Feeding element for fibrous material
First Claim
1. A feeding element for use in connection with a refiner for lignocellulosic fibrous material including a stationary refining member, a rotary refining member mounted for rotation in juxtaposition with said stationary refining member thereby forming a refining gap therebetween, a feeder for feeding said lignocellulosic fibrous material centrally to a feed zone within said refining gap and a refining zone extending radially outward from said feed zone, said feeding element comprising a feeding member having an upper surface for mounting on said rotary refining member at a location outwardly displaced from and directly adjacent to said central location of said feed zone, said feeding member including at least one radial feed bar projecting from said upper surface of said feeding member, said at least one radial feed bar including a body portion and a projecting portion extending laterally from said body portion at a location displaced from said upper surface of said feeding member.
