APPARATUS FOR COMPACTING FIBROUS PLANT MATERIAL, ESPECIALLY FOR COMPACTING STALK MATERIAL

摘要

An apparatus for pelletizing renewable raw materials, such as stalk material, having a feeding device for feeding the materials to be pelletized and having at least one press drum pair that is settable into opposite rotational movements, wherein the feeding device has a drivable conveyor belt which conveys the material to be compressed into the region of a feed hopper between the press drum pair, and which wraps around one of the two press drums regionally over an angle of at least 20° in order to form a precompaction region, and wherein the precompaction region has a constant width with respect to its length, said width corresponding more or less to the width of the press drums.

主权项

1. An apparatus for compacting fibrous plant material, in particular for compacting stalk material, having a feeding device (15) for feeding the plant material or stalk material to be compacted and having at least one pair of press drums (10.1, 10.2) that are settable into opposite rotational movements, wherein the feeding device (15) comprises a drivable conveyor belt (16) which conveys the material to be pressed, in particular plant material or stalk material to be compacted, into the region of a feed hopper (17) between the press drums (10.1, 10.2), and which wraps around one of the two press drums (10.1, 10.2) regionally over an angle of at least 20° in order to form a precompaction region (19), wherein the precompaction region (19) has a constant width along its length.
