Definitions

  • the present invention relates to machines and devices for converting web material. More in particular, the present invention relates to so-called winding devices, for the production of reels of wound web material, for example to form reels of non-woven, paper, tissue paper, cardboard, fabric or the like.
  • EP-A-0943569 describes a winding device for producing reels of web material about winding spindles, comprising: a fixed supporting structure; a winding unit; a rolling guide for the winding spindles; a winding spindle magazine, positioned at a greater height with respect to the rolling guide; a system for feeding winding spindles from the magazine to the winding unit; a pair of arms oscillating about an oscillation axis, constrained to the structure and arranged and controlled to lift the winding spindles from the height at which the rolling guide is located to the winding spindle magazine.
  • the reels are wound about winding spindles which, once forming of the reels has been completed, are extracted from the respective reels and re-used, taking them to the winding area.
  • a reel When a reel has been completed, it is transferred from a winding position to an unloading position, in which the spindle on which it was formed is extracted axially from the reel and held at the side of the winding device.
  • the reel is then moved away and the spindle is repositioned inside the winding device, where it is lifted to a higher level at which the magazine for the spindles intended for the formation of subsequent reels is located.
  • Lifting takes place through a pair of arms which are lowered below the height at which the spindle is located, before the spindle is re-inserted axially in the winding device. In this way, when the arms are lifted they engage the spindle at the ends and lift it, transferring it to the magazine.
  • the reel formed can be defective and must be discarded. This occurs, for example, when the web material being wound is torn, or presents a damaged area.
  • the operator operates the axial translation system of the spindle, to take it to the side of the winder and then performs lowering of the arms. Subsequently, the operator repositions the spindle in the winding device, above the oscillating arms, which with a movement oscillating upwards take the spindle to the height of the magazine.
  • the defective reel can be removed with its spindle inside, and the operator performs cutting and removal of the web material from the winding spindle in a point distant from the winding device. Subsequently the spindle must be returned to the magazine of the winder with an overhead traveling crane, an operation which is also complex and not free of risks.
  • the invention provides a winding device of the aforesaid type, which allows simpler operations to be performed to free the spindles of defective reels and return them to the magazine above the winding area.
  • each of the oscillating arms comprises a first portion and a second portion, mutually movable one with respect to the other, and preferably pivoted one to the other, and suitable to take a first reciprocal position, in which they are arranged so as to engage and lift a spindle, and a second reciprocal position, in which the arm can be lowered below a standby position of the spindles on the rolling guide moving beyond a spindle located in the standby position.
  • each arm i.e. the one farthest from the axis of rotation about the supporting structure, rotates with respect to the remaining portion allowing movement beyond the spindle, without it requiring to be axially removed from its position. Subsequent lifting of the pair of arms takes the spindle to the greater height at which the magazine is located. No maneuvers for axial movement of the spindle or operations by the overhead traveling crane are required. The winding spindle can thus be returned to the magazine much more easily, with a rapid operation free of risks for the operator.
  • the winding device - indicated as a whole with 1 - comprises a fixed supporting structure 3, a winding unit 5 and a pair of guides 7 for rolling of winding spindles A, about which reels B of web material N, such as a web of paper, of nonwoven or the like, are formed.
  • a magazine 9 is positioned above the rolling guides 7 of the winding spindles A for storing the winding spindles, which are picked up individually to be transferred to the winding unit 5.
  • the single winding spindles A are picked up from the magazine 9 and carried towards the winding unit 5 through an inserting system.
  • the insertion system comprises a pair of oscillating arms 11 operated by actuators 13, such as piston-cylinder actuators.
  • the single winding spindles A picked up by the pairs of arms 11 are engaged between a check member 15 and a winding roller 17, about which the web material N is fed to form the reels B of web material about the spindles.
  • a standby position 20 is defined at the end of the guides 7 opposite the winding unit 5, in which each single reel B is stopped by the ends A1 of the respective winding spindle A projecting from said reel resting against stops 21.
  • An extractor 25 ( Figure 2 ) is arranged at the side of the standby position, to extract each winding spindle A from the respective reel B when the latter is in standby position 20. Once the winding spindle has been extracted, the reel is lifted and made to rotate towards a pick-up shuttle or the like, by means of a lifting lifting table, not shown.
  • One or more tubular winding cores, on which the reel or reels are formed in the subsequent winding cycle, are inserted on the winding spindle extracted from the reel.
