Further, when the inclined cutter blade and the front cutter blade are damaged during use, the flat surface facing the papermaking material is also bored and damaged, attachment and detachment of the flat surface and the cutter blade can be performed in one replacement operation, improving the workability of replacement.
  • the papermaking material When the flat surface facing the papermaking material is bored and damaged, the papermaking material is accumulated in the damaged portion, and the accumulated papermaking material is not disintegrated, and suppresses movement of the papermaking material in the vicinity of the inclined cutter blade and the front cutter blade, decreasing the dissolving efficiency. Further, accumulation of the papermaking material increases only loads onto the rotor.

Moreover, since the flat surface contacts with the back surface of the rotor, that is, the back surface of the rotor is covered with the flat surface connecting the inclined cutter blade to the front cutter blade, the back surface of the rotor is prevented from being damaged the papermaking material. Further, when the inclined cutter blade and the front cutter blade are damaged during use, the flat surface facing the papermaking material is also bored and damaged, so that attachment and detachment of the flat surface and the cutter blade can be performed in one replacement operation, improving the workability of replacement.
