[0015] Zum Öffnen wird die Bobine 10 von dem Wagen 16 erfasst und durch die Öffnungsstation 30 hindurchbewegt. Durch die Relativbewegung wird selbsttätig ein Öffnungsaggregat 31 in der Öffnungsstation 30 wirksam. Das Öffnungsaggregat 31 trennt einen Streifen, nämlich einen Öffnungsstreifen 32, aus der Umhüllung 11 heraus, so dass diese durchtrennt ist. Die Außenumhüllung 11 hängt danach mit freien Schenkeln 33, 34 seitlich am Umfang der Bobine 10. Einer der Schenkel 33, 34 wird bei Ingebrauchnahme der Bobine 10 zum Abziehen der Bahn erfasst. [0015] To open the bobbin 10 is detected by the trolley 16 and moved through the opening station 30th By the relative movement, an opening unit 31 in the opening station 30 is automatically effective. The opening assembly 31 separates a strip, namely an opening strip 32, from the envelope 11 so that it is severed. The outer sheath 11 then hangs with free legs 33, 34 laterally on the circumference of the reel 10. One of the legs 33, 34 is detected when putting the reel 10 to remove the web.

[0016] Das Öffnungsaggregat 31 ist mit einem Abreißorgan versehen, welches die Umhüllung 11 an der Außenseite erfasst und durch Relativbewegung den Öffnungsstreifen 32 aus der Umhüllung 11 herausreißt. Die Umhüllung 11 besteht dabei aus reißfähigem Material, wie Papier, Stanniol oder dergleichen. Bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel wird die Relativbewegung der Bobine 10 dadurch erreicht, dass der Wagen 16 die betreffende Bobine 10 an dem ortsfest positionierten Abreißorgan vorbeibewegt. Dieses ist auf der dem Umfang der Bobine 10 zugekehrten Seite mit einem Haftmittel versehen, zum Beispiel einem (starken) Kleber 44, der infolge Verbindung mit der Umhüllung 11 den anhaftenden Bereich, also den Öffnungsstreifen 32, heraustrennt.The opening assembly 31 is provided with a tear-off, which detects the envelope 11 on the outside and tearing the opening strip 32 out of the envelope 11 by relative movement. The envelope 11 consists of tear-resistant material, such as paper, Stanniol or the like. In the present embodiment, the relative movement of the reel 10 is achieved in that the carriage 16, the relevant reel 10 moves past the fixedly positioned Abreißorgan. This is provided on the circumference of the reel 10 side facing with an adhesive, for example, a (strong) adhesive 44, the adhesive portion due to connection with the envelope 11, so the opening strip 32, separates out.

[0017] Das Abreißorgan ist im vorliegenden Falle ein (endliches) Abreißband 35. Dieses wird von einer Rolle 36 takt- bzw. abschnittsweise abgezogen. Ein der axialen Abmessung der Bobine 10 entsprechender Abschnitt des Abreißbandes 35 wird mit einer auf der zugekehrten Seite angeordneten Klebefläche an die Umhüllung 11 angedrückt und mit dieser verbunden. Zu diesem Zweck wird das Abreißband 35 über eine Andrückrolle 37 geleitet, die den betreffenden Abschnitt des Abreißbandes 35 an die Bobine 10 andrückt. Das Abreißband 35 wird dabei im Bereich der Andrückrolle 37 mit einer (Umfangs (Umfangs-)Geschwindigkeit bewegt, die der Fördergeschwindigkeit der Bobine 10 entspricht. Die Andrückrolle 37 besteht aus elastischem Material bzw. ist mit einem elastischen Mantel 38 versehen. [0017] The Abreißorgan is in this case a (finite) tear tape 35. This is clock by a roller 36 and partially peeled off. One of the axial dimension of the bobbin 10 corresponding portion of the tear strip 35 is pressed with a arranged on the side facing adhesive surface to the envelope 11 and connected thereto. For this purpose, the tear strip 35 is passed over a pressure roller 37, which presses the relevant portion of the tear strip 35 to the reel 10. The tear strip 35 is thereby moved in the region of the pressure roller 37 with a (peripheral (circumferential) speed which corresponds to the conveying speed of the reel 10. The pressure roller 37 is made of elastic material or is provided with an elastic sheath 38.

