摘要

The present invention relates to a machine for storing fibers, in particular mineral wool fibers. This machine comprises a fiber-optic hopper 2 provided with a rotary feeding system 4, as shown in FIG. A SCREW, MU IN A FIRST DIRECTION ROTATION, CHARACTERIZED IN THAT INCLUDES A CARDING APPARATUS 10 ARRANGED IN THE HOPPER 2, IN THE VICINITY OF ITS OPENING 6, COAXALLY PROVIDES TO THE POWER SYSTEM 4 AND ROTATING IN REVERSE DIRECTION OF THIS ONE. THE FIBERS THUS CARDED MAY THEN BE TAKEN BY AN AUXILIARY CARDING APPARATUS 42 THEN A ROTOR 54 A BLADES 56 BEFORE BEING EXCHANGED BY AN OPENING 58 THROUGH A PNEUMATIC FIBER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM. / P P The invention makes it possible to regulate the flow rate of the CARDED FIBERS with great precision and also to regulate their length with even greater accuracy. / P
