Description

【0001】
【産業上の利用分野】
この発明は紙面の平滑性、光沢、印刷適性等を改善するために、紙に塗工カラーを塗工する際の、塗工カラーの成分調整方法及び塗工カラー表面の反射率変化測定装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
塗工(コーティング)カラーは、塗工装置により原紙に塗工された後にブレードによって余剰の塗工カラーが掻き落され、乾燥されて塗工工程を終了する。
【0003】
このとき、塗工カラー中の水分の原紙への浸透、特に過剰の浸透をいかに防止するかが重要な課題となっている。
【0004】
塗工した塗工カラー中の水分が原紙へ過剰に浸透すると、ブレードにより余剰の塗工カラーを掻き落す際に、押し付けられた塗工カラーがブレード先端の刃先からブレード裏面に廻り込んで堆積するブレードブリーディング、原紙移動方向に点状に現われる塗工不良であるスクラッチ、原紙移動方向に線状に現われる塗工不良であるストリーク等が発生し、又原紙が過剰水分によって脆弱になることによる紙切れ、繊維の膨脹による表面の荒れ、等の品質上の欠陥や操業上のトラブルを生じさせるという問題点があった。従って、塗工カラー中の水分の原紙への浸透予め塗工カラー毎に測定しておくことが当然必要である。
【0005】
又、塗布した塗工カラーの高せん断速度条件下における粘度が高いと余剰の塗工カラーを掻き落すためのブレードが押し上げられてしまい、塗工カラーの塗工量の調整ができないという問題点がある。更に、ブレードの押圧力を過大にするとスクラッチ等が発生してしまうという問題点がある。
【0006】
このため、ブレードは、ブレードブリーディング等が発生しない範囲でできるだけ均一な押付圧力で塗工カラー面に押付けて安定して余剰塗工カラーを掻き落すと共に操業性の改善を図る必要がある。
【0007】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、従来は、上記塗工カラー中の水分の原紙への浸透を測定する手段、特に実際の塗工工程と同様の条件で塗工カラー中の水分の原紙への浸透を測定する手段がなかった。
【0008】
従って、塗工ラインにおいて実際に使用してブレードブリーディングやスクラッチ等が発生して、原紙を無駄にしたりするという問題点があった。
【0009】
この発明は上記従来の問題点に鑑みてなされたものであって、小型且つ安価な装置で塗工カラー中の水分の原紙への浸透を検出して、塗工カラーの成分を最適にすることができるようにした塗工カラーの成分調整方法及び塗工カラー表面の反射率変化測定装置を提供することを目的とする。
【0012】
【課題を解決するための手段】
請求項1の発明は、円筒状にセットされた原紙を、円筒の軸線廻りに回転させ、且つ、原紙の円筒軸方向の長さの大きくとも1/4の塗り幅の塗布手段を、前記軸線と平行に円筒表面に沿って、隣接する塗布範囲が軸線方向に重ならないように移動しつつ、塗工カラーを、原紙に螺旋状に塗布し、該塗布手段の後側で、これと同期して移動するブレードで余剰の塗工カラーを掻き落した後に、円筒軸方向定位値で、塗工カラー面に光を投射し、且つ、その反射光を光センサーにより受光して反射率の経時変化に基づく光センサー出力の変化を検出し、該検出値に基づき、塗工開始から光センサー出力が極小値W 2 になるまでの時間W 1 を、水分の原紙への浸み込み終了までの時間として検出し、前記時間W 1 が一定の場合、極小値の大/小に応じて、原紙への水分の浸透が過小/過大として塗工カラーの成分を変更することを特徴とする塗工カラーの成分調整方法により上記目的を達成するものである。
【0014】
請求項2の発明は、厚紙を円筒状に保持し、且つ、その中心軸廻りに、速度調節自在に回転される原紙保持筒と、この原紙保持筒の長さの、大きくとも1/4の塗り幅で、該原紙保持筒に支持された前記原紙の円筒状表面に沿って軸方向に移動自在とされた塗工装置と、この塗工装置と同期して移動され、且つ、塗工装置の直後位置で、塗布された塗工カラーの余剰分を掻き落すブレードと、前記原紙の円筒状表面に沿った定位置に設けられ、前記ブレードにより余剰の塗工カラーが掻き落された後の塗工カラー表面に光を投射する光源、該投射光の塗工カラー表面による反射光を受光する光センサーを備えた反射光検出装置と、前記光センサーの出力変化に基づき、前記塗工カラー表面の光反射率の時間的変化を検出する反射率検出手段と、を有してなる塗工カラー表面の反射率変化測定装置により上記目的を達成するものである。
【0023】
【作用及び効果】
