Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for producing round brushes.
- Round brushes are made by first folding a wire and then pinching bristles between the twisting halves of the wire during a twisting process.
- Such devices operate at extremely high speeds, and the wire must first be buckled slightly near its center from a linear shape, after which a rotating gripper can grip it.
- the linear sections of the wire that have not yet been bent are pulled into the twisting area via deflection devices, because the rotating gripper is usually also moved linearly, transversely to the longitudinal extension of the bent wire, so that the wire has to be fed.
- the pamphlet DE 10 2011 015060 A1 describes a fine device for producing round brushes, which have bristles clamped between two wire sections of a folded wire, with motor-driven drive rollers that move the wire in its longitudinal direction, a bending part that can be moved transversely to the wire, opposing counter-holders that are spaced apart from each other and that are on the bending part are arranged on the opposite side of the wire, whereby the bending part can be fed between the anvils and thereby bends the wire between itself and the anvils into a V-shape or U-shape to form wire halves, a bristle feed device for feeding bristles at the bent wire, and a rotary gripper capable of gripping the bent wire and twisting it as bristles are fed to anchor the bristles in the wire.
- the object of the invention is to make it as easy as possible to adjust the various functions that must be fulfilled in a device for producing round brushes and to bring about an individual optimization of these various functions.
- the longitudinal extension or longitudinal direction of the wire is the direction of the wire when it is not yet bent but is only being fed into the device.
- the wire is linear.
- the device according to the invention has two opposing counter-holders which are spaced apart from one another and which serve to accommodate the bending part between them when the wire is to be bent for the first time or slightly bent in the middle.
- deflection devices that are spaced apart from one another, for example in the form of baffles, are also provided for the attachment of the wire.
- the wire halves are guided along these deflection devices after the wire has been bent or folded in the middle.
- the deflection devices thus form a transition from the non-bent wire sections of the wire halves to the wire sections leading transversely to the longitudinal direction to the rotatable gripper.
- the wire rests against these deflection devices when it has to change its direction, namely from the longitudinal direction to the direction running transversely, almost 90° to the gripper.
- the counter-holder and the deflection devices are different parts and can be brought into contact with the wire one after the other. This is not the case in the prior art because here the counterholder and deflection devices are always the same parts that are permanently in contact with the wire. Due to the fact that counterholder and deflection devices are different parts according to the invention, however, they can individually be optimally adapted to their functions.
- the counterholders are perfectly matched to the part to be bent between them, in order to perfectly shape and clamp the wire between the counterholders and the part to be bent.
- the deflection devices can also be optimized.
- the purpose of the deflection devices is, on the one hand, to deflect the wire and, on the other hand, to offer a certain resistance to the wire, so that the piece of wire between the gripper and the deflection device is kept under tension when it is twisted. Separate braking devices are therefore unnecessary in the device.
- the anvils and/or the deflection devices are movable so that they can be brought into and out of contact with the wire in order to form a bending surface for the wire along which the wire is moved and bent.
- the deflection devices as well as the counter-holders can be adjusted in the longitudinal direction of the non-bent wire and/or transversely to the longitudinal direction.
- the counter-holders are advanced in order to come into contact with the wire, or the deflection devices.
- the deflection devices are used when the counter-holders have moved away. then the wire that is kinked or bent in the middle is placed against the deflection devices or, conversely, the deflection devices are moved against the wire so that the rotatable gripper can then pull the wire further and this wire presses against the deflection devices.
- the wire can always remain in the same holder, which is defined, for example, by the drive rollers, while counter holders and deflection devices are delivered. That is, anvils and deflectors can have essentially the same operative position when the wire is in contact with them. Counterholder and deflection devices are only moved alternately into this active position.
- the motor-driven drive rollers are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the wire outside of the counterholder and deflection devices, i. that is, they take them between them when they are in their operative position. This means that the drive rollers can press and transport wire material in the direction of the counterholders and the deflection devices.
- Each drive roller can have a counter-roller and form a pair of drive rollers with it, which transports the wire between them and clamps it for the most slip-free transport possible.
- a motor-driven auxiliary drive roller can be provided which transports wire from a supply to the drive rollers.
- a wire cutter is preferably provided between the auxiliary drive roller and the nearest drive roller to cut the piece of wire being processed from the wire stock.
