Besonders bevorzugt betrifft die Erfindung jedoch eine kontinuierlich arbeitende Presse zum kontinuierlichen Verpressen von Pressgutmatten, wobei eine solche kontinuierliche Presse eine beheizbare obere Pressenplatte im Pressenoberteil und eine beheizbare untere Pressenplatte im Pressenunterteil und im Pressenoberteil sowie im Pressenunterteil endlos umlaufende Pressbänder aufweist, wobei die Pressbänder unter Zwischenschaltung von Wälzkörperaggregaten (z.

B. die obere Pressenplatte oder die untere Pressenplatte zur Einstellung eines zwischen den Pressenplatten gebildeten Pressspaltes mit den Presszylindern beaufschlagt.The press can basically be a multi-stage press, e.g. B. act a day press or multi-daylight press that works in cycle mode. However, the invention particularly preferably relates to a continuously operating press for the continuous pressing of mats to be pressed, with such a continuous press having a heatable upper press platen in the press upper part and a heatable lower press platen in the press lower part and in the press upper part and in the press lower part, endlessly circulating press belts, the press belts being interposed is supported on the press plates by rolling element assemblies (e.g. roll bars).

Besonders bevorzugt betrifft die Erfindung eine Presse zum Verpressen von mattenförmigem Pressgut, z. B. von Pressgutmatten unter Bildung von plattenförmigen Werkstoffen (Pressgutplatten). Dabei kann es sich insbesondere um eine Presse zum Herstellen von Holzwerkstoffplatten handeln, so dass mattenförmiges Streugut (Fasern/Späne) in der Presse unter Bildung einer Holzwerkstoffplatte verpresst wird. Holzwerkstoffplatte meint insbesondere Spanplatte oder Faserplatte, z. B. MDF-Platte. Die Erfindung betrifft aber auch Pressen für die Verarbeitung anderer Materialien, z. B. zum Herstellen von Laminatplatten, wobei an einer solchen Laminatpresse (die in der Regel als Kurztaktpresse ausgebildet ist), stapelförmiges Pressgut zu Laminatplatten verpresst wird. Ferner kann es sich um eine Presse zur Herstellung von Faserverbundwerkstoffen handeln, z.

This can in particular be a press for the production of wood-based panels, so that mat-shaped grit (fibers/chips) is pressed in the press to form a wood-based panel. wood-based panel means in particular chipboard or fibreboard, e.g. B. MDF board. However, the invention also relates to presses for processing other materials, e.g. B. for the production of laminate boards, with such a laminate press (which is usually designed as a short-cycle press), stacked material to be pressed is pressed into laminate boards. It can also be a press for the production of fiber composite materials, e.g. B. an SMC press.
Stets ist eine Presse gemeint, die mit einer Vielzahl von Presszylindern ausgerüstet ist, die in einer Vielzahl von Reihen angeordnet sind, wobei jede Reihe mehrere Presszylinder aufweist. Die Presszylinder sind als Hydraulikzylinder ausgerüstet und folglich mit einem Hydrauliksystem verbunden, das heißt die Hydraulikzylinder werden über Steuerventile mit dem Hydraulikmedium beaufschlagt, wobei das Hydrauliksystem darüber hinaus üblicherweise zumindest einen Speicher für das Hydraulikmedium und ein oder mehrere Pumpen aufweist.A press is always meant which is equipped with a plurality of press cylinders arranged in a plurality of rows, each row having a plurality of press cylinders. The press cylinders are equipped as hydraulic cylinders and are consequently connected to a hydraulic system, i.e. the hydraulic cylinders are acted upon by the hydraulic medium via control valves, with the hydraulic system also usually having at least one reservoir for the hydraulic medium and one or more pumps.
Eine solche Presse zur Herstellung von Pressgutplatten in der Ausführungsform als kontinuierliche Presse ist z. B. aus der

