Definitions
- This invention relates to a structure for supporting a doctor blade used for permitting a raw material to be satisfactorily accumulated on a paper making roll and water to be satisfactorily fed to the roll and removing foreign matters adhered to a surface of the roll such as paper powders, pitch, tailings or the like from the roll to keep it clean, and more particularly to a doctor blade supporting structure adapted to permit a pressure distributed at an edge of the blade pressedly contacted with the roll to be adjusted so as to be substantially uniform.

- a relatively thin sheet material such as metal, plastic or the like into any desired thickness depending upon applications thereof.
- this causes the blade to be pivotally moved with respect to the roll, resulting in the contact pressure of the blade being apt to be varied.
- a structure as shown in Fig. 7 is proposed and used, wherein a blade (G) is vertically interposed between a blade holder (F) made of a relatively rigid plate material and support members (C) and the blade holder (F) keeps the blade (G) at a posture.
- the support members (C) each are held directly on a doctor bag (E) using a screw means or pivotally supported on a pivot rod (D).

- this needs a considerable amount of labor.
- a width of the blade holder (F) is finished by machining, however, a thickness of a blank for the blade holder (F) and its length are used as those of the holder (F) without being subject to finishing by machining, resulting in failing to form a contact end between the blade holder (F) and the blade (G) with high accuracy.
- the present situation is to escape an error occurring at the contact end utilizing crook of the blade holder (F); however, in order to accomplish the purpose, it is required to reduce a degree of crook of the blade holder (F) when the doctor blade supporting structure is directed to applications wherein the blade (G) is abutted against the roll at a high pressure, resulting in a relief being lost.

- each of the finely adjusting screws (10) causes a tip end of the blade (1) to be lowered and pressedly abutted against the roll, whereas loosening of the screw causes pressing force of the blade (1) against the roll to be reduced; thus, adjustment of the pressing force is highly facilitated to satisfactorily increase holding force and stability of the blade, to thereby permit the blade to be uniformly pressed against the roll at a constant linear pressure.
- the above-described construction permits the crook of the blade holder in a direction of a thickness thereof to be reinforced, so that the blade holder (2) itself may be formed into a reduced thickness as compared with the prior art.

Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to a structure for supporting a doctor blade used for permitting a raw material to be satisfactorily accumulated on a paper making roll and water to be satisfactorily fed to the roll and removing foreign matters adhered to a surface of the roll such as paper powders, pitch, tailings or the like from the roll to keep it clean, and more particularly to a doctor blade supporting structure adapted to permit a pressure distributed at an edge of the blade pressedly contacted with the roll to be adjusted so as to be substantially uniform.
- A conventional doctor blade supporting structure which has been known in the art includes an adjusting means which acts to permit a blade for peeling off dusts adhered to a surface of a roll from the roll to be contacted at a tip end thereof with the roll surface at a uniform linear pressure or a contact pressure of the blade uniformly distributed in an axial direction of the roll.
- In general, a blade for a doctor blade supporting structure is required to exhibit satisfactory holding force, stability and flexibility; therefore, the blade for the conventional doctor blade supporting structure is generally made of a relatively thin sheet material such as metal, plastic or the like into any desired thickness depending upon applications thereof. Unfortunately, this causes the blade to be pivotally moved with respect to the roll, resulting in the contact pressure of the blade being apt to be varied. In view of such a problem, a structure as shown in Fig. 7 is proposed and used, wherein a blade (G) is vertically interposed between a blade holder (F) made of a relatively rigid plate material and support members (C) and the blade holder (F) keeps the blade (G) at a posture. The support members (C) each are held directly on a doctor bag (E) using a screw means or pivotally supported on a pivot rod (D). Then, the blade (G) is vertically moved through a pressurized air tube (A) and an open tube (B) each interposedly arranged between the doctor bag (E) and the support member (C) to adjust a position of the blade (G).
- The blade holder (F) comprises a single plate member formed into a shape of continuously extending in an axial direction of a roll, to thereby prevent a contact pressure of the blade (G) with respect to the roll from being varied in use. However, in order that the contact pressure of the blade (G) can be uniformly distributed in the axial direction of the roll, it is necessary to uniformly adjust contact between a surface of the roll and the blade (G). Unfortunately, this needs a considerable amount of labor. Further, a width of the blade holder (F) is finished by machining, however, a thickness of a blank for the blade holder (F) and its length are used as those of the holder (F) without being subject to finishing by machining, resulting in failing to form a contact end between the blade holder (F) and the blade (G) with high accuracy.
- It would be considered that the accuracy of the contact end is increased by various processing techniques. However, this requires a considerable amount of labor and time and many processing machines, leading to a significant increase in manufacturing costs.
- In view of the foregoing, the present situation is to escape an error occurring at the contact end utilizing crook of the blade holder (F); however, in order to accomplish the purpose, it is required to reduce a degree of crook of the blade holder (F) when the doctor blade supporting structure is directed to applications wherein the blade (G) is abutted against the roll at a high pressure, resulting in a relief being lost. This requires to further increase the accuracy of the contact end, so that it is highly difficult to press the blade against the roll at a constant linear pressure.
- In accordance with the present invention, a doctor blade supporting structure is provided which comprises a blade (1) abutted against a roll (R), a blade holder (2) and support members (4), wherein the blade is mounted on the support members through the blade holder by means of mounting screws (3). The structure is characterized in that a reinforcing plate (5) is arranged in a manner to be superposed on the blades holder (2); and finely adjusting screws (10) are arranged so as to permit a gap to be defined between the blade holder (2) and the reinforcing plate (5) or support members (4) so that the blade holder (2) may be approachable or accessible to the blade (1) through a free end (5₁) of the reinforcing plate (5) defined on the side of the blade. Such construction of the present invention permits the structure to effectively absorb strain of each of the roll (R) and blade (1) occurring during operation of the structure while contacting the blade (1) with the roll (R), so that a linear pressure of the blade with respect to the roll (R) may be automatically corrected so as to be uniform over a whole width of the blade.
- In particular, the structure of the present invention is so constructed that the blade holder (2) is pressedly fixed by the reinforcing plate (5) on which the blade holder (2) is mounted by means of the mounting screws (3) and the finely adjusting screws (10) are arranged so as to permit the gap to be defined between the blade holder (2) and the reinforcing plate (5) or support members (4) so as to render the blade holder (2) approachable or accessible to the blade (1) through the free end (5₁) of the reinforcing plate (5) positioned on the side of the blade. Thus, tightening of each of the finely adjusting screws (10) causes a tip end of the blade (1) to be lowered and pressedly abutted against the roll, whereas loosening of the screw causes pressing force of the blade (1) against the roll to be reduced; thus, adjustment of the pressing force is highly facilitated to satisfactorily increase holding force and stability of the blade, to thereby permit the blade to be uniformly pressed against the roll at a constant linear pressure. Also, the above-described construction permits the crook of the blade holder in a direction of a thickness thereof to be reinforced, so that the blade holder (2) itself may be formed into a reduced thickness as compared with the prior art. This results in distortion and bending of the blade in a longitudinal direction thereof permitting the blade to exhibit improved response performance or characteristics.
- Accordingly, the present invention keeps the blade (1) at a satisfactory posture while eliminating a necessity of subjecting the reinforcing plate (5) to fine processing and permits the blade holder (2) to prevent the contact pressure of the blade 11) from being varied because the blade (1) is uniformly abutted against a surface of the roll. Also, the present invention permits the contact pressure of the blade with respect to the surface of the roll to be uniformly distributed in an axial direction of the roll and also permits the reinforcing plate (5) to be formed into a reduced thickness.