- a simple design of the invention is achieved when the counter-holders are protruding sections of a one-piece bending jaw arranged next to one another.
- the counterholders thus merge into one another, so to speak, at a connecting bridge.
- the outer shape of the bent part should be adapted to the shape of the gap between the counter-holders and should be shaped in a complementary manner. Naturally there must still be a small gap to accommodate the wire so that it is not unnecessarily crushed.
- the deflection devices are designed as baffles with an arcuate bending surface for the wire.
- the bending surface should be designed as a sliding surface for the wire. Roles are not necessary here and even disadvantageous.
- a special embodiment of the invention provides that the drive rollers are controlled in such a way that during the twisting of the wire, in particular during the entire twisting process, they press wire sections towards one another and in the direction of the gripper.
- the propelling force of the gripper is preferably not sufficient to transport the wire further during twisting, i. H. transport non-twisted sections of the ends of the wire halves. This is done by the drive rollers, which in this process state also transport wire to the bending surfaces.
- a post-processing station can be provided, into which the twisted wire can be inserted and which twists the wire further and/or cuts the bristles on the outside.
- a particularly effective device results when the post-processing station has a fixed gripper that can grasp the free ends of the wire halves.
- the device is rotatable or pivotable, e.g. B. It has a rotatable base to which several rotatable grippers are attached.
- a rotatable gripper that has just been used is transferred from a feed station (this is the station with counterholder and drive rollers) to the post-processing station together with the just twisted wire that it is still gripping.
- the wire that has just been twisted is gripped by the stationary gripper, with the rotating gripper being set in rotation for further twisting.
- the stationary gripper can of course also be released, ie set in motion with the rotating gripper via the wire, so that a knife can be moved along the bristles on the outside in order to cut them off.
- FIG 1 a device 10 for producing round brushes is shown.
- a stylized supply 12 for wire from which the wire is drawn and transported into the device.
- a guide 20 is there to act as a counter knife and at the same time guide the wire.
- a first pair of drive rollers a first motor-driven drive roller 22 and a counter-roller 24 which receive the wire between them.
- a second pair of drive rollers at a significant distance therefrom comprises a second motor-driven drive roller 26 and a counter-roller 28, which take up the free end of the wire 30 and move it, for example, up to a stop 32.
- the stop 32 is adjustable, as indicated by the arrows 34, in order to be able to variably set the length of the piece of wire between the blade 18 and the stop 32.
- the wire 30 runs linearly between the first and second pairs of drive rollers and also up to the auxiliary pair of drive rollers, as shown in FIG figure 1 is good to see.
- a transverse to the longitudinal direction of the wire or the longitudinal extension of the wire (linear extension in the unbent state according to figure 1 ) reciprocating bending part 38 has a pin 40.
- This pin 40 faces the wire 30 .
- a one-piece bending jaw 42 is provided, which comprises two spaced-apart counter-holders 44, which are integrally connected to one another by a web 46 and form a gap 48 between them.
- the free ends of the anvils each run over an arc 50, which extends over essentially 90°, from the longitudinal direction of the wire 30 to the gap 48, where the arc then essentially merges into a section which is 90° to the longitudinal direction of the Wire 30 runs.
- two deflection devices 52, 54 are provided which are designed to be adjustable in one or more directions and which are also located between the pairs of drive rollers. As will be explained later, these deflection devices 52, 54 are used when twisting the wire.
- bristle feeder 56 Shown symbolically is a bristle feeder 56 carrying bristles 58 which are successively received and clamped between the wire halves being formed.
- Both the counter-holder 42, d. H. the entire bending part 38 as well as the deflection devices 52, 54 can be moved so that they come into action one after the other and are acted upon by the wire 30 one after the other in order to control its bending.
- the bending part 38 is moved in the direction of the bending jaw 42 in the direction of the arrow, so that the pin 40 grasps the wire in the area of its center, i.e. in relation to the longitudinal extent, and presses it between the counter-holder 44, as in FIG figure 2 , shown above.
- the peg 40 is made complementary to the recess or gap 48
- the shape of the bent or kinked portion of the wire 30 is created very precisely (see FIG figure 2 ).
- both the bending part 38 is moved outwards, as is the bending jaw 42 with the counter-holders 44, as in figure 2 , below, shown with the arrows.
- the wire 30 then has a bend or kink in its middle.
