Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Kalander für Papier und ähnliches Bahnmaterial, mit einem Walzenstapel, der mindestens vier Walzen mit zugehörigen Lagerblöcken aufweist, mit einem Ständer, an dem Lagerblöcke gehalten oder etwa vertikal geführt sind, sowie mit einer einen Stützblock aufweisenden Belastungsvorrichtung, die von oben auf die Lagerblöcke der Oberwalze und/oder von unten auf die Lagerblöcke der Unterwalze wirkt.The invention relates to a calender for paper and similar web material, with a roll stack, of the at least four rollers with associated bearing blocks has, with a stand on the bearing blocks held or guided approximately vertically, as well as with a a load device having a support block, from above onto the bearing blocks of the top roller and / or from below onto the bearing blocks of the lower roller acts.

Mehrwalzen-Kalander dieser Art sind beispielsweise aus DE 28 23 738 C2 und EP 0 732 443 A1 bekannt. Der Walzenstapel umfaßt eine Vielzahl von Walzen, beispielsweise 14 Stück. Der Walzenstapel wird durch eine untere Belastungsvorrichtung in die Arbeitsposition gebracht und durch eine obere Belastungsvorrichtung mit Kräften belastet, die zusammen mit dem Gewicht der Walzen die Druckspannung in den Walzenspalten bestimmen. Die untere Belastungsvorrichtung stützt sich am Fuß des Ständers, die obere Belastungsvorrichtung an dessen Kopf ab. Ein Stützblock der unteren Belastungsvorrichtung stützt sich am Fuß des Ständers, ein Stützblock der oberen Belastungsvorrichtung an dessen Kopf ab.Multi-roll calenders of this type are, for example, out DE 28 23 738 C2 and EP 0 732 443 A1 are known. The roll stack includes a variety of rollers, for example 14 pieces. The roll stack is replaced by a lower one Load device brought into the working position and by an upper load device with forces which, together with the weight of the rollers, weighed down Determine the compressive stress in the nips. The lower one Load device is supported at the foot of the stand, the top loading device on its head from. A support block of the lower load device supports itself at the foot of the stand, a support block of the upper loading device on its head.

In neuerer Zeit sind Kalander bekannt geworden (DE-U-295 04 034), bei denen die Zahl der Walzen auf fünf bis acht vermindert, zur Erzielung des gleichen Satinageresultats aber die Walzentemperaturen erhöht sind und die Walzenspalte stärker belastet werden, beispielsweise mit einer mittleren Druckspannung im untersten Arbeitsspalt von mehr als 42 N/mm2. Diese Kalander benötigen wegen der größeren Belastungskräfte stärker dimensionierte Ständer.Calenders have recently become known (DE-U-295 04 034), in which the number of rolls is reduced to five to eight, but in order to achieve the same satin result, the roll temperatures are increased and the roll gaps are subjected to greater loads, for example with a medium one Compressive stress in the lowest working gap of more than 42 N / mm 2 . Because of the greater load forces, these calenders require stands with a larger dimension.

Bei Zwei-Walzen-Walzenpressen (DE 42 31 472 A1 und US-A-3 921 514) ist es bekannt, die Lagerblöcke der beiden Walzen unter Einschluß der Belastungsvorrichtung durch Zuganker zu verbinden. Hierbei kann ein Ständer entfallen.In two-roll presses (DE 42 31 472 A1 and US-A-3 921 514) it is known the bearing blocks of the two Rolling including the loading device to connect by tie rods. This can be a stand omitted.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Mehrwalzen-Kalander der eingangs beschriebenen Art anzugeben, der auch für hohe Belastungen geeignet ist.The invention has for its object a multi-roll calender of the type described in the introduction, which is also suitable for high loads.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch Zuganker, die an beiden Walzenenden längs des Walzenstapels verlaufen und deren Spannenden einerseits mit einem Lagerblock der Oberwalze oder - wenn vorhanden - mit dem Stützblock von dessen Belastungsvorrichtung und andererseits mit einem Lagerblock der Unterwalze oder - wenn vorhanden - mit dem Stützblock von dessen Belastungsvorrichtung verbunden sind, wobei zur Ermöglichung einer Dehnung der Zuganker die mit dem einen Spannende der Zuganker verbundenen Blöcke am Ständer geführt sind.According to the invention, this object is achieved by tie rods, at both ends of the roll along the roll stack run and their exciting one hand with a bearing block the top roller or - if available - with the Support block from its loading device and on the other hand with a bearing block of the lower roller or - if available - with the support block from its loading device are connected, to enable an expansion of the tie rods with one Exciting blocks connected to the tie rods on the stand are led.

