Abstract

The continuous belt press (3), for the production of thin chipboards or fiberboards and the like, has a press frame with a moving upper frame section (7) and a fixed lower frame section (8). Heated plates (12) are towards the workpiece material, and continuous steel belts (9,10) travel around the upper and lower frame sections through drive and deflection drums, with an adjustable press gap between them. Roller rods (16) are across the line of belt travel, to give support against the heated plates. One or more openings are in the heated plates, across their width, to accommodate pressure units to achieve partial high pressures of 4-8 N/mm2. The pressure units have a pressure cylinder, piston and push rod with a pressure unit to generate a raised partial pressure on the fiber/chip material (4) over the mean heated plate pressure.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine überbreite kontinuierlich arbeitende Presse gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to an over-width continuously operating press according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Solche kontinuierlich arbeitenden Pressen sind durch viele Schutzrechte bekannt geworden, wobei sich die Stahlbänder über mitlaufende, mit ihren Achsen quer zur Laufrichtung der Stahlbänder geführten Rollstangen, Wälzkörpern oder Rollenteppichen gegenüber den Pressplatten abstützen. Statt Rollstangen können auch andere reibungsmindernde Mittel oder Vorrichtungen zwischen Stahlbänder und Pressplatten vorgesehen sein.Such continuous presses have become known by many industrial property rights, wherein the steel bands are supported by means of revolving rolling bars, rolling elements or roller carpets guided with their axes transversely to the running direction of the steel belts in relation to the press plates. Instead of rolling rods, other friction-reducing means or devices between steel belts and press plates may be provided.

Insbesondere bei der Herstellung von Span- und MDF-Platten werden heute solche kontinuierlich arbeitenden Pressen verwendet. Auch zur Herstellung von OSB und LVL setzt sich diese Technologie mittlerweile zunehmend durch. Die Vorteile gegenüber taktgebundenen Pressen sind die höhere Prozess-Stabilität und vor allem die höhere Wirtschaftlichkeit der kontinuierlich arbeitenden Pressen, die in den geringeren Schleifzugaben und dem Wegfall der Besäumverluste beim Schneiden auf Länge begründet liegen.In particular, in the production of particleboard and MDF boards such continuous presses are used today. In the meantime, this technology is increasingly gaining ground for the manufacture of OSB and LVL. The advantages compared to clock-fed presses are the higher process stability and, above all, the higher profitability of the continuously operating presses Presses that are due to the lower grinding allowances and the elimination of Besäumverluste when cutting to length.

