Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement for transferring a film from a carrier film to a substrate, with a housing or frame in which a supply spool and a take-up spool for the carrier film are accommodated, the carrier film via an application element protruding from the housing or frame to press their film soap against the substrate and from this back into the housing or frame on the take-up spool and the application element can be deflected under pressure in the direction of the housing or frame up to a stop.
  • Arrangements for applying a film from a carrier film to a substrate are preferred in the office area, for example for transferring an adhesive film from a carrier film to e.g. Paper, for gluing another paper locally or for gluing a sheet with other sheets or the like, is used, this usually being done in conjunction with hand rollers.
  • hand rollers are quickly stowed away when not in use and can be used immediately in use, without problems with undesired drying of an adhesive liquid or the like. exist.
  • a solid, projecting from one end of the housing in the housing serves as the application element pivotable lever under the action of a spring in a starting position pushed away from the housing, which carries at its end protruding from the housing a very large, integrally formed cylindrical cross bolt with a plastic sleeve which can be rotated relative to it and via which the from the supply spool incoming carrier film is guided and then deflected upwards again for winding onto the take-up spool in the housing.
  • the take-up reel is driven from the supply reel via a gear transmission with a slip clutch.
  • the lever-shaped projecting element from the housing extends within the housing beyond its lever pivot point to the other side and engages there via a corresponding locking member in the teeth of a gear wheel attached to the supply spool, so that the supply spool is twisted in the Starting position (rest position) of the hand roller is not possible.
  • the very large cross bolt at the end of the application element protrudes laterally so much through its lever that if it is pressed against the preload spring, it can spring out in the direction of the housing (upwards) until the protruding part of the Cross pin hits the housing.
  • this known device has the disadvantage that the application radius at the end of the application element is very large, which results in a poorly defined tear line of the film to be dispensed on the substrate (for example a paper sheet) in practical use and also when using the device from the person handling it, it is only possible to determine inaccurately to what point the adhesive film to be transferred is actually already transferred to the substrate.
  • the pivotable mounting of the entire holding lever for the application element and its simultaneous use as a locking arm for the supply reel also has the disadvantage that only from a relatively large, due to the Eintriegelungsweg on the supply reel a release of the supply reel takes place, after which can be applied, but this can lead to difficulties in handling with awkward people. If such a roller is held even slightly tilted, even a slight tilt can not be compensated by the user and the desired film application to the substrate not at all or not be executed properly.
  • the object of the invention is to improve the arrangement mentioned at the outset in such a way that, in the case of handling which is unproblematic even for awkward persons, and with a simplified construction and cheaper manufacture, a tear line of the film transferred to the substrate, which is clearly better defined in use, can be achieved.
  • the application element is designed in the form of an elongated, elastically resilient support foot which is inclined from a base fixed non-rotatably on the housing or frame and which is provided at its free end with a rigid application bar is, which on its side facing the carrier film for pressing the carrier film against the substrate has a rounded pressure edge with a radius of not greater than 1.5 mm and at a distance from this an upper stop area with which it is used to limit the spring travel over a Counter stop on the housing or frame is supported.
  • the rigid application bar attached to the end of the support leg in the invention forms a part which, in contrast to the support foot, is no longer resilient but rather rigid, which is much smaller and less material-consuming than the cylinder bolt in the known device and also offers the possibility of using one its edges as a rounded pressure edge with a radius of no greater than 1.5 mm to press the carrier film with film against the substrate to create a much smaller deflection radius, which is a very precisely defined and easily detectable position of the tear-off edge of the applied film results.
  • the limit stop For the rebound path on the application bar which is only required at the end of the support leg and can therefore be made small, is also the distance from the stop area to the pressure edge and thus the lever arm, via which the contact pressure applied by the user via the application element to the Pressure edge is forwarded, particularly low.
  • the result of this is that even very large contact forces can be transmitted by the user to the pressure edge, since the stresses occurring in the effective cross-section of the transmission element for transmission are much smaller than in the generic device because of the short lever arm.
