Abstract
Description
L'invention est relative à un procédé d'impression de décors en particulier sur des substrats de dimensions variables, notamment en verre.The invention relates to a process for printing decorations, in particular on substrates of variable dimensions, in particular made of glass.
Le procédé d'impression est du genre selon lequel l'application de peinture est assurée avec un pochoir tramé rotatif en forme de cylindre creux qui appuie et roule contre le substrat à imprimer, la longueur axiale du pochoir étant supérieure à la largeur maximale des substrats à imprimer, le pochoir étant alimenté en peinture ou encre sur toute sa longueur, des moyens de récupération étant prévus en aval de la zone d'impression pour recueillir la peinture qui n'a pas été transférée sur le substrat.The printing process is of the kind in which the application of paint is provided with a rotary hollow cylinder-shaped stencil which presses and rolls against the substrate to be printed, the axial length of the stencil being greater than the maximum width of the substrates to print, the stencil being supplied with paint or ink over its entire length, recovery means being provided downstream of the printing area to collect paint that has not been transferred to the substrate.
Une racle peut être placée à l'intérieur du cylindre creux pour presser la peinture dans la zone inférieure du cylindre.A squeegee can be placed inside the hollow cylinder to squeeze the paint into the lower area of the cylinder.
Un tel procédé est connu d'après
L'invention a pour but, surtout, d'offrir un procédé d'impression de décors sur des substrats qui permet d'éliminer l'excès de peinture sur le pochoir rotatif dans des conditions améliorées, avec un frottement réduit et sous un encombrement également réduit.The object of the invention is, above all, to provide a method for printing decorations on substrates which makes it possible to eliminate the excess paint on the rotary stencil under improved conditions, with reduced friction and under a space requirement. reduced.
Selon l'invention, le procédé d'impression de décors sur des substrats, du genre défini précédemment, est caractérisé en ce que les moyens de récupération comprennent des moyens pneumatiques d'extraction disposés au voisinage du cylindre creux et des moyens pour recueillir la peinture extraite.According to the invention, the process for printing decorations on substrates, of the kind defined above, is characterized in that the recovery means comprise pneumatic extraction means arranged in the vicinity of the hollow cylinder and means for collecting the paint extracted.
Selon l'invention, les moyens pneumatiques d'extraction travaillent par aspiration et sont situés soit à l'intérieur soit à l'extérieur du cylindre, de même que les moyens pour recueillir la peinture extraite. A ces moyens sont avantageusement associés des moyens de soufflage qui contribuent au décollement des résidus de peinture et qui sont situés sur la face opposée du cylindre, respectivement à l'extérieur et à l'intérieur de celui-ci. De préférence, les moyens d'aspiration et les moyens pour recueillir la peinture sont situés à l'extérieur du cylindre.According to the invention, the pneumatic extraction means work by suction and are located either inside or outside the cylinder, as well as the means for collecting the extracted paint. To these means are advantageously associated blowing means which contribute to the separation of the paint residues and which are located on the opposite face of the cylinder, respectively outside and inside thereof. Preferably, the suction means and the means for collecting the paint are located outside the cylinder.
La position des moyens de récupération est indépendante de celle d'une racle placée à l'intérieur du cylindre creux pour presser la peinture dans la zone inférieure du cylindre.The position of the recovery means is independent of that of a squeegee placed inside the hollow cylinder for pressing the paint in the lower area of the cylinder.
Les moyens de récupération sont disposés dans une zone angulaire qui correspond aux trois quarts de circonférence situés immédiatement en aval de la zone d'impression ayant pour point de départ la racle. La position des moyens de récupération dans ladite zone dépend de la viscosité de la peinture utilisée : une faible viscosité autorise une position éloignée de la racle. En revanche, si la viscosité est élevée, il est avantageux de disposer les moyens de récupération le plus proche possible de la racle, de préférence dans le premier quart de la zone d'impression.The recovery means are disposed in an angular zone which corresponds to three quarters of a circumference immediately downstream of the printing zone having for its starting point the doctor blade. The position of the recovery means in said zone depends on the viscosity of the paint used: a low viscosity allows a position remote from the doctor blade. On the other hand, if the viscosity is high, it is advantageous to arrange the recovery means as close as possible to the doctor blade, preferably in the first quarter of the printing zone.
Avantageusement les moyens pour récupérer la peinture extraite sont situés à un niveau inférieur à celui de la zone d'extraction de la peinture de sorte que la gravité favorise la récupération de la peinture. En particulier, les moyens pneumatiques d'extraction sont disposés dans une zone située au-dessous du plan horizontal passant par l'axe du cylindre, en aval de la zone d'impression.Advantageously, the means for recovering the extracted paint are located at a level lower than that of the extraction zone of the paint so that the gravity favors the recovery of the paint. In particular, the pneumatic extraction means are disposed in an area below the horizontal plane passing through the axis of the cylinder, downstream of the printing zone.