Ein Verfahren zur kontinuierlichen Herstellung von Holzwerkstoffplatten, insbesondere von Platten im Dickenbereich 1 bis 9 mm im Trockenverfahren ist bekannt. In der DE 101 63 090 wird beispielsweise solch ein Verfahren beschrieben, wobei mit diesem Verfahren insbesondere Platten mit niedrigen Klebstoffgehalten erzeugt werden können. In der DE 101 09 316 wird ein Verfahren zur kontinuierlichen Herstellung einer Holzwerkstoffplatte mit sehr geringen Presszeiten beschrieben. Dazu wird ein sehr reaktives Klebstoffsystem verwendet. Aus diesen kurzen Presszeiten resultiert ein Vorschub von nahezu 1.000 mm/s. Mit der gattungsbildenden DE 195 18 879 ist ein Verfahren bekannt geworden, mit dem nach der Vorverdichtung die Spanfasermatte im Einlaufspalt in den folgenden Hauptpressstrecken mittels flexibler Pressengestelle bzw. und/oder Pressensegmenten eine druckarme Zone dekomprimierend und komprimierend mit einem steilen Steigungs- bzw. Fallwinkel Tangens β und β1 von circa 0,05 für einen Vertikalhub von 0 bis circa 10 mm ansteigend extrem kurz bei maximaler Produktionsgeschwindigkeit während der Produktion (Online) einsteuerbar ist.
Es hat sich aber herausgestellt, dass die bestehenden Verfahren und Anlagen einige Nachteile bei der Produktion von dünnen Platten aufweisen. Dies betrifft im wesentlichen die erreichte mittlere Dichte und die Oberflächendichte der Platte. Dünnplatten mit 2 bis 4 mm Dicke aus dem Nassverfahren werden zum Teil durch Faserplatten gleicher Dicke aus dem Trockenverfahren und durch Spanplatten einer Dicke von etwa 15 mm ersetzt. Die 15 mm Spanplatten nehmen etwa die gleiche Kraft auf wie die Faserplatten. Aber durch die Verwendung der dicken Spanplatten wird das Möbel schwerer, so dass nur ein begrenzter Einsatz möglich ist. Die dünnen Platten werden vorwiegend als Möbelrückwände und Schubladenböden eingesetzt. Bei dieser Verwendung können sie auch einseitig beschichtet oder lackiert werden. In letzter Zeit setzt sich zunehmend die direkte Lackierung der Plattenoberfläche durch. Der vorher notwendige Schleifvorgang entfällt. Für eine wirtschaftlich direkte Lackierung müssen die Platten jedoch bestimmten Anforderungen genügen. Die Oberflächendichte muss über 1000 kg/m3 betragen und das Dichtemaximum muss direkt an der Oberfläche sein. Bei einer niedrigeren Dichte wird der Lack von der Platte aufgesogen, was durch den vermehrten Lackeinsatz zu höheren Kosten führt.
A process for the continuous production of wood-based panels, in particular of plates in the thickness range 1 to 9 mm in the dry process is known. In the DE 101 63 090 For example, such a method is described, and in particular, plates with low adhesive contents can be produced by this method. In the DE 101 09 316 a method for the continuous production of a wood-based panel is described with very low pressing times. For this purpose, a very reactive adhesive system is used. These short pressing times result in a feed rate of almost 1,000 mm / s. With the generic DE 195 18 879 a method has become known with which after the pre-compaction the chipboard mat in the inlet gap in the following main press sections by means of flexible press racks and / or press segments decompressing and compressing a low pressure zone with a steep slope or falling angle tangent β and β 1 of about 0 , 05 for a vertical stroke from 0 to about 10 mm increasing extremely short at maximum production speed during production (online) can be controlled.
However, it has been found that the existing methods and equipment have some disadvantages in the production of thin plates. This essentially relates to the achieved average density and the surface density of the plate. Thin plates of 2 to 4 mm thickness from the wet process are used for Part replaced by fibreboard of the same thickness from the dry process and by chipboard of a thickness of about 15 mm. The 15 mm chipboard absorbs about the same force as the fiberboard. But by using the thick chipboard furniture is heavier, so that only a limited use is possible. The thin panels are mainly used as furniture backs and drawer bottoms. With this use, they can also be coated on one side or painted. Lately, the direct painting of the plate surface is becoming increasingly prevalent. The previously necessary grinding process is eliminated. For an economically direct painting, however, the plates must meet certain requirements. The surface density must be above 1000 kg / m 3 and the density maximum must be directly at the surface. At a lower density of the paint is absorbed by the plate, resulting in the increased use of paint at a higher cost.

Bei den bekannten Doppelbandpressen ist es trotz einer Mattenbesprühung und/oder Deckschichtdampfvorwärmung sehr schwierig, sehr hohe Dichteunterschiede zwischen Deck- und Mittelschicht zu erreichen, da der Wärme- und Druckverlauf während der Heißpressung nicht optimal gesteuert werden kann.In the known double belt presses, it is very difficult, despite a Mattenbesprühung and / or cover layer steam preheating to achieve very high density differences between the top and middle layer, since the heat and pressure curve during the hot pressing can not be optimally controlled.

Auch ist eine schnelle Entlastung nach dem Ausbilden der Deckschicht nicht möglich, wodurch ebenfalls die Breite der Deckschichtdichte unnötig groß ausgebildet wird. Die Entlastung ist aufgrund der begrenzten Flexibilität der Heizplatten, also der möglichen Verformung pro Meter Presslänge, nicht möglich. Der Einsatz längerer Pressen bei denen die Flexibilität pro Meter Presslänge geringer sein könnte, ist bei den angestrebten geringen Presszeiten unwirtschaftlich.Also, a rapid release after the formation of the cover layer is not possible, whereby also the width of the cover layer density unnecessarily large is trained. The relief is not possible due to the limited flexibility of the heating plates, so the possible deformation per meter of press length. The use of longer presses where the flexibility per meter press length could be lower, is uneconomical at the desired low pressing times.

