- the object of the invention is to provide a method which brings together the advantages of the known devices, which in particular allows a high speed of laying while following patterns in a flexible manner, and of proposing a device which is particularly suitable for the implementation of the invention. process.
- a particular characteristic of this process according to the invention consists in that the support is now reversible (with reversal of the direction of advance or rotation) and also that it is driven with an adjustable speed.
- possibilities are clearly widened, on the one hand for laying the wires on the substrate, and on the other hand for the use of other tools.
- a flat or curved support with a mass as small as possible can be used which can be driven and positioned very precisely with the aid of a positioning drive, preferably a direct drive without play with very short reaction.
- Such direct trainings are in themselves known. It is not absolutely necessary that they be operated electrically, but one can also use hydraulic or pneumatic positioning drives.
- This first step according to the invention is completed by the use of a linear drive fast and precise, preferably electric, for the movements of the tools transversely to the direction of movement of the support.
- a linear drive fast and precise, preferably electric, for the movements of the tools transversely to the direction of movement of the support.
- at least one guide rail is required with the driving magnets and at least one slider serving as a tool carrier or as configured as such.
- fluid-driven servomotors pneumatic or hydraulic
- linear motors which can, with their control members, each time position a tool or several tools in a synchronous manner and parallel to each other. In this way, it is possible to achieve high adjustment speeds and precise positioning.
- the complete control of the machine can be programmed, so that, to change a laying pattern, only the current control program must be modified.
- the waviness amplitude of the laid wires may finally be variable. It is certainly known in itself to lay the son in corrugated lines, however it is obtained with the known means (in which the son are deformed plastically between two toothed wheels in engagement immediately before laying on the substrate) only a uniform corrugation, even if it is visually very unclear and the wires are well hidden from view.
- the corresponding devices make it possible, by a suitably coordinated control of the advances of the laying units and the support, to lay the wires also in waves with variable wavelengths and / or amplitudes. .
- a wire which must pass only a relatively short distance between the collecting conductors in the case of a predetermined window contour, can acquire by a suitable corrugation (with a longer effective wire length as a result) a active resistance which is equal to the resistances of the "longer" wires visually mounted electrically in parallel, or in any case at least close to them.
- This request can be met by replacing the mechanical drive of the known laying units, for example by stepping motors or other suitable servocontrols.
- the control of these drives / stepper motors is naturally synchronized with the control of the support. This produces a variable electronic distribution.
- the Z axis of the movement of the tools can be set in translation or in rotation.
- it can for example be provided a hollow shaft electric drive, which can first be moved and positioned along a rectilinear guide, and which can pivot about this axis in translation or an axis parallel thereto for the action of a tool that it carries, for example a cutting tool or marking.
- Cutting tools can be integrated in the device both for the lengthening of the laid wires themselves (clamps, short circuit electrodes) and for cutting the substrate, for example a thermoplastic adhesive film (knife) , and be controlled with the process according to the invention. It is also possible, for example, to combine a laying unit with a cutting tool, so that after the laying of a defined length of wire, it is immediately cut conveniently before starting the laying of the wire. next (possibly neighbor). In this case, it would also be possible, unlike the known methods and devices, to pose in opposite directions of installation of the wires to be laid one after the other.
- a rotary drum-shaped support 1 is provided with a reversible electric direct drive 2, which acts on an axis of rotation 3 of the support 1 fixedly mounted in a frame and which can, on the one hand, drive this one around this axis of rotation 3 in both directions of rotation and on the other hand to control and position it in predetermined movement patterns.
- a plastic substrate 4 is fixed on the surface of the support 1 with adequate means (of a known nature).
- two laying units 5 of the same type have been indicated. They are intended to lay thin wires 6 on the plastic substrate 4. They are fixed on sliders 7, which can slide along guide rails 8 fixed to the frame, perpendicular to the plane of the drawing.
- FIG. 8 It is further shown schematically another tool 5 'on the left side, next to the support.
- This is guided on a cylindrical guide rail 8 ', and its slider 7' has a bore adapted to the guide rail 8 '.
