Abstract
An apparatus and process for producing fibrous nonwoven fabrics of at least two superposed fibrous web layers of equal or different structure is disclosed by using at least two successively arranged cards (2, 5) in a card set, means for discharging the fibrous webs from the card or the like in one direction, the discharged fibrous web layers being fed to a finishing unit (15) such as a calendar and the like, each card being provided with at least one doffing point (3, 4; 3',4'). The improvement comprises a conveying means (7, 12) carried adjacent and following the doffing point which is tiltable upwardly or downwardly at a predetermined angle. Transport devices (8, 9, 13, 14, 16) are mounted above and beneath the cards in communication with conveying means for transporting discharged webs.
Claims6
A process for producing nonwoven fibrous webs of at least two superposed layers of equal or different structure by using at least two successively arranged cards or the like and by discharging the fibrous webs from the cards, the discharged fibrous webs being supplied to a finishing unit or the like, such as a calendar, characterized by removing each fibrous web from said cards, and selectively feeding each said web in a direction below or above the web layer of the next card.
The process for producing a nonwoven fibrous fabric having at least two superimposed fibrous web layers comprising:
- arranging at least two cards successively in a card set wherein each card has at least one doffing point;
- discharging said fibrous webs from said doffing point of said cards selectively in upward and downward directions to a transporting means;
- transporting said discharge fibrous web selectively either above and below said cards with said transporting means which receives said fibrous webs from said doffing point;
- and
- transporting said fibrous web layers to a finishing unit and the like.
