Abstract

Production of ceramic objects (12), especially beakers, cups, etc., comprises a first step in which at least one ceramic object is cast in a casting mold (14) having a top mold (16) and a bottom mold and then pressed. In a second step the casting mold is opened, the top mold is moved laterally into a flushing position, and a suction removal device (20) is moved from a lateral waiting position into a suction position to remove the ceramic object from the bottom mold. In a third step the suction removal device is moved laterally with the ceramic object into a jet washing position in which the ceramic object is jet washed. The top mold is simultaneously moved back into the casting position, the casting mold is closed and a new casting process is started. In a fourth step the suction removal device is moved into a discharge position and the ceramic object is transferred to a transport device (32). In a fifth step the suction removal device is moved back into the waiting position and remains in this position until the renewed casting and pressing process has ended. An Independent claim is also included for a device (10) used for producing ceramic objects and comprising a top mold and a bottom mold.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von Keramikgegenständen, insbesondere von Bechern, Tassen o.dgl., wobei in einem ersten Verfahrensschritt mindestens ein Keramikgegenstand in einer eine Oberform und eine Unterform aufweisenden Gießform gegossen und abschließend gepreßt wird, sowie eine Vorrichtung zur Durchführung dieses Verfahrens.The invention relates to a method for producing ceramic objects, in particular of cups, cups or the like, being in a first process step at least one ceramic object in an upper mold and a lower mold having casting mold is poured and finally pressed, and a Device for performing this method.

Aus der DE 100 03 325 A1 ist eine Antriebs- bzw. Schließvorrichtung insbesondere für ein Formteil wie die Oberform einer Gießform bekannt, wobei das Formteil mit einer Vorschubspindel verbunden ist, die durch eine Spindelmutter durchgeschraubt ist. Die Vorschubspindel ist mittels eines Spindelantriebs hoher Drehzahl und niedrigen Drehmomentes und die Spindelmutter ist mittels eines Mutterantriebs niedriger Drehzahl und hohen Drehmoments antreibbar. Damit ist es möglich, die Gießform schnell zu schließen und am Ende des Gießprozesses auf den gegossenen Keramikgegenstand einen gewünschten hohen Preßdruck auszuüben.DE 100 03 325 A1 describes a drive or closing device especially known for a molded part such as the upper mold of a casting mold, wherein the molded part is connected to a feed spindle, which by a Spindle nut is screwed. The feed spindle is by means of a High speed and low torque spindle drive Spindle nut is low speed and high by means of a nut drive Torque can be driven. This makes it possible to quickly close the mold and at the end of the casting process onto the cast ceramic object exert desired high pressure.

Nach dem Öffnen der Gießform wird die Oberform gereinigt, d.h. mit einer Flüssigkeit, vorzugsweise mit Wasser, gespült. Der aus der Gießform entnommene Keramikgegenstand darf jedoch mit der Spülflüssigkeit, d.h. mit dem Wasser, nicht in Berührung kommen. After completion of the respective casting and subsequent pressing process, i.e. After opening the mold, it is important that the respective Ceramic object, which is in particular a mug, a cup or the like. is quickly removed from the mold to a desired To enable productivity. After opening the mold, the upper mold cleaned, i.e. rinsed with a liquid, preferably water. The one out Ceramic object removed from the casting mold may, however, be used with the Rinsing liquid, i.e. not come into contact with the water.

Während dieses Herstellungsvorgangs wird die Entnahmesaugeinrichtung 20 mit Hilfe der Verstelleinrichtung 22 von der Spülposition in eine durch die Abtransporteinrichtung 32 bestimmte Abgabeposition weiterbewegt. Dieser vierte Verfahrensschritt ist in Figur 4 verdeutlicht. Nach der Übergabe des mindestens einen Keramikgegenstandes 12 an die Abtransporteinrichtung 32 wird die Entnahmesaugeinrichtung 20 wieder in die auch in Figur 1 verdeutlichte Warteposition zurückbewegt. Die Entnahmesaugeinrichtung 20 verbleibt in dieser Warteposition so lange, bis der in Verbindung mit Figur 3 und 4 beschriebene erneute Gießprozeß beendet ist. Der in Figur 5 verdeutlichte fünfte Verfahrensschritt entspricht folglich dem in Figur 1 gezeichneten ersten Verfahrensschritt, d.h. es ergibt sich ein in sich geschlossener Verfahrens-Zyklus.In the third method step represented by FIG Extraction suction device 20 with the at least one suctioned Ceramic object 12 laterally to that through the spraying device 30 certain spraying position in which the respective ceramic object moves 12 is sprayed with a gas, preferably with air. At the same time, the Upper mold 16 with the aid of the adjusting device 22 neither in the casting position moved back, the mold 14 closed and a new casting process started, in which at least one other new ceramic article is manufactured, i.e. is poured. During this manufacturing process, the Withdrawal suction device 20 with the aid of the adjusting device 22 from the Rinsing position in a determined by the removal device 32 Delivery position moved on. This fourth process step is in FIG. 4 clarified. After the delivery of the at least one ceramic object 12 the removal suction device 20 is returned to the removal device 32 the waiting position also shown in Figure 1 moved back. The Removal suction device 20 remains in this waiting position until the in Connection with Figures 3 and 4 described new casting process has ended. The The fifth method step illustrated in FIG. 5 consequently corresponds to that in FIG. 1 drawn first process step, i.e. there is an in itself closed process cycle.