  • the arrangement according to the invention can also be used, for example, for carrier foils, on which, for example, a correction cover film (cover film) to be transferred onto a paper can be attached, in order to use it to correct, for example, the characters of a typewriter or a printer on a paper for correction purposes cover, which is particularly important here because of the type of typewriter or the like.
  • a correction cover film cover film
  • the generic device cannot be used at all for such an intended use, since the large radius of the cylinder bolt attached to the end of the application element and the otherwise selected overall arrangement make it possible to achieve particularly large local contact pressures at the location where the film is locally from the carrier film is pressed onto the substrate, is not possible.
  • the arrangement according to the invention thus allows very little to be able to train the entire application element, and its suspension around a pivot point fixed to the housing and additionally the attachment of a pretensioning spring can also be dispensed with, so that, finally, with the drive gear and a slip clutch between the supply and also required Overall, the drive coil is not only simplified, but also significantly less expensive Overall structure results, which ultimately also allows the overall device to be made smaller and more delicate than before.
  • the applicator bar is very particularly preferably substantially shorter and essential in cross section formed thicker than the support leg, its length is preferably only a quarter to a third of the length of the support leg and its thickness preferably corresponds to at least 1.25 times the thickness of the support foot. In this way, excellent functionality can be achieved with a virtually optimized total material expenditure.
  • the application bar and the support leg can of course consist of the same material and be made in one piece.
  • the application bar and support leg are particularly preferably made of different materials, so that each of these two elements can also be optimized in terms of its function, also in terms of the material.
  • a further preferred embodiment of the invention also consists in the fact that the application bar can be exchanged, which results in the possibility that the user can also change different application bars themselves for different materials or different purposes.
  • the forceful load on the applicator bar placed on the support foot is aimed exactly in the direction of attachment and, moreover, the band of the carrier film, which usually wraps around the applicator bar, prevents undesirable sliding of the bar, especially if it protects it even a little against unintentional sliding off is, makes impossible.
  • the application bar is very particularly preferably placed on the support foot with frictional engagement, so that an undesired sliding down does not have to be expected even if the carrier tape is omitted.
  • the pressure edge of the application bar is preferably provided with a curvature that is circular in cross section.
  • Another, also very advantageous embodiment of the curvature of the pressure edge also consists in the fact that this has a radius of curvature (seen in the direction of displacement of the carrier film) which reduces, so that with increasing tarnishing of the carrier film against the application bar, an ever greater curvature occurs, here entirely the smallest radius of curvature used is particularly preferably not greater than 1.5 mm.
  • This arrangement provides a particularly favorable option for "ironing" the film tear-off edge onto the substrate if the tear-off should not have taken place directly below the edge, in which case the user, if he ascertains when the hand roller, for example, is pressed and moved for the first time, that no substrate is transferred, only by a small reduction in the angle adjustment over the heel bar creates a second pressure point, seen in the direction of transport of the carrier film, behind the pressure edge, but at which the film to be transferred is present with certainty, whereby "ironing" is guaranteed can be.
  • the stop area on the application bar is preferably provided as a bump-like projection in the center of the application bar, with it being particularly preferably formed in one piece with it. It has proven to be particularly favorable if the stop area is attached in the region of the upper end of the application bar facing away from the carrier film, in particular if the longitudinal extension the overall job bar is only relatively small.
  • the protrusion has a cross section transverse and perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the application element with upwardly converging side surfaces and a rounded tip, with, very particularly preferably, also an inclined upward slope on its front side facing the pressure edge of the application bar Front surface is provided.
  • the upper stop area where it will come to rest with the counter-stop, is rounded or spherical and with a small width, so that even with a slight tilting of the device by the user due to the elastic Resilience of the support foot can already be compensated for by this, a problem-free transfer of the applied pressure force in connection with an integrity contact of the pressure edge against the substrate can also be achieved.
  • the projection is very particularly preferably curved on its upper side facing the counterstop in the shape of a section of a cylinder or a section of a sphere.
  • a very special preferred embodiment of the arrangement according to the invention also consists in forming on the counterstop a counterstop surface appropriately shaped for the abutment of the projection, which leads to particularly favorable results if the surface provided for abutment against the counterstop is not flat, but, as e.g. already mentioned, cylindrical section, spherical section or the like. This creates an optimal possibility of supporting the surfaces against one another because of the maximization of the possible support surface (and thus a minimization of the impact pressures that have to be transmitted).
