Abstract (en)

[origin: US5437080A] PCT No. PCT/DE92/00119 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 20, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 20, 1993 PCT Filed Aug. 20, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO92/14872 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 3, 1992.A device for opening flocculent fibrous materials, including a housing and a supply connection pipe having an end extending into a lower portion of the housing for introducing into the housing a negative pressure transport air current conveying fiber flocks. A hollow cylinder is provided that has one end connected to the end of the supply connection pipe, an open end opposite to the one end, and a diameter larger than a diameter of the end of the supply connection pipe. The hollow cylinder forms an annular chamber within the housing. The device further includes a discharge connection pipe connectable to the housing for discharging the fibrous material. The housing, supply connection pipe, hollow cylinder and discharge connection pipe collectively define a pneumatic conveying path for the fibrous material. Additionally provided is a drivable opening disc disposed within the housing and positioned at a distance from and parallel to the open end of the hollow cylinder to extend across the open end. The disc includes a plurality of pointed spikes each projecting towards the hollow cylinder for processing material as it is conveyed along the pneumatic conveying path.