Demnach hat sich bei den bisher bekannten Ausführungen von kontinuierlichen Pressen herausgestellt, dass die relativ steifen Heizplatten sowohl in Längs- als auch in Querrichtung vor allem bei kurzen Pressen sehr geringe Verformungsmöglichkeiten aufweisen. Dadurch ist die technologische Verformbarkeit der herzustellenden Faserplatten in Längsrichtung begrenzt. Als weiterer Nachteil hat sich herausgestellt, dass, trotz entsprechender Anzahl von Zylinderanordnungen in Querrichtung, die Heizplatten vor allem bei Dünnplatten und HDF-Plattenproduktionen gegenüber Dichtefehlern, Leimklumpen oder dgl. in der Fasermatte im Hochdruckbereich zu steif sind, um diesen Materialverdichtungen auszuweichen. Dies führte in der Vergangenheit immer wieder zu Stahlbandschäden.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine kontinuierlich arbeitende Presse der genannten Art zu schaffen, mit der eine größere Verformbarkeit und Elastizität der Heizplatten und ihrer Einwirkung auf das Pressgut innerhalb des Pressbereichs möglich ist und mit dem bei sehr kurzen Presszeiten dünne Faserplatten mit optimalem Dichteprofil, insbesondere eine hohe Dichte in den Deckschichten mit Dichteunterschied zwischen Deck- und Mittelschicht, herstellbar sind.
Accordingly, it has been found in the previously known embodiments of continuous presses that the relatively rigid heating plates both in the longitudinal and in the transverse direction, especially in short presses have very low deformation possibilities. As a result, the technological deformability of the fiberboard to be produced is limited in the longitudinal direction. Another disadvantage has been found that, despite the corresponding number of cylinder arrangements in the transverse direction, the hot plates are too stiff especially in thin plates and HDF plate productions against density errors, glue lumps or the like. In the fiber mat in the high pressure region to avoid these material compaction. In the past, this has repeatedly led to steel strip damage.
The invention has for its object to provide a continuously operating press of the type mentioned, with a greater deformability and elasticity of the heating plates and their action on the pressed material within the pressing area is possible and with the very short pressing times thin fiberboard with optimum density profile, in particular a high density in the Cover layers with density difference between the top and middle layers can be produced.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe geht aus dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruches 1 wie folgt hervor: zur Erzeugung partiell sehr hoher Drücke von 4 bis 8 N/mm2 auf die Pressgutmatte eine oder mehrere über die Breite der Heizplatten reichende Ausnehmungen vorgesehen sind, in die mehrere Druckeinheiten eingelassen angeordnet sind, wobei über Druckzylinder, Druckkolben, Druckstössel und Druckelement einer gegenüber dem mittleren Heizplattendruck erhöhter partieller Druck auf das Pressgut/Pressgutmatte einsteuerbar ist.The solution of this problem is apparent from the characterizing part of claim 1 as follows: are provided for generating partially very high pressures of 4 to 8 N / mm 2 on the Pressgutmatte one or more across the width of the heating plates reaching recesses in the plurality of printing units are arranged, wherein via pressure cylinder, pressure piston, plunger and pressure element of a relation to the mean Heizplattendruck increased partial pressure on the pressed material / pressed material mat can be controlled.

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung hat insbesondere den Vorteil, dass die Verformbarkeit und die Elastizität der unter den Heizplatten angebrachten deutlich dünneren Abrollplatten, mit einer Dicke von ca. 2 bis 20 mm sowohl in Quer- als auch in Längsrichtung ausgenutzt wird. Während in den unkritischen Bereichen mit weniger Druck und weniger benötigter Verformbarkeit die Abrollplatte voll von den Heizplatten unterstützt wird, wird in den kritischen Hochdruck- und Verformungsbereichen die Abrollplatte von der Heizplatte durch zusätzliche Druckelemente entkoppelt und kann elastisch wesentlich stärker verformt werden.The solution according to the invention has the particular advantage that the deformability and the elasticity of the significantly thinner rolling plates mounted under the heating plates, with a thickness of approximately 2 to 20 mm, is utilized both in the transverse and in the longitudinal direction. While in the non-critical areas with less pressure and less required deformability, the rolling plate is fully supported by the heating plates, the rolling plate is decoupled from the heating plate by additional pressure elements in the critical high pressure and deformation areas and can be elastically deformed much more.