- This slider can not only slide along the guide rail 8 ', but it can also pivot around it (hollow shaft pivot drive), so that the corresponding tool 5' can also perform a movement of lifting (pivoting) around it with respect to the support 1 and the plastic substrate. It is thus adjustable back and forth between a rest position (raised, drawn in solid lines) and a working position (in contact with the plastic substrate, drawn in phantom).
- the tool may for example be a heating tool, a cutting tool and / or a writing tool and it then comes into contact with the plastic substrate only when its function is really necessary.
- the laying units 5 can also be adjustable in height relative to their slider 7, in particular to bring them with their blocks 9 in the exactly correct position above the surface of the substrate, and further to facilitate the exchange of wire coils and insertion of new wires 6.
- FIG. 2 further illustrates the relative mobility of the laying units 5 and the support 1 with the plastic substrate 4.
- a guide rail 8 This, however, outside the laying unit 5, in addition to the slider 7 two more sliders 7 drawn in phantom with other tools of the type described above.
- the guide rail 8 extends parallel to the axis 3 and therefore perpendicular to the actual working direction of the support 1.
- a programmable control unit C which coordinates the movements of the support 1 and sliders 7 with the installation units and the other tools. It is symbolically connected using control and power lines with the direct drive and the guide rail respectively with the sliders associated with it.
- the laying units 5 are suitable for laying the wires 6 in the correct and safe position, independently of the direction of the relative movement between the support on the one hand and the sliders on the other hand. This is reproduced here in a very simplified way because the son 6 are guided by a block 9, whose lower face is placed as close as possible to the surface of the plastic substrate 4.
- the plastic substrate 4 is here divided into three sections along the width of the support 1 by two pairs of phantom lines drawn vertically.
- Sinuous paths are possible, if one uses the option of the direct drive 2 to move in oscillation back and forth the support 1 itself (also indicated on the left by a double arrow) and to continue at the same time the laying of a wire 6.
- This variant is illustrated in the central portion of the plastic substrate 4, where is produced on the edge thereof with the wire 6 a corrugated pattern propagating parallel to the axis 3 support 1, only by the oscillation of the support 1 and at the same time the translational movement of a slider 7 carrying a laying unit in addition to the block 9.
- a cutting line 10 which is made here with the help of another slider 7 equipped with a cutting tool 5 ', for dividing the substrate of material plastic 4.

Description
L'invention se rapporte à un procédé et à un dispositif pour la pose de fils sur un substrat en matière plastique,présentant les caractéristiques du préambule de la revendication 1. Elle se rapporte également à un dispositif convenant particulièrement pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé.The invention relates to a method and a device for laying wires on a plastic substrate, having the features of the preamble of
Il est connu depuis longtemps d'intégrer dans des vitres feuilletées de fenêtres pour des véhicules ou des bâtiments des chauffages, des antennes, des décorations ou aussi des écrans anti-rayonnement, qui sont essentiellement formés de fils électriquement conducteurs, qui sont déposés mécaniquement sur une couche adhésive de la vitre feuilletée selon un motif prédéterminé. Pour la mise en contact électrique de ces fils vers l'extérieur (arrivée de la tension de chauffage, transfert de signaux d'antenne), on prévoit en règle générale à leurs deux extrémités des conducteurs collecteurs, qui sont électriquement raccordés à tous les fils par brasage, par des colles conductrices de l'électricité ou analogues.It has long been known to integrate in window panes for vehicles or buildings heaters, antennas, decorations or also anti-radiation screens, which are essentially formed of electrically conductive wires, which are mechanically deposited on an adhesive layer of the laminated pane according to a predetermined pattern. For the electrical contact of these wires to the outside (arrival of the heating voltage, transfer of antenna signals), both ends are generally provided with collecting conductors, which are electrically connected to all the wires. by soldering, by electrically conductive adhesives or the like.