L'invention concerne également un dispositif d'impression de décors en particulier sur des substrats de dimensions variables, notamment en verre, comportant un pochoir tramé rotatif en forme de cylindre creux qui appuie et roule contre le substrat à imprimer, la longueur axiale du pochoir étant supérieure à la largeur maximale du substrat à imprimer, le pochoir étant alimenté en peinture sur toute sa longueur, des moyens de récupération étant prévus en aval de la zone d'impression pour recueillir la peinture qui n'a pas été transférée sur le substrat, caractérisé en ce que les moyens de récupération comprennent des moyens pneumatiques d'extraction pour extraire la peinture subsistant dans des zones du pochoir et des moyens pour recueillir la peinture extraite.The invention also relates to a device for printing decorations, in particular on substrates of variable dimensions, in particular made of glass, comprising a rotary hollow cylinder-shaped stencil which presses and rolls against the substrate to be printed, the axial length of the stencil being greater than the maximum width of the substrate to be printed, the stencil being supplied with paint over its entire length, recovery means being provided downstream of the printing zone to collect the paint which has not been transferred onto the substrate , characterized in that the recovery means comprise pneumatic extraction means for extracting the paint remaining in areas of the stencil and means for collecting the extracted paint.
De préférence les moyens pneumatiques d'extraction travaillent par aspiration et sont situés à l'extérieur du cylindre, en particulier au-dessous du plan horizontal passant par l'axe géométrique du cylindre.Preferably the pneumatic extraction means work by suction and are located outside the cylinder, in particular below the horizontal plane passing through the geometric axis of the cylinder.
L'invention consiste, mises à part les dispositions exposées ci-dessus, en un certain nombre d'autres dispositions dont il sera plus explicitement question ci-après à propos d'un exemple de réalisation particulier décrit avec référence au dessin annexé, mais qui n'est nullement limitatif. Sur ce dessin :
- Fig.1 est une vue schématique en coupe verticale d'un dispositif d'impression selon l'invention, et
- Fig.2 est une vue en plan schématique du dispositif de Fig.1.
- FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic view in vertical section of a printing device according to the invention, and
- Fig.2 is a schematic plan view of the device of Fig.1.
En se reportant au dessin, on peut voir un dispositif 1 pour l'impression de décors sur des substrats 2, 2a de formes et de tailles variables. Les substrats ont généralement une surface plane mais peuvent aussi présenter une surface incurvée ayant un angle de courbure faible, inférieur à une dizaine de degrés, de préférence inférieur à quelques degrés. Par angle de courbure de la surface incurvée, il faut comprendre l'angle maximum qui peut être formé entre deux plans tangents en deux points différents de la surface. Les substrats sont de préférence en une matière résistant au traitement de transformation de la peinture, qui peut être une exposition sous des radiations ultraviolettes (peinture UV-réticulable) ou une cuisson, par exemple à une température de l'ordre de 100 à 250°C (peinture organique), ou jusqu'à environ 600°C (émail). Les substrats sont notamment en verre, mais peuvent être en métal, en céramique ou en matière plastique, par exemple en polycarbonate ou en polyacrylate.Referring to the drawing, there can be seen a device 1 for printing decorations on
Le dispositif 1 comprend un pochoir 3 tramé rotatif en forme de cylindre creux 4, ou tambour, d'axe géométrique X-X, muni d'un écran de sérigraphie rigide.The device 1 comprises a
Les substrats 2, 2a sont placés sur un convoyeur 5 qui défile sous le cylindre creux 4 suivant le sens de la flèche A, c'est-à-dire de gauche à droite selon Fig.1. Le cylindre creux 4 est monté sur un arbre horizontal 6 (supporté par des moyens non représentés) et est entraîné en rotation dans le sens de la flèche G (sens contraire d'horloge selon Fig.1) de manière à rouler sans glisser contre le substrat 2.The
La longueur axiale L (Fig.2) du pochoir 3 est supérieure à la largeur (dimension parallèle à l'axe du cylindre 4) maximale m du substrat 2 à imprimer, de sorte que l'impression du décor peut aller jusqu'aux bords longitudinaux du substrat 2.The axial length L (FIG. 2) of the
Le pochoir 3 est alimenté, à l'intérieur du cylindre creux 4, en peinture P sur toute sa longueur par des moyens non représentés. Une racle 7 est placée et maintenue à l'intérieur du cylindre creux 4 pour presser la peinture dans la zone inférieure du cylindre creux, pratiquement suivant la génératrice inférieure.The
Le décor à imprimer peut être constitué d'un ou plusieurs motifs unis, par exemple sous forme d'à-plat(s) et/ou à répétition. L'écran de sérigraphie qui permet d'obtenir le décor est rigide et sans couture, et peut être composé d'une plaque métallique perforée au décor voulu, d'un tissu formé de fils en une matière organique, par exemple du polyamide ou un polyester, d'un tissu métallisé, par exemple obtenu par galvanisation du tissu de fils organiques précité, ou d'un tissu de fils métalliques. La longueur L du cylindre creux peut être de plusieurs mètres, jusqu'à environ 4 mètres, de préférence jusqu'à 3 mètres. La circonférence du cylindre creux peut être supérieure à 1 mètre, avantageusement de l'ordre de 1,5 mètre. La vitesse d'impression peut être de 7 à 8 mètres par minute.The decor to be printed may consist of one or more plain patterns, for example in the form of flat (s) and / or repetition. The silkscreen screen which makes it possible to obtain the decoration is rigid and seamless, and may be composed of a perforated metal plate with the desired decoration, of a fabric formed of yarns made of an organic material, for example polyamide or a polyester, a metallized fabric, for example obtained by galvanizing the above-mentioned organic fabric, or a fabric of metal son. The length L of the hollow cylinder can be several meters, up to about 4 meters, preferably up to 3 meters. The circumference of the hollow cylinder may be greater than 1 meter, advantageously of the order of 1.5 meters. The print speed can be 7 to 8 meters per minute.
