Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for correcting a guided to the processing machine flexible material web, the web underside erroneously upwardly due to oppositely connected material web ends or due to rotation and wherein at least one rotation of the web about its longitudinal axis is made such that the rotation the correct material web top passes to the processing machine.
  • the material webs have a width of about 25 mm to 200 mm.
  • the material webs are usually made of nonwoven, foil, paper, airlaids or combination of the aforementioned compounds. These webs have a considerable thickness of about 0.5 mm to 5 mm and are therefore only conditionally to wind on roles.
  • a packing mold has developed in which the material web is laid down, either in layers, in a zigzag pattern on a pallet or in a carton, or in which a precut material web consisting of parallel individual webs is tabulated into a rectangular stack. In technical terms, this dropping technique is called "festooning".
  • twists which in the jargon with "Twist" be designated.
  • Another problem is when web ends have not been correctly connected and the material web top, which is to receive an impregnation in the processing machine, for example, pointing down.
  • the twists or twists and the wrongly connected material web ends ultimately lead to a non-functional end product because of the reversed material web top side and bottom side. Twists can also lead to demolition, which in turn leads to a standstill of the processing machine and the emergence of costly waste of an already high-quality and costly semi-finished material.
  • the present invention seeks to provide an apparatus and a method of the type in question, wherein the correction of a guided to the processing machine flexible material web with faulty upwardly facing web underside occurs without the formation of waste on semi-finished material of the web and downtime of the processing machine be completely avoided and an automation of the feeding process in connection with the correction of the faulty material web can be achieved.

  • the pre-switching of a rotatable pair of rollers in front of the processing machine already achieves an advantageous effect that the material web is securely guided between the rollers and - in contrast to manual correction - the rotation in the section between the rotatable pair of rollers and the processing machine can not continue. It has also been recognized that, with the aid of one fixed pair of rollers preceding and behind the rotatable pair of rollers, a kind of lock area is created on a frame on which the rotatable pair of rollers is arranged, in which corrective actions can take place.
  • the stationary pairs of rollers are each arranged in particular in the region of the respective front side of the frame and wherein the rotatable pair of rollers is moved along the frame. So that the faulty point on the material web can be "caught", the rolls of the first and / or second stationary roll pair and of the rotatable roll pair can be brought into an open and a closed position according to the invention. This allows automation of the delivery process.

  • the distance between the roller pairs depends on how wide the material web is, the ratio being at least 1: 8 and usually 1:10 and substantially more. With a material web width of 100 mm, a minimum distance of 800 mm between the roller pairs would result. These dimensions are in connection with the elimination of unwanted or intentional twists out of the frame area and their spread within defined dimensions, which depend on the properties of the web.
  • the rotatable pair of rollers could be arranged on a preferably motor-driven rotating device which is mounted in a frame.
  • the frame could in turn be arranged on a frame which ensures a distance to the removal point of the material web of at least about 1000 mm. This distance is required to give space in front of the rotatable pair of rollers or before the entire device remaining distortions and especially to be beneficial to the smoothness and reduce the oscillation due to relative speed between the material web and material pack.
  • the rollers of the first and / or second fixed pair of rollers and the rotatable pair of rollers can be moved into an open and a closed position.
  • the rollers are of the rotatable pair of rollers in the closed position and the rotatable pair of rollers is arranged approximately centrally between the two fixed pairs of rollers, which is in terms of fault detection of incorrectly connected web ends of relevance.
  • rollers of the two fixed pairs of rollers are in normal operation in the closed position and could be designed as rollers with clamping point, being pressed against each other so that the continuous transport of the material web is ensured.
  • the rollers of the two fixed pairs of rollers could also be designed as S-rollers, with a certain clamping action being achieved via friction.
  • one detection device for error detection could be arranged upstream of the rotatable roller pair.
  • An optimization of the error detection could be achieved if a first detection device is arranged upstream of the first fixed pair of rollers and a second detection device between the first stationary pair of rollers and the rotatable pair of rollers is arranged.
  • the detection means that the rotatable pair of rollers rotates by the required angle, thereby causing the correction of the error.

  • the distance between the first stationary and rotatable pair of rollers should not be less than 100 mm. It should be ensured that the rotatable pair of rollers is positioned on an unrotated portion of the web to avoid damage, buckling, breaks the web.
  • the rollers of the first stationary pair of rollers reach in the open position and there is the rotation of the rotatable pair of rollers, wherein the twist of the material web between the rotatable pair of rollers and the second stationary pair of rollers is corrected.
  • the rotation creates a new twist between the rotatable pair of rollers and the first stationary pair of rollers.
  • the regression of the material web skips the first fixed pair of rollers in the direction of removal point.
  • the small distance between the first fixed pair of rollers and the rotatable pair of rollers is advantageous because the new twist is under tension and lighter direction discharge point is ejected.