請求項1の発明によれば、塗布された塗工カラーからの反射光の変化により、実際の塗工工程と同様の条件で塗工カラー中の水分の、原紙への浸透検出し、塗工カラーの成分を最適に調整することができる。
【0025】
請求項3の発明によれば、実際の塗工工程と同様の条件で塗工カラー中の水分の原紙への浸透に基づく表面の反射率変化を測定することができる。
【0034】
【実施例】
以下本発明の実施例を図面を参照して説明する。
【0035】
図1、図2に示されるように、この実施例に係る塗工カラー表面の反射率変化測定装置10は、原紙12を円筒状に保持し、且つ、中心軸14A周りに、速度調節自在に回転される原紙保持筒14と、この原紙保持筒14の長さの約1/10の塗り幅で、該原紙保持筒14に支持された前記原紙12の円筒状表面に沿って軸方向に移動自在とされ、円筒状の原紙12に螺旋状に塗工カラーを塗布する塗工ヘッド16と、この塗工ヘッド16に取付けられ、且つ、塗工ヘッド16の塗工位置で塗布された塗工カラーの余剰分を掻き落とすブレード18と、前記原紙12の円筒状表面に沿った定位置に設けられ、前記ブレード18により余剰の塗工カラーが掻き落とされた後の塗工カラー表面に光を投射する光源20A、該投射光の塗工カラー表面による反射光を受光する光センサ20Bを備えた反射光検出装置20と、前記光センサ20Bの出力に基づき、前記塗工カラー表面の光反射率の時間的変化を検出する反射率検出手段22と、を備えて構成されている。
【0036】
前記反射率検出手段22は制御装置24の一部を構成している。この制御装置24には、図1に示されるように、前記ブレード18に取り付けられた歪ゲージ26、円筒状の原紙12表面の温度を測定する放射温度センサ28、光センサからなり、原紙保持筒14の回転速度を検出する回転計30、原紙保持筒14を囲むハウジング10A内の湿度を検出する湿度センサ32、ハウジング10A内の温度を検出する温度センサ34、及び、塗工ヘッド16内の塗工カラーの温度を検出する塗工カラー温度センサ38、の各々からの出力信号が入力するようにされている。
【0037】
又、制御装置24は、入力装置40により制御され、且つ前記反射率検出手段22、歪ゲージ26、各センサからの信号を処理した結果を、表示装置42又はプリンタ44に表示するようになっている。
【0038】
前記塗工ヘッド16は、図3に拡大して示されるように、前記ブレード18を先端が斜下向きの姿勢で保持すると共に、該ブレード18の上側の、前記原紙保持筒14に対向する側が開口36Aとされた塗工カラー容器36Bと、前記開口36Aの両側に配置され、前記原紙保持筒14の円弧に沿う凹円弧状のサイドシール部36Cと、一対のエアーシリンダ36Dにより、前記開口36Aの内側位置で上下方向に駆動され、下方位置で該開口36Aを閉じる(図3では開いている)シャッター36Eと、前記開口36Aの上端位置で、前記原紙保持筒14の表面に接近して僅かな隙間を形成し、ここに圧力空気流を通すようにされたエアーデフレクタ36Fと、前記塗工カラー容器36B内に塗工カラーを注入する際に開閉される蓋36Gと、を備えて構成されている。塗工カラー容器36B内には圧力空気源(図示省略)から圧力空気が供給されるようになっている。
【0039】
又、塗工ヘッド16全体はガイドレール46に支持され、原紙保持筒14に沿ってエアーシリンダ(図示省略)によって往復動できるようにされ、更に、自重によって前記ブレード18及びサイドシール部36Cが、原紙保持筒14に支持された原紙12に押し付けられるようになっている。
【0040】
塗工カラーを塗布するときは、塗工カラー容器36B内に塗工カラーを注入し、前記ブレード18、サイドシール部36Cを原紙12に押付けられた状態で、エアーシリンダ36Dによりシャッター36Eを開き、圧力空気を供給する。図2の符号21は反射光検出装置20を支持するバーを示す。
【0041】
次に前記塗工カラー表面の反射率変化測定装置10により塗工カラーの特性を測定する場合について説明する。
【0042】
まず、原紙12を原紙保持筒14に筒状に巻き付けて固定し、塗工ヘッド16における塗工カラー容器36B内に所定の塗工カラーを注入し、原紙12の端部位置で、ガイドレール46上で、上下又は回転方向に自由状態とすると、塗工ヘッド16全体の自重により、ブレード18及びサイドシール部36Cが、原料保持筒14に巻き付けた原紙12に押し付けられる。
【0043】
次にシャッター36Eを開き、且つ、塗工カラー容器36B内を圧力空気で加圧しつつ塗工ヘッド16全体をガイドレール46に沿って一方向に移動させる。
【0044】
