Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a nonwoven thermally bonded fiber compressed brush construction suitable for use in caustic mill environments such as in steel strip mills, for example. More specifically, the invention relates to a brush for use in caustic environments wherein the brush is made from a plurality of compressed annular sections made of bicomponent nonwoven fibers.
  • the brushes of the present invention are made of fibers that can withstand extremely caustic environments without requiring resinous coatings, binders or the like.
  • steel strip Prior to electrolytic tin plating, steel strip must be thoroughly cleaned. This is done on a continuous basis in steel strip mills by passing the strip through a hot caustic cleaning tank and then through hot water rinse tanks. Brushes are commonly used in the cleaning process to agitate the surfaces of the steel strip.
  • bristled brushes have been made from any of a variety of materials.
  • bristled brushes were commonly used in the cleaning process and typically had natural vegetable fiber bristles.
  • brushes having tampico bristles made from a coarse grass-like plant grown in the region around Tampico, Mexico (hereinafter “tampico bristled brushes”) had enjoyed widespread use in steel strip cleaning applications.
  • Bristled brushes may also include bristles of a synthetic construction such as polypropylene, for example. Bristled brushes, however, experienced a short service life in the caustic environment of steel strip mills.
  • the phenolic bonded nylon web brush has also exhibited some shortcomings in the caustic environments in which it has been used. Although it generally enjoyed a much longer useful life than the tampico bristled brushes, the nylon web brushes are known to degrade and generate waste or "fluff" as a result of the gradual breakdown under hot caustic conditions (typically pH 13 and 80°C) of the protective phenolic resin binder coating the nylon fibers. The fluff is caused by the release of the nylon staple fibers. The generation of fluff is problematic because it is difficult to clean out of the steel mill cleaning lines and it tends to block filters.
  • the present invention overcomes the noted problems in the art by providing a rotary brush suitable for use in cleaning steel strip rolls and the like in caustic environments, the brush comprising:
  • the fibers making up the compressed annular sections are preferably a combination of polyolefins (e.g. polypropylene and polyethylene) but may also include polyesters and other materials.
  • the annular sections are preferably needle tacked prior to melt bonding. Spacers may be interposed between the annular sections so that the finished brush will include a plurality of annular sections and spacers in a predetermined ratio.
  • a preferred method of manufacturing the rotary brushes of the present invention comprises:
  • figures 1 and 2 illustrate, respectively, first and second embodiments of a compressed cleaning brush made of a nonwoven thermally bonded fiber web.
  • Figures 1(a)-(d) show various features of a first embodiment of the invention, showing the brush 30 and its components in a tie-bolt construction.
  • Figures 2(a)-(d) illustrate another embodiment of the invention showing the same brush material utilized in a bonded brush construction 40.
  • the web includes no phenolic resin binders.
  • the brushes described herein could be made into a flap brush type construction as well as the compressed section type. It will also be appreciated that the spacers described herein may not be essential in certain type brushes such as smaller brushes, for example.
  • a nonwoven web is used to prepare the annular sections 10 and 20.
  • bicomponent fibers be used without additional resins (e.g. phenolic resins) or the like to either protect or bind the fibers of the web.
  • Preferred web fibers include certain polymer fibers such as polyolefin fibers, polyester fibers and combinations thereof. More preferably, polyolefin bicomponent fibers are used and most preferably polyethylene and polypropylene crimped staple fibers.
  • the fiber diameter can be important.
  • Polyolefin fibers in deniers from about 3 to about 40 denier are preferred.
  • the fiber length can range from being virtually continuous to being of finite length.
  • Crimped polyolefin staple fibers having lengths from about 25 millimeters to about 64 millimeters and more preferably from about 38 to about 50 millimeters have been useful in preparing webs using conventional web forming equipment.
  • the fibers may be only slightly crimped and the nature of the fiber crimp includes conjugate or helical crimps.
  • the fibers are thermoplastic bi-component, i.e. sheath and core type or side-by-side type, one component preferably being polypropylene and the other preferably polyethylene. It is also contemplated that polyester bicomponent fibers may be used.
  • the preferred construction of the web includes no additional resinous materials to bond or protect the fibers of the web.
  • An important aspect of the invention is the manufacture of a bicomponent web wherein the fibers are melt bonded to one another at the fiber contact points within the web.
  • the web is typically heated to the temperature of the lower melting point polyethylene component while the higher melting point polypropylene component maintains its dimensions during the heating step. During this heating step, the melted polyethylene fibers bond with the polypropylene at the contact points of the fibers within the web and the web experiences only minimal shrinkage during bonding.
