    INSTALLATION FOR MANUFACTURING MINERAL WOOL AND DEVICE FOR PROTECTING A SIZING COMPOSITION EQUIPPED WITH SUCH AN INSTALLATION
    The invention relates to the field of the manufacture of mineral wool, of the type for example glass wool, and it relates more particularly to the operations and the corresponding systems for spraying binder between and or on the fibers.
    Installations for manufacturing mineral wool conventionally comprise several successive stations among which a fiberizing station, in which the glass fiber is created, a sizing station, in which the fibers are bonded together by adding a composition of sizing, and a crosslinking station in which the mattress of fibers bonded together obtained previously to transform the mineral wool is transformed by heating.
    In more detail, molten glass is placed in a rotating plate which forms in the fiberizing station a centrifuge device, outside of which escape glass fibers which fall towards a conveyor, under the effect of a descending air flow. On the passage of the fibers falling towards this conveyor, the sizing composition is sprayed participating in forming the binder on the passage of the fibers. In order to avoid evaporation of the sizing composition, it is possible to carry out an operation of cooling the fibers to be sized, by spraying a cooling liquid and in particular water downstream of the sizing operation . The glued fibers once cooled fall on the conveyor and the mattress thus formed is then directed towards an oven forming the crosslinking station, in which the mattress is simultaneously dried and subjected to a specific heat treatment which causes polymerization (or "Hardening") of the binder resin present on the surface of the fibers.
    The continuous mattress of mineral wool is then intended to be cut to form, for example, panels or rolls of thermal and / or acoustic insulation.
    The projection of binder is controlled at the time of the passage of the fibers to be bonded. Are known from the prior art, and in particular from document EPI807259, a binder projection device comprising two annular rings carrying spray nozzles and inside which pass the glass fibers successively. A ring is connected to a binder tank and each spray nozzle associated with this first ring is configured to receive on the one hand a quantity of this binder and on the other hand a quantity of compressed air via an independent supply for projecting binder to the passage of the glass fibers, and the other ring is connected to a cooling fluid reservoir and each spray nozzle associated with this second ring is configured to project this cooling fluid to the passage of the glass fibers.
    It is known to use binders based on phenolic compounds, for which both the spraying of the binder, the mixing of the binder with the fibers and the passage in the oven of these sized fibers are easily mastered by manufacturers. It is understood that these binders traditionally used can pose a problem due to the possible release of toxic substances in the form of volatile organic compounds.
    The present invention is part of this context and aims to propose an annular device for projecting a sizing composition onto mineral fibers, for example glass fibers, comprising at least one distribution circuit for said sizing composition and at least one spray nozzle fluidly communicating with the distribution circuit and arranged around the periphery of the annular projection device for projecting the sizing composition onto the fibers intended to pass inside the annular projection device defined by an axis of revolution. According to the invention, the sizing composition is a binder based on bio-based products and at least one spray nozzle has a spray head having a slot, through which the binder based on bio-based products leaves the annular projection device, rectangular in section so as to form a flat jet of binder based on bio-based products.
    Such a solution allows the use, as a sizing composition of mineral fibers, of binder without phenolic components, and therefore more ecological, based on bio-based products, to form a "green binder", also known under the name of "Green Binder ”.
    If the use of a green binder is less problematic than that of a binder of the phenolic type from an ecological point of view, the inventors have found that spraying is made more complicated since the components of this green binder generate a more viscous binder than the phenolic type binder. For this, it is necessary to add water to the green binder before it is projected onto the fiber core. This additional supply of water can pose a problem of evaporation in the stations following the gluing station and according to the invention, in addition to the use of a green binder, the use of a spray nozzle allowing the formation a flat jet allows good distribution of the binder around the edge of the fiber core passing through the gluing station and thus avoiding a concentration of water on certain areas of this fiber core in order to facilitate the evaporation of this water supplied in abundance for the use of "green binder".
    Furthermore, such a solution makes it possible to concentrate the spray of sizing composition in order to control their orientation and prevent the jets sprayed by the nozzles from crossing. The inventors have indeed discovered that it was beneficial not to allow the jets sprayed by these nozzles to cross, such interference can generate a change in the size of the drops formed by coalescence.
