Definitions

  • the invention relates to an adhesive application device with an adhesive receiving Adhesive chamber, the front side of which is held by an adhesive roller with vertical Axis of rotation with a vertical side wall of the chamber a return gap limited for adhesive orders not accepted, and by one to this parallel sealing roller is closed, with the adhesive roller an adhesive passage gap forms and by sealing means against the other vertical side wall the chamber is sealed, with an adhesive application device that can be positioned on the adhesive roller or cliché roller, which is preferably in the format of glue this takes over and on workpieces to be applied with an adhesive transmits, and with a pivoted and provided with a drive Control lever in which eccentric to its pivot axis with an eccentricity that is smaller than the radius of the plate roller, the plate roller is mounted and the the plate roller moves away from the workpiece carrier when applying an adhesive No workpieces to be provided.
  • An adhesive application device of the type specified at the outset is, for example known from DE-C-19532582.
  • the cliché roller moved away from the material carrier consisting, for example, of a gripper cylinder if this is not an adhesive application Workpieces transported so that the workpiece carrier or the gripper cylinder does not be smeared with glue.
  • 3 to 5 of the drawing is a pivotable mounting of the plate roller described in which when moving away from the workpiece carrier Distance of the axis of rotation of the plate roller to the axis of rotation of the adhesive roller remains constant.
  • the cliché roller 2 provided with the cliché 3 is in storage 6 rotatably mounted in a lever 4, which in turn about the axis of rotation 5 of the Adhesive roller 1 is pivotally mounted.
  • the path of the continuously changed and workpieces to be applied with adhesive are indicated by the arrow A indicated. If the plate roller 2, 3 is to be moved away from the workpiece carrier, a drive, for example a pneumatic cylinder 7, is actuated, the lever 4 pivoted between the stops 8, 9 fixed to the frame.
  • FIGS. 3 to 5 The arrangement shown in FIGS. 3 to 5 has the Disadvantage that the cliché roller 2 on a relatively long lever stored at a relatively large distance from its pivot axis is to move and press the cliché roller with a smaller pivot angle must be pivoted so that at a mass swiveling greatly accelerated and braked have to be what at the high speed at which the on and off takes place because of the large accelerations resulting large mass forces problematic is.
  • the pivot axis 11th is at a distance from the axis of rotation 12 of the plate cylinder 2, which is smaller than the radius of the plate roller.
  • the arrangement has the disadvantage that that when the plate roller 2 is pivoted away from the workpiece carrier the axis of rotation 12 of the plate cylinder in the position 12 'is pivoted in the direction of the axis of rotation 5 the adhesive roller 1 concentric envelope cylinder B with the radius R deviates towards the inside, so that the axes of rotation 12, 5 the plate roller and the adhesive roller move closer to one another and the cliché squeezed in the manner shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 becomes.
  • This bruise, the even adhesive absorption prevented during parking is disadvantageous however accepted.
  • the object of the invention is an adhesive application device to create the type specified at the beginning, when reducing the mass forces resulting from the accelerations when the cliché roller is put on and off on the workpiece carrier the distance of the axis of rotation of the plate roller to that The axis of rotation of the adhesive roller does not change.
  • this object is achieved with an adhesive application device of the type specified in that the Axis of rotation of the plate cylinder or the axis of rotation of the adhesive roller are guided so that the distance between the plate roller to the adhesive roller remains the same.
  • the task is solved by that the existing from the adhesive chamber with adhesive and sealing roller Unit around a side, to the axis of the plate roller parallel axis pivoted and between one to the Axis of the adhesive roller concentric pin or sector and a control cam rotatable with the control lever a movable stored spacer is arranged that the unit resilient device acting on the pin of the adhesive roller presses against the spacer element and that the characteristic the control curve is selected so that when the Lever the distance between the axes of the adhesive roller and the Cliché roller remains constant.
  • the cliché roller for the purpose of setting it down and placing it on the workpiece carrier with a short length of the lever arm of the adjusting lever between the pivot axis of the control lever and the axis of rotation of the plate roller and with a large swivel angle of the control lever and thus swivel less acceleration, so that over the entire Travel the mass forces occurring during adjustment, So the acceleration and deceleration are kept low can.
  • the spacer element expediently consists of a in the machine frame pivoted lever with to the cliché roller axis parallel pivot axis.
  • the spacer via an adjustable eccentric on the Supports the adhesive roller so that the thickness of the adhesive application removed from the cliché by the adhesive roller can be adjusted.
  • the spacer element is expediently supported by a roller on the control curve.
  • the Adhesive roller in an adjusting lever provided with an actuator is mounted eccentrically to its pivot axis, so that the thickness of the adhesive application on the Adhesive roller can be adjusted.
  • the adhesive chamber 23 is up to that shown in FIG. 2 Mirror filled with adhesive 24, which is not through shown lines are supplied and possibly also discharged can.
  • the sealing roller 25 is rotatably mounted in the plate 20.
  • there is a cylindrical disk in the plate 20 27 rotatably mounted on both sides with eccentric pins 26, 28 is provided.
  • the adhesive roller 1 is mounted.
  • the cylindrical disc 27 is connected to an actuating lever 29, which has a Actuator 30, for example a pressure medium piston-cylinder unit, to adjust the thickness of the adhesive cylinder 1 adopted adhesive layer is provided.
  • the adhesive roller 1 and the sealing roller 25 are with drives provided that drive them in the direction of arrows C and D. Because of the special design of the adhesive chamber, the adhesive and sealing rolls and their drives, we refer to the adhesive application device known from DE 195 32 582.6.
  • a cylindrical one Disc 30 freely rotatably mounted with a radially projecting Adjusting lever 31 is connected by one in the machine frame pivoted pneumatic cylinder 32 between the Stops 33 and 34 fixed to the frame is pivotable.
  • the cylindrical disk which is used for storage, bears on her Underside of a cam 35.
  • a pin 36 is eccentric in the cylindrical disk 30 the plate cylinder 2 stored.
  • the gripper cylinder 40 is provided with grippers 41, the workpieces to be provided with glue on their front Capture ends.
  • the one radial lever 45 carries, which forms a spacer that extends with one side to the vertically upwardly projecting pin 28, which with the bearing pin 26 of the adhesive roller 1 is aligned and on the other hand the control curve 35 creates.
  • control curve is chosen so that when planting the spacer on the pin 28 on the one hand and the control curve 35 on the other hand when the cliché roller is pivoted 2 the distance between the axes of rotation of the adhesive roller 1 and the plate roller 2 remains constant.
  • the spacer element consisting of the lever 45 has between forked legs an eccentric bolt 52, the Eccentricity can be adjusted by turning the shaft 53 can. By turning the eccentric bolt 52, the effective width of the spacer 45 and thus that of Cliché 3 adopted thickness of the glue application can be set.
  • a roller 55 is mounted between forked legs, about which the spacer element 45 is supported on the control cam 35.
