Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for supplying ink for use in a printing press having an ink fountain and a fountain roller, arranging a plurality of ink supply adjusting members side by side without any clearance therebetween longitudinally of the fountain roller to form the bottom of the fountain and provide an ink passage between the fountain roller and each of the adjusting members and controlling each of the adjusting members individually to open and close the ink passage and thereby adjust the amount of ink to be supplied by the surface of the fountain roller individually by each adjusting member.
  • Conventional printing presses include an ink supply adjusting plate providing the bottom of an ink fountain and positioned close to an ink fountain roller. With rotation of the fountain roller, ink is carried out on the roller surface through a clearance (ink passage) between the roller and the adjusting plate, transferred onto an ink kneading roller by a pickup roller and supplied to the printing surface by way of other kneading rollers.
  • the amount of ink to be applied to the printing surface is adjusted by varying the clearance with an adjusting screw and thereby adjusting the thickness of film of ink over the fountain roller.
  • FR-A-2 317 100 discloses an ink supplying apparatus with a fountain roller and an ink fountain.
  • the ink film is formed on a plurality of sections into which the surface of the ink fountain roller is circumferentially divided.
  • the ink film is formed on the whole circumferential surface of the fountain roller. Therefore, the ink on the surface of the fountain roller cannot be transferred to the pickup roller while the pickup roller is in contact with kneading roller. Consequently it is not possible to transfer all the ink coming out on the surface of the fountain roller to the kneading roller. Further, it is not possible to adjust the amount of ink supplied to the kneading roller accurately.
  • An ink supplying apparatus known from the EP-A-0 182 291 has an ink passage between an duct roller and ductor blade. This ink passage is always open. The amount of ink is adjusted by adjusting opening of the ink passage.
  • the main object of the present invention is to provide a method for supplying ink for use in printing presses wherein the supply of ink can be adjusted easily and accurately from position to position widthwise of the printing surface so as to reduce the time and the quantity of test paper needed for preparation before printing.
  • the present invention is characterized in that while the fountain roller makes one revolution, the ink passage provided by each adjusting member is opened and closed only once, and the angle through which the fountain roller rotates while the passage is open is controlled, whereby the amount of ink to be supplied by the surface of the fountain roller is adjusted. While the fountain roller makes one revolution, the passage of ink supply adjusting members is opened an closed only once. Because of this, a continous ink film is formed at only one portion of the whole circumferential surface of the fountain roller. Therefore as long as the range of the ink film formed on the surface of the fountain roller is set at a suitable value less than a half of the whole circumferential surface of the fountain roller.
  • the present invention can adjust the amount of ink very accurately by using the opening and closing mechanisme without high responsiveness.
  • the period of time during which the ink passage is open is controlled directly or indirectly by adjusting each of the adjusting members individually, whereby the amount of ink can be adjusted easily and accurately at each of different positions along the length of the fountain roller, i.e. along the width of the printing surface. Consequently, the amount of ink is controllable numerically, reducing the time and the quantity of test paper required for preparation before printing and leading to economy, hence economical.
  • Fig. 1 generally shows the mechanical construction of an ink supplying apparatus provided at an upper portion of the frame 10 of a printing press
  • Figs. 2 to 6 show the components of the apparatus in detail.
  • the right-hand side of Figs. 1 and 2 is referred to as "front” and the left-hand side thereof as “rear,” and the right- and left-hand sides of Fig. 4 as “right” and “left,” respectively.
  • a fountain roller 12 is rotatably supported at its right and left ends by right and left side walls 11 of the frame 10.
  • the fountain roller 12 is rotated by unillustrated suitable drive means in the direction of arrow shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
  • the speed of rotation of the roller 12 is variable in proportion to the printing speed of the press when the printing speed is altered.
  • An ink kneading roller 13 is rotatably supported at its opposite ends by the opposed frame side plates 11 for the roller 12.
  • An arm 14 is rotatably mounted at its base end on each end of the kneading roller 13.
  • An ink transfer roller 15 is rotatably supported at its opposite ends on the free ends of the arms 14 and is in contact with the kneading roller 13.
  • a stopper 17 in the form of a screw extending generally in the rear-to-front direction and adjustable in position is attached to a block 16 fixed to the opposed side plates 11.
