Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a flow box cleaning technical field, concretely is a flow box on -line cleaning device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The flow box is the key equipment in papermaking process, and the flow box comprises a conical pulp distributor, a guide sleeve and a variable-diameter diffusion pipe.

[0003] In some special paper production in the papermaking industry, the ratio of long fibers is very high, and the long fibers are easy to hang pulp. The design and manufacture of the flow box and the flow feeding system have new requirements. In order to reduce the occurrence of hanging pulp, higher roughness requirements are proposed for each flow surface of the flow feeding system. Even so, it cannot prevent the occurrence of hanging pulp. The pulp mass when the hanging pulp falls off affects the paper quality. At this time, the flow feeding system needs to be cleaned, which causes the paper machine to be unable to produce according to the plan, the disassembly and assembly of the equipment are labor-intensive and time-consuming.

[0004] Through observation of the hanging pulp condition and the cleaning operation process, it is found that the hanging pulp of the flow box all appears on the inner wall of the diffusion pipe.

[0005] Therefore, we propose a flow box on-line cleaning device, which can provide help when cleaning the flow box and reduce the disassembly and cleaning time. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
