  • Patent number: 8418645
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a doctor device for metering and/or leveling a liquid to pasty medium applied to a moving surface, the surface in the case of direct application being a paper, board or other fibrous web and in the case of indirect application being the surface of a transfer element which transfers the medium to the fibrous web. The doctor device includes a cylindrical metering rod and a pressure tube, with which the metering rod can be pressed against the moving surface for the purpose of metering and/or leveling the medium applied. Additionally, the doctor device is of modular design, having a top part and a bottom part, the top part being provided with a first holder for holding the pressure tube, and the bottom part being provided with a second holder for holding a clamping tube.

  • Patent number: 7669550
    Abstract: A device for applying a medium in the form of a liquid or a paste to a moving substrate, the substrate being a surface of a web of paper, a paper board, fibrous material and/or a transfer element including an application chamber, a first element, a second element and at least one limiting element. The first element is associated with the application chamber on an output side of the application chamber in a direction of movement of the moving substrate. The second element is associated with an input side of the application chamber. The at least one limiting element is associated with a lateral end of the application chamber. The at least one limiting element adjusting a width of application of the medium on the moving substrate. The at least one limiting element having a flexible sealing plate that substantially seals a space between the moving substrate, the first element and the second element.

  • Patent number: 7332033
    Abstract: A doctor bed is provided for holding a circularly cylindrical metering rod, including a housing of a homogenous material, which is designed with a cross section at right angles to the cylinder longitudinal axis of the metering rod and has a circularly cylindrical recess which surrounds the metering rod with a form fit over at least 180°. The doctor bed is arranged on a machine processing a moving material web, there being arranged on the housing, in the region of the recess, at least one groove running parallel to the cylinder longitudinal axis of the metering rod. A wiping strip is arranged detachably between the metering rod and the doctor bed.

  • Patent number: 7090219
    Abstract: Sealing device for sealing at least one zone of underpressure or overpressure adjoining a moving surface that includes at least one sealing element, positionable opposite the moving surface to form a front and a rear, with respect to a surface running direction. The sealing device includes a sealing section located at the front and a ventilation section located at the rear. The sealing section is structured to sealingly interact with the moving surface; and the ventilation section is structured and arranged to form a gap with the moving surface that widens in the surface running direction.

  • Patent number: 6821389
    Abstract: The present invention is a machine for manufacturing a fibrous web from a fibrous suspension, with a sheet forming area that exhibits at least one suction box, which includes a main box with at least one suction box cover that is formed from at least two drainage elements that run laterally to the machine's running direction, border a suction slit, and each has one main body and at least one ceramic. The present invention is identified by the fact that at least; one drainage element and/or one format slide exhibit at least one removable edge piece in which is integrated at least one temperature sensor in order to measure the temperature in the ceramic and/or the temperature at an adhesive point between the ceramic and the associated main body and/or the temperature in the main body. The present invention is furthermore a process and a system for monitoring a drainage element.
