Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for printing material and printing unit cooling by means of cooled blown air on sheet-fed rotary printing presses according to the preamble of the first claim. It is generally known to arrange driers on or between the printing units and in the delivery area to support the drying and curing process of printing inks and in particular lacquers. Large quantities of heat are emitted primarily (infrared dryer) or secondary (UV dryer) to the printing material and the printing machine assemblies adjacent to the dryer.
  • the amount of heat given off by convection or radiation and not used for the drying process is considered to be a disturbance for the printing process and the sheet deposit (impairment of the pressure in the subsequent printing unit, excessive stacking temperature, damage to thermally sensitive substrates) and also affects the functioning of neighboring machine elements if they are heat inadmissible.
  • all materials in the dryer area must be extremely heat-resistant (cables, hoses, sensors, pneumatic cylinders, etc.).
  • a suction device for discharging heated air from the dryer area in the sheet delivery is known, which, however, does not cool the sheet guide surfaces heated by radiation.
  • Baffles are described for guiding sheets in the effective range of dryers, on the underside of which coolant channels are arranged (for example DE 19810387 C1).
  • their cooling effect is limited to the baffle, cooling of the adjacent machine parts or the substrate cannot be achieved with it.
  • the use of cooled blown air for printing plate cooling is known, for example, from EP 0480230 A1 and cylinder cooling by means of blown air from DE 4326835 A1.
  • the blown air cooling according to EP 0480230 A1 has a combination of fans and controlled cooler, which is only provided for the pressure plate cooling and is designed as a gap nozzle with a correspondingly small effective range.
  • DE 4202544 A1 and DE 4326835 A1 show additional blown air cooling beams with a partial cooling air circuit for rubber or plate cylinders which are not suitable for sheet guiding.
  • the mentioned blown air cooling systems have the disadvantages in common that they are additional Require installation space that gives access to the machine assemblies when cleaning or Set-up actions additionally complicate, and they are each only for special cooling tasks designed. In general, the one remaining along the arch path is sufficient Space between dryers, sheet guiding devices, washing devices or car register devices also not out for effective cooling of both the heated machine elements as well as the substrates exposed to the dryers.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of providing a device which is minimal Space requirements for both the substrates and those from the dryers are undesirable with effectively heated machine elements.
  • the solution according to the invention uses the existing along the entire arch path pneumatic sheet guide elements before and after the printing zone, below the transfer and Turning drums and in the delivery area through integration of cooling devices for the Cooling air generation and supply to the printing material and the blowing air flowing out for the convective cooling of the heated machine areas, so that substrate and printing machine be effectively cooled along the entire arch path.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic representation of the sheet-guiding cylinders of two pressure or Coating units of a sheet-fed rotary printing press in series, between which there are a transfer drum 3 is located. From the upstream printing unit and from the downstream printing unit are only the printing cylinders 2, 4 and those interacting therewith Rubber cylinder 1; 5 shown. Along the arch path are depending Print job and machine configuration arranged pneumatic sheet guiding devices, of which the sheet guiding devices 7, 9, 10, 11 are shown as examples.
  • blow box 7 which prevents the printed sheets from smearing on the air cushion plate 8.
  • the sheet is smoothly applied to the printing cylinder 4 with the aid of a blow box 9 and, depending on the printing material thickness, of additional blow pipes 10.1, 10.2.
  • a UV ink or varnish is applied in the upstream printing unit, then the sheet is dried with the aid of an intermediate dryer 12, which is arranged between printing zone 1, 2 and sheet transfer area 2, 3. It is either an infrared dryer or a UV dryer. It is known from the prior art to provide blown air cooling 11 for cooling the sheet after passing through the dryer 12.
  • the cooling device is arranged within blown air boxes in the suction and / or blown air flow from fans or is assigned to the blown air flow from blown pipes and is designed as a cooling register with cooling surfaces through which liquid flows.
  • the cooling medium can be water, cooling brine or a gas, the coolant flow being adjustable. With an appropriate design, the cooling surfaces can simultaneously serve as guiding surfaces for the desired blowing air guidance on the sheet guiding device.
  • a cooling device 6.1 is arranged in the blown air flow of a fan 6.2 which supplies the air cushion sheet 8 with blown air, the cooling surfaces advantageously being in the form of lamellar air guiding elements according to FIG.
  • a cooling device 6.1 can be assigned to each fan 6.2 in a modular manner, these also being connected to one another with their coolant supply and return flows to form a circuit can.
  • cooling surfaces In the case of a plurality of fans 6.2 arranged side by side, it may be expedient to to arrange the cooling surfaces next to each other parallel to the sheet transport direction, the outer contour of the cooling surfaces of the shape of the blow box 7 is approximated. Because the cooling surfaces can extend over almost the entire inner volume of the blow box 7, high cooling capacity is therefore transferable.
  • Blower tubes 10.1, 10.2 assigned cooling devices 20 have cooling surface rows with coolant channels 21 which extend in the direction of the blasting jet, the cooling surfaces being of compact design due to the small installation space generally available for blowing tubes and their contour being shaped in accordance with the arc path.
  • the cooling surfaces also serve as a holder for the blowpipes 10.1, 10.2.
  • An arrangement of guide rods 19 in the effective area of cooling surfaces, as shown by way of example for the sheet guiding device 13 after the printing zone 1, 2 has the advantage that they do not have to be cooled by separate cooling (as, for example, according to DE 19829383). Instead of guide rods, cooling surfaces of the cooling device 13.
  • FIG. 3 shows a sheet guiding device 15, 16 according to the invention in the delivery directly in the dryer zone 14, which can also be present in several modules.
  • a cooling register 15.1 in the blown air flow of a fan 15.2 which supplies blown air to the blow box 16, wherein a plurality of fans 15.2 and cooling register 15.1 can also be arranged in a row at right angles to the transport direction on the blow box 16.
  • the dryers 14 above the arch path can be equipped with a suction device 22 for discharging the warm air rising from the dryers 14 and for shielding surrounding printing machine elements before the heat scatter radiation of the dryers 14.
  • the blown air cooled in the cooling devices 6.1,9.1,11.1,13.1,15.1 flows through the sheet guiding devices and initially cools the guiding surfaces facing the sheet.
  • the air cushion generated outside the sheet guiding devices 6, 9, 11, 13, 15 cools the sheet and the drum or cylinder surface and thus protects the sheet from thermal deformation or damage.
  • the surrounding machine elements are also convectively cooled.
  • the air box 7 is particularly effective. Due to its expansion, it cools the sheets very effectively and distributes the cooling air evenly before it flows into the neighboring printing units for the purpose of temperature control.
  • the exposure time and cooling capacity can thus be increased by a factor of 4 compared to conventional blown air cooling devices.
  • the arrangement of the sheet guiding devices 13, 20 according to the invention can furthermore advantageously be chosen according to FIG. 2 in such a way that they shield the cylinder surfaces from heat scatter radiation from the dryers and thus cause an additional, secondary cooling effect.
