Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for cleaning a wire or the outer surface of a tube, suitably both with round cross-sections, by means of substantially parallel to and against the direction of the wire or the tube moving, textile or textile material strands, the wire or the tube surrounded in the form of at least one of these adjacent loops in a looping zone and optionally contain one or more cleaning agents, wherein the inlet and outlet angles of these strands of material relative to the wire or the outer surface of the tube is flat. For several adjacent loops, one can speak of helical fitting.
  • This technology has been used not only to uniformly apply a solid or liquid substance, such as paraffin, to lubricate the wire, but also to clean wire surfaces, such as those used in the art DE-A-100 01 591 described device and in the US-A-4,817,645 described method.
  • the problem underlying the invention is thus to overcome the disadvantages of the US-A-4,817,645 known method to eliminate or at least significantly reduce and avoid tearing of the textile or textile material strands.
  • this object is achieved.
  • the achievement of the object is that in a device having the features mentioned at least one device for adjusting and regulating the speed and the biasing force of the material strands is present.
  • the inventive method is accordingly characterized in that adjusting the speed and the biasing force of the textile or textile material strands and controls.
  • Such a device or method with an adjustability of the speed and the prestressing force of the material strands keeps the entry and exit angles of the strands of material relative to the wire or the outer surface of the tube small. This avoids that the material strand is tightening and tearing.
  • textile or textile-like material strand includes threads, yarns, tapes and flat tapes.
  • textile or textile material strand further includes braided, woven, knitted, knitted, crocheted, twisted and strands obtained by other fabric forming processes, which in turn include narrower than textile products, such as monofilaments, multifilaments with short or continuous fibers made by fabricating processes .
  • Textile or textile-like material strands preferred according to the invention are braided strands of material, very particularly preferably plait, square, round, ribbon and flat braids.
  • Braided material strands have the advantage that a possibly tattered single strand of a braided from several strands of material strand is blocked by intersections with other single strands and therefore the single strand does not postpone, as in threads or fabrics, and the entire material strand does not dissolve, as in crocheted or knitted strands of material would be the case.
  • Banded braids and flat braids, ie braided flat belts, are very particularly preferred as material strands. These have the advantage that they have a particularly smooth running behavior in the process according to the invention, a larger contact surface between the textile or textile-like Offer material strand and the wire or the outer surface of the tube and are particularly well suited for large wire or tube diameter.
  • the textile or textile-like material strands are band braids or flat braids each of 3 to 51 individual strands.
  • the textile or textile-like material strands are square braids or round braids each consisting of 4 to 32 individual strands.
  • Banded braids or flat braids used according to the invention as the textile or textile-like material strands preferably have a width of 0.5 to 50 mm, particularly preferably 2 to 30 mm.
  • Square meshes or round braids used according to the invention preferably have a strand diameter of 0.5 to 30 mm, more preferably 1 to 10 mm.
  • the textile or textile-like material strands square mesh or circular braids are provided with a centrally arranged in the longitudinal direction of the strand soul in the fabric, the soul is made of a different material than the individual strands used to produce the fabric.
  • the soul serves to absorb tensile forces.
  • braids in the braiding the soul does not run around with the individual strands to be braided and is therefore not woven, but is braided parallel to the direction and is thus suitable to absorb tensile forces without stretching.
  • textile or textile material strands covers all substances which are suitable for the specific purpose, as the person skilled in the art or from literature, such as Manuals, can be determined.
  • textile-like strands of material also includes binders interconnected with natural fibers, plastic fibers, metal fibers, glass fibers, ceramic fibers, staple fibers (short fibers), plastic films and similar materials which have the required properties for a particular use, such as tear strength, resistance to rubbing through, absorbency , Linting and other properties. Based on the knowledge of the required properties and the properties that certain substances or substance combinations have, the skilled person is able to produce or acquire materials for the material strands used according to the invention.
  • the textile or textile-like material strand is produced from a combination of individual strands of different materials or materials.
  • the selection of the different materials of the individual strands is expediently chosen so that the entire material strand receives a combination of advantageous properties.
  • aramid filament fibers may advantageously be combined with textured filaments of polyamide or with short fiber yarns of viscose for increased absorbency to increase tensile strength and wear resistance.
  • the strands of material must be receptive or porous to receive a liquid or solid substance, such as a lubricant, polish, abrasive or cleaning agent, and in the belt to the wire or the tube.
  • a liquid or solid substance such as a lubricant, polish, abrasive or cleaning agent
  • the material of the material strands may themselves have the desired properties and then need not have porosity, for example, to receive and bind an abrasive.
  • wrap zone means the range in which the single or multiple wraps of the wire or tube through the strand of material and thus the zone in which the desired cleaning is performed, begins and ends.
  • the material strand to support the cleaning effect may contain a cleaning agent in the form of a solvent and / or a grinding or polishing agent or other auxiliaries. As mentioned above, but the material strand itself can form the cleaning agent, which then abrasive abrasive on the wire or tube surface to be cleaned usually acts and polishing and optionally wipes liquid impurities or loosely adhering powder and / or absorbs.
  • the wrapping zone is between the Garneinlenkiques (Garneinlenkrolle) 3.2 and the Garnauslenk sensible (Garnauslenkrolle) 3.3.
  • the latter run counter to the running direction in the form of at least one loop formed by the material strand and resting against the wire or the tube in the opposite direction.