  • a pneumatic cylinder 18 is connected between each arm 14 and the side plate 11 adjacent thereto. During printing operation, the rod 18a of the cylinder 18 extends rearward, pressing the arm 14 against the stopper 17 and holding the transfer roller 15 in an operative position where the roller 15 is located close to the lower front portion of the fountain roller 12 with a very small clearance, for example, of about 0.02 to about 0.03 mm formed therebetween.
  • the rod 18a of the pneumatic cylinder 18 is retracted forward, moving the arm 14 forward away from the stopper 17 and bringing the transfer roller 15 to a work position at a large distance forwardly away from the fountain roller 12.
  • the kneading roller 13 is rotated by unillustrated suitable drive means in the direction of arrow shown in Fig. 1, whereby the transfer roller 15 is rotated in the direction of arrow shown in the same drawing.
  • an ink fountain base 19 is provided between the opposed side plates 11.
  • the fountain base 19, which is generally rectangular in cross section, is integrally formed at each of its right and left ends with a bracket 20 extending downward.
  • Each bracket 20 fixedly has a pivot 21 extending laterally outward therefrom into a hole 22 formed in the side plate 11.
  • the fountain base 19 is shiftable to an operative position wherein it is forwardly downwardly inclined with its front end located close to the fountain roller 12 as seen in Fig. 2, or to a work position where it is rearwardly away from the fountain roller 12, as rotated counterclockwise in Fig. 2 from the operative position.
  • the base 19 can be locked in its operative position by unillustrated suitable means, such as a pin.
  • a plurality of, e.g. eighteen, blades (ink supply adjusting members) 23 providing the bottom of an ink fountain are arranged side by side without any clearance therebetween longitudinally of the fountain roller 12 (i.e. in the lateral or sidewise direction), as will be described below.
  • the blade 23 is in the form of a relatively thick plate which is rectangular when seen from above. All the blades 23 have the same width.
  • a blade fulcrum member 24 is fixed to the upper side of the fountain base 19 at its rear end.
  • the lateral length of the fulcrum member 24 is equal to the combined width of the 18 blades 23 but is slightly smaller than the lateral width of the fountain base 19.
  • the fulcrum member 24 is integrally formed with a fulcrum portion 24a projecting forward from the front upper part of the member 24.
  • the fulcrum portion 24a is integrally formed on its lower side with a fulcrum ridge 25 V-shaped in cross section and extending laterally over the entire length thereof.
  • the thickness of the blade 23 is smaller than the distance between the upper surface 19a of the base 19 and the lower surface of the fulcrum portion 24a.
  • the blade 23 is formed in the upper surface of its rear end with a V groove 26 extending laterally over the entire width thereof.
  • the ridge 25 of the fulcrum member 24 is fitted in the V groove 26 of each blade 23.
  • the front end of the blade 23 has a large bevel (chamfer) 23a except an upper end face having a vertical width for example of about 1 mm.
  • Each side of the blade 23 also has a large bevel (chamfer) 23c except an upper contact face 23b having a vertical width for example of about 1 mm.
  • the blades 23 are arranged with the opposed contact faces 23b in intimate contact with each other.
  • the base 19 has a vertical bore 27 extending therethrough and opposed to the widthwise midportion of each blade 23.
  • the bore 27 has an internally threaded lower portion in which an adjusting screw 28 is screwed from below.
  • a blade holding ball 29, for example in the form of a steel ball, is movably fitted in the upper portion of the bore 27.
  • a coiled compression spring 30 is provided between the ball 29 and the adjusting screw 28.
  • the spring 30 exerts a suitable force as adjusted by the screw 28 on the holding ball 29, pressing the ball 29 against the rear end lower surface of the blade 23 and thereby pressing the V-grooved bottom portion of the blade 23 against the top of the ridge 25 on the fulcrum member 24, whereby the front portion of the blade 23 is made rotatable upward or downward about the top of the ridge 25.
  • a spring attaching screw 32 is screwed in the lower surface of each blade 23 at a lengthwise intermediate portion thereof in the middle of the width thereof.
  • the lower portion of the screw 32 is loosely fitted in the upper portion of a vertical bore 33 extending through the fountain base 19.
  • the bore 33 has an internally threaded lower portion having an adjusting screw 34 screwed therein and locked by a lock nut 35.
  • a coiled tension spring 36 accommodated in the bore 33 has its opposite ends attached to the upper end of the screw 34 and the lower end of the attaching screw 32.
  • a threaded bore 37 vertically extends through the base 19 under the widthwise midportion of each blade 23 to the rear of the spring attaching screw 32.
