Definitions

  • This invention relates to an anti-static apparatus for neutralising an electrostatically charged surface.
  • An anti-static bar generates an electrical field that causes the air molecules in the vicinity of the anti-static bar to break down into positive and negative ions. Any charged material passing nearby the anti-static bar will attract charged ions and the charge on the material is thereby neutralised.
  • An anti-static bar can be used to prevent attraction of dust to the surface, and also reduces the risk of explosions, fire hazards, and electrical shocks.
  • JP2012079714A discloses a static eliminator for bringing the charge amount of a charged body charged with a positive or negative charge close to zero.
  • an anti-static apparatus for neutralising an electrostatically charged surface, for example a moving web, the anti-static apparatus comprising:
  • the transformer may be an AC-AC transformer.
  • the voltage supply unit further comprises a voltage multiplier arranged to receive the output voltage of the transformer.
  • the voltage multiplier may receive the AC output voltage of the transformer, and may output a DC voltage with higher voltage to the positive and negative emitters.
  • the voltage supply unit further comprises a switching circuit configured to switch the output voltage supplied to the positive and negative emitters on and off.
  • the switching circuit comprises an H-bridge.
  • the switching circuit is configured to simultaneously apply a positive voltage to the at least one positive emitter and a negative voltage to the at least one negative emitter.
  • the switching circuit is adapted to switch the voltages applied to the positive and negative emitters on and off at a frequency of between 0Hz and 5kHz, for example about 150Hz.
  • the high voltage side of the voltage supply unit is floating with respect to ground.
  • the anti-static apparatus further comprises a grounding connector arranged proximal to the at least one positive emitter and the at least one negative emitter.
  • the anti-static apparatus may further comprise a housing, and the housing may comprise an open side.
  • the housing may be mountable, for example by one or more fasteners, to a machine or other apparatus.
  • the housing may be mountable to a web handling machine such that the open side of the housing is directed towards a moving web of material.
  • the at least one positive emitter and the at least one negative emitter may be arranged at the open side of the housing.
  • the anti-static apparatus further comprises a grounding connector arranged about the open side of the housing.

  • the anti-static apparatus in this example an anti-static bar 1
  • the surface 2 may be electrostatically charged and the anti-static bar 1 may act to neutralise the electrostatic charge.
  • the anti-static bar 1 has an elongate housing 3 having an open side.
  • the emitters comprise positive emitters and negative emitters.
  • a voltage supply unit applies a voltage across the positive and negative emitters and this generates an electric field that charges particles surrounding the anti-static bar 1, creating a corona discharge in the vicinity of the surface 2.
  • the charged particles are drawn to the surface 2 by the electrostatic charge on the surface 2, thereby neutralising the electrostatic charge.
  • a grounding connector is provided on the housing 3.
  • the anti-static bar 1 has an operating range.
  • the anti-static bar 1 is mounted or positioned relative to the surface 2 such that the surface 2 is within the operating range of the anti-static bar 1.
  • the operating range may depend on, among other factors, the magnitude of the voltage applied across the emitters.
  • the operating range i.e., the distance between the anti-static bar 1 and the surface 2 is between about 5 millimetres and about 100 millimetres, or between about 10 millimetres and about 50 millimetres.
  • the operating range 4 is measured from the grounding connector (11, see FIG. 2 ).
  • the surface 2 is a web of material, such as a polymer web.
  • the surface 2 may be a surface of an essentially insulating material, such as a polymer, and so electrostatic charges may accumulate on the surface 2.

  • the emitters 6 are preferably pin emitters comprising an upstanding pin.
  • the emitters 6 may have a pointed tip, a rounded tip, and/or a sharp edge.
  • the emitters 6 may be permanently attached, or they may be detachable from the anti-static bar 1 for replacement.
  • the anti-static bar 1 has a length of approximately 200 millimetres, but the length may be greater or less, and may be configured to correspond to the width of the surface 2 to be neutralised.
