DE4025395A1 - Covering end edges of furniture plates - involves adhesive tape guide with contact pressure roller and cutter - Google Patents

Abstract

The device for covering the end edges of furniture panels comprises a hand-held appts. (1) with a holder (8) for a reel of adhesive tape and with an edge guide groove (9) which can be fitted onto the edge (2) of the furniture panel (3) so as to engage over this edge. The guide groove (9) is open at the end side where it is adjoined by an adhesive tape guide (10) with contact pressure roller (11) and cutter (12). The hand-held device can comprise two side plates (4) with grips (5) which are connected together by forming an upper intermediate space (6) to act as the holder for the adhesive tape. USE/ADVANTAGE - Different width tapes can be used to ensure accurate covering of the edges of the furniture panels.

Description

The object of the invention relates to a masking device tion for the front edges of furniture panels, which with a Paint application or the like. To be provided.

When painting furniture panel fronts it is to be achieved a clean, straight lacquer edge that is already known treated or differently colored edges manually cover with an adhesive tape that after the surfaces treatment is withdrawn again.

Manual masking of the front edges is time-consuming and requires the greatest care when setting, rolling and Press the adhesive tape so that the clean paint edge is achieved. It is different because of that wide edges also necessary, different widths To provide adhesive tapes.

The invention specified in claim 1 is Problem based on combining the manual masking process problems and also for less trained specialists to get started.

Advantageous developments of the invention are the sub claims.

The advantages achieved with the invention are in particular special in that by means of an easy-to-use front direction, which also includes tapes of various widths can take a few seconds to cover the masking the edges with exactly on edge width or on one  desired edge overhang and edge length Adhesive tapes can be made, the liability of the Adhesive tape on the edges is ensured. Hereby a subsequent painting is always clean and a be wall-free so that the rework rate is practical Is zero.

The following description serves to explain the Object according to the invention, of which an execution example is shown in the drawings. It shows:

Fig. 1 a plate Abklebevorrichtung in the side view, in partial section, as well as a abzuklebende furniture,

Fig. 2, the Abklebevorrichtung in the view from below,

Fig. 3, the Abklebevorrichtung according to the invention in front view in an enlarged scale;

Fig. 4, the masking device in the view from behind, in an enlarged view.

A hand-held device designated in ( 1 ) in FIG. 1 in the form of a masking device for the front edges ( 2 ) of a cladding panel, in particular a furniture panel ( 3 ), the surface of which is to be provided with a colored coating or the like, has two side panels ( 4 ), in which handle recesses ( 5 ) are incorporated. The side plates ( 4 ) are detachably connected to one another to form an upper intermediate space ( 6 ) as an adhesive tape roll holder ( 7 ) and a separate lower intermediate space ( 8 ) as an edge guide groove ( 9 ). The edge guide groove ( 9 ) creates the separation of the two gaps ( 6 ) and ( 7 ) and can either be as a separate component with changing groove width (B) ( Fig. 2 to Fig. 4) or as part of a side plate ( 4 ) be formed, against which the second side plate ( 4 ) is then to be screwed (see Fig. 3).

With the Kantenführungsnut (9) Abklebevorrichtung (1) is placed on a front edge (2) of the furniture plate, wherein the edge-guiding the furniture panel edge engages a form-fitting (9). The edge guide groove is open at the end, but continues on one end in front of the area of the hand-held device ( 1 ) in an adhesive tape guide ( 10 ) for an adhesive tape ( 14 ) which can be peeled off from a supply roll ( 13 ). In this area there is also a pressure roller ( 11 ) and a knife-like cutting device ( 12 ) for the adhesive tape ( 14 ).

The interchangeably mounted adhesive tape supply roll ( 13 ) in the upper intermediate space ( 6 ) is selected according to the width of the front edge ( 2 ) of the furniture panel ( 3 ) to be masked, the width of the adhesive tape guide ( 10 ) or the edge guide groove ( 9 ) does justice to this measure.

In the area of the adhesive tape guide ( 10 ) and in continuation of the edge guide groove ( 9 ), the side plates ( 4 ) of the masking device are provided with extended guide cheeks ( 15 ), which define the opening between the upper and lower intermediate space ( 6 ) or ( 7 ). In this breakthrough, the pressure roller ( 11 ) for the adhesive tape ( 14 ) and the cutting device ( 12 ) screwed onto the side plate faces are also interchangeably arranged. To replace the pressure roller ( 11 ) and the supply roll ( 13 ) for the adhesive tape ( 14 ) are used thru axles ( 16 ) connected to the side plates ( 4 ). Furthermore, the edge guide groove ( 9 ) is bevelled on the upper side for the adhesive tape guide ( 10 ) and is in operative connection with a hold-down device ( 17 ) provided for the adhesive tape ( 14 ) in the upper intermediate space. This hold-down device ( 17 ) can also be replaced. The pressure roller ( 11 ) is offset from the bottom of the Kan ten guide groove ( 9 ) and the cutting device ( 12 ) set back compared to the pressure roller ( 11 ) in the handheld device ( 1 ). Figs. 1 to 3 show this arrangement.

For a masking process, the masking device ( 1 ) is preferably placed with its front end (guide cheeks ( 15 )) on the already painted or treated dry edges ( 2 ) of the furniture plate ( 3 ) still to be treated on the front ( 3 ), the pressure roller ( 11 ) with the interposition of the adhesive tape ( 14 ) on the edge ( 2 ). The adhesive tape ( 14 ) is thereby glued to the edge surface. The handheld device is then placed completely on the front edge ( 2 ), this edge being immersed in the guide groove ( 9 ). The double arrow (PH) marks this sequence of movements. When the handheld device ( 1 ) rests on the front edge ( 2 ) of the furniture plate ( 3 ), a wedge-shaped gap (S) between the grooves due to the edge guide groove ( 9 ) and the front edge ( 2 ) of the furniture plate ( 3 ). This gap (S) on the pressure roller ( 11 ) has its greatest distance and begins at the right end of the edge guide groove ( 9 ) of the hand-held device ( 1 ). The distance is created by the offset of the pressure roller ( 11 ) opposite the bottom of the edge guide groove ( 9 ) and ensures that the adhesive tape ( 14 ) when moving the handheld device in the direction of the arrow (PW) when unwinding on the edge ( 2 ) is pressed and is also liable here. Because the width (B) of the edge guide groove ( 9 ) in the device ( 1 ) is adapted to the width of the furniture edge to be masked, the device can be guided cleanly over the edges and corners of the furniture panel ( 3 ), which also carried adhesive tape ( 14 ) is aligned exactly. If all edges ( 2 ) are taped, the device is raised at the rear until the adhesive tape ( 14 ) comes in front of the cutting device ( 12 ) and the separation can take place. The furniture panel ( 3 ) can then be varnished and the adhesive tape ( 14 ) removed later by hand. By broadening the adhesive tape guide ( 10 ) compared to the edge guide groove width (see Fig. 3), it is possible to mask a part of the front of the furniture panel exactly in the area of the front edges if such a measure z. B. is desirable to achieve optically enlarged front edges. For this purpose, the exchangeable pressure roller ( 11 ) should also be wider than the width (B) of the edge guide groove ( 9 ). After painting the furniture panel ( 3 ), the adhesive tape ( 14 ) must be removed again by hand in this case.