- the bending jaw 42 After the bending jaw 42 has been moved laterally, it is preferably also moved into or out of the plane of the drawing to clear the way for a gripper 60 to be fed in from the side, which can be set in rotation by a motor and which can also be moved by motor along a guide 62.
- the guide 62 extends essentially perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction of the wire 30, always based on the state of the wire in figure 1 .
- the gripper grasps the so-called eye 64, i. H. the kink or bending point at its tip and clamps it.
- the deflection devices 52, 54 are moved into their active position according to FIG figure 3 proceedings.
- This operative position corresponds approximately to the operative position of the counter-holder 44 in figure 1 and figure 2 above.
- the deflection devices 52, 54 can also be moved from the side, ie in the plane of the drawing or out of the plane of the drawing.
- the deflectors 52, 54 are formed with an arcuate flexing surface 66 which acts as a sliding surface along which the wire is pulled as the gripper 60 rotates the eyelet 64 while pulling it to the right in the direction of the arrow (see Fig figure 3 ).
- the linear wire sections of the two wire halves then travel along their arcuate bending surfaces 66 and are drawn into the intermediate space between the deflection devices 52, 54 and are also bent in the process.
- the arcuate bending surface thus extends through substantially 90°.
- lateral limiters represented by rollers, can be present here, which prevent the wire from slipping off the respective bending surface 66 .
- the drive rollers 22, 26 are set in motion, pushing wire material from the two non-bent ends of the wire halves towards one another in the direction of the deflection devices 52, 54 and thus towards the gripper 60 pulling the wire. This is necessary because the feed force of the wire withdrawal gripper is too small to overcome the friction of the wire on the bending surfaces 66 itself.
- the drive of the gripper 60 for rotation is in particular torque-controlled, it can be achieved by a servomotor.
- a servomotor preferably all driven drive rollers also use servomotors, which can be adjusted very well with regard to their speed.
- the deflection devices 52, 54 have a very simple design, they contain hardened surfaces, are therefore very easy to produce from steel and, above all, are very robust.
- the device can optionally be equipped with a post-processing station in which the bristles are cut, for example (see Fig figure 7 ) where a cutter or knife 70 is traversed along the nearly finished brush while it is rotated.
- a post-processing station in which the bristles are cut, for example (see Fig figure 7 ) where a cutter or knife 70 is traversed along the nearly finished brush while it is rotated.
- an additional twisting can also take place in the post-processing station, which bears the reference number 72, as already indicated.
- the device has a rotatable guide, for example a drum, on which the gripper 60 can move, so that the already twisted wire no longer has to be gripped again.
- a base 76 can be seen being moved on the guide 74 .
- the gripper 60 is then moved in the longitudinal direction along the base 76 .
- Several rotatable grippers 60 sit on the guide 74 and can be clocked in and out in different stations. In the figure 6 upper station is the feeding station, which is just in view figure 1 explained became.
- An intermediate support 78 supports the free end of the twisted wire as it is withdrawn from the diverters 52,54.
- the device is then rotated, ie the guide 74 or the base 76 itself is rotated, so that the rotatable gripper 60 ends up in a post-processing station 72 together with the intermediate holder 78 and the wire 30 .
- a stationary gripper 80 which grips the free ends of the wire 30 .
- the gripper 80 can be delivered in the linear direction, like that Figures 6 and 7 demonstrate. When the gripper 80 has grasped the free ends, the gripper 60 can turn again, so that twisting is possible. Of course, the gripper 80 could also rotate, this even makes sense for post-processing by cutting.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Herstellen von Rundbürsten.The invention relates to a device for producing round brushes.
Rundbürsten werden dadurch hergestellt, dass ein Draht zuerst gefaltet und dann während eines Verdrillprozesses Borsten zwischen den sich verdrillenden Drahthälften eingeklemmt werden.Round brushes are made by first folding a wire and then pinching bristles between the twisting halves of the wire during a twisting process.
