Definitions

  • This invention relates to a winding plant according to the pre-characterizing part of the main claim 1.
  • This plant is particularly intended, if not exclusively, to be placed downstream of a wire or band or strip rolling-mill plant, in which instead of fly-cutting the rolled-stock, the latter is wound in coils
  • US-A-3,796,389 discloses apparatus for strip winding placed in a feeding line with a split-system for two alternating winding-machines in the winding operation.
  • a similar plant is disclosed in DE-A-4035193 where substantially a flying cutting shear and splitting-system to split is provided that does not stop the advancement of the wire on either of the two winding-machines so that while winding is carried out in one, it is possible to proceed to the extraction of the coil in the other.
  • USB63186601 discloses a winding device with wire-entry guide system (37,39,40,42,43).
  • the winding process can involve stops due to tangling and the handling arrangements and coil storage are impractical and rather slow.
  • the EP1126933 solution is very complex and rather inefficient particularly with the limited speed of the reel opening and closing system that takes place with the system in the form of a flag-opening cap, with all the resultant drawbacks.
  • the complexity of the latter solution derives furthermore from the pick-up and movement system of the formed coil by means of ground guide-rails, trolleys and the like. All these shapes make the system very complex, cumbersome and difficult to access and maintain. In conclusion it is rather unreliable.
  • the operating speed is further limited by the complex structure of the systems for wire-entry guiding to engage the head of the wire at winding-start entry phase (guidance of the head of the wire to be engaged on the reel in starting forming the coil).
  • the two opposed semicircular wire-entry guide means 37,39,40 of US6318660 use a single large movement of approaching the reel or moving away from the reel by a rotational arm moved by respective cylinder (42,43) and coil control after the formation of the coil for pick-up.
  • the aim of the present invention is to avoid the aforementioned drawbacks and improve the performance of the plant, improve the quality and/or to reduce the cost of treated material.
  • the winding plant according to the present invention is concretized according to the characteristics of main claim 1.
  • the characteristics of the sub-claims refer to particularly advantageous solutions.
  • the winding plant includes a split system or splitting of the known type with a flying shear, schematized with (1) that deviates the wire on two lines, alternatively on one or on the other (2) towards one or the other of two respectively adjacent winding-machines (4), with the aid of suitable wire-guide means of the known type (3) for the coil-winding (B).
  • the coil transfer (5, ..., 521) Fig.1 A is of the portal type, namely with a column (51), with a flag type arm (52) that can be rotated (510), whose end (521) carries an openable vice with a pair of clamps or cross-opposite jaws (522) for the pick-up operation and axial extraction of the coil (B) from the winding-machine (AV) of the respective winding device (4, 4A) to transfer it (Fg2) from the stopped winding-machine to a posterior binding or strapping station by means of two known art opposite binding machines or tie-machines (6) Fig.2A, the coil transfer to respective storage of tied coils (B1) then being provided.
  • the mullion-transfer is therefore of the portal type and its rotating arm (52) can be raised and lowered by means of a dynamic-fluid piston (520) for the pick-up and deposition action, while the rotation is guaranteed by a respective motor/ratiomotor (510) at the base of the column on a respective thrust block (5101).
  • the lifting and lowering of the arm (52) is guaranteed by a box guide (5200) with pairs of opposite guide rolls (5201) operating in a sliding way on the column in double-T section.
  • the pick-up of the coils is facilitated by the clamping device with four clamps that self-centre on the coil (B), opening and closing by means of respective fluid operated cylinders for opening and closing (5220).
  • Winding Groups (4. 4A. 4B. 4C. Fig.4. 4A, 5. 6. 6A)
  • the two winding groups are identical and adjacent with a wire-winding reel (F) with an openable reel (AV) with a vertical axis.
  • Each group includes, in addition to the central winding reel (AV-41), two opposite coil-compacting apparatus (4B) in pairs of rolls (422) and two auto-introducing wire-guide jaws to automatically guide the wire at the beginning of winding (4C).
  • They include two respective articulated devices (42), placed on both sides of the winding reel (AV) with respect to the wire advancment line that fits sideways into the reel (AB).
  • the rolls are mounted on an articulated arm (421) hinged to the base structure (420) and operated in rotation from a position at a distance (Fig.4) to a position against the coil (B) Fig.6.
  • the movement occurs by means of a fluid-operated base-cylinder (4212) on the reacting arm (4210).
  • Said rolls (422, see Fig.6A) being mounted in pairs on a parallelogram (4222) on pairs of opposite arms mounted on support rolls (4220) and elastically moved under pressure by respective means with dynamic-fluid cylinder (4221).
  • the wire-guide group includes two semicircular opposite wire-entry guide jaws (431) hinged sideways and horizontally (430) and controlled by a fast-moving dynamic-fluid cylinder (4311) at the end of the jaw movement arm (4310) hinged sideways to the base of the machine (4301) and rotated in sending-away and approach by means of a reacting arm (43101) operated by a fluid-operated base-cylinder (43102).
  • the reel mandrel (AV) is composed of four sectors namely four nippers (410) hinged at the base (4121) of a rest-coil lower reel flange (412).
  • reel-mandrel movable sectors (410) are articulated (4112) to said axially movable sleeve (413).
  • the semicircular shaped reel mandrel sectors or nippers (410), are internally holed with channels (4102).
  • the channels convey on a connecting duct (41020) with a duct inside a double coaxial channel (41021,41022). In this way the cooling of the reel is guaranteed.
  • the reel (AV) rotates coaxially to the central axis by means of known art motorization with connection to a bevel-type drive (40, 401-402).
  • the start of coil-winding occurs by means of said movable semicircular opposite jaw device (431) in association with the wire-introduction system (AB) for the first adherent turns to the base side or flange of the reel (AV) of the winding-machine.
  • This jaw device (431) receives the wire (F) from the dispenser (2-3) while it is closely fitted to the reel mandrel (AV) and following the priming of the first turns, it must quickly free the coil forming area. To do this with maximum efficiency, the fast movement of rapid displacement (short rotation 4310, Fig. 5) is used.
  • the lock-out coil is also loosened internally and can easily be withdrawn upwards with the lifting of the arm (52) of the mullion-transfer (5) and rotated rearward for deposition in the binding-machine with two opposite binding groups (6).
