PCT No. PCT/GB92/01615 Sec. 371 Date May 4, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date May 4, 1994 PCT Filed Sep. 4, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO93/05211 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 18, 1993.An apparatus for separating fiber and shiv includes a pinned metering rotor and a pinned separation rotor adapted to rotate with surfaces moving in opposite directions and having fixed bearing locations, the final separation rotor being adjacent a shroud in which are a plurality of slots, and a pinned doffer rotor rotatable in either direction and having a bearing location which is adjustable relative to the separation rotor. A shell feed structure at the intersection of the metering rotor and the separation rotor has a surface adjacent the separation rotor substantially parallel to the surface of that rotor, and a surface adjacent the metering rotor having a curvature greater than that of the metering motor. |