Solche Vorrichtung arbeiten mit extrem hohen Geschwindigkeiten, und der Draht muss aus einer linearen Form erst im Bereich seiner Mitte etwas eingeknickt werden, woraufhin ihn ein sich drehender Greifer erfassen kann. Die linearen Abschnitte des Drahts, die noch nicht gebogen sind, werden über Umlenkeinrichtungen in den Verdrillbereich gezogen, denn der sich drehende Greifer wird üblicherweise auch linear, quer zur Längserstreckung des umgebogenen Drahtes verfahren, sodass eine Drahtzuführung erfolgen muss.Such devices operate at extremely high speeds, and the wire must first be buckled slightly near its center from a linear shape, after which a rotating gripper can grip it. The linear sections of the wire that have not yet been bent are pulled into the twisting area via deflection devices, because the rotating gripper is usually also moved linearly, transversely to the longitudinal extension of the bent wire, so that the wire has to be fed.
Die Druckschrift
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, die verschiedenen Funktionen, die in einer Vorrichtung zum Herstellung von Rundbürsten erfüllt werden müssen, möglichst leicht einstellbar zu machen und eine individuelle Optimierung dieser verschiedenen Funktionen herbeizuführen.The object of the invention is to make it as easy as possible to adjust the various functions that must be fulfilled in a device for producing round brushes and to bring about an individual optimization of these various functions.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch Anspruch 1 gelöst.This object is solved by claim 1.
Die Längserstreckung oder Längsrichtung des Drahtes ist dabei die Richtung des Drahtes, wenn dieser noch nicht geknickt ist, sondern nur in die Vorrichtung zugeführt wird. Hier ist der Draht linear.The longitudinal extension or longitudinal direction of the wire is the direction of the wire when it is not yet bent but is only being fed into the device. Here the wire is linear.
Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung hat zwei gegenüberliegende Gegenhalter, die voneinander beabstandet sind und die dazu dienen, das Biegeteil zwischen sich aufzunehmen, wenn der Draht zum ersten Mal geknickt oder mittig etwas gebogen werden soll.The device according to the invention has two opposing counter-holders which are spaced apart from one another and which serve to accommodate the bending part between them when the wire is to be bent for the first time or slightly bent in the middle.
Erfindungsgemäß sind zusätzlich zu den gegenüberliegenden Gegenhaltern auch noch voneinander beabstandete Umklenkeinrichtungen, beispielsweise in Form von Schikanen, zur Anlage des Drahtes vorgesehen. Längs dieser Umlenkeinrichtungen werden die Drahthälften, nachdem der Draht in der Mitte gebogen oder gefaltet ist, geführt. Die Umlenkeinrichtungen bilden damit einen Übergang von den nicht gebogenen Drahtabschnitten der Drahthälften zu den quer zur Längsrichtung zum rotierbaren Greifer führenden Drahtabschnitten. An diesen Umlenkeinrichtungen liegt der Draht an, wenn er seine Richtung ändern muss, nämlich von der Längsrichtung zu der quer, fast 90° dazu verlaufenden Richtung zum Greifer.According to the invention, in addition to the opposing counter-holders, deflection devices that are spaced apart from one another, for example in the form of baffles, are also provided for the attachment of the wire. The wire halves are guided along these deflection devices after the wire has been bent or folded in the middle. The deflection devices thus form a transition from the non-bent wire sections of the wire halves to the wire sections leading transversely to the longitudinal direction to the rotatable gripper. The wire rests against these deflection devices when it has to change its direction, namely from the longitudinal direction to the direction running transversely, almost 90° to the gripper.
Erfindungsgemäß sind Gegenhalter und die Umlenkeinrichtungen verschiedene Teile und nacheinander mit dem Draht in Kontakt bringbar. Dies ist im Stand der Technik nicht der Fall, denn hier sind Gegenhalter und Umlenkeinrichtungen immer dieselben Teile, die permanent mit dem Draht in Kontakt sind. Dadurch, dass Gegenhalter und Umlenkeinrichtungen jedoch erfindungsgemäß unterschiedliche Teile sind, können sie einzeln optimal auf ihre Funktionen angepasst werden. So sind die Gegenhalter perfekt auf das zwischen ihnen aufgenommene Biegeteil abgestimmt, um den Draht zwischen den Gegenhaltern und dem Biegeteil perfekt zu formen und zu klemmen. Auch die Umlenkeinrichtungen können optimiert werden. Die Umlenkeinrichtungen dienen nämlich dazu, einerseits den Draht umzulenken und andererseits dem Draht auch einen gewissen Widerstand entgegenzusetzen, damit das Drahtstück zwischen Greifer und Umlenkeinrichtung unter Spannung gehalten wird, wenn es verdrillt wird. Separate Bremseinrichtungen sind bei der Vorrichtung deshalb unnötig.According to the invention, the counter-holder and the deflection devices are different parts and can be brought into contact with the wire one after the other. This is not the case in the prior art because here the counterholder and deflection devices are always the same parts that are permanently in contact with the wire. Due to the fact that counterholder and deflection devices are different parts according to the invention, however, they can individually be optimally adapted to their functions. The counterholders are perfectly matched to the part to be bent between them, in order to perfectly shape and clamp the wire between the counterholders and the part to be bent. The deflection devices can also be optimized. The purpose of the deflection devices is, on the one hand, to deflect the wire and, on the other hand, to offer a certain resistance to the wire, so that the piece of wire between the gripper and the deflection device is kept under tension when it is twisted. Separate braking devices are therefore unnecessary in the device.
