Description

La présente invention concerne d'une manière générale les machines à imprimer du genre comportant, à la manière d'une presse à dorer, un cliché dont le motif, en relief, correspond à celui de l'impression recherchée, et qui est monté mobile par rapport à un support porte-objet, pour l'application à l'objet à imprimer d'une feuille propre à l'impression recherchée.The present invention relates generally printing machines of the kind comprising, in the manner of a gilding press, a snapshot whose motif, in relief, corresponds to that of the desired impression, and which is mounted movable by relative to an object holder, for application to the object to print from a sheet suitable for the desired printing.

Elle vise plus particulièrement, mais non nécessairement exclusivement, le cas où l'objet à imprimer est plat.More specifically, it does not necessarily exclusively, the case where the object to be printed is dish.

Pour l'impression recherchée, il faut, d'une part, que le cliché soit chauffé, et, d'autre part, que la pression de contact suivant laquelle il applique une feuille à l'objet à imprimer soit suffisante.For the desired impression, it is necessary, on the one hand, that the plate is heated, and, on the other hand, that the pressure of contact according to which he applies a sheet to the object to print is sufficient.

Si le cliché est plat, il est relativement aisé à chauffer, en l'adossant à une semelle chauffante.If the shot is flat, it is relatively easy to warm up, by backing it with a heating soleplate.

Mais, comme il intervient simultanément sur toute la surface de l'objet à imprimer, il faut, conjointement, pour une pression de contact donnée, que la force à lui appliquer soit importante.But, as it operates simultaneously over the entire surface of the object to be printed, it is necessary, jointly, for a given contact pressure, let the force to be applied to it be important.

Au-delà d'une certaine surface, cette force devient prohibitive.Beyond a certain surface, this force becomes prohibitive.

Pour diminuer cette force à pression de contact donnée, il a été proposé d'enrouler le cliché au contact d'un cylindre monté rotatif par rapport au support porte-objet, de manière à ce que, se faisant suivant une génératrice, son intervention sur l'objet à imprimer soit à tout instant limitée à une droite de celui-ci.To decrease this force at contact pressure given, it has been proposed to roll the photograph in contact with a cylinder rotatably mounted relative to the object support, so that, following a generator, its intervention on the object to be printed is limited at all times to a right of it.

Mais, dans ce cas, il est nécessaire d'assurer conjointement un déplacement relatif du cylindre portant le cliché et du support porte-objet, pour que toute la surface de l'objet à imprimer soit successivement balayée par la génératrice de contact correspondante.But, in this case, it is necessary to ensure jointly a relative displacement of the cylinder carrying the plate and the object holder, so that the entire surface of the object to be printed is successively scanned by the corresponding contact generator.

Le chauffage du cliché s'avère corollairement malaisé.Heating the plate turns out to be difficult.

Il impose le plus souvent l'établissement d'une cloche chauffante autour du cylindre, au prix de complications constructives relativement onéreuses, et au risque d'un grippage des paliers du cylindre. It most often requires the establishment of a bell heating around the cylinder, at the cost of complications relatively expensive and at the risk of seizure of the cylinder bearings.

La présente invention a d'une manière générale pour objet une disposition permettant de surmonter de manière relativement simple ces difficultés.The present invention generally has for object a provision to overcome in a way relatively simple these difficulties.

Suivant cette disposition, le cliché est cintré au contact d'un bloc de support monté basculant, à la manière d'un tampon buvard, sur une tête d'application, cette tête d'application étant elle-même montée mobile par rapport au support porte-objet, transversalement par rapport à celui-ci, pour l'exercice de la force nécessaire à la pression de contact recherchée, des moyens de guidage cintrés intervenant, pour le montage basculant recherché, entre le bloc de support du cliché et la tête d'application.According to this arrangement, the picture is bent at contact of a tilting mounted support block, like a blotting pad, on an application head, this head of application being itself mounted movable relative to the object holder, transversely with respect thereto, for the exercise of the force necessary for the contact pressure wanted, intervening curved guide means, for mounting tilting sought, between the support block of the plate and the application head.

Cette disposition conduit avantageusement à une réalisation mécanique relativement simple, tout en se satisfaisant, pour le chauffage du cliché, d'une semelle chauffante plane, et donc elle-même relativement simple.This arrangement advantageously leads to a relatively simple mechanical production, while satisfactory, for heating the plate, a sole planar heater, and therefore itself relatively simple.

