Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and a device used therefor for curtain coating, in which a free-falling liquid curtain of at least a layer is applied to a continuously moving web-shaped carrier material.
  • curtain coating processes are becoming increasingly important due to their numerous advantages, in addition to being able to simultaneously multiple layers of different Apply coating liquids, also extraordinar surface properties count the applied coatings.
  • the curtain coating processes become for the production of photographic papers and magnetic recording papers but also increasingly of other possible applications the curtain coating method, for example for the production of heat and pressure sensitive recording materials, ink jet receiving media and pigment coated recording materials.
  • the so-called Schlitzg teller in which the Coating liquid through a downward, across the to be coated web-shaped carrier material arranged outlet gap emerges and there directly forms the free falling liquid curtain, and the so-called Gleit vomg screener.
  • the coating liquid is first inclined downwards Abandoned sliding surface, where the liquid in a thin film under the influence of Gravity flows down the sliding surface and at the end of the free-falling liquid curtain formed.
  • the web to be coated by curtain coating techniques is directed slightly downwards between two guide rolls located in front of and behind the wetting line by a knife located some distance in front of the wetting line.
  • the knife forms an airtight shield for the air entrained by the material web to the liquid curtain and is thus intended to permanently prevent the disturbing influences of the oriented in the direction of the liquid curtain air movements.
  • Another embodiment provides a hollow, open at the bottom knife, with the additional air can be sucked.
  • the dust particles generated by the friction-intensive contact of the web surface with the knife which collect on the knife front side, be carried along by the web to the wetting line and thus cause coating defects.
  • another coating is to be applied, for example, to form a protective layer, this proposal is not useful because due to the friction between the web surface and knife streaking is observed in the recording layer.
  • EP-A-0 440 279 discloses an apparatus for carrying out the curtain coating method in which an impairment of the formed liquid curtain is to be avoided by using a combination of air shield without air supply and exhaust devices with a downstream brush.
  • the brush is much more effective in terms of a reduction of the wetting line oriented toward air flow than the air shield.
  • Further embodiments provide for the arrangement of a plurality of rows of brushes, if appropriate in combination with, in particular, brushes mounted in front, running across the material web plastic strips as Heilstrombrecher before. As the examples listed show, with the known device a uniform coating thickness can be achieved, but with an obviously necessary strong restriction to much too low production speeds of 200-230 m / min. The discussed document gives no indication of air handling systems to be used in the device.
  • the object is achieved by a curtain coating process, in a free-falling liquid curtain from at least one layer to a continuous moved web-shaped carrier material is applied, wherein, in the direction of movement the web-shaped carrier material, the entrained by the carrier material Air in front of the wetting line by at least two rows of brushes Construction with resting on the substrate bristle hair from the web-shaped Striped carrier material and sucked through an air suction, and wherein the air suction device is integrated between the at least two rows of brushes is.
  • the process causes the air entrained by the carrier material to be in front of the wetting line is discharged, which is why a continuous air removal is preferred. It also proves to be an advantage if the brush construction at least over the full width of the web-shaped carrier material expands, so as an air discharge over the full width of the substrate is made possible.
  • the inventive method is particularly well suited if the carrier material a heat-sensitive or a pressure-sensitive recording layer.
  • the method according to the invention makes it possible to carry out a further coating for example, to form a protective layer on the heat or pressure sensitive Recording materials even at higher production speeds with over 500 m / min and preferably with over 800 m / min, without the liquid curtain is significantly distorted by the entrained by the carrier material air.
  • the invention of the underlying novel device is characterized in that in Direction of movement of the web-shaped carrier material seen before the wetting line a construction comprising at least two brush rows is arranged, the rows of brushes Bristle hair own, which rest on the web-shaped carrier material are provided, and wherein the construction comprises an air suction device, the between the rows of brushes are integrated.
  • the device according to the invention is very helpful for cleaning the carrier material before it is coated.
  • first row of brushes whirls the loose dust, which has, for example, on the substrate top, existing unbonded pigments and Faserfeinmaterial on.
  • the air suction device detects this dust and discharges it, which is why a dust filter integrated in the suction device is advantageous.
  • second row of brushes prevents the dust raised by the first row of brushes can penetrate to the wetting line and also allows a second surface cleaning of the substrate.
  • the bristle hairs may preferably be arranged in bundles which are located on the bristle holder lower edge have a circular cross section whose diameter is in Extended direction of the surface of the substrate to be coated, so that the Bundles have a frustoconical design, without the invention to a Such training of the brush or brush row would be limited.
  • bristle materials are possible.
  • the rows of bristles comprise brush hair made of synthetic material such as polyester or polypropylene, wherein bristles hair made of polyamide are particularly preferred.
  • the bristle hair of the rows of brushes have a maximum thickness of 0.2 mm and preferably 0.1 mm.
  • the distance of the dirt trap lip to the web-shaped carrier material in a range between 0.5 and 2 mm is such a small distance but only possible if the web in the area of the dirt trap lip particularly little tends to flutter, which in particular in a circular guided or at a means Guiding rollers support carrier material web is given.
  • the structurally comparable the dirt trap lip is constructed and, in the direction of movement of the carrier material seen before the first row of brushes is arranged.
  • Materials to build the air flow tab metal or plastic call could Range between 0.5 and 2 mm are recognized as particularly effective.
  • the bristle shakers sit on guide rails and together with them Make brush heads.
  • the guide rails of the brush heads are in register in associated Bürstenkoptlialterungen. To replace soiled or damaged Brush heads become these laterally from the receiving brush head holders pulled out, followed by the insertion of the new brush heads by lateral Push.
  • a further embodiment provides that at least two brush designs To sit in a star shape around the central axis of a type Revo (vermagazin Replacing soiled or damaged rows of brushes will be the appropriate first brush construction from a working position around the turret central axis twisted into the at least one maintenance position, while the at least second Brush construction is rotated in the working position.
  • the brushes lie as in the previous paragraphs described on the web-shaped carrier material and cause according to the task Dissipation of entrained by the carrier air in front of the wetting line.
  • the corresponding the front standing paragraph also preferred in this embodiment Brush heads consisting of guide rails with bristle holders seated thereon, If necessary, they can be exchanged in the maintenance position of the brush constructions become.
  • the rows of brushes are preferably to be aligned so that they an imaginary line that is perpendicular to the substrate standing to the center of the lower edge of the bristle holder, enclose an angle ⁇ of -30 ° to + 10 °.
  • the bristle hairs point in the direction of the wetting line, while a positive Setting an orientation opposite to the direction of movement of the substrate means.
  • the device according to the invention is optionally in the form of a curved, to the radius a sheet-shaped carrier material leading counter roller adapted air shield or in the form of a rectilinear, guided on the rectilinear, optionally with Rolls or comparable construction materials supported web-shaped carrier material Seated construction executed without being limited thereto.
