Abstract: A refining surface of a refining member, adapted for use with a refiner for defibrating a lignocellulose-containing material, is provided. Such a refining surface comprises a plurality of first grooves, each first groove being defined between two adjacent first bar portions of the refining surface, and extending between opposing first and second radial edges of the refining surface. The refining surface further comprises a plurality of second grooves, each second groove being defined between two adjacent second bar portions of the refining surface forming each first bar portion, and extending between two adjacent second grooves. The first bar portions are wider than the second bar portions, and each second bar portion are between about 1 mm and about 3 mm wide. A blade segment of a refining member is also provided.

Abstract: A pair of co-operating refining elements (10, 11) intended for a disc refiner with two opposed refining discs, one of which is stationary (stator) and the other one is rotary (rotor), for the working of lignocellulosic fiber material in a refining gap (12) between the co-operating refining elements (10, 11). The refining elements are provided with a pattern of bars (13-16) and intermediate grooves. Each bar is formed with a plurality of high bar portions (13, 15) and intermediate low bar portions (14, 16), counted in radial direction. High bar portions (13, 15) are located directly in front of low bar portions (14, 16) on opposed co-operating refining elements (10, 11). The length of the high bar portions (15) on refining elements (11) of the rotor exceeds the length of the high bar portions (13) on refining elements (10) of the stator.
