Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for coating spacer frames for insulating glass panes with adhesive or sealing compound with the features of the introductory part of the independent claim 1.
  • All known devices for coating spacer frames have two or more pressure rollers that hold the one between the nozzles, from which the sealant or adhesive on the side walls of the Spacer frame for insulating glass panes is applied, performed section of the spacer frame against the conveyor belt press the conveyor track.
  • the pressure rollers are with the known devices on the inner wall of the spacer frame forming hollow profile strip. This means that the pressure rollers not only have to be swung away when moving away from the conveyor upstanding leg of the spacer frame during of the coating process to move past the pressure rollers, but that they also have to be swung away if they have rungs provided spacer frame coated with adhesive or sealing compound become.
  • the pressure rollers of the known devices no lateral guidance, i.e. no guidance across Level of the spacer frame, so that in the known devices seen in the direction of movement of the spacer frame in front of the Nozzle guide elements, e.g. in the form of rolls, are provided to to guide the spacer frame exactly between the nozzles.
  • the invention has for its object the known devices to improve in that the drive rollers not only the necessary adhesion between the conveyor belt of the conveyor track and effect the spacer frame, but the spacer frame also lead sideways and that they are not always swung up if a rung moves past the pressure rollers, while a spacer frame is being coated.
  • this object is characterized by the features of the Part of independent claim 1 solved.
  • the pressure rollers on the Conveyor track lying moving between the coating nozzles Leg of the spacer frame only in the area the lateral edges of the inner surface of the spacer frame attack they only need to be swiveled up when Legs of the spacer frame protruding upwards from the conveyor track move past the pressure rollers while the spacer frame is coated. If inside the spacer frame move the arranged rungs past the pressure rollers, can the pressure rollers on the lying on the conveyor Continue to attack thighs. This increases the control effort significantly simplified and there are no devices, the rungs Detect and trigger the swiveling of the pressure rollers.
  • each two pressure rollers are arranged opposite each other, results secure guidance of the material lying on the conveyor track Leg of the spacer frame.
  • the Pressure rollers are stepped rollers, their part with a smaller diameter in the area of the outer edge of the inner surface and its vertical circular ring surface on side surfaces aligned with the axis of rotation of the hollow profile strip.
  • This embodiment has the advantage that the pressure rollers only in the area of the upper Longitudinal edges of the leg of the spacer frame resting on the conveyor track attack and still brings about safe leadership becomes.
  • the annular surfaces Side surfaces of the hollow profile strip only in their inner surface touch the adjacent area. This gives the advantage that one on the side surfaces of the hollow profile strips applied adhesive or Sealant is not touched by the pressure rollers.
  • the pressure rollers are conical rollers, the conical surfaces the side edges of the inner surface of the spacer frame forming Apply hollow profile bar.
  • This embodiment has the Advantage that the pressure rollers in order to adapt to different Profile dimensions can only be adjusted in one direction have to.
  • pressure rollers in the direction of their axis are adjustable, which allows a simple construction.
  • the invention can additionally provide be that the distance of the pressure rollers from the conveyor belt of the conveyor track is changeable. This embodiment allows the Pressure rollers, even if they are stepped rollers, of all kinds and adapt existing profile cross-sectional shapes.
  • Embodiments. 1 shows schematically in the conveying direction seen a first embodiment of pressure rollers; and Fig. 2 one modified embodiment.
  • Devices for coating spacer frames with adhesive or. Sealant which can be designed as in the shown and described in the introduction a conveyor track, usually with a conveyor belt 1, for those to be coated Spacer frame 2. Above the conveyor track 1 a support device 3 for those projecting upwards from the conveyor track Parts of the spacer frame 2 are provided. On both sides of the conveyor track nozzles are arranged, from which the adhesive or sealant on the side surfaces 4 of the spacer frame 2 forming Hollow profile strip 5 is applied. If necessary, there are devices (“Reversible gripper") provided with which spacer frame 2 after one leg has been coated can be twisted. Furthermore, the devices have pressure rollers on the frictional connection between the conveyor belt 1 of the conveyor track and effect the spacer frame 2. The transport of the Spacer frame 2 can, especially when coating, by a takeaway facility that goes up to one of the conveyor protruding legs of the spacer frame attacks supported become.
