Abstract

A defibration processing device is capable of efficient defibration in a multiple stage rotating part, and a fibrous feedstock recycling device. The defibration processing device has a first rotating part disposed on a side into which defibration feedstock flows, and a second rotating part disposed on a side to which defibrated material defibrated in the first rotating part is discharged. The first rotating part and second rotating part each have on the axis of rotation side thereof a base, and a protruding part protruding from the base in a direction away from the axis of rotation. A spacer is between the first rotating part and second rotating part. An external restriction plate protrudes from the stationary part side toward the spacer, and an internal restriction plate protrudes from the axis of rotation side of the first rotating part and second rotating part toward the stationary part.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A defibration processing device comprising:
a rotating part configured to rotate around an axis of rotation;
a stationary part disposed separated from the rotating part in a direction away from the axis of rotation,
the rotating part having, in a direction along the axis of rotation, a first rotating part disposed on a side into which defibration feedstock flows, and a second rotating part disposed on a side to which defibrated material defibrated in the first rotating part is discharged, the first rotating part and second rotating part each having on an axis of rotation side thereof a base, and a protruding part protruding from the base in the direction away from the axis of rotation;
a spacer disposed, in the direction along the axis of rotation, between the base of the first rotating part and the base of the second rotating part;
an external restriction plate protruding from the stationary part toward the spacer; and
an internal restriction plate protruding from between the first rotating part and the second rotating part toward the stationary part, wherein:
a gap between an outside edge of the internal restriction plate and the stationary part is smaller than a gap between an inside edge of the external restriction plate and the spacer.

2. The defibration processing device described in claim 1 , wherein:
the internal restriction plate is disposed between the first rotating part and the spacer, and an inside edge of the external restriction plate is disposed between the second rotating part and the internal restriction plate.

3. The defibration processing device described in claim 1 , wherein:
the internal restriction plate is disposed between the second rotating part and the spacer, and an inside edge of the external restriction plate is disposed between the first rotating part and the internal restriction plate.

4. The defibration processing device described in claim 1 , wherein:
the external restriction plate is disposed on a side of the first rotating part into which the defibration feedstock flows.

5. The defibration processing device described in claim 1 , wherein:
the internal restriction plate is disposed on a side of the first rotating part into which the defibration feedstock flows.

6. The defibration processing device described in claim 1 , wherein:
the first rotating part and the second rotating part are each configured by stacking multiple rotating plates.

7. The defibration processing device described in claim 6 , wherein:
the rotating plates each have the base disposed on the axis of rotation side, and the protruding part protruding from the base in a direction away from the axis of rotation.

8. A fibrous feedstock recycling device comprising the defibration processing device described in claim 1 .
