given weight of the fiber material automatically as follows:
  • the measurement signal of a balance changes the speed of the needle slat and thus the fill level in the shaft.
  • a slow needle slat speed means a low filling height
  • a higher needle slat speed requires a higher fiber flake column in the filling shaft.
  • adjustable via a level sensor such as a light barrier, ultrasonic barrier etc.
  • the vibrating frequency, eccentric stroke, shaft width and distance of the take-off roller remain variable. These sizes can be changed with the help of the signal emitted by the pressure sensor.
  • the device according to the invention can also be operated in combination with a balance, in addition to the usual change in speed, with a constant feed weight being set, whereby motors would then be required for the various belts, a motor as before is used on the card feeder or on the fiber flock feeder and then accordingly to be controlled. For example, more strokes can be generated, also on the vibrating wall, in order to obtain greater compaction at a constant retraction speed, or the shaft width is changed at a constant speed, vibrating frequency and speed of the needle bar can also be included if necessary.
  • FIG. 1 A vibrating shaft feeder known from the prior art is shown in FIG. 1.
  • the fiber flakes are introduced from a material box 1, which is only indicated schematically here, via a batten cloth 2, which is designed as a circulating conveyor belt, into a housing 8 which contains the components of the vibrating shaft feeder.
  • a needle slat 3 In the immediate vicinity of the inlet opening 82 in the lower region of the housing 8 there is an end section of a needle slat 3.

  • the drive roller 10 is connected via a belt 12 to a drive motor 6 which is arranged on the housing 8.
  • the roller 4 arranged in the ascending area of the needle slat 3 being a backing roller, which is responsible for the uniform fiber occupancy the width of the needle lattice 3 ensures
  • the roller 5 arranged in the descending region of the needle lattice 3 is a doctor roller which detaches the fibers from the needle lattice and brings them into a filling shaft 7.
  • a guide wall 13 is provided below the tensioning roller 11, which is sloping towards the filling shaft 7.
  • the still descending part of the needle lattice cloth 3 is delimited by a plate 14 following the guidance of the needle lattice cloth, which is guided around the tensioning roller 9 and ends in the vicinity of the insertion opening 82 of the housing 8.
  • the filling shaft 7 is formed from side walls, not shown here, as well as a rear wall designed as a vibrating wall 20 and a displaceable front wall 40.
  • the front wall 40 is displaceable via a handwheel or the like opening on the outside of the housing 8, which is connected to the front wall 40, so that the width of the filling shaft 7 can be adjusted manually.
  • the vibrating wall 20 of the shaft is also movable and generates the material compression by means of a back and forth movement.
  • the vibrating frequency is generated by rotating the shafts 22 mounted on a frame (not shown) with eccentrics 21 thereon, these eccentrics 21 are firmly attached to the vibrating wall 20.
  • the eccentric device is driven by a motor 30.
  • a take-off roller 50 is arranged at the outlet opening of the filling shaft 7 and deposits the compressed fiber material on a take-off table 70.
  • This take-off table 70 is designed as a circulating conveyor belt and guides the fiber material out of the housing 8.
  • An electronic scale 80 adjoins the trigger table 70 and is used to determine the original weight. Carding machines 100 then pull the fiber material into a nonwoven processing system or the like for further processing.
  • FIG. 2 shows a detailed view of the filling shaft in the area of an eccentric device.
  • two positions of the front wall 40 are indicated, namely a position in which a minimum gap width of the filling shaft 7 is generated and a position in which a maximum width of the filling shaft 7 is generated.
  • Two extreme positions of the vibrating wall 20, which are determined by the stroke of the eccentric 21, are also shown schematically.
  • the eccentric 21, mounted on the fixed shaft 22, rotates in a housing 23 which is firmly connected to the vibrating wall 22. In its extreme positions, the eccentric 21 bears on opposing sliding plates 24, which are provided on the inner wall of the housing 23.
  • FIG. 3 shows an embodiment of a device according to the present invention.
  • the fiber flakes are in turn inserted from a material box 1 into the housing 8 via a slatted floor cloth 2, which is designed as a circulating conveyor belt.
  • the floor slat 2 protrudes through an insertion opening 82 into the tensioning roller 9 for the needle slat 3 into the housing 8.
  • the needle slat 3 is rising in the housing 8 arranged and guided around a drive roller 10 and a further tension roller 11 and the already mentioned tension roller 9.
  • contact plates 15, 16 are arranged at a distance from one another in the ascending area of the needle lattice cloth 3, against which the inside of the needle lath cloth 3 lies.
  • the circumferential movement of the needle slat 3 takes place via a drive motor 6 on the housing 8, which acts on the drive roller 10 through a belt 12.
  • the axes of drive roller 10 and tension roller 11 are arranged essentially in a vertical plane, the tension roller 11 being located below the drive roller 10.
  • a stripping roller 4 and a doctor roller 5 are arranged on both sides of the needle slat 3, which take over the same function as in the known device.
  • the fiber material removed from the needle lattice cloth 3 is guided into the filling shaft 7 by a guide wall 13. This is formed from side walls, not shown, and a vibrating wall 20 as the rear wall and a movable front wall 40.
