Definitions
- the present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for expanding elongated, moving in the longitudinal direction, at least partially flat metal elements.
- the device according to the invention and the method flat metal elements, as described in German Patent Application 102 59 307.8, be widened.
- the flat metal elements described in this prepublished German patent application are used, for example, for the production of profile elements, in particular of upright or plaster profiles.
- the metal elements have incisions in their middle region which are shaped in such a way that when the metal elements are pulled apart between the incisions, metal regions present are folded over so that ultimately a widening of the metal element takes place.
- the pattern required for the folding process can be of various kinds. A variety of such different patterns are described in German Patent Application 102 59 307.8 and shown in particular in Figs. 1-22 of this application.
- the metal elements are at least in the region of the pattern formed flat. In other areas, for example, in the area of the longitudinal sides of the metal elements, the metal elements may also differ from the flat shape. In particular, thickenings, projections or bent regions can be formed on the longitudinal sides. For example, the metal elements may already be preformed as U-shaped or C-shaped profiles.
- the device or the method should be usable in continuous operation.
- a device of the type mentioned above which comprises at least two opposing clamping sections, one of which for holding clamping a first longitudinal side of the metal element and the other for holding clamped one of the first longitudinal side of the metal element opposite second longitudinal side of the Metal element is arranged and formed, wherein the clamping portions are respectively provided on a support unit, by means of which the clamping portions during the forward movement of the metal element automatically moved apart substantially perpendicular to the direction of movement of the metal element.
- a first longitudinal side of the metal element in a first clamping portion and a second longitudinal side of the metal element in a second, the first Klemmab- section clamping portion clamped holding, the clamping portions are each provided on a support unit through which the clamping portions during the Forward movement of the metal element automatically be moved apart substantially perpendicular to the direction of movement of the metal element.
- the opposing clamping portions thus form between them an expansion area for the metal element, in which the distance between the opposing clamping portions increases.
- the widening of the metal element occurs by increasing the lateral distance between the opposing clamping sections which each pull apart the opposite longitudinal sides of the metal element.
- the device according to the invention is very robust due to its simple structure and thereby also for a high throughput suitable. Furthermore, it is achieved by the clamping sections that the widening of the moving metal element can take place in continuous operation, so that the required throughput is ensured. In principle, however, it is also possible for the expansion to take place during intermittent operation, for example also in a follow-on composite tool. For the purposes of the present application, it is thus not absolutely necessary for the metal element to move forward simultaneously with the widening. For example, the forward movement of the metal element during intermittent operation comprises repeated stoppage phases in which the expansion can take place.
- the widening during a standstill phase during intermittent operation is therefore also to be understood as widening during the forward movement, since the individual standstill phases also represent parts of the entire forward movement of the metal element. With a correspondingly short length of the metal element, this can also be widened simultaneously over its entire length, ie in the production of boards.
- the forward movement in this case comprises the feeding, the stoppage phase during which the metal element is widened, and the removal of the metal element.
- the longitudinal sides of the metal element need not have folds or other attack elements, in which, for example, pull elements engage to pull the metal element.
- the longitudinal sides can be made completely smooth, whereby the possible applications of the expanded metal elements are very wide and complex and associated with additional costs pretreatment of the metal element for generating attack points can be omitted.
- the clamping sections can do so be formed that already a free longitudinal strip of 0.5 to 5mm (for example, about 1, 1.5, 2 or 3mm) on both longitudinal sides of the metal element is sufficient to clamp each of these in the clamping portions and pull the metal element apart.
- the clamping portions each comprise a contact region and a clamping region, wherein the longitudinal sides of the metal element between the contact region and the clamping region can be clamped.
- the clamping area can advantageously be formed by an eccentric. The formation of the clamping area by an eccentric makes the entire device very robust and at the same time easy, since the eccentric can be mounted on a bearing portion of the clamping portion, that automatically increases the clamping force generated by the eccentric in the movement apart of the clamping sections. The higher the force acting on the metal element when moving apart, the more firmly the metal element is clamped in the clamping section.
- the clamping area is biased by spring bias against the investment area.
- spring bias any suitable type of springs, such as coil springs, gas springs or other springs.