Le brevet US-A-5 891 280 décrit un procédé de pose de fils fins et le dispositif correspondant, avec lequel les fils sont posés sur un film adhésif ou analogue. Le procédé se caractérise en ce que les films à garnir sont fixés sur un tambour rotatif, qui sert pour le positionnement des films sous une unité de pose, qui est déplaçable en un mouvement réciproque parallèlement à l'axe du tambour rotatif, avec une grande précision de positionnement à la manière d'une table à dessiner. Ainsi, les fils peuvent en principe être déposés sur des tracés quelconques, en particulier également courbes, et leurs écartements mutuels ne doivent pas nécessairement rester constants. Le sens et la vitesse de rotation du tambour restent toutefois constants.US-A-5 891 280 discloses a method of laying thin threads and the corresponding device, with which the threads are laid on an adhesive film or the like. The method is characterized in that the films to be lined are fixed on a rotating drum, which serves for the positioning of the films under a laying unit, which is movable in a reciprocal movement parallel to the axis of the rotary drum, with a large positioning accuracy in the manner of a drawing table. Thus, the wires can in principle be deposited on tracks in any case, in particular also curves, and their mutual spacings need not necessarily remain constant. The direction and speed of rotation of the drum, however, remain constant.
L'unité de pose est déplacée en un mouvement réciproque à l'aide d'un entraînement à broche longitudinale, qui permet un positionnement précis, mais qui est dans son principe relativement lent dans le cas de mouvements importants. Le procédé peut également être utilisé pour relier des conducteurs collecteurs encore sur le tambour avec les fils, et pour couper ces derniers.The laying unit is moved in a reciprocal movement by means of a longitudinal spindle drive, which allows precise positioning, but which is in principle relatively slow in the case of large movements. The method can also be used to connect yet collector conductors on the drum with the wires, and to cut them.
Un dispositif plus ancien connu par le document DE-A1-42 01 620, pour la pose de fils fins sur un film thermoplastique, comprend une ou plusieurs unités de pose qui peut/peuvent à nouveau être déplacée(s) dans la direction de l'axe d'un tambour tournant portant le film, dans lequel toutefois les fils sont finalement enroulés en hélice autour du tambour. Dans le produit fini, ceci ne s'avère pas gênant en raison du très faible angle d'inclinaison entre les fils posés à très courtes distances l'un de l'autre. Ce procédé travaille au final plus rapidement que la technique mentionnée plus haut, mais il ne permet pas la pose des fils en suivant un contour.An older device known from DE-A1-42 01 620, for laying fine wires on a thermoplastic film, comprises one or more laying units which can / can be moved again in the direction of the The axis of a rotating drum carrying the film, in which, however, the yarns are finally wound helically around the drum. In the finished product, this is not a problem because of the very low angle of inclination between the wires laid at very short distances from one another. This process works in the end faster than the technique mentioned above, but it does not allow the laying of son following a contour.
Les deux types de dispositifs connus ont en commun que les films sont fixés sur les tambours par l'application d'une différence de pression; les surfaces latérales des tambours sont perforées, et la pression dans l'espace intérieur du tambour creux est réduite par rapport à la pression atmosphérique par une aspiration d'air.The two types of known devices have in common that the films are fixed on the drums by the application of a pressure difference; the side surfaces of the drums are perforated, and the pressure in the interior space of the hollow drum is reduced with respect to the atmospheric pressure by an air suction.
Il est également connu de déposer des fils sur un support immobile plan à l'aide d'un dispositif semblable à une table à dessiner. Ce dispositif peut certes produire des lignes de dépôt pratiquement quelconques, il est cependant relativement lent.It is also known to deposit wires on a stationary still support using a device similar to a drawing table. Although this device can produce virtually any deposit lines, it is nevertheless relatively slow.
Par le document EP-B1-613 769, on connaît un procédé pour couper des fils de chauffage déposés en continu sur un substrat, tandis que le document EP-B1-656 257 décrit un procédé pour réaliser la mise en contact électrique des fils de chauffage posés parallèlement les uns aux autres avec des conducteurs collecteurs orientés transversalement par rapport à ceux-ci.EP-B1-613 769 discloses a method for cutting heating wires deposited continuously on a substrate, while EP-B1-656 257 discloses a method for electrically contacting the heating arranged parallel to each other with collector conductors oriented transversely to them.
