Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for one-sided or two-sided application of liquid or pasty application medium on a running surface, comprising a spaced from the substrate applicator, which emits the application medium in the free application medium beam to the ground, the substrate for direct application to the surface a material web, in particular of paper or cardboard, and in the case of indirect application, the surface of a transfer element, preferably a transfer roller, which then transfers the application medium to the surface of the material web, according to the preambles of claims 1, 5 and 27.
  • the invention relates to a Curtain applicator, ie an applicator device in which the applicator dispenses the application medium to the substrate as a curtain or veil that essentially moves as a result of gravity.
  • the application medium is delivered to the substrate in the form of a coating medium curtain, which moves substantially by gravity from the commissioned work to the ground.
  • a curtain applicator also known in the art as "curtain coating”
  • the curtain applicator is located at a predetermined distance from the ground, among other things, has the advantage that it is exposed to a lower risk of damage, for example, in a web break.
  • Curtain coats differ fundamentally from other "non-contact" coateries, such as free-jet jet coaters, in which the movement of the coating medium from the applicator to the substrate is primarily due to the ejection pulse from the applicator nozzle, since the shape of the curtain emerging from the dispenser nozzle is merely that of the applicator Interplay between the surface tension of the application medium and gravity is exposed.
  • the surface tension tries to contract the curtain, which has a very large surface or circumferential length in relation to its volume or its cross-sectional area, so as to reduce its surface area. This effect is resisted only by gravity, which seeks to stretch the curtain. It is therefore easy to see that it is all the more difficult to obtain a uniform over the entire working width coating medium curtain, the larger this working width.
  • the coating of webs by means of a curtain applicator, which feeds the web to the application medium as a substantially gravitationally moving application medium curtain or fog, has long been known from the coating of photographic films, Tonbändem and the like.
  • the material webs in these applications have a significantly smaller width than is the case in modern paper and paperboard production lines where web widths of more than 10 m are required.
  • Forming a uniformly thick application medium curtain over this width and being able to hold it in a stable manner is a task in which it is far from obvious to expect suggestions for a functional solution from the comparatively easy-to-control known narrow application medium curtains.
  • the webs move in modern paper and paperboard production lines at speeds of up to 3000 m / min, which is many times the speed at which the known narrow webs move, and also a further high load on the Stability of the application medium curtain.
  • a device of the type mentioned is known from DE 197 16 466 A1.
  • This document shows a device for applying dispersions to a material web by a so-called curtain coating application method.
  • application medium curtain depending on a commissioned work to the web extending edge guide element are arranged, which may be wetted depending on the embodiment of the application medium or not.
  • wetted edge guide elements the application medium curtain is stretched at its lateral edges by adhesive forces in the web direction.
  • these are designed as electrodes which generate an electric field which acts on the lateral edges of the application medium curtain such that it is stretched in the web direction.
  • a disadvantage of this prior art is that the application medium curtain can be influenced by said device only at its lateral edges. This can lead to unsatisfactory order results, especially in the working width center, especially for large working widths.
  • WO 97/03009 deals with the problem of drying material webs after the application of media, namely printing inks, especially in low-web offset and flexographic printing. It proposes ionizing the gas molecules at the surface of the web by means of a corona discharge and accelerating them towards an electrode in order to increase the drying efficiency by the gas exchange at the web surface which accompanies this "ion wind".
  • DE 1 98 03 240 A1 discloses a curtain coating application device which comprises a sensor device for detecting the amount of coating applied to the material web application medium layer and a control device for controlling the order quantity.
  • the order quantity is regulated via a change in the gap width of the application medium discharge gap at the commissioned unit.
  • EP 0 937 815 A1 shows an apparatus for applying a liquid or pasty application medium by a application medium jet, in which the application area can be increased or reduced by aperture elements which moves from the lateral edges of the application area in the material web transverse direction via application medium nozzles can be that the emanating from this order medium beam is intercepted by the aperture and does not reach the web.
  • the curtain coating process coating speeds at high curtain flow rates are limited by the formation of a so-called metastable region.
  • This metastable region is illustrated in column 3, lines 27-33 of US-A-5,609,923, in that at moderate to high flow rates in the application medium curtain, the coating speed at which air entrapment begins is higher than the rate at which it expands dissolves.
