Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for transverse stretching of film webs.
- a plurality of clamping clips is assembled to form endlessly circulating clip chains, which are arranged on both sides of a film web in the longitudinal direction.
- the film web is transported at elevated temperature through the transverse stretching system and thereby stretched.
- Such a transverse stretching system is described, for example, in DE 3703097.
- the guide rails on which the tensioning clamps run generally have a rectangular, vertically oriented cross section.
- the entire guide system for the clip chains is composed on each side of the film web of a plurality of straight, oblique and curved portions of such guide rails in the running direction.
- the plastic film is detected by a number of tensioning clamps on both sides of the film web at the edge and transported in the longitudinal direction through the stretching unit.
- the mutually arranged guide rails for the clip chains are designed so that in certain areas of the transverse stretching the distance between the clip chains is larger, so that the stretched in the clamping clips film is stretched transversely to the direction.
- the tensioning clamps release the film web. There, an area is provided in which the endless clip chain is driven, deflected and returned to the starting point via another guide system.
- the tensioning clamp generally consists of a base body, a mechanism for clamping the film web, elements for connecting the individual clamping clips to a chain and rollers for vertical and horizontal guidance of the tensioning clamp on the guide rail.
- rollers for horizontal guidance not only lead the clamping unit on the guide rail, but also absorb the tensile forces of the film web.
- These rollers are usually arranged opposite each other in the base body so that they are supported on the two-sided vertical raceways of the guide rail. This ensures that the tensioning clamp with or without film tension even at high
- EP 0 471 052 B1 proposes to press a roller, which can be adjusted transversely to the running direction, for horizontal guidance of the clamping unit by means of a complex lever system against the guide rail, so that the clearance existing in the prior art is always reduced to zero.
- This lever arrangement is mechanically complex and also causes always all opposing rollers of the clamping assembly under bias in contact with the rail and thus friction losses in the bearings of the rollers and in contact between rollers and guide rail arise.
- the object of the invention is to provide a device with clamps on a transverse stretching, in which even at high operating speeds an acceptable level of vibration, noise, wear and friction losses is achieved. According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features specified in claim 1. Further advantageous embodiments of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims and the description.
- the basic feature of the invention is the use of a device for generating magnetic forces, which is arranged on the device so that the tensioning clamp is permanently attracted to the guide rail in a defined direction, regardless of whether film tension is present or not.
- An expedient direction is that in which the foil pull also becomes effective during the transverse stretching process, so that when it is exposed in the edge regions of the system, the force relationships on the tensioning clamp remain controlled and thus the running of the tensioning clamp on the guide rail is stabilized.
- a magnetic position is provided on the tensioning roller, in which there is always a small distance, for example 1 mm, between the magnet and the guide rail when the tensioning roller runs along the guide rail. This distance is the air gap, in which the magnetic field builds up between the guide rail and the magnet, the force of which pulls the tensioning clamp with the associated rollers to the guide rail.
- the guide rail must consist of a magnetically suitable material familiar to the person skilled in the art, for example steel. With high-performance magnets available today, forces of sufficient magnitude can be made available. An orientation for the required magnitude of the magnetic forces gives the weight of a typical clamping unit, which may be for example 6 kg.
- the magnet must overcome at least the weight, under the action of which the clamping plate tends to tilt on the guide rail in the absence of film tension.
- the rollers which are arranged on the same side of the guide rail, such as the magnet, constantly in contact with the guide rail.
- the position of the components is chosen so that there is no contact between the magnet and the guide rail. Due to the magnetic force, the clamping unit is stabilized in the barrel, the rollers are not disengaged. Thus, no tarnishing and running of the rollers takes place, with the result that the wear of rollers and guide rails is reduced.
- the rollers, which are arranged on the other side of the guide rail not or rarely come into engagement with the guide rail.
- the magnet facing away from the side of the guide rail are completely dispensed with.
- tenter clips With known tenter clips, it is common to have several adjacent casters, e.g. a pair of rollers, to provide for the support of the tensioning clamp against the guide rail.
- a pair of rollers can be used, which are also arranged one above the other.
- a single magnet With sufficient force, a single magnet can be placed between two rollers. If the force of a magnet is not sufficient, several magnets in the direction before, behind and / or between the rollers can be arranged.
- the air gap in which the magnetic field builds up between the magnet and the guide rail decisively determines the magnetic forces that occur and thus the force with which the tensioning clamp is drawn to the guide rail.
- the magnetic forces are greater, the smaller the air gap.
- other adjustment means known to the person skilled in the art for the position of such a component are also applicable. In the operation of such a system, abrasion inevitably occurs on the mechanical components.
- This device may for example consist of one or more brushes, which are arranged at a suitable point of the guide system so that the magnets with a running clip chain past it, so that any adhering to the magnet abrasion particles are stripped off.
- the magnets are arranged so that they meet in a region of the guide rail, which is not rolled over by the rollers on the arranged on the guide rail brushes.
- the device can also be supplemented by suction devices integrated into the guide rail, which sucks the adhering dirt from the brushes and / or the magnet.
- the clip chain with the tensioning clips is here additionally equipped with a power supply system which consists of stationary machine parts - e.g. the guide rail is supplied with power via springy sliding contacts similar to railway systems.
- a power supply system which consists of stationary machine parts - e.g. the guide rail is supplied with power via springy sliding contacts similar to railway systems.
- the cleaning brushes to remove the abrasion of the Magnet series to be attached to the clamps.
- the suction device is in turn firmly attached to a suitable location in the region of the guide rail.
- the magnetic series could be interrupted for a short distance; so that the brushes do not run past a magnet over a short distance but past a suction nozzle.