    According to different characteristics of the invention, taken alone or in combination, it can be provided that:
    the at least one spray nozzle is oriented towards the inside of the annular projection device with a tilt angle determined relative to a plane of revolution of the annular projection device, said tilt angle being between 0 and 80 °; preferably, this angle of inclination is between 5 ° and 80 °; a minimum inclination of 5 ° is advantageous in that it avoids a rebound of the drops of binder on the toroid of fibers passing through the annular projection device, rebound which could penalize the subsequent projection of binder; more particularly, the angle of inclination may be between 5 ° and 70 °, a maximum inclination of 70 ° being advantageous in that it avoids spraying the binder along the fiber core in the direction of the conveyor located under the annular projection device and in that it allows the penetration of the binder into the core of fibers, while these fibers pass at high speed in front of the annular projection device; advantageously, the angle of inclination is between 5 ° and 60 °;
    - at least two spray nozzles consecutively arranged around the periphery of the annular projection device have an identical shape, distinguished from one another only by the inclination of their outlet channel; it can therefore be understood that, according to the invention, successive spray nozzles are essentially distinguished by their different orientation relative to the plane of revolution of the annular projection device, the identical or distinct shape, both in their outer casing and in the type of jet it achieves for example, being a secondary differentiation characteristic;
    - each spray nozzle being oriented towards the inside of the annular projection device with a tilt angle determined with respect to a plane of revolution of the annular projection device, at least two spray nozzles consecutively arranged around the periphery of the annular device projection are arranged so as to have an orientation relative to the plane of revolution of the annular projection device of an angle of inclination different from each other;
    - Each nozzle has a fixing body made integral with an annular tube defining the at least one distribution circuit, and at least two spray nozzles consecutively arranged around the periphery of the annular projection device having bodies arranged at the same level axial relative to the axis of revolution of the annular projection device;
    the annular projection device comprises a plurality of spray nozzles distributed around the periphery of the annular projection device, each of the spray nozzles comprising a spray head with a slot of rectangular section;
    - the rectangular section slot extends mainly in a direction parallel to the plane of revolution of the device; in other words, the rectangular section of the at least one spray nozzle is arranged so that the long side of the rectangle forming this rectangular section extends parallel to a plane of revolution of the annular projection device ;
    - The rectangular section of the at least one spray nozzle is dimensioned so that the flat jet of binder based on bio-based products corresponding has a first angular opening between 40 ° and 120 °, in a first direction corresponding to the long side of said slot; preferably, the first angular opening is between 50 ° and 70 °;
    - The rectangular section of the at least one spray nozzle is dimensioned so that the flat jet of binder based on bio-based products corresponding has a second angular opening between 5 ° and 40 °, in a second direction corresponding to the short side of said slot; preferably, the second angular opening is between 10 ° and 30 °, and it can advantageously be between 15 ° and 25 °;
    - The rectangular section of the at least one spray nozzle is dimensioned so that the first angular opening is at least twice the second angular opening; preferably, the value of the first angular opening is substantially equal to three times the value of the second angular opening;
    by way of example, the second angular opening can be between 16 ° and 17 °, and the first angular opening can be between 50 ° and 60 °;
    - The annular projection device comprises a plurality of spray nozzles and each nozzle is adjacent to nozzles whose orientation relative to the plane of revolution of the angular projection device is different from its own;
    - the nozzles are distributed in at least two sets, between a first set in which each nozzle is configured so that the orientation relative to the plane of revolution of the annular projection device takes a first angle of inclination and a second set in which each nozzle is configured so that the orientation relative to the plane of revolution of the annular projection device takes a second angle of inclination distinct from the first angle, the spray nozzles being arranged on the periphery of the annular projection device with a alternating nozzles of the first set and nozzles of the second set; this arrangement contributes to the fact that the jets sprayed by the nozzles cross and to avoid a change in the size of the drops formed by coalescence; thus, it is possible according to the invention to have nozzles close to one another, to ensure a covering of the fiber core more than 100% and to ensure that the fiber core is correctly bonded even in the event of failure of a nozzle, while avoiding the risk if they all operate simultaneously that the jets sprayed by these nozzles are not in the desired shape; the homogeneity of the composition distribution of a sizing composition is thus aimed at on a glass fiber core, since this sizing composition can be projected around the entire periphery of the core and with a controlled shape of the drops which do not not vary by spray area.
    - the nozzles of the first set are configured so that they are oriented relative to the plane of revolution of the annular projection device with a first angle of inclination between 0 ° and 45 °; preferably, the first angle of inclination can be between 5 ° and 40 °;
    - the nozzles of the second set are configured so that they are oriented relative to the plane of revolution of the annular projection device with a second angle of inclination between 25 ° and 80 °; preferably, the second angle of inclination can be between 25 ° and 60 °;
    - the distribution circuit of the binder based on bio-based products comprises a single supply and a plurality of orifices communicating respectively with a spray nozzle;
    the annular projection device comprises two separate distribution circuits offset along the axis of revolution of the annular projection device, the spray nozzles being arranged between these two distribution circuits so as to be in fluid communication with each of said circuits of distribution ;
    - a first distribution circuit is configured to receive the binder based on bio-based products and a second distribution circuit is configured to receive compressed air;
    - The first distribution circuit has an average section of diameter less than the diameter of the average section of the second distribution circuit;
    - The annular projection device includes means for controlling the flow of compressed air as a function of the amount of sizing composition to be sprayed onto the fibers.
    The invention also relates to an installation for manufacturing mineral wool, comprising fiberizing means configured to bring fibers inside a sizing station and in particular for sizing these fibers, characterized in that the station d sizing only comprises an annular device for projecting a sizing composition in accordance with what has just been described, the annular device being arranged so as to present a plane of revolution substantially perpendicular to the direction of passage of the core of fibers to be glued .
    In such an installation, the annular projection device can be arranged so that the first distribution circuit, associated with the spraying of binder based on bio-based products, is arranged downstream of the path of the fibers relative to the second distribution circuit, associated with compressed air.

    The invention relates to the implementation of specific spray nozzles for spraying a sizing composition, or binder, particular on a glass fiber torus, and more particularly it relates to the use of a green binder , or binder based on bio-based products, and on the spraying of this binder by means of specific nozzles in that they allow a flat spray of this green binder. As will be described below, the green binder, which requires a consequent supply of water, is thus sprayed avoiding the agglomeration of this binder on certain zones of the fiber core and thus avoiding possible problems of evaporation of the water contained in the binder in the operations following this spraying.
    Illustrated in FIG. 1 is a part of an installation 100 for manufacturing mineral wool, and more particularly glass wool, and more particularly various successive stations participating in the creation of an insulating mattress composed of bonded glass fiber components. an insulating material of the mineral wool type, for example glass wool. A first station, called fiberizing station 1, consists in obtaining fibers by means of a centrifugation plate, downstream of which there is a second station, said gluing station 2, in which mainly sizing the fibers 3 previously obtained with a binder, here a "green binder", to bind them together.
    The sized fibers are placed in a forming station on a conveyor belt 4, which takes them to an oven forming a crosslinking station 5 and inside which they are heated to crosslink the "green binder".
