Definitions

  • Collecting chamber comprising at least one adjustable wall and process for collecting of mineral wool fiber
  • Mineral wool fiberization apparatus depends on flow of fiber which is created by elongation of mineral melt droplets after ejection from spinning wheels of said melt fiberization apparatus.
  • Homogenous structure of primary layer of fiber deposited within melt fiberization apparatus is tantamount to high quality of final product, i.e. mineral wool panels.
  • final product i.e. mineral wool panels.
  • spinner i.e. device comprised of spinning wheels onto which melt is falling to be expelled in form of droplets enlogating into fibers
  • secondary air flows induced by suction fans from collecting chamber.
  • quality of finished product is decreased if shot is present within the structure - this shot formed by frozen droplets of mineral melt which do not elongate into fibers.
  • shots are between 10 to 30 micrometers in diameter.
  • other forms or clumps can be present resulting from various interactions between melt flow and air flow next to spinning wheels.
  • melt fiberization apparatus Underlying problems in melt fiberization are formation of vortices and recirculations within collecting chamber of melt fiberization apparatus, bonding of fiber to walls of collecting chamber, presence of shot in primary layer of fiber deposited onto perimeter mesh of collecting drum or conveyer belt or some other collecting means of collecting chamber, and non-uniform deposition of fiber into primary layer of fiber deposited onto perimeter wall or collecting means (such as conveyer belt or rotating drum) of collecting chamber.
  • a typical fiberizing apparatus in state of the art is described in EP 1409423.
  • Typical apparatus of the sort of 3 to 4 fiberizing rotating wheels also known as the spinning wheels, or rotating wheels (term used in this patent application for description of new invention), or rotors.
  • fiberizing apparatus is customary connected to a collecting chamber for collecting mineral fiber, equipped with some sort of mechanism for continuous collecting mineral fiber, for instance conveyor belt or rotating drum.
  • the mineral melt discharged from the melting furnace or similar device for heating up and melting raw materials used in mineral wool formation forms a nearly vertical melt stream as it is poured onto the spinning machine.
  • the melt stream is directed towards the mantle surface of the first wheel where it partly adheres to the surface, is drawn in motion and forms a melt film.
  • a part of the melt forms, with the aid of the centrifugal force, liquid ligaments that solidify to the mineral wool fibers while the remaining quantity of the melt is thrown out as a cascade of drops against the mantle surface of the adjacent second wheel in the series.
  • Binder may be applied on the formed mineral fibers, either during fiber formation or afterwards, in form of a droplet spray.
  • the mineral fibers formed on the wheels of the spinning machine are transported away from the point of origin on the melt film, initially in the radial direction due to the centrifugal force.
  • Blow-off centerline is an imaginary line from center of gravity of spinner(s) plane and extending essentially normal to said plane toward primary layer depositing means (e.g. perforated conveyer belts or drums or other similar devices).
  • Mass fraction of fiber in air flow is relatively small requiring rather large air flow, and due to high velocity of blow-off on spinner nozzles also increased volumetric flow of suction from the collecting chamber in order to reduce or prevent turbulence, vortices, or recirculation.
  • For fiber formation on the spinner one needs air velocities up to 150 m/s.
  • the velocity of air through the pores or holes in the conveyer belt or drum transporter is much lower, between 4-10 m/s as higher velocity would cause short fibers to exit through the pores or tearing of primary layer of deposited fiber. Comparing these values results in conclusion that there are relatively high velocity gradients requiring optimization of geometry of inlet part of collecting chamber, and also middle part of said collecting chamber in order to solve above referenced technical problems.
  • Collecting chamber comprising at least one adjustable wall and process for collecting of mineral wool solves above referenced technical problems by manipulating cross section and shape of entry zone (comprised of shot separation section /inlet part/ (I) and/or adjustable section /middle part/ (II)).
  • Such manipulation may serve three purposes: to reduce vortices and/or recirculation cells within collecting chamber, to separate shot from fiber, and to induce backflow where beneficial.
  • this manipulation is performed by means of at least one adjustable wall, said adjustable wall adjusted by moving, preferably in rotatable manner about an axis, preferably in lateral direction relative to air flow within said collecting chamber. In so doing, the cross section of flow comprised at least of air, and fiber, is changed.
  • said adjustable wall is adjusting to flow and other parameters as described herein.
  • said collecting chamber may comprise at least one shot collector, preferably two, more preferably three shot collectors.
  • Said adjustment may be a result of visual inspection of primary layer of fiber as deposited on collecting means, or some other inspection means, but it can also be a result of predetermined action of an operator based on experience.
  • said adjustable wall is comprised of a leading edge, preferably in form of a shot roller, either rotating (in either rotation direction), or not, positioned laterally to incoming air flow from a spinner or plurality thereof.
  • the effects of this leading edge may be augmented by means of an apron in close proximity of said leading edge, or attached to it, either permanently or detachable, and in such case both of them (i.e. leading edge, and apron) form said adjustable wall.
  • Apron for purposes of this application refers to a wall, or part of the wall, being adjustable, or not, being adjacent to, or essentially parallel to, or attached to, or in close proximity to any wall of said collecting chamber.
  • Apron may also refer to a membrane, or sheet metal, porous or non- porous, perforated or non-perforated attachment to said leading edge, whether attachment is flexible, or fixed.
  • Apron can be resilient or rigid, it can be movable (rotatable or otherwise movable) or immobile.
  • Apron can be made of a single part, or plurality of parts.
  • this manipulation of flow field is performed by means of two said leading edges preferably shot rollers, to each side of air flow, with associated aprons, as presented in Figure 3 accompanying this application.
