Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zur Reinigung von an einem Roboterarm angeordneten und beim Falzen entlang eines Falzflansches geführten Falzrollen sowie auf eine Reinigungsstation gemäß Anspruch 8.The invention relates to a method for cleaning folding rollers arranged on a robot arm and guided along a folding flange during folding and to a cleaning station according to
Blechfalzverbindungen werden bei der Automobilfertigung oftmals mit Industrierobotern erzeugt, um sich möglichst rasch unterschiedlich gestalteten Bauteilen anpassen zu können. Beim Falzen drückt der Industrieroboter mit der am Roboterarm angeordneten Falzrolle ein Außenblech auf ein Innenblech (vgl. DE 100 11 854 A1 und DE 299 10 871 U1).Blechfalzverbindungen are often produced in the automotive industry with industrial robots in order to adapt as quickly as possible differently shaped components. During folding, the industrial robot presses with the folding roller arranged on the robot arm an outer panel onto an inner panel (compare DE 100 11 854 A1 and DE 299 10 871 U1).
Üblicherweise wird zur dauerhaften Haltbarkeit des Falzflansches zusätzlich ein Klebstoff aufgebracht. Dieser Klebstoff kann beim Falzen zu einer Verunreinigung der Laufflächen und der Stirnflächen der Falzrolle führen. Beim Falzen von Leichtmetallen, insbesondere von Blechen aus Aluminium kann es auch zum Anhaften und Aufbau von Aluminium auf der Falzrolle führen.Usually, an adhesive is additionally applied to the permanent durability of the folding flange. This adhesive can lead to contamination of the running surfaces and the end faces of the seaming roller during folding. When folding light metals, in particular sheets of aluminum, it can also lead to the adhesion and buildup of aluminum on the seaming roll.
Aus der DE 100 01 205 C1 ist ein gattungsgemäßes Verfahren zur Reinigung der Falzrollen bekannt, wobei in einer Reingungsvorrichtung die Falzrollen relativ zu Reinigungswerkzeugen gedreht werden.From DE 100 01 205 C1 a generic method for cleaning the folding rollers is known, wherein in a cleaning device, the folding rollers are rotated relative to cleaning tools.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, ein Verfahren und eine Reinigungsstation zum automatischen Reinigen von Falzrollen beim Roboterrollfalzen vorzuschlagen, wobei die Falzrollen auf einfache Weise angetrieben werden.The invention is based on the object to propose a method and a cleaning station for automatically cleaning folding rollers in Roboterroll folds, wherein the folding rollers are driven in a simple manner.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird gemäß Kennzeichen des Anspruches 1 vorgeschlagen, dass die am Roboterarm befestigte Falzrolle in einer vorzugsweise stationären Reinigungsstation zur Reinigung mittels Reiberad angetrieben und dabei die Lauffläche und/oder die Stirnflächen der Falzrolle vorzugsweise mechanisch mit Reinigungswerkzeugen und/oder mit flüssigen Reinigungsmitteln gereinigt werden. Die Reinigungswerkzeuge können insbesondere aus Bürsten, Schabern oder Meißeln bestehen, die während des Reinigungsvorganges mit insbesondere konstanter Kraft gegen die Lauffläche und/oder Stirnflächen der Falzrollen durch Bewegung in x-, y- und z-Richtung gepresst werden können. Während des, vorzugsweise automatischen Reinigungsvorganges werden die Falzrollen mittels an der Reinigungsstation angeordneter Reibräder mit vorzugsweise umkehrbarer Drehrichtung angetrieben. Die Reibräder greifen dabei zweckmäßigerweise an einer Stirnfläche der Falzrolle an und zwar möglichst dort, wo sich erfahrungsgemäß keine Schmutzansätze an der Falzrolle bilden. Auf diese Weise wird dann eine Verschmutzung dieses angetriebenen Reibrades vermieden. Mit diesem angetriebenen Reibrad können insbesondere Falzrollen mit unterschiedlichen Abmessungen und Formen angetrieben werden. Dadurch ist insbesondere auch eine Nachrüstung einer vorhandenen Rollfalzanlage mit der erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsstation möglich. Diese Reinigungsstation muss dabei lediglich in der Nähe der Rollfalzanlage innerhalb des Wirkungsbereiches des Roboterarmes angeordnet sein. Die Reinigungsstation besitzt dabei eine Reihe von Reinigungswerkzeugen, die gleichzeitig oder nacheinander während des Reinigungsvorganges gegen die zu reinigenden Laufflächen und/oder Stirnflächen der Falzrollen verfahrbar und vorzugsweise dagegen pressbar sind. Die Reinigungsstation besitzt zweckmäßigerweise eine Schmutzauffangwanne, die unterhalb des Arbeitsbereiches der Reinigungswerkzeuge angeordnet ist, damit die Schmutzpartikel direkt von dieser Auffangwanne aufgefangen werden können. Darüber hinaus können auch die Reinigungswerkzeuge selbst in ihrer Position oberhalb der Auffangwanne mit mechanischen und/oder flüssigen Reinigungsmitteln gesäubert werden.To solve this problem, it is proposed according to the characterizing part of
Die Erfindung wird anhand der beigefügten Figuren 1 und 4 beispielsweise näher erläutert. Es zeigen
- Fig. 1 eine perspektivische Ansicht der erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsstation
- Fig. 2 einen vergrößerten Ausschnitt zu Fig. 1
- Fig. 3 eine Draufsicht zu Fig. 1 und
- Fig. 4 eine Seitenansicht.
- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the cleaning station according to the invention
- 2 shows an enlarged detail of FIG. 1
- Fig. 3 is a plan view of Fig. 1 and
- Fig. 4 is a side view.
In den Figuren ist der Roboterarm, an dem die Falzrollen 2, 3 befestigt sind, nicht dargestellt. Die Figuren zeigen lediglich diese Falzrollen 2 und 3 in ihrer Position während des Reinigungsvorganges in der Reinigungsstation 1. Entsprechend den Konstruktionen nach dem oben genannten Stand der Technik kann der Arm des Roboters insbesondere an den äußeren Stirnseiten der Falzrollen 2, 3 angeordnet sein, wobei sie über eine nach Fig. 1 waagerechte Drehachse mit dem Roboterarm verbunden sein können. In Fig. 1 sind insbesondere zwei Falzrollen 2, 3 dargestellt, wie sie z.B. aus der oben genannten DE 100 11 854 A1 als Stand der Technik bekannt sind. Diese beiden Falzrollen 2, 3 werden über ein gemeinsames Reibrad 6 angetrieben, dessen äußerer Umfang an den beiden Stirnflächen 12 der Falzrollen 2 und 3 angreift, wobei die Drehachse des Reibrades 6 im rechten Winkel zur Drehachse der Falzrollen 2 und 3 angeordnet ist. Das Reibrad 6 wird mit Hilfe der Antriebsvorrichtung 4 und über die Antriebswelle 5 drehzahlgesteuert angetrieben. In der Regel kommen die einzelnen Falzrollen 2, 3 nacheinander mit dem Reibrad 6 in Eingriff. Auf der dem Reibrad 6 gegenüberliegenden Seite der Reinigungsstation 1 sind verschiedene Reinigungswerkzeuge 7, vorzugsweise in x-, y- und z-Richtung verschieblich angeordnet. In Figur 2 sind drei Reinigungswerkzeuge 7 dargestellt, die die Laufflächen 11 von drei Falzrollen reinigen. Die Schaber oder Meißel am vorderen Ende der Reinigungswerkzeuge 7 werden durch Einsatz von Druckregelventilen von den Verstellzylindern 9 mit möglichst konstanter Presskraft gegen die zu reinigenden Flächen an den Falzrollen 2, 3 gepresst, sodass bei gleichzeitiger Drehung der Falzrollen 2, 3 die Schmutzansätze auf den zu reinigenden Flächen quasi durch eine Schälbewegung entfernt werden. Grundsätzlich kann durch diese mechanische Reinigung mittels Schaber oder Meißel eine reinigungs- und lösungsmittelfreie Reinigung vorgenommen werden. Die Reinigung mittels Schaber oder Meißel ist im Vergleich zur Bürstenreinigung verschleißfreier. In bestimmten Fällen kann aber auch ersatzweise oder zusätzlich als Reinigungswerkzeug eine Bürste verwendet werden. Die bei der Reinigung der Falzrollen 2, 3 und auch bei der eventuellen erforderlichen Reinigung der Reinigungswerkzeuge 7 mit Hilfe des Abstreifers 13 anfallenden Schmutzmittel und Reinigungsflüssigkeiten werden mit Hilfe der an der Reinigungsstation 1 angeordneten Schmutzauffangwanne 8 aufgefangen. Die Reinigungsstation 1 kann auf einer stationären Stütze 10 oder einer beliebigen Konsole an der Rollfalzanlage befestigt sein.In the figures, the robot arm to which the