Les caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention ressortiront d'ailleurs de la description qui va suivre, à titre d'exemple, en référence aux dessins schématiques annexés sur lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'une machine à imprimer suivant l'invention ;
  • la figure 2 en est une vue en coupe longitudinale, suivant la ligne II-II de la figure 1.
    • The characteristics and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the description which follows, by way of example, with reference to the appended schematic drawings in which:
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of a printing machine according to the invention;
  • FIG. 2 is a view in longitudinal section thereof, along the line II-II of FIG. 1.

    • Tel qu'illustré sur ces figures, la machine à imprimer 10 suivant l'invention comporte, globalement, à la manière d'une presse à dorer, et de façon connue en soi, un cliché 11 monté mobile par rapport à un support porte-objet 12, pour l'application, à un objet 13 à imprimer, d'une feuille 14 propre à l'impression recherchée.As illustrated in these figures, the printing machine 10 according to the invention comprises, overall, in the manner of a gilding press, and in a manner known per se, a photograph 11 mounted movable relative to an object holder 12, for applying, to an object 13 to be printed, a sheet 14 specific to the desired impression.

    Suivant l'invention, le cliché 11 est cintré au contact d'un bloc de support 15 qui, suivant des dispositions décrites plus en détail ultérieurement, est monté basculant sur une tête d'application 16, à la manière d'un tampon buvard, et cette tête d'application 16 est elle-même montée mobile par rapport au support porte-objet 12, transversalement par rapport à celui-ci, suivant la double flèche droite F1 des figures 1 et 2. According to the invention, the plate 11 is bent at contact of a support block 15 which, according to arrangements described in more detail later, is pivotally mounted on an application head 16, in the manner of a blotting pad, and this application head 16 is itself movably mounted by relative to the object holder 12, transversely to to this one, following the right double arrow F1 of Figures 1 and 2.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, l'objet 13 à imprimer est un objet plat, le support porte-objet 12 est donc lui-même plan, et le cliché 11 est en deux parties convenablement solidarisées l'une à l'autre, par exemple par collage, à savoir, une partie externe 11A, qui est par exemple en matière synthétique, et qui forme, en relief, le motif à imprimer, et une partie interne 11B, qui est par exemple en métal, et par laquelle l'ensemble est rapporté, par des vis 17, sur le bloc de support 15.In the embodiment shown, the object 13 to be printed is a flat object, the object holder 12 is so plan itself, and snapshot 11 is in two parts suitably secured to each other, for example by bonding, namely, an external part 11A, which is for example made of synthetic material, which forms, in relief, the pattern print, and an internal part 11B, which is for example in metal, and by which the assembly is attached, by screws 17, on the support block 15.

    La surface 18 de ce bloc de support 15 au contact de laquelle le cliché 11 est cintré est en pratique une surface cylindrique de section circulaire dont les génératrices sont parallèles au support porte-objet 12.The surface 18 of this support block 15 in contact with which the plate 11 is bent is in practice a surface cylindrical of circular section whose generatrices are parallel to the object holder 12.

    Bien entendu, le cliché 11 peut être initialement plan, pour n'être cintré qu'au moment de sa mise en place sur le bloc de support 15.Of course, the picture 11 can be initially plan, to be bent only at the time of its installation on the support block 15.

    En variante, il peut être dès l'origine en forme, au profil de la surface 18 du bloc de support 15.As a variant, it can be shaped from the start, profile of the surface 18 of the support block 15.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, le bloc de support 15 comporte une semelle chauffante 20, et il est en pratique en deux parties convenablement solidarisées l'une à l'autre, par exemple par un montage 21 du type à queue d'aronde, comme représenté, à savoir, une partie amovible 22, qui porte le cliché 11, et qui forme donc la surface 18, et une partie fixe, qui, au dos de la partie amovible 22, forme la semelle chauffante 20.In the embodiment shown, the block support 15 has a heating sole 20, and it is in practice in two parts suitably secured one to the other, for example by an assembly 21 of the tail type dovetail, as shown, namely, a removable part 22, which carries the plate 11, and which therefore forms the surface 18, and a fixed part, which, on the back of the removable part 22, forms the heated sole 20.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, cette semelle chauffante 20 est plane.In the embodiment shown, this heated sole 20 is flat.

