A flow chamber located at the head end of a fourdrinier or cylinder paper machine. It receives the diluted pulp stock slurry and regulates the head or level to provide uniform and even flow across the width of the wire and the correct volume of stock to the screens and mixing boxes before the cylinder machine vats. It is also known as a mixbox on cylinder machines. 4, record 1, English, - headbox

Two current designs of air-cushioned headbox are illustrated in Figures 16-8 and 16-9. These boxes depend on the action of the rotating, perforated rolls to provide turbulence and level out velocity gradients. Shower sprays are arranged to cover the pond and sides of the box. Some older designs... incorporate a reception chamber(also called "swirl chamber" or "explosion chamber") into which the distribution system feeds, followed by an adjustable gap or throat. The gap is important; if too large, the high velocity streams from the inlet pipes will persist; if too small, troublesome vortices(eddy currents) can be created. 1, record 7, English, - swirl%20chamber

Les dessins de deux modèles de caisses d'arrivée modernes à coussin d'air sont représentés aux figures 16-8 et 16-9. Ces caisses d'arrivée contiennent des rouleaux perforés rotatifs pour créer une turbulence et niveler les gradients de vitesse. Des rinceurs sont installés pour couvrir les côtés et le fond de la caisse d'arrivée. Des modèles plus anciens contiennent une chambre réceptrice (appelée aussi «chambre de tourbillonnement» ou «chambre d'explosion») dans laquelle aboutit le circuit de tête, suivie par une fente ou un étranglement réglable, comme celui de la figure 16-10. Le réglage de la fente est important : si elle est trop large, les courants à grande vitesse de tuyaux de distribution persisteront; si elle est trop étroite, des vortex (courants tourbillonnaires) qui ont un effet perturbateur peuvent apparaître. 1, record 7, French, - chambre%20de%20tourbillonnement

La règle (slice) joue un rôle essentiel dans la formation de la feuille. Elle débite la pâte à une vitesse voisine de celle de la toile sans créer de turbulences excessives; son débit doit être uniforme sur toute la largeur de la table de fabrication. La règle se compose d'une lèvre supérieure (upper lip), d'une lèvre inférieure ou tablier (bottom lip, apron board) et de leurs dispositifs de réglage. L'angle que forme le jet de pâte avec la toile détermine le point d'impact du jet sur le rouleau de tête (breast roll). Cet angle dépend de la position angulaire de la lèvre inférieure ainsi que de la position relative des lèvres inférieure et supérieure. Le jet sera d'autant plus horizontal que la lèvre inférieure sera avancée.

((Metering and blending of furnishes)) The machine chest typically contains the final furnish mixture, although in some instances, small concentrations of additives may be added just prior to the headbox. The machine chest stock(at 2. 6-2. 8 % consistency) is continuously circulated to a constant head tank(stuff box) which feeds the stock through a control valve(called the "basis weight valve") into the paper machine approach system. Here, the stock is combined with circulating white water from the wire pit, and the consistency is dramatically reduced to the level(typically 1 % or less) required at the headbox. 1, record 16, English, - basis%20weight%20valve

The horizontal belt washer... resembles the fourdrinier section of a paper machine. The pulp suspension is distributed from a headbox onto a traveling filter belt(e. g., plastic screen or steel band), and formed into a mat. Wash liquor is applied to the top side of the mat while displaced filtrate is removed from the underside of the belt by suction boxes. The washer is operated in a countercurrent mode, with the filtrate from one section being returned as wash liquor to the previous section, and ultimately as dilution for the headbox furnish. In common with the vacuum washer, displacement is the principal washing mechanism, but no mixing and reforming of the pulp mat is required between stages. A total of five displacement stages are easily accommodated along the belt. 1, record 17, English, - horizontal%20belt%20washer

Le principe d'un filtre à bande horizontale transportant un matelas fibreux soumis à plusieurs stades de lavage sur sa longueur n'est pas nouveau. Toutefois, son application pratique n'est devenue réalisable que tout récemment, par suite de la mise au point de matières de type plastique (élastomères) qui conviennent à la fabrication de toiles filtrantes souples, capables de résister à l'usure par frottement constant et aux produits chimiques chauds (...) On prétend qu'une installation d'encombrement relativement faible peut fournir un rendement supérieur, tout en assurant une exploitation simple; la clé de cette réussite réside dans un lavage entièrement réalisé par chasse d'eau, sans mélange entre les phases de lavage. 1, record 17, French, - filtre%20%C3%A0%20bande%20horizontale
