Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and apparatus for manufacturing and handling panels.
  • the invention relates to insulating panels of the type comprising an external skin and an internal backing with an insulating core therebetween.
  • GB-A-2227712, GB-A-2257086 and GB-A-2338448 describe methods and apparatus for manufacturing insulating panels.
  • GB-A-2325645 describes the manufacture of an insulating panel comprising a profiled external skin, an internal backing tray and an insulating core between the external skin and internal backing tray. The backing tray and foam core are cut and panels are separated by clamping the leading and trailing panels.
  • This invention is therefore directed towards providing an improved method and apparatus for producing panels of high quality and for efficient manufacturing and handling of such panels.
  • a method for manufacturing a composite insulating panel of the type comprising an external skin, an internal backing tray and an insulating core therebetween, the method comprising the steps of:-
  • the trailing end of the leading panel and the leading end of the trailing panel are cleaned substantially simultaneously.
  • the method comprises de-burring the external skin and/or internal backing tray.
  • the de-burring may be carried out by drawing a blade across the face of the external skin and/or backing tray.
  • the external skin and/or backing tray is de-burred while cleaning of the trailing end of the leading panel and the leading end of the trailing panel.
  • the trailing end of the leading panel and the leading end of the trailing panel are cleaned by drawing brush means across the ends of the panels.
  • the brush means may be provided on a cleaning carriage and the method comprises the step, after separation of the panels, of extending the carriage from a retracted position into an extended position in the gap between the trailing end of the leading panel and the leading end of the trailing panel.
  • the method comprises driving the cleaning carriage across the gap between the trailing end of the leading panel and the leading end of the trailing panel.
  • the method comprises raising the carriage from the gap on traversing of the ends of the adjacent panels.
  • the method comprises cleaning the upper and/or lower faces of the panel.
  • the panel may be led over a lower face cleaning brush and leading the panel over an upper face cleaning brush.
  • the panel is led over the face cleaning brush means after end cleaning.
  • the method comprises moving the upper face cleaning brush from a retracted disengaged position to an engaged position in which the brush is engaged with the upper face of the panel.
  • the invention also provides an insulated panel whenever manufactured by a method of the invention.
  • an apparatus for manufacturing a composite insulating panel of the type comprising and external skin, an internal backing tray and an insulating core therebetween, the apparatus comprising:-
  • the cleaning means is adapted for cleaning the trailing end of the leading panel and the leading end of the trailing panel substantially simultaneously.
  • the apparatus comprises de-burring means for de-burring the external skin and/or internal backing tray.
  • the de-burring means comprises a blade which is drawn across the face of the external skin and/or backing tray.
  • de-burring means and the cleaning means are mounted on a common carriage.
  • the cleaning means comprises brush means which are drawn across the ends of the panels.
  • the apparatus comprises a cleaning carriage which is extendable from a retracted position into an extended position in the gap between the trailing end of the leading panel and the leading end of the trailing panel.
  • the apparatus comprises means for raising the carriage from the gap on traversing of the ends of the adjacent panels.
  • the apparatus comprises panel face cleaning means for cleaning the upper and/or lower faces of the panel.
  • the panel face cleaning means comprises a lower face cleaning brush and an upper face cleaning brush.
  • the upper face cleaning brush is movable from a retracted disengaged position to an engaged position in which the brush is engaged with the upper face of the panel.
  • an insulated panel length 1 of the type having an external skin, an internal backing tray and an insulating core between the external skin and backing tray.
  • a continuous length of panel 1 is formed and delivered to a cutting station 2 at which the panel 1 is cut to a desired length by a cross-cut saw 4.
  • the panel is cut to provide a leading panel 10 with a trailing end 11 and a trailing panel 12 having a leading end 13.
  • a first clamp comprising a first upper clamping head 20 and a first lower clamping head 21 grips the leading panel 10.
  • a second clamp comprising a second upper clamping head 22 and a second lower clamping head 23 grips the trailing panel 12.
  • the first and second clamps are mounted on separate carriages 24, 25 which are moved apart as illustrated in Fig. 3 to separate the panels 10, 12 at the joint.
  • the trailing end 11 of the leading panel 10 is separated from the leading end 13 of the trailing panel 13.
  • the end faces have a rough finish after the cutting process and may be contaminated by metal shards, and dust of foam material.
  • the cleaning apparatus comprises a cleaning carriage 50 which is mounted for vertical movement in the direction of the arrows A, for example by a ram.
  • the carriage 50 is also movable in the direction of the arrows B transversely of the panels 10, 12 along tracks 51 for movement of the carriage 50 across the gap between the separated panels 10, 12.
  • the carriage 50 is moved from the raised inactive position of Figs. 5 and 10 to the extended or lowered active position of Figs. 7 and 8 and is then driven across the gap created between the panels 10, 12 to clean the end faces 11, 13. Material removed on cleaning is collected in lower collection hoppers 52 to prevent contamination in the region of the panels.
  • the carriage 50 carries a leading panel cleaning head 55 and a trailing panel cleaning head 56.
  • the leading panel head 55 has pairs of upper and lower brushes 60, 61 and de-burring knives 63 between the pair of upper brushes 60.
  • the trailing panel cleaning head 56 has pairs of upper and lower brushes 63, 64 and de-burring knives 65 between the upper brushes 63.
  • the brushes 60, 61, 63, 64 brush off debris from the ends 11, 13 of the panels 10, 12 and the knives 63, 65 drag on the uppermost metal edge of the panels, removing metal shards.
  • the lowermost metal edge of the panels may be similarly de-burred.
  • the carriage 50 After end cleaning the carriage 50 is lifted back up to the inactive position, the panels 10, 12 travel to the next station at which the faces of the panel are cleaned and the cutting, cleaning and de-burring station is ready for the next panel.
  • the panel is led over a lower face cleaning brush 80 and under an upper face cleaning brush 81 at a panel face cleaning station 85.
  • the brushes 80, 81 are provided in the form of belts that brush across the faces 70, 71 of the panel 10 as the panel travels along a conveyer 86. Debris is brushed into inlets 87 of a vacuum removal system 88. Both the upper and lower face cleaning brushes 80, 81 are movable from a raised to a lowered position by any suitable means such as a ram.
  • the invention provides a highly optimised process for producing insulating panels in which the panel is cut to a desired length in-line, the end faces are cleaned and de-burred and the panel faces are cleaned in-line without interrupting the production panel flow. Substantially clean faces are provided which assists in optimising use of the panels and preventing damage caused by loose metal shards or debris which may damage the panel faces or ends.
