Definitions

  • the invention relates to a press section for dewatering in a machine for producing a fibrous web, in particular a paper, board or tissue web, with a shoe press nip formed by a press roll and a counter roll, wherein the press roll a rotating flexible jacket, a supporting stationary yoke, a pressing member and pressing means, and wherein the pressing means press the pressing member to the jacket and thus the jacket to the counter roll.
  • the fibrous web is passed through the nip together with a felt or between two felts.
  • a felt or between two felts By the pressing force with which the press roll and the counter roll are pressed against each other, water from the web is pressed into the felt.
  • Such a press section is known for example from the document EP 1072721 A1 , which describes a press section with only a single shoe press nip. It is also described that after the shoe press nip on the press felt a channel for collecting the squeezed out water, which is thrown off the jacket of the press roll, is provided.
  • the shoe press nip has an extended compared to simple Walzenpressnips press zone.
  • the nip length is synonymous with the length of the press zone, which is given by the pressing element, the so-called shoe.
  • the jacket is provided with grooves or blind holes. For very high dewatering volumes, an ever-increasing storage volume is needed and therefore coats with blind holes or with a combination of blind holes and grooves are used. At the same time, however, the coat must not mark with its pattern, whereby the optimization is limited.
  • the object of the invention is now to provide an improved press section for efficient drainage of higher amounts of water with as few press nips.
  • the shell of the press roll is grooved, wherein the length of the grooves in the circumferential direction is greater than the nip length, and characterized in that in the web running direction in front of the shoe press nip on the side of the press roll a drip pan is provided.
  • a high hydraulic pressure is generated, so that water also splashes against the web running direction in larger quantities from the nip.
  • the grooves in the web running direction must be longer than the nip length.
  • the water is injected back evenly over the web width, so that no displacements and no uneven drainage occur.
  • the water jet must now also be collected in a suitable collecting trough, so that the water can not flow back onto the felt and thus no deterioration of the moisture cross profile occurs.
  • the press section has only a single press nip and thus all water must be squeezed out in this shoe press nip.
  • the pressing element according to the invention is designed so that a pressure profile with a steep gradient in the inlet third, ie in the first third of the nip length, is generated.
  • the gradient G in the upstream third is described by the ratio of the pressure p after one third of the nip length to the peak pressure p max in the pressure profile based on the ratio 1/3.
  • the width of the grooves transversely to the web running direction is preferably 0.5-2 mm, so that there is no danger of marking the fibrous web. Furthermore, the Mantel prefers no blind holes to use the effect as well as possible.
  • the so-called tray drainage can be intensified in high-speed paper machines and can only be achieved at slow speeds.
  • trough drainage is called when the squeezed water is not transported mainly in felts from the nip and discharged to suction elements, but when the squeezed water is transported in the storage volume of the shell and the backing roll from the nip and then thrown into drip trays. This is particularly efficient because it reduces the rewet from a felt to the fibrous web.
  • the fibrous web can be more compacted overall, which in some paper webs such. Newsprint or packaging paper is desired to achieve a high nip strength.
  • the press section has a further shoe press nip, which is preferably downstream of the shoe press nip according to the invention in the web running direction, for example in so-called tandem presses, the total dewatering performance can be increased and thus drying energy can be saved in a subsequent dryer section.
  • the invention can be used particularly positively in press sections in which the shoe press nip is designed for a pressing force of at least 600 kN / m, preferably of at least 800 kN / m, since particularly much water is obtained here.
  • the press roll is arranged above the paper web and the counter roll below the paper web.
  • the shoe press nip is covered with two felts, a top felt and an underfelt, and the fibrous web between these two felts is passed through the nip.
  • the felt or felts can also be designed as drainage tapes.
  • the invention is also applicable if only one felt is present. Second, an impermeable belt may then be provided.
  • the shoe press nip is covered with a first felt, which lies in the nip between the fibrous web and press roll and which is designed with a predominantly non-woven basic structure, a so-called scrim, wherein the basic structure at least two layers, preferably at least three Has layers. Due to the relatively tightly packed non-woven basic structure in contrast to fabrics, a low internal storage volume in the felt is achieved. This promotes the drainage of the water from the felt into the grooves of the shell and enhances backfeeding against the web running direction. Such a type of felt is also referred to as a tub drainage type.
  • the basic structure should contain at least 2/3 non-woven portion and only a small amount of woven structure. The basic structure is responsible for the tensile strength of the felt in the web running direction and across the web running direction.