    The conveyor belt 4 is permeable to gases and to water, and it extends above suction boxes 6 for gases such as air, fumes and excess aqueous compositions resulting from the fiberizing process previously described. There is thus formed on the conveyor belt 4 a mattress 7 of glass wool fibers intimately mixed with the sizing composition. The mattress 7 is led by the conveyor belt 4 to the oven forming the crosslinking station 5 of the "green binder".
    It is understood that such an installation line is suitable for the production of products based on glass wool fibers, as will be described, but that it is obviously suitable for the production of products based on mineral fibers. .
    The fiberizing station 1 is here configured for the implementation of a fiberizing process by internal centrifugation. It will be understood that any type of centrifugation and associated centrifuge can be implemented with the lessons which will follow as soon as fibers are obtained at the outlet of the centrifuge for their passage to come into the gluing station.
    By way of example illustrated in FIG. 1, the molten glass can be brought into a net 14 from a melting furnace and first recovered in a centrifuge 12, then to escape in the form of a multitude of filaments rotated. The centrifuge 12 is also surrounded by an annular burner 15 which creates, at the periphery of the wall of the centrifuge, a gas stream at high speed and at a temperature high enough to draw the glass filaments into fibers in the form of a torus 16.
    It is understood that the example of fiberizing station given above is indicative and not limiting of the invention, and that we can also provide a fiberizing process by internal centrifugation with a basket and a perforated bottom wall, or with a plate with a solid bottom, as soon as the molten glass stretches by centrifugation to subsequently spread in the form of a toroid of fibers 16 in the gluing station.
    Furthermore, other non-limiting variants of the invention could be provided for this fiberizing station, and in particular alternative or cumulative means with respect to the annular burner, and for example heating means 18, for example of the inductor type, to keep the glass and the centrifuge at the right temperature.
    The fiber core 16 thus created is surrounded by an annular projection device with a sizing composition formed by a "green binder", the annular projection device being hereinafter referred to as sizing device 20, of which only two nozzles spray 22 are shown in Figure 1.
    We will now describe in more detail the annular projection device, or sizing device 20, arranged in the sizing station 2, in particular with reference to FIGS. 2 to 7.
    The sizing device 20 comprises an annular ring 21, having a general shape of revolution around an axis of revolution X-X. The ring 21 comprises two separate distribution circuits offset by a distance d along the axis of revolution XX and a plurality of spray nozzles 22 arranged between these two distribution circuits and configured to ensure fluid communication with the distribution circuits. distribution. We will be able to describe below variants relating to the number of distribution circuits of the ring and / or the circulation of fluid in these distribution circuits.
    In the example illustrated, the annular ring comprises in particular a first annular tube 23 inside which a first distribution duct 24 (visible in FIGS. 5 to 7 in particular) is arranged to allow circulation of a sizing composition , as well as a second annular tube 25, which extends along a plane of revolution, perpendicular to the axis of revolution XX of the annular ring 21, and parallel to the plane of revolution of the first annular tube 23. We define for the following a plane of revolution P of the annular projection device as being one or the other of the planes of revolution as they have just been described, or at least a plane parallel to these.
    Inside this second annular tube 25, a second distribution duct 26 (also visible in FIGS. 5 to 7) is provided to allow a circulation of compressed air, capable of projecting the sizing composition onto the passing fibers through the gluing device 20.
    The first annular tube 23 has a tubular shape whose internal wall, delimiting the first distribution conduit 24, has a constant section, or substantially constant over the entire periphery of the tube. By substantially constant section is meant a section which remains the same with a spacing of less than 5%. As an example, the average section of the first annular tube can have a diameter DI between 10mm and 30mm.
    The first annular tube 23 has a single supply zone 27 in which is attached a supply pipe 28 of a sizing composition, connected at its other end to a reservoir of this sizing composition not shown here and in which is made of a mixture of water and glue.
    The sizing composition here consists of a binder with a low formaldehyde content, preferably even without formaldehyde, which will subsequently be described as a binder based on bio-based products, or "green binder". This type of binder is at least partially derived from a base of renewable raw material, in particular vegetable, in particular of the type based on hydrogenated sugars or not. We can find at the end of the description additional elements relating to embodiments of this "green binder", it being noted that the viscosity of these bio-based products implies the use of water in large quantities to dilute the whole and form a binder capable of to be projected by the nozzles.
    The supply pipe 28, by which "the green binder", or binder based on bio-based products, is brought into the annular projection device, is arranged parallel to the axis of revolution of the annular distribution crown, but it is understood that one could arrange this supply differently without departing from the context of the invention. It should however be noted that according to a characteristic of the invention, the "green binder" is injected into the first distribution conduit of the first annular tube via a single supply zone, the "green binder" being intended moreover to circulate all around the first distribution duct.
    The first annular tube 23 delimiting the first distribution conduit 24 also includes a plurality of outlet orifices 29 (visible in FIGS. 5 to 7 in particular), regularly distributed over the entire periphery of the first annular tube. As will be described in more detail below, each of these outlet orifices opens onto a spray nozzle 22 arranged to be in fluid communication with the first distribution conduit 24 via the corresponding outlet orifice.
    It follows from the above that the first annular tube 23 is dedicated to the distribution of the "green binder" in the direction of the spray nozzles 22.
    Furthermore, the second annular tube 25 has a tubular shape whose internal wall, delimiting the second distribution conduit 26, has a constant section, or substantially constant over the entire periphery of the tube. By substantially constant section is meant a section which remains the same with a spacing of less than 5%. As an example, the average section of the second annular tube can have a diameter D2 between 30mm and 50mm.
    In accordance with the first annular tube, the second annular tube 25 has a single supply zone 31 in which a supply connection 31 ’is attached for a compressed air supply.