  • the support foot can be designed in any suitable manner, which ensures that the desired deflection of the support foot can take place with simultaneous correct alignment of the application bar relative to the substrate.
  • a very particularly preferred embodiment of the support foot is to design it in the form of a toggle lever which is bent out to the side is on which the section of the carrier film running between the supply spool and the applicator bar is located, and being, additionally preferably, seen in a plane perpendicular to the pressure edge, which also runs through the foot point of the support foot, in each case from the pressure edge, the foot point of the support foot and the axis of rotation of the supply spool lies on a straight line in this plane, which has the advantage that when the spool is placed the line of action lies on this straight line and a good, independent restoring effect occurs when the pressure is released.
  • the support foot, the application bar and the stop area and the counterstop are very particularly preferably made of plastic.
  • the choice of material can also be made differently depending on the conditions of use.
  • the arrangement according to the invention is suitable, as has already been referred to, for example for use with hand scooters of the type already mentioned.
  • Another, particularly preferred embodiment of the arrangement according to the invention also consists in the fact that it is not installed directly in a hand roller, but rather it Support frame, which holds the application element and receives the supply reel and the take-up reel, is designed as an exchangeable cassette, which in turn can be inserted into the housing of a hand-held device.
  • This configuration has the great advantage that the spool change in the handheld device can then be carried out extremely quickly and requires no insertion of the supply and take-up spool or threading of the tape run, since only the used cassette is removed from the device and a new cassette is inserted.
  • a corresponding opening must also be provided in the hand-held device only at the point at which the application element protrudes from the cassette through which the application element in protrudes from the hand roller in the same way, so that it is immediately ready for use after inserting the new cassette and closing its housing.
  • the drive gear between the supply and take-up spools and the slipping clutch still to be provided are provided within the housing of the hand roller, for example (and not in the exchangeable cassette), so that when the exchangeable cassette is inserted, only a corresponding coupling of the coils contained in the cassette via appropriate openings the pivot pin provided in the housing in connection with the gearbox must be done, such as is also the case when inserting exchangeable cartridges for ribbons in typewriters.
  • an interchangeable cassette is shown, as z. B. in the housing of a suitably designed (not shown in the figures) hand roller.
  • the cassette 1 shown has two side covers 21, 2b, the illustration according to FIG. 1 showing only the one side cover 2a of the cassette 1 facing the viewer, while FIG. 2 shows the cassette according to FIG. 1, but with the side cover 2a removed so that only the other side cover 2b is visible here.
  • the supply spool (dispenser spool) 10 on which a carrier film 5 is wound, which in turn is coated on the outside with a suitable film 5a (cf. representations of FIG. 3), which is, for. B. a suitable adhesive film or a cover layer for application z. B. is on paper.
  • the carrier film 5 coated in this way runs from the supply wound on the supply reel 10 towards the front (in FIGS. 1 and 2: left) end of the cassette 1, at which an application element 4 protruding from the cassette 1 (see FIG 1) is provided.
  • This application element 4 consists of a fixed and non-pivotable in the housing at a base 13, d. H. Support lever 12, which is held clamped and is designed in the form of a toggle lever, its knock-out point 20 being directed towards the carrier film 5 running between take-up reel 10 and application element 4.
  • an application bar 14 is attached to the support leg 12 with a pressure edge 14 'located at its free front end, the carrier film 5 coming from the take-up spool 10 being fed back around this pressure edge 14 and into the cassette 1.
  • a compensating spring 6 in the form of a thin and elastically bendable clamping lever 6, which is also firmly clamped at its base point.
  • the film strand which runs between the tension spring 6 and the take-up reel 11, lies against the top of the film supply still present on the supply reel 10, which is still provided with an adhesive film on the outside thereof, thereby creating an adhesive effect between the carrier film running to the take-up reel 11 5 occurs without adhesive film and the tape supply on the supply reel 10.
  • a stop area in the form of a projection 7, in the direction of the rebound movement protrudes.
