6 Claims. (Cl. 113-49) This invention relates to automatic metallizing machines alnd, more particularly, to a foil holder for such a mac me.
1n the manufacture of incandescent lamps such as, for example, sealed-beam head lamps, wherein a metallized reflector surface on the interior surface of the .lamp envelope is required, metallic ferrules or leading-m conductors are first inserted and sealed along with an exhaust tubulation to the reflector or envelope. After annealing in a suitable oven and cooling to room temperature, the reflector member is then provided on an automatic machine with a metallized reflector surface, of material such as aluminum or silver, on its interior surface.
In the past,'V-shaped strips of aluminum foil or other suitable metallizing material have been placed by hand in a conventional tungsten coil foil holder. After a few flashes, the foil holder becomes rather brittle and then any contact made with it by the operators hand during the foil loading operation usually results in breakage. This breakage of the flashing coils results in considerable shut-down time and corresponding increase in production costs.
Hence, it has been found desirable according to our invention, to employ a foil holder 'in the form of a grid or grating. Further, by employing the metallizing foil in the shape of a corrugated strip, the foil may be loaded easily onto the foil holder grid of our invention without the operators hand contacting the holder, thereby reducing breakage to a minimum and eliminating the undesirable prior defects usually caused thereby.
In its general aspects, the present invention is concerned with eliminating the undesirable features and characteristics of the prior art foil holders for an automatic metallizing machine.
.,A specific object of the present invention is a grid-like foil holder which can be loaded with a corrugated strip of foil without operator contact.
Other objects of the present invention will appear to those skilled in the art to which it appertains as the description thereof proceeds.
In the accompanying drawing, in which like numerals of reference indicate similar parts throughout the several views:
Fig. l is a side elevational view, partially in section, of a metallizing head wherein the foil holder grid of our invention is employed.
Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the metallizing head on V the line 11-11 of Fig. 1, in the direction of the arrows.
Fig. 3 is a plan view of the foil holder grid and corrugated strip foil of our invention.
Fig. 4 is an end view of the holder of Fig. 3.
Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the corrugated foil strip of our invention.
Fig. 6 is a sectional view of the foil holder and foil on the line VIVI of Fig. 3, in the direction of the arrows.
Referring to the drawing, and more particularly to Figs. 1 and 2, a metallizing or aluminizing head for an automatic metallizing machine is designated by the reference numeral 10 and is suitably mounted on a head base 1.1 which rests on an indexing table 12.
This head 10 comprises an annular reflector mounting body 13 and is provided with an exhaust tube 14 in the bottom. Reflector gaskets 16 and 18 are retained against the body 13 by gasket clamps 20 and 22. A
pair of oppositely disposed foil holder electrodes 24 and 26 (Fig. 2) are mounted in the body 13 and provided 2,593,167 H Fatented Nov. 2, 1954 with suitable electrical connections 30 (only one of which is illustrated), extending to a suitable voltage supply (not shown). Between the electrodes 24 and 'Ao a Iuu nolder grid 32 of our invention is mounted axially with respect to the body 13. This grid 32 (big. 3) is a conveniently a tungsten strip having mounting portions 34 and 36 and a center or grating portion 38 composed of a series of continuous and parallel sections or connected hairpin turns lying in oneplane.
A pair of open necked reflectors or envelopes 40, each having an exhaust tubulation 42 and a plurality of ferrules 44, are positioned with the lips on their openends, against the head gaskets 16 and 18 respectively. Each reflector is kept in position thereat by means of a compression rubber 46 carried on and held against the end of the exhaust tube 42 by a spring arm 48, and thereby provided with a vacuum-tight seal after a suitable evacuation through the exhaust tube 14 in the body- 13. The lower end of each arm 48 is fixed to a shaft 50, rotatable in a bracket 52 on the head base 11. On the other end of each shaft 50 is a head clamp handle 54 for manually loading and unloading the head 10. A return spring 56, extending from the upper portion of each spring arm 48 to the inner end of its bracket 52, biases the arms 48 and maintains the compression rubbers 46 against the tubulations 42.
We have also found that the above mentioned defects of the prior art foil holder coils can be further minimized by employing a metallizing foil 58 havingthe shape of a corrugated strip, as shown in Fig. 5.
A suitable automatic aluminizing machine (not shown) may comprise for example, 16 such heads, 10, arranged and spaced about the indexable table 12, and indexing through a series ofstations thereon. i
At station 1 any finished or aluminized reflectors 40 may be unloaded from the head 10. At station 2 the metallizing foil 58 is placed onto the foil holder grid 32 of our invention, without operator contact with said holder, and a pair of oppositely disposed reflectors 4i] to be metallized are positioned against the gaskets 16 and 18 on the body 13 and held thereat by the compression rubbers 46. At stations 3 through 10 the interior of the oppositely disposed reflectors 40 is evacuated through the exhaust tube 14.
At stations 11, 12 and 13 a suitable voltage is applied across the connectors 30 and the foil holder electrodes 24 and 26, and hence the grid 32', to electrically heat said grid and the foil 58 thereon to a temperature which will completely vaporize the foil 58 onto the interior of the reflectors 40 without burning the coating already applied or vaporizing the tungsten grid 32. At station 11 the foil 58 is melted sufiiciently to flow around the grid 32. At station 12 practically all the foil 58 should be vaporized. At station 13 any spots of excess metallizing material are vaporized, thus leaving the grid practically free.
At stations 14, 15 and "16 the grid 32 and the now coated reflectors 40 are allowed to cool prior to unloading. At station 1 the now cooled aluminized reflectors 40 are unloaded from the head 10 by manual operation of the handles 54.
Thus it will be seen from the foregoing description that the present invention has overcome the disadvantages of the prior art foil holders for a head of an automatic metallizing machine. We have provided a foil holder grid and a corrugated strip metallizing foil which eliminate operator contact during the loading of said holder and reduce foil holder breakage and resultant machine down-time to a minimum.
Although a preferred embodiment has been disclosed, it will be understood that modifications may be made Without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