L'invention a pour objet de procurer un procédé, qui rassemble les avantages des dispositifs connus, qui permet en particulier une grande vitesse de pose tout en suivant des tracés de façon flexible, et de proposer un dispositif convenant particulièrement pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé.The object of the invention is to provide a method which brings together the advantages of the known devices, which in particular allows a high speed of laying while following patterns in a flexible manner, and of proposing a device which is particularly suitable for the implementation of the invention. process.
Conformément à l'invention, ce problème est résolu en ce qui concerne le procédé par les caractéristiques de la revendication 1. Les caractéristiques de la revendication 11 indiquent un dispositif correspondant. Les caractéristiques des sous-revendications subordonnées aux revendications indépendantes respectives présentent des formes de réalisation avantageuses de ces inventions.According to the invention, this problem is solved with respect to the method by the features of
Une caractéristique particulière de ce procédé conforme à l'invention consiste en ce que le support est à présent réversible (avec inversion du sens d'avance ou de rotation) et aussi qu'il est entraîné avec une vitesse réglable. Ainsi s'ouvrent des possibilités nettement élargies d'une part pour la pose des fils sur le substrat, d'autre part aussi pour l'utilisation d'autres outils. On utilisera à cet effet un support plan ou courbe, de masse aussi faible que possible, qui peut être entraîné et positionné de façon très précise à l'aide d'un entraînement de positionnement, de préférence un entraînement direct sans jeu avec des temps de réaction très courts. De tels entraînements directs sont en soi connus. Il n'est pas absolument nécessaire que ceux-ci soient actionnés électriquement, mais on peut employer également des entraînements de positionnement hydrauliques ou pneumatiques.A particular characteristic of this process according to the invention consists in that the support is now reversible (with reversal of the direction of advance or rotation) and also that it is driven with an adjustable speed. In this way, possibilities are clearly widened, on the one hand for laying the wires on the substrate, and on the other hand for the use of other tools. For this purpose, a flat or curved support with a mass as small as possible can be used which can be driven and positioned very precisely with the aid of a positioning drive, preferably a direct drive without play with very short reaction. Such direct trainings are in themselves known. It is not absolutely necessary that they be operated electrically, but one can also use hydraulic or pneumatic positioning drives.
Au lieu de l'entraînement direct sans engrenages préféré, on pourrait aussi utiliser un entraînement avec une distribution par engrenages et une compensation appropriée du jeu éventuel.Instead of the preferred gearless direct drive, it would also be possible to use a drive with a gear distribution and appropriate compensation of the possible play.
Cette première étape conforme à l'invention est complétée par l'utilisation d'un entraînement linéaire rapide et précis, de préférence électrique, pour les mouvements des outils transversalement à la direction de déplacement du support. On a besoin pour cet entraînement linéaire au moins d'un rail de guidage avec les aimants d'entraînement ainsi que d'au moins un curseur servant de porte-outil ou selon le cas configuré comme tel.This first step according to the invention is completed by the use of a linear drive fast and precise, preferably electric, for the movements of the tools transversely to the direction of movement of the support. For this linear drive at least one guide rail is required with the driving magnets and at least one slider serving as a tool carrier or as configured as such.
Il est alors possible de disposer plusieurs curseurs sur le même rail de guidage et/ou de prévoir plusieurs rails de guidage répartis sur la surface de travail. Le cas échéant, les fonctions des outils (pose, raccordement électrique, coupe des fils et le cas échéant du substrat) peuvent être réparties sur différents rails de guidage respectivement sur plusieurs entraînements linéaires.It is then possible to have several cursors on the same guide rail and / or to provide several guide rails distributed on the work surface. If necessary, the functions of the tools (laying, electrical connection, cutting of the son and possibly the substrate) can be distributed on different guide rails respectively on several linear drives.