  • the coating is metastable to any perturbation that can lead to air entrapment. For practical purposes, therefore, these intermediate coating speeds can not be used.
  • WO-A-89/05477 solves the identical problem of entrapment of air bubbles by substantially identical means, namely the electrostatic charging of the running underground, and tries to give a scientific explanation for this: according to column 6, line 30 to page 7 , Line 1, of WO-A-89/05477, contributes a high level of electrostatic charging of the subsurface to a substantially attracting force acting in the appropriate direction in the area where the curtain impinges on the subsurface, thus allowing an increase in the running speed of the substrate, without affecting the coating success.
  • column US-A-5,122,386 states phenomenologically in column 3, lines 38-45 that by electrostatic charging of the running underground - here recommended immediately before the impact of the curtain on the ground - a running speed of the ground of up to 330 m / min is possible without air entrapment.
  • the document US-A-5,290,600 relates essentially to a device for the attachment of road markings.
  • this document does not relate to any apparatus for applying the application medium in the curtain-coating process, in which the application medium curtain moves substantially gravity-driven from the commissioned work to the ground.
  • the electric field is the driving force which provides for movement of the application medium from the commissioned work to the ground.
  • the electric field can at best be supported by gravity.
  • the electric field assisting the gravitational force in the acceleration of the application medium jet is generated in a simple manner in that the applicator unit is held at a first predetermined electrical potential, while the substrate is at a second predetermined electrical potential, for example ground or ground potential. can be held. In this case, no additional electrodes need to be provided, but it is sufficient to provide the existing devices with electrical connections.
  • the application medium jet moves in the applicator device according to the invention not only under the influence of gravity from the discharge nozzle to the ground. Rather, this movement is assisted by an additional force which is exerted by the field generation device on the application medium beam and seeks to stretch the beam on its way from the delivery nozzle to the ground (pre-stretch). Therefore, in the case of "curtain coating applicators", the stability of the jet can be increased either with the same distance between the dispensing nozzle and the substrate, or the distance between the dispensing nozzle and the substrate can be selected larger for a given desired jet stability.
  • the latter is advantageous, considering that the total extension of the coating medium from a jet thickness determined by the width of the dispensing nozzle to the thickness of the layer of coating medium ultimately applied to the substrate is the product of the pre-stretching of the jet on the path described above composed of the dispensing nozzle to the ground and the Needlesstrekkung, which stems from the difference between the speed of the beam immediately before hitting the ground and the running speed of the ground upon contact of the application medium with the ground.
  • the Actstrekkung composed as evenly as possible of pre-stretching and contact stretching.
  • an electrode assembly which is maintained at a predetermined electrical electrode assembly potential may be provided on the upstream side of the applicator and in the vicinity thereof. "In addition” means that both the commissioned work and the electrode arrangement are kept at a predetermined, different from the ground potential.
  • the object of the present invention is achieved according to a second aspect of the invention by the just described "alternative" provision of an electrode arrangement, namely by an application device having the features of claim 5.
  • a force is exerted by the electric field on the application medium beam, which has a component orthogonal to its direction of movement, i. E. the electrode assembly attracts the application medium beam.
  • This force component also helps to stabilize the application medium jet against the influence of the entrained air boundary layer on the surface of the substrate.
  • the electrode arrangement may comprise at least one flat electrode.
  • the flat electrode may have a plurality of protrusions or needle points on its side facing the ground.
  • the electrode arrangement may comprise a plurality of individual electrodes arranged in the transverse direction of the substrate, preferably needle electrodes.
  • a device for generating an electric field be provided downstream of the impact position of the application medium on the substrate.
  • This electric field exerts on the application medium applied to the substrate a force directed towards the ground, which leads to a displacement of the excess application medium at locations where too much application medium has been applied.
  • the further field-generating device has a further electrode arrangement adjacent to the substrate, which is preferably held at a further predetermined electrical potential.
  • Such a force, which is applied to the substrate and applied to the substrate, can in principle also result from residual charging of the application medium applied to the substrate as a consequence of discharges induced by the first electrode arrangement.