Gerade im Hochdruckbereich kann durch die Anbringung von einer Vielzahl von Druckelementen, die in Querrichtung nicht miteinander, oder sehr elastisch miteinander verbunden sind ein hochelastisches Druckkissen erzeugt werden, welches bei Dichteschwankungen sehr flexibel ausweichen kann und somit Stahlbandbeschädigungen verhindert. Durch diese Anordnung können partiell höhere Drücke als bisher erzeugt werden ohne die Stahlbänder zu beschädigen.Especially in the high pressure area, a highly elastic pressure pad can be generated by the attachment of a plurality of printing elements, which are not connected to each other in the transverse direction, or very elastic, which can dodge very flexible with density variations and thus prevents steel tape damage. By this arrangement partially higher pressures can be generated than before without damaging the steel bands.

Bei einer inhomogenen Fasermatte mit Dichtunterschieden, Leimklumpen und dgl. wird bei einer steifen Heizplatte (zum Beispiel > 50 mm) das Pressgut über die Breite überall in etwa gleich verdichtet und erzeugt somit abhängig von den Dichteunterschieden partiell deutlich höhere Pressdrücke.In the case of an inhomogeneous fiber mat with differences in density, glue lumps and the like, the pressed material is compacted almost equally over the width of a rigid heating plate (for example> 50 mm) and thus produces partially significantly higher pressing pressures, depending on the density differences.

Bei den extrem weichen Abrollplatten (< 20 mm) kann sich diese über die Breite sehr leicht verformen und weicht bei Dichteunterschieden durch die homogene Druckbeaufschlagung entsprechend aus ohne partiell höhere Drücke zu erzeugen. Da Stahlbandschäden erst bei Überschreitung eines partiellen Grenzdruckes auftreten ist die Anordnung des erfindungsgemäßen Druckkissens mit den Druckeinheiten in der Anordnung speziell im Hochdruckbereich notwendig.In the case of the extremely soft rolling plates (<20 mm), this can deform very easily across the width and, given differences in density, deviates correspondingly from the homogeneous pressurization without producing partially higher pressures. Since damage to the steel strip occurs only when a partial limit pressure is exceeded, the arrangement of the pressure pad according to the invention with the printing units in the arrangement is necessary especially in the high-pressure area.

In den nachfolgenden Druckbereichen wird ein deutlich geringerer Pressdruck gefahren (meist weniger als die Hälfte des Hochdruckbereiches), d.h. der Pressspalt wird wieder geöffnet, die Gefahr von Stahlbandschäden ist geringer und ein Druckkissen in dieser extrem elastischen Form ist nicht mehr notwendig.In the following pressure ranges a significantly lower pressure is driven (usually less than half of the high pressure area), ie the Pressing gap is opened again, the risk of steel strip damage is lower and a pressure pad in this extremely elastic shape is no longer necessary.

Für extreme Pressbedingungen kann es zweckmäßig sein, wenn die Druckelemente in den Ausnehmungen verschieden lang über die Breite der Heizplatten ausgeführt und jeder Druckzylinder mit einer separat ansteuerbaren Hydraulik ausgestattet ist.For extreme pressing conditions, it may be expedient if the pressure elements in the recesses of different lengths over the width of the heating plates and each pressure cylinder is equipped with a separately controllable hydraulics.

Zur Herstellung von dünnen Faserplatten mit einer kontinuierlich arbeitenden Presse besteht die Lösung darin, dass die Presslänge der kontinuierlich arbeitenden Presse geringer als 11 m ist, der Einlaufbereich eine Länge von 1,3 m bis 1,7 m aufweist und im oberen Teil mit einem Gelenk versehen ist, und dass die obere Heizplatte nach 1,8 bis 2,4 m Mattenkontakt für einen Entlastungsstoß den Pressspalt erweiternd ausgebildet ist, wofür die Heizplattendicke zwischen 90 ― 100 mm beträgt und gegenüber den Rollstangen mit flexiblen Abrollplatten einer Dicke von 2 mm bis 20 mm versehen ist.For the production of thin fibreboard with a continuous press, the solution is that the pressing length of the continuous press is less than 11 m, the inlet region has a length of 1.3 m to 1.7 m and in the upper part with a joint is provided, and that the upper heating plate is formed after 1.8 to 2.4 m mat contact for a relief shock widening the press nip, for which the Heizplattendicke is between 90 - 100 mm and against the rolling rods with flexible Abrollplatten a thickness of 2 mm to 20 mm is provided.

