Abstract
The invention relates to a conveyor line (1) for the continuous production of drywall boards as well as a slurry distributing device (22) which is used in this conveyor line (1). The distributing device is used for the uniform and low-speed flow distribution of slurries (20).
Claims14
A slurry distributing device comprising:
- a roller conveyer, wherein three or more rollers are disposed in parallel with one another in a common plane such that gussets between the individual rollers are formed for enabling occurrence of backflow of slurry, the three or more rollers are rotatably mounted about their longitudinal axes and are disposed essentially perpendicular to a delivery direction of the slurry, wherein the slurry distributing device is equipped to be supplied with the slurry from at least one mixing device, to adapt a speed of the slurry to a conveying device speed and to distribute the slurry uniformly over a desired width and then to deliver the distributed slurry onto a lower layer, wherein the slurry distributing device actively transports the slurry.
A conveyor line for producing gypsum plasterboards, comprising a conveying device, at least one mixing device for mixing at least one slurry and at least one slurry distributing device comprising a roller conveyer, wherein three or more rollers are disposed in parallel with one another in a common plane such that gussets between the individual rollers are formed for enabling occurrence of backflow of slurry, the three or more rollers are rotatably mounted about their longitudinal axes and are disposed essentially perpendicular to a delivery direction of the slurry;
- wherein the at least one slurry distributing device is disposed between a supply device for the slurry and delivery of the slurry, and wherein the at least one slurry distributing device is equipped to adapt a speed of the slurry to a conveying device speed and to deliver the slurry supplied from the at least one mixing device essentially uniformly onto a lower layer, wherein the lower layer is the conveying device itself or a casing material lying on the conveying device and preferably fed continuously, wherein the at least one slurry distributing device is equipped to actively transport the slurry.
