Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a rotary press for depositing patterns of a material on a strip substrate, comprising a working cylinder bearing pictures of the patterns of said material to be deposited and a counter cylinder, means for driving the working cylinder in rotation, means for heating and controlling the temperature of this working cylinder, means for exerting a determined prestress between said cylinder work and said counter-cylinder and free rolling means between said counter-cylinder and its pivot shaft.
  • This type of press compared to flat stamping lies in being able to work continuously at significantly faster speed high than with flat stamping.
  • the gases resulting from the vaporization of the wax between the polyester carrier strip and the metal film more easily evacuated and the consumption of strip material at filing can be significantly reduced.
  • this material generally made by a laminate composed of four layers, a polyester support strip, a layer of wax, a metallic film and a layer of glue is expensive.
  • the strip of material must also not pass through the rotary press according to a traditional trajectory, but according to a trajectory practically straight. Indeed, with the traditional trajectory, the band of material to be deposited and the strip substrate on which the pattern of the material was deposited remain against each other and are pressed against the counter-cylinder on a certain angle of this counter cylinder after passing between the cylinders of the rotary press, to increase the contact time and facilitate the fixing of the pattern deposited on the substrate.
  • This traditional way of crossing limits substantially the possibility of saving a strip of material to be deposited, in the extent to which the substrate and the strip of material have to move together.
  • the average temperature of the working cylinder of the rotary press must be higher and the permissible temperature differences are narrower as in the flat stamping, as well as in the case of the rotary press with traditional passage, which was discussed above.
  • the temperature need to be precisely controlled, but it the pressure applied between the press cylinders and the spacing between these cylinders to allow the passage of the substrate in strip, the support strip for the pattern material to be deposited and the plate are also fine-tuned, without the setting of one influencing the setting of the other. It is also important that the clearance between the cylinders, in which pass the substrate, the support strip of the material to be deposited and the plate (s) is constant and does not change when the temperature of the working cylinder increases.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to provide a solution allowing to contribute, at least to a certain extent, to a use optimum of the material support strip to be deposited on a strip substrate while maintaining precise adjustment of the operating parameters of the press.
  • the present invention relates to a rotary press to deposit patterns of a material on a strip substrate, such as defined in claim 1.
  • the preload adjustment between the cylinders of the press, to deposit patterns on a strip substrate from the material carried by the support strip is completely independent of the adjustment of the clearance between the cylinders, so that these two parameters can be fine-tuned. It is all the more important that the support strip has practically a rectilinear trajectory at through the cylinders, minimizing the contact time between the two bands during the pattern filing operation.
  • the straight or substantially straight passage of the strip support of the material to be deposited through the press cylinders is the condition to allow modulation of the speed of this band support between the deposit of two successive patterns and thus a use optimal support band.
  • the rotary press comprises a frame 1 on which a working cylinder 2 is mounted, the respective ends of which are fixed to the frame 1 by fixing members 3, each provided with a clamping screw 3a.
  • a counter-cylinder 4, parallel to the working cylinder 2, is pivoted freely on a rocker 5 pivotally mounted on the frame 1 around an axis 6 parallel to the axis of cylinders 2 and 4.
  • a cylinder 7 is used to press the counter-cylinder 4 against the cylinder working 2, with a determined prestressing force, through a lever 7a acting on the rocker 5 and capable of increasing the pressure exerted by the jack 7.
  • FIG. 2 shows how the pressure of the jack 7 is transmitted between the working cylinder 2 and the counter-cylinder 4. This pressure is symbolized by two arrows F 1 , F 2 .
  • the counter-cylinder 4 is pivotally mounted around two half-shafts 8 coaxial by ball bearings 9.
  • Two cylindrical rings 10 are mounted on two eccentric portions 11 of the respective half-shafts 8 by ball bearings 12.
  • the cylindrical rings 10 are in rolling contact with two cylindrical surfaces 2a integral with the working cylinder 2.
  • These cylindrical rings 10 and the cylindrical surfaces 2a, forming the contact surfaces between the working cylinder 2 and the counter-cylinder 4, allow the preload exerted by the jack 7 to be transmitted while leaving a clearance 13 between the working cylinder 2 and the counter-cylinder 4 for the passage of a strip substrate 14 and one or more strips support 15 of the pattern material to be deposited on the substrate 14.
  • This set 13 is chosen so that the preload exerted and the temperature of the working cylinder 2 allow to heat transfer the patterns of the material of the support strip 15 on the strip substrate 14 during the passage of the plates 16 in the set 13 separating the two cylinders 2, 4.
  • One of the cylindrical rings 10 is integral with a toothed wheel 10a which meshes with a toothed wheel 2b secured to the working cylinder 2.