  • a stopper 38 in the form of a threaded rod is screwed in the bore 37 and locked by a lock nut 39.
  • the stopper 38 has at its upper end a spherical portion 38a slightly projecting upward beyond the upper surface of the fountain base 19.
  • the coiled tension spring 36 biases the blade 23 in a direction (i.e., opening direction) in which the front portion thereof rotates downward, whereby the blade 23 is held rotated to an opened position where the lower surface thereof is in bearing contact with the spherical portion 38a of the stopper 38.
  • the ink passage 31 is opened to form a clearance, for example, of about 0.2 to about 0.3 mm between the fountain roller 12 and the front end of the blade 23.
  • the stoppers 38 are adjustable axially thereof in position in accordance with the printing condition, whereby all the ink passages 31 are adjustable in the opening degree.
  • the fountain base 19 has a stepped front portion 19b recessed from its upper surface and formed with a circular cavity 40 which is positioned under the widthwise midportion of each blade 23.
  • the bottom of the cavity 40 is centrally formed with a bore 41 extending through the base 19.
  • a blade pushing rod 42 is inserted through the bore 41.
  • a bush 43 is fitted in the lower end of the bore 41, and an O-ring 44 in an upper portion of the bore.
  • the pushing rod 42 is slidable upward or downward by being guided by these members.
  • the pushing rod 42 has an externally threaded lower end portion projecting downward beyond the lower surface of the base 19.
  • a stopper nut 45 is screwed on the threaded portion and secured by a lock nut 46.
  • the upper end of the pushing rod 42 projecting upward beyond the cavity 40 is integrally formed with a semispherical portion 42a having a slightly larger outside diameter than the other portion.
  • the pushing rod 42 has an externally threaded portion having two diaphragm mounting nuts 47, 48 screwed thereon.
  • a circular rubber diaphragm 49 fitted around the pushing rod 42 has its inner peripheral portion clamped between these nuts 47, 48.
  • a diaphragm holding plate 51 formed with 18 holes 50 having the same diameter as the cavities 40 is fastened to the stepped portion 19b of the fountain base 19. The outer peripheral portion of each diaphragm 49 is clamped between the plate 51 and the stepped portion 19b.
  • the upper surface of the holding plate 51 is flush with, or slightly lower than, the upper surface 19a of the fountain base 19, with the semispherical portion 42a of the pushing rod 42 slightly projecting upward beyond the upper surface 19a of the fountain base 19.
  • a pneumatic solenoid valve 52 positioned immediately to the rear of each bore 41 is secured to the lower surface of the base 19.
  • the fountain base 19 is formed with an air channel 53 holding the valve 52 in communication with the corresponding cavity 40 at its bottom.
  • Each valve 52 is selectively brought into an opened state for holding the cavity 40 in communication with the atmosphere or into a closed state for supplying compressed air to the cavity 40 through the channel 53.
  • the blade 23 is held in its opened position by the action of the tension spring 36 as already mentioned.
  • the valve 52 is closed, supplying air to the cavity 40, the diaphragm 49 is pneumatically deformed upward to move the pushing rod 42 upward until the stopper nut 45 comes into contact with the lower surface of the fountain base 19. Consequently, the semispherical portion 42a of the pushing rod 42 comes into contact with the lower surface of the blade 23, rotating the front portion thereof upward (i.e. in a closing direction) and bringing the blade 23 to a closing position wherein the front end of the balde 23 is lightly in contact with the fountain roller 12 to close the ink passage 31.
  • the ink fountain has opposed end plates 54 which are secured at their lower portions to the upper surface of the fountain base 19 at its right and left sides.
  • the upper edge of each end plate 54 horizontally extends from above the fulcrum member 24 to a position slightly above the fountain roller 12.
  • the front portion of the end plate 54 has a generally semicircular cutout so that the front edge of the plate 54 extends along the outer periphery of the fountain roller 12 at the rear side thereof slightly inwardly of the periphery.
  • the opposed end plates 54 are in intimate contact with the respective end faces of the fulcrum member 24, the contact faces 23b of both end blades 23 and the respective end faces of the fountain roller 12 at the rear outer peripheral portions thereof.
  • the fountain roller 12, the blades 23 and the opposed end plates 54 define a space serving as the ink fountain.
  • a thin highly stretchable rubber sheet 55 is provided beneath the 18 blades 23 and is affixed to the lower surfaces, front bevels 23a and opposite side bevels 23c of all the blades 23 as by adhesion or some suitable means.
