<p>A papermaking deaeration apparatus including a receiving chamber (14), and a plurality of cleaning and deaeration wings (16) extending therefrom. A baffle (40) is provided in the chamber of the receiver proximate the opening of each wing which communicates deaerated paper stock into the receiver chamber. The baffles redirect downrushing deaerated paper stock such that it is dispensed in a 'knifing' shape into the pool (36) of paper stock contained in the chamber of the receiver. Hence, standing waves and splashing in the pool of paper stock in the receiver is reduced.</p> |
