Electronic spinning apparatus
First Claim
1. An electrospinning apparatus comprising a spinning dope main tank, a metering pump, a nozzle block, a collector, positioned at the lower end of the nozzle block for collecting spun fibers, a voltage generator, a plurality of units for transmitting a voltage generated by the voltage generator to the nozzle block and the collector, said electrospinning apparatus containinga spinning dope drop device positioned between the metering pump and the nozzle block, the spinning dope drove device having(i) a sealed cylindrical shape,(ii) a spinning dope inducing tube and a gas inletting tube for receiving gas through its lower end and having its gas inletting part connected to a filter aligned side-by-side at the upper portion of the spinning dope drop device,(iii) a spinning dope discharge tube extending from the lower portion of the spinning dope drop device and(iv) a hollow unit for dropping the spinning dope from the spinning dope inducing tube formed at the middle portion of the spinning dope drop device.

Abstract
An electrospinning apparatus including a spinning dope main tank, a metering pump, a nozzle block, a collector positioned at the lower end of the nozzle block for collecting spun fibers, a voltage generator, a plurality of units for transmitting a voltage generated by the voltage generator to the nozzle block and the collector, said electrospinning apparatus containing
- a spinning dope drop device positioned between the metering pump and the nozzle block, the spinning dope drove device having
- (i) a sealed cylindrical shape,
- (ii) a spinning dope inducing tube and a gas inletting tube for receiving gas through its lower end and having its gas inletting part connected to a filter aligned side-by-side at the upper portion of the spinning dope drop device,
- (iii) a spinning dope discharge tube extending from the lower portion of the spinning dope drop device and
- (iv) a hollow unit for dropping the spinning dope from the spinning dope inducing tube formed at the middle portion of the spinning dope drop device.

6. A method for the preparation of a non-woven fabric by electrospinning a thermoplastic or thermosetting resin spinning dope on a collector from a nozzle block and consecutively embossing a spun web, which comprises
passing a spinning dope from a spinning dope main tank through a metering pump and quantitatively supplied to a spinning dope drop device where the spinning dope is dropped; - the spinning dope is then provided supplied to the nozzle block provided with a voltage, whereby the nozzle block discharges the spinning dope onto the collector, said spinning dope drop device having
(i) a sealed cylindrical shape, (ii) a spinning dope inducing tube and a gas inletting tube for receiving gas through its lower end and having its gas inletting part connected to a filter aligned side by side at the upper portion of the spinning dope drop device, (iii) a spinning dope discharge tube extending from the lower portion of the spinning dope drop device, and (iv) a hollow unit for dropping the spinning dope from the spinning dope inducing tube formed at the middle portion of the spinning dope drop device. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)
