Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for cleaning surfaces, in particular on plates, foils or laminates, for example made of plastic, with a cleaning device having an upper strand and a lower strand and at least two deflecting rollers or rollers, which with the one strand as the cleaning strand has the surface to be cleaned acted upon and attached to its inner side facing the deflection rollers or rollers on a supple, tension-resistant carrier tape or belt, the device having a pressing device with a guide for the cleaning strand, by means of which the cleaning strand against the surface to be cleaned during its advancing movement by the Leadership is pressable.
  • Such a device is known for example from DE-42 13 342 A1.
  • Such a cleaning device is described in column 1, lines 11 to 14, which has bristles on its upper and lower run, so that a rotating brush is formed.
  • the guides are designed to be divided so that the assembly of several identical belts with bristles can be arranged next to each other and to replace such bristled belts or comparable cleaning devices, as are also described in DE-42 13 342. It can thereby be achieved that, on the one hand, they are held securely and well in their guidance and are at least partially encompassed, but can nevertheless both be inserted into and removed from the guidance by disassembling the guidance.
  • split guides In addition to the assembly effort and the complexity of split guides, such split guides require a correspondingly large amount of space due to the required connecting means.
  • the device mentioned above is characterized in that the carrier belt is partially recessed or flattened on at least one long side and is therefore narrower than its remaining length range, that at least one part of the guide in the feed direction of the cleaning strand radially extends from the feed direction outside and thereby the inside of the carrier belt is deflectable or flexible and that the guide has a substantially C-shaped cross-section which takes up the entire width of the carrier belt, the narrower opening slot of the guide profile having a width that is smaller than that of the strap, but the same or larger than the recessed or flattened area of the carrier belt.
  • the deflectable end of the guide is located near one of the deflecting rollers, so that an inward force component on the carrier tape additionally presses it into the guide beginning, and the narrower dimension of the carrier belt allows this.
  • the subsequent wider part of the carrier belt is then gripped by the guide in the usual way. If the narrower area has been moved over the entire guide, the carrier belt as a whole is threaded in and the deflection of the guide can either be canceled shortly beforehand or at the latest then then.
  • the cleaning device can preferably be a linear brush with a carrier belt having the bristles, the width of the carrier belt being greater than that of the bristle field and at least one bristle-free edge of the carrier belt being overlapped by the C-shaped profiled guide in the use position. It may therefore be sufficient if the C-shape and the overlap affect only one edge of the carrier belt. This overlapped edge area is then to be provided with the recess or flattening when threading this area of the guide can be gripped by the carrier belt after its exempted location.
  • the carrier belt is overlapped by the profile of the guide on both longitudinal edges and is recessed and flattened on both sides in the narrower area. This results in a symmetrical guidance with a correspondingly secure mounting of the cleaning device during its operation and nevertheless allows the simple threading of a new cleaning tape of this type after the old one has been removed.
  • To remove the carrier tape there is, for example, the option of simply cutting through it when it is no longer useful due to wear.
  • the carrier belt can be a flat belt or a V-belt and optionally a toothed belt.
  • a V-belt is particularly advantageous because it can be pulled through the guide by sufficient deflection rollers with sufficient force, within which it is also subjected to a frictional force when pressed against the surface to be cleaned. With a toothed belt, the drive can be transferred even better to the rotating carrier belt.
  • the flattening can be chosen so that in the flattened or recessed area the width, which is present on the inside of this V-belt, is then also present on the outside, ie the V-flanks are removed in this area.
  • the deflectable or flexible part of the guide can be arranged near the deflecting roller, from which the carrier tape or the carrier belt enters the guide.
  • the invention enables a further embodiment of considerable advantage, which allows the carrier belt to be removed from the guide in an analogous manner, as can be threaded into it.
  • This embodiment of the invention can consist in that the guide or the guide profile is designed to be movable or pivotable away from the cleaning strand so that the part of this belt or belt following the narrower point of the carrier tape or belt runs out of the latter when the guide is moved inwards. Since the carrier belt has a tension, a movement of the guide inwards means that the overlapped part of the belt comes into contact with the corresponding webs of the profile with greater force. As soon as the narrower area of the belt reaches the beginning of the guide, it is deflected radially outward with respect to it, so that the following part no longer runs into the guide, ie is "unthreaded".
  • An essential part of the device according to the invention is the cleaning device with a carrier tape or belt which rotates over at least two deflecting rollers or rollers and can be used in the device mentioned at the beginning. It is essential for the solution of the task that the carrier tape or the carrier belt has at least one unilateral or two opposing cutouts on the longitudinal narrow sides and is narrower in the area of the cutout than in the subsequent area.
  • the carrier tape or strap can be wider than the bristle field it supports and the side (s)
  • the recess (s) can have a dimension in the transverse direction of the extension of the belt or band which is equal to or less than the width of the bristle-free edge region.
  • Such a carrier belt of a cleaning device can be used in a device defined at the outset and, due to the cutouts on the longitudinal narrow sides, can be threaded well into longitudinal guides, it only requiring a certain deflection at the entry of the guide, so that initially the narrower area corresponds to the longitudinal direction of the guide, so that the wider area then slips into the guide and is threaded by itself.