Durch die Zuganker wird der Ständer entlastet. Die von der Belastungsvorrichtung aufgebrachten Kräfte werden im wesentlichen durch eine Dehnung der Zuganker aufgenommen. Der Ständer, der nach wie vor notwendig ist, um die Walzen im Stapel zu halten, wird hauptsächlich durch die Gewichte der Walzen und weiterer Bauteile belastet. Die Zuganker lassen sich auch leicht nachträglich anbringen. Man kann daher vorhandene Ständer auch für moderne Kalander verwenden, bei denen eine höhere Belastung auftritt. Durch einen solchen Umbau unter Verwendung des vorhandenen Ständers lassen sich Umbauzeit und Umbaukosten niedrig halten.The stand is relieved by the tie rods. The of forces applied to the loading device essentially absorbed by an expansion of the tie rods. The stand that is still necessary to The main thing is keeping the reels in the stack due to the weights of the rollers and other components loaded. The tie rods can also be easily retrofitted Attach. You can therefore use existing stands also use for modern calenders where one higher stress occurs. With such a modification using the existing stand Keep conversion time and conversion costs low.

Vorteilhaft ist, daß die Zuganker zwischen Walzenstapel und Ständer verlaufen. An dieser Stelle ist in aller Regel noch Platz für die Zuganker.It is advantageous that the tie rods between the roll stack and stand run. At this point is in everything Usually there is still space for the tie rods.

Günstig ist es, daß die Zuganker mit einem Abschnitt ihrer Länge am Ständer angebracht sind, der sich im Bereich eines am Ständer befestigten Lagerblocks befindet. Hierdurch ist die Lage des Zugankers am Ständer fixiert, ohne daß dabei die Funktionsweise behindert wird. Mindestens ein Ende der Zuganker ist für die erforderliche Dehnung frei.It is favorable that the tie rods with a section their length are attached to the stand, which is in Area of a bearing block attached to the stand. This is the position of the tie rod on the stand fixed without interfering with the operation becomes. At least one end of the tie rod is required for the Stretch free.

Empfehlenswert ist es, daß die Zuganker im Bereich der oberen Spannenden am Ständer angebracht und die unteren Spannenden an einem hängenden Teil der Zuganker ausgebildet sind. Da die Zuganker schon aufgrund ihres Eigengewichts ihren senkrechten Verlauf beibehalten, genügen einfache Maßnahmen, um diesen Verlauf der Zuganker am Ständer zu sichern.It is recommended that the tie rods in the area of upper exciting attached to the stand and the lower Exciting formed on a hanging part of the tie rod are. Because the tie rods are based on their own weight Maintain their vertical course are sufficient simple measures to this course of tie rods secure on the stand.

Von Vorteil ist es, daß die Lagerblöcke der Oberwalze und die oberen Spannenden ständerfest angeordnet sind und die unteren Spannenden einen Stützblock für die unten angeordnete Belastungsvorrichtung tragen. Diese Belastungsvorrichtung erzeugt einerseits die gewünschte Streckenlast und ermöglicht andererseits eine Schnellabsenkung zum Öffnen der Walzenspalte.It is advantageous that the bearing blocks of the top roller and the upper clamping ends are arranged fixed to the stand and the lower tensioners a support block for the Wear the load device located below. This Load device generates the desired one hand Line load and on the other hand enables quick lowering to open the nip.

