Abstract

1,010,146. Opening and lap-forming machines. BIRFIELD ENGINEERING Ltd. March 7, 1962 [Dec. 8, 1960], No. 42223/60. Heading D1N. In a machine for forming webs of randomly arranged fibres and comprising a condenser including a suction box mounted within a foraminous drum and a blower to develop an air stream that carries fibres to the suction box, the suction box is provided with interior baffles to ensure uniform suction along the length of foraminous drum. The baffles may be perforated and, where two baffles are employed, they may be mutually inclined. The invention may be arranged within a machine that includes a hopper 1, with a floor consisting of an inching conveyer 2 and from which fibres are drawn by an inclined conveyer 3 swept by an orbital action comb 5 to be delivered by a feed belt 7 to a toothed pre-opening drum 8. From the drum 8 fibres are collected by a stream of air delivered along the duct 9 by a blower 22 and passed to the foraminous surface of a condenser 10. Any fibres that pass through the foraminous surface are returned to the blower 22 and into the air stream which passes beneath the preopening drum 8. Material from the condenser 10 is fed to a second opening drum 23 and condenser 29. Two condensing drums and a feed member may be mounted sufficiently close to provide nips to consolidate the material.
