Description

Die Erfindung betrifft alle Vorrichtungen wie Ketten, Bänder und nicht kreisförmig umlaufende Einheiten unterschiedlichster Ausführung und Verwendung, die mit umlaufenden Funktionseinheiten ausgestattet sind.The invention relates to all devices like chains, ribbons and not circular revolving units of various designs and uses, with revolving functional units are equipped.

Die bisherigen Lösungen können nur Vakuum auf einen Teilbereich des sich umlaufend bewegten Teiles bringen. Aus DE 198 47 249 A1 ist eine Transportketten-Einheit bekannt bei der an den Obertrum Vakuum zugeführt wird. Dies stellt eine wesentliche Einschränkung der Anwendungsmöglichkeiten dar, da nur einem Teilbereich und dann nur Vakuum zugeführt werden kann.The previous solutions can only apply a vacuum to a partial area of the rotating part. Out DE 198 47 249 A1 a transport chain unit is known in which vacuum is supplied to the upper run. This represents a significant restriction of the application possibilities, since only a partial area and then only vacuum can be supplied.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, im gesamten Bereich der Umlaufbahn den Einheiten jedes Medium zu zuführen. Wie zum Beispiel eine Transportkette oder Montagesysteme, bei denen sich Montagewagen auf einer Laufbahn bewegen.The invention is based on the object units of each medium in the entire area of the orbit respectively. Such as a transport chain or assembly systems where assembly cars move on a track.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsmäßig durch die prinzipielle Anordnung von Drehdurchführung und oder Schleifringübertragungselement und Kabel bzw. Schläuche gelöst. Die Drehdurchführung und oder Schleifringübertragungselement vollzieht die Umlaufbewegung mit und die Kabel bzw. Schläuche, welche verschiedenartig angeordnet sein können aber immer mit der Drehdurchführung und oder Schleifringübertragungselement verbunden sind, gleichen den wechselnden Abstand zwischen feststehendem und bewegtem Teil der Kabel bzw. Schläuche aus. Die Kabel bzw. Schläuche können in einer Energiezuführungskette geführt sein. Innerhalb der Kette bzw. Bandes oder der sonstigen, auch einzeln angetriebenen, Einheiten geschieht die Weiterleitung der entsprechenden Medien über Ringleitungen. Somit werden die Funktionseinheiten welche sich auf oder in der Kette bzw. Bandes befinden mit den entsprechenden Medien versorgt.This task is inventively by basic arrangement of rotary union and or slip ring transmission element and cables or hoses solved. The rotary union and or slip ring transmission element carries out the orbital movement and the cables or hoses, which can be arranged differently but always with the rotary union and or slip ring transmission element connected, equal the changing distance between the fixed and moving part of the cables or hoses. The cables or hoses can be in one Energy supply chain guided his. Within the chain or band or the other, also individually driven, units are forwarded to the appropriate Media about Ring lines. Thus the functional units which are on or in the chain or band with the appropriate media provided.

Die Betätigung der Funktionseinheiten kann ebenfalls auf verschiedenste Weise erfolgen: unmittelbar über zwangsgesteuerte Ventile, über Näherungsschalter oder direkt über die Maschinensteuerung. So können gezielt und mit hoher Geschwindigkeit die umlaufenden Funktionseinheiten verschiedene Funktionen ausführen.The actuation of the functional units can also be done in a variety of ways: directly via positively controlled Valves, over proximity switch or directly above the machine control. So can the rotating functional units in a targeted manner and at high speed perform various functions.

Für dieses Grundprinzip gibt es verschiedene konstruktive Lösungen. Bei einer Lösung befindet sich die Drehdurchführung bzw. Schleifringübertragungselement an dem umlaufenden Element bei einer anderen Lösung ist die Drehdurchführung stationär angebracht und führt nur eine Drehbewegung aus.For this basic principle there are various constructive solutions. With a solution is the rotating union or slip ring transmission element in another solution, the rotating union is attached to the rotating element in a stationary manner and leads just a rotary motion.