- Fig. 7 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view showing a conventional doctor blade supporting structure.
- Figs. 1 to 2 illustrate an embodiment of a doctor blade supporting structure according to the present invention. A doctor blade supporting structure of the illustrated embodiment includes a
blade 1 adapted to be abutted against a roll R, which blade is mounted onsupport members 4 by means of mountingscrews 3 provided for assembling ablade holder 2. The doctor blade supporting structure also includes a reinforcingplate 5 arranged in a manner to be laminated or superposed on theblade holder 2. Further, the structure includes finely adjustingscrews 10 each of which acts to permit a gap to be defined between theblade holder 2 and thereinforcing plate 5 or each of thesupport members 4 so that theblade holder 2 may be moved through afree end 5₁ of the reinforcingplate 5 defined on the side of theblade 1 so as to be approachable or accessible to theblade 1. Theblade 1 is firmly held on thesupport members 4. - The reinforcing
plate 5, as shown in Fig. 2, comprises a plurality of rectangular plate elements arranged on theblade holder 2 in a manner to be spaced at intervals. It is preferable that the plate elements of the reinforcingplate 5 are separately fixedly held on thesupport members 4 by means of themounting screws 3, respectively. Such arrangement effectively prevents distortion and bending actions of theblade 1 in a longitudinal direction thereof from being deteriorated, to thereby substantially improve responsibility of the blade in the longitudinal direction. In particular, when theblade 1 is pivotally arranged through asupport shaft 8 and held on thesupport members 4 each mounted throughair tubes 6 on adoctor bag 7, it is preferable that the plate elements of thereinforcing plate 5 formed into the same width as thesupport members 4 are fixed together with theblade holder 2 by means of themounting screws 3. - The finely adjusting
screws 10 are threadedly arranged in threadedholes 9 formed through the reinforcingplate 5 in a manner to be movable in an axial direction thereof in theholes 9 and then inserted into through-holes formed via theblade holder 2 so as to be abutted against thesupport members 4, so that threaded insertion of the finely adjustingscrews 10 through the reinforcingplate 5 permits the other end of each of the plate elements of thereinforcing plate 5 to be approachable or accessible to theblade holder 2 to form a gap therebetween. - In another embodiment of the present invention shown in Fig. 3, finely adjusting
screws 10 inserted in through-holes formed via ablade holder 2 each are tapped with respect to asupport member 4 and abutted at a head portion thereof against a lower surface of a reinforcingplate 5. Also, thereinforcing plate 5 is formed withholes 10₁ each of which permits a hexagon wrench to operatively engage therethrough with the head portion of the finely adjustingscrew 10 to vertically move it, to thereby cause the other end of the reinforcingplate 5 to be vertically moved to define a gap between the reinforcingplate 5 and theblade holder 2, so that a posture of contact of ablade 1 with respect to a roll R may be adjusted. - At least one of the
mounting screws 3 may be kept somewhat loosened when the adjustment is carried out, to thereby facilitate operation for the adjustment. Alternatively, in each of the embodiments described above, the plate elements of thereinforcing plate 5 each may be formed with ahole 11 for receiving the mounting screw therein as shown in Figs. 1 and 3. - In the embodiment of the present invention shown in Fig. 3, the
reinforcing plate 5, as shown in Fig. 4, comprises a single plate member of a pectinate or rugged shape so that afree end 5₁ of the reinforcing plate may be provided with a plurality of projections. Such construction of the reinforcingplate 5 facilitates assembling, mounting and handling of the reinforcingplate 5. - In a still further embodiment of the present invention shown in Fig. 5, between a
support member 4 and a portion of ablade holder 2 overlapped with a reinforcingplate 5 and positioned around amounting screw 3 arranged on the side of ablade 1 is formed agap 12, so that threaded insertion of themounting screw 3 into thesupport member 4 permits the reinforcingplate 5 andblade holder 2 to be moved together, to thereby vertically adjustably move an end of ablade 1 which is contacted with a roll R. Thus, it will be noted that themounting screws 3 each function also as a finely adjusting screw. - In still another embodiment of the present invention shown in Fig. 6,
air tubes blade 1 and a portion of theblade 1 held onsupport members 4. Also, theair tubes 6 are arranged opposite to each other in a V-like or Y-like manner about an intersection between a line C₂ extending from the edge of theblade 1 at an angle ϑ of 6 to 30 degrees and preferably 10 to 15 degrees below the extension line C₁ and a vertical line C₃. Such construction permits a contact angle of the blade with respect to a roll R to be increased, to thereby decrease a variation of the contact angle due to wearing of theblade 1, resulting in facilitating adjustment of a contact pressure of the blade with respect to the roll R and removal of any tailings from the roll R. Also, such construction permits theblade 1 to be uniformly pressed against the roll R. - The present invention is so constructed that the reinforcing plate is arranged in a manner to be superposed on the blade holder and the finely adjusting screws each are arranged so as to permit a gap to be defined between the blade holder and the reinforcing plate or support member, resulting in the blade holder being approachable or accessible to the blade through the free end of the reinforcing plate defined on the side of the blade. Such construction provides a relief for fine adjustment without requiring to form the contact end of the blade holder with high accuracy. Also, it permits crook of the blade holder to be reduced during pressing of the blade against the roll, to thereby keep the blade at a natural posture. Further, it permits the blade to be significantly reinforced against the crook of the blade holder while exhibiting a function of pressing the roll at a predetermined line pressure, so that the blade holder may be formed into a reduced thickness as compared with the prior art. This results in distortion and bending of the blade in a longitudinal direction thereof allowing the blade to exhibit a more satisfactory function. In addition, crook of the blade holder in a radial direction of the roll can be reduced to substantially improve response performance or characteristics of the blade in the longitudinal direction and a doctor line pressure can be rendered uniform over a whole width of the roll, so that the doctor blade supporting structure of the present invention is widely and readily applicable to existing apparatus while ensuring positive operation of the blade at a low cost and permitting the blade to positively exhibit satisfactory holding force, stability and flexibility. Thus, the present invention can be highly effectively available as a doctor blade supporting structure for a paper making roll.
