Definitions

  • the invention relates to an ink fountain for offset or high-pressure machines with an ink metering device which consists of a large number of metering means which are arranged closely next to one another, are zone-wide and can be adjusted to zonal different ink gap thicknesses, and have support areas which are constantly or directly applied to the ink fountain roller under spring pressure.
  • the DD-PPS 120 833 which has a metering device consisting of metering tongues arranged next to one another in the longitudinal direction of the ink fountain roller, should first be mentioned as prior art.
  • the metering areas are arranged in the direction of rotation of the ink fountain roller in addition to the support webs remaining due to the milled portions on the front parts of the zone tongues and forming the support area, color-free stripes on the ink fountain roller cannot be avoided.
  • each zone-wide metering element in the axial direction of the ink fountain roller has side by side support and metering areas.
  • This known device has a number of advantages, for example the independent, resilient support of each individual metering element on the ink fountain roller enables the ink film thickness of adjacent zones to be controlled without influencing one another. Fluctuations in the ink film thickness due to the ink fountain roller running out of alignment are also completely eliminated.
  • the known device thus offers the basis for a reproducible, sensitive, zone-by-zone determination of the color gap.
  • the support and metering areas are arranged next to each other here too, color-free stripes on the ink fountain roller cannot be avoided.
  • the object of the invention is to prevent the formation of color-free stripes on the ink fountain roller due to the constant contact of the support areas while maintaining all the advantages of a device according to DE-AS 26 48 098.
  • the invention is that between the support areas, even with different positions of the individual dosing means, the same or approximately the same flow cross-section are provided, that the support areas, seen in the direction of rotation of the ink fountain roller, are provided with wiping edges and form the dosing area proper, the dosing area of which is arranged extends over the full zone width and which are arranged behind the support areas at such a distance that the color can spread axially there and be distributed evenly over the entire zone width.
  • the ink under dynamic pressure can spread out in the axial direction of the ink fountain roller, as a result of which the color-free strips produced by the support areas are refilled with paint. There is thus no need for additional rubbing in order to eliminate any harmful influence which the color-free strips may have on the inking of the printing plate.
  • the ink metering device 6 is located at the lower end of the pressure bars 5. It essentially consists of the metering elements 7, which are arranged axially parallel to the ink fountain roller 4, close together.
  • the pressure bars 5 and the metering elements 7 are covered by an elastic film 8 which is attached to the pressure bars 5 in the upper region of the ink fountain 1.
  • the printing ink 9 is located in the wedge-shaped space between the elastic film 8, the side walls 3 of the ink fountain 1 and the ink fountain roller 4.
  • Each zone-wide printing strip 5 is supported on a compression spring 10 provided in the base plate 2 of the ink fountain 1.
  • the screws mentioned above give each pressure bar 5 so much freedom in the vertical direction that the Dosing elements 7 with the interposition of the elastic film 8 are constantly pressed against the lateral surface 11 of the ink fountain roller 4.
  • Each metering element 7 is adjustable about its longitudinal axis via an adjusting arm 12, a link 13, an adjusting nut 14 and a zone adjusting screw 15 which is rotatably arranged in the ink fountain 1.
  • the adjustment range includes the O position, in which no color is let through in the respective zone - this position is shown in FIG. 1 - and all other settings up to the maximum ink layer thickness.
  • the metering element 7 is, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 in particular, cylindrical, but has a flattening or eccentric turning on part of its circumference, the so-called flow-through groove 16. However, this does not extend over the entire length of the metering element 7, but leave two ring shoulders at both ends, the so-called support areas 17.
  • a secant recess 18 is provided in the cylindrical metering element 7, in which a metering knife 19 extending over the entire length of the metering element 7 is provided is.
  • the scraper edge 20 of this metering knife 19 represents the metering area and rises at least up to a plane with the part of the support areas 17 which rises highest above the flow-through groove 16.
  • the metering element 7 also has a bore 21 into which the actuating arm 12 projects.
  • the elastic film 8 not only covers all the pressure bars 5, but, as mentioned, also the metering elements 7 as far as beyond the scraper edge 20 of the metering knives 19.
  • a cover plate 22 is provided on the ink fountain 1. Its upper, free end 23, which is angled toward the metering elements 7, is still covered by the elastic film 8.
  • the associated metering element 7 is adjusted about its longitudinal axis in such a way that the gap between the scraper edge 20 of the zone-wide metering knife 19 and the lateral surface 11 of the ink fountain roller 4 is changed.
  • the elastic film adapts to the setting of the metering knife 19, i.e., due to the hydrodynamic pressure of the ink 9, it lies constantly on the scraper edge 20 of the metering knife 19. The position of the metering knife 19 thus determines the colored strip dykes in this zone.
  • the metering knife 19 is provided so far from the contact point 24 of the support areas 17 that the space is large enough to deflect the elastic film due to the dynamic pressure, so that the paint 9 flows in the axial direction into the area in which the support areas 17 pass their constant system produce a color-free streak on the jacket 11 of the ink fountain roller 4. Despite the constant indirect contact of the support areas 17 on the ink fountain roller 4, a zone-wide, continuous ink layer thickness is thus generated due to the offset arrangement of the zone-wide metering knives 19.
  • FIG. 4 differs from the one described above primarily only in that the metering elements 7 of the ink metering device 6 have been given a flat-shaped design.
  • Fig. 5 shows a cross section through such a flat piece.
  • the metering elements 7 are used here as a slide.