- a hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, magnetic or other mechanical bias of the clamping area against the contact area as well as any other suitable Vortensart are basically conceivable.
- Such a bias is also useful in conjunction with an eccentric design of the clamping area when the eccentric by the bias, for example, when detecting the metal element does not yet develop the full clamping force. Due to the pretensioning, the eccentric can be brought automatically into the clamping position so far that ultimately the holding of the metal element is achieved solely due to the clamping force.
- the clamping sections each comprise a multiplicity of clamping elements.
- a control section in particular in the form of a slotted guide, is provided, with which the clamping elements are automatically brought from a release position into a clamping position when moving the metal element.
- a further control section may be provided, with which the clamping elements are automatically brought back from the clamping position to the release position after expansion of the metal element during further movement of the metal element. After release of the metal element, the clamping elements can remain in their release position or brought back into the clamping position, but without clamped metal element. Only just before the clamping elements come back into contact with the metal element, it must be ensured that the clamping elements are in the release position. It can be reached again by appropriate control sections.
- control sections designed to move the clamping elements into the clamping position can be designed to be movable so that different positions of the clamping elements, which are generated, for example, by different thicknesses of the metal element or by differential penetration of the metal elements into the clamping elements, can be compensated.
- the tax sections for example, be mounted hydraulically or against a spring force movable.
- the carrier unit is in each case designed as a circulating carrier unit, in particular as an endless, circulating carrier unit.
- the design of the carrier unit as a peripheral carrier unit ensures that a metal element of any length can be widened with the device according to the invention.
- At least two circumferential support units are arranged on each longitudinal side of the metal element, wherein each longitudinal side of the metal element is clamped in each case between at least two support units.
- each longitudinal side of the metal element is clamped, for example, between a carrier unit arranged above and below the metal element.
- the clamping sections can thus preferably be formed integrally with the carrier unit. In principle, however, a separate design of the clamping sections is possible.
- At least one circumferential support unit is arranged on each longitudinal side of the metal element, wherein each longitudinal side of the metal element is clamped in each case in the clamping sections provided on the circulating support units.
- the longitudinal sides of the metal element are thus not clamped between two different carrier units, but each longitudinal side is clamped in each case in clamping sections, which are arranged, for example, laterally of the metal elements along the longitudinal sides running on carrier units.
- the carrier units are designed as caterpillar conveyors. This can for example be designed as a caterpillar track. Basically, a training as a band, as a belt or other suitable in particular for clamping peripheral carrier unit is conceivable.
- an inlet region for the metal element in which the opposing clamping sections have a substantially constant distance from one another, wherein an expansion region adjoins the inlet region, in which the distance between the opposing clamping sections increases. Due to the constant spacing of the clamping sections in the inlet region, it is ensured that the metal element can first be securely gripped by the clamping sections without any other forces, in particular in the lateral expansion direction, acting on the metal element. Only after the metal element has been securely grasped by the clamping sections after passing through the lead-in area does the widening of the metal element take place by increasing the lateral distance between the opposing clamping sections, which pull apart the opposite longitudinal sides of the metal element. Preferably, the distance of the opposing clamping portions in the expansion region increases substantially continuously, so that a continuous stress of the metal element is ensured, which leads to a uniform expansion of the metal element.
- the carrier units are designed as mutually inclined, rotating disks, tires or wheels.
- the clamping sections can be formed in each case in the outer edge region of the rotating disks, tires or wheels.
- the investment areas of the clamping portions are formed by the peripheral surfaces of the rotating disks, tires or wheels.
- the expansion of the metal element by the angular position of the rotating disks, tires or wheels by the metal element is clamped in the region of the inclined edge portions of the support units by the clamping portions, is pulled apart by the diverging peripheral surfaces of the rotating support units and of the Clamping sections is released again before the maximum distance between the mutually inclined rotating carrier units is exceeded.

- the detail shown in Fig. 1 is significantly shortened compared to the actual length of the metal element 1 is formed.
- the metal element 1 forms a long metal strip, which may for example have a length of several 100 m.
- the metal element 1 is already described in the German patent application 102 59 307.8, to which reference is explicitly made.
