Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un procédé pour la perforation de films, plus spécifiquement des films en matière synthétique, tels que tous les types possibles de ce que l'on appelle des films d'étirage, des films haute densité, des films en polyéthylène, en polypropylène, etc.The present invention relates to a method for perforating films, more specifically films of synthetic material, such as all possible types of so-called stretch films, high density films, polyethylene films, polypropylene, etc.
Plus spécifiquement encore, la présente invention concerne un procédé pour pratiquer, de manière efficace et rationnelle, des perforations à dimensions relativement grandes dans des films, par exemple dans le cas de perforations circulaires de l'ordre de 6 à 60 mm.More specifically still, the present invention relates to a method for practicing, in an effective and rational manner, perforations with relatively large dimensions in films, for example in the case of circular perforations of the order of 6 to 60 mm.
La présente invention concerne également un dispositif qui met en oeuvre le procédé précité, ainsi que des films que l'on obtient avec un tel procédé, respectivement un tel dispositif.The present invention also relates to a device which implements the aforementioned method, as well as films which are obtained with such a method, respectively such a device.
On ne connait jusqu'à présent aucun procédé, respectivement aucun dispositif pour pratiquer des perforations relativement grandes dans des matières en film.Until now, no method or device has been known, respectively, for producing relatively large perforations in film materials.
On connaît, il est vrai, déjà des procédés et/ou des dispositifs pour l'application de perforations relativement petites dans des matières en film, en d'autres termes des perforations ayant un diamètre maximal de 6 mm.It is known, it is true, already methods and / or devices for the application of relatively small perforations in film materials, in other words perforations having a maximum diameter of 6 mm.
Un premier dispositif connu pour l'application de petites perforations de ce type dans des matières en film est constitué par une matrice à travers laquelle défile le film, et par lequel le défilement de ce film à travers la matrice a lieu en pas-à-pas, en d'autres termes par lequel, lors de l'application d'une série de perforations, on doit constamment arrêter la matière en film.A first known device for the application of small perforations of this type in film materials is constituted by a matrix through which the film runs, and by which the running of this film through the matrix takes place in a stepwise fashion. not, in other words by which, when applying a series of perforations, the film material must be constantly stopped.
Ce dispositif connu ne peut être mis en oeuvre de manière efficace de quelque manière que ce soit pour l'application dans des matières en film de perforations à dimensions relativement grandes, étant donné qu'il travaille très lentement de par la nature même de la tâche, d'une part, et que l'évacuation des petits disques découpés est difficile, voire impossible, surtout lorsque la matière en film est très mince, étant donné qu'alors, ces petits disques restent souvent accrochés à la matière en film, que ce soit par le tait qu'elle n'a pas été complètement percée, ou encore par la présence de la charge électrique statique dans la matière par laquelle les petits disques détachés continuent d'adhérer.This known device cannot be used effectively in any way for the application of relatively large-sized perforations in film materials, since it works very slowly by the very nature of the task. on the one hand, and that the evacuation of the small cut discs is difficult or even impossible, especially when the film material is very thin, since then these small discs often remain attached to the film material, that it is either by tait that it has not been completely pierced, or by the presence of the static electric charge in the material by which the small detached disks continue to adhere.
Dans un deuxième dispositif connu, on utilise, pour pratiquer les perforations, des billes que l'on propulse avec force à travers un tuyau creux sur lequel on place des films à perforer.In a second known device, beads are used to make the perforations, which are forcefully propelled through a hollow pipe on which films to be perforated are placed.
Ce deuxième dispositif connu présente tous les inconvénients liés au premier dispositif connu mentionnés ci-dessus.This second known device has all the drawbacks associated with the first known device mentioned above.
Dans un troisième dispositif connu, pour pratiquer des perforations à petit diamètre dans une matière en film, on utilise des aiguilles qui perforent la matière en film.In a third known device, to make small diameter perforations in a film material, needles are used which perforate the film material.