Mit der kontinuierlich arbeitenden Presse gemäß der Erfindung sind dünne Faserplatten bei kürzesten Presszeiten mit optimalen Dichteprofilen und hohen Dichteunterschieden zwischen den Deckschichten und der Mittelschicht herstellbar, wobei in den Deckschichten eine Dichte von über 1000 kg/m3 und in der Mittelschicht unter 600 kg/m3, bei einer mittleren Dichte der Platte geringer als 750 kg/m3, erreichbar sind.With the continuous press according to the invention thin fiberboard can be produced at shortest pressing times with optimum density profiles and high density differences between the outer layers and the middle layer, wherein in the outer layers has a density of about 1000 kg / m 3 and in the middle layer below 600 kg / m 3 , with an average density of the plate less than 750 kg / m 3 , can be reached.

Der Entlastungsstoß kann zwischen zwei Heizplatten mit den Druckeinheiten konstruktiv so ausgeführt werden, dass eine Entlastung um bis zu 2,5 mm möglich ist, wobei die Verbiegung mit diesen weichen Heizplatten und daran anliegenden Abrollplatten nach DE 40 10 308 mittels einem Sprunggelenk zwischen zwei Heizplatten auf sehr kurzer Strecke erreichbar ist.The relief shock can be designed constructively between two heating plates with the pressure units so that a relief of up to 2.5 mm is possible, with the deflection of these soft heating plates and adjacent rolling plates after DE 40 10 308 by means of an ankle joint between two hot plates on a very short distance is reached.

Demnach ist die Heizplatte oder die Heizplatten nach dem Einlauf bis zum Entlastungsstoß sehr flexibel ausgebildet. Die hohe Flexibilität der Heiz- und Abrollplatten in diesem Bereich erlauben es also den Dichteprofilverlauf in den Deckschichten in einem weiteren Bereich als bisher zu gestalten.Accordingly, the heating plate or plates after the inlet to the discharge shock is very flexible. The high flexibility of the heating and Abrollplatten in this area thus make it possible to make the density profile course in the outer layers in a wider range than before.

Als Alternative bzw. als Ergänzung kann die Heizplatte auch unterteilt werden und die Stöße mit den Druckeinheiten als Belastungsstöße ausgeführt werden. Die Belastungsstöße sind bevorzugt bei 5m oder nach 5 und 7 m angeordnet.As an alternative or as a supplement, the heating plate can also be subdivided and the joints with the pressure units can be designed as load impacts. The load impacts are preferably arranged at 5 m or 5 and 7 m.

Wesentlich neben der Flexibilität der Heizplatten ist die Temperatur der Stahlbänder bei Mattenkontakt. Die Temperatur muss über 140 °C vorzugsweise 155 °C betragen, damit zu dem Zeitpunkt des maximalen Druckes eine ausreichende Erwärmung der Mattenoberflächen statt gefunden hat. Auch eine Rollstangenbeheizung im Rücklauf ist von Vorteil.Significant next to the flexibility of the heating plates is the temperature of the steel strips in contact with the mat. The temperature must be above 140 ° C, preferably 155 ° C, so that at the time of maximum pressure sufficient heating of the mat surfaces has taken place. A roller bar heating in the return is an advantage.

Am Pressenauslauf muss allerdings zur exakten Dickeneinstellung über die Breite eine Möglichkeit der transversalen Verformung der Heizplatte vorgesehen werden. Dies kann zum Beispiel mittels Multipötte durchgeführt werden.At the press outlet, however, a possibility of the transverse deformation of the heating plate must be provided for the exact thickness adjustment across the width. This can be done for example by means of multipots.
