  • a device for separating a flat web from a web material into a plurality of strips comprising a separating device and a deflecting device, the separating device comprising a first roller and a second roller cooperating with it, and the lateral surfaces of the rollers alternating in the axial direction in the circumferential direction of the respective roller have closed grooves and blades and in an effective area the blades of the first roller engage in the grooves of the second roller and the blades of the second roller engage in the grooves of the first roller, and the separating device is set up to insert the flat web to separate a plurality of adjacent strips, and wherein the deflector device comprises at least one deflector element, the webs of which engage in the grooves of the first or second roller, the device being developed in that the at least one deflector element is designed in sections as a plate-shaped deflector, which is downstream of the effective range of the separating device forms a closed surface which extends in the axial direction over at least two webs.
  • the plate-shaped deflector of the deflector extends outside the rollers.
  • the location of the deflector should be understood in light of the following explanations.
  • the deflector device comprises at least one deflector element, in many cases two deflector elements, the webs of which extend in some areas in the grooves between adjacent blades of the roller. These sections or areas of the webs extend within the cylindrical surface of the roller.
  • the outer circumferences of the roller blades span a cylindrical surface.
  • the blades of the first roller span a first cylindrical surface
  • the blades of the second roller span a second cylindrical surface. Viewed in a cross section that is perpendicular to the axes of rotation of the rollers, the first and second cylinder surface overlap each other.
  • the axes of rotation of the rollers are aligned parallel to each other. They extend in the axial direction.
  • the overlapping area of the cylinder surface should be referred to as the effective area.
  • the plate-shaped deflector lies outside and downstream of this effective area. It lies outside the rollers, i.e. outside an area or volume that is surrounded by the first cylinder surface and the second cylinder surface.
  • an extent of the plate-shaped deflector in the axial direction is greater than or equal to a dimension of the effective area in the axial direction.
  • the plate-shaped deflector is therefore dimensioned larger in the axial direction as the effective range of the separating device in this direction. This ensures that no strips created by the separating device fall down on the edge areas of the plate-shaped deflector and may possibly be lost in the subsequent production steps.
  • the reliability of the device with regard to uninterrupted production is further improved by such a design of the plate-shaped deflector.
  • the device is developed in that the webs of the at least one deflector element are held on one side of the plate-shaped deflector and extend from the deflector in the direction of their respective free ends into the grooves of the first roller or the second roller.
  • the deflector elements are designed in such a way that their webs are only connected to one another on the outlet side, namely via the deflector arranged downstream of the effective area, but not on the inlet side.
  • a deflector element designed in this way which is plate-shaped and closed only downstream of the effective area, is much easier to install. For example, it is possible to mount or replace the deflector element without having to dismantle the rollers of the separating device or even one of the two rollers of the separating device. This is always necessary for devices that are closed on both the inlet and outlet sides. However, since this is not provided for in the embodiment mentioned, there are great advantages with regard to assembly and service of the device for separating the flat web.
  • the webs viewed in cross section, are designed to be significantly higher than they are wide in order to give them the required mechanical stability.
  • deflector elements designed according to the above embodiment are, namely those deflector elements whose webs are only held on one side of the plate-shaped deflector.
  • At least one web of at least one deflector element in particular all webs of at least one deflector element, further in particular all webs of all deflector elements, have a T-shaped cross section.
  • a flat side of the T-shaped cross sections is oriented in the direction of this separation plane.
  • the flat side mentioned is a top side of the T when it is viewed written upright.
  • the cross section of the webs is viewed in a plane that is oriented transversely, in particular perpendicularly, to a longitudinal direction of the respective webs.
  • the webs are also viewed with regard to the previously mentioned feature, according to which they are made higher than they are wide.
  • the height of the webs is measured in one direction towards the parting plane. In other words, the webs have a larger dimension in a direction perpendicular to the parting plane than in a direction parallel to the parting plane.
  • the design of the webs with a T-shaped cross section is advantageous because only that part of the webs that comes into contact with the strips separated from the flat web and presses them out of the grooves of the rollers fills almost the entire groove width.
  • the part further towards the bottom of the groove is made much narrower (viewed in the axial direction of the rollers), which means that contamination can no longer block the separating device as easily.
  • contaminants can fall out of the deflectors in the direction of the groove base and can be removed, for example scraped out, from the groove base using a downstream device.
  • the device is designed in particular in such a way that the deflector device comprises a first and a second deflector element, which are arranged on opposite sides of a separation plane, with a shortest connection between a first axis of rotation of the first roller and a second axis of rotation of the second roller perpendicular to the separation plane stands, the two deflector elements being arranged on both sides of the separation plane, in particular mirror-symmetrically to the separation plane.
  • asymmetrical configurations are also provided in which the two deflector elements are not arranged mirror-symmetrically to the separation plane.
  • one of the two deflectors is arranged closer to the parting plane than the other.
  • This can in particular be the geodetically lower deflector.
  • This can, for example, be arranged in the immediate vicinity, i.e. just below the parting plane. It is therefore possible to support the strips emerging from the separating device from below so that they can be fed to the further process steps approximately within the separating plane.
