Abstract
Disclosed is an apparatus for molding a fibrous material mainly containing waste paper, in which a fibrous material mainly containing waste paper is thrown into a cylindrical cylinder from a raw material throwing port, being fed to the leading edge of the cylindrical casing by the feeding action of a rotary screw provided in the cylindrical casing, and discharged from the leading edge, the apparatus comprising: a molding/discharging member provided at the leading edge of the cylindrical casing for compressing the fibrous material fed to the leading edge of the casing into a specified shape and discharging the compressed fibrous material.
Claims10
An apparatus for molding a fibrous material mainly containing waste paper, comprising:
- a cylindrical casing having an inner surface, a raw material throwing port and a leading edge;
- a rotary screw provided on a rotational shaft in said cylindrical casing for feeding fibrous raw material to be discharged from said leading edge;
- a molding/discharging member provided at the leading edge of said cylindrical casing for compressing said fibrous material fed to the leading edge of said casing into a specified shape and discharging said compressed fibrous material, said molding/discharging member comprising a molding die having at least one discharge hole,
- wherein the diameter of said at least one discharge hole is from 10 to 40% of the diameter of said rotary screw.
An apparatus for molding a fibrous material mainly containing waste paper, comprising:
- a cylindrical casing having an inner surface, a raw material throwing port and a leading edge;
- a rotary screw provided on a rotational shaft in said cylindrical casing for feeding fibrous raw material to be discharged from said leading edge;
- a molding/discharging member provided at the leading edge of said cylindrical casing for compressing said fibrous material fed to the leading edge of said casing into a specified shape and discharging said compressed fibrous material, said rotational shaft being rotationally supported at said leading edge,
- wherein the cross-section of said cylindrical casing adjacent said leading edge becomes smaller in the direction approaching said leading edge to define a restricting structure, and wherein said rotary screw does not extend into said restricting structure, thereby defining a cavity in said restricting structure between said leading edge and said rotary screw, and
- wherein said molding/discharging member comprises a molding die having at least one discharge hole and the diameter of said at least one discharged hole is from 10 to 40% of the diameter of said rotary screw.