  • the shoe press nip is covered with a second felt which lies in the nip between the fibrous web and the counter-roller and which is designed with a predominantly woven basic structure, the basic structure having at least two layers, preferably at least three layers.
  • a second felt which lies in the nip between the fibrous web and the counter-roller and which is designed with a predominantly woven basic structure, the basic structure having at least two layers, preferably at least three layers.
  • Such felts are also referred to as a tube trough dewatering type.
  • a third layer may be provided, which is formed as a membrane, that is, as a perforated or perforated polymer film, or as a random web, that is, as a nonwoven without preferred fiber orientation.
  • the third layer can be arranged between the two thread layers of the basic structure or above or below the two thread layers. If the third layer is a random web, it is also possible for one or both thread layers to be embedded in the random web.
  • a first felt, together with the fibrous web and a second felt should wrap around the backing roll, at a length of at least 30 mm prior to the beginning of the nip, i. the press zone between press roll and counter roll.
  • a second felt should wrap around the mating roll at an angle of at least 10 ° relative to the backing roll before the nip begins.
  • the drip pan should have a jammed edge, so that no water can flow back from the tub, and it should have a drain and preferably also a suction, so that the water and possibly also spray can be reliably dissipated.
  • the trough preferably has a gradient behind the edge of the stowage, so that the water flows away from the shoe press nip. Furthermore, it makes sense for the removal of the large amount of water sprayed back against the web running direction, if the flow is so large that a quantity of water of at least 20 l per minute and per meter web width, preferably dissipated by at least 30 l per minute and per meter web width can be.
  • this corresponds to at least 160 l / min, preferably at least 240 l / min.
  • this corresponds to a proportion of more than 10%, preferably more than 16% based on the total in the press section squeezed amount of water.
  • the amount of water flowing back against the web running direction should preferably amount to at least 15%, particularly preferably at least 20%, of the total amount of water squeezed out upward.
  • the drip tray In order to be able to catch as much of the back-splashed water, the drip tray should have an inlet edge which has at most 20 mm, preferably at most 10 mm distance from a first felt. This is made possible by a corresponding arrangement of the drip pan.
  • the entire drip pan and / or the inlet edge is adjustable.
  • suitable pivoting and adjusting devices can be provided.
  • the distribution of the squeezed amount of water upwards and downwards or forwards and backwards depends strongly on the pressing force, the production speed and the basis weight of the fibrous web.
  • An additional possibility to contribute to a desired high hydraulic pressure in the grooves of the shell at the beginning of the shoe press nip is, when a smaller depth of the grooves is used of at most 1.5 mm, preferably at most 0.9 mm, particularly preferably 0, 7 mm.
  • a larger pressure pulse at the beginning can also be achieved if the pressing element is designed such that a two-zone pressure profile with two local pressure maxima can be generated, wherein the second pressure maximum in the web running direction should be higher than the first pressure maximum in order to achieve a good overall dewatering performance , Between the two pressure maxima, the pressure should be at least 5%, preferably at least 10%, particularly preferably at least 15% below the value of the first maximum pressure in a partial region.
  • the pressing element is preferably a continuous shoe width over the width of the web, which is pressed by a plurality of pressing elements, which are arranged side by side in the web running direction, is pressed.
  • the pressing elements are generally preferred hydraulic pressure elements.
  • the pressure profile can be adapted to different operating conditions.
  • These different operating conditions can be caused for example by changes in the basis weight of the fibrous web, the speed, the pressing force, the felt or the fiber raw material.
  • the pressing element can be advantageously pressed by at least two rows of pressing elements, which are arranged one behind the other in the web running direction. This allows the pressure profile adjusted accordingly become. This is especially true when a bending soft executed in the web running direction pressing element is used.
  • the pressing element can consist of two pressing elements which can be pressed against one another and are arranged one behind the other in the direction of web travel.

  • the drip pan is pivotable and adjustable via the adjusting 15.1 and 16.1.
  • the further collecting trough 20.1 surrounds the pressing roller 2 on a large part of the circumference, as is often found in conversions. Since the counter-roller 3 and the second felt 6 eject water, even after the counter-roller 3 below the felt 6 yet another, not shown here collecting tray can be provided.
  • Fig.2 shows a section with details of the drip pan 10.2. Shown is the storage edge 11, which prevents water can flow back to the felt 5 and the fibrous web 1, and the adjoining slope until the expiry 12.2.
  • the leading edge 13 has a distance c from the first felt 5.