  • the predetermined electrical potential (s) other than the ground potential may have a value of between 5 kV and about 60 kV, preferably about 30 kV.
  • the substrate is preferably kept at ground potential.
  • a counter-element preferably a counter-roller, which supports the material web in the area of the applicator when directly applied or on the surface of which the applicator applies the application medium in the case of indirect application, is in contact with an electrode in order to apply it to hold the second predetermined electrical potential.
  • the electrode is in electrically conductive contact with a bearing shaft of the counter-roller.
  • another alternative is to hold the material web at the second predetermined electrical potential, that is to say preferably the ground potential, by means of an electrode designed, for example, as a web-guiding element.
  • the electrode arrangement in the running direction of the ground is arranged upstream of a device for weakening the entrained air boundary layer.
  • the air boundary layer weakening device may comprise a suction device with the aid of which the air boundary layer can be actively removed from the running underground.
  • a drag scraper which is in sliding contact with the substrate may be provided.
  • This drag scraper seals the suction towards the environment and hinders the further movement of the air boundary layer towards the commissioned work.
  • entrained in the air boundary layer air is dammed, which at least partially destroys the laminar nature of the flow of the air boundary layer. This facilitates the suction and increases the suction efficiency of the suction device.
  • the air boundary layer can be weakened by the inventively designed suction particularly effective, if not completely removed from the ground.
  • the drag scraper may be formed as a flexible film, preferably made of plastic, sheet metal or a composite material.
  • the flexible film nestles under the suction of the suction device against the ground, which on the one hand improves the seal and on the other prevents the construction of a new air boundary layer.
  • the drag scraper Made of sheet metal so preferably stainless steel sheet is used with a thickness of at most 0.1 mm.
  • drag scrapers of composite material with a surface coating made of Teflon have proven to be advantageous.
  • the composite ensures the required temperature resistance and flexibility, while the Teflon surface coating ensures low friction between the drag scraper and the running surface.
  • the drag scraper can be curved in the direction of rotation, which facilitates the elastic evasion and further reduces the friction with the ground.
  • a further electrode arrangement be provided in the region of the suction device, preferably between the downstream end of the suction device and the drag scraper.
  • the entrained air boundary layer can be influenced and in particular weakened.
  • the further electrode arrangement comprises a plurality of individual electrodes arranged in the transverse direction of the substrate, preferably needle electrodes, or if the further electrode arrangement comprises at least one flat electrode which has a plurality of projections or needle tips on its side facing towards the ground there are also discharge processes between the tips of the further electrode arrangement and the substrate.
  • the further electrode arrangement have a distance of between about 2 mm and about 30 mm from the substrate.
  • the further electrode arrangement can in principle be connected to an external power supply. However, it is also possible, and structurally even easier to realize, when the electrical potential of the further electrode arrangement is suspended ("floating potential"). In this case, as a result of the discharges emanating from the first electrode arrangement, the further electrode arrangement is charged and thus likewise brought to a potential which differs from the ground potential. To reduce the capacity of the further electrode arrangement as well as for safety reasons, it is proposed that the further electrode arrangement on the suction device is arranged so as to be electrically insulated from it.
  • the surface tension of the application medium attempts to reduce the surface of the application medium jet, which has an effect, in particular, in the region of the side edges of the application medium jet and results in jet narrowing.
  • This beam narrowing can be prevented by the provision of edge guiding elements, since in this case additional adhesion forces act between the application medium and the surface of the edge guiding elements, which resist the tendency of the surface tension of the application medium to be constricted.
  • the object of the invention is therefore achieved by a device having the features of claim 27.
  • the edge guide elements For reasons of good wetting of the edge guide elements, they have a structured surface.
  • the surface of at least one edge guide element has a toothed surface, for example in the form of an external thread or else an internal thread.
  • the adhesion between the edge guide elements and the application medium can be improved by selecting the surface properties of at least one edge guide element such that the wetting or contact angle dependent on the properties of the application medium and the surface of the edge guide elements is less than 90 °.
  • the edge guide elements may be made of glass or metal, for example, since these materials have a sufficiently high surface tension. For metals, however, it should be noted that some metals tend to adsorb water vapor from the surrounding atmosphere, lowering their surface tension to the value of the adsorbed water layer.
