Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0122769A2] Apparatus for extracting fibres from a fibre containing plant material has a set of pinned rollers (1, 2, 3) having pins (4) co-operating with a slotted grid (5) along which the plant material travels, the pins (4) aligning the plant material. Crushing rollers (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13) tend to separate the fibres from the unwanted bark and other pith-like "chiv" in the plant material and a rotatable pinned roller (25) downstream of the crushing rollers (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13) combs out fibres from the crushed, aligned plant material.