  • Preferred webs for the brush construction are those made in web basis weights from about 100 grams per square meter ("gsm") to about 500 gsm and those having a web thickness of from about 5 millimeters to about 25 millimeters.
  • the above described nonwoven webs may be manufactured in a known manner by using a RANDO WEBBER brand machine (Rando Machine Corporation, Ard, NY) or a FIBER LOCKER brand machine (James Hunter, North Adams, Mass.).
  • Needle tacking is a known technique which uses barbed or felting needles to further entangle the fibers of a nonwoven web by forcing the needles into the web in a predetermined manner. Where needle tacking has been employed, satisfactory webs have been achieved by using a needle tacker machine fitted with a multiplicity of needles, typically 15 x 18 x 30 x 3.5 CB Foster felting needles fitted to the needle board.
  • One preferred needle bar layout includes five rows spaced apart at distances of 8.5 mm, 8.5 mm, 10 mm and 6.5 mm and with the needles in each row evenly spaced at a distance of 12.5 mm.
  • the web After punching, the web is transported by conveyors through a preheated oven.
  • Air flow is deflected through the web with angled baffles above and below a carrier mesh belt and the web is heated to the softening or melting temperature of one of the component fibers.
  • the web is heated to a temperature from about 142°C to about 148°C to induce heat fusion of the fibers.
  • the temperature of the oven may be varied over a range of temperatures depending upon the weight of the web and the speed at which the web is fed through the oven. It has been found that satisfactory webs are produced by feeding the nonbonded web material having a weight of about 200 gsm at a line speed of four meters per minute through a 25 meter long oven maintained at a temperature of about 142°C. As the weight of the web and/or the speed at which it is carried though the oven increases, the temperature of the oven must also be increased. A 250gsm web, for example, has been adequately bonded at a temperature of about 148°C when conveyed through the oven at a conveyor speed of five meters per minute.
  • the bonded web is cooled on exiting the oven with an air knife and passed through a dancing nip roller from which it enters a festoon accumulator prior to being wound onto a master roll or "jumbo".
  • Annular sections 10, 20 are then punched from the manufactured web.
  • the sections 10, 20 are punched from the web in a variety of diameters which will typically vary between about 200 millimeters and about 600 millimeters, depending on brush requirements as well as the available physical space in the cleaning line(s) where the finished brush is to be installed. It will be appreciated that the invention does not require any real limit to the web diameter or to the brush length other than what might be imposed by engineering design considerations.
  • the web sections 10, 20 are formed with center apertures 70, 80 which may include opposing squared-off keyway slots 90 (Figure 1a) to fit over a key element on a support shaft. Additional slots 92 may be provided to engage long tie-bolts (or axle bolts) 100 which hold the brush components together during the assembly process. Where a glued brush construction is required, tie bolts 100 are not used and the sections 20 and spacers 50 are adhered to a steel core 110 as shown in Figures 2(a)-(d), for example.
  • Spacers 50, 60 are provided for positioning between web sections.
  • the spacers 50, 60 are typically made from a thermoplastic material such as polypropylene, and are provided with a center hole configuration similar (and usually identical) to the apertures 70, 80 of the webs 10, 20. As shown, the spacers are provided with a smaller outer diameter than the annular sections 10 and 20.
  • the spacers are positioned between annular sections along an assembly shaft such as the axle bolts 100 in a predetermined number of spacers per finished brush and at a predetermined number of annular sections per spacer.
  • the section to spacer ratio in the brushes of Figures 1 and 2 for example, is 3:1 and the loading of annular sections is typically 12.5 sections per 25 millimeters of brush length.
  • this brush loading and the section to spacer ratio is not limiting in any way. It is contemplated that preferred brush loadings could range between about 5 and about 20 sections per 25 millimeters and the preferred section to spacer ratios could range from about 1:0 to about 5:1.
  • the use of spacers 50, 60 within the construction of the brushes disclosed herein is generally desired because the spacers allow the annular web sections 10, 20 in the finished brush some freedom to move laterally at their peripheral portions for proper cleaning operations while also firmly reinforcing the annular sections 10, 20 along their inner diameters. Spacers made of polypropylene having an outer diameter of 200 millimeters, an inner diameter of 109 mm and a thickness of 1.9 mm have been satisfactory.
  • the annular sections 10 and the spacers 50 are assembled along the axle bolts 100 between end flanges 120.
