ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a pulp heating apparatus and particularly relates to a pulp heating apparatus in which an arrangement of components is improved.
2. Description of the Related Art
For example, Japanese Patent No. 2811489 (U.S. Pat. No.5,176,793) discloses a processing apparatus for heating pulp.
In this processing apparatus, as shown in
FIG. 1
of Japanese Patent No. 2811489 (U.S. Pat. No. 5,176,793), a vertical conveyor screw (
6
) is provided between a plug screw (
5
) and a pulp shredder (
7
), and pulp carried by the plug screw (
5
) is led to the pulp shredder (
7
) positioned in a heating section by the vertical conveyor screw (
6
).
In this processing apparatus, in the case where the pulp is led to the pulp shredder (
7
), if the vertical conveyor screw (
6
) does not exist, a block of the pulp exhausted by the plug screw (
5
) drops towards the pulp shredder (
7
) due to gravity because the pulp shredder (
7
) is positioned below the plug screw (
5
). Thereafter, the block is supplied to the pulp shredder (
7
) and the shredding of the pulp is occasionally interfered, namely, the pulp is not shredded sufficiently.
In order to prevent the above case, there arises a problem that the vertical conveyor screw (
6
) is required as a pulp breaking machine between the plug screw (
5
) and the
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is an object of the present invention to provide a pulp heating apparatus which removes the above problem.
In order to achieve the above object, a pulp heating apparatus of a first aspect is constituted so as to include a heater main body having a pulp introduction port for introducing pulp, a vapor introduction port for introducing vapor, a disperser for dispersing the pulp introduced via the pulp introduction port under a high temperature and a pulp exhaust port for exhausting the pulp dispersed by the disperser, and the heater main body being arranged in horizontal is direction, and so that the disperser has a spiral vane section which continues spirally around a rotational shaft and discontinuous vane sections around the rotational shaft, the pulp introduction port is provided at a bottom section of said heater main body and is connected with an introduction passage and a screw conveyor is provided on the introduction passage and a forward end of the introduction passage faces towards the spiral vane section.
In addition, a pulp heating apparatus of a second aspect is constituted so as to include: a heater main body having a pulp introduction port for introducing pulp, a vapor introduction port for introducing vapor, a disperser for dispersing the pulp introduced via the pulp introduction port under a high temperature and a pulp exhaust port for exhausting the pulp dispersed by the disperser, and the heater main body being arranged in horizontal direction, and so that the disperser has a spiral vane section which continues spirally around a rotational shaft and discontinuous vane sections around the rotational shaft, the pulp introduction port is provided at a bottom section of said heater main body and is connected with an introduction passage and a screw conveyor is provided on the introduction passage, a forward end of the introduction passage faces towards the spiral vane section and convex sections are provided on an outer periphery of the spiral vane section facing towards the forward end of the introduction passage.
