Refiner having center ring with replaceable vanes

摘要

An improved high-consistency disc refiner employs a central ring or flinger nut. The radial vanes mounted on the flinger nut are releasably mounted to the flinger nut base in which keyways are milled. Matching keys on the bottom of the flinger nut vanes position the vanes in the keyways. The flinger nut vanes are held in position by bolts which extend through bolt holes which are parallel to the axis of rotation of the rotor and which are threadedly engaged with the flinger nut base.