  • At least one edge guide element is displaceably arranged in the transverse direction of the substrate and / or that the angle which an edge guide element encloses with the vertical is adjustable.
  • the angular adjustability may include pivoting the free ends of the edge guide elements in the transverse direction and / or in the longitudinal direction.
  • the effect of the edge guide elements can also be improved by the provision of an electric field, for example by providing an electrode in the vicinity of at least one of the edge guide elements, preferably substantially parallel thereto, which is held at a predetermined electrical potential.
  • an applicator device is generally designated 10. It comprises a curtain applicator 12 with a dispensing nozzle 14, is discharged from the application medium 16 in the form of a curtain 18 to a moving in the direction L substrate U.
  • the substrate U is in the illustrated embodiment, the surface 20a of a web 20, which wraps around the peripheral surfaces of a support roller 22 in the field of applicator 12 partially.
  • the application medium 16 On its way from the dispensing nozzle 14 to the substrate U, the application medium 16 is accelerated. This leads to a reduction in the thickness of the curtain 18 from the value D in the region of the dispensing nozzle 14 to the value d immediately before the impact position P on the substrate U (pre-stretch). Due to the difference between the speed of the application medium curtain 18 immediately before the impact position P and the running speed of the substrate U, the application medium 16 is stretched again when hitting the substrate U, so that the application layer 24 applied to the substrate U finally has the thickness s (Contact stretching). The total extension of the application medium 16 results as a product of the stretch factors of pre-stretch and contact stretch.
  • the application medium 16 when hitting the substrate U is usually stretched more than on the way from the discharge nozzle 14 to the substrate U, since with regard to a stable curtain 18 as possible, the drop distance between the discharge nozzle 14 and substrate U not arbitrarily large can. Excessive contact stretching, however, adversely affects the uniformity of the coating layer 24 applied to the substrate U.
  • the applicator 10 now offers a way by which you can either increase the Vorstreckung of the curtain 18 at the same drop height between the dispensing nozzle 14 and substrate U and how to reduce the drop height between dispensing nozzle 14 and substrate U and thus the curtain at the same Vorstreckung 18 can stabilize.
  • the application medium curtain 18 on its way from the discharge nozzle 14 to the substrate U is not left solely to gravity, but electrostatic forces are additionally exerted thereon.
  • This strengthening of the curtain 18 stretching forces has, as the surface tension of the application medium 16, which seeks to contract the curtain 18 in order to reduce the surface thereof, constant, a higher stability of the application medium curtain 18 result.
  • the electrostatic forces could be provided by applying a first predetermined electrical voltage V 1 to the housing of the applicator 12 and the support roller 22 on the

  • a force is exerted on the curtain 18 due to the discharges E but also a force which has a component orthogonal to its falling movement direction. This force component also helps to stabilize the application medium curtain 18 from the influence of the air boundary layer G entrained on the surface of the material web 20.

  • a drag scraper 36 is provided on the outlet side of this suction box 34 which is in sliding contact with the surface 20a of the material web 20 and seals the suction region of the suction box 34 on the outlet side.
  • the drag scraper 36 may be made of, for example, a Teflon coated composite. by virtue of the use of a composite material, the Schlepp scraper 36 has sufficient temperature resistance and flexibility, and due to the surface coating with Teflon sufficient low friction.
  • a further electrode arrangement 40 is now provided between this drag scraper 36 and the suction box 34, which is attached to the suction box 34 via an electrical insulation 42.

  • the electrode arrangement 40 can in principle be connected to an external power supply. In the illustrated embodiment, however, it is in a floating state in terms of its electrical potential, but is charged as a result of discharges E emanating from the electrode assembly 30 and thus also brought to a potential different from the ground potential.
  • the charging of the electrode assembly 40 is sufficient to allow discharges e to occur between the tips of the electrode assembly 40 and the substrate U. These discharges e disturb the laminar flow of the air boundary layer G and at least partially convert it into a turbulent flow. This facilitates the extraction of the air boundary layer G from the surface 20a of the web and thus improves the effectiveness of the suction box 34.
