Description
La présente invention se rapporte au domaine de l'impression par flexographie et concerne plus particulièrement le montage amélioré d'un cliché sur un cylindre d'impression porte-cliché.The present invention relates to the field of flexographic printing and more particularly relates to the improved mounting of a plate on a platen printing cylinder.
La flexographie est un procédé d'impression bien connu et est généralement utilisée dans l'impression à cadence élevée de divers supports notamment en carton, en papier, en matière plastique, ...Flexography is a well-known printing process and is generally used in the high-speed printing of various media including cardboard, paper, plastic, ...
La flexographie trouve toutefois une application particulièrement avantageuse pour l'impression de carton ondulé.Flexography, however, finds a particularly advantageous application for printing corrugated cardboard.
Un dispositif d'impression par flexographie met en oeuvre un cliché qui est destiné à venir s'enrouler sur un cylindre porte-cliché d'un groupe d'impression flexographique.A flexographic printing device uses a plate which is intended to be wound on a platen roller of a flexographic printing unit.
Un tel groupe d'impression comporte en outre, notamment, une unité d'encrage qui coopère avec le cylindre porte-cliché pour déposer de l'encre sur la forme imprimante, laquelle est ensuite transférée sur un support d'impression finale.Such printing unit further comprises, in particular, an inking unit which cooperates with the forme cylinder to deposit ink on the printer form, which is then transferred to a final print medium.
Dans l'état de la technique, le cliché est associé à une plaque de matériau compressible, par exemple une plaque de mousse, qui est destinée à assurer une isolation contre les vibrations et à améliorer la qualité d'impression à cadence d'impression élevée. L'ensemble formé par le cliché associé à la plaque de matériau compressible constitue une forme imprimante.In the state of the art, the plate is associated with a plate of compressible material, for example a foam plate, which is intended to provide vibration isolation and to improve the print quality at a high printing rate. . The assembly formed by the plate associated with the compressible material plate constitutes a printer form.
On pourra à cet égard se référer aux documents
La tendance actuelle est la réduction relativement importante de l'épaisseur du cliché. La couche de mousse est ainsi utilisée pour compenser cette réduction d'épaisseur.The current trend is the relatively large reduction in the thickness of the shot. The foam layer is thus used to compensate for this reduction in thickness.
Il a été constaté que la mousse, qui est collée sur chaque cliché, est relativement onéreuse. Dans la mesure où elle est collée sur le cliché, les imprimeurs doivent utiliser une couche de mousse pour chaque commande d'impression émanant de leurs clients.It has been found that the foam, which is stuck on each shot, is relatively expensive. Insofar as it is stuck on the plate, printers must use a layer of foam for each print order from their customers.
Il s'ensuit une consommation de mousse relativement importante.It follows a relatively large consumption of foam.
Le but de l'invention est donc de pallier cet inconvénient et de réduire de manière drastique la consommation en mousse, tout en conservant un montage aisé du cliché et de la plaque de matériau compressible sur le cylindre d'impression.The object of the invention is therefore to overcome this drawback and drastically reduce the foam consumption, while maintaining easy mounting of the plate and the compressible material plate on the printing cylinder.
L'invention a donc pour objet un dispositif de montage d'un cliché sur un cylindre d'impression par flexographie, comprenant une plaque de matériau compressible dotée de moyens de montage de la plaque sur le cylindre.The invention therefore relates to a device for mounting a plate on a flexographic printing cylinder, comprising a plate of compressible material provided with means for mounting the plate on the cylinder.
La plaque de matériau compressible constitue un élément distinct et séparable du cliché, le cliché et la plaque de matériau compressible comprenant des moyens d'assemblage amovibles.The compressible material plate constitutes a separate and separable element of the plate, the plate and the plate of compressible material comprising removable assembly means.