  • transition from the greatest width of the band or belt to the narrowest point can be rounded or beveled in the area of the cutout, in order to facilitate the threading process in particular, but possibly also the threading out.
  • a device designated as a whole by 1 is used for cleaning surfaces, which can be top or bottom surfaces of plates, foils or the like.
  • the device 1 is arranged so that it can clean a top located below it. In the same way, however, the device 1 turned through 180 ° can be used to clean an underside of a plate or the like.
  • the device 1 has a cleaning device, generally designated 2, which has an upper run 3, a lower run 4 and two deflection rollers 5 and 6, one run, in FIG. 1 the lower run 4 serving as a cleaning run and acting on the surface to be cleaned, which is not shown in more detail in FIG. 1 for the sake of simplicity.
  • a cleaning device generally designated 2 which has an upper run 3, a lower run 4 and two deflection rollers 5 and 6, one run, in FIG. 1 the lower run 4 serving as a cleaning run and acting on the surface to be cleaned, which is not shown in more detail in FIG. 1 for the sake of simplicity.
  • this cleaning device On its inside facing the deflection rollers 5 and 6, which can also be rollers, this cleaning device is attached to a supple, tension-resistant carrier tape or carrier belt 7 or this carrier belt 7 is an essential component of the endlessly rotating cleaning device.
  • the device 1 has a pressing device (not shown in more detail) with a guide 8 for the cleaning strand, which runs through this guide 8 and by means of which it can be pressed by the guide 8 against the surface to be cleaned in its direction of advance according to the arrow Pf1.
  • This pressure can be predetermined as required and as required.
  • the feed direction is provided from left to right according to arrow Pf1.
  • the carrier belt 7 belonging to the cleaning device 2 is partially recessed or flattened on at least one long side, in the exemplary embodiment shown on both opposite longitudinal sides, and is thus narrower than its remaining length range. Especially in FIG. 2, these precisely opposite recesses 9 can be clearly seen.
  • a part 8a of the guide 8 which is at the front in the direction of advance of the cleaning strand is outward from the direction of advance as shown in FIG and in doing so the inner side 7a of the carrier belt 7 can be deflected or swung out or bent, as shown in FIG. 1.
  • the outward deflection takes place in the sense that in this deflected area the lower run 4 is at a greater distance from the upper run 3 than in the other areas.
  • the guide 8 has a substantially C-shaped cross-section, which can accommodate the entire width of the carrier belt 7, the narrower opening slot 10, through which the bristles sitting on the carrier belt 7 according to FIG. 3 can protrude from the guide profile - has a width which is smaller than that of the carrier belt 7, but is equal to or greater than the recessed or flattened region of the carrier belt 7. This is particularly clear from FIGS. 3 and 4.
  • the carrier belt with its bristles 11 can be automatically threaded into the guide, that is, a split guide 8 is not required for mounting or later insertion of a new carrier belt 7.
  • the guide 8 can be designed to save space, and several can also be used such guides can be arranged immediately adjacent to each other, so that then several such carrier straps 7 can then run parallel to one another in these guides.
  • the guides shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 can each have corresponding guides adjacent to one another, in which corresponding carrier belts 7 can likewise run.
  • the carrier belt 7 carries bristles 11.
  • the cleaning device in the exemplary embodiment is therefore a linear brush with a carrier belt 7 having the bristles 11.
  • the width of the carrier belt 7 is larger than that of the bristle field and the bristle-free edges of this carrier belt 7 are in the use position according to FIG. 3 and also according to FIG 6 overlapped by the C-shaped guide 8. During operation, the carrier belt 7 is thus held very well by the guide 8.
  • the carrier belt 7 is a flat belt, in the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 5 and 6 a V-belt. In both cases it can also be designed as a toothed belt.
  • the flat belt is useful if several rows of bristles are to be provided on its cleaning side, while the V-belt is particularly expedient if a row of bristles is arranged on the outside of this belt 7.
  • the deflectable or flexible part 8a of the guide 8 is arranged near the deflection roller 5, from which the carrier tape or the carrier belt 7 enters the guide 8. There, such a deflection on the belt 7 can achieve the corresponding tension acting in the opposite direction, which is useful when threading according to FIG. 5.
  • FIG. 6 shows how the endlessly rotating cleaning device 2 having the carrier belt 7 can also be threaded well out of the guide 8 on its longitudinal narrow sides due to its one-sided or two mutually opposite recesses or recesses 9.
  • the guide 8 or the guide profile is designed to be movable or pivotable away from the cleaning strand, ie the strand 4 in the exemplary embodiment, as indicated by the arrow Pf2 in FIG. It is thereby achieved that the part of this belt or belt 7 following the narrower point of the carrier belt or belt 7 between the mutually opposite recesses or recesses 9 runs out of the latter when the guide 8 is moved inwards.
  • the belt tension is used to ensure that the belt emerges from the guide profile in its narrower area through the opening slot 10, so that the following part then runs outside the guide, so that after one Circulation of the carrier belt 7 no longer runs within the guide 8, as conversely when threading, practically less than one revolution is sufficient to move the carrier belt completely into the guide region.