  • the right and left side portions of the rubber sheet 55 are secured to the end plates 54.
  • the rubber sheet 55 is locally cut away in a suitable form where it is opposed to the holding balls 29, the stoppers 28 and the pushing rods 42 so that these members directly contact the lower surfaces of the blades 23.
  • the rubber sheet 55 is also cut away in a suitable form where the spring attaching screws 32 are provided.
  • a dustproof rubber cover 56 is secured to the front end face of the fountain base 19.
  • the upper portion of the cover 56 is away from the base 19 and lightly in contact with the portion of the rubber sheet 55 covering the front bevels 23a of the blades 23 so as to be elastically deformable when the blades 23 rotate upward or downward without interfering with this movement.
  • a dustproof cover 57 extending over the rear portions of the blades 23 is secured to the fulcrum member 24.
  • a dustproof cover 58 is fastened to the lower side of the fountain base 19 for covering the stoppers 38, the adjusting screws 34, the valves 52 and the pushing rods 42 from from below.
  • each of the valves 52 when opened or closed, brings the corresponding blade 23 to the opening position or closing position as described above.
  • the valves 52 are individually controlled, the ink passage 31 provided by the blades 23 are individually opened or closed.
  • each blade 23 rotates about the top of the ridge 25 and is therefore rotatable with greatly reduced resistance.
  • the ink passage 31 can be given an accurately uniform degree of opening over the entire width of the blade 23.
  • the diaphragm 49 moves the pushing rod 42, which in turn opens or closes the blade 23. This renders the blade 23 movable with very high responsiveness. This feature and the reduced resistance involved in the rotation of the blade 23 make the blade 23 controllable delicately.
  • the blade 23 has a suitable thickness, therefore possesses high rigidity and opens the ink passage 31 to an accurately adjusted degree.
  • Each blade 23 is chamfered at its opposite side lower corners to provide bevels 23c to make the adjacent blades 23 contact each other only at the contact faces 23b of diminished vertical width. Accordingly, the blades can be held more intimate contact with each other easily by forming the contact faces 23b more accurately. This makes it possible to almost completely obviate the leakage of ink from the joint between the blades 23. Even if the ink leaks from the joint, the underlying base 19 will not be exposed to the ink owing to the presence of the rubber sheet 55.
  • One blade 23 is rotatable upward or downward relative to another blade adjacent thereto without any trouble because the rubber sheet 55 is stretchable.
  • the fountain roller 12 rotates in the direction of arrow shown in Fig. 2, whereby the ink within the fountain is brought out through the open ink passages 31 as carried on the surface of the roller 12.
  • the film of ink coming out on the fountain roller 12 over each blade 23 is uniform in width and thickness. More specifically, the ink film has a width equal to the width of the blade 23 and a thickness approximately equal to the opening degree of the ink passage 31, i.e., about 0.2 to about 0.3 mm. Accordingly, the amount of ink coming out of one blade portion over the exposed surface of the fountain roller 12 is in proportion to the length of the ink film circumferentially of the fountain roller 12.
  • the amount of ink of each strip to be brought out on the exposed surface of the fountain roller 12 is adjustable.
  • the amount of ink can then be made uniform over the entire length of the fountain roller 12 by making all the strips of ink film equal in circumferential length. It is also possible to vary the amount of ink from position to position along the length of the roller 12, i.e. from strip to strip, by varying the circumferential length of ink film from strip to strip. Further because the adjacent blades 23 are openable independently of each other, the amount of ink of each strip can be accurately adjusted.
  • the circumferential length of ink film formed on the surface of the roller 12 is in proportion to the angle subtended by the ink film at the center of the roller 12.
  • the central angle of the ink film is equal to the angle through which the fountain roller 12 rotates while the ink passage 31 is open. Consequently, the circumferential length of the ink film, that is, the amount of ink, is adjustable by controlling the rotational angle.
  • the angle through which the roller 12 rotates while the ink passage 31 is open can be controlled by the following method.
  • the ink-passage 31 is opened once while the fountain roller 12 makes one revolution, and the angle through which the fountain roller 12 rotates while the ink passage 31 is open is controlled relative to the entire circumference of the roller 12, i.e., 360 degrees.
  • the ink film provided by each blade 23 is formed at only one portion of the fountain roller 12 over the entire circumference thereof.
