Definitions

  • the invention relates to a gluing point arrangement for a new supply roll according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a gluing point arrangement for a new supply roll for the automated connection of a roller conveyor by adhesive strips to an outgoing supply roll, in particular for a rotary printing press, by means of a roll changer without adhesive residues.
  • the front view of a gluing point arrangement according to the invention is shown on a new supply roll 1.
  • the beginning 2 of the new supply roll 1 runs at an angle ⁇ to the central axis 3 of the new supply roll 1.
  • the angle ⁇ can be between 10 and 30 degrees.
  • an adhesive strip 6 is glued, which fixes the beginning of the roll 2 on the second layer 7 of the new supply roll 1 and has on its outside means for connecting to an outgoing web 8, which runs from an ending supply roll 9 .
  • FIG. 3 the enlarged representation of the detail X according to FIG. 2 is shown in the preparation position for a web connection between an outgoing web 8 of a used supply roll 9 and the roll start 2 of a new supply roll 1.
  • the adhesive strip denoted overall by 6, is designed as a double-sided adhesive strip and has on its underside or on the side facing the new supply roll 1 two layers arranged next to one another with different adhesiveness.
  • a tape-shaped adhesive carrier 11 has a strong-acting adhesive layer on its upper side across the entire width, as seen in cross section.
  • the latter strong-acting adhesive layer 16 is connected to the beginning of the roll 2 of the new supply roll 1, in such a way that the front edge of the adhesive layer 16 - in the direction of movement B seen - closes with the front edge 4 of the beginning of the roll 2 or lies immediately behind it.
  • the adhesive-free layer 14 serves to compensate for inaccuracies when applying the adhesive strip 6.
  • the one-time adhesive layer 13 is attached to the top of the second layer 7 of the new supply roll 1.
  • the third layer 18 of the new supply roll 1 is also indicated in FIG. 3.
  • the adhesive strip 6 shown in cross section in FIG. 3 can be manual or mechanical can be applied to the new supply roll 1 using known devices.
  • the new supply roll 1 is by known means, for. B. a circumferential accelerator, not shown, brought to the circumferential speed that corresponds to the speed of the outgoing web.
  • a pressing force acts in the direction of arrow C, e.g. B. from a pressure roller, not shown, so that the outgoing web 8 is pressed against the strong-acting adhesive layer 12 of the adhesive strip.
  • the position of the adhesive strip 6 is shown after tearing open. It can be seen here that the beginning of the roll 2 is already connected to the running or running web 8 and that the underside of the easily removable adhesive layer 13 has come off the top of the second layer 7. The easily removable adhesive layer 13 does not leave any adhesive residues on the surface of the second layer 7 and also no longer adheres itself, so that no adhesive residues remain in the machine. A remainder 19 of the outgoing web 8 is cut off by means of a symbolically illustrated separating knife 21.
  • FIG. 6 shows another embodiment variant in a representation according to FIG. 5 after being torn open. After the outgoing web 8 has been pressed against the strong-acting adhesive layer 12 of the adhesive strip 6 in the direction of arrow C, the web 8 is connected to the beginning of the roll 2 of the new supply roll 1.
  • the adhesive strip 6 has on its underside a cleavable adhesive layer 22, which is detached from the underside of the adhesive strip 6 after the connection process of the two paper webs and remains with a strongly adhesive layer 24 on the second layer 7 of the new supply roll 1. Both the underside 23 of the adhesive strip 6 and the upper side 26 of the removable adhesive layer 22 are free of adhesive residues, so that no adhesive residues can adhere to the rollers or cylinders when the machine is running.
  • the beginning 2 of the roller conveyor of the supply roll 1, which is at an angle ⁇ to the central axis 3, can also have other known forms of adhesive preparation, for example a V-shape, a W-shape or a number of arrows. To shape. Then the amount of the angle also changes.
  • the width of the adhesive strip 12 can be varied and, in particular, enlarged, so that the arrow shafts can be omitted in the case of a previously customary adhesive preparation, for example in the form of an arrow.
  • the layers 13; 16; 22 of the adhesive strips 6, in deviation from the representations in FIGS. 3 to 6, can also be applied and not introduced.
  • the layer of strong adhesive power corresponds to a peeling force of 7.5 Newtons per 25 mm band width of an adhesive strip.
  • the layer of weak or unique adhesive capacity corresponds to a peeling force of 0.6 Newton per 25 mm strip width of an adhesive strip.