Outre les inconvénients mentionnés ci-avant, liés aux deux dispositifs connus cités en premier lieu, ce troisième dispositif présente l'inconvénient supplémentaire que les perforations sont seulement formées par les aiguilles qui traversent la matière, si bien que l'on n'obtient pas de véritables ouvertures.In addition to the drawbacks mentioned above, linked to the two known devices mentioned first, this third device has the additional drawback that the perforations are only formed by the needles which pass through the material, so that one does not obtain real openings.
Il est clair que la matière que l'on obtient par l'application de petites perforations avec un des dispositifs connus précédemment ne jouit que d'une application limitée, par exemple uniquement comme films pour l'agriculture, en d'autres termes des films pour recouvrir de grandes surfaces.It is clear that the material obtained by the application of small perforations with one of the previously known devices enjoys only limited application, for example only as films for agriculture, in other words films to cover large areas.
En revanche, la présente Invention a pour objet une matière en film munie de grandes perforations, qui peut être réalisée de manière très simple et rapide et qui est destinée principalement à devenir une matière d'emballage pour des fleurs, des plantes, des légumes, des fruits, des aliments, en général par exemple des aliments qui doivent être congelés, en d'autres termes des produits à propos desquels on doit obtenir un emballage efficace qui permet, en même temps, une aération très efficace et importante des produits.On the other hand, the subject of the present invention is a film material provided with large perforations, which can be produced in a very simple and rapid manner and which is intended mainly to become a packaging material for flowers, plants, vegetables, fruit, food, in general for example food which must be frozen, in other words products from which an efficient packaging must be obtained which allows, at the same time, a very effective and important ventilation of the products.
Conformément à la présente invention, on propose un procédé et un dispositif qui permettent de munir de perforations relativement grandes toutes les matières d'emballage possibles, jusqu'à et y compris une matière en film extrêmement mince qui possède bien entendu une très grande élasticité, ainsi que ce que l'on appelle des films rétractables, ce qui était impossible avec les procédés et les dispositifs connus jusqu'à présent.In accordance with the present invention, a method and a device are proposed which make it possible to provide relatively large perforations with all possible packaging materials, up to and including an extremely thin film material which of course has a very high elasticity, as well as so-called shrink films, which was impossible with the methods and devices known so far.
Le procédé selon l'invention, qui présente les avantages mentionnés ainsi que d'autres, est constitué principalement par le fait de pratiquer des séries successives de perforations au moyen de manchons réchauffés; de saisir les petits disques découpés; et d'éloigner de cette manière ces petits disques à l'écart du film, faisant en sorte qu'ils sont découpés.The method according to the invention, which has the advantages mentioned as well as others, consists mainly of the fact of practicing successive series of perforations by means of heated sleeves; to grab the small cut discs; and keep these little discs away from the film in this way, making sure they are cut.
Un dispositif avantageux, qui met en oeuvre le procédé selon l'invention, se caractérise en ce qu'il est formé principalement par deux cylindres tournant l'un contre l'autre, dont l'un est muni de moyens pour découper par réchauffement des petits disques hors du film, tandis que le second cylindre est muni de moyens qui peuvent saisir les petits disques découpés.An advantageous device, which implements the method according to the invention, is characterized in that it is formed mainly by two cylinders rotating one against the other, one of which is provided with means for cutting by heating small discs outside the film, while the second cylinder is provided with means which can grasp the small cut discs.
Dans le but de mieux faire ressortir les caractéristiques de l'invention, ci-après, on décrit, à titre d'exemple, sans aucun caractère limitatif, une forme de réalisation préférée en se référant aux dessins annexés dans lesquels:
- la figure 1 est une représentation schématique d'un dispositif qui met en oeuvre le procédé conformément à l'invention;
- la figure 2 est une vue en perspective selon la flèche F2 en figure 1;
- la figure 3 est une coupe transversale a plus grande échelle, prise le long de la ligne III-III de la figure 2;
- la figure 4 est une coupe transversale prise le long de la ligne IV-IV de la figure 3.
- Figure 1 is a schematic representation of a device which implements the method according to the invention;
- Figure 2 is a perspective view along arrow F2 in Figure 1;
- Figure 3 is an enlarged cross section taken along the line III-III of Figure 2;
- Figure 4 is a cross section taken along line IV-IV of Figure 3.