Die
In der Praxis ist es bislang z. B. bei kontinuierlich arbeitenden Pressen, die z. B. in der Holzwerkstoffindustrie eingesetzt werden, üblich, die Vielzahl von Ventilen, die (strömungstechnisch) z. B. über Leitungen mit den zahlreichen Presszylindern verbunden sind, zu zentralisieren und in einem gemeinsamen Ventilblock bzw. Hydraulikverteilerblock zusammenzufassen. Die einzelnen Ventile sind dabei fest vorgegeben über Bohrungen logisch miteinander verkettet, so dass in der Praxis über solche Hydraulikverteilerblöcke gleichsam hardwaremäßig eine feste Verschaltung vorgegeben ist. Der Einsatz solcher Hydraulikverteilerblöcke hat sich in der Praxis grundsätzlich bewährt, denn das System ist wartungs- und montagefreundlich und arbeitet sehr zuverlässig. Insgesamt haben sich Pressen und insbesondere kontinuierliche Pressen der eingangs beschriebenen Art seit Jahrzehnten hervorragend bewährt, sie sind jedoch weiterentwicklungsfähig. - Hier setzt die Erfindung ein.In practice it has been z. B. in continuously operating presses z. B. be used in the wood-based materials industry, usual, the variety of valves that (flow) z. B. are connected via lines with the numerous press cylinders to centralize and summarize in a common valve block or hydraulic distributor block. The individual valves are logically linked to one another in a fixed manner via bores, so that in practice a fixed interconnection is predetermined, so to speak, in terms of hardware, via such hydraulic distributor blocks. The use of such hydraulic distributor blocks has basically proven itself in practice, because the system is easy to maintain and install and works very reliably. Overall, presses and in particular continuous presses have of the type described at the beginning have proven themselves excellently for decades, but they can be further developed. - This is where the invention comes in.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Presse der eingangs beschriebenen Art zu schaffen, die bei einfachem Aufbau einen besonders variablen Betrieb ermöglicht.The invention is based on the object of creating a press of the type described above which, with a simple structure, enables particularly variable operation.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe lehrt die Erfindung bei einer gattungsgemäßen Presse der eingangs beschrieben Art, dass die Presszylinder, die bevorzugt matrixartig in einer Vielzahl von Reihen angeordnet sind, mit jeweils zumindest einen eigenen (räumlich direkt am Zylinder angeordneten) Steuerventil ausgerüstet sind, wobei diese Steuerventile besonders bevorzugt als Proportionalventile ausgebildet sind.To solve this problem, the invention teaches, in a generic press of the type described above, that the press cylinders, which are preferably arranged in a matrix in a large number of rows, are each equipped with at least one control valve of their own (physically arranged directly on the cylinder), with these control valves are particularly preferably designed as proportional valves.
Die Erfindung löst sich folglich von dem bislang in der Praxis realisierten Prinzip der Zentralisierung und ersetzt die grundsätzlich bekannten zentralen Hydraulikverteilerblöcke, die mit einer Vielzahl von Steuerventilen ausgerüstet sind, durch eine Vielzahl von dezentral angeordneten Einzelventilen, die eine variable Einzelzylindersteuerung ermöglichen. Jedem Presszylinder ist folglich zumindest ein eigenes Steuerventil zugeordnet und zwar auch räumlich, das heißt, der Presszylinder selbst ist mit dem ihm zugeordneten Steuerventil unmittelbar ausgerüstet. Dieses lässt sich z. B. dadurch realisieren, dass die Steuerventile jeweils unmittelbar an dem Presszylinder befestigt sind, z. B. verschraubt sind. Die Befestigung kann unmittelbar an dem Zylindergehäuse des Presszylinders erfolgen, so dass das Steuerventil an das Zylindergehäuse angeflanscht ist.The invention therefore breaks away from the principle of centralization that has been implemented in practice up to now and replaces the fundamentally known central hydraulic distributor blocks, which are equipped with a large number of control valves, with a large number of decentrally arranged individual valves, which enable variable individual cylinder control. Consequently, each press cylinder is assigned at least its own control valve, also spatially, that is, the press cylinder itself is directly equipped with the control valve assigned to it. This can e.g. B. realized in that the control valves are each attached directly to the press cylinder, z. B. are screwed. It can be attached directly to the cylinder housing of the press cylinder, so that the control valve is flanged to the cylinder housing.
Die Erfindung umfasst grundsätzlich Ausführungsformen bei denen die Presszylinder als einfach wirkende Plungerzylinder ausgebildet sind, so dass dann in der Regel jedem Presszylinder ein einzelnes Steuerventil zugeordnet ist. Gleiches gilt für die dann gegebenenfalls vorgesehenen Rückzugszylinder, wobei die Plungerzylinder einerseits und die Rückzugszylinder andererseits ebenfalls matrixartig angeordnet und an eine der Pressenplatten angeschlossen sein können.The invention basically includes embodiments in which the press cylinders are designed as single-acting plunger cylinders, so that then usually each press cylinder is assigned a single control valve. The same applies to the retraction cylinders that may then be provided, in which case the plunger cylinders on the one hand and the retraction cylinders on the other hand can also be arranged in a matrix and connected to one of the press plates.
Besonders bevorzugt betrifft die Erfindung jedoch Ausführungsformen, bei denen die Presszylinder als doppeltwirkende Differenzialzylinder ausgebildet sind, mit denen sowohl Druckkräfte als auch Zugkräfte auf die jeweilige Pressenplatte übertragen werden können. Bei solchen doppelwirkenden Differenzialzylindern kann es zweckmäßig sein, an jedem Presszylinder jeweils zwei Steuerventile vorzusehen, eines für den Arbeitshochdruck und eines für den Gegenhochdruck. Grundsätzlich lässt sich ein Differentialzylinder aber auch mit lediglich einem Steuerventil betreiben.However, the invention particularly preferably relates to embodiments in which the press cylinders are designed as double-acting differential cylinders with which both compressive forces and tensile forces can be transmitted to the respective press plate. With such double-acting differential cylinders, it can be expedient to provide two control valves on each press cylinder, one for the working high pressure and one for the counter-high pressure. In principle, however, a differential cylinder can also be operated with just one control valve.
Die Erfindung zeichnet sich insgesamt durch eine äußerst variable Einzelzylinderansteuerung aus, so dass die beim Stand der Technik notwendige hardwaremäßige Verschaltung einzelner Druckzonen entfällt. Die Verschaltung bzw. Verschaltungslogik wird vollvariabel elektrisch über einen Rechner eingestellt, das heißt über eine gleichsam elektrische Matrix kann mit Hilfe eines Rechners voll variabel jeder einzelne Zylinder angesteuert und eingestellt werden. In bevorzugter Weiterbildung sind folglich die in der Presse verteilten Steuerventile zur Einstellung variabler Druckverteilungen und Druckprofile mit einem Rechner, der gleichsam eine elektrische Matrix bildet, einzeln oder auch in beliebigen Gruppen ansteuerbar. Der Rechner muss dann als elektrische Matrix nur elektrisch bzw. elektronisch mit sämtlichen Ventilen verbunden sein, und zwar entweder drahtgebunden oder auch drahtlos. Darüber hinaus ist es lediglich erforderlich, sämtliche dezentral an den jeweiligen Zylindern angeordneten Steuerventile über Hydraulikleitungen mit den übrigen Komponenten des Hydrauliksystems, insbesondere dem Speicher und den Pumpen zu verbinden.Overall, the invention is characterized by an extremely variable individual cylinder control, so that the hardware-based connection of individual pressure zones, which is necessary in the prior art, is no longer necessary. The interconnection or interconnection logic is electrically set in a fully variable manner using a computer, that is to say that each individual cylinder can be controlled and set in a fully variable manner with the aid of a computer using an electric matrix, as it were. In a preferred further development, the control valves distributed in the press for setting variable pressure distributions and pressure profiles can be controlled individually or in any groups with a computer, which forms an electrical matrix, so to speak. As an electrical matrix, the computer then only has to be electrically or electronically connected to all the valves, either by wire or also wirelessly. In addition, it is only necessary to connect all the control valves arranged decentrally on the respective cylinders via hydraulic lines to connect the other components of the hydraulic system, in particular the accumulator and the pumps.