Die Gegenhalter und/oder die Umlenkeinrichtungen sind so verfahrbar, dass sie mit dem Draht in Kontakt und außer Kontakt gebracht werden können, um eine Biegeoberfläche für den Draht zu bilden, längs der der Draht bewegt und gebogen wird.The anvils and/or the deflection devices are movable so that they can be brought into and out of contact with the wire in order to form a bending surface for the wire along which the wire is moved and bent.
Die Umlenkeinrichtungen ebenso wie die Gegenhalter sind in Längsrichtung des nicht gebogenen Drahtes und/oder quer zur Längsrichtung verstellbar. Somit werden entweder die Gegenhalter zugestellt, um mit dem Draht in Kontakt zu kommen, oder die Umlenkeinrichtungen. Zuerst sind es im Verfahrensablauf die Gegenhalter, damit das Biegeteil zwischen die Gegenhalter drücken kann und den Draht biegt oder knickt. Anschließend kommen dann aber die Umlenkeinrichtungen in Einsatz, wenn die Gegenhalter weggefahren sind. Dann wird der in seiner Mitte geknickte oder gebogene Draht an die Umlenkeinrichtungen angelegt oder, umgekehrt, die Umlenkeinrichtungen gegen den Draht gefahren, sodass dann der rotierbare Greifer den Draht weiter abziehen kann und dieser Draht gegen die Umlenkeinrichtungen drückt.The deflection devices as well as the counter-holders can be adjusted in the longitudinal direction of the non-bent wire and/or transversely to the longitudinal direction. Thus, either the counter-holders are advanced in order to come into contact with the wire, or the deflection devices. First, in the process, there are the Counterholder so that the part to be bent can press between the counterholders and bend or kink the wire. Then, however, the deflection devices are used when the counter-holders have moved away. then the wire that is kinked or bent in the middle is placed against the deflection devices or, conversely, the deflection devices are moved against the wire so that the rotatable gripper can then pull the wire further and this wire presses against the deflection devices.
Vorzugsweise kann der Draht immer in derselben Halterung bleiben, diese ist beispielsweise durch die Antriebsrollen definiert, während Gegenhalter und Umlenkeinrichtungen zugestellt werden. Das bedeutet, Gegenhalter und Umlenkeinrichtungen können im Wesentlichen dieselbe Wirkposition haben, wenn der Draht mit ihnen in Kontakt ist. Gegenhalter und Umlenkeinrichtungen werden nur abwechselnd in diese Wirkposition verfahren.Preferably, the wire can always remain in the same holder, which is defined, for example, by the drive rollers, while counter holders and deflection devices are delivered. That is, anvils and deflectors can have essentially the same operative position when the wire is in contact with them. Counterholder and deflection devices are only moved alternately into this active position.
Die motorisch angetriebenen Antriebsrollen sind in Längsrichtung des Drahts außerhalb der Gegenhalter und Umlenkeinrichtungen angeordnet, d. h., sie nehmen diese zwischen sich auf, wenn sie in ihrer Wirkposition sind. Das bedeutet, die Antriebsrollen können Drahtmaterial in Richtung zu den Gegenhaltern und zu den Umlenkeinrichtungen drücken und transportieren.The motor-driven drive rollers are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the wire outside of the counterholder and deflection devices, i. that is, they take them between them when they are in their operative position. This means that the drive rollers can press and transport wire material in the direction of the counterholders and the deflection devices.
