Description

Vorrichtung zur Applikation von räumlich begrenzten, insbesondere flexiblen Elementen Device for the application of spatially limited, in particular flexible elements
Beschreibungdescription
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Applikation von räumlich begrenzten, insbesondere flexiblen Elementen, z. B. Hologrammen o. dgl . , auf eine Endlosbahn, welche von einer Vorratsrolle abgezogen, über eine Siegelstation zu einer Abzugs- oder Führungsstation transportiert wird, wobei in der Siegelstation das flexible Element auf die Endlosbahn appliziert wird.The invention relates to a device for the application of spatially limited, in particular flexible elements, for. B. holograms or the like on an endless web, which is drawn off from a supply roll, is transported via a sealing station to a take-off or guiding station, the flexible element being applied to the endless web in the sealing station.
Es ist bekannt, dass Karten, Scheine, Papierbögen o. dgl. dadurch hergestellt werden, dass zunächst eine Endlosbahn bedruckt, gestanzt, geprägt usw. behandelt wird, und schließlich die einzelnen Produkte aus der Endlosbahn ausgeschnitten bzw. ausgestanzt werden. Außerdem ist bekannt, dass diese einzelnen Produkte auch mit räumlich begrenzten Elementen, z. B. Bildern, oder sehr teuren Hologrammen u. dgl. bestückt sind. Diese räumlich begrenzten Elemente befinden sich ihrerseits wieder auf einer Endlosbahn, von der sie abgehoben und auf die erste Endlosbahn aufgebracht werden. Laufen die beiden Endlosbahnen mit gleicher Geschwindigkeit durch die Siegelstation, dann wird lediglich ein Bruchteil der zweiten Endlosbahn benutzt, sodass der überwiegende Teil dieser zweiten Endlosbahn als Abfall entsorgt werden muss. Dies ergibt sich dadurch, dass das räumlich begrenzte Element wesentlich kleiner ist als die Produkte, auf welche diese appliziert werden sollen. Die Zwischenräume zwischen den einzelnen räumlich begrenzten Elementen auf der zweiten Endlosbahn müssen demnach als Abfall entsorgt werden.It is known that cards, notes, sheets of paper or the like are produced by first printing, punching, embossing, etc. treating an endless web, and finally cutting or punching out the individual products from the endless web. It is also known that these individual products also with spatially limited elements, for. B. pictures, or very expensive holograms u. Like. are equipped. These spatially limited elements are in turn on an endless path from which they are lifted off and applied to the first endless path. If the two endless webs run through the sealing station at the same speed, only a fraction of the second endless web is used, so that the majority of this second endless web has to be disposed of as waste. This results from the fact that the spatially limited element is significantly smaller than the products to which they are to be applied. The gaps between the individual spatially limited elements on the second endless path must therefore be disposed of as waste.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung bereitzustellen, mit welcher die zweite Endlosbahn besser genutzt werden kann, sodass der Abfall verringert wird.The invention is therefore based on the object To provide a device with which the second endless web can be better used, so that the waste is reduced.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass bei einer Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art vor und nach der Siegelstation jeweils eine Exzenterstation vorgesehen ist und die Exzenterstation eine Exzenterwelle aufweist, über welche die Endlosbahn geführt ist, wobei die beiden Exzenterwellen um 180° versetzt umlaufen.This object is achieved in that an eccentric station is provided in front of and after the sealing station in a device of the type mentioned at the beginning and the eccentric station has an eccentric shaft over which the endless track is guided, the two eccentric shafts rotating at an offset of 180 °.
Aufgrund der Maßnahme, dass vor und nach der Siegelstation Exzenterstationen vorgesehen werden, durch welche die Endlosbahn hindurchgeführt wird, wird die Möglichkeit geschaffen, dass in diesen Exzenterstationen, die zeitweise als Puffer wirken, die Transportgeschwindigkeit der Materialbahn verringert bzw. beschleunigt wird. Dies wird durch Exzenterwellen erreicht, über welche die Endlosbahn geführt ist. Drehen sich die Exzenterwellen, so nehmen sie quasi bei der Auslenkung Endlosband mit und geben dieses anschließend wieder frei. Hierdurch wird die Transportgeschwindigkeit der Endlosbahn mit einer sinusförmigen Vor- und Zurückbewegung überlagert, sodass die resultierende Transportgeschwindigkeit eine langsame und eine schnelle Bewegung ist.Due to the measure that eccentric stations are provided before and after the sealing station, through which the endless web is passed, the possibility is created that the transport speed of the material web is reduced or accelerated in these eccentric stations, which temporarily act as a buffer. This is achieved by means of eccentric shafts over which the endless path is guided. If the eccentric shafts rotate, they take the endless belt with them when they are deflected and then release it again. As a result, the transport speed of the endless path is overlaid with a sinusoidal back and forth movement, so that the resulting transport speed is a slow and a fast movement.
