Abstract

A fiber separation processing apparatus includes: a second web formation unit that has a mesh belt on which a material containing fiber is piled and that forms a web on the mesh belt; a peeling and collecting unit that peels and collects the material adhering to the mesh belt; and a collection pipe that transports the material that is collected by the peeling and collecting unit to a later stage of the fiber separation unit.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A fiber ingredient reproduction apparatus comprising:
 a web formation unit that has a belt portion on which a material containing fiber is piled and that forms a web on the belt portion;   a peeling and collecting unit that peels and collects the material that adheres to the belt portion; and   a transport unit that transports the material collected by the peeling and collecting unit to a former stage before the web formation unit.   
     
     
         2 . The fiber ingredient reproduction apparatus according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the peeling and collecting unit blows air from a rear side of the belt portion to collect the material from a front side of the belt portion.   
     
     
         3 . The fiber ingredient reproduction apparatus according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the transport unit transports the material to a later stage of a fiber separation unit.   
     
     
         4 . The fiber ingredient reproduction apparatus according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the transport unit transports the material to the former stage of the web formation unit.   
     
     
         5 . The fiber ingredient reproduction apparatus according to  claim 2 ,
 wherein the transport unit transports the material to a former stage of the web formation unit.   
     
     
         6 . A fiber ingredient reproduction method comprising:
 piling a material containing fiber on a belt portion to form a web with the web formation unit;   peeling and collecting the material that adheres to the belt portion with a peeling and collecting unit; and   transporting the material that is collected by the peeling and collecting unit to a former stage before the web formation unit.
