Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to papermaking, and more particularly to fabrics used in papermaking.
  • a water slurry, or suspension, of cellulosic fibers (known as the paper "stock") is fed onto the top of the upper run of an endless belt of woven wire and/or synthetic material that travels between two or more rollers.
  • the belt often referred to as a "forming fabric,” provides a papermaking surface on the upper surface of its upper run which operates as a filter to separate the cellulosic fibers of the paper stock from the aqueous medium, thereby forming a wet paper web.
  • the aqueous medium drains through mesh openings of the forming fabric, known as drainage holes, by gravity alone or with assistance from one or more suction boxes located on the lower surface (i.e.. the "machine side") of the upper run of the fabric.
  • the paper web After leaving the forming section, the paper web is transferred to a press section of the paper machine, in which it is passed through the nips of one or more pairs of pressure rollers covered with another fabric, typically referred to as a "press felt.” Pressure from the rollers removes additional moisture from the web; the moisture removal is often enhanced by the presence of a "batt" layer on the press felt.
  • the paper is then conveyed to a drier section for further moisture removal. After drying, the paper is ready for secondary processing and packaging.
  • Press felts typically include one or more base fabric layers; these can be "flat-woven” and formed after weaving into an endless belt, or can be woven in endless form.
  • the flat-woven process is preferred, as it is typically less expensive and more versatile than the endless weaving process.
  • the felt is cut widthwise and reattached to simplify installation on a paper machine, in which case some of the advantages of endless weaving (such as the absence of a seam in the fabric) are lost.
  • flat weaving a fabric of a base layer requires that provision be made for joining it into endless belts.
  • Such joints should be constructed in such a manner that they are sufficiently strong to withstand the extreme load, temperature, and wear conditions the press felt experiences, yet do not cause the surface of the press felt above the seam to unduly mark the paper.
  • One popular method of joining the base fabric of a press felt is to form loops with machine direction yarns on each end of the base fabric. To form the flat- woven base fabric into an endless belt, the ends of the fabric are placed adjacent to each other, with each of the loops on one end positioned between two loops on the other end in interdigitating fashion. A "pin” (usually formed of mutilfilament polymeric fiber strands) is then inserted into all of the loops to join the ends.
  • the batt layer(s) are needled or otherwise attached to the base layer, the batt layer(s) are cut at the seam location, the pin is removed, and the finished press felt is shipped to a paper mill. Once at the paper mill, the press felt can be installed by placing it onto a paper machine, then inserting another (usually more flexible) multifilament pin into the loops. Examples of this type of seam are described in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,
  • the base fabric layer itself contains multiple fabric layers (e., is a "laminated” base layer).
  • a felt may contain a "duplex" fabric (Le., a fabric having upper and lower sets of machine direction yarns interwoven with at least one set of cross machine direction yarns - also known as a "double layer” fabric) as well as a finer mesh single layer fabric (i.e.. a fabric having only one set each of machine direction yarns and cross machine direction yarns). This combination provides a good balance of strength and durability to the felt with relatively little marking.
  • the felt is constructed by flat weaving the duplex fabric, endless weaving the single layer fabric, joining the duplex fabric with a pin as described above, overlaying the single layer fabric over the duplex fabric, needling both fabric layers with batt to form machine side and paper side batt layers, removing the pin from the double layer fabric and cutting the batt layers and the single layer fabric at the seam to form a flat structure.
  • the felt is installed on the papermaking machine by inserting a new, more flexible pin into the duplex fabric layer.
  • This press felt construction has at least one significant shortcoming.
  • the single layer fabric When the single layer fabric is cut, its yarns, particularly its cross machine direction yarns, tend to fray somewhat at the cut.
  • the frayed ends of the finer mesh single layer fabric can interfere with the manner in which the cut portion of the batt layer (which is often a flap of batt layer material) overlays the base fabric.
  • paper formed with such a felt can have an inconsistent appearance and be more susceptible to breaking on the paper machine due to the presence of the seam of the felt.
  • the papermaker's press felt of the present invention includes a base fabric layer (preferably sandwiched between a paper side batt layer and a machine side batt layer) comprising a first fabric and a second fabric.
  • the first fabric includes machine direction yams and cross machine direction yams interwoven with the machine direction yams, wherein the first fabric has first and second ends with loops.
  • the loops of the first end are interdigitated with the loops of the second end and receive a pin to form the first fabric into an endless belt having a seam.
  • the second fabric is formed into an endless belt overlying the first fabric and includes machine direction yams and cross machine direction yams interwoven with the machine direction yams.
  • a set of the cross machine direction yams is formed of a low melt material and forms a low melt band that traverses the fabric.
  • the low melt band is positioned to overlie the seam of the first fabric.
  • the low melt yams particularly after a finishing heat treatment, have a lower tendency to fray after cutting; thus, they are less likely to interfere with a cut seam in adjacent portions of attached batt layers.
  • Such a fabric can be constructed by a method of the present invention, which comprises the following steps.
  • the machine direction yams and cross machine direction yams of the first fabric are interwoven such that the ends of the fabric have the aforementioned loops.
  • the loops are then positioned in interdigitated relationship, and a pin is inserted into the loops to form a seam that joins the first and second ends of the first fabric, thereby forming the first fabric into an endless belt.
  • the machine direction yams and cross machine direction yams of the second fabric are then interwoven (preferably through a flat weaving process) such that cross machine direction yams formed of a low melt material forms a low melt band that traverses said fabric.

Abstract

Cette invention concerne un feutre (14) de presse de machine à papier comprenant une couche (22) de tissu de base qui est de préférence prise en sandwich entre une couche de natte côté papier et une couche de natte côté machine, et qui comprend un premier tissu (24) et un second tissu (36). Le premier tissu (24) comprend des fils (26) orientés dans le sens de la machine, ainsi que des fils (28) orientés en travers du sens de la machine et tissés aux premiers fils (26), le premier tissu (24) comportant une première et une seconde extrémités (29a, 29b) avec des boucles (30, 32). Les boucles (30) de la première extrémité (29a) sont intercalées avec les boucles (32) de la seconde extrémité (29b) et reçoivent une broche (34) de sorte que le premier tissu (24) se transforme en une bande sans fin comportant un joint. Le second tissu (36) est quant à lui mis sous forme d'une bande sans fin qui recouvre le premier tissu (24), et qui comprend des fils (38) orientés dans le sens de la machine ainsi que des fils (40) orientés en travers du sens de la machine et tissés aux premiers fils (38). Un ensemble de fils (44) orientés en travers du sens de la machine se compose d'un matériau fusible à basse température et définit un ruban (42) fusible à basse température qui traverse le tissu (36). Ce ruban (42) fusible à basse température est disposé de manière à recouvrir le joint du premier tissu (24). Les fils (44) fusibles à basse température, notamment après un traitement thermique de finition, possèdent une tendance réduite à l'effilochage après avoir été coupés. Ils sont ainsi moins prompts à se mêler à un joint coupé dans les parties adjacentes de couches de nattes attachées.