  • the two deflectors diverge in a funnel shape downstream, i.e. in the process direction.
  • an asymmetrical configuration can be provided, for example only the upper (geodetically higher) of the two deflectors can be curved, so that a funnel-shaped extension results.
  • the separation plane is the same distance from the first and second axes of rotation. For rolls with radii of different sizes, the separation plane is closer to the roll with the smaller radius.
  • the first and second cylinder lateral surfaces intersect along two lines that run parallel to each other. These two lines lie in the separation plane.
  • deflector element there is therefore one deflector element per roller.
  • the strips that may be present in the grooves between the blades as a result of the separation process can be lifted out of the associated roller by the respective deflector element.
  • the strips are then reliably guided on the first or second deflector element.
  • the webs of the at least one deflector element extend in sections in a partial area of the grooves of the first or second roller, the plate-shaped deflector adjoining the webs downstream and connecting all webs to one another, and in particular the plate-shaped Deflectors and the webs are formed in one piece.
  • the plate-shaped deflector is located downstream of the webs.
  • the webs are located downstream of the effective area in some areas. Following the cylinder surface defined by the blades, the webs merge into the plate-shaped deflector.
  • the plate-shaped deflector is as close as possible to the cylinder surface. However, a distance between the cylinder surface and the plate-shaped deflector is chosen to be only so small that the associated roller can rotate freely about its axis of rotation.
  • the plate-shaped deflector and the webs are designed in one piece.
  • the deflector element or deflector elements are made in one piece.
  • the webs are made, for example, by cutting into a flat Component grooves are introduced.
  • the deflector element or deflector elements are therefore preferably designed in one piece of material.
  • the deflector element or deflector elements are designed to be flat, ie completely flat.
  • one or both deflector elements are curved.
  • the deflector elements viewed in a cross section that is perpendicular to the axial direction, can be bent in such a way that a funnel-shaped opening is created on both the inlet side and the outlet side. Upstream of the effective area, i.e. against the material flow direction, this funnel expands in the feed area. Downstream of the effective range of the separating device, i.e. in the material flow direction, the further funnel also expands.
  • the first and/or the second plate-shaped deflectors comprise a further plate-shaped deflector upstream of the effective area.
  • the plurality of webs of the first and/or second deflector element also extends in sections in a partial area of the grooves upstream of the effective area of the separating device and merges further upstream into the further plate-shaped deflector.
  • the further plate-shaped deflector adjoins the webs of the deflector element upstream.
  • the at least one deflector element is set up to exert a spring force acting in the direction of a separation plane on the flat web or the strips, with a shortest connection between a first axis of rotation of the first roller and a second axis of rotation of the second roller being perpendicular stands on the separation plane, wherein in particular the at least one deflector element is designed as a spring-elastic element and / or is mounted spring-loaded.
  • the first deflector element exerts a spring force in the direction of the second roller or is mounted spring-loaded in this direction.
  • the second deflector element acts in the direction of the first Roller exerts a spring force or is spring-loaded in this direction.
  • the spring force can be adjustable.
  • first and/or the second deflector element is designed or mounted to be adjustable, specifically in the direction of the opposite roller.
  • the first and/or second deflector elements are therefore adjustable. They are delivered to the opposite roller so that the strips made from the web material rest between a surface of the webs of the deflector element and an outer end face of the cutting edges. A material thickness of the web material is compensated for by the spring effect or the resilient mounting of the deflector element.
  • the at least one deflector element viewed in a plane that is perpendicular to the axial direction, has at least one S-impact.
  • the first and/or the second deflector element has a first S-shape in a first direction and a further S-shape in the opposite direction.
  • first S-stroke extended inlet area
  • second S -blow extended outlet area

  • the particle suction provided is advantageous because any particles remaining in the rollers as a result of the separation process can be removed from the ongoing production process in this way. They can be returned to the production process elsewhere or disposed of.
  • the device is designed such that the at least one deflector element is mechanically coupled to at least one vibration exciter, which is designed to set the deflector element into periodic or aperiodic oscillation.
  • At least one suspension of the deflector element is designed as a vibration exciter.
  • Suitable vibration exciters are, for example, piezo actuators, eccentrics or ultrasound generators.
  • a mechanical element rotating with unbalance is used as a vibration exciter.
  • the separating device is set up to separate immediately adjacent strips from one another along a predetermined separating line in the effective area by stretching the flat web transversely to the separating line to such an extent that it tears apart along the separating line.
  • the first and second rollers are not in direct contact with one another in the effective area.
  • the flat web is not cut along the dividing line by the interaction of two blades, but is torn in a defined manner by over-stretching. Since the flat web is not cut, but rather torn in a defined manner, open structures are created at the breaking edge, i.e. at the side edges of the strips.

  • a “recess” is to be understood as an intermittent or groove which is introduced into the corresponding blade in such a way that it interrupts the cutting edge of the blade.
  • a “helix” is meant to be a helix that has a constant pitch. The recesses arranged along the helix ensure that the flat web is separated with the separating device in such a way that the individual strips are connected to one another in pairs by webs.