- the sections 3 are arranged so that the halves 4, 5 of the metal element 1 shown in FIG. 1 above or below the sections 3 are lowered. can be pulled apart to the longitudinal axis 2, so that a resulting metal element is produced with increased width.
- a corresponding folding process is shown in detail in FIGS. 3 to 5. Further possible cutting patterns are shown by way of example in FIG. 2.
- FIG. 8 In order to expand the known metal elements 1 at high speed as shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, according to the invention, for example, a device according to FIG. 8 is used.
- FIG. 8 schematically shows an elongated, flat metal element 11 which moves according to an arrow 12 along its longitudinal axis 13.
- the metal element 11 is provided with sections according to FIG. 1 or FIG. 2 or with other suitable sectional patterns, which are not shown in FIG. 8 and in the other figures for reasons of clarity. In the upper part of Fig. 8, the metal element 11 has its original width, as it is present before the expansion.
- the device 13 shown in FIG. 8 for expanding the metal element 11 comprises two substantially identically formed caterpillar conveyors 14 arranged symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal axis 14 of the metal element 11.
- Each crawler conveyor 14 comprises a multiplicity of conveyor links 16, which are provided, for example, via a link in FIG 8 not shown chain are connected together.
- the caterpillar conveyors 15 are designed as endless crawler conveyors and are guided according to arrows 17 rotatable about guide rollers 18. Depending on the design, two or more deflection rollers can be provided.
- the guide rollers 18 may be driven or only rotate freely about their respective axes.
- the two caterpillar conveyors 15 are arranged so that an inlet region 20 and an adjoining widening region 21 are formed.
- clamping elements 19, which are opposite each other and face the longitudinal axis 14 of the metal element 11, have the same distance from one another, which corresponds approximately to the width of the metal element 11, which has not yet expanded.
- the distance between opposing clamping elements 19 increases continuously, as can be seen from FIG.
- the inlet region 20 is not absolutely necessary, so that, for example, the middle guide rollers 18 can be omitted in each case and the widening region 21 extends over the entire length of the caterpillar conveyor 15.
- the metal element 11 shown in FIG. 8 is arranged in the inlet region 20 between the two caterpillar conveyors 15 such that the two longitudinal sides 22, 23 of the metal element 11 engage in the clamping elements 19 and are held by them.
- the metal element 11 is widened by the apart clamping elements 19 according to arrows 24 in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis 14 until it has the desired width at the outlet end of the widening region 21.
- the metal element can be rolled or pressed flat, for example in a rolling process, whereby it reaches its final width and the folding points generated in the metal element during widening are equalized. In principle, this can also be done by another suitable pressing method (eg in a lifting press).
- Both the holding of the longitudinal sides 22, 23 of the metal element at the beginning of the inlet region 20 and the release of the widened metal element at the end of the widening region 21 is effected by control sections, not shown, which cause an automatic closing or opening of the clamping elements 19.
- control sections may be provided, spend the eventual closed clamping elements 19 in the release position, so that the metal element in the inlet region 20 safely penetrate into the clamping demesulator 19 and can be detected by them.
- the corresponding control sections can be formed by slide guides, which are provided in front of and at the beginning of the inlet region 20 or at the end of the widening region 21 and cooperate with the clamping elements 19 in a corresponding manner.
- the control could also be effected, for example, by limit switches or in another suitable manner.
- the inlet area 20 is omitted, then the input-side control sections can be provided correspondingly at the entrance of the widening area 21.
- the caterpillar conveyors 15 form carrier units for the clamping elements 19 and, due to their shape shown in FIG. 8, cause a wrenching movement of the clamping elements 19 in the widening region 21, which in turn leads to a widening of the metal element 11.
- Any existing conveyor belts or conveyor belts, with which the individual conveyor members are connected to one another preferably run in the area above and / or below the clamping elements 19 (perpendicular to the surface of the metal element 11). In this way it is avoided that in the curved sections of the caterpillar conveyor 15, the metal element 11 is stretched in the longitudinal direction.
- FIG. 9 a special embodiment of the clamping elements 19 is shown in more detail.
- a clamping element 19 according to FIG. 9 is shown again in detail in FIG.