  • the lateral support device 3 can, as in the above Document is shown and described from a number of backup rolls consist of transporting the spacer frame when Support the coating process, for which the support rollers are driven are.
  • the support rollers can be pivoted away from the conveyor plane be, or they are simply reversed so that on the freshly applied coating does not damage this coating Apply shear forces.
  • the lateral support 3 of the parts of the spacer frame protruding upwards from the conveyor track 2 can also be designed in the form of a (sliding) wall in which if necessary, a conveyor belt is provided, which when rotating the Spacer frame can be withdrawn behind the retaining wall.
  • the support band is in a slot in the side support wall arranged.
  • the formation of the lateral support 3 is for the Invention not essential.
  • the pressure rollers 10 are in the embodiment shown in Fig. 1 opposite, so arranged in pairs, stepped Rollers with their smaller diameter section 11 on the side Edge of the inner surface 6 of the spacer frame 2 and press it against the conveyor belt 1 of the conveyor track. With the vertical the circular ring surfaces 12 are aligned with the axis of rotation Pressure rollers 10 at the upper ends of the side surfaces 4 of the hollow profile bar 5 of the spacer frame 2. This will make one lateral guidance of the limbs resting on the conveyor belt 2 Spacer frame 2 reached. 1 also shows that the pressure rollers 10 do not need to be pivoted away if a rung 15 between the pressure rollers during the coating process 10 moved through.
  • a pair of pressure rollers 10 are provided. Two pairs of pressure rollers are preferred 10 provided, namely a pair before and a pair after Nozzles with which sealant or adhesive on the side surfaces 4 the spacer frame 2 is applied.
  • the storage of the, optionally driven, pressure rollers 10 designed so that they are of different dimensions of hollow profile strips 2 can be adjusted.
  • the pressure rollers are for this purpose 10 adjustable in the direction of their axes 13 so that they are different Spacer widths can be adjusted.
  • the pressure rollers 10 are adjustable perpendicular to their axes 13, so that they reach different heights (in the direction of the plane of the Spacer frame 2 Measured dimension of the hollow profile bar 5) can be adjusted.
  • the adjustability of the pressure rollers 10 across to their axes of rotation 13, the adjustability by their distance to change from the conveyor belt 1 can also be used to Pressure rollers with the required pressure on the hollow profile bar 5 to create.
  • the pressure rollers 20 formed as conical rollers, the conical surfaces 21 only in Area of the outer edges 22 of the inner surface 6 of the spacer frame 2 concerns. In this embodiment, too, the necessary Contact pressure of the spacer frame 2 against the conveyor belt 1 and lateral guidance of the leg resting on the conveyor belt 1 of the spacer frame 2 reached.
  • an embodiment of the invention can be as follows to be discribed:
  • spacer frames 2 for Insulating glass panes are provided on both sides of a conveyor track 1 nozzle, what adhesive or sealant on the side surfaces 4 of the Spacer frame 2 is applied.
  • conveyor 1 pressure rollers 10 are provided which counter the spacer frame 2 press the conveyor belt 1.
  • the pressure rollers 10 engage on the spacer frame 2 in the area of the lateral edges of the inner surface 6 of the forming hollow profile 5. This creates a frictional connection between Conveyor belt 1 and spacer frame 2 causes and on the Conveyor belt 1 resting leg of the spacer frame 2 led to the side.
  • the pressure rollers 10 do not need to be swiveled up be when provided with rungs 15 Spacer frame 2 rungs 15 move past the pressure rollers 10.