[0018] Das Abreißband 35 trennt aufgrund der Haftverbindung mit der Umhüllung 11 den Öffnungsstreifen 32 aus der Umhüllung 11 heraus. Der Öffnungsstreifen 32 bleibt in Verbindung mit dem Abreißband 35 und wird mit diesem abgefördert. Bei dem vorliegenden Beispiel wird das Abreißband 35 von einer Sammelrolle 39 aufgenommen. Diese ist drehend angetrieben, jedoch mit einem kleinen Drehmoment, so dass ein Abreißen des Abreißbandes 35 vermieden wird.The tear strip 35 separates due to the adhesive bond with the envelope 11, the opening strip 32 of the envelope 11 out. The opening strip 32 remains in connection with the tear strip 35 and is conveyed away with this. In the present example, the tear strip 35 is received by a gathering roller 39. This is driven in rotation, but with a small torque, so that a tearing off of the tear strip 35 is avoided.

[0019] Bei Bahnen aus einem Material geringer Reißfähigkeit, zum Beispiel bei Folien, wird der Abreißvorgang bzw. das Heraustrennen des Öffnungsstreifens 32 unterstützt durch Hilfsorgane, die am Umfang der Bobine 10 anliegen und die Reißlinie bestimmen. Bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel handelt es sich dabei um (zwei im Abstand voneinander angeordnete) Reißkanten 43, die zu beiden Seiten des Abreißbandes 35 am Öffnungsaggregat 38 in einer Schrägstellung positioniert sind. Die Reißkanten 43 kommen beim Anheben des Öffnungsaggregats am Umfang der Bobine 10 zur Anlage. Angeschärfte Ränder bzw. Kanten unterstützen den Abreißvorgang.For webs made of a material with low tear resistance, for example in films, the tear-off process or the separation of the opening strip 32 is supported by auxiliary organs which rest on the circumference of the reel 10 and determine the tear line. In the present embodiment, these are (two spaced apart) tearing edges 43, which are positioned on both sides of the tear strip 35 on the opening assembly 38 in an inclined position. The tear edges 43 come when lifting the opening unit on the circumference of the reel 10 to the plant. Sharpened edges or edges support the tear-off process.

[0020] Die nun geöffnete Bobine 10 wird durch den Wagen 16 einer Abgabestation 40 zugeführt. Danach gelangt die Bobine 10 beispielsweise in die Splice-Station zur Verbindung mit einer ablaufender Materialbahn. [0020] The now open reel 10 is fed by the carriage 16 of a dispensing station 40th Thereafter, the reel 10 passes, for example, in the splicing station for connection to a running material web.

[0021] Die Öffnungsstation 30 bzw. das Öffnungsaggregat 31 ist ortsfest positioniert und mit dem Traggestell 19 verbunden. Das Öffnungsaggregat 31 liegt etwa mittig zwischen den Tragstangen 13, 14. Eine aufrechte Tragwand 41 hält auf der einen Seite das Abreißband 35 mit Rolle 36, Andrückrolle 37 und Sammelrolle 39. Auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite ist der Antrieb für die Sammelrolle 39 vorgesehen, nämlich ein Riementrieb 42. Der Wagen 16 ist in seiner Konstruktion U-förmig ausgebildet, so dass der Wagen 16 störungsfrei durch die Öffnungsstation 30 hindurch- bzw. an dem Öffnungsaggregat 31 vorbeibewegt werden kann. Alternativ kann das Öffnungsaggregat 31 verfahrbar bzw. einer Bobine 10 zustellbar sein. [0021] The opening station 30 and the opening assembly 31 is fixedly positioned and connected to the support frame 19th An opening support wall 41 holds on one side the tear strip 35 with roller 36, pressure roller 37 and collecting roller 39. On the opposite side of the drive for the collecting roller 39 is provided, namely a Belt drive 42. The carriage 16 is formed in its construction U-shaped, so that the carriage 16 without interference through the opening station 30 through or can be moved past the opening assembly 31. Alternatively, the opening unit 31 can be moved or fed to a reel 10.

[0022] Der Wagen 16 kann in geeigneter Weise in Längsrichtung des Magazins 12 angetrieben werden. Beispielsweise kann dem Wagen eine (handelsübliche) Lineareinheit als Antriebsorgan zugeordnet sein oder ein ebenfalls handelsüblicher kolbenstangenloser Zylinder (nicht gezeigt). Das in beschriebener Weise ausgebildete Magazin 12 kann auch unabhängig von dem Öffnungsaggregat 31 eingesetzt werden. [0022] The carriage 16 can be driven in the longitudinal direction of the magazine 12 in a suitable manner. For example, the carriage may be assigned a (commercially available) linear unit as a drive member or a likewise commercially available rodless cylinder (not shown). The trained in the manner described magazine 12 can also be used independently of the opening unit 31.
