Assignee:
Johns Manville International, Inc. - Denver CO
International Classification:
B26D 162
US Classification:
83105, 83913, 83950
Abstract:
A chopper for chopping fibers or fiber strands having a back up roll and a blade roll containing blades that work against a peripheral surface of the back up roll and a method of using is disclosed. The chopper has a number of improved features for reducing the frequency of long fibers or long fiber strands and fuzz from getting into the chopped product. The chopper can have one or any combination of the improvements. The improvements include a strand guide located at least two feet up stream of the chopper, a first starting roll for starting a new strand that runs on a fluid bearing that can be adjusted to control the RPM of the first starting roll, a mount for a roll that runs against the peripheral surface of said back up roll, a strand guide insert for reducing fuzz generation and for preventing fuzz from getting into the product, and a deflector plate for catching and deflecting chopped strands thrown off the back up roll into a chopped strand product chute.

US Classification:
65480
Abstract:
In a method of chopping fiber from a leg containing three or more fiberizers, prior to stopping the chopper for maintenance all of the strands are first removed from the chopper and put into a single set of pull rolls located near the chopper where the strands are pulled while the chopper is down. When the chopper is started back up the strands are more quickly started back into the chopper avoiding the considerable walking and time required in the conventional method of restarting strands from a leg of fiberizers back into a chopper. One of the pull rolls is free to move away from the other roll, but is biased against moving away to provide the grip needed to pull many strands at the same time.

US Classification:
1563082, 4285371, 428337, 428339, 156 60
Abstract:
A method for forming a laminate structure is provided. The method includes selecting a sheet layer that includes a melamine-based resin and selecting a substrate that includes wood, phenolic resin, zinc borate, and a water repellant agent. Heat and pressure are applied to the sheet layer and substrate at a temperature of from about 339 F. to 375 F., at a pressure of from about 23 bar to about 35 bar, and for a predetermined duration of from about 12 seconds to about 22 seconds. The sheet layer is then coupled to the substrate to form the laminate structure.