- the clamping member 19 comprises a base member 25 which is fixed to the outside of the conveying member 16, as can be seen from Fig. 9.
- the base element 25 has a U-shaped structure, wherein the inside of the leg shown in FIGS. 9 and 10 below forms a contact area 26 for the metal element 11.
- the clamping element 19 comprises an eccentric 27 which is rotatably mounted on the leg of the U-shaped base member 25 shown above in FIGS. 9 and 10 about an axis 28.
- the eccentric forms a clamping region 29 for the metal element 11, which is clamped between the abutment region 26 and the clamping region 29, as can be clearly seen in particular from FIG. 10 by two arrows 30, 31.
- the eccentric 27 is rotatably mounted so eccentrically around the axis 28 that upon rotation of the eccentric of FIG. 10 against the Clockwise the clamping effect lifted, on the other hand amplified in a clockwise rotation.
- the clamping effect is thus increased due to the existing friction in the nip, so that the metal element 11 is clamped automatically solid at the tensile load occurring in the expansion region 21.
- the clamping element 19 can also comprise several, in particular juxtaposed eccentric 27, which can be mounted for example on the same axis.
- a control pin 33 is provided on the upper side of the eccentric 27, which is screwed, for example in a threaded bore 34 (see FIG. 10).
- the control pin 33 can, for example, cooperate with the above-described slotted guide so that the eccentric 27 located in its non-clamping release position is automatically transferred into the clamping position at the beginning of the lead-in area 20, after one of the longitudinal sides 22, 23 of the metal element 11 in the clamping area of Clamping elements 19 retracted.
- In an analogous manner can be transferred from its clamping position in the release position by a further slide guide at the output of the widening 21 by appropriate contact of the slide guide with the control pin 33, so that the clamped metal element 11 is released again.
- the expansion device according to the invention is very simple and robust and can in particular expand at high speed moving metal elements from a first width to an enlarged second width.
- Figs. 11 and 12 a modified embodiment of the invention is described. Already described elements are numbered with the same reference numerals that were already used in the description of the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 8 to IO.

- the flat metal element 11 is arranged with its longitudinal sides 22, 23 respectively between the upper and lower caterpillar conveyors 35, 36 arranged on both sides, which are arranged so close to each other that the longitudinal sides 22, 23 of the metal element 11 between the upper and lower caterpillar conveyors 35 , 36 are trapped.
- the outer sides of the conveying members 16 directly form clamping sections 38 for the metal element 11.
- the caterpillar conveyors 35, 36 arranged on both sides of the metal element 11 are arranged obliquely with respect to the longitudinal axis 14, so that in turn a widening region 21 is formed.
- the distance between respectively opposing clamping sections 38 increases continuously in the direction of movement of the metal element 11 represented by the arrow 12.
- widening and broadening of the metal element 11, as shown in FIG. 11 thus likewise takes place in the widening region 21.
- the embodiment according to FIGS. 13 and 14 differs from the previously described embodiments in particular in that the carrier units are not formed by caterpillar conveyors, but by two disks 39, 40 arranged symmetrically inclined to each other.
- the discs 39, 40 are rotatable about correspondingly mutually inclined axes of rotation 41, 42 and have in the representation shown in Fig. 13 at the top of a minimum and at the bottom of a maximum distance from each other.

- the metal element 11 is thereby pressed against the abutment regions 45, 46 via clamping elements 49, 50 provided on the edge regions of the rotating disks 39, 40, and thereby clamped between the clamping elements 49, 50 and the abutment regions 45, 46.
- the clamping elements 49, 50 can be automatically adjusted via slide guides from their release position to the clamping position and back.
- Corresponding slide guides can be provided between the metal element 11 and the rotating disks 39, 40, for example, in the region of the starting or end contact points located at the top and bottom in FIGS. 13 and 14.
- FIGS. 15 and 16 show in a detail view schematically a special embodiment of the clamping elements 49, 50.

- a displaceably and pivotably mounted clamping lever 52 is provided, which is in Fig. 15 in the clamping position and in Fig. 16 in the release position.