  • the sections 20 and the spacers 150 are positioned along the core 60. After a predetermined number of spacers and annular sections have been assembled as described above, the spacers and the annular sections are compressed under a sufficient force at room temperature to make a dense nonwoven brush structure of a predetermined length which can then be loaded onto working shafts (not shown) for cleaning operations in steel mills.
  • the compacted densities of the brushes of the present invention are preferably at least about 5 kg/m 3 and more preferably between about 50 and about 250 kg/m 3 and most preferably about 125 kg/m 3 .
  • the compaction force may be applied by any suitable means available to those in the art.
  • the annular sections and the spacers are then restrained in their compacted configuration by any suitable means such as the end flanges 120 or locking collars adapted to be slidable on and mechanically engagable with the axle bolts 100.
  • the sections 20 and the spacers 150 of figure 2 may be held on the core 60 by adhesive bonding.
  • the preferred hardness of the finished brushes as measured by the Shore A2 scale is between about 5 and about 25.
  • the web is made from a side-by-side bi-component polyethylene/polypropylene staple fiber supplied by Chisso Corporation (Polypropylene Fiber Division, 6-32 Naanoshima 3, Kita-Ku, Osaka 530, Japan) and termed Chisso Type ES.
  • the preferred staple fiber is 18 denier and length 64 millimeters.
  • the preferred web weight is 250gsm.
  • the web may be needle punched at a punch density of about 8 punches/cm 2 by needletacking at 760 cycles/min and with a penetration of 21 millimeters into the web at a line speed of four meters per minute.
  • a preferred brush construction 30, 40 includes about 600 annular sections and about 200 polypropylene spacers 50, 60, each about 1.9 millimeters thick to form a 1.2 meter long x 406 millimeters diameter compressed brush.
  • a 250 g/m 2 , 50 mm thick nonwoven fabric is prepared by processing "CHISSO" polyethylene/polypropylene sheath/core staple fiber (Chisso Corporation, Osaka, Japan or Chisso America, Inc., New York, NY), 18 denier x 38 mm length using an air lay machine available under the trade designation "RANDO WEBBER” from Rando Machine Corporation, Ard, NY.
  • the resulting fabric is consolidated by needle tacking using a conventional needletacker with a needle board loaded to 10 needles per inch (3.9 per cm) with needles designated 15x18x30x3.5 CB, available from Foster Needle Company, Manitowoc, WI.
  • the needle tacker is adjusted to provide 85 mm needle penetration and 49 penetrations/in 2 (7.6 penetrations/cm 2 ).
  • the thus consolidated fabric is passed at 5 m/min. through a 25 meter long forced-draft bonding oven heated to 148°C.
  • the resulting fabric is about 10 mm thick, is well bonded and relatively stiff, and has no fluffy appearance.
  • Annular sections of three different diameters are then cut from the consolidated and bonded fabric.
  • the majority of the sections are cut to provide an outer diameter ("o.d.") of 406 mm and an inner diameter ("i.d.") of 109 mm, the i.d. further provided with 4 equiangularly spaced notches to accept an array of 4 axle bolts, and two symmetrical notches to provide a keyway for mounting on an end use shaft.
  • Lesser numbers of sections are cut having outside diameters of 300 mm and 255 mm, all with an inside diameter of 109 mm and with the same array of notches an in the 406 mm sections.
  • the two smaller o.d. sections are used to provide tapered or stepped ends for the final brush.
  • Polypropylene spacers of 200 mm o.d., 109 mm i.d., and thickness of 1.9 mm are cut from polypropylene sheet, also providing the notches to accommodate the axle bolts and shaft keys. Having provided these various sections and the spacers, the cleaning brush of the present invention is now ready for assembly.
  • axle bolts are secured to an end flange in an equiangular array identical to that of the axle bolt notches provided in the sections and spacers.
  • the end flange is also provided with two opposing keyway notches, likewise matching those provided in the sections and spacers.
  • Four 255 mm o.d. annular sections are placed over the axle bolts so that the axle bolts engage the axle bolt notches.
  • a spacer is then placed similarly over the axles bolts, followed by two 300 mm o.d. sections, followed by a spacer, then followed by two 406 mm o.d. sections and subsequently a spacer. This assembly is continued by alternating three 406 mm o.d.
  • the cleaning brush is mounted on a keyed shaft and can then be evaluated as a cleaning brush in a plating operation where it is subjected to a heated (80°C) cleaning solution which is highly caustic, typically having a pH of about 13.
  • the brush will perform the cleaning operation adequately, generating virtually no fluff, and will have a useful life of nearly twice that of a conventional nylon/resin brush.