    Sur la figure 2, on a schématisé en 23 les résistances chauffantes dont elle est équipée transversalement de place en place.In FIG. 2, the resistances have been diagrammed at 23 with which it is fitted transversely from place to square.

    Entre le bloc de support 15 et la tête d'application 16 interviennent des moyens de guidage 24 propres au montage basculant recherché.Between the support block 15 and the application head 16 intervene guide means 24 specific to the assembly tilting sought.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, ces moyens de guidage 24 comportent, d'une part, sur la tête d'application 16, deux flasques 25 parallèles, entre lesquels se débat le bloc de support 15, et dont chacun présente, à distance l'une de l'autre, deux lumières 26 cintrées, et, d'autre part, montés rotatifs sur une platine 27 dont est solidaire ce bloc de support 15, deux paires de galets 28 dont chacun est en prise avec une lumière 26 des flasques 25.In the embodiment shown, these means guide 24 comprise, on the one hand, on the application head 16, two parallel flanges 25, between which the support block 15, and each of which has, remotely one on the other, two curved lights 26, and, on the other hand, mounted rotating on a plate 27 to which this block of support 15, two pairs of rollers 28 each of which is engaged with a light 26 of the flanges 25.

    A leur partie supérieure, les flasques 25 sont entretoisés par une traverse 30.At their upper part, the flanges 25 are braced by a cross member 30.

    Les deux lumières 26 que présente chacun d'eux sont disposées dos à dos, avec une concavité tournée du côté opposé au support porte-objet 12.The two lights 26 that each presents are arranged back to back, with a concavity turned to the opposite side to the object holder 12.

    Ces deux lumières 26 vont ainsi en convergeant globalement l'une vers l'autre, d'une extrémité inférieure 26A, pour laquelle elles sont relativement éloignées l'une de l'autre, et relativement proches du support porte-objet 12, à une extrémité supérieure 26B, pour laquelle, au contraire, elles sont relativement proches l'une de l'autre, et relativement éloignées du support porte-objet 12.These two lights 26 thus converge generally towards each other, from a lower end 26A, for which they are relatively distant one of the other, and relatively close to the object holder 12, at an upper end 26B, for which, on the contrary, they are relatively close to each other, and relatively distant from the object holder 12.

    Les lumières 26, qui sont symétriques l'une de l'autre par rapport à un plan médian perpendiculaire à la fois au support porte-objet 12 et aux flasques 25, peuvent être établies empiriquement, point par point.Lights 26, which are symmetrical to each other with respect to a median plane perpendicular to both object holder 12 and flanges 25, can be established empirically, point by point.

    En pratique, suivant des dispositions qui, relevant de l'homme de l'art, ne seront pas explicitées ici, elles relèvent chacune d'une courbe s'apparentant globalement à une cycloïde.In practice, according to provisions which, falling under skilled in the art, will not be explained here, they are each of a curve roughly akin to a cycloid.

    Le bloc de support 15 du cliché 11 est relié à la platine 27 par des tirants 31, qui, localement, sont chacun entourés par une douille 32 formant entretoise entre ce bloc de support 15 et la platine 27.The support block 15 of the plate 11 is connected to the plate 27 by tie rods 31, which locally are each surrounded by a socket 32 forming a spacer between this block support 15 and plate 27.

    Par un bras 33 dont il est solidaire, le bloc de support 15 du cliché 11 est attelé à un vérin double effet 34 monté oscillant sur la tête d'application 16.By an arm 33 of which it is integral, the block of support 15 of plate 11 is coupled to a double-acting cylinder 34 oscillating mounted on the application head 16.

    Par exemple, et tel que représenté, le piston 35 de ce vérin double effet 34 est articulé au bras 33 tandis que son corps 36 est articulé à la tête d'application 16.For example, and as shown, the piston 35 of this double-acting cylinder 34 is articulated on the arm 33 while its body 36 is articulated to the application head 16.

    Une disposition inverse est évidemment envisageable, mais, dans l'un et l'autre cas, les axes d'articulation correspondants sont parallèles aux génératrices de la surface 18 du bloc de support 15 à laquelle est appliqué le cliché 11.A reverse arrangement is obviously possible, but, in both cases, the axes of articulation correspondents are parallel to the generatrices of the surface 18 of the support block 15 to which the plate 11 is applied.

    Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, le bras 33 est rapporté sur la platine 27 par des vis 37.In the embodiment shown, the arm 33 is attached to the plate 27 by screws 37.

    Par une superstructure 38 portée par sa traverse 30, la tête d'application 16 est solidaire du piston 39, schématisé en traits interrompus sur la figure 1, d'une presse de type usuel, pour sa commande en va-et-vient par rapport au support porte-objet 12 et l'exercice de la force nécessaire à la pression de contact recherchée.By a superstructure 38 carried by its cross member 30, the application head 16 is secured to the piston 39, shown diagrammatically in broken lines in Figure 1, a press type usual, for its back-and-forth order relative to the support object holder 12 and the exercise of force necessary for the contact pressure sought.

    La disposition correspondante étant usuelle en la matière, elle ne sera pas décrite plus en détail ici.The corresponding provision being customary in the matter, it will not be described in more detail here.

    Lorsque, sous le contrôle du piston 39, le bloc de support 15 du cliché 11 applique la feuille 14 contre l'objet 13 à imprimer placé sur le support porte-objet 12, l'entrée en action du vérin double effet 34 provoque un basculement du bloc de support 15, suivant la double flèche cintrée F2 de la figure 2, et, donc, à travers la feuille 14, un déroulement du cliché 11 le long de l'objet 13 à imprimer.When, under the control of the piston 39, the block of support 15 of the photograph 11 applies the sheet 14 against the object 13 to be printed placed on the object holder 12, the entry into action of the double-acting cylinder 34 causes the block to tilt support 15, along the curved double arrow F2 in FIG. 2, and therefore, through sheet 14, an unfolding of the photograph 11 along the object 13 to be printed.

    Au cours de ce basculement, les galets 28 présents à l'une des extrémités de la platine 27 parcourent par exemple leurs lumières 26 de l'extrémité inférieure 26A de celles-ci à leur extrémité supérieure 26B, tandis que les galets 28 présents à l'autre des extrémités de cette platine 27 parcourent corollairement leurs propres lumières 26 de l'extrémité supérieure 26B de celles-ci à leur extrémité inférieure 26A.During this tilting, the rollers 28 present at one end of the plate 27 travel for example their lights 26 of the lower end 26A thereof at their upper end 26B, while the rollers 28 present at the other end of this plate 27 as a corollary run their own lights 26 of the upper end 26B of these at their end lower 26A.

    Ainsi qu'on le notera, suivant le montage basculant de l'invention, l'axe instantané de rotation autour duquel pivote le bloc de support 15 du cliché 11 au cours de son basculement ne se trouve pas matérialisé, à la différence de ce qui est le cas dans un montage rotatif.As will be noted, according to the tilting assembly of the invention, the instantaneous axis of rotation about which pivots the support block 15 of the plate 11 during its tilting is not materialized, unlike what is the case in a rotary mounting.

    Autrement dit, cet axe instantané de rotation est immatériel.In other words, this instantaneous axis of rotation is immaterial.

    Sur la figure 2, ont été schématisées, en traits interrompus, les positions extrêmes correspondantes du piston 35 du vérin double effet 34. In Figure 2, have been shown schematically, in lines interrupted, the corresponding extreme positions of the piston 35 of the double-acting cylinder 34.

    Bien entendu, la présente invention ne se limite pas à la forme de réalisation décrite et représentée, mais englobe toute variante d'exécution: dans le carde de l'invention tel que défini par les revendications.Of course, the present invention is not limited to the embodiment described and shown, but encompasses any variant: in the card of the invention as defined by claims.

    En particulier, au lieu d'appartenir à la tête d'application, les lumières des moyens de guidage peuvent appartenir au bloc de support du cliché, les galets associés appartenant alors, eux, à la tête d'application.In particular, instead of belonging to the head application, the lights of the guide means can belong to the support block of the plate, the associated rollers then belonging to the application head.

    Il va de soi également que la machine à imprimer suivant l'invention peut former par elle-même une entité susceptible d'être mise en oeuvre isolément, ou qu'elle peut former un simple poste d'impression particulier dans une machine à imprimer plus complexe.It goes without saying also that the printing machine according to the invention can form by itself an entity likely to be implemented in isolation, or that it can form a simple particular printing station in a more complex printing machine.