Jede Antriebsrolle kann eine Gegenrolle haben und mit ihr ein Antriebsrollenpaar bilden, welches zwischen sich den Draht transportiert und, für den möglichst schlupffreien Transport, klemmt.Each drive roller can have a counter-roller and form a pair of drive rollers with it, which transports the wire between them and clamps it for the most slip-free transport possible.
Außerhalb des Bereichs zwischen den Antriebsrollen kann eine motorisch angetriebene Hilfsantriebsrolle vorgesehen sein, die Draht von einem Vorrat zu den Antriebsrollen transportiert.Outside the area between the drive rollers, a motor-driven auxiliary drive roller can be provided which transports wire from a supply to the drive rollers.
Darüber hinaus ist vorzugsweise zwischen der Hilfsantriebsrolle und der nächstgelegenen Antriebsrolle eine Draht-Schneideeinrichtung vorgesehen, um das Drahtstück, welches bearbeitet wird, vom Drahtvorrat abzuschneiden.Furthermore, a wire cutter is preferably provided between the auxiliary drive roller and the nearest drive roller to cut the piece of wire being processed from the wire stock.
Eine einfache Gestaltung der Erfindung wird erreicht, wenn die Gegenhalter vorstehende, nebeneinander angeordnete Abschnitte eines einstückigen Biegebackens sind. Die Gegenhalter gehen damit an einem Verbindungssteg sozusagen ineinander über.A simple design of the invention is achieved when the counter-holders are protruding sections of a one-piece bending jaw arranged next to one another. The counterholders thus merge into one another, so to speak, at a connecting bridge.
Das Biegeteil sollte in seiner äußeren Form der Form des Spalts zwischen den Gegenhaltern angepasst sein und komplementär ausgeformt sein. Natürlich muss noch ein geringer Spalt zur Aufnahme des Drahtes vorhanden sein, damit dieser nicht unnötig stark gequetscht wird.The outer shape of the bent part should be adapted to the shape of the gap between the counter-holders and should be shaped in a complementary manner. Naturally there must still be a small gap to accommodate the wire so that it is not unnecessarily crushed.
Die Umlenkeinrichtungen sind gemäß der bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung als Schikanen mit einer bogenförmigen Biegeoberfläche für den Draht ausgebildet. Insbesondere sollte die Biegeoberfläche als Gleitfläche für den Draht ausgebildet sein. Rollen sind hier nicht nötig und sogar nachteilig.According to the preferred embodiment of the invention, the deflection devices are designed as baffles with an arcuate bending surface for the wire. In particular, the bending surface should be designed as a sliding surface for the wire. Roles are not necessary here and even disadvantageous.
Eine besondere Ausführungsform der Erfindung sieht vor, dass die Antriebsrollen so angesteuert werden, dass sie während des Verdrillens des Drahtes, insbesondere während des gesamten Verdrillprozesses, Drahtabschnitte aufeinander zu und in Richtung zum Greifer drücken. Das bedeutet, die Vortriebskraft des Greifers ist vorzugsweise nicht ausreichend, um den Draht beim Drillen weiterzutransportieren, d. h. nicht verdrillte Abschnitte der Enden der Drahthälften heranzutransportieren. Dies übernehmen die Antriebsrollen, die in diesem Verfahrenszustand auch noch Draht zu den Biegeoberflächen transportieren.A special embodiment of the invention provides that the drive rollers are controlled in such a way that during the twisting of the wire, in particular during the entire twisting process, they press wire sections towards one another and in the direction of the gripper. This means that the propelling force of the gripper is preferably not sufficient to transport the wire further during twisting, i. H. transport non-twisted sections of the ends of the wire halves. This is done by the drive rollers, which in this process state also transport wire to the bending surfaces.
Es kann eine Nachbearbeitungsstation vorgesehen sein, in die der verdrillte Draht einsetzbar ist und die den Draht weiterverdrillt und/oder außenseitig die Borsten schneidet.A post-processing station can be provided, into which the twisted wire can be inserted and which twists the wire further and/or cuts the bristles on the outside.