  • the toothed wheel 10a is engaged with a drive motor (not shown) via an LM motor link.
  • each half-shaft 8 The external ends of each half-shaft 8 are integral a toothed wheel 17 engaged with an endless screw 18 secured to a reference conical 19, connected to a handle (not shown) for adjusting the clearance 13; it is also possible to influence the clearance 13 as on one side of the roller 2 and create a slightly progressive clearance 13 across the width of strip 14.
  • This system can also be replaced by two motors each acting on one worm 18.
  • the rotation of the half shafts 8 by a certain angle causes the eccentrics 11 around the axis of the coaxial half-shafts 8, thus modifying the clearance 13 between the working cylinder 2 and the counter-cylinder 4, without modifying the value of the prestressing exerted on cylinders 2 and 4 via cylindrical contact surfaces 2a and 10.
  • the outer layer of the support strips 15, adjacent to the strip substrate 14 on which the patterns are deposited is formed of a thermosetting adhesive. This is the reason why the cylinder working 2 must include heating means.
  • FIG. 3 shows the interior of the working cylinder 2 which comprises, a heating chamber 20 formed by a tubular part 21 in contact thermal with the working cylinder 2.
  • This heating enclosure 20 is closed at both ends by flanges 22, the center of which is integral of a pivoting cylinder 23 coaxial with the axis of the working cylinder 2.
  • One of these pivoting cylinders 23 (the one on the left in FIG. 3) is crossed by an axial duct 24 divided into two concentric conduits 24a, 24b by a tubular wall 25a of a swivel connector 25, intended to connect the enclosure of heater 20 to a heater oil circuit (not shown).
  • the interior of the heating chamber 20 is divided into several compartments by concentric tubular partitions 26, provided with perforations 26a to form a back and forth flow of the heating fluid between the inlet channel 24a and the output channel 24b.
  • the part tubular 21 of the heating enclosure 20 and the closing flanges 22 of the ends of these enclosures are made of different metals such as steel for the external parts such as the external cylindrical part of the working cylinder 2, and the closing flanges 22 and aluminum for the heating chamber 20.
  • these surfaces 21a, 22a are of conical shape with a half angle ⁇ at the top of these contact surfaces conics 21a, 22a corresponding to the angle of the hypotenuse of a triangle rectangle whose other sides correspond to thermal expansion longitudinal of a given point of one of said contact surfaces (21a, 22a) relative to the median axis M of said temperature heating chamber 20 given, respectively to the radial expansion of this same point at the same temperature, so that the contact surfaces 21a, 22a remain contiguous whatever the temperature of the cylindrical heating enclosure 20.
  • the angle ⁇ is determined for each particular case.
  • this resultant is the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose sides dr 22 and dl 22 are proportional to the radial expansions, respectively longitudinal, which depend on the respectively longitudinal radial dimensions of a given point. These radial and longitudinal dimensions vary according to the coefficient of expansion of the material, but their ratio and therefore the angle of the hypotenuse is constant.
  • two O-ring seals 27 are arranged nearby of the two edges of the conical contact surface 22a of the flanges of closure 22 with the adjacent conical surface 21a of the tubular part 21 of the heating chamber 20.
  • a plate 16 can be inserted and fixed by means 30 in a support tube 31 which can be slid over the cylinder work 2. Parts 31 and 2 can also be the same. Plate 16 can be provided with blind holes 32, of variable dimensions and distributions, connected or not by holes 33 favoring the escape of air during changes of temperature. This will create effective air pockets and brakes in the process heat.
  • Clichés can be placed on shims 34, which will incidentally allow to adjust their active radius Ra in small values.
  • These wedges 34 may or may not be provided with holes again variable distributions and diameters. It can also be blind holes.
  • the images of the holes 32, 35 can be aligned or not.
  • Wedge 35 can be also made of insulating material, resistant to temperature. We can also consider the use of shrink-wrapped materials (pressed from powder). In summary, we can slow the flow of energy through one or more shots compared to others.
  • Figure 5 also shows a proposed arrangement for this attachment.
  • a shim 30, in insulating material or not, allows the plate 16 to be trapped positively against the left shoulder 36, ensuring its exact repositioning in case of alterations.
  • the controlled elasticity of the part 30 allows the expansions differential thermal between parts 31 and 16.
  • FIG. 6 shows that it is possible to provide variants of fixing where a change in thickness of the shim 34 does not cause angular displacement of plate 16. This is obtained by the appropriate orientation of the reference face 37. This orientation, parallel to the central line 38 of the cliché, however leads to additional fixation, for example screw 39.