En figure 1, on représente schématiquement un dispositif pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé selon l'invention, par lequel les éléments principaux de ce dispositif sont formés par un rouleau d'alimentation 1 sur lequel est disposée la matière de film 2 à traiter, un cylindre de freinage 3 pour tendre la matière de film 2, des rouleaux 4-5 coopérant mutuellement pour pratiquer dans la matière de film 2 des perforations relativement grandes, respectivement, pour éloigner de la matière de film 2 les petits disques découpés, par lequel la matière de film 2 défile autour du rouleau 5 et enfin, un rouleau d'entraînement 6 pour la matière de film 2, qui a pour tâche de maintenir cette dernière tendue en coopération avec le cylindre de freinage 3 en attendant que la matière de film perforée soit enroulée sur un rouleau d'alimentation 7.FIG. 1 schematically represents a device for implementing the method according to the invention, by which the main elements of this device are formed by a feed roller 1 on which the
Bien entendu, les différents cylindres sont entraînés chacun de manière appropriée pour faire en sorte que les différents cylindres travaillent de manière synchrone.Of course, the different cylinders are each driven appropriately to ensure that the different cylinders work synchronously.
Le cylindre 4 est constitué, conformément à l'invention, principalement par un manchon 8 à paroi épaisse dans lequel sont pratiqués plusieurs trous 9 qui sont arrangés conformément à une configuration bien définie, par exemple dans le cas présent, selon des rangées parallèles, les trous 9 étant placés en zigzag.The
A travers chaque trou 9 formé de cette manière, est placé un manchon 10 dont le diamètre est inférieur au diamètre du trou 9 de telle sorte qu'il n'y ait pas de contact entre ce manchon 10 et le trou 9.Through each
De préférence, les manchons 10 sont réalisés en cuivre et sont fixés par exemple par soudage sur une latte 11, par exemple également en cuivre, dans laquelle est installée une résistance électrique 12 qui, de manière appropriée, par exemple par des conduits électriques 13-14, est raccordée à un circuit électrique.Preferably, the
Sur chaque latte 11, est appliquée une bande de matière isolante 15 dans laquelle on a évidé des trous pour les manchons 10 de telle sorte que, lorsque les lattes 11 sont fixées au moyen de vis appropriées 16 avec l'écrou de serrage 17 contre la paroi interne du tube 8, il ne se forme aucun contact thermique entre les lattes 11 et le cylindre 4.On each
Le cylindre 5 selon l'invention est également formé par un tube 18 à paroi épaisse dans lequel sont pratiqués des trous 19 dont le diamètre est de préférence égal au diamètre des trous 9 pratiqués dans le tube 8 et par lequel ces trous 19 sont pratiqués dans le tube 18, conformément à la même configuration que la configuration des trous 9 dans le tube 8.The
A travers chaque trou 19 dans le tube 18, on prévoit une douille 20 dont l'extrémité libre coïncide avec la périphérie du tube 18 et par lequel les douilles d'une seule et même rangée sont fixées à un canal commun 21 qui peut être formé par un tube approprié dont le passage 22 se trouve en liaison avec les passages 23 pratiqués dans les douilles correspondantes 20.Through each
Ce canal 21 donne, à une extrémité du cylindre 5, sur un passage 24 pratiqué dans la bride 25 du cylindre 5, dans laquelle sont également logées les extrémités des tubes 21.This
Les autres extrémités des tubes 21 sont logées d'une manière identique dans une bride 26, ces brides 25 et 26 étant fixées avec le tube 18 au moyen de vis ou analogues, non représentées.The other ends of the
Il en va d'ailleurs de même pour le cylindre 4 qui est muni, à chacune de ses extrémités, de brides 27-28.The same goes for the
Contre la bride 25 du cylindre 5, est encore appliquée une bride fixe 29 dans laquelle sont pratiquées deux encoches circulaires 30 et 31.Against the
Les encoches circulaires susmentionnées 30 et 31 s'étendent en formant un angle de 90° et sont placées diamétralement l'une par rapport à l'autre, l'encoche d'aspiration 30 étant disposée au-dessus.The aforementioned
La mise en oeuvre du dispositif tel que décrit ci-dessus est très simple et a lieu comme suit.The implementation of the device as described above is very simple and takes place as follows.
