Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for winding a slit material web, e.g. Paper web, the winding rolls resulting from the partial webs by means of two winding beds formed from winding support rollers are supported with the characteristics of the generic term of claim 1.
  • the invention also relates an apparatus for performing this method with the features of the preamble of claim 6; this device is preferably as a three-roll slitter educated. Theoretically you could also use the two mentioned changing beds Form using four winding support rollers.
  • Such a method and device are known from DE 32 43 994 C2.
  • the two are there Changing beds formed by three support rollers.
  • the emerging Winding rolls can be loaded with the changing beds are pushed in.
  • the state of the art is further referred to DE 35 41 906 C1, which is also a three-roll slitter is described.
  • the three winding support rollers form two changing beds, so that after the Partial webs created in part in one and partly wound up into winding rolls in the other changing bed can be.
  • Each one, on a winding tube emerging winding roll is made with the help of two Guided trestles.
  • Each winding block has one vertically movable sleeve guide, in which a clamping head is rotatably mounted. On the two ends of the The resulting winding roll grips the two clamping heads into the winding tube. This construction allows if necessary, the weight of the resulting winding roll counteract. You make use of that mainly when the winding roll diameter already has grown relatively large.
  • each of the support rollers can be driven individually.
  • each of the support rollers has an individually controllable drive. This can for example in one (resting on two of the support rollers) Winding roll on the two support rollers torque different Initiate size. By doing this, you try to To achieve a specific winding hardness. This succeeds but not always to the extent desired, especially if at least one of the partial webs (and thus the resulting one Winding roll) has a relatively large width. Then it may be necessary, at least in the early stages of the To produce a higher winding hardness than this was previously possible.
  • the invention has for its object a solution for Specify the problem previously described.
  • Winding rolls which are used in further processing (e.g. in Printing presses) must meet higher demands and which in usually have a relatively large partial web width, preferably in the central area of the total web width.
  • the invention makes it possible to in the winding roll in question initiate a higher torque than before. Moreover the invention allows the torque to be introduced not only to be divided between the two support rollers, but one certain torque component via the at least one load roller transfer to the winding roll. With others Words: According to the invention there are not only two but in three places of the circumference gradually in the circumferential forces larger winding roll initiated. Achieved in the result one winding rolls of relatively large width, which in particular in its core area a significantly higher winding hardness have than before.
  • Figure 1 shows schematically a winding machine partly in Side view, partly in cross section.
  • Figure 2 shows schematically a top view of the Winding machine in the initial phase of a winding process.
  • the winding machine shown in Figures 1 and 2 has one Machine frame with stands 12, which are connected by trusses 13 are ( Figure 1).
  • the trusses 13 are in turn in the Machine center connected by a longitudinal beam 14.
  • Three side by side arranged support rollers 15-17 extend parallel to the longitudinal beam 14.
  • Each of the support rollers is with a Provide drive M1-M3.
  • the two outer support rollers 16 and 17 extend at the same height and have the same, however smaller diameter than the middle carrier roller 15.
  • Each two adjacent support rollers form a winding bed.
  • the longitudinally cut material web 20 with total width B (Fig. 2), e.g. Paper web runs from below over the central one Carrier roller 15 in the machine. At least one of the cut ones Partial webs on the support rollers 15 and 16 too a roll 21 rolled up while at least a second Partial web rolled up over the rollers 17 and 15 to form a winding 22 becomes.
  • FIG. 2 shows the following, among other things: For example five winding rollers 21, 21.1, 22, 22.1 and 22.2 are formed. Because of the alternating in the two changing beds incoming partial webs e.g. between the two winding rolls 21 and 21.1, which arise in the one changing bed, an axial distance which is the width of that in the other changing bed emerging winding roller 22 corresponds.
  • each of the winding stands 29, 30 is equipped with a lifting device 48 vertically displaceable sleeve guide 34, 35 equipped.
  • Each sleeve guide carries an axially displaceable Clamping head, which in the (formed by a winding tube) Center of the relevant winding roll engages. 1 shows the sleeve guides 34, 35 in an upper position, the they take up when the winding rolls 21 ', 22' reach their maximum Have reached diameter.
  • each of the outer support rollers 16, 17 assigned a roller lowering device 53, 54 with which the finished winding rolls are ejected from the machine become.
  • the middle support roller 15 has a (preferably according to DE-PS 3843246) perforated roller jacket and a suction connection. As a result, vacuum 15 can occasionally be generated inside the support roller are generated, in particular during the role change after cutting the partial lanes, the new beginnings to hold on the support roller 15.
  • each The load roller is rotatably mounted in the free end of a pair of levers 3, which on a horizontally movable carriage 4 is articulated. For pivoting the lever pair 3 and a lifting device 5 is used to control the loading force.
  • the carriage 4 is on a vertical by means of the lifting device 7 displaceable side member 6 supported. If the winding rolls have reached a certain diameter (e.g. 0.5m), the loading rollers 1, 2 are usually upwards away.
  • Figure 2 shows (as a simplified example) that each of the outer, relatively narrow winding rollers 22.1 and 22.2 a single Load roller 2.1, 2.2 is assigned. Rest against it on the middle, relatively wide winding rolls 21, 22, 21.1 two (or more) load rollers 1, 2, 1.1 each.
  • Each of the load rollers is included in the example shown a drive M (only shown symbolically).
  • a control center 9 is for each of the drives M and a control unit 8 for each of the support roller drives M1 to M3 intended. This means that each of the drives can be controlled individually. However, as indicated at 10, one can select one Couple control units 8 together. This allows the Drives of a specific winding roll (e.g. 22) assigned load rollers 2 are controlled together.