Il est ainsi possible d'assurer un assemblage du cliché et de la plaque de matériau compressible pour ensuite enrouler l'ensemble sur le cylindre porte-cliché. La plaque de matériau compressible peut ainsi être utilisée pour mettre en oeuvre des impressions au moyen d'autres clichés. L'étape de montage du cliché et de la plaque de matériau compressible reste en outre aisée à mettre en oeuvre.It is thus possible to ensure an assembly of the plate and the compressible material plate and then wind the assembly on the forme cylinder. The plate of compressible material can thus be used to implement prints by means of other pictures. The mounting step of the plate and the plate of compressible material is furthermore easy to implement.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, ladite plaque comporte un bord d'extrémité recourbé d'accrochage du cliché sur le cylindre d'impression et dans lequel s'engage un bord d'extrémité correspondant de la plaque de matériau compressible.According to another characteristic of the invention, said plate comprises a curved end edge hooking the plate on the printing cylinder and in which engages a corresponding end edge of the compressible material plate.
Dans ce cas, le bord d'extrémité recourbé de la plaque de support peut avoir une forme de profilé en U.In this case, the curved end edge of the support plate may have a U- shaped profile.
Dans un mode de réalisation, le bord d'extrémité de la plaque de support est constitué par une baguette fixée sur la plaque de support.In one embodiment, the end edge of the support plate is constituted by a rod attached to the support plate.
Avantageusement, le bord d'extrémité de la plaque de matériau compressible a une forme de profilé en U complémentaire de celle du bord d'extrémité de la plaque de support.Advantageously, the end edge of the compressible material plate has a U- shaped profile complementary to that of the end edge of the support plate.
Le bord d'extrémité de la plaque de matériau compressible peut également être constitué par une baguette fixée sur la plaque de matériau compressible.The end edge of the compressible material plate may also be constituted by a rod fixed on the compressible material plate.
On notera que la plaque de support est avantageusement réalisée en polyester.It will be noted that the support plate is advantageously made of polyester.
Dans un mode de mise en oeuvre, le cliché a une épaisseur de 2,84 mm. Il peut avoir d'autres épaisseurs comprises entre 1,7 et 4,3 mm.In one embodiment, the plate has a thickness of 2.84 mm. It may have other thicknesses between 1.7 and 4.3 mm.
Selon encore une autre caractéristique de l'invention, ladite plaque de support comporte des moyens complémentaires de montage de la plaque sur le cylindre d'impression prévus à l'opposé du bord d'extrémité recourbé.According to yet another characteristic of the invention, said support plate comprises complementary means for mounting the plate on the printing cylinder provided opposite the curved end edge.
Par exemple, ces moyens complémentaires de montage comportent un ensemble d'oeillets pratiqués dans la plaque de matériau compressible et destinés à coopérer avec des pions prévus sur le cylindre par l'intermédiaire de tendeurs.For example, these complementary mounting means comprise a set of eyelets made in the compressible material plate and intended to cooperate with pins provided on the cylinder by means of tensioners.
En variante, lesdits moyens complémentaires de montage comportent une baguette fixée sur la plaque de matériau compressible.In a variant, said complementary mounting means comprise a rod fixed to the plate of compressible material.
D'autres buts, caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront à la lecture de la description suivante, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple non limitatif et faite en référence aux dessins annexés sur lesquels :

figure 3 illustrates another embodiment of a device for mounting a plate on a printing cylinder according to the invention.
