ABSTRACT:
A cleaning apparatus is disclosed for cleaning a forming wire extending around a wire turning roll of a paper machine. The apparatus includes a shower which is disposed upstream relative to the turning roll for spraying a cleaning liquid onto the forming wire. A housing is disposed between the shower and the turning roll, the housing being connected to a source of pressurized air. The housing defines an opening which has a first and a second end. The housing also defines an orifice which has an upstream and a downstream end for permitting a flow therethrough of the pressurized air such that the flow of air is directed against the wire for at least partially removing the cleaning liquid therefrom. The opening cooperates with the turning roll such that the opening conforms with the turning roll for substantially sealing the opening against loss of the pressurized air so that the flow of pressurized air is directed through the orifice.
