- a free end of the adhesive tape 7 is passed through an unwinding device (not shown). An outgoing from the adhesive tape roll 6 end portion is continuously withdrawn by the unwinding of the adhesive tape roll 6.
- the folded adhesive tape 8 is produced from the adhesive tape 7 wound on the adhesive tape roll 6.
- a folded adhesive tape 8 is to be understood here as an adhesive tape that has a greater thickness than the adhesive tape 7.
- a plasma source 20 is shown schematically, as used in the applicator 1 according to FIG. 1.
- the adhesive tape 7 is shown, the plasma source 20 has a width B which substantially corresponds to the width B of the adhesive tape 7, the direction of movement of the adhesive tape is provided in Fig. 2 perpendicular to the plane, ie in the longitudinal direction L, the Tape 7 is pulled as it were out of the drawing up under the plasma source 20.
- the adhesive tape 7 has the free, activatable adhesive tape side 31 facing the plasma source 20 and the adhesive tape side facing away from the plasma source 20 and covered with the liner 32.
- a cross-linking process is initiated in an adhesive of the adhesive layer 30 of the adhesive tape 7, the adhesive layer 30 is tacky, but polymers of the adhesive layer 30 are not completely cross-linked, so that the adhesive layer 30 is not cured and no permanently fixed connection with can form the surface of a joining part.
- the crosslinking process is initiated by the treatment with a plasma adapted to the adhesive, the crosslinking process is matched in duration so that the folded adhesive tape can be applied to the adherend even after folding.
- the plasma source 20 has an input 21 for a process gas 22.
- the process gas is air or water vapor, but nitrogen, noble gases or a mixture of these substances can also be used.
- the process gas 22 is guided past an electrode tip 23, the electrode tip 23 is connected to a high-frequency AC voltage 24 of a few kV and a frequency of about 50 Hz to 50 kHz. Between the electrode 23 and a counter electrode 25, a strong alternating electric field results, which leads to a discharge.
- the process gas 22 flowing past the electrodes 23 and 25 is ionized and forms the typical plasma atmosphere 26 from the process gas and the discharge parameters.
- reactive substances are added to the plasma atmosphere, such as oxygen, hydrogen, ammonia, ethylene, carbon dioxide, siloxanes, acrylic acid, peroxides and / or solvents.
- the reactive substances are matched to the adhesive of the adhesive layer 30 of the adhesive tape 7.
- the plasma enriched with the precursor strikes the activatable free adhesive tape side 31 and initiates a linking process in the adhesive layer 30.
- the adhesive tape 7 shown in FIG. 3 in cross-section perpendicular to its longitudinal direction L is first wound on the adhesive tape roll 6, the adhesive tape 7 comprises an adhesive film 30 with a free reactive outer side 31 and a liner 32 which extends along one of the free reactive outer side 31 opposite side is arranged on the adhesive film 30.
- the free reactive outer side 31 of the adhesive film 30 is pressure-sensitive.
- the liner 32 Before the folding process or between individual folding operations, the liner 32 can also be removed or at least portions of the liner 32 can be removed from the adhesive tape 7.
- a collecting container 1 1 for liner residues 43, 51, 54 of the liner 32 is provided.
- a folded adhesive tape 8 leaves the folding device 10, the folded adhesive tape 8 is further protected on an outer side with a part of the liner remaining after the folding operation and separating operation of the liner part, while an outside opposite the left-over liner part remains activated ,
- the folded adhesive tape 8 produced by folding has a thickness which corresponds to twice, three times, four times or any higher integer number of thicknesses of the adhesive tape 7.
- the folded adhesive tape 8 leaves the application outlet with a leftover liner 42.
- the adhesive tape 7 has an adhesive layer 30 and a thinner compared to the thickness of the adhesive layer 30 thinner liner, adhesive layer 30 and liner 32 have an identical Width B, so that one side of the adhesive layer 30 is completely covered by the liner 32, while a liner 32 opposite the outside 31 of the adhesive layer 30 is free.
- FIGS. 4a, 4b, 4c shows a simple folding of the adhesive tape 7, while the fold shown in FIGS. 5a, 5b, 5c represents a double folding of the adhesive tape along one or two fold lines extending in the longitudinal direction L, respectively.
- FIG. 4a shows the state in which the adhesive tape 7 is completely folded.
- the liner 32 surrounds the simply folded adhesive layer 30 in a U-shape.
- the folding device 10 also comprises a cutting device (not shown) with which a L-shaped liner 43 perpendicular to the longitudinal direction L is removed from the simply folded adhesive tape 7 , and a leftover liner 42 remains on the folded adhesive layer 30 so that a single folded adhesive tape 8 as shown in FIG. 4c is produced leaving the applicator 1 at the exit 3.
- the single-folded adhesive tape 8 has on one side a leftover liner 42, while the left side of the leftover liner 42 of the second adhesive layer 30 is free. It is conceivable in other embodiments of the invention that the folded adhesive tape is activated again with another (not shown) plasma source. The activation would then take place at the newly created during the folded tape free outer side 41.
- FIG. 5a, 5b a double folding is shown, the double folding is also from the adhesive tape 7 of FIG. 3, wherein the adhesive tape 7 is not in the longitudinal direction L in the middle, but along a longitudinal direction L extending fold line, in a One-third of the width B runs takes place.
- FIG. 5a shows the completely folded-over adhesive layer 30 from which a liner 51 having a L-shaped cross-section has already been removed.
- a third third of the adhesive tape 7 is folded over the already folded portion of the adhesive tape 7, as the arrow shown in Fig. 5b shows, so that a two-fold adhesive tape 8 is formed, which is composed of three superposed adhesive layers 30.
- a left-over liner 52 is arranged and on the side opposite the remaining liner 52, a free outer side 53 remains.
- a liner residue 54 is separated again with the cutting device.
- the adhesive film 30 comprises a polymeric film-forming matrix, at least one reactive monomer or reactive resin and at least one initiator, in particular a radical initiator.
- the adhesive films 30 basically consist of a matrix which is referred to below as the polymeric film-forming matrix in which the reactive monomers to be polymerized and / or reactive resins are contained.
- the task of this matrix is to form an inert skeleton for the reactive monomers and / or reactive resins, so that they are not liquid but are incorporated in a film or a film. In this way, easy handling is ensured.
- Inert in this context means that the reactive monomers and / or reactive resins under suitably selected conditions (for example, if sufficient low temperatures) substantially do not react with the polymeric film former matrix.
- FIGS. 6a, 6b the folding mechanism 10 is shown, from which the adhesive tape 80, which consists of a first adhesive tape 7 and a plasma initiator, is supplied.
- the adhesive tape 80 is pressed in movement in the longitudinal direction L in a guide rail 14.
- the guide rail 14 has a changing angle with respect to its center line in the longitudinal direction L.
- the contour wheel may be a cutting element that liner 32 and / or the adhesive tape 80 cuts along the fold line.