  • the zone adjusting screw 15 projects into a threaded bore 25 of the metering element 7 and, when it is rotated, causes a tangential adjustment of the metering element 7 relative to the ink fountain roller 4.
  • a leaf spring 26 fastened in the ink fountain 1 presses the associated metering element 7 continuously in the direction of the ink fountain roller 4
  • the metering element 7 is supported here via rib-shaped support areas 17 with the interposition of the elastic film 8 on the lateral surface 11 of the ink fountain roller 4.
  • a zone-wide metering knife 19 is attached to the front end wall 27 of each metering element 7 designed as a flat piece. Its wiping edge 20 projects beyond the support areas 17. The height of the wiping edge 20 must be such that in the O position of the metering element 7 the wiping edge 20 and the support areas 17 simultaneously abut the lateral surface 11 of the ink fountain roller 4. In this embodiment, too, all the metering elements 7 are covered by the elastic film 8 beyond the metering knives 19. Scraper edge 20 and support areas 17 thus never lie directly on the lateral surface 11.
  • the gap between the wiping edge 20 including the overlying film 8 and the lateral surface 11 of the ink fountain roller 4 is changed in the respective zone.
  • the support areas are always indirectly in contact with the lateral surface 11 of the ink fountain roller 4, the ink-free strips produced thereby cannot have a disadvantageous effect, because in the space between the support areas 17 and the wiping edge 20, the ink 9 under back pressure is the ink-free area generated by the support areas 17 replenishes.
  • Zone width and pressure bars 5 which are under pressure from a spring 10 are provided here on the base plate 2 of the ink fountain 1, exactly as in the embodiment according to FIG. 1. At their front end, however, these pressure bars 5 have support areas 17, via which they are supported with the interposition of the film 8 on the lateral surface 11 of the ink fountain roller 4.
  • a cylindrical rotary valve 30 is rotatably mounted about its longitudinal axis. It also runs coaxially with the ink fountain roller 4.
  • the rotary valve 30 consists of a cylinder which has exactly the length of the zone width and is eccentrically turned over a certain circumferential range. In its concentric area, it is supported in a slide bearing 31 of the pressure bar 5.
  • the eccentrically turned off portion 32 can be juxtaposed with the ink fountain roller 4 by adjusting means. The eccentricity of this turned surface causes a gap of different size to be formed over the entire zone width depending on the setting between the elastic film 8 covering the pressure bar 5 and the rotary valve 30 and the lateral surface 11 of the ink fountain roller 4.
  • a flattening could also be used as the metering surface.
  • Each zone-wide rotary valve 30 can be rotated about its longitudinal axis via an adjusting arm 12, a link 13, an adjusting nut 14 and a zone adjusting screw 15.
  • the zone adjusting screw 15 can be actuated not only via the handwheel 33, but also via the servomotor 34 for remote adjustment.
  • the respective position of the zone screw 15 and thus the angular position of the rotary valve 30 are reported by the potentiometer 35 actuated by the zone setting screw 15 to a display, control or regulating device, not shown.
  • Fig. 7 shows an ink fountain 1 with an ink fountain roller 4 immersed in the ink 9 and an ink metering device 6 provided above the ink fountain 1.
  • the latter consists of a series of metering elements 7 arranged over the length of the ink fountain 1, which are designed as doctor-wide doctor blades.
  • a traverse 36 running parallel to the ink fountain roller 4 adjusting nuts 37 are rotatably mounted for each zone, into each of which a threaded bolt 38 projects, the free end of which is connected to a sliding claw 39 in which the doctor-shaped metering element 7 is fastened.
  • a leaf spring 40 provided in the crossmember 36 rests on the underside of the doctor-shaped metering element 7 and presses it in the direction of the lateral surface 11 of the ink fountain roller 4.
  • the front end of the metering element 7 is provided with a scraper edge 20 and also has an end face, as in particular 8 shows two support arms 41 on which support rollers 42 are rotatably mounted. These support rollers 42 run on the lateral surface 11 of the ink fountain roller 4.
  • the respective position of the doctor-shaped metering element 7 in the vertical direction determines the distance of the stripping edge 20 from the lateral surface 11 of the ink fountain roller 4. In the lower position shown in solid lines, the stripping edge 20 lies against the lateral surface 11 and thus does not allow any color to pass.
  • the support rollers 41 nevertheless still have contact with the lateral surface 11 of the ink fountain roller 4, since the leaf spring 40 moves the metering element 7 in the direction of the ink fountain roller 4 presses.
  • the support rollers 42 are in front of the stripping edge 20, the color-free stripes produced by them can be refilled with paint from the stripping edge 20.
  • the dosing elements 7 are provided outside the ink fountain 1 and above the mirror of the ink 9, they do not need to be covered by a film 8. All zone-wide metering elements 7 are arranged directly next to one another, next to one another. A completely independent, streak-free adjustment of the color film of each zone is thereby ensured.
  • each zone-wide doctor-shaped metering element 7 can be supported directly on support surface 41 on the lateral surface 11 of the ink fountain roller 4. The support rollers 42 are then unnecessary.
  • each metering element 7 is applied to the ink fountain roller 4 on its own, ie independently of the others.
  • a distance of approximately 4 mm must be provided between the support point 24 and the scraper edge 20 in order to ensure adequate filling of the color-free strips. But it is quite conceivable that this distance can be reduced by special design of the support areas 17.
  • Another possible modification of the invention is that the rotary valve 30 in the embodiment according to FIG. 6 is replaced by other valve designs.
