Abstract

An opening machine for fibrous insulating material which is applied by insufflation comprises a rotating brush of cylindrical form with radial bristles of supple, plastic material. The machine may have a fixed, linear brush of similar material, whose bristles overlap those of the rotating brush. The opened material is carried out of the machine in a current of air through a variable-aperture exit port. The use of a brush in place of a beater with rigid arms produces a greater volume of opened fibre from a given weight of material since the brush does not break the fibres. It is less dangerous to the operator, and the brush itself has a longer life, partic. when handling abrasive material such as rockwool.

Description

La présente invention est relative à une machine à carder les matériaux isolants du genre de ceux se présentant, généralement, sous la forme de fibres comprimées de façon à occuper un espace minimal durant le transport. The present invention relates to a machine for carding insulating materials of the kind of those which are generally in the form of fibers compressed so as to occupy a minimum space during transport.

De telles fibres sont destinées à l'isolation thermique et phonique des constructions et leur mise en oeuvre est effectuée par insufflation, opération qui nécessite une division préalable de la masse comprimée. Such fibers are intended for thermal and sound insulation of constructions and their implementation is carried out by insufflation, an operation which requires a prior division of the compressed mass.

Actuellement, on utilise des machines à carder comportant une trémie au fond de laquelle est disposé un organe de cardage constitué par un arbre rotatif présentant des bras radiaux rigides-. Currently, carding machines are used comprising a hopper at the bottom of which is disposed a carding member constituted by a rotary shaft having rigid radial arms.

L'expérience a montré qu'une telle machine était dangereuse car l'organe de cardage se comporte, en fait, comme un ensemble de couteaux rotatifs. Experience has shown that such a machine is dangerous because the carding member behaves, in fact, like a set of rotary knives.

Par ailleurs, on a constaté que pour une masse donnée de fibres comprimées, l'augmentation du volume après le passage à travers la machine n'était pas suffisant. On peut expliquer ce phénomène par le fait que les bras de l'organe de cardage cassent les fibres et qu' il en résulte une plus grande densité du produit cardé. Furthermore, it has been found that for a given mass of compressed fibers, the increase in volume after passing through the machine was not sufficient. This phenomenon can be explained by the fact that the arms of the carding member break the fibers and that this results in a greater density of the carded product.

La présente invention, qui remédie à ces inconvénients, est remarquable en ce que l'organe de cardage est réalisé, dans sa forme la plus simple, par une brosse rotative. The present invention, which overcomes these drawbacks, is remarkable in that the carding member is produced, in its simplest form, by a rotary brush.

L'invention sera mieux comprise par la description qui va suivre, faite en se référant au dessin annexé à titre d'exemple indicatif seulement, sur lequel
La figure I est une vue en perspective, avec arrachement partiel, d'une machine conforme à l'invention;
La figure 2 est une vue partielle, en coupe.
The invention will be better understood from the description which follows, made with reference to the attached drawing by way of indicative example only, in which
Figure I is a perspective view, partially broken away, of a machine according to the invention;
Figure 2 is a partial view, in section.

En se reportant au dessin, on voit que la machine se compose essentiellement d'une trémie 1, dans laquelle on place le produit à carder, dont l'orifice de sortie 2 est raccordé, par l'entremise d'un ventilateur 3, à une conduite d'évacuation 4.  Referring to the drawing, it can be seen that the machine essentially consists of a hopper 1, in which the product to be carded is placed, the outlet orifice 2 of which is connected, by means of a fan 3, to an evacuation pipe 4.

Selon l'invention, le fond de la trémie 1 comporte une brosse rotative 5, à poils souples, ceux-ci étant, de préférence, réalisés en matière plastique telle que celles dénommées "nylon" ou "rilsan". La brosse est entrainée par un moteur 6 électrique. According to the invention, the bottom of the hopper 1 comprises a rotary brush 5, with flexible bristles, these being preferably made of plastic material such as those called "nylon" or "rilsan". The brush is driven by an electric motor 6.

L'emploi d'une brosse rotative présente de nombreux avantages. Ainsi, l'introduction intempestive de la main de l'opérateur dans la machine est sans danger. The use of a rotating brush has many advantages. Thus, the untimely introduction of the operator's hand into the machine is without danger.

On a constaté aussi que pour une masse donnée de produit, le volume du produit cardé était bien supérieur à celui résultant de l'emploi d'un organe de cardage rigide du genre précité. It was also found that for a given mass of product, the volume of the carded product was much greater than that resulting from the use of a rigid carding member of the aforementioned type.

Enfin, l'expérience a montré que, lorsque la machine était utilisée pour des produits très abrasifs, tels que la laine de roche, la longévité de la brosse rotative était bien supérieure à celle des organes usuels de cardage. Finally, experience has shown that, when the machine was used for very abrasive products, such as rock wool, the life of the rotary brush was much longer than that of the usual carding devices.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la brosse 5 coopère avec un peigne 7 rendu solidaire de la trémie. Le peigne 7 est constitue de la même façon que la brosse 5 et, de préférence, les poils de l'un s'intercalent entre ceux de l'autre, comme montré sur la figure 2. According to another characteristic of the invention, the brush 5 cooperates with a comb 7 made integral with the hopper. The comb 7 is formed in the same way as the brush 5 and, preferably, the bristles of one are inserted between those of the other, as shown in FIG. 2.

Naturellement, des moyens sont prévus pour permettre le réglage du positionnement du peigne 7 par rapport à la brosse 5. Naturally, means are provided to allow the positioning of the comb 7 relative to the brush 5 to be adjusted.

La section de l'orifice de sortie 2 peut être réglée par l'entremise d'un volet 8 tandis que celle de l'orifice 9 d'une entrée d'air peut être réglée par un volet 10. The section of the outlet orifice 2 can be adjusted by means of a shutter 8 while that of the orifice 9 of an air inlet can be adjusted by a shutter 10.

Bien entendu, la présente invention ne se limite pas au mode de réalisation décrit et représenté mais s'étend, au contraire, à toutes variantes de matières, formes et dimensions. Of course, the present invention is not limited to the embodiment described and shown but extends, on the contrary, to all variants of materials, shapes and dimensions.

C'est ainsi, entre autres, qu'on pourrait utiliser plusieurs brosses parallèles. Thus, among other things, one could use several parallel brushes.

C'est ainsi, encore, qu'on pourrait utiliser des brosses dont les poils, dirigés vers le produit à traiter,
s'étendraient sensiblement parallèlement à l'axe de rotation de la brosse.
Thus, again, we could use brushes whose bristles, directed towards the product to be treated,
extend substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the brush.

Enfin, il faut signaler que les parois internes de la trémie sont traitées avec une peinture comportant un produit résistant à l'abrasion. Finally, it should be noted that the internal walls of the hopper are treated with a paint comprising an abrasion-resistant product.

Naturellement, l'emploi de la machine n'est pas limité au traitement des produits fibreux mais il s'étend aussi à celui des matériaux compacts, tels que des blocs de mousse synthétique, qui peuvent être réduits en grains légers par l'action des brosses rotatives.  Naturally, the use of the machine is not limited to the treatment of fibrous products but it also extends to that of compact materials, such as blocks of synthetic foam, which can be reduced into light grains by the action of rotating brushes.