    The compressed air supply connection 31 ′ is arranged parallel to the axis of revolution of the annular distribution ring and parallel to the supply pipe 28 of “green binder”, but it is understood that this could be arranged differently. supply of compressed air without departing from the context of the invention. It should however be noted that according to a characteristic of the invention, the compressed air is injected into the second distribution duct of the second annular tube via a single supply zone, the compressed air being intended moreover to circulate over all the periphery of the second distribution duct.
    The second annular tube 25 delimiting the second distribution conduit 26 also includes a plurality of outlet orifices 30 (visible in FIGS. 5 to 7), regularly distributed over the entire periphery of the second annular tube. In accordance with what has been described for the first annular tube 23, each of these outlet orifices opens onto a spray nozzle 22 arranged to be in fluid communication with the second distribution conduit 26 via the corresponding outlet orifice, each spray nozzles 22 of the sizing device 20 being in fluid communication on the one hand with the first distribution conduit 24 and on the other hand with the second distribution conduit 26.
    It follows from the above that the second annular tube 25 is dedicated to the distribution of compressed air towards the spray nozzles 22.
    As can be seen in FIGS. 2 and 3 in particular, this second annular tube 25, delimiting the second distribution conduit 26 dedicated to the circulation of compressed air, is disposed above the first annular tube 23, delimiting the first conduit dispenser 24 dedicated to the circulation of the sizing composition. For the correct understanding of the term above, we refer to the position of the gluing device in the installation. The second annular tube 25 disposed above the first annular tube 23 is disposed as close as possible to the centrifugation plate from which the fibers fall, so that these fibers forming the torus 16 are first made to pass through the annular tube delimiting the duct dedicated to compressed air.
    The diameter of the ring formed by the first tube around the axis of revolution of the annular crown is greater than the corresponding diameter of the second tube, so that these two annular tubes are arranged one above the other. with a radial offset r so that the second annular tube is more inside than the first annular tube.
    This results in an inclined orientation, relative to the axis of revolution of the annular ring, of the spray nozzles 22 which are integral with each of the two annular tubes. As will be described below, different embodiments can be provided in which the spray nozzles are fixed on the annular tubes so that their angle of inclination relative to the axis of revolution is constant over the entire periphery of the annular projection device (in particular visible in FIGS. 2, 3 and 7) or else so that this angle of inclination varies from one nozzle to another (in particular visible in 4 to 6). It is understood that these variants are included in the context of the invention, since the nozzles allow the spraying of a green binder by means of specific nozzles with flat jet.
    The first and second annular tubes are configured so that their internal wall respectively delimiting the first and second distribution conduits has a mean section different from each other. In particular the internal wall of the second tube defines an average section of diameter D2 greater than the diameter DI of the average section of the internal wall of the second annular tube. The passage section for the "green binder" is therefore smaller than the passage section for compressed air. This characteristic makes it possible to ensure that the first, narrower distribution conduit is constantly filled with the binder and that there is no fault in the supply of the spray nozzles. Furthermore, the fact of small dimensioning the first distribution conduit makes it possible to accelerate the speed of movement of the "green binder" in this first conduit and therefore to prevent possible fouling of the first annular tube.
    It should be noted, in the same context, the distinction to be made between the first annular tube and the second annular tube. As stated above, these two annular tubes have a constant mean section. At least the first annular tube 23 undergoes a chemical deburring operation, in order to remove the edges at the connection of the outlet orifices 29 and the supply pipe on this first annular tube 23. In this way there again, the aim is to prevent the deposition of bio-based products forming part of the binder inside the first annular tube. It is understood that the viscous nature of these components presents a risk of seeing them remain attached to any excessively marked roughness inside the annular tube and that the context of application of these green binders in the annular projection device according to the invention implies taking into account this surface roughness and the dimensioning of the annular tube in which the green binder is caused to circulate.
    The difference in internal diameter of the annular tubes also results in a difference in the external diameter of these tubes, so that a larger tube is provided for the air intake than for the arrival of the composition. gluing. In the example illustrated, the larger tube is found above the smaller tube and fixing flanges, not shown here, for fixing the crown in the gluing station can be attached in particular to the larger tube . It is understood that the tubes could be arranged differently with respect to each other without departing from the context of the invention, with in particular the air intake tube which could be located below the smallest tube provided for the sizing composition.
    As illustrated in FIGS. 2 to 7 in particular, the annular tubes 23, 25 forming the annular conduit 21 are arranged one above the other so that the first outlet orifices of the first distribution conduit and the second outlet orifices of the second distribution conduit are superposed axially, that is to say that they are angularly distributed in the same way around the corresponding axis of revolution of the conduit.
    In this way, the spray nozzle 22 which puts in fluid communication a first outlet orifice of the first distribution conduit with a second outlet orifice of the second distribution conduit, extends axially, that is to say in a plane comprising the axis of revolution XX of the annular crown.
    As illustrated in particular in FIGS. 5 to 7, the spray nozzle 22 comprises a body 32 which extends between the two annular tubes, a liquid nozzle 34 which extends across this body 32 along an axis of orientation AA and at the free end of which is disposed a spray head, or air cap, 36 configured to allow the nebulization of the binder based on bio-based products, or "green binder", according to a flat jet.
    The body 32 has a cylindrical shape, here of rectangular section, comprising two internal channels so that the body can receive on the one hand the "green binder" coming from the first distribution conduit 24 via a first outlet orifice 29, and d on the other hand, the compressed air coming from the second distribution conduit 26 via a second outlet orifice 30. The body 32 is thus defined by an elongation axis YY which extends from one annular tube to the other. In the configuration illustrated in FIG. 7, the spray nozzle 22 is configured so that the axis of elongation YY coincides with a straight line passing through the center of each of the annular tubes and this results in an angle a between the orientation axis AA of the liquid nozzle 34 and the plane of revolution P of the annular projection device here equal to 40 °. As illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3, the set of spray nozzles 22 is arranged so as to have such a tilt angle, of a value equal to 40 °. In general, the spray nozzles can have a common tilt angle of between 0 and 80 °.
