Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for separating flat conveyed material with a suction device, wherein a region is defined via openings in the suction device, within the suction device detects the conveyed material to be separated.
  • FIG. 1 Facilities for separating flat conveyed with a suction drum as a suction device, such. B. from DE 29 05 278 C3, consist essentially of a stator and a rotor.
  • the stator has sectorial, circumferentially extending suction chambers, which are subjected to a negative pressure.
  • the rotor has suction openings, which are respectively associated with the suction spaces of the stator and individually withdraw the conveyed material from a stack of conveyed goods and feed it to a downstream transport system.
  • the material to be separated is detected within a rotational angle of the rotating rotor, within which cover the suction chambers of the stator and the associated suction openings of the rotor, ie stator and rotor operate on the so-called rotary valve principle.
  • the suction openings of the rotor are usually along a surface line of the rotor and are activated simultaneously.
  • the suction openings may also have a slight offset to the surface line, so that they are opened with little delay successively during the rotation of the rotor, whereby a tilting of the conveyed material to be separated can be avoided.
  • the known separating devices have the particular disadvantage that a high noise level is generated by the operation of the suction device, which is perceived as very unpleasant.
  • the noise generated by the suction device is mainly caused by the activation of the suction openings. Further noise components are caused by the striking or clinging of the conveyed material to the suction device when it is withdrawn for separation of winninggutstapel.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a device for separating flat conveyed material with a suction device, in which at least the noise generated by the suction openings during operation is reduced, so that the resulting noise level is reduced.
  • the invention is based on the consideration that an offset arrangement of the suction openings of the suction device results in an at least partial extinction of the noise in the staggered activation of the suction openings.
  • a separating device which corresponds to the preamble of claim 1 and, in which the suction openings of the rotor are arranged obliquely, so that not a larger number of suction openings is opened simultaneously.
  • particularly high noise levels are avoided when opening the suction openings.
  • a reduction of the noise is not effected.
  • FIG. 1 shows an apparatus for separating flat conveyed with a suction drum in a simplified schematic representation.
  • the suction drum is formed by a stator 10 and a rotor 11.
  • a guide 15 and a retainer 16 are present.
  • To the guide 15 an unillustrated baingutstapel is created and the conveyed is separated by means of the suction drum, conveyed in the direction indicated by arrow 17 and passed to a transport device, not shown, which transports the separated conveyed for further processing in the direction indicated by arrow 18 ,
  • the retaining device 16 is used.
  • the stator 10 has an opening 30, via which the stator 10 can be connected to a vacuum system.
  • the stator 10 has a suction chamber, which is delimited by an opening edge 13 and a closing edge 14. To clarify the structure of the stator 10, this is again shown in Figure 2 a) and c), in plan view of the suction chamber and as a section.
  • the suction openings along the generatrices 20,21,22,23 of the rotor 11 in Figure 3 a) are shown in a plan view of the suction openings.
  • a pressure distribution results on the suction drum as shown in FIG. 4 a) in principle.
  • a negative pressure first occurs which corresponds to the negative pressure generated by the negative pressure system.
  • the amount corresponds approximately to the negative pressure. The vibration thus generated rapidly decreases towards zero.
  • each second suction opening along the generatrices 20,21, 22, 23 is moved relative to the other suction openings of the respective generatrix by a distance d, so that the displaced suction openings are also on generatrices 20 ', 22', 22 ', 23', of the generatrices 20, 21, 22, 23 are shifted by the distance d. Deviating from the illustrated displacement and a sectoral shift in the other direction is possible. Likewise it is possible the other suction to move relative to the respective second suction openings.
  • a further reduction of the noise generated by the Saugtronunel used in the device for separating flat conveyed material can be achieved by a time-delayed activation of the suction openings of the individual generatrices.
  • the opening edge 13 and the closing edge 14 of the suction chamber of the stator to be arranged obliquely, ie not along generatrices.
  • the individual suction openings along the respective generatrices 20, 21, 22, 23 and 20 ', 21', 22 ', 23' activated sequentially, which corresponds to a pulling apart of the remaining underpressure and overpressure half-waves.
  • This measure also has the advantage that a tilting of the flat conveyed material can be prevented when removing the bainstapel because the conveyed can be targeted directed against a guide.
  • additional suction openings are arranged from the first suction openings along the generatrices 20 and 20 '.
  • these additional suction openings may also be smaller, or fewer additional suction openings may be provided.
  • FIG. 5 a the opening edge 13 of the stator 10 is shown, wherein the designated by the reference numeral K point is of particular interest.
  • K point the designated by the reference numeral K point
  • a flattening m of the edge K perpendicular to the opening edge 13 can be made, or, as in FIG. 5 c) obliquely in a ratio of m: n, wherein a ratio of 1: 3 has proven to be particularly advantageous ,
  • the suction openings are not produced individually in the rotor 11 itself. Rather, it is possible to produce a recess in the region of the suction openings and to provide, for example, with a dovetail groove.
  • a correspondingly opposite grooved insert with suction holes can then be made of any material, such. B. made of rubber, and are introduced into the rotor 11.
  • suction chambers in the stator 10 or the required offset activation of the suction openings, for example to realize by an offset of the suction chamber or the suction chambers of the stator 10.
  • the hitherto described principle of canceling disturbing noises is also suitable for devices for separating flat conveyed material, which work instead of with a suction drum with another suction device, such as a suction belt or suction slide.
  • a linear movement is used to separate the flat conveyed material.
  • the decisive factor for the present movement is the elimination of the disturbing noises due to the staggered arrangement of the suction openings explained in connection with FIGS. 3 and 4.
  • a corresponding offset can thus also be provided for the suction openings of a suction belt or a suction slide.
  • the other measures described for noise reduction such as the use of smaller diameter suction ports, are applicable to suction devices that operate with linear motion.
  • Further improvement in the reduction of noise in singulation can be achieved by additionally attenuating the generation of noise, which can not be compensated as described above, by the first and last openings 20 'and 23. This can be achieved for example by an active sound attenuation. Under active Schallbedämfpung the generation of antiphase sound signals is understood, which lead to an extinction of the noise-causing sound signals.
  • a loudspeaker is mounted in the vicinity of the place of origin of the noise, so for example in the vicinity of the auxiliary line 13 ', which generates an anti-phase sound signal to the noise-causing sound signals
  • To generate an antiphase sound signal can by means of a Microphones the noise-causing sound signal for the first and last openings 20 'and 23 are detected.
  • the detected signals are mirrored on the signal axis, i. H. the amplitude values of the signal are given the opposite sign. This can be done immediately upon acquisition of the signal, or later in antiphase playback. It can also be detected and averaged several signals.
  • the electrical signals of the microphone can be digitized and the signal thus determined can then be stored in a memory, for. As an EPROM or EEPROM, are stored. The signal stored in the memory can then be read from the memory and reconverted to an analog signal. The analog signal can be amplified by means of an amplifier and reproduced by means of the loudspeaker.
  • the rotor 11 of the device can be used, since this usually has a device for determining the angular position and thus the position of the openings 20 to 23.
  • the output of the angular position determining means is used to control the read-out operation of the anti-phase signal data stored in the memory.
