Patent number: 9394091Abstract: A method for fastening wrapping sheets made of paper or cellulose in pulp-bale packaging, wherein a pulp bale is wrapped using a single-piece or two-part wrapping sheet made of paper or using a lower sheet and upper sheet made of cellulose. The method is characterized in that, at the location of overlap of the two paper or cellulose sheets, or at the end fold of the wrapping sheets made of cellulose or paper, one or more clip(s), including a decomposable material, not leaving behind any harmful components, as bale processing continues, is introduced into the bale. This makes it possible to avoid a costly binding machine or paper-strapping machine, and does away with the outlay required for disposing of the wire by the end user. A fastening device which includes a decomposable material which does not leave behind any harmful components, as bale processing continues is also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2011Date of Patent: July 19, 2016Assignee: ANDRITZ AGInventor: Walter Writzl

Patent number: 9199754Abstract: An accumulator device (1) for the tying wire of a tying machine used in pulp production has a drive (3) at the inlet to the accumulator device and another drive (7) at the outlet from the accumulator device. By means of the accumulator device (1) according to the invention and the two drives (3, 7), it is possible to store the entire length of wire required for one tying cycle temporarily and then to remove the wire from the accumulator for the tying cycle. In this way, a dynamic accumulator volume is created for the tying wire in the accumulator device (1).Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2009Date of Patent: December 1, 2015Assignee: Andritz AGInventors: Ute Figer, Walter Writzl, Manfred Wöls, Josef Kammerhofer

Patent number: 6475345Abstract: A device for feeding a pulp suspension to a tissue machine includes a headbox having top and bottom lips defining a slice gap forming a free flow jet of the pulp suspension. The device also includes at least one eccentric shaft for setting the slice gap between a minimum and a maximum height. Each eccentric shaft is supported at several points over the machine width and is driven directly by a gear motor.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2001Date of Patent: November 5, 2002Assignee: Andritz-Patentverwaltungs-Gesellschaft m.b.H.Inventors: Wilhelm Mausser, Manfred Schmid, Walter Writzl, Rudolf Greimel, Harald Weigant

Patent number: 5383608Abstract: Apparatus and method for the mechanical refining of high consistency lignocellulosic feed material in a frustroconical refining zone, by facilitating the backflow of steam generated in the refining zone through the upstream feed zone which, despite the backflow of steam, imparts outward force on the feed material sufficient for the material to enter the refining zone and pass therethrough, without blockage or flow interruption. This is accomplished by providing, immediately upstream of the frustroconical refining zone (46), a hybrid feed/grinding zone (104), which acts on the wood chips with relatively high refining intensity at low refining power, so as to reduce the size of the material and outwardly convey the material by centrifugal force into the frustroconical refining zone against the backflowing steam, but without generating steam in the hybrid zone.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 1993Date of Patent: January 24, 1995Assignee: Andritz Sprout-Bauer, Inc.Inventors: Karl T. G. Dahiqvist, Franz Haider, Gregory R. Kohler, Josef Krasser, William F. Lahner, III, Alfred Lang, Wilhelm Mausser, Heinrich F. Munster, Josef Muser, Ronald L. Musselman, Walter Writzl