    The body 32 of each spray nozzle 22 is welded to the annular tubes, once its ends are placed opposite the outlet orifices provided in each of the tubes.
    A first face 38 of the body 32 is oriented towards the inside of the annular ring and its axis of revolution X-X and a second face 39 is oriented opposite. The body comprises in its center, transverse to the axis of elongation YY of the body, a sheath for receiving the liquid nozzle 34 opening at each end on one of the first and second faces of the body 32. The sheath extends substantially in the center of the body, that is to say equidistant from the first annular tube 23 and the second annular tube 25. The sheath is pierced so as to communicate with a first internal channel 42, communicating with the first outlet orifice 29 and extending parallel to the elongation axis YY of the body 32. These internal channels are configured to bring the compressed air and the sizing composition separately near the spray head 36.
    The spray head 36 has a domed shape defining a mixing chamber at the outlet from the liquid nozzle 34, in which the compressed air and the sizing composition mix to form the drops which are caused to be sprayed via a spray slot 50 formed in the spray head.
    It is understood that the spray nozzle 22 is configured to allow fluid communication between the first distribution conduit 24 of the annular tube 23 and / or the second distribution conduit 26 of the annular tube 25, and that the spray slot 50, through which the binder based on bio-based products leaves the annular projection device, is configured for the projection of a sizing spray on the fiber core and the dispersion of this spray over a determined angular range.
    The spraying slot 50 is centered on the orientation axis AA of the spraying nozzle, that is to say on the axis of the hollow rod 46 defining the pipe for circulating the sizing composition to the inside the body of the nebulizer, and it is understood that the orientation axis AA of the spray nozzle defines the main direction of projection according to which the sizing composition will be sprayed at the outlet of the spray nozzle.
    As can be seen in FIG. 5 in particular, the spraying slot 50 has a rectangular section, forming a flat jet nozzle, so that in the main direction of projection, the "green binder" is projected at an angle of opening determined by the length of the rectangular section.
    The spray head 36 is oriented so that the length of the spray slot 50, that is to say the large side Gc of the rectangle forming this slot, as can be seen in particular in FIG. 4b, is perpendicular to the plane passing through the axis of revolution XX of the annular ring and through the orientation axis AA of the spray nozzle, and parallel to the plane of revolution P of the annular projection device and therefore of each annular tube of this device.
    The spraying of binder based on bio-based products is, according to the invention, framed by the shape of the spraying slot of at least one of the spraying nozzles, namely a slot of rectangular section dimensioned so that the jet of binder based of corresponding biobased products has a first angular opening βι between 40 ° and 120 °, in a first direction corresponding to the long side Gc of said slot 50, and a second angular opening β2 between 5 ° and 40 °, in a second direction corresponding to the short side Pc of said slot 50. This results in a flat jet, that is to say a jet which extends in a main direction, here the first direction. It is understood that the values chosen for the angular openings must respect this form of flat jet and that, if the second angular opening is equal to or in the vicinity of 40 °, the first angular opening will be at least equal to 80 °. In other words, the value of the first angular opening βι is at least twice the value of the second angular opening β2 and it advantageously corresponds to a little more than three times that of the value of second angular opening. As a numerical example, it is possible to provide a second angular opening β2 with a value around 16 ° or 17 ° and a first angular opening with a value around 51 ° to 60 °.
    It is advantageous that the first direction is parallel to the plane of revolution P of the annular projection device, that is to say the plane in which each of the annular tubes of the device is inscribed, and therefore that this first direction is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the fibers through the annular projection device 20. Thus, a spray is ensured on a large angular portion of the fiber core, and the covering by the binder of all the fibers passing through the device projection ring is obtained with a reduced number of spray nozzles.
    The operation of the sizing device equipped with at least one spray nozzle as just described is as follows. Appropriate control means make it possible to control the arrival of the "green binder" inside the first distribution conduit via the supply pipe 28. The "green binder" is pushed to circulate around the entire periphery of the annular tube delimiting this first distribution duct, and to circulate towards each of the first orifices 29 communicating with the spray nozzle 22. The “green binder” penetrating into the spray nozzle 22 passes inside the liquid nozzle 34 via the sheath 40 and is pushed towards the spray head 36 and the mixing chamber.
    Simultaneously, appropriate control means allow the supply of compressed air to be controlled, at a desired flow rate and pressure, inside the second distribution conduit via the supply connection 31 ’. The air flow and pressure are notably determined according to the dosage of the sizing composition. The compressed air is pushed to circulate around the entire periphery of the annular tube delimiting this second distribution duct, and to circulate towards each of the second orifices communicating with the spray nozzle 22. The compressed air penetrating into the spray nozzle 22 is pushed into the circulation lines 48 at the periphery of the liquid nozzle 34 towards the spray head 36 and the mixing chamber, in which the mixture of the compressed air and the "green binder" participates in the nebulization of the binder, the control of the air flow as a function of the quantity of binder sprayed, in particular allowing to play on the size of the drops.
    As illustrated in Figures 2 to 6 in particular, the sizing device according to the invention comprises a plurality of spray nozzles, arranged around the periphery of the annular ring. These nozzles are distributed angularly regularly over the entire periphery of the crown. It is understood that according to the embodiments of the invention, the number of nozzles, and therefore the angular spacing between two neighboring nozzles, can vary from one gluing device to another. In FIG. 2, the sizing device comprises a series of sixteen spray nozzles, so that the angular spacing between two successive nozzles in the series is 22.5 °.