Befindet sich nun das räumlich begrenzte Element, z. B. das Hologramm, ebenfalls auf einer Endlosbahn, so wird das Hologramm dann auf die erste Endlosbahn appliziert, wenn diese ihre minimale Transportgeschwindigkeit aufweist. Die die Hologramme tragende Endlosbahn muss deshalb lediglich mit dieser minimalen Transportgeschwindigkeit transportiert werden, sodass der Abfall zwischen den einzelnen Hologrammen reduziert wird. Nach der Applikation des Hologramms auf die erste Endlosbahn wird diese wieder auf maximale Geschwindigkeit beschleunigt und anschließend zur Applikation des nächsten Hologramms wieder abgebremst .Is now the spatially limited element, for. B. the hologram, also on an endless path, the hologram is then applied to the first endless path when it has its minimum transport speed. The endless web carrying the holograms therefore only has to be transported at this minimum transport speed, so that the waste between the individual holograms is reduced. After the application of the hologram on the first continuous path, it is accelerated again to maximum speed and then for the application of the next hologram slowed down again.
Bevorzugt laufen die Exzenterwellen in Transportrichtung der Endlosbahn um. Auf diese Weise wird die Relativgeschwindigkeit und somit die Reibung zwischen Exzenterwelle und Endlosbahn auf ein Minimum reduziert.The eccentric shafts preferably run in the transport direction of the endless path. In this way, the relative speed and thus the friction between the eccentric shaft and the endless track is reduced to a minimum.
Bei einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel weisen die Exzenterwellen einen kreisrunden Querschnitt auf und sind exzentrisch gelagert. Ein kreisrunder Querschnitt der Exzenterwelle bietet den Vorteil, dass, entgegen einer nockenförmigen Exzenterwelle, die endlose Bahn schonend behandelt wird, da an ihr die von der Exzenterwelle ausgehenden Kräfte sinusförmig ansteigen bzw. abfallen und somit abrupte Kraftspitzen vermieden werden.In a preferred embodiment, the eccentric shafts have a circular cross section and are mounted eccentrically. A circular cross-section of the eccentric shaft offers the advantage that, contrary to a cam-shaped eccentric shaft, the endless path is treated gently, since the forces emanating from the eccentric shaft rise or fall sinusoidally on it, thus avoiding abrupt force peaks.
Eine Verringerung von Reibungskräften wird dadurch erreicht, dass auf der Exzenterwelle eine gegenüber der Exzenterwelle verdrehbare Hülse lagert, die ihrerseits keine Relativgeschwindigkeit zur Transportbahn besitzt.A reduction in frictional forces is achieved in that a sleeve rotatable relative to the eccentric shaft is mounted on the eccentric shaft, which sleeve in turn has no speed relative to the transport path.
Gemäß einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Exzentrizität der Exzenterwellen verstellbar. Auf diese Weise kann die Amplitude der sinusförmigen Beschleunigung bzw. Verzögerung auf einen gewünschten Wert eingestellt werden.According to a preferred embodiment, the eccentricity of the eccentric shafts is adjustable. In this way, the amplitude of the sinusoidal acceleration or deceleration can be set to a desired value.
Bei einer Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass die Exzenterwellen synchron zum Applikationstakt umlaufen. Immer dann, wenn eine Siegelung erfolgen soll, weist die Transportgeschwindigkeit der Endlosbahn ihren Minimalwert auf, wodurch einerseits erreicht wird, dass die Siegelung hochpräzise erfolgen kann, andererseits die erste Endlosbahn während der Applikation die gleiche Geschwindigkeit aufweist, wie die zweite Endlosbahn, von welcher das Hologramm abgenommen wird. Weitere Vorteile, Merkmale und Einzelheiten der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen sowie der nachfolgenden Beschreibung, in der unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnung ein besonders bevorzugtes Ausführungsbeispiel im Einzelnen beschrieben ist. Dabei können die in der Zeichnung dargestellten sowie die in der Beschreibung und in den Ansprüchen erwähnten Merkmale jeweils einzeln für sich oder in beliebiger Kombination erfindungswesentlich sein.In a further development it is provided that the eccentric shafts rotate synchronously with the application cycle. Whenever a seal is to be carried out, the transport speed of the endless web has its minimum value, which on the one hand ensures that the sealing can be carried out with high precision, and on the other hand the first endless web has the same speed during application as the second endless web, of which that Hologram is removed. Further advantages, features and details of the invention emerge from the subclaims and the following description, in which a particularly preferred exemplary embodiment is described in detail with reference to the drawing. The features shown in the drawing and the features mentioned in the description and in the claims can each be essential to the invention individually or in any combination.
