  • 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: 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.