A la différence du cas d'application précédent, on peut cependant aussi utiliser comme moteurs linéaires des servomoteurs entraînés par un fluide (pneumatique ou hydraulique) qui peuvent, avec leurs organes de réglage, positionner chaque fois un outil ou plusieurs outils de façon synchrone et parallèlement l'un à l'autre. Ainsi également, on peut atteindre de grandes vitesses de réglage et un positionnement précis.Unlike the case of the previous application, however, it is also possible to use fluid-driven servomotors (pneumatic or hydraulic) as linear motors which can, with their control members, each time position a tool or several tools in a synchronous manner and parallel to each other. In this way, it is possible to achieve high adjustment speeds and precise positioning.
La commande complète de la machine peut être programmée, de sorte que, pour changer un schéma de pose, seul le programme de commande actuellement en cours doit être modifié.The complete control of the machine can be programmed, so that, to change a laying pattern, only the current control program must be modified.
Avec une telle façon de procéder et une telle technique de pose, on peut également réaliser des motifs de pose spécifiques aux clients, par exemple la pose d'un ensemble de fils sous une forme globalement en coin, c'est-à-dire que les fils couvrent finalement une surface sensiblement trapézoïdale, du fait qu'ils ne sont pas posés de façon exactement parallèle comme jusqu'à présent, mais avec de faibles inclinaisons l'un par rapport à l'autre. Cet effet peut également être obtenu en orientant par exemple les fils de façon exactement parallèle les uns par rapport aux autres comme auparavant dans la zone centrale de la surface et en posant des quantités partielles de fils, dans les régions de bord de la surface non rectangulaire à garnir, avec un angle intermédiaire constant, variable ou progressivement croissant entre des fils voisins.With such a way of proceeding and such a laying technique, it is also possible to make specific laying patterns for the customers, for example the laying of a set of threads in a generally corner shape, that is to say that the wires finally cover a substantially trapezoidal surface, because they are not laid exactly parallel as before, but with small inclinations relative to each other. This effect can also be achieved by orienting the yarns, for example, exactly parallel to one another as before in the central area of the surface and by placing partial quantities of yarns in the edge regions of the non-rectangular surface. to garnish, with a constant intermediate angle, variable or progressively increasing between neighboring son.
On peut ainsi satisfaire les demandes de clients, par exemple dans l'industrie automobile, qui désirent une occupation de la surface telle qu'un chauffage de toute la surface soit possible, dans des parties, sensiblement trapézoïdales en développement, de la surface de pare-brise ou de lunettes arrière, même lorsque les fils de chauffage s'étendent entre les deux longs côtés (en position montée entre l'arête supérieure ou de toit et l'arête inférieure) de telles vitres.It is thus possible to satisfy the demands of customers, for example in the automotive industry, who desire a surface occupation such that heating of the entire surface is possible, in parts, substantially trapezoidal developing, of the surface of -brise or rear glasses, even when the heating son extend between the two long sides (in mounted position between the upper edge or roof and the lower edge) of such panes.
Selon encore une autre forme de réalisation du procédé, l'amplitude d'ondulation des fils posés peut finalement être variable. Il est certes connu en soi de poser les fils en lignes ondulées, toutefois on obtient avec les moyens connus (dans lesquels les fils sont déformés plastiquement entre deux roues dentées en prise immédiatement avant la pose sur le substrat) uniquement une ondulation uniforme, même si elle est visuellement très peu évidente et que les fils sont bien cachés à la vue.According to yet another embodiment of the method, the waviness amplitude of the laid wires may finally be variable. It is certainly known in itself to lay the son in corrugated lines, however it is obtained with the known means (in which the son are deformed plastically between two toothed wheels in engagement immediately before laying on the substrate) only a uniform corrugation, even if it is visually very unclear and the wires are well hidden from view.
