Description

The present invention continuously unwinds and connects a thin plate material that is unwound from one unwinding reel and subsequently processed to a thin plate material that has been pre-processed in a continuous processing facility such as heat treatment from the other unwinding reel. The present invention relates to a thin plate material connecting device and a method for unwinding the same. Here, the thin plate material refers to, for example, a titanium foil or a stainless steel foil.

In the automatic thin plate material passing device described in Patent Literature 1, in order to automatically introduce the tip of the foil material from the rewind coil to the rolling mill work roll in the rolling machine for ultra thin foil material such as aluminum. , Suction the tip of the foil material with a plate nose with a pinch roll, advance the nose with a buggy running on the guide rail, and when the buggy reaches the forward limit, pinch roll on the driving bridle roll And the foil material is fed into the work roll by the rotation of these rolls. In this automatic plate passing device, a guide plate with an air blow function is installed at the lower part of the pass line.

However, in the automatic sheet feeding device described in Patent Document 1, since the buggy is installed above the foil material, it is generated by the rubbish adhering to the buggy or sliding between the buggy and the guide rail as the buggy advances. Foreign matter from the moving traveling mechanism such as dust falls on the foil material, the quality of the foil material is deteriorated due to a decrease in the cleanliness, and the foreign material is caught in various rolls provided in the automatic sheet feeding device, so that the roll is damaged. There is a problem that there is a risk of entering. In particular, in recent years, foil materials such as stainless steel and copper are often used in electronic devices, and thus ensuring cleanliness is an essential condition.
Further, in the automatic sheet passing device, since the ultrathin foil material is sent out by the pinch force between the pinch roll and the bridle roll and the roll rotation, there is also a problem that the ultrathin foil material thinner than a certain plate thickness is squeezed and deformed.

Winding is performed by the wound winding drum, and the end portion of the excess thin plate material is further crossed in the width direction by a clamp device disposed at an intermediate position between the first winding reel and the second winding reel. A first step of clamping and holding,
A second step of connecting a terminal portion of the excess thin plate material clamped by the clamping device to an unwinding start end portion of the thin plate material of the thin plate material coil newly attached to the first unwinding reel;
A third state in which the clamping state of the clamping device is released, the winding drum is further wound, and the unwinding start end portion of the thin plate material wound around the first unwinding reel is pulled out to the front side position of the welding machine. Process,
And a fourth step of welding the unwinding start end portion of the first unwinding reel and the end portion of the thin plate member wound on the second unwinding reel by the welding machine. A method for unwinding thin sheet materials. 4. The method of unwinding a thin plate material according to claim 3, wherein the thin plate material to be clamped by the clamping device is clamped in a state where the tail end of the thin plate material is wound around the first unwinding reel, and thereafter A method for unwinding a thin plate material, characterized in that the thin plate material is cut immediately after the clamp portion to form an end portion of an excessive thin plate material in the second step.