Eine besonders effektive Vorrichtung ergibt sich dann, wenn die Nachbearbeitungsstation einen feststehenden Greifer hat, der die freien Enden der Drahthälften erfassen kann. Die Vorrichtung ist drehbar oder schwenkbar, z. B. hat sie eine drehbare Basis, an der mehrere rotierbare Greifer befestigt sind. Durch Drehen wird ein gerade im Einsatz gewesener rotierbarer Greifer zusammen mit dem gerade verdrillten Draht, den er noch erfasst, aus einer Zuführstation (das ist die Station mit Gegenhalter und Antriebsrollen) in die Nachbearbeitungsstation überführt. Dort wird der gerade verdrillte Draht vom feststehenden Greifer erfasst, wobei für das weitere Verdrillen der rotierende Greifer in Drehung versetzbar ist. Alternativ hierzu kann natürlich auch der feststehende Greifer losgelassen werden, d. h. mit dem rotierenden Greifer über den Draht mit in Bewegung versetzt werden, sodass außenseitig ein Messer entlang der Borsten verfahren werden kann, um sie abzuschneiden.A particularly effective device results when the post-processing station has a fixed gripper that can grasp the free ends of the wire halves. The device is rotatable or pivotable, e.g. B. It has a rotatable base to which several rotatable grippers are attached. By turning, a rotatable gripper that has just been used is transferred from a feed station (this is the station with counterholder and drive rollers) to the post-processing station together with the just twisted wire that it is still gripping. There, the wire that has just been twisted is gripped by the stationary gripper, with the rotating gripper being set in rotation for further twisting. As an alternative to this, the stationary gripper can of course also be released, ie set in motion with the rotating gripper via the wire, so that a knife can be moved along the bristles on the outside in order to cut them off.

Eine Führung 20 ist dazu da, als Gegenmesser zu fungieren und gleichzeitig den Draht zu führen. Nach der Führung 20 ist ein erstes Antriebsrollenpaar mit einer ersten motorisch angetriebenen Antriebsrolle 22 sowie einer Gegenrolle 24 angeordnet, die zwischen sich den Draht aufnehmen. Ein davon deutlich beabstandetes zweites Antriebsrollenpaar umfasst eine zweite motorisch angetriebene Antriebsrolle 26 sowie eine Gegenrolle 28, die das freie Ende des Drahtes 30 aufnehmen und beispielsweise bis zu einem Anschlag 32 verfahren. Der Anschlag 32 ist, wie mit den Pfeilen 34 angedeutet, verstellbar, um die Länge des Drahtstücks zwischen dem Messer 18 und dem Anschlag 32 variabel einstellen zu können.A
Der Draht 30 verläuft zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Antriebsrollenpaar und auch bis zum Hilfsantriebsrollenpaar linear, wie in
Um den Draht 30 zu biegen, sind die folgenden Einrichtungen vorgesehen. Ein quer zur Drahtlängsrichtung oder Drahtlängserstreckung (Linearerstreckung im ungebogenen Zustand gemäß
Dieser Zapfen 40 ist dem Draht 30 zugewandt. Auf der zum Zapfen 40 entgegengesetzten Seite des Drahtes, dem Zapfen also gegenüberliegend, ist ein einstückiger Biegebacken 42 vorgesehen, der zwei voneinander beabstandete Gegenhalter 44 umfasst, die durch einen Steg 46 einstückig miteinander verbunden sind und zwischen sich einen Spalt 48 bilden. Die freien Enden der Gegenhalter verlaufen jeweils über einen Bogen 50, der sich über im Wesentlichen 90° erstreckt, von der Längsrichtung des Drahtes 30 bis zu dem Spalt 48, wo der Bogen dann im Wesentlichen in einen Abschnitt übergeht, der 90° zur Längsrichtung des Drahts 30 verläuft.This
Darüber hinaus sind zwei Umlenkeinrichtungen 52, 54 vorgesehen, die in einer oder mehreren Richtungen verstellbar ausgebildet sind und die ebenfalls zwischen den Antriebsrollenpaaren liegen. Diese Umlenkeinrichtungen 52, 54 werden, wie später noch erläutert wird, beim Verdrillen des Drahtes eingesetzt.In addition, two
Symbolisch dargestellt ist eine Borstenzuführeinrichtung 56, welche Borsten 58 trägt, die nacheinander zwischen den Drahthälften, die gebildet werden, aufgenommen und verklemmt werden.Shown symbolically is a