  • the ink brought out of the ink passage 31 as opened onto the exposed surface of the fountain roller 12 is transferred to the surface of the transfer roller 15 in its operative position.
  • the clearance between the fountain roller 12 and the transfer roller 15 is smaller than the thickness of the ink film, while at the position where the two rollers are close to each other, the surfaces of the rollers move in opposite directions, with the result that the ink on the surface of the fountain roller 12 is removed therefrom by the surface of the transfer roller 15 as if by scraping off. Accordingly, a major portion of the ink is effectively transferred from the surface of the roller 12 to the surface of the transfer roller 15.
  • the surfaces of the two rollers may move in the same directions at the position where the two rollers are closely located.
  • the ink transferred to the surface of the transfer roller 15 is then transferred to the surface of the kneading roller 13 and thereafter transferred onto a printing plate via the unillustrated ink kneading rollers and an inking roller.
  • the transfer roller 15 is always in its operative position where the roller 15 is spaced from the fountain roller 12 by a clearance smaller than the thickness of the ink film. This eliminates the drawback of the prior art that the thickness of the ink on the printing plate increases or decreases periodically as will be described below.
  • the conventional printing press includes an ink pickup roller mounted on pivotal arms and disposed between the fountain roller and the first ink kneading roller.
  • the pivotal movement of the arms brings the pickup roller to a position where it is in contact with the fountain roller but is out of contact with the kneading roller, or alternatively to a position where it is in contact with the kneading roller but is out of contact with the fountain roller.
  • the pickup roller is in contact with the fountain roller, the ink is transferred from the fountain roller to the pickup roller, while when the pickup roller is in contact with the kneading roller, the ink is transferred from the pickup roller to the kneading roller.
  • the thickness of the ink transferred onto the surface of the kneading roller repeatedly increases and decreases in synchronism with the ink pickup period, i.e., the period of pivotal movement of the arms.
  • the transfer roller 15 is always in its operative position where the roller 15 is spaced apart from the fountain roller 12 by a clearance smaller than the thickness of the ink film, so that the ink on the exposed surface of the fountainer roller 12 is continuously transferred to the transfer roller 15 and then continuously transferred to the kneading roller 13. Unlike the prior art, therefore, this obviates the likelihood that the thickness of the ink film transferred onto the kneading roller 13 and the printing plate will vary periodically.
  • Fig. 7 schematically shows the electrical construction of the ink supplying apparatus.
  • the supply of ink is controlled by opening each ink passage 31 once while the fountain roller 12 makes one revolution.
  • a circumferentially local one surface portion of the fountain roller 12 is usually made to serve as an ink film forming section, and the ink film is formed only in this section.
  • the surface of the fountain roller 12 is circumferentially divided into three equal sections (each 120 degrees in central angle), and one of these sections is used as the ink film forming section.
  • the rotary encoder 62 in Fig. 7 is adapted to produce 300 pulses per revolution of the fountain roller 12, and the voltage frequency dividing counter 63 is replaced by one which produces a count-up signal upon counting up 300 pulses. Integers of 0 to 100 are set as ink amount set values in the computer 61.
  • the amount of ink is set in terms of percentage relative to the amount of ink for forming an ink film over the entire film forming section which is taken as 100.
  • the counter 63 and the present counters 60 are then reset to zero every time the fountain roller 12 makes one revolution to open the ink passages 31.
  • the ink passage 31 concerned Upon the count value of a certain preset counter 60 reaching the preset value, the ink passage 31 concerned is closed. Consequently, each ink passage 31 is opened only once during one revolution of the fountain roller 12 to form an ink film in the amount of set value only at the ink film forming section.
  • each ink passage 31 is opened only once during one revolution of the fountain roller 12
  • the mechanism for opening the ink passages 31 need not be of very high responsiveness.
  • Fig. 8 shows an exemplary mechanism for opening the ink passages 31 which is less expensive and lower in responsiveness than the foregoing embodiment. Throughout Figs. 2 and 8, like parts are referred to by like reference numerals.
  • a circular cavity 70 positioned under the widthwise midportion of each blade 23 is formed in the upper surface of the fountain base 19 at the front portion thereof.
  • a blade pushing rod 71 is integrally formed at its upper end with a piston 72, which is fitted in the cavity 70 upwardly or downwardly slidably, with an O-ring provided around the piston.
  • the piston 72 is integral with a spherical top portion 72a bearing against the lower surface of the blade 23.
  • the second embodiment is the same as the first.