Zu empfehlen ist es, daß die Lagerblöcke der Oberwalze am Ständer befestigt sind und eine Halterung aufweisen, die von je einem Zuganker durchsetzt ist und eine Auflage für dessen als Kopf geformtes oberes Spannende bildet. Die Zuganker brauchen daher nicht direkt am Ständer befestigt zu werden, sondern können auch von einem ständerfesten Lagerblock gehalten sein.It is recommended that the bearing blocks of the top roller are attached to the stand and have a holder, which is penetrated by a tie rod and a support for its upper, exciting shape shaped as a head forms. The tie rods therefore do not need Stand to be attached, but can also be from be held in a fixed bearing block.

Eine bevorzugte Alternative besteht darin, daß die oberen Enden der Zuganker am Ständer befestigt sind und auf der dem Ständer gegenüberliegenden Seite die Lagerblöcke der Oberwalze tragen. Wenn die Zuganker am Ständer befestigt sind, können sie ihrerseits als Träger ständerfester Lagerblöcke dienen.A preferred alternative is that the top Ends of the tie rods are attached to the stand and the bearing blocks on the side opposite the stand the top roller. When the tie rods on the stand attached, they can in turn be used as carriers fixed bearing blocks.

Bei einer Ausführungsform sind die Zuganker als zumindest stellenweise mit Gewinde versehene Stangen und zumindest einige Spannenden als Mutter ausgebildet. Dies ist zweckmäßig, wenn die wirksame Länge der Zuganker erstmals eingestellt oder in Folge eines Walzenaustauschs oder einer Walzenreduzierung eine Längenänderung vorgenommen werden muß.In one embodiment, the tie rods are at least partially threaded rods and at least some exciting people trained as mothers. This is useful if the effective length of the tie rod discontinued for the first time or as a result of a roller exchange or a roll reduction a change in length must be made.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind die Zuganker als Platten ausgebildet, die sich über einen wesentlichen Teil der Höhe und der Breite der Seitenteile des Ständers erstrecken. Eine solche Platte kann dicht neben dem Ständer angeordnet werden und nimmt kaum zusätzlichen Raum ein, was für einen Umbau günstig ist. Außerdem lassen sich auch mit dünnen Platten wegen der Breite der Ständerseitenteile verhältnismäßig große Querschnitte erreichen, so daß die Zugspannung in den Platten die zulässigen Grenzwerte nicht überschreitet. Auch lassen sich die Spannenden der Platte leicht verwirklichen. So können die oberen Spannenden zwischen Ständer und Lagerblöcken der Oberwalze angeordnet und mit beiden fest verbunden sein. Desweiteren können die unteren Spannenden fest mit einem die untere Belastungsvorrichtung abstützenden Stützblock verbunden sein. According to a preferred embodiment, the tie rods are formed as plates that have an essential Part of the height and width of the side panels of the stand. Such a plate can be tight can be arranged next to the stand and takes hardly any additional Space, which is cheap for a conversion. You can also use thin plates because of the Width of the stator side parts is relatively large Reach cross sections so that the tension in the Plates does not exceed the permissible limit values. The exciting features of the plate can also be easily realized. So the upper exciting between Stator and bearing blocks of the top roller arranged and be firmly connected to both. Furthermore, the lower tensioning firmly with the lower loading device supporting support block connected his.

Von Vorteil ist es auch, daß eine vertikale Längsnut des Stützblocks die Platte aufnimmt und ein Keil teilweise eine Quernut im Stützblock und teilweise eine Quernut in der Platte durchsetzt. Hierbei bedarf es nur geringfügiger Änderungen und Ergänzungen der vorhandenen Bauteile, um einen Kalander nachträglich mit Zugankern zu versehen.It is also advantageous that a vertical longitudinal groove of the support block receives the plate and a wedge partially a transverse groove in the support block and partly one Cross groove penetrated in the plate. This is only necessary minor changes and additions to the existing ones Components for retrofitting a calender with tie rods to provide.