La matière de film 2 qui, par la coopération des cylindres 3 et 6, est placée de manière tendue a travers le dispositif, défile entre les cylindres 4 et 5 où le premier vient se mettre en contact avec une rangée définie de manchons 10 qui sont réchauffés a une température appropriée de telle sorte qu'ils puissent pénétrer à travers la matière de film 2.The
Au cours de ce mouvement, une rangée correspondante de douilles 20 est venue se disposer contre l'encoche 30 par l'intermédiaire de laquelle le cylindre 5 est raccordé a une pompe à vide ou analogues, de telle sorte que, lorsque les douilles correspondantes 20 viennent se mettre contre la matière de film, les petits disques 32 libérés au moyen des manchons correspondants 10 sont aspirés contre les douilles 20.During this movement, a corresponding row of
Au cours du déplacement des cylindres 4 et 5, les manchons 10 vont traverser le film 2 à la manière d'un couteau réchauffé; après quoi, ces manchons 10 viennent se disposer dans les trous 19 pratiqués dans le tube 18 du cylindre 5 et, de cette manière, le film 2, plus spécifiquement les petits disques 32 viennent se mettre en contact avec les douilles 20.During the displacement of the
Au cours de la rotation ultérieure des cylindres 4 et 5, les manchons 10 vont à nouveau quitter les trous 19, faisant en sorte que les petits disques 32 sont éloignés du film 2 avec une grande sécurité par le fait que ces petits disques 32 restent fixés aux douilles 20 pendant un temps assez long.During the subsequent rotation of the
Lorsque le cylindre 5 poursuit encore sa rotation, le passage 24 pratiqué dans la bride 25 va passer devant l'encoche 30, si bien que l'aspiration des petits disques 32 disparait et que ces derniers, dès ce moment, peuvent tomber librement vers le bas dans un bac de récolte non représenté.When the
Au cas où ces petits disques resteraient collés malgré tout contre les douilles 20 en question, on prévoit l'encoche 31 via laquelle on achemine de l'air sous pression le long du passage 24 pour aboutir dans les douilles en question 20, les petits disques 32 étant ainsi écartés par soufflage avec une grande sécurité.In the event that these small discs remain stuck despite everything against the
Il est clair que, de cette manière, on procure un dispositif par lequel il devient possible de pratiquer des perforations relativement grandes dans une matière de film très mince, indépendamment des caractéristiques spécifiques de cette dernière, avec la certitude absolue que ces perforations sont arrangées de manière correcte et que les petits disques écartés par poussée sont éloignés du film 2 avec une grande sécurité.It is clear that, in this way, a device is provided by which it becomes possible to make relatively large perforations in a very thin film material, independently of the specific characteristics of the latter, with the absolute certainty that these perforations are arranged from in a correct manner and that the small discs pushed apart are moved away from the
Il est également évident que l'on peut modifier la grandeur des perforations en choisissant d'autres cylindres 4, respectivement 5, dont les manchons 10 présentent la forme et les dimensions de la perforation désirée.It is also obvious that the size of the perforations can be modified by choosing
Le raccordement électrique des résistances 12 et le raccordement des dispositifs pour provoquer une pression inférieure et une pression supérieure ne sont pas représentés dans le dessin, étant donné qu'ils peuvent être réalisés de n'importe quelles manières connues en soi.The electrical connection of the
Le procédé, respectivement le dispositif selon l'invention, ne sont bien entendu pas limité à l'exemple décrit et, dans la mise en oeuvre représentée dans les dessins annexés, mais il recouvre toutes les variantes possibles.The method, respectively the device according to the invention, is of course not limited to the example described and, in the implementation shown in the accompanying drawings, but it covers all possible variants.