  • the textile or textile-like strand of material in a certain direction to move substantially parallel to the wire or tube, so it is not meant any small section, but the overall direction, because by the wrap the small Individual sections of the material strand can not run parallel to the wire or tube.
  • a friction force is mentioned. This is the force occurring in the course of the process in the course of the process, which occurs when the textile or textile-like material strand rests against the wire to be cleaned or the outer surface of a tube due to the friction between the two.
  • the frictional force depends on the properties of the materials, but also on the strength of the pressure of the flexible strand of material on the wire or sleeve.
  • the frictional force is expressed as the difference in pultrusion force of the textile or textile-like strand of material before and after the wrapping zone, i. So determined in the drawing at points 3.2 and 3.3.
  • the device according to the invention suitably has such means for adjusting and regulating the speed and the biasing force of the textile or textile material strands that the speed and the biasing force of the textile or textile material strands are mutually independently adjustable and adjustable.
  • this independent adjustment and regulation of the speed and the biasing force in such a way that both parameters are substantially constant.
  • This adjustment and regulation of the biasing force of the material strands is expediently carried out on the strand-feeding side of the wrapping zone, while the device for adjusting and regulating the speed of the textile or textile-like material strand takes place on the strand-winding side of the wrapping zone.
  • the adjustment and regulation can be done by hand, but it is expedient to provide an automatic control by specifying for each of the independently adjustable and controllable parameters a setpoint to which seeks to adjust in case of deviations of the actual value.
  • the adjustment and regulation of the biasing force of the material strand is expediently carried out with a motor with a high braking torque, preferably with a synchronous motor with permanent magnets.
  • the adjustment and control of the speed of the material strand is performed with at least one high torque motor, preferably a permanent magnet synchronous motor.
  • Increasing the strand prestressing is associated with increasing coefficient of friction with increasing frictional force and reduction of the strand prestressing with decreasing frictional force.
  • the friction force is adjusted by the number of wraps of the textile material strand around the wire or the tube. It increases with increasing number of wraps.
  • the frictional force should be set and maintained at a value at least 20% higher than the strand bias.
  • the propulsion speed of the textile or textile material strands should be significantly smaller than that of the wire to be cleaned or the tube to be cleaned.
  • the invention also relates to a method for cleaning a wire or the outer surface of a tube by means of one or more, optionally containing at least one detergent, substantially parallel to but running counter to the direction of the wire or tube running, textile or textile-like Material strands, which are run in the form of at least one voltage applied to the wire or the tube loop, wherein the speed and the biasing force of the textile or textile-like material strands are adjusted and regulated.
  • a cleaning agent it is expedient to use at least one solvent and / or grinding or polishing agent or other auxiliary agent.
  • the speed and the biasing force can be set and controlled substantially independently of each other and are suitably kept substantially constant.
  • the method features can be found in the above device features.
  • the cleaning measure is expedient for the cleaning measure to be preceded or followed by a coating of the wire or tube with which the wire or tube, on the one hand, and the textile or textile-like material strands, on the other hand, run in the same direction, of which material strands a liquid and / or solid material in or on the wire is added thereto.
  • a cleaning device upstream or downstream device that logs in principle according to the same characteristics as the device according to the present application, but with in the same direction and not counter-expiring strand of material and wire / tube.
  • Procedural measures is created in the preferably upstream treatment with a similar structure, as in the case of the invention, the prerequisite to apply a coating on the upstream device with an abrasive or other auxiliary to the wire.
  • the wire With a corresponding downstream device, the wire can be coated with a liquid or solid lubricant and / or liquid or solid protective agent.
  • the illustration shows the course of the textile strand and the wire as a flow chart.
  • the textile strand is withdrawn from one or more supply reels 4.1 and passed through the brake 4.2 to the engine block for controlling the strand bias 2. There, the strand is passed over a pulley 2.7 on the drive roller 2.2 and placed to avoid slippage several times to this and the roll package 2.3.
  • Drive roller and roller package form a mechanical unit in the form of acting against the spring 2.5 dancer. Its deflection is detected by the sensor 2.6 as a strand bias. The actual phase bias is compared with the user-settable setpoint. If the actual value is too high or low, the speed of the drive motor 2.1 is increased or decreased.
  • the strand is deflected via the stranding pulley 3.2 at a shallow angle parallel to the wire in the wrapping zone 3.
  • the wire runs between the guide rollers 3.4 and 3.5 against the strand movement.
  • Guided accordingly to the strand deflection rollers 3.1.1 one can loop the strand on both sides of the belt unit around the wire by turning the belt unit 3.1.
  • friction between the strand and wire increases, based on the operator-adjustable strand bias.
  • the used strand is again deflected away from the wire at a shallow angle and guided to the engine block for controlling the strand speed 1.
  • the strand is placed several times around a drive roller 1.2 and a roll package 1.3 to avoid slippage.
  • the synchronous motor 1.1 the strand is constantly advanced with the speed set by the operator in the device control.
  • Drive roller and roller package form a mechanical unit in the form of acting against the spring 1.5 dancer. Its deflection is detected by the sensor 1.6 as a strand tension after the wrapping zone. This is compared in the main unit 5 with a user-settable multiple of the strand bias and evaluated for a fault alarm.
  • the strand passes through another deflection roller 1.7 the dancer unit for the winding 5.1, which turns on and off the motor 5.8 of the waste coil 5.9 to maintain a nearly constant strand voltage.
  • the strand is evenly distributed over the width of the waste coil 5.9.