Sowohl die Gegenhalter 42, d. h. das gesamte Biegeteil 38, als auch die Umlenkeinrichtungen 52, 54 sind verfahrbar, sodass sie nacheinander in Aktion treten und nacheinander vom Draht 30 beaufschlagt werden, um seine Biegung zu steuern.Both the counter-holder 42, d. H. the entire bending

Nach dem seitlichen Verfahren des Biegebackens 42 wird dieser vorzugsweise auch noch in oder aus der Zeichenebene herausgefahren, um den Weg freizumachen für einen seitlich zuzustellenden Greifer 60, der durch einen Motor in Drehung versetzt werden kann und der zudem längs einer Führung 62 motorisch verfahrbar ist. Die Führung 62 erstreckt sich im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Längsrichtung des Drahtes 30, immer bezogen auf den Zustand des Drahtes in

Die Umlenkeinrichtungen 52, 54 können aber auch von der Seite, d. h. in Zeichenebene oder aus der Zeichenebene heraus verfahren werden.However, the
Die Umlenkeinrichtungen 52, 54 sind mit einer bogenförmigen Biegeoberfläche 66 ausgebildet, die als Gleitfläche wirkt und entlang der der Draht gezogen wird, wenn der Greifer 60 das Auge 64 in Drehung versetzt und gleichzeitig in Pfeilrichtung nach rechts zieht (siehe
Die bogenförmige Biegeoberfläche verläuft somit über im Wesentlichen 90°.The arcuate bending surface thus extends through substantially 90°.
Zusätzlich können hier seitliche Begrenzer, durch Rollen dargestellt, vorhanden sein, die ein Abrutschen des Drahtes von der jeweiligen Biegeoberfläche 66 verhindern.In addition, lateral limiters, represented by rollers, can be present here, which prevent the wire from slipping off the

Während des Verdrillvorgangs werden die Antriebsrollen 22, 26 in Bewegung versetzt, wobei sie Drahtmaterial von den beiden nicht gebogenen Enden der Drahthälften aufeinander zu in Richtung zu den Umlenkeinrichtungen 52, 54 und damit zum den Draht ziehenden Greifer 60 drücken. Dies ist deshalb notwendig, weil die Vorschubkraft des Greifers zum Drahtabzug zu gering ist, um die Reibung des Drahts an den Biegeoberflächen 66 selbst zu überwinden.During the twisting process, the

Dies gilt auch für das Biegeteil und den Biegebacken. Diese Teile sind ebenfalls sehr einfach herstellbar, vor allem sind sie auch sehr einfach an die gewünschte optimale Form anpassbar. Nicht jeder Draht muss ein identisch ausgebildetes Auge haben, vielmehr ist es sinnvoll, dieses Auge optimal zu gestalten, je nach Drahtdicke usw. Diese Anpassung erfolgt durch optimal gestaltete Zapfen 40 und Gegenhalter 44 samt Spalt 48.This also applies to the bending part and the bending jaws. These parts are also very easy to produce, above all they are also very easy to adapt to the desired optimum shape. Not every wire has to have an identically designed eye, rather it makes sense to design this eye optimally, depending on the wire thickness, etc. This adaptation is carried out by means of optimally designed pins 40 and

Das Besondere an der Vorrichtung ist auch, dass das Verdrillen mit dem Greifer 60 nicht bis in den endgültigen Verdrillzustand der Rundbürste erfolgt. Vielmehr wird eine sehr leicht gedrillte Spirale erzeugt, die nachverdrillt wird, um die notwendige und gewünschte Verdrehung der Drahthälften zu erreichen und die richtige Spannung zu erzeugen. Es reicht gerade aus, dass die Borsten nicht aus dem verdrillten Draht herausfallen, bevor die Rundbürste nachgearbeitet wird.What is also special about the device is that the twisting with the

Die Vorrichtung hat, damit der bereits verdrillte Draht nicht mehr neu gefasst werden muss, eine drehbare Führung, beispielsweise eine Trommel, auf der der Greifer 60 beweglich ist. Hier ist eine Basis 76 zu sehen, die auf der Führung 74 bewegt wird. Längs der Basis 76 wird dann der Greifer 60 in Längsrichtung verfahren. Auf der Führung 74 sitzen mehrere rotierbare Greifer 60, die in verschiedene Stationen ein- und ausgetaktet werden können. Die in