Des moyens de récupération R sont prévus en aval de la zone d'impression I suivant le sens de rotation G du cylindre creux 4, pour extraire la peinture subsistant dans les zones du pochoir 3 qui se trouvent à l'extérieur du substrat 2. En effet, cette peinture n'a pas été transférée sur le substrat. Les moyens de récupération R s'étendent tout le long du cylindre creux 4.R recovery means are provided downstream of the printing zone I in the direction of rotation G of the hollow cylinder 4, to extract the paint remaining in the areas of the
Les moyens de récupération R comprennent des moyens pneumatiques d'extraction 8 notamment formés par une buse d'aspiration dont l'entrée 9 est située au voisinage du cylindre creux 4, cette buse 8 étant inclinée vers le bas depuis l'entrée 9.The recovery means R comprise pneumatic extraction means 8 in particular formed by a suction nozzle whose
La buse 8 est située au-dessous du plan horizontal H passant par l'axe X-X du cylindre creux, et est reliée à une tubulure T d'aspiration , elle-même raccordée à une source de dépression non représentée. Les moyens de récupération comprennent en outre des moyens 10 pour recueillir la peinture extraite. Ces moyens 10 sont avantageusement formés par un réceptacle situé dans le prolongement de la buse 8, à un niveau inférieur. Ainsi la gravité agit essentiellement dans le même sens que l'aspiration, ce qui favorise la récupération de la peinture.The
On peut installer, au niveau de l'entrée 9 de la buse, un distributeur 11 de liquide diluant pour éviter un séchage trop rapide de la peinture extraite.It is possible to install, at the
En variante, les moyens R peuvent comprendre une buse de soufflage d'air sous pression située à l'intérieur du cylindre creux 4 tandis que le réceptacle 10 serait situé à l'extérieur du cylindre creux dans le prolongement du jet d'air sensiblement radial, dirigé vers le bas, provenant de la buse.As a variant, the means R may comprise a pressurized air blowing nozzle located inside the hollow cylinder 4 while the
Les moyens de récupération R sont disposés de préférence dans une zone angulaire qui correspond au quart de circonférence situé immédiatement en aval de la zone d'impression I.The recovery means R are preferably arranged in an angular zone which corresponds to the quarter of a circumference situated immediately downstream of the printing zone I.
Le fonctionnement résulte immédiatement des explications qui précèdent.The operation follows immediately from the preceding explanations.
Comme visible sur Fig.2, le substrat 2 en passant sous le cylindre creux 4 est imprimé, par exemple sur l'ensemble de sa surface E. La peinture située dans les zones 4a, 4b du cylindre creux à l'extérieur du contour du substrat 2 est récupérée par la buse d'aspiration 8, ce qui évite des impressions floues ultérieures dues à un excédent de peinture.As visible in FIG. 2, the
La peinture en excès ne reste pas longtemps exposée à l'air de sorte que les problèmes de séchage sont limités, le risque d'encrassement de l'écran sérigraphique est réduit.The excess paint does not remain exposed for a long time so that drying problems are limited, the risk of fouling of the screen is reduced.
Le dispositif de récupération de la peinture en excès est peu encombrant. On peut faire varier aisément la puissance de récupération en agissant sur la puissance d'aspiration.The device for recovering excess paint is compact. The power of recovery can easily be varied by acting on the suction power.
La récupération pneumatique, notamment par aspiration, peut se faire sans contact direct en maintenant la buse 8 à faible distance du cylindre creux 4 de manière à réduire au minimum l'usure du tamis de sérigraphie. Plus la distance est faible, meilleure est l'efficacité de l'aspiration.The pneumatic recovery, particularly by suction, can be done without direct contact by keeping the
La récupération est située à distance de la zone d'impression et n'agit pas sur cette zone.Recovery is located away from the print area and does not act on this area.