  • the winding spindle with the new tubular cores inserted and blocked thereon is again inserted in the winding device 1 with the ends A1 thereof resting on the guides 7 to be subsequently lifted, through members described below, to the magazine 9 above.
  • a pair of oscillating arms 31 are provided, pivoted at 33 to the fixed supporting structure 3.
  • the oscillating movement of the arms 31 is controlled by one or more actuators, such as piston-cylinder actuators 35, hinged at 37 to appendages 31A of the respective oscillating arms 31 and at 38 to the fixed structure 3.
  • each arm 31 comprises a first portion 41 hinged at 33 to the fixed structure 3, with which the appendage 31A is integral, and a second portion 43, forming the terminal part of the respective arm 31.
  • the two portions 41, 43 are mutually pivoted in 45.
  • the portions 41, 43 each has a rolling track for the spindles, indicated with 41A and 43A respectively.
  • the portions 41 and 43 are arranged in a reciprocal angular position so that the tracks 41A and 43A form a continuous supporting and rolling surface for the spindles A, which rest with shanks A2 ( Figure 4 ) on said tracks.
  • This reciprocal position of the two portions 41, 43 is defined by stops 41 B, 43B ( Figures 6-9 ). In some embodiments this reciprocal position is achieved simply as a result of the weight of the portion 43, but it would also be possible to provide, for example, elastic members that stress the portion 43 of each arm 31 in the stop position against the portion 41.
  • the supporting and rolling surface 41A, 43A is formed by a simple supporting portion, formed by the track 43A, on which the spindle A rests during lifting, and by a rolling portion, formed by the curved portion of the track 43A, by the rectilinear portion of the track 43A which is located between the curved portion and the axis of articulation 45, and by the rectilinear track 41A.
  • the spindle rolls on this surface during lifting towards the magazine 9.
  • the two portions 41, 43 of the arms 31 can oscillate with respect to each other about the pivot 45 as shown in Figure 3 , as a result of interference of the portion 43 of each arm 31 with the respective shank A2 of a winding spindle A that is located in the standby position 20, as shown in Figure 3 , for the purposes described in greater detail below.
  • the portion 43 of each arm 31 has on the lower surface a bevel and a coating 47, 49 in damping material ( Figures 3, 7 ).
  • Figures 1A-1D show a normal operating sequence.
  • a winding spindle A is lowered from the magazine 9 and brought into contact with the winding roller 17.
  • a portion of the reel B has formed about the winding spindle A.
  • the reel can be composed of a single roll, or of a plurality of rolls aligned axially and formed simultaneously by winding several strips of the same or of different width, obtained by cutting the web material N longitudinally.
  • the reel B has been completed and has been carried, by rolling the winding spindle A along the guides 7, to the standby position 20, defined by the stops 21 D.
  • the winding spindle A is extracted axially by the extractor unit 25 and positioned on the side of the winding unit 1 ( Figure 2 ).
  • the winding spindle A can be provided with a radial expansion mechanism to engage torsionally and axially with the tubular winding cores on which the web material is wound.
  • the spindle In the standby position 20 the spindle is deflated or contracted radially to allow release thereof with respect to the tubular core or cores, which remain inside the rolls or the reel B, while the winding spindle A is taken to the side of the winding device 1 and if necessary here provided with new winding cores, which are blocked on the spindle by expanding it.
  • the magazine 9 is provided with rolling tracks 9A for the shanks A1 of the winding spindles A, on which the spindles continue to roll after leaving the rolling tracks 41A formed on the oscillating lifting arms 31.
  • the procedure described below is followed.
  • the reel B is taken to the position 20.
  • a specific tool such as a cutter
  • the operator cuts the turns of wound web material, removing it from the spindle A while this remains in the standby position 20.
  • the arms 31 can lift it from the standby position 20 to the magazine 9 above. The web material cut and removed from the winding spindle A can be recycled if necessary.
  • the arms 31 are each made in two portions 41, 43 mutually pivoted in 45, they can be lowered until the portions 43 are below the winding spindle A, moving beyond the spindle.
  • the portions 43 knock with the coating 47, 49 against the shanks of the winding spindle A and oscillate about the pivots 45 while the portions 41 of the arms continue to be lowered, until the portions 43 move downwardly beyond the spindle A.
  • Figure 3 shows the step in which the arms 31 being lowered move beyond the spindle.
