Abstract
The lower portions of the guard rings of a row of rotary fiberizing units are surrounded by an elongate rectangular noise suppressor having front and rear panels extending lengthwise of the row and transverse end panels connecting the front and rear panels. The panels have impervious sheet steel at their outer surfaces, but are provided with screens of expanded steel at their inner surfaces and are filled with a sound deadening material. Between each pair of adjacent fiberizing units a panel-like expanded steel basket full of sound deadening material is suspended immediately below the guard rings and connected to the front and rear panels. The front panel is segmented into removable doors enabling the fiberizer units to be moved out of the noise suppressor for inspection or repair.
