Definitions
- the present invention relates to a strand orienter, more particularly, the present invention relates to a multi-deck strand orienter for orienting strands without significant segregation of the strands by length.
- Both of these devices use their rotating disks to carry the longer length strands that did not pass directly between the axially spaced disks along the top of the disks toward one end where the axial spacing between the disks is wider so that the long strands are preferentially positioned towards one end of the orienter and the short strands at the other.
- the orienting system of US patent 5,325,954 generally employs a relatively long bottom deck with wider axial disk spacing toward one end of the orienter, but does not segregate the strands by length to the extent that occurs with the Burkner and Stokes arrangements. It is known that the height of the lower edge of the bottom orienting deck above the mat or lay-up formed on the collecting belt has a significant influence on the retained orientation of the wafers or strands on the belt. The larger this space the greater the loss of orientation of the strands as attained in the orienter, thus it is preferred to keep this distance relatively small in the order of between 1 and 3 inches, preferably smaller to minimize this loss of orientation.
- Each deck has a number of fins that is a multiple of the number of fins in the 5 deck immediately above it so that the fins on the upper deck directly overlie corresponding fins on the lower deck and the flow of strands is divided by the upper deck and the divisions so formed further subdivide by the next lower deck.
- the spacing between the fins on the top deck is about half the average length the strands that are to be oriented and the spacing between the upper and lower deck is defined as the distance greater than the
- the present invention relates to an orienting system for orienting wood strands comprising a top deck, a bottom deck and at least one intermediate deck between said upper and bottom decks to form a series of said decks stacked substantially vertically one above the other, substantially vertically extending passages through each of said decks, each of said passages being defined by a pair of spaced walls, said walls in at least said top 5 deck being defined by axially spaced disks radially extending from a plurality of parallel shafts, said passages through said bottom deck having a preselected width y measured in a first direction between said walls of said bottom deck sufficiently small to ensure orientation of said strands passing therethrough to the desired mean angular deviation relative to a second direction substantially perpendicular to said
- the axial spacing of disks on the same shaft in said top deck will be at least equal to the maximum cut length of strand to be oriented.
- said walls of said passages in an upper deck are substantially vertically and axially aligned with walls of passages in a deck immediately therebelow,
- said vertical passages in each of said intermediate and said top decks positioned above said bottom deck have a width substantially equivalent to (2) n y for a Stokes disk arrangement where n is the number of decks above said bottom deck.
- At least the upper edges of all of said passages are formed by edges of disks mounted in axially spaced relationship on shafts
- said walls of said passages in all of said decks will be formed by axially spaced disks mounted on said shafts.
- all of said shafts in any one of said decks will be arranged in a plane.
- said disks on one shaft will be mounted midway between said disks on an adjacent shaft in each of said decks.
- said shaft in adjacent decks will be arranged in substantially the same vertical plane.
- Figure 1 shows a schematic arrangement of a plurality of orienting systems constructed in accordance with the present invention and arranged in side by side relationship.
- Figure 2 is a section parallel to the direction of belt movement through a typical orienting system constructed in accordance with the present invention.
- Figure 3 is a schematic section along the lines 3-3 of Figure 2 illustrating the preferred arrangement of the disks forming the side walls of the passage. Description of the Preferred Embodiments
- Figure 1 shows an orienter incorporating three orienting systems constructed in accordance with the present invention as indicated at 1, 2 and 3 arranged in side by side relationship for laying a mat or lay-up indicated at 12 on a conveyor or the like 14.
- the mat 12 forms a lay up for manufacture of consolidated composite wood products from the material (wood strands) orienters 1, 2 and 3.
- 3 orienting system constructed according to the present invention have been shown in figure 1 show how the systems may be -placed to take full advantage of a specific type of distribution system feeding an orienting system constructed in accordance with the present invention i.e. any one or more of the systems 1, 2 or 3 may be used independently or in combination with other orienting systems of the present invention.
- the wood strands normally used with the orienter system of the present invention may have any reasonable length - generally, less than about 12 inches, a thickness less than about .25 inches, normally less than about 0.05 inches, a width generally about 1/2 inch and up to about 3 inches with a length to width aspect ratio of at least 2.
- strands 16 are fed from a conveyor or the like 18 using a spiked picker roll or the like 20 to disperse the strands and feed them onto a pair of spaced apart distributing rolls 22 and 24 which are also in the form of spiked rollers mounted in parallel spaced part relationship so that in the illustrated arrangement, about one third of the strands pass between distributor rolls 20 and 24 and form an in-feed for the orienting system 2, i.e.