    These nozzles are arranged at the same axial level, that is to say each arranged between the first annular tube and the second annular tube, so that the body of each nozzle is centered on the same plane perpendicular to the axis of revolution of the annular crown. In other words, we can say that the spray nozzles are configured so that their body, that is to say their junction with each of the annular tubes, extend at the same height.
    We will now describe a variant arrangement of the spray nozzles according to the invention, which differs in particular from what has been described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3 by the variable inclination of at least two of these nozzles around the periphery of the annular crown.
    In Figures 4, 5 and 6, there is illustrated an exemplary embodiment in which all the spray nozzles are of identical design, so that the nozzles differ only in the inclination of their axis of orientation A-A. It will be understood that without departing from the context of the invention, the spray nozzles could differ in their design, since at least two spray nozzles extending at the same height have different inclinations from one to the other. other.
    According to the invention, at least two consecutive spray nozzles arranged on the periphery of the crown, that is to say two adjacent spray nozzles as illustrated in FIG. 4, are arranged so that the orientation axis AA, and therefore its outlet channel, from one of these two nozzles has an angle relative to the plane of revolution of the crown different from that presented by the other of the two nozzles.
    In the example illustrated, there are at least two sets of spray nozzles, which are distinguished by their inclination relative to the plane of revolution of the crown. The spray nozzles of a first assembly 221, such as that visible in FIG. 6, are inclined so that the orientation axis AA forms with the plane of revolution of the annular ring a first angle a 1, here equal to 30 °. And the spray nozzles of a second assembly 222, such as that visible in FIG. 6, are inclined so that the orientation axis AA forms with the plane of revolution of the annular ring a second angle a2, here equal at 45 °.
    It is understood, due to the characteristic of the invention that two adjacent nozzles have different inclinations, that the nozzles of each of these two sets are alternated around the entire periphery of the annular ring, so that a nozzle a first set 221 of given spray nozzles is not close to a nozzle forming part of the same set, that is to say is not close to a nozzle having the same inclination relative to the plane of revolution of the annular crown. A spray nozzle 22 of a first set 221 of nozzles is alternated around the periphery, a spray nozzle 22 of a second set 222 of nozzles, then again a spray nozzle 22 of a first set 221 of nozzles, etc ...
    Illustrated in Figures 5 and 6 is an example according to the invention for the realization of different inclinations from one spray nozzle to another.
    In each of the two cases illustrated, the center C of the sheath (as it can be seen in particular in FIG. 7) formed in the body and the center of each of the annular tubes are aligned. And the body is pivoted around this central point defined by the center C of the sheath to come to bear against the corresponding annular tube in a contact area 52 more or less distant from the vertical axis, that is to say the axis parallel to the axis of revolution of the annular ring and passing through the center of this tube. As a result, the center C of the sleeve of each body is in substantially the same position relative to the annular tubes from one case to another, without axial offset relative to the axis of revolution X-X. In other words, the bodies of the spray nozzles having different inclinations are arranged at the same axial level relative to the axis of revolution of the annular projection device.
    In a first radial cutting plane illustrated in FIG. 5 and corresponding to the cutting plane V-V in FIG. 4, a spray nozzle of a first set 221 of nozzles has been illustrated. The first outlet of the first tube and the second outlet are spaced from the vertical axis proper to each annular tube and this results in a first inclination of the nozzle body so that its ends overlap the two outlet ports . This first inclination is equal to the inclination of angle al of the orientation axis AA of the spray nozzle of a first assembly 221 relative to the plane of revolution, that is to say here equal to 30 °.
    In a second radial section plane illustrated in FIG. 6 and corresponding to the section plane VI-VI of FIG. 4, there is illustrated a spray nozzle of a second set 222 of nozzles. The first outlet of the first tube and the second outlet are closer to the vertical axis proper to each annular tube than they are in the first section plane, and this results in a second inclination of the body of the nozzle so that its ends overlap the outlet orifices. This second inclination is equal to the inclination of angle a2 of the axis of orientation A-A of the spray nozzle of the second set 222 relative to the plane of revolution, that is to say here equal to 45 °.
    It should be noted that a spray nozzle of a first assembly and a spray nozzle of a second assembly, and in particular two consecutive nozzles arranged around the periphery of the annular projection device, have an identical shape, as may be be illustrated in the figures, and that these nozzles are distinguished from each other only by the inclination of the body connecting the two distribution conduits and therefore by the inclination of their outlet channel.
    As illustrated in FIG. 1, this difference in orientation of the nozzles of the first set 221 and of the nozzles of the second set 222 results in a difference in the height of projection of the jets of binder on the fiber core 16. The binder sprayed by the nozzles of the first set 221 thus impact the fibers earlier than the binder sprayed by the nozzles of the second set 222. In this way, the first spray 201 sprayed by a nozzle of the first set 221 extends on a plane offset axially relative to the plane in which the second spray 202 extends projected by a nozzle of the second set 222 and the drops formed in a spray do not meet, or at least within acceptable limits, drops formed in a spray close to so as to eliminate or limit a problem of coalescence of drops that the meeting of sprays could generate. FIG. 4 shows by way of example an axial overlap zone ZR, in which drops formed at an orthoradial end 201 ′ of the first spray 201 pass over the drops formed at an orthoradial end 202 ′ of the second spray 202. In this overlap zone, the axial offset along the axis of revolution XX ensures that the drops do not meet and do not risk being deformed. It is thus possible to arrange two adjacent spray nozzles as closely as possible, insofar as they are part of separate nozzle assemblies, and therefore with distinct orientations, so as to form these overlapping zones without risk of modification of the drops and so to be able to provide a redundancy function necessary for sizing the entire periphery of the fiber core in the event of a malfunction of one of the spray nozzles. It is easy to understand, in particular based on the illustration in FIG. 4, that insofar as a spray nozzle of a first assembly 221 stops working, the adhesive could continue to be sprayed into the area ZR by a nozzle adjacent to a second set 222, at a height different from that at which said zone ZR would have been glued by the nozzle of the first set 221. It is this difference in projection height generated by the differences in inclination neighboring nozzles which prevents the format of the drops delivered by these two neighboring nozzles from being modified if they are both in working condition.