  • the details of said preferred embodiment comprising leading edge and associated apron are shown, in particularly, in Figures 4, 5 and 6.
  • FIG 4 shows neutral position of said leading edge which is shot roller (15) in this preferred embodiment, with accompanying apron (12), both of them forming adjustable wall.
  • said adjustable wall is rotatable about an axis. It may rotate toward blow-off centerline (Figure 5), for preset angle (32), or rotate away from said blow-off centerline ( Figure 6), for another preset angle (33), or it may rotate to any desired position within these two limits.
  • This rotation of adjustable wall is an example of adjustable wall adjustment as described herein.
  • First is the flow of fibers which is toward the center of coaxial primary air flow (closer to blow-off centerline).
  • Second is flow of shots formed from non-fiberized melt (further away from blow-off centerline as compared to fiber flow). These shots may be almost spherical in shape and further, their mass causes their trajectories not to depend on intense primary coaxial air flow as much as on inertial trajectories of fibers. As a result, shot to fiber ratio is usually higher toward the outskirt of air flow and lower toward its center.
  • Said adjustable wall, preferably side adjustable wall can be used for at least partial separation of flow predominantly composed of shot from flow predominantly composed of fiber by simply presenting an obstacle around which the flow separates - flow with higher shot to fiber ratio remains on the outside of said adjustable wall, preferably side adjustable wall, and flow with higher fiber to . shot ratio remains on the inside of said adjustable wall, preferably side adjustable wall continuing toward said collecting means.
  • Fibers should (in ideal case) also be equally collected by collecting means of collecting chamber as a thin homogenous layer (usually on perforated mesh). Boundary between fiber flow and shot flow is not fixed, rather it is transient, which means that there are always some shots present in the fiber flow but their amount generally decreases with distance away from blow-off centerline. Shots are not wanted in the primary layer, so they should be separated from the fiber flow as much as possible. It is therefore aim of this invention to help in this process, i.e. in decrease of shot amount in fiber flow and consequently increase in fiber layer quality.
  • Shot concentration in fiber flow is difficult or even impossible to predict in design phase of collecting chamber and is also dependent on other parameters such as air flow conditions and spinner or spineers rotation speed. It is therefore desirable to design such chamber which could adapt to flow conditions and consequently as much shot would be extracted from fiber flow as possible.
  • This basic idea is embodied in providing at least one adjustable wall of said collecting chamber. Said adjustable wall would change its position relative to other walls in such a way to improve characteristics of the flow and reduce concentration of shot in final product.
  • At least one adjustable wall preferably side adjustable wall is used to adjust collecting chamber inlet cross section so the best product (primary layer) is achieved.
  • Self-cleaning function is realized by means of a scraper, said scraper scraping off accumulated material from shot roller which has deposited on it during operation of melt fiberization apparatus.
  • adjustable lower shot roller is also provided in one of the embodiments to prevent shots accumulation on collecting means.
  • adjustable wall preferably side adjustable wall or plurality thereof comprising leading edge, preferably shot roller or plurality thereof can be moved toward centerline of blow-off air flow and more shots are separated from fiber flow, but on the other hand there is less fiber collected which means lower production capacity of production line.
  • adjustable wall preferably side adjustable wall comprised of leading edge (15) and apron (12), said leading edge preferably shot roller in one of embodiments may be such that backflow coming from collecting means is directed back to main fiber flow located essentially around blow-off centerline flow. Namely, for hydrodynamic reasons it can happen that backflow is induced next to collecting chamber walls (41). This backflow (41) reduces amount of fiber collected and increases loss. It is beneficial to have this backflow (41) redirected again toward collecting means in order to cause said fiber to be deposited. This is achieved by changing position of adjustable wall so backflow (41) is redirected into main fiber flow going from spinner to collecting means, said fiber flow flowing essentially around blow-off centerline.
  • This change in adjustable wall position causes fibers to return and accumulate on collecting means and are not lost as waste on shot conveyor.
  • This backflow-mainflow can be also seen as a recirculation cell, but in this case such recirculation cell is intended result as opposed to uncontrolled recirculation cells actually causing fiber to clump.
  • This recirculation cell is controlled by movement of said adjustable wall.
  • said side walls comprising shot rollers and/or associated aprons are water cooled to prevent fiber sticking and binder solidification.
  • Shot rollers are equipped with scrapers that clean thin layer of accumulated fiber from its surface. If there is no immediate cleanup of the surface that is closest to the spinner rotors accumulation speed of fibers becomes progressive this means fibers are accumulated faster and faster. When enough fibers is collected a curtain shaped feature is formed and when mass of it is large enough it fall off dawn to waste conveyor or air flow sucks it on collecting means. Both events are negative, first presents fiber loses and second pure homogeneity of primary layer.
  • Above referenced technical problem is also solved by a process comprised of following steps:
  • This process may further comprise step of adjusting an angle (32, 33) of said adjustable wall (15, 12) to either obtain better quality and less quantity of primary layer if said adjustable wall (15, 12) is moved toward blow-off centerline, or worse quality and larger quantity of primary layer if said adjustable wall is moved away from blow-off centerline, said quality relating to ratio of shot to fiber, higher ratio of fiber to shot meaning higher quality.
  • the process as disclosed in this application also comprises step of directing backflow (41) of said fiber flow coming from collecting means (1) toward main fiber flow around blow-off centerline in order for said fiber flow coming from perforated means to be re- entrained by main fiber flow and deposited on said collecting means to reduce loss of fiber.