Die mit der Endung erzielten Vorteile bestehen insbesondere darin, dass Funktionseinheiten am Ketten oder Bandumfang gezielt mit verschiedenen Medien zu betätigen sind, und somit ganz neue Funktionalitäten für neue Maschinentypen möglich werden. Insbesondere für Aufgaben in der Fördertechnik und der Werkstückzuführtechnik für Produktionsanlagen mit hohem Teiledurchsatz bieten sich neue Möglichkeiten. Dieses System ermöglicht z.B. Werkzeugmaschinen mit Mehrstationen-Bearbeitung für kleinere bis mittlere Werkstücke mit der Produktionsleistung von mehrspindligen Dreh-Fräszentren.The advantages achieved with the ending consist in particular that functional units on chains or Band size can be operated with different media, and thus completely new functionalities for new ones Machine types possible become. Especially for Tasks in conveyor technology and the workpiece feed technology for production plants with high parts throughput there are new opportunities. This system allows e.g. Machine tools with multi-station machining for smaller ones to medium-sized workpieces with the production output of multi-spindle turning-milling centers.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand einer Prinzipskizze noch näher erläutert. Dabei zeigenThe invention is described below a schematic diagram even closer explained. Show

1 einen umlaufenden Körper (4), welcher die Funktionseinheiten aufnimmt und eine Gliederkette oder ein Band sein kann. Es können aber auch auf einer Führungsbahn einzelne umlaufende Einheiten sein. An diesem umlaufenden Körper ist mittels eines Halters eine Drehdurchführung bzw. ein Schleifringübertragungselement (1) befestigt, an welcher wiederum die Schläuche und Kabel zur Medienübertragung angeschlossen sind, diese werden in einer Energiezuführungskette (2) geführt. 1 a revolving body ( 4 ), which houses the functional units and can be a link chain or a belt. However, individual rotating units can also be on a guideway. A rotary leadthrough or a slip ring transmission element ( 1 ), to which the hoses and cables for media transmission are connected, these are connected in an energy supply chain ( 2 ) guided.

Der feste Punkt der Energiezuführungskette ist an dem Trägergestell für die Gliederkette bzw. der umlaufenden Einheiten befestigt. Der bewegliche Punkt der Energiezuführungskette ist an der Drehdurchführung angebracht und bewegt sich parallel zur Umlaufbahn der Funktionseinheiten (4). Der Teil der Drehdurchführung an dem die Energiezuführungskette befestigt ist führt beim Durchlaufen der Umlaufbahn nur eine waagrechte und senkrechte Bewegung (3) aus, der innere Teil der Drehdurchführung welcher starr mit dem Umlaufkörper verbunden ist führt die Drehbewegung aus.The fixed point of the energy supply chain is attached to the support frame for the link chain or the rotating units. The movable point of the energy supply chain is attached to the rotating union and moves parallel to the orbit of the functional units ( 4 ). The part of the rotating union to which the energy supply chain is attached only leads to a horizontal and vertical movement when it travels through the orbit ( 3 ) off, the inner part of the rotating union which is rigidly connected to the rotating body carries out the rotating movement.

2 eine Anordnung mit einer feststehenden Drehdurchführung (1) d.h. der innere Teil ist starr mit dem Trägergestell verbunden. Der äußere Teil der Drehdurchführung der mit der Energiezuführungskette verbunden ist führt die Drehbewegung aus. Der andere Befestigungspunkt der Energiezuführungskette ist mit dem umlaufenden Körper (4) fest verbunden. Die gesamte Energiezuführungskette (2) führt eine Schwenkbewegung (3) aus und wickelt sich beim Durchlaufen der Umlaufbahn zum Teil auf und ab. 2 an arrangement with a fixed rotating union ( 1 ) ie the inner part is rigidly connected to the support frame. The outer part of the rotating union that is connected to the energy supply chain carries out the rotating movement. The other attachment point of the energy supply chain is with the rotating body ( 4 ) firmly connected. The entire energy supply chain ( 2 ) performs a swivel movement ( 3 ) and partially winds up and down as it passes through the orbit.