Avec le procédé conforme à l'invention au contraire, les dispositifs correspondants permettent, par une commande convenablement coordonnée des avances des unités de pose et du support, de poser les fils également en ondes avec des longueurs d'onde et/ou des amplitudes variables. De cette manière, on peut également influencer dans de larges limites - par la pose de plus ou moins grandes longueurs de fils - les résistances et ainsi aussi la puissance de chauffage de lignes de fils individuelles, sans que l'on doive employer un matériau en fil de dimensions/ épaisseurs différentes ou présentant des résistances spécifiques différentes. En particulier, un fil, qui ne doit franchir qu'une distance relativement courte entre les conducteurs collecteurs dans le cas d'un contour de vitre prédéterminé, peut acquérir par une ondulation appropriée (avec une longueur de fil effective plus longue en conséquence) une résistance active qui est égale aux résistances des fils "plus longs" visuellement montés électriquement en parallèle, ou dans tous les cas au moins proche de celles-ci.With the method according to the invention, on the contrary, the corresponding devices make it possible, by a suitably coordinated control of the advances of the laying units and the support, to lay the wires also in waves with variable wavelengths and / or amplitudes. . In this way, it is also possible to influence, within wide limits - by laying more or less long lengths of wire - the resistances and thus also the heating power of individual wire lines, without having to use a material made of wire of different sizes / thicknesses or with different specific resistances. In particular, a wire, which must pass only a relatively short distance between the collecting conductors in the case of a predetermined window contour, can acquire by a suitable corrugation (with a longer effective wire length as a result) a active resistance which is equal to the resistances of the "longer" wires visually mounted electrically in parallel, or in any case at least close to them.
Cette demande peut être rencontrée en remplaçant l'entraînement mécanique des unités de pose connues par exemple par des moteurs pas à pas ou d'autres servocommandes adéquates. La commande de ces entraînements/moteurs pas à pas est naturellement synchronisée avec la commande du support. On réalise ainsi une distribution électronique variable.This request can be met by replacing the mechanical drive of the known laying units, for example by stepping motors or other suitable servocontrols. The control of these drives / stepper motors is naturally synchronized with the control of the support. This produces a variable electronic distribution.
L'axe Z du mouvement des outils, c'est-à-dire sa composante orientée plus ou moins perpendiculairement à la surface de travail, respectivement à la surface du substrat, peut être mis en translation ou en rotation. Pour cette dernière variante, il peut par exemple être prévu un entraînement électrique à arbre creux, qui peut d'abord être déplacé et positionné le long d'un guide rectiligne, et qui peut pivoter autour de cet axe en translation ou d'un axe parallèle à celui-ci pour l'action d'un outil qu'il porte, par exemple d'un outil de coupe ou de marquage.The Z axis of the movement of the tools, that is to say its component oriented more or less perpendicularly to the working surface, respectively to the surface of the substrate, can be set in translation or in rotation. For this latter variant, it can for example be provided a hollow shaft electric drive, which can first be moved and positioned along a rectilinear guide, and which can pivot about this axis in translation or an axis parallel thereto for the action of a tool that it carries, for example a cutting tool or marking.
Des outils de coupe peuvent être intégrés dans le dispositif aussi bien pour la mise à longueur des fils posés eux-mêmes (pinces, électrodes de court-circuit) que pour la coupe du substrat, par exemple d'un film adhésif thermoplastique (couteau), et être commandés avec le procédé conforme à l'invention. On peut par exemple aussi imaginer de combiner une unité de pose avec un outil de coupe, de telle façon qu'après la pose d'une longueur définie de fil, celle-ci soit immédiatement coupée de façon convenable avant de commencer la pose du fil suivant (éventuellement voisin). En l'occurrence, il serait également possible, contrairement aux procédés et aux dispositifs connus, de poser dans des sens de pose opposés des fils à poser à la suite l'un de l'autre.Cutting tools can be integrated in the device both for the lengthening of the laid wires themselves (clamps, short circuit electrodes) and for cutting the substrate, for example a thermoplastic adhesive film (knife) , and be controlled with the process according to the invention. It is also possible, for example, to combine a laying unit with a cutting tool, so that after the laying of a defined length of wire, it is immediately cut conveniently before starting the laying of the wire. next (possibly neighbor). In this case, it would also be possible, unlike the known methods and devices, to pose in opposite directions of installation of the wires to be laid one after the other.
