UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
METHOD OF LOOSENING PARALLEL FIBER BUNCHES BY THE WET PROCESS.
Application filed October 16, 1925, Serial No. 62,906, and in Germany DecemberlS, 1924.
In recent times the tendency has arisen to replace cotton by other spinning fibers. In particular two processes have been suggested for this purpose: In the first place the cottonizing of certain fibrouswaste materials, hemp shives and the like which have hitherto been more or less worthless'and in the second place the manufacture of fibrous material capable of being spun on cotton Ina-- chines, which is obtained by chemical means,
\ that-is to say, in the manner of artificial silk. A special importance is in both these cases attached to the problem of loosening the individual fibers from'one another as completely as possible in order that the spinning may be carried out easily and without damaging the fibrous material.
In the cottonizing of natural fibrous waste materials use is made for the purpose of loosening the individual fibers from one another of known devices-by means of which the fiber bunches coming out from between rollers are worked up with sharp jets of water and are thus pulled to pieces. It is also comparatively expensive in providing the apparatus and in working.
The invention consists in suspending the' fiber bunches in a suitable liquid, hot soap suds for example, and this suspension is now allowed to fall freely against impact surfaces' The kinetic energy of the splashing water is in this case also operative upon the parallel fiber bunches and the latter are loosened. This action can be enhanced in a convenient manner by the fact that with a suitable height of fall of the suspension, the process is repeated as often as maybe desired. the suspension being allowed to rush down from one impact surface to the next in succession. The fibrous material is pref erably added to the liquid in uniform quantities at the commencement of the downward flow. In this way the risk is obviated of certain quantities of fiber prematurely floating free from one another and encircling the fiber bunches like a net, which leads to an irregular loosenin The fibrous material is finall taken out, centrifuged or squeezed and ried.
The process is characterized by the fact that it is particularly well adapted for the treatment of artificial fibers.
In the accompanying drawing a piece of apparatus suitable for carying out the process is dia rammatically illustrated by way of exam'p e.
The fibrous material passes through a cutting device a on to a conveying band I), which brings the material to the upper mouth of a. tower d. At 0 the liquid, for example soap suds, enters and flows together with the fibrous material into the tower and on to the impact surfaces one after another. At f the fibrous material treated enters for example a hydroextractor g.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we claim is:,
1. A method of loosening parallel fiber bunches by the wet process, comprising suspending said fiber bunches in a suitable liquid and letting the suspension fall freely against impact surfaces.
'2. A method of loosening parallel fiber bunches by the wet process, comprisin suspending said fiber bunches in a suitable liquid and letting the suspension fall freely and repeatedly against impact surfaces.
A method of loosening parallel fiber bunchesby the wet process, comprising suspending sa'id fiber bunches in sea suds and letting the suspension fall free y against impact surfaces.
4. A 'method of loosening parallel fiber bunches by the wet process, comprisin sus pending said fiber bunches in soap suds and letting the suspension fall freely and re peatedly against impact surfaces as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof we have signed our names to this specification.