Sur la
Comme on le voit sur cette
Comme cela est classique, le cliché 4 est réalisée en photopolymère gravé. Il est destiné à être encré pour transférer l'encre sur un support d'impression finale, en l'espèce, dans le mode de mise en oeuvre envisagé, du carton ondulé.As is conventional, the
Les dimensions de la plaque de support 3 sont bien entendu choisies en fonction de celles du cliché 4. Elle a par exemple une forme générale carrée ou rectangulaire appropriée aux dimensions du cylindre porte-cliché C.The dimensions of the
La plaque de matériau compressible 2 comporte, quant à elle, une couche de mousse 5 collée sur une plaque 6 de support, par exemple également réalisée en polyester. La couche de mousse est collée sur la plaque 6, du côté tourné vers le cliché 1.The plate of
Comme indiqué précédemment, la couche de mousse 5 est destinée à absorber les vibrations, en particulier à grande vitesse d'impression et à permettre d'obtenir une bonne qualité d'impression. Elle est également avantageuse lorsqu'il s'agit de procéder à une impression sur des substrats irréguliers. Elle sert également à compenser la réduction d'épaisseur du cliché, ici égale à 2,84 mm. Le cliché peut également avoir d'autres épaisseurs comprises entre 1,7 et 4,3 mm.As indicated above, the
La plaque de support 6 de la mousse 5 présente une forme similaire à celle de la plaque de support 3 du cliché. Elle comporte, en particulier, une dimension transversale identique de manière à pouvoir s'étendre selon toute la largeur du cliché 1. Toutefois, comme cela sera décrit en détail par la suite, elle est destinée à s'enrouler autour du cylindre porte-cliché, en étant intercalée entre le cylindre C et la forme imprimante 1. Elle présente dès lors une longueur suffisamment inférieure à celle de la plaque de support 3 de sorte que, après enroulement de la forme imprimante 1 et de la plaque 2 de matériau compressible, les deux plaques coïncident.The
On voit également sur la
On voit en effet que l'une des extrémités de la plaque de support 3, et en particulier l'un des bords 3a latéral, est recourbée. Elle comporte à cet effet une baguette rapportée 7 en forme de profilé en U qui s'étend sur la largeur de la plaque de support 3. Cette extrémité 3a forme ainsi une gorge 8 dans laquelle vient s'insérer une extrémité correspondante de la plaque 2 de matériau compressible. A cet effet, la baguette profilée 7, qui est par exemple collée, cousue ou rivetée sur la plaque de support 3, est orientée de sorte que la gorge s'étende d'un côté de la plaque 3 opposé à la forme imprimante 4.It can be seen that one of the ends of the
La plaque 2 de matériau compressible adopte une forme similaire. Elle comporte en effet une extrémité 2a qui est destinée à s'engager dans la gorge 8, également recourbée. Cette extrémité 2a est en effet dotée d'une baguette 9 en forme de profilé en U dont les dimensions correspondent à celles de la gorge 8 afin de pouvoir s'y insérer aisément tout en limitant les jeux. La baguette 9 est également, par exemple, collée, cousue ou rivetée sur la plaque 6 supportant la mousse 5 et s'étend du côté opposé à la mousse 5.The
Enfin, en ce qui concerne le cylindre d'impression, celui-ci comporte une gorge 10 transversale, qui s'étend selon toute la largeur du cylindre. Cette gorge 10 comporte une nervure latérale 11 par exemple ininterrompue, qui s'étend selon toute la largeur de la gorge et, de l'autre côté, une même nervure latérale 12.Finally, with regard to the impression cylinder, it has a transverse groove, which extends along the entire width of the cylinder. This
Pour utiliser le dispositif d'impression qui vient d'être décrit, il convient simplement d'assembler la plaque de matériau compressible 2 et la forme imprimante 1 en insérant la baguette 9 dans le logement 8 délimité par la baguette 7 du cliché 1. Il convient alors simplement d'enrouler l'ensemble autour du cylindre porte-cliché en accrochant la gorge délimitée par la baguette 9 de la plaque 2 de matériau compressible sur la première nervure 11, comme illustré sur la
Cette baguette 13 est également, par exemple collée, cousue ou rivetée sur la plaque 6 supportant la mousse 5 et s'étend du côté opposé à la mousse 5. On notera toutefois que cette baguette est ici fixée sur la plaque par l'intermédiaire d'une zone 15 élastiquement déformable afin de permettre le démontage de la forme imprimante.This
Comme on le conçoit, l'invention qui vient d'être décrite, qui utilise une plaque de matériau compressible amovible, peut venir se monter et être utilisée pour procéder à différentes impressions flexographiques au moyen de plusieurs formes imprimantes. La consommation en mousse, qui est un matériau relativement onéreux, est dès lors uniquement liée à son usure et est dès lors indépendante de l'utilisation des formes imprimantes.As conceived, the invention which has just been described, which uses a plate of removable compressible material, can be assembled and used to carry out different flexographic prints by means of several printing forms. Consumption of foam, which is a relatively expensive material, is therefore solely related to its wear and is therefore independent of the use of printing forms.