- the middle orienting system whereas the distributing roll 22 distributes another third of the flow onto the orienting system 3 and the roll 24 distributes the final third onto the orienting system 1.
- the flow to each of the orienting systems 1, 2 and 3 will be essentially the same.
- the incoming flows for the orienting systems 1, 2 and 3 as indicated at 26, 28 and 30 fall between partitions or directing walls 32, 34, 35, 36, 37, and 38 which delineate at least the incoming width of the strands 26, 28 and 30 and may, as will be described below, carry on to form boundary walls between the orienting systems 1, 2 and 3.
- These directing walls 32, 34, 35, 36, 37 and 38 direct the strands onto the upper or top deck of these respective orienting systems 1, 2 or 3 toward the periphery of the outside disks at a length preferably just inside of a vertical plane passing through the axis of those outside disks (see the partitions 32 and 34 in Figure 2).
- the length x will be in the range of about 1 to 3 feet.
- the spacing z between the bottom of the orienting system and the top 40 of the mat being formed may be maintained relatively constant as indicated by the dimension z in Figures 1 and 2.
- the side by side orienting systems 1, 2 and 3 have been aligned horizontally.
- the orienting system 1 is the datum
- the orienting system 2 may be moved vertically as indicated by the arrow 42 relative to the system 1 and similarly the orienting system 3 may be displaced vertically as indicated by the arrow 44 relative to the orienting system 2 to position the bottom of each of the orienting systems relative to the top 40 of the mat being formed as required, i.e. if the spacing between the disk decks is significant, it may be more desirable to arrange the decks in a stepped relationship with the deck 3, i.e. upstream in the direction of movement in the belt being positioned closer to the belt than the other two.
- present invention may be employed with a single orienting system or with two or more orienting systems.
- the use of three orienting systems is relatively convenient when a pair of distributing rolls, 22 and 24, are used as the main flow may be relatively easily be divided into three separate flows from a single source.
- each of the orienting systems (only one will be described) is formed by at least three decks, a bottom deck B, at least one intermediate deck I(i) and a top deck T (see also Figure 1).
- a number of intermediate decks may be provided as required to satisfy the requirements for the number of passage bisections based on the width y required in the bottom deck to obtain the required orientation and the length L of the strands being oriented as will be described below.
- disks 44 be driven and suitable means schematically represented by the arrows 52 will be provided to drive the disks 44 - normally by driving the shafts 46.
- suitable means schematically represented by the arrows 52 will be provided to drive the disks 44 - normally by driving the shafts 46.
- the disks at one end (off-going end) of the orienting system in each deck have been shown driven in the opposite direction to the other disks, however, this is not essential or even preferred.
- the axes of the shafts 46 in the different decks are preferably arranged in a grid pattern.
- the axes of the shafts in a given deck are preferably all positioned in a plane (see planes 54, 56 and 58 designated by dot dash lines in Figure 2) and the axes of the shafts in the series of stacked decks being positioned in stacked relationship in planes 60, 62, 64, 66 and 68 which are preferably substantially parallel.
- the planes 54, 56 and 58 are preferably parallel and extend in a direction preferably substantially perpendicular to the direction in which planes 60, 62, 64, 66 and 68 extend. Though the planes 54, 56 and 58 have been shown to extend substantially horizontally they may if desired be set to be substantially parallel to the top 40 of the mat being formed.
- each of the decks B, I(i) and T are formed by a plurality of disks 44 mounted in axially spaced relationship on shafts 46.
- the shafts with the top deck T have been indicated by a t .
- the position of shaft relative to one end (front) has been indicated numerically, i.e. in the 5 shaft system illustrated, as i for the shaft closest to the front 48 and 5 to the shaft farther from the front 48. Similar numbering has been used in each of the decks.
- Each of the intermediate deck being designated as I ⁇ the ( • , indicating the position or number of decks that intermediate deck is above the bottom deck B and the shafts are indicated in a similar manner, i.e.
- 46 ( m) is the front (first) shaft on the intermediate deck immediately above the bottom deck B.
- the disks and shafts on the bottom deck B being indicated by the similar reference numerals but with the subscript B indicating the bottom deck, e.g. 46 ⁇ B .