Es ist lediglich angedeutet, dass die Steuerventile 9 unmittelbar an dem jeweiligen Presszylinder 7 befestigt sind, z. B. an dessen Zylindergehäuse angeflanscht bzw. angeschraubt sind.It is only indicated that the
Die Presse zeichnet sich folglich durch eine sehr variable Einzelzylinderansteuerung aus. Die Verschaltungslogik wird nicht mehr durch hardwaremäßig vorgegebene Steuerblöcke hergestellt, sondern ausschließlich elektrisch und folglich ausschließlich über einen Rechner, der eine vollkommen variable elektrische Matrix zur Einstellung einer beliebigen Verschaltungslogik bildet. Der Rechner selbst ist in den Figuren nicht dargestellt, er muss jedoch lediglich elektrisch bzw. kommunikationstechnisch mit den Ventilen 9 verbunden werden. Auf einen separaten Niederdrucksteuerzweig des Hydrauliksystems zur Steuerung der Ventile kann folglich verzichtet werden. Es ist lediglich erforderlich sämtliche Steuerventile 9 über entsprechende Hydraulik-Leitungen mit den übrigen Komponenten des Hydrauliksystems, insbesondere die Pumpen und den Speicher zu verbinden. Einzelheiten dazu sind nicht dargestellt.As a result, the press is characterized by a very variable individual cylinder control. The interconnection logic is no longer produced by hardware-based predetermined control blocks, but exclusively electrically and consequently exclusively via a computer that forms a completely variable electrical matrix for setting any interconnection logic. The computer itself is not shown in the figures, but it only has to be connected to the
In den Figuren sind im Übrigen lediglich Ausführungsformen einer kontinuierlich arbeitenden Presse dargestellt, die von der Erfindung besonders bevorzugt umfasst sind. Die Erfindung betrifft grundsätzlich aber auch Taktpressen, die ebenfalls über eine obere Pressenplatte und eine untere Pressenplatte und über eine Vielzahl von in Reihen angeordneten Presszylindern aufweisen. Dabei kann es sich insbesondere um Einetagenpressen oder Mehretagenpresen zur Herstellung von Holzwerkstoffplatten oder Laminatplatten und unter anderem auch Kurztaktpressen handeln, bei denen jeweils stapelförmiges Pressgut unter Bildung einer Laminatplatte verpresst wird. Darüber hinaus umfasst die Erfindung ebenfalls Ausführungsformen zur Herstellung von Faserverbundwerkstoffen, die z. B. im Fahrzeugbau und Flugzeugbau Einsatz finden.Incidentally, the figures merely show embodiments of a continuously operating press, which are particularly preferably covered by the invention. In principle, however, the invention also relates to cycle presses, which also have an upper press platen and a lower press platen and a large number of press cylinders arranged in rows. In particular, these can be single-daylight presses or multi-daylight presses for the production of wood-based panels or laminate panels and, among other things, also short-cycle presses in which stacked pressed material is pressed to form a laminate panel. In addition, the invention also includes embodiments for Production of fiber composite materials, the z. B. in vehicle construction and aircraft construction.