Si on le désire, on peut aussi produire un tracé sinueux des fils sans interruption et sans transformation du dispositif.If desired, it is also possible to produce a sinuous line of the son without interruption and without transformation of the device.
D'autres détails et avantages de l'objet de l'invention apparaîtront par la description détaillée qui suit d'un exemple de réalisation.Other details and advantages of the subject of the invention will become apparent from the following detailed description of an exemplary embodiment.
Dans les dessins schématiques annexés, fortement simplifiés de l'exemple de réalisation,
- la Figure 1
- montre une vue latérale d'un dispositif pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé conforme à l'invention ;
- la Figure 2
- montre une vue en plan d'un dispositif analogue.
- Figure 1
- shows a side view of a device for carrying out the method according to the invention;
- Figure 2
- shows a plan view of a similar device.
Dans la figure 1, un support rotatif en forme de tambour 1 est pourvu d'un entraînement direct électrique réversible 2, qui agit sur un axe de rotation 3 du support 1 monté à poste fixe dans un bâti et qui peut d'une part entraîner celui-ci autour de cet axe de rotation 3 dans les deux sens de rotation et d'autre part le commander et le positionner dans des allures de mouvement prédéterminées. Un substrat de matière plastique 4 est fixé sur la surface du support 1 avec des moyens adéquats (de nature connue).In FIG. 1, a rotary drum-shaped
Au-dessus du support 1, on a indiqué deux unités de pose 5 de même type. Elles sont destinées à poser des fils minces 6 sur le substrat de matière plastique 4. Elles sont fixées sur des curseurs 7, qui peuvent coulisser le long de rails de guidage 8 fixés sur le bâti, perpendiculairement au plan du dessin.Above the
On a en outre encore représenté schématiquement un autre outil 5' sur le côté gauche, à côté du support. Celui-ci est guidé sur un rail de guidage cylindrique 8', et son curseur 7' comporte un alésage adapté au rail de guidage 8'. Ce curseur ne peut pas seulement coulisser le long du rail de guidage 8', mais il peut aussi pivoter autour de celui-ci (entraînement de pivotement à arbre creux), de sorte que l'outil correspondant 5' peut aussi effectuer un mouvement de levée (pivotant) autour de celui-ci par rapport au support 1 et au substrat de matière plastique. Il est ainsi réglable en aller et retour entre une position de repos (soulevée ; dessinée en traits pleins) et une position de travail (en contact avec le substrat de matière plastique ; dessinée en traits mixtes). L'outil peut par exemple être un outil de chauffage, un outil de coupe et/ou un outil d'écriture et il ne vient alors en contact avec le substrat de matière plastique que lorsque sa fonction est réellement nécessaire.It is further shown schematically another tool 5 'on the left side, next to the support. This is guided on a cylindrical guide rail 8 ', and its slider 7' has a bore adapted to the guide rail 8 '. This slider can not only slide along the guide rail 8 ', but it can also pivot around it (hollow shaft pivot drive), so that the corresponding tool 5' can also perform a movement of lifting (pivoting) around it with respect to the
Naturellement, les unités de pose 5 peuvent également être réglables en hauteur par rapport à leur curseur 7, en particulier pour les amener avec leurs blocs 9 dans la position exactement correcte au-dessus de la surface du substrat, et en outre pour faciliter l'échange de bobines de fil et l'insertion de nouveaux fils 6.Naturally, the laying
La figure 2 illustre encore mieux la mobilité relative des unités de pose 5 et du support 1 avec le substrat de matière plastique 4. Pour simplifier, on n'a représenté dans la figure 2 qu'un rail de guidage 8. Celui-ci porte pourtant, en dehors de l'unité de pose 5, en plus du curseur 7 encore deux autres curseurs 7 dessinés en traits mixtes avec d'autres outils du type décrit plus haut. Le rail de guidage 8 s'étend parallèlement à l'axe 3 et dès lors perpendiculairement à la direction de travail proprement dite du support 1.FIG. 2 further illustrates the relative mobility of the laying