- the spacing between the adjacent disks mounted on substantially vertically aligned shafts, i.e. shafts 46 i ⁇ >, 46 ( ni), 46(- B >, etc. is indicated by the dimension t.
- This dimension t will normally be less than 2 inches and is likely to be closer to 1 inch and may be a negative number where the disks overlap.
- Overlapping of the disks in one deck with disks in the adjacent higher or lower deck may be important where the overall height or the orienting system is important as overlapping significantly reduces the height of the system.
- the degree of overlap obviously must not be sufficient and the disks must be positioned on adjacent decks to ensure there is no interference between for the disks ion adjacent decks and one deck does not interfere with the operation of its adjacent decks.
- Applicant has found that the dimension D of 16 inches using shafts of diameter equal to about 2 inches and spaced 9 inches to operate very satisfactory with wafers or strands having a maximum length of less than about 6 2 inches and an average of about 5 i inches.
- the disk have been shown arranged as described as above as a Stokes arrangement. However, they can equally well be arranged as a Burkner arrangement.
- the Stokes arrangement is however, preferred since the number of decks required may be reduced relative to a Burkner arrangement. It is important that in any pair of adjacent decks in the sequence e.g. decks I ⁇ *) and B that the strands falling through the passages PAD in deck I**, to the passages P- B , can contact only one edge i.e. only the top of one of the walls of the passages P ⁇ ) in the deck B so that each passages P( I D in an upper deck of the pair of adjacent decks is bisected into two passages P( B > through the lower deck of the pair.
- the passages in the upper deck will be bisected into two equal width passages in the lower deck and the total width of the two passages in the lower deck will be equal to the width of the passage in the upper deck of the pair (ignoring the disk or wall thickness measures axially of the shafts.
- the axial spacing between the adjacent disk 44 measured between the center of the disks (axial of the shafts - ignoring the disk or partition wall thickness measured axially of the shafts) in each of the deck is set up as follows:
- the axial spacing of the disk 44 on the deck B is set at the dimension Yb which is the required dimension to obtain the desired degree of orientation (mean angular deviation) of the strands forming the mat 12, then each of the decks positioned thereabove will preferably be sized in relation thereto to ensure that the vertical passages defined between the disks in each deck, i.e. the passages P ⁇ , P ⁇ i) and P B will increase in width according to the following formula:
- the deck I-o will be first deck up and the dimension Y- ⁇ ) will be twice the dimension Y B and the dimension Y T of the upper deck, since there are only three decks, will be equal to 2 (2) Y B or 4 times Y B .
- the number of decks required is reduced relative to a Burkner arrangement since the width YT is defined by disks on adjacent shafts bisecting the space between decks on the same shaft, i.e. in the Stokes arrangements the passage width is defined by the spacing between disks on adjacent shafts.
- the passage width is defined by the spacing between disks on the same shaft since the spacing between disks on the same shaft in the top deck is also dependent on the strand length L, i.e. at least as widely spaced as the length of the wafer, the number of decks required is less with Stokes then with Burkner.
- the Burkner arrangement the number of decks required is higher as the effective of the offset of disks on adjacent shafts cannot be obtained yet the size of the passage is in each deck must be half the width of the passage through the deck immediately thereabove and the maximum width i.e. the width Y must accommodate the strand length L requiring that the actual passage width between adjacent disks on the same shaft be equal to dimension A as opposed to the 1/2 A when Stokes arrangement is used.
- the Stokes arrangement permits less decks because the strands see in any one position only that portion of the disk projecting above the disks on the adjacent shafts and thus the disk spacing on one shaft may be twice the required passage width.
- both the maximum wafer length and the degree of orientation will determine the number of intermediate decks that are required, it being important that the axial spacing in the bottom deck be narrow enough to obtain the required orientation and in the top deck be wider than the maximum cut length of the wafers being processed. For example, if a spacing of 1 inches between the disk 44 B , i.e.
- each of the passages P T , Pn and P B in the illustrated arrangement are directly vertically in line with the passages immediately thereabove and in effect, bisect the passage immediately thereabove, i.e. when the position of the walls of a passage are defined in an upper deck, the decks therebelow will have passage walls (disks) in the same vertical plane.
- vanes may be used to replace the disk or in combination with disks to further improved orientation particularly to eliminate the gap g (shown in Figure 2) and maintain a more accurate spacing between the bottom of the vanes indicated by dotted lines at 60 in Figure 2.