Günstig ist es ferner, daß die Zuganker durch Halterungen am Ständer geführt sind. Diese Halterungen müssen einerseits eine Bewegung der Zuganker zwecks Dehnung zulassen, sollen aber andererseits ein Ausknicken o.dgl. der Zuganker verhindern.It is also favorable that the tie rods by brackets are guided on the stand. These brackets need to be on the one hand a movement of the tie rods for the purpose of stretching allow, but on the other hand should buckle or the like. prevent the tie rod.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind die Halterungen durch in vorhandene Führungen des Ständers greifende, am Zuganker angebrachte Hintergriffleisten gebildet. Es kommen aber auch andere Konstruktionsmerkmale in Betracht, beispielsweise Ständer und Zuganker umgreifende Klammern.In a preferred embodiment, the brackets through in existing guides of the stand gripping rear grip strips attached to the tie rod educated. But there are also other design features considered, such as stands and tie rods encompassing parentheses.

Empfehlenswert ist es auch, daß der Walzenstapel harte und weiche Walzen aufweist und daß die weichen Walzen einen Bezug aus elastischem Kunststoff tragen. Da solche Kunststoffbezüge nur minimales Abschleifen erfordern, können Zuganker ohne Längenverstellung verwendet werden, beispielsweise die erwähnten Platten.It is also recommended that the roll stack is hard and having soft rollers and that the soft rollers wear a cover made of elastic plastic. Because such Plastic covers only require minimal grinding, can use tie rods without length adjustment be, for example, the mentioned plates.

Der Mehrwalzen-Kalander 1 der Fig. 1 und 2 besitzt einen Ständer 2, dessen eines Seitenteil in der Zeichnung sichtbar ist. Ein Walzenstapel 3 weist eine Oberwalze 4, eine Unterwalze 5 und dazwischen acht Zwischenwalzen 6 auf. Die Zahl der Walzen im Stapel kann auch größer und vorzugsweise kleiner als zehn sein. Ein Teil der Zwischenwalzen 6, beispielsweise die 3., 5., 6. und 8. Walze des Stapels 103 trägt einen elastischen Bezug. Die Walzen werden an beiden Enden von je einem Lagerblock gehalten. Die Lagerblöcke 7 der Oberwalze 4 sind am oberen Ende des Ständers 2 befestigt, beispielsweise durch Schrauben und Klemmleisten. Die Lagerblöcke 9 der Unterwalze 5 sind vertikal gleitbar am Ständer 2 gehalten. Die Lagerblöcke 10 der Zwischenwalzen 6 sind je über einen Hebel 11 mit einem am Ständer festgelegten Drehpunkt 12 verbunden. An beiden Walzenenden gibt es eine Belastungsvorrichtung 13 mit einem Stützblock 14. Sie besteht aus hydraulischen Kolben-Zylinder-Einheiten, mit denen die Unterwalze 5 und die Zwischenwalzen 6 im Walzenstapel nach oben gegen die Oberwalze 4 gedrückt werden und zum Öffnen der Walzenspalte rasch abgesenkt werden können.The multi-roll calender 1 of FIGS. 1 and 2 has one Stand 2, one side part in the drawing is visible. A roll stack 3 has an upper roll 4, a lower roller 5 and in between eight intermediate rollers 6 on. The number of rollers in the stack can also be larger and preferably less than ten. A part of Intermediate rolls 6, for example the 3rd, 5th, 6th and 8. The roller of the stack 103 has an elastic cover. The rollers are supported by a bearing block at each end held. The bearing blocks 7 of the top roller 4 are attached to the upper end of the stand 2, for example by screws and terminal strips. The bearing blocks 9 of the Bottom roller 5 are held vertically slidably on the stand 2. The bearing blocks 10 of the intermediate rollers 6 are each via a lever 11 with a fixed on the stand Pivotal point 12 connected. There is at both roller ends a loading device 13 with a support block 14. It consists of hydraulic piston-cylinder units, with which the lower roller 5 and the intermediate rollers 6 in the roller stack pressed up against the upper roller 4 and opening the nips quickly can be lowered.

