a pressing unit, having a plenty of equally-spaced shorter first slots and long second slots on a circumferential surface of the pressing unit, and exerting pressure on the revolving unit and the guiding unit, wherein either the first slot or the second slot is aligned with the spacing column of the positioning unit.
2. The pressable pen of claim 1, wherein a cap placed at a circumferential surface of the cosmetic head of the front end of the tube body, is designed to seal with the sealing unit at the front end of the tube body.
3. The pressable pen of claim 1, wherein the cosmetic is a brush.
4. The pressable pen of claim 1, wherein the cosmetic is a lipstick.
5. The pressable pen of claim 1, wherein the inner portion of the tube body has a circular slot which can be wedged with a corresponding ring of the base, and the bottom of the base has a stopping element around the bottom circumferential surface of the tube body.
The claims below are in addition to those above.
All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
1. A thermomechanical pulping method comprising:
refining wood chips, pre-conditioned wood fibers or other comminuted cellulosic materials to a refined pulp with a high consistency refining stage, and
a medium consistency refining stage or multiple stages processing the refined pulp discharged from the high consistency refining stage.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein the high consistency refining stage includes refining the wood chips, the pre-conditioned wood fibers or the other comminuted cellulosic materials with a pressurized high consistency refiner.
3. The method of claim 1 further comprising at least one of: treating the wood chips, the pre-conditioned wood fibers or the other comminuted cellulosic materials by pressurized chip destructuring in a chip press and gentle defibration in a fiberizing refiner before the high consistency refiner.
4. The method of claim 3 wherein pretreatment chemicals are added at a discharge of one of a chip press discharge, fiberizer refiner and the high consistency refiner.
5. The method as in claim 1 wherein the high consistency refining stage includes refining the wood chips, the pre-conditioned wood fibers or the other comminuted cellulosic materials in a high intensity primary refiner.
6. The method as in claim 1 further comprising chemical treating the wood chips, the pre-conditioned wood fibers or the other comminuted cellulosic materials prior to or in the high consistency refining stage.
7. The method as in claim 1 further comprising diluting the refined pulp discharged by the high consistency refining stage in a standpipe and fluidizing the pulp in the standpipe, and feeding the fluidized refined pulp to the medium consistency refining stage.
8. The method as in claim 1 wherein the medium consistency refining stage includes a mechanical disc refiner having plate segments with an open inlet.
9. A thermomechanical pulping method comprising:
refining wood chips, pre-conditioned wood fibers or other comminuted cellulosic materials to a refined pulp in a high consistency refining (HCR) stage, wherein the refined pulp is in a suspension at a discharge of the HCR stage and the suspension has a pulp consistency of at least twenty percent (20%) by weight of the suspension;
diluting the suspension of refined pulp discharged from the HCR stage to a medium consistency having a pulp consistency in a range of 5% to 14% consistency by weight, and
refining the refined pulp in the medium consistency suspension from the dilution step using a medium consistency refining (MCR) stage.
10. The method of claim 9 wherein the dilution step is performed in a stand pipe having a conditioner fluidizing the refined pulp near a bottom of the stand pipe.
11. The method as in claim 9 further comprising preconditioning treatments applied to the high consistency pulp suspension prior to refining the pulp, wherein the preconditioning treatments enhance pulp in the HCR stage.
12. The method as in claim 9 further comprising pumping the pulp suspension diluted to a medium consistency through a medium consistency pump to the refining step for the medium consistency pulp.
13. A thermomechanical pulping system comprising:
a high consistency refining stage having an inlet receiving wood chips, pre-conditioned wood fibers or other comminuted cellulosic materials, a refining zone, and an outlet discharging refined high consistency pulp;
a pulp dilution stage have a first inlet to receive the refined high consistency pulp and a second inlet to receive a liquor, a chamber to dilute the refined high consistency pulp with the liquor to form medium consistency pulp, and an outlet discharging the medium consistency pulp, and
a medium consistency refining stage having an inlet receiving the medium consistency pulp from the outlet of the pulp dilution stage, wherein the medium consistency refining stage includes a refining zone to refine the medium consistency pulp and an outlet for the refined medium consistency pulp.
14. The thermomechanical pulping system of claim 13 wherein the high consistency refining stage includes a pressurized high consistency refiner.
