Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus for removing dust released during treatment of a moving web of fibre material, particularly cellulosic fibre material, such as in machines for cutting and rewinding paper webs, in printing machines and in the dry end of paper machines, e.g. in the production of a soft creping paper web which is creped off a Yankee cylinder by means of a creping doctor and spread by means of one or more spreading means comprising a first dust suction box including an elongated housing having an inner suction chamber in communication with a vacuum source, said housing having a first inlet in the form of a suction gap communicating with the suction chamber, and said housing also including a main part and first and second parts which define said suction gap between them.
  • a first dust suction box including an elongated housing having an inner suction chamber in communication with a vacuum source, said housing having a first inlet in the form of a suction gap communicating with the suction chamber, and said housing also including a main part and first and second parts which define said suction
  • Dust in the form of fibres and other particles are released from the web when creping off a soft crepe paper web, e.g. a tissue web, from a Yankee cylinder.
  • a soft crepe paper web e.g. a tissue web
  • SE-381 899 To remove this dust it has been proposed in US patent No. 4,019,953 (SE-381 899) to arrange a collection container below the area where the dust is produced.
  • a compressed air pipe and a suction pipe are connected to this in order to remove dusty air drawn across the direction of transport of the web by jets of compressed air. Compressed air must be blown on since merely drawing off the dust by means of ventilation has little effect in view of poor distance action.
  • Such a device is cumbersome, bulky and relatively inefficient since it only takes care of some of the dust falling down below the dust-producing area.
  • the high speeds of modern tissue machines namely in the region of near 25 m/s, contribute to the unsatisfactory result since dusty air is entrained
  • US patent No. 3,775,806 proposes an apparatus for dust-suction of the surface of a paper web. To avoid the web being drawn in towards the suction device and coming into contact with this, thus causing damage to the web, air is blown on at the same time as the suction.
  • the proposed dust-suction device therefore comprises a horizontal sheet-metal channel, open at the top, which surrounds a rectangular blowing pipe and extends transversely across the web.
  • the side of the blowing pipe facing the web has openings facing away from each other in order to direct air jets substantially parallel to the web both with and against the direction of transport of the web, thus fixing the distance between web and dust suction device.
  • Intermediate openings of the same type may be arranged to direct air jets towards the surface of the web to achieve a better dust suction effect by blowing dust off the surface.
  • the air supplied and the dust entrained are withdrawn perpendicularly to the web, through the two gaps formed upstream and downstream of the blowing pipe, between it and the surrounding sheet-metal channel, to which a means for drawing off air is connected.
  • the wall parts of the sheet-metal channel located nearest the web may be vertically movable up and down enabling them to be set in such a manner that the dust-carrying air blown on does not flow past the suction gaps, neither does the web scrape against said wall parts and become damaged.
  • the dust-suction effect achieved with the arrangement according to US-3,775,806 does not, however, fulfil modern requirements with regard to also taking care of the dust that accompanies the air around a fast-moving paper web.
  • the arrangement is both bulky and expensive to purchase and to operate due to the air flows required by the blow-on technique.
  • US-4,906,333 proposes an apparatus for removing dust in the boundary layer of a creped web.
  • This apparatus comprises a web-wide hood and a flat cover plate that closes the hood while defining a space in which subatmospheric pressure prevails, and forming a suction gap between the cover plate and an angled strip at the front side edge of the hood.
  • the cover plate is located immediately next to the creped web so that, during transport, it is held close to the cover plate and said suction gap will be located in the dust-containing boundary layer.
  • a lower part of the angled strip faces towards the space and lies parallel with the cover plate in order to define the suction gap, thereby ensuring that its width remains constant in the direction of flow of the air.
  • a suction gap formed in this way easily becomes clogged with dust after a relatively short time in operation and must therefore be cleaned at regular intervals.
  • Another problem is that the web may be damaged by the front edge and flat cover plate, causing a break in the web.
  • the problem is aggravated since the web is drawn by the air flow up towards the front edge of the cover plate.
  • Said space in the hood is irregular in shape, with several corners and edges that detrimentally affect that air flow so that local whirls of air containing dust occur, the flow of the air towards the outlet gradually deteriorates and dust collects along the walls near said corners and edges, which in turn results in poorer suction effect so that the suction gap becomes more easily clogged by dust particles for this reason as well.
  • US-5,466,298 discloses a dust suction system with upstream and downstream curved surfaces in a suction inlet opening which is directed vertically downwardly. Pressurized air is directed to the web and flows along the curved downstream wall of the suction inlet opening by the Coanda effect.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an improved apparatus for taking care of and removing the dust released during treatment of a moving web of fibre material, thereby achieving improved working environment for the operating personnel.
  • the apparatus according to the invention is characterized in that the main part is shaped as or substantially as part of a cylinder to provide a corresponding curved inner side in the suction chamber; that the suction gap comprises an inwardly converging outer section that defines a gradual throttling, and an inwardly diverging inner section that defines a gradual enlargement, said sections merging at a transition where the throttling is maximal, said transition having a minimal extension seen in the flow direction of the air through the suction gap; that the first inlet forming part comprises a flat surface that defines the whole or most of its side of said enlargement; and that the second inlet forming part comprises both a curved surface having predetermined radius and such an arc length that it defines the whole of its side of the throttling and an initial part of the enlargement section, and also an inner, flat surface extending at a tangent from the curved surface and forming an acute angle ⁇ with a tangent to the curved surface at said transition.

  • An empty reeling drum 14 has just been lowered to abutment with the supporting cylinder 13, beside which a recently finished reel 15 of soft crepe paper is shown.

Dusty air will also flow out of the hood covering the Yankee cylinder when the paper web 1 runs out of the hood, this dust then falling down to the paper web.

  • Designing the dust suction box in accordance with the present invention enables the dust to be efficiently removed with increased operating reliability and improved working environment.
  • the proposed geometry of the passages through which the dust-carrying air passes results in considerably less risk of dust adhering to the walls than with known constructions.
  • the valuable improvement of removing the dust from the areas surrounding the paper web is achieved by several cooperating, thoroughly thought-through features.
  • One feature resides in the design of the suction gap with an initial throttling to cause gradually increasing speed that culminates in the short transition to the subsequent expansion of the air with maximum throttling so that the dust is entrained with the increasing speed of the air flow, through the suction gap. The dust does not therefore have sufficient time to become adhered to the walls.
  • Another feature is the curved surfaces of the throttling.
  • the air endeavours to follow these curved surfaces while forming a thin layer of air resulting in a higher speed than the air outside said layer of air, so that the dust particles have even less time to become adhered to the curved surfaces.
  • a further feature is the cylindrical inner surface of the suction chamber which causes the air to be guided toward this and round in a spiral or rotary process towards the outlet or outlets, without disturbing local whirl formations which might allow the dust particles time to become adhered to the walls.
  • the invention is described in connection with the removal of dust released during the manufacture of a soft crepe paper web which is creped off a Yankee cylinder, but may of course be used for other moving webs of fibre material where dust is released during various types of treatment, such as in machines for cutting and re-winding paper webs, in printing machines and in the dry end of paper machines of types other than those specifically described above.