    An arrangement according to the invention can be implemented in the device described and illustrated above, and can also be implemented, without departing from the context of the invention, in other embodiments of devices. By way of example, provision could be made for the device to have spray nozzles arranged directly on an annular tube inside which circulates the "green binder", the air being supplied independently for each nozzle, without it being necessary to provide an air distribution duct common to each nozzle and therefore spray nozzles arranged between two ducts as described above. Consequently, such a device is in accordance with the invention in that it comprises a distribution circuit for the "green binder" and a plurality of spray nozzles communicating fluidly with the distribution circuit and distributed around the periphery of the annular device for projection to project the "green binder" onto the glass fibers intended to pass inside the annular projection device defined by an axis of revolution, each spray nozzle being configured for the projection of a green binder in the form of a jet dish.
    According to another example, provision may be made for the spray nozzles to be so-called "air-less" nozzles, that is to say nozzles operating without the addition of compressed air to produce the projection of binder. In this case, a first variant can be provided in which the structure of the annular projection device is kept with the two annular tubes arranged one above the other along the axis of revolution and the spray nozzles arranged respectively between these two annular tubes, and in which the second annular tube has only a structural function, without serving as a distribution circuit. Only the binder based on bio-based products circulates in the first distribution circuit formed by the first annular tube, and no air is sent into the second annular tube. A second variant can also be provided in which the annular projection device only comprises an annular tube on which the spray nozzles are arranged, it being understood that, according to the invention, the spray nozzles fixed to this single annular tube comprise a spray head configured for the projection of a flat jet.
    According to another example, it may be provided that the nozzles are distributed in more than two sets, each set being as previously characterized by nozzles having a specific angle of inclination. It is possible to provide a first assembly defined by nozzles having an inclination a equal to 15 °, a second assembly defined by nozzles having an inclination a equal to 30 °, and a third assembly defined by nozzles having an inclination a equal to 45 °. As before, this avoids having side by side nozzles having the same inclination and the jet of which is likely to be disturbed by the neighboring jet.
    We will now describe in more detail the binder based on bio-based products, through various non-limiting exemplary embodiments, as it can be injected into the annular projection device according to one aspect of the invention with a view to its spraying onto a toroid of fibers in a mineral wool manufacturing installation, it being recalled that this use of binder based on bio-based products is made possible in particular by the use of flat jet spray nozzles allowing the appropriate distribution of this binder on the fiber surface.
    By way of nonlimiting example, the binder based on bio-based products can contain:
    (a) at least one carbohydrate chosen from reducing sugars, non-reducing sugars, hydrogenated sugars and a mixture of these, and (b) at least one crosslinking agent for the carbohydrate (s).
    The term “carbohydrate crosslinking agent” is understood here to mean a compound capable of reacting, optionally in the presence of a catalyst, with the carbohydrates and of forming with them a three-dimensional network at least partially insoluble.
    Furthermore, the term "carbohydrates" has a broader meaning here than usual, since it includes not only carbohydrates in the strict sense, that is to say reducing sugars or carbohydrates of formula C M (H2O) ^ having at least one aldehyde or ketone group (reducing group), but also the hydrogenation products of these carbohydrates where the aldehyde or ketone group has been reduced to alcohol. This term also includes non-reducing sugars made up of several carbohydrate units whose carbons carrying the hemi-acetal hydroxyl are involved in the osidic bonds connecting the units together.
    A binder based on bio-based products as just presented, namely a sizing composition based on carbohydrates and crosslinking agent, preferably polycarboxylic acids, is described for example in US 8197587, WO2010 / 029266, WO2013 / 014399, WO2015 / 181458, WO2012 / 168619, WO2012 / 168621, WO2012 / 072938.
    The carbohydrate component can be based on reducing, non-reducing sugars, hydrogenated sugars free from reducing or non-reducing sugars, or mixtures thereof.
    Reducing sugars include oses (monosaccharides) and osides (disaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides). As examples of monosaccharides, mention may be made of those comprising from 3 to 8 carbon atoms, preferably the aldoses and advantageously the aldoses containing 5 to 7 carbon atoms. The particularly preferred aldoses are natural aldoses (belonging to the D series), in particular hexoses such as glucose, mannose and galactose. Lactose or maltose are examples of disaccharides which can be used as reducing sugar. The polysaccharides which can be used for the present invention preferably have a weight-average molar mass of less than 100,000, preferably less than 50,000, advantageously less than 10,000. Preferably, the polysaccharide contains at least one motif chosen from the abovementioned aldoses, advantageously glucose. Particularly preferred are reducing polysaccharides which consist mainly (more than 50% by weight) of glucose units.
    The reducing sugar can in particular be a mixture of monosaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides, in particular a dextrin. Dextrins are compounds corresponding to the general formula (C6HioOsjn. They are obtained by partial hydrolysis of starch. Their dextrose equivalent (DE) is advantageously between 5 and 99, preferably between 10 and 80.