- the clamping lever 52 is pressed at its end facing away from the disc 39 in accordance with an arrow 54 in Fig. 15 upwards so that its opposite end is pivoted downwardly according to an arrow 53, whereby the described clamping effect is achieved.
- the Actuation of the clamping lever 52 at its end facing away from the disc 39 can be done for example via a gas spring 55.
- the clamping lever 52 is further slidably mounted according to two arrows 56, 57, wherein the displacement can be effected for example by a slotted guide, which engages in a groove 58 provided on the upper side of the clamping lever 53.
- the gas pressure spring 55 can also be displaced downwards by a corresponding slotted guide, so that the clamping lever 52 is freely displaceable.
- FIGS. 17 and 18 A specific embodiment of the clamping element 49 is shown again in detail in FIGS. 17 and 18. From these figures it can be seen that the clamping lever 52 is tiltable, for example via an intermediate lever 58 which is pivotable about an axis 59. Upon pivoting of the intermediate lever 58 by the gas pressure spring 55 about the axis 59 upwards, the clamping lever 52 is also pivoted upwards via a bolt 60 provided on the intermediate lever 58.
- the intermediate lever 58 is pivoted downwardly against the gas pressure spring 55 via a link guide engaging at its free end 61, the clamping lever 52 is released for a horizontal displacement, which can be controlled via a link guide engaging in the groove 58.
- Fig. 19 shows a modification of the device according to Figs. 13 and 14, in which the metal element 11 according to arrows 63, 64 on one side of the slanted discs 39, 40 on and on the opposite side in the substantially same direction of movement runs out again.
- the discs 39, 40 are tilted against each other in this case, that on the inlet side shown on the left in Fig. 19, the distance between the discs 39, 40 is minimal and on the outlet side shown on the right maximum to achieve the desired expansion.

- the longitudinal sides 67, 68 of the metal element 65 forming the edge regions can be clamped and the metal element 65 can be pulled apart such that the elongate metal element 65 'shown in FIG. 21 is produced.
- the clamping elements With a correspondingly narrow arrangement of the clamping elements, it is thus possible to produce expanded metal with widened, for example diamond-shaped, stitches 69, but the longitudinal sides 67, 68 have straight outer edges, i. to form a closed structure.
- the metal element 65 ' shown in FIG. 21 can be used, for example, for producing profiles as described for FIGS. 6 and 7 or for other purposes as a substitute for normal expanded metal.
- FIG. 22 shows a caterpillar conveyor 70, which differs from the crawler conveyor 14 according to FIG. 8 only in that no inlet area 20 is provided, but the metal element 11 enters directly into the expansion region 21.
- FIG. 23 shows a highly schematic representation of three control sections 71, 72, 73 designed as slide guides, by means of which the clamping elements 19 according to the invention can be automatically switched between the release position and the clamping position.
- the control pins 33 are indicated in Fig. 23 instead of the clamping elements 19, which cooperate with the control sections 71, 72, 73.
- the control pins 33 are tilted radially outwardly (in FIG. 23 to the left) by the control section 71, whereby the clamping elements 19 are automatically brought into their release position, so that the metal element 11 entering the expansion area 21 intervenes the abutment regions 26 and the clamping regions 27 of the clamping elements 19 can enter.
- the control pins 33 run against the radially inner control surface of the second control section 72, whereby they are tilted radially inwardly.

- the clamping elements 19 After the clamping elements 19 have been brought into their clamping position defined by the second control section 72, the metal element 11 is pulled apart during the passage of the expansion area 21.
- the control pins 33 run against the radially outer control surface of the third control section 73, by which they are again tilted radially outwards, so that the Clamping elements 19 are transferred to their release position and the metal element 11 is released automatically by the clamping elements 19.
- the clamping elements 19 may be either in their release position or in the clamping position.
- Fig. 24 shows a further embodiment of a clamping member 19 'according to the invention, which differs from the clamping member 19 of FIG. 10 substantially only in that the eccentric 27' on its outer surface only partially has a circular shape through which the
- Clamping region 29 is formed. Furthermore, in contrast to the clamping element 19, the U-shaped base element 25 is fastened in each case via an intermediate element 75 to the conveyor element 16 (see FIG. 9), which may in particular be formed integrally with the base element 25.