An beiden Walzenenden befindet sich zwischen dem Walzenstapel 3 und dem Ständer 1 ein Zuganker 15 in Gestalt einer an den Enden mit Gewinde versehenen Stange,die am oberen Spannende 16 einen als Mutter ausgebildeten Kopf 17 und am unteren Spannende 18 eine Mutter 19 trägt. Der stangenförmige Zuganker 15 durchsetzt eine Halterung 20 am Lagerblock 7 der Oberwalze 4, wobei die Oberseite der Halterung 20 eine Auflagefläche 21 für die Mutter 17 bildet. Das obere Ende des Zugankers 15 ist daher am Ständer 2 festgelegt. Der gesamte übrige Zuganker 15 hängt frei nach unten und kann sich daher, wenn durch die Belastungsvorrichtung 13 ein nach oben gerichteter Druck auf den Walzenstapel ausgeübt wird, nach unten dehnen. Der Stützblock 14 ist an der üblichen Führung 22 des Ständers 2 vertikal geführt. Der Zuganker 15 behält seine vertikale Lage bei allen Betriebszuständen bei.At both ends of the roller is between the roller stack 3 and the stand 1 a tie rod 15 in shape a threaded rod at the ends, the at the upper end 16 a trained as a mother Head 17 and a nut 19 at the lower end 18 wearing. The rod-shaped tie rod 15 penetrates one Bracket 20 on the bearing block 7 of the top roller 4, the Top of the bracket 20 a support surface 21 for the mother 17 forms. The upper end of the tie rod 15 is therefore fixed on stand 2. All of the rest Tie rod 15 hangs down freely and can therefore when up by the loading device 13 directed pressure is exerted on the roll stack, stretch down. The support block 14 is at the usual Guide 22 of the stand 2 guided vertically. The Tie rod 15 maintains its vertical position in all operating conditions at.

Auf diese Weise werden die gesamten Belastungskräfte vom Zuganker 15 aufgenommen. Der Ständer 2 merkt von dieser Belastung nichts. Er hat lediglich das gesamte Gewicht des Walzenstapels 3, der Belastungsvorrichtung 13 und des Zugankers 15 aufzunehmen. Daher lassen sich sehr hohe Streckenlasten erzielen, ohne daß der Ständer 2 übermäßig belastet wird.This way the total load forces taken up by the tie rod 15. The stand 2 notices from nothing of this burden. He only has the whole Weight of the roll stack 3, the loading device 13 and the tie rod 15. Therefore achieve very high line loads without the stand 2 is overburdened.

Bei der Ausführungsform nach den Fig. 3 bis 5 werden für entsprechende Teile um 100 erhöhte Bezugszeichen verwendet.In the embodiment according to FIGS. 3 to 5 for corresponding parts, reference numbers increased by 100 used.

Unterschiedlich ist im wesentlichen, daß die Zuganker 115 die Form einer Platte haben, die sich über einen wesentlichen Teil der Höhe des Ständers 102 und über einen wesentlichen Teil der Breite seiner Seitenteile erstrecken. Das obere Spannende 116 ist mit Hilfe von Schrauben 123 am oberen Ende 108 des Ständers 102 befestigt, während der übrige Teil des Zugankers 115 frei nach unten hängt. Auf der dem Ständer 102 gegenüberliegenden Seite ist der Lagerblock 107 der Oberwalze 104 mit Hilfe von Schrauben 124 am Zuganker 115 befestigt. Das untere Spannende 118 ist mit Hilfe eines Keils 125 mit dem Stützblock 114 verbunden. Der Zuganker 115 erstreckt sich durch eine Längsnut 126 des Stützblocks 114. Der Keil 125 erstreckt sich teilweise durch eine Quernut 127 im Zuganker 115 und teilweise durch eine Quernut 128 im Stützblock 114. Eine Halterung 129 wird durch Hintergriffsleisten gebildet, die an Vorsprüngen 130 des Stützblocks 114 angeschraubt werden und die übliche Führung 122 des Ständers 102 übergreifen. Die Halterungen 129 belassen dem Zuganker 115 so viel Spiel, daß er sich frei dehnen kann, wenn er belastet ist.The main difference is that the tie rods 115 have the shape of a plate that extends over one substantial part of the height of the stand 102 and above a substantial part of the width of its side parts extend.