    The non-reducing sugar is preferably a non-reducing oligoholoside containing at most ten carbohydrate units. As examples of such non-reducing sugars, mention may be made of diholosides such as trehalose, isotrehaloses, sucrose and isosaccharoses (“isosucroses” in English), triholosides such as melezitose, gentianose, raffinose, erlose and umbelliferosis, tetraholosides such as stachyose, and pentaholosides such as verbascose. Sucrose and trehalose are preferred, and more preferably sucrose.
    By “hydrogenated sugar” is meant in the present invention all the products resulting from the reduction of a saccharide chosen from monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides and mixtures of these products. Hydrogenated sugar is preferably a hydrogenation product of a starch hydrolyzate (degree of hydrolysis is generally characterized by the dextrose equivalent (DE), between 5 and 99, and advantageously between 10 and 80). The hydrogenation transforms the sugar or the mixture of sugars (starch hydrolyzate) into polyols or sugar alcohols.
    Examples of hydrogenated sugars that may be mentioned include erythritol, arabitol, xylitol, sorbitol, mannitol, iditol, maltitol, isomaltitol, lactitol, cellobitol, palatinitol, maltotritol and the hydrogenation products of starch hydrolysates. Preferably, the hydrogenated sugar or the mixture of hydrogenated sugars consists mainly, that is to say more than 50% by weight, of maltitol (maltose hydrogenation product, glucose dimer resulting from enzymatic hydrolysis starch).
    Component (a), namely the carbohydrate consisting of hydrogenated sugars and / or reducing and / or non-reducing sugars, advantageously represents from 30 to 70% by weight, preferably from 40 to 60% by weight of dry matter of the sizing composition. These values are understood before the addition of any additives.
    The crosslinking agent, that is to say component (b), used in the present invention is preferably chosen from polycarboxylic acids, salts and anhydrides of polycarboxylic acids, amines, metal salts of mineral acids, and the amine and ammonium salts of mineral acids, as well as mixtures of the aforementioned compounds.
    The mineral acids are, for example, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid and hydrochloric acid. The metal salts can be the alkali, alkaline earth and transition metal salts.
    The mineral acids and their salts which can be used as crosslinking agent in the present invention are described for example in applications WO2012 / 168619, WO2012 / 168621 and WO2012 / 072938.
    In a preferred embodiment, the crosslinking agent comprises a polycarboxylic acid or is a polycarboxylic acid. The polycarboxylic acid can be a polymeric acid (i.e. obtained by polymerization of carboxylated monomers) or a monomeric acid.
    To limit the viscosity of the sizing composition, this polycarboxylic acid advantageously has a number-average molar mass less than or equal to 50,000, preferably less than or equal to 10,000 and advantageously less than or equal to 5,000.
    Examples of polymeric polycarboxylic acids that may be mentioned include homopolymers and copolymers obtained from monomers bearing at least one carboxylic acid group such as (meth) acrylic acid, crotonic acid, isocrotonic acid, maleic acid, cinnamic acid, 2-methylmaleic acid, fumaric acid, itaconic acid, 2-methylitaconic acid, a, b-methyleneglutaric acid and unsaturated dicarboxylic acid monoesters , such as C 1 -C 10 alkyl maleates and fumarates. The copolymers can also contain one or more vinyl or acrylic monomers such as vinyl acetate, styrene substituted or not by alkyl, hydroxyl or sulfonyl groups, or by a halogen atom, (meth) acrylonitrile, (meth) acrylamide, Ci-Cio alkyl (meth) acrylates, in particular methyl (meth) acrylate, ethyl (meth) acrylate, n-butyl (meth) acrylate and d (meth) acrylate isobutyl.
    In a particularly preferred embodiment, component (b) is or comprises a monomeric polycarboxylic acid. The term polycarboxylic acid monomer means a polycarboxylic acid which does not result from the polymerization of carboxylated monomers. A polycarboxylic acid monomer therefore does not include a chain of recurring units.
    It can be a dicarboxylic, tricarboxylic or tetracarboxylic acid.
    Dicarboxylic acids include, for example, oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, pimelic acid, suberic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, tartronic acid, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, fumaric acid, itaconic acid, maleic acid, traumatic acid, camphoric acid, phthalic acid and its derivatives, in particular containing at least one boron or chlorine atom, tetrahydrophthalic acid and its derivatives, in particular containing at least one chlorine atom such as chlorendic acid, isophthalic acid , terephthalic acid, mesaconic acid and citraconic acid.

    Citric acid should preferably be used.
    Component (b) advantageously represents from 30 to 70% by weight, preferably from 40 to 60% by weight of dry matter of the sizing composition of the present invention. These values are understood before the addition of any additives.
    The weight ratio of component (a) to component (b) is preferably between 70/30 and 30/70, in particular between 60/40 and 40/60.
    The sizing composition can also comprise a catalyst which can be chosen, for example, from bases and Lewis acids, such as clays, colloidal or non-colloidal silica, metal oxides, urea sulfates, chlorides. urea and silicate catalysts. An esterification catalyst is preferred.
    The catalyst can also be a phosphorus-containing compound, for example an alkali metal hypophosphite, an alkali metal phosphite, an alkali metal polyphosphate, an alkali metal hydrogen phosphate, a phosphoric acid or an alkylphosphonic acid. Preferably, the alkali metal is sodium or potassium.
    The catalyst may also be a compound containing fluorine and boron, for example tetrafluoroboric acid or a salt of this acid, in particular an alkali metal tetrafluoroborate such as sodium or potassium, an alkaline earth tetrafluoroborate such as calcium or magnesium, a zinc tetrafluoroborate and an ammonium tetrafluoroborate.
    Preferably, the catalyst is sodium hypophosphite, sodium phosphite or a mixture of these compounds.