Die Zeichnung zeigt eine Prinzipansicht der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung 10. Von einer nicht dargestellten Vorratsrolle wird über eine Abzugstation 12 eine Endlosbahn 14 in Richtung des Pfeils 16 abgezogen. Diese Endlosbahn 14 durchläuft zunächst eine erste Exzenterstation 18 und wird dann in eine Siegelstation 20 geführt, wobei sie im Anschluß an die Sieglstation 20 über eine zweite Exzenterstation 22 geführt wird und von einer weiteren Abzugstation 12 transportiert wird. Mit dem Bezugszeichen 24 sind Umlenk- oder Tänzerrollen bezeichnet .The drawing shows a basic view of the device 10 according to the invention. An endless web 14 is drawn off from a supply roll (not shown) via a take-off station 12 in the direction of arrow 16. This endless web 14 first passes through a first eccentric station 18 and is then guided into a sealing station 20, after which it is guided after the sealing station 20 via a second eccentric station 22 and is transported by a further take-off station 12. The reference numeral 24 designates deflection or dancer rolls.
In der Siegelstation 22 wird von einer Hologrammfolie 26 ein Hologramm auf die Endlosbahn 14 appliziert. Dies erfolgt über ein Prägefeld, welches auf einer Siegelwalze 28 vorgesehen ist. Die Hologrammfolie 26 wird, ggf. über eine nicht dargestellte Transportvorrichtung, von einer Vorratsrolle 30 abgezogen und auf eine Aufwickelrolle 32 aufgewickelt.In the sealing station 22, a hologram is applied to the endless web 14 by a hologram film 26. This takes place via an embossing field, which is provided on a sealing roller 28. The hologram film 26 is pulled off a supply roll 30, possibly via a transport device (not shown), and wound onto a winding roll 32.
Die beiden Exzenterstationen 18 und 22 weisen jeweils eine Exzenterwelle 34 bzw. 36 auf, die um eine Achse 38 bzw. 40 umlaufen. Die beiden Exzenterwellen 34 und 36 sind derart angeordnet, dass sie um 180° versetzt sind.The two eccentric stations 18 and 22 each have an eccentric shaft 34 and 36, which rotate about an axis 38 and 40, respectively. The two eccentric shafts 34 and 36 are arranged such that they are offset by 180 °.
Die beiden Exzenterwellen 34 und 36 laufen synchron um, wobei ihr Versatz um 180° erhalten bleibt. Die Umlaufgeschwindigkeit korrespondiert zur Transportgeschwindigkeit der Endlosbahn 14 und ist so eingestellt, dass die beiden Exzenterwellen 34 und 36 je auf der Endlosbahn 14 sich befindenden Produkt einmal umlaufen. Dies bedeutet, dass zwischen den beiden Exzenterstationen 18 und 22 der Abschnitt der Endlosbahn 14 bei jedem durch die Siegelstation 20 hindurchlaufenden Produkt einmal abgebremst und einmal beschleunigt wird.The two eccentric shafts 34 and 36 rotate synchronously, their offset by 180 ° being retained. The rotational speed corresponds to the transport speed of the endless web 14 and is so set that the two eccentric shafts 34 and 36 each rotate once on the continuous web 14 product. This means that between the two eccentric stations 18 and 22, the section of the endless web 14 is braked once and accelerated once for each product passing through the sealing station 20.
Die Transportgeschwindigkeit der Hologrammfolie 26 ist dabei so eingestellt, dass diese der minimalen Transportgeschwindigkeit dieses zwischen den Exzenterstationen 18 und 22 sich befindenden Abschnitt der Endlosbahn 14 korrespondiert, wobei die Applikation des Hologramms zum Zeitpunkt der minimalen Transportgeschwindigkeit erfolgt . Genau zu diesem Zeitpunkt befindet sich das auf der Hologrammfolie 26 angeordnete Hologramm exakt in der gewünschten Position auf der Endlosbahn 14. Dies wird mit einer Registerregelung erreicht, wofür die Hologrammfolie 26 eine Registerlochung aufweist, in die entsprechende Transport- oder Registerzapfen oder der Siegelwalze 28 eingreifen. Nach der Applikation des Hologramms auf die Endlosbahn 14 wird die Endlosbahn 14 beschleunigt, wo hingegen die Geschwindigkeit der Hologrammfolie 26 beibehalten bleibt. Auf diese Weise wird der Abstand zwischen den einzelnen Hologrammen verringert, sodass die Hologrammfolie 26 besser aufgenutzt und dadurch der Abfall minimiert wird. The transport speed of the hologram film 26 is set so that it corresponds to the minimum transport speed of this section of the endless web 14 located between the eccentric stations 18 and 22, the hologram being applied at the time of the minimum transport speed. It is at this point in time that the hologram arranged on the hologram film 26 is exactly in the desired position on the endless web 14. This is achieved with a register control, for which the hologram film 26 has a register perforation into which corresponding transport or register pins or the sealing roller 28 engage . After the application of the hologram to the endless web 14, the endless web 14 is accelerated, whereas the speed of the hologram film 26 is maintained. In this way, the distance between the individual holograms is reduced, so that the hologram foil 26 is better used and the waste is thereby minimized.