  • This stop area 7 is assigned a counter-stop 8 which is fixed to the frame and which is provided in one piece on a connecting web 15 attached to the side plate 2b for connecting the two side plates 2a and 2b of the cassette 1 to one another. Further such connecting webs 15 also protrude from the side plate 2b at some other locations, as can be seen from FIG. 2.
  • You correspondingly are provided on the other side plate 2a small projecting plug-in bolts (not shown in the figure), which are inserted into a central opening in each connecting web 15 to form the overall frame and z. B. can be locked or otherwise attached.
  • a spring lip 16 is also provided in the side plate 2b and engages to form a backstop in a toothed ring (not shown in FIG. 2) which engages on the end face facing the side plate 2b the take-up spool 11 is provided.
  • a transmission gear for driving the take-up reel from the supply reel is attached with a slip clutch between the two.
  • This gearbox has corresponding pivot bolts for the supply reel 10 and the take-up reel 11, which when the cassette 1 is inserted into the hand roller housing (not shown) in the openings 26 and 27 provided on the cassette (corresponding to the interior of the supply reel 10 and Take up reel 11) and then in a suitable manner, for. B. by a corresponding positive connection, drive the coils 10 and 11.

  • the application bar 14 and the support leg 12 can be formed together with the tension spring 6 as a common, one-piece part.
  • the foot point 13 of the support foot 12 is connected to the foot point of the tension spring 6 by a solid part 28 which is suitably rigidly connected to the cassette 1 or the side plate 2b, which can preferably be done by a suitable plug connection. This z. B.
  • a viewing window 3 is provided at a suitable location in the side plate 2a in order to signal the winding condition of the supply reel to the user and to inform him in good time of an end of reel supply.
  • a corresponding opening must also be provided in the housing of the hand roller at the point at which the application element 4 protrudes forward from the cassette.
  • the tear-off edge 29 (see FIG. 3a) of the adhesive film 5a which is present on the carrier film 5 (up to the pressure edge 14'), is pressed against the substrate 17 (see FIGS. 3a to 4d) and so the output contact between adhesive film 5a and substrate 17 is created for the beginning transfer process.
  • the user will automatically exert some pressure on the hand roller, whereby the support foot 12, which is fixed with its base 13 and non-rotatably attached to the side plate 2b of the cassette 1, so far until the stop area 7 comes to rest against the counter stop 8 and thereby ends the rebound movement.
  • FIGS. 3a to 3e show the individual sequences of this process in principle in FIGS. 3a to 3e:
  • Fig. 3a shows the end of the support leg 12 with the application bar 14, the pressure edge 14 ', the upper projection 7 and the counter-stop 8, which at a distance f, the maximum deflection of the pressure edge 14 'sets are still apart.

  • the band 5 is now no longer taut behind the pressure edge 14 ', but somewhat relaxed. If now, which occurs frequently in practice and is shown in Fig. 3b, the tear-off edge 29 of the film 5a does not yet come into direct contact with the substrate 17 at this first mounting position, for example because in the course of the rebound movement, the pressure edge 14 'on the 3c, the so-called "ironing" of the tear-off edge 29 against the substrate 17 can take place, as shown in FIG.
  • FIG. 3d shows an intermediate point in time from this process.
  • the film 5a is continuously released from the carrier film 5 onto the substrate 17 until the desired amount of adhesive has been transferred there.
  • the hand roller is relieved again, which means that the support foot 12 springs out again (not shown in the figures), the stop region 7 is removed from the counter-stop 8 again, and thus the tape guide 5 as a whole is tightened again.

It should be noted that the difference in thickness shown in the basic representations of the figures is not to scale. A thickness T which is at least 1.25 times the thickness t of the support foot 12 is preferably used for the application bar 14.

  • Such an embodiment is particularly suitable, in order to facilitate the "ironing" of the tear-off edge of the film to be transferred, because with this shape for the application bar 14, a particularly significant shift of the pressure point towards the rear (ie counter to it) is achieved by a small reduction in the angle of attack (for example by a slight increase in the contact pressure) the direction of transport of the belt 5) can be achieved.
