In a method and a system for installing loose insulation, loose wool is transported, in compacted state and packed in e.g. filled bags (12), to the site where the insulation operation is to be performed and where loose wool (11) received from the bags is mechanically fluffed, and where the fluffed loose wool is transported by blowing it through a hose (15) to the location where it is to be placed; and the loose wool supplied through the hose (15) is spread on said location in the desired configuration. The novelty of the invention resides in that the bags (12) containing loose wool first are so arranged as to be able, successively and in a controlled manner, to discharge the compacted loose wool contained therein for automatic fluffing and onward blowing through the hose, whereupon from the location where the spreading of loose wool takes place, the discharge of compacted loose wool from the bags is remote-controlled in connection with the spreading, whereby the method can be carried out by a single operator.

A system for installing loose insulation comprising equipment for fluffing insulation material fed thereinto and blowing the fluffed material onward, and a conduit for transporting onward-blown insulation material from the equipment to the location where the insulation material is to be placed, a storage and transport device for receiving and storing a number of units which each have compacted insulation material packed in a wrapping, the device being adapted to feed units successively and in a controlled manner to an emptying position for discharging the pertaining insulation material to the equipment for fluffing and onward blowing of the insulation material, means for controlled cutting-open of units located in the emptying position, such that the insulation material contained therein can be discharged, and control means for controlling the storage and transport device, cutting-open means and the equipment, the control means comprising remote-control means to be operated on the location where the insulation material is to be placed, such that overall control of the onward blowing of insulation material can be carried out from the location, wherein the storage and transport device comprises means for suspending insulation material units, and means for successively feeding the suspension means in a controlled manner along a feed track to the emptying position, the suspension means suspending units such that the units hang above the fluffing and onward-blow equipment, the suspension means including carrier rods which are each adapted to be applied through an insulation material unit and/or its wrapping, the carrier rods being supported in a manner to permit feed thereof in the storage and transport device in a controlled manner, the wrapping being substantially parallelepipedal, the carrier rod being of sufficient size to pass through one end wall of the wrapping, then along and close to an inside of a long side of the wrapping and out through an opposite end wall of the wrapping, the cutting-open means being configured for making auxiliary cuts in the wrapping in an opposite long side of the wrapping in a transverse direction and adjacent a receptive end wall, the auxiliary cuts extending throughout a major part of the side and being extended in one direction into an adjoining side of the wrapping, and for making emptying cuts in the adjoining side across the auxiliary cuts, along and at a lower edge of the adjoining side.