A gauche du dispositif, on a représenté une unité de commande programmable C, qui assure la coordination des mouvements du support 1 et des curseurs 7 avec les unités de pose et les autres outils. Elle est symboliquement raccordée à l'aide de lignes de commande et d'alimentation avec l'entraînement direct et le rail de guidage respectivement avec les curseurs associés à celui-ci.To the left of the device, there is shown a programmable control unit C, which coordinates the movements of the
Les unités de pose 5 conviennent pour poser les fils 6 en position correcte et sûre, indépendamment du sens du mouvement relatif entre le support d'une part et les curseurs d'autre part. Ceci est reproduit ici de façon très simplifiée du fait que les fils 6 sont guidés par un bloc 9, dont la face inférieure se place aussi près que possible de la surface du substrat de matière plastique 4.The laying
Dans le but de reproduire au moins en partie la multitude de fonctions exécutables de manière indépendante, le substrat de matière plastique 4 est ici divisé en trois sections sur la largeur du support 1, par deux paires de lignes en traits mixtes tracées verticalement.In order to reproduce at least in part the multitude of independently executable functions, the plastic substrate 4 is here divided into three sections along the width of the
Alors que tout à fait à gauche un segment de fil 6 déposé sur le substrat de matière plastique 4 a été déposé simplement en ligne droite, même si légèrement en oblique par rapport à l'axe 3 du support, le fil 6 actuellement manipulé par l'unité de pose 5 est déposé selon une ligne ondulée avec une amplitude croissante du haut vers le bas. La direction générale dans laquelle s'étend le fil déposé de façon ondulée forme un petit angle intermédiaire par rapport au fil déposé tout à fait à gauche.While quite left a segment of
Ceci est possible en faisant osciller en va et vient le curseur 7 avec l'unité de pose 5 sur le rail de guidage 8 suivant le tracé ondulé prédéterminé, comme cela est indiqué par une double flèche, tandis que le support 1 se déplace en dessous. Manifestement, il est possible de poser ainsi des fils selon des tracés quelconques, soit rectilignes, soit en ondulations, soit en boucles ou en méandres, ainsi que parallèlement et/ou avec des angles intermédiaires constants ou variables entre eux.This is possible by oscillating back and forth the
Des tracés sinueux sont possibles, si l'on utilise l'option de l'entraînement direct 2 de déplacer en oscillation en va et vient le support 1 lui-même (également indiquée à gauche par une double flèche) et de poursuivre en même temps la pose d'un fil 6. Cette variante est illustrée dans la partie centrale du substrat de matière plastique 4, où l'on produit sur le bord de celui-ci avec le fil 6 un motif ondulé se propageant parallèlement à l'axe 3 du support 1, uniquement par l'oscillation du support 1 et en même temps le mouvement de translation d'un curseur 7 portant une unité de pose en plus du bloc 9.Sinuous paths are possible, if one uses the option of the
Si l'on considère encore l'option de superposer au mouvement oscillant du support un mouvement également oscillant du curseur, on peut alors déposer pratiquement tous les motifs de fil sur le substrat de matière plastique ; ceux-ci peuvent d'ailleurs être réalisés dans un but purement décoratif, par exemple sans aucune fonction électrique.If one still considers the option of superimposing on the oscillating movement of the support an equally oscillating movement of the slider, one can then deposit practically all the patterns of thread on the plastic substrate; these can also be made for a purely decorative purpose, for example without any electrical function.
Dans la partie droite du substrat de matière plastique 4 enfin, on voit une ligne de coupe 10, qui est pratiquée ici à l'aide d'un autre curseur 7 équipé d'un outil de coupe 5', pour diviser le substrat de matière plastique 4.In the right part of the plastic substrate 4, finally, a cutting