このとき、原紙保持筒14は、その周速が実際のラインにおける塗布速度に一致する速度でブレード18の先端方向に回転させる。又、塗布装置16のガイドレール46に沿う移動速度は、塗り幅が重ならないように設定する。
【0045】
このようにすると、塗工カラー容器36内の塗工カラーが図1、図2に示されるように、原紙12に螺旋状に塗布されることになる。
【0046】
なお、原紙12が高速で、図において反時計方向に回転すると、原紙12の移動により上から下へ空気流が生じ、これが塗工カラーに泡状に混ざり、塗りむらが発生するが、この実施例では、加圧空気によってエアーデフレクタ36Fと原紙12の隙間に上向きに生じる空気流が上方からの空気流を遮断し、塗工カラー中に泡が発生することがない。
【0047】
塗工カラーが塗布された後の原紙12に対しては、ブレード18から略1/2回転の位置に設けられている反射光検出装置20の光源20Aからの検出光が投射され、原紙12に塗布された塗工カラー面で反射された光が光センサ20Bに入射して、その出力信号が反射率検出手段22に送られる。
【0048】
反射率検出手段22においては、光センサ20Bの出力値から塗工カラーの反射率を算出し、制御装置24において、これを、例えば図4に示されるように光センサ20Bの出力値(電圧)Wを縦軸に、経過時間を横軸にして前記表示装置42に出力する。又、必要であれば、プリンタ44により図4のグラフを出力する。
【0049】
ここで、図4において符号Sはブレード18における前記歪ゲージ26の出力信号である電圧値、PTは放射温度センサ28の出力信号、即ち原紙平均温度、HTは温度センサ34によるハウジング内温度をそれぞれ示す。なお、ハウジング内湿度、塗工カラー温度はほぼ一定であるので塗工カラー条件の一部として表示される。
【0050】
前記図4の光センサ出力である電圧値Wのうち、符号W1 で示される範囲は塗工開始から塗工カラー中の水分の原紙12への浸み込み終了まで、極小値W2 は原紙12の塗工動的保水力極小値、符号W3 は塗工カラーの乾燥過程をそれぞれ示す。
【0051】
一般に、W1 が一定のときW2 が小さいほど塗工カラーの水分が原紙12に浸透する量は大きくなる
【0052】
一般に、W2 が一定のときw1が大きいほど塗工カラーの水分が原紙12に浸透する量は大きくなる
【0053】
塗工開始から極小値W2 までの間は塗工カラーの水分が原紙12に浸透していき、原紙12の表面に残った塗工カラー中の水分が減少することにより、光の反射率が低下していく。
【0054】
これに対して、極小値W2 以降は、原紙12に塗布された塗工カラーが徐々に乾燥することによって光の反射率が増大するため、乾燥過程W3 における電圧値Wは漸増していく。
【0055】
W1 が一定の場合、前記電圧値Wにおける極小値W2 が過小のときは、原紙12への水分の浸透が過大であるので、塗工カラーの成分を変更する必要がある。W2 が一定の場合W1 が過大のときは、原紙12への水分の浸透が過大であるので、塗工カラーの成分を変更する必要がある。
【0056】
ここにおいて、光センサ20Bは、斜めに塗工された塗工カラーを定位置で検出するので、原紙12が回転すると、塗工カラー部分(暗)と白紙部分(明)を交互に、しかも高速でセンシングすることになり、その光センサ出力が大きく周期的に変化する。このため、出力電圧値Wは暗と明の平均値になるが、信号処理により暗の部分のみをグラフ表示すればより正確になる。
【0057】
前記歪ゲージ出力Sは、図において左端が塗工開始、右端が塗工終了を示す。又、歪ゲージ出力Sは塗布された塗工カラーの流動性が高い場合は、その微小振幅の上下幅が少ないことが分かる。この微小振幅の上下幅が小さいにも拘らず、塗工面でスクラッチ等が発生した場合は、その原因の1つとして、ブレード押付圧力が過大であることが分かる。歪ゲージ出力Sの振幅の上下幅が大きい場合は、塗工カラーの成分を、流動性が高くなるように変更する必要がある。
【0058】
又、原紙平均温度PTは、塗工カラー塗布直後から、乾燥用ランプによる加熱によって直線的に増大することが分かる。
【0059】
なお、上記実施例において、反射光検出装置20は1ヶ所のみ設けられているが、本発明はこれに限定されるものでなく、2ヶ所において反射光を検出したり、あるいは3ヶ所以上で反射光を検出するようにしてもよい。
【0060】
更に、図2における塗工ヘッド16は、その塗り幅が実施例に限定されるものでなく、原紙保持筒14の長さの大きくても1/4程度であれば良い。
【0061】
又、前記実施例においてブレード18には歪ゲージ26が設けられ、ブレードの押付圧力を検出するようにしているが、この押付圧力検出手段は歪ゲージに限定されるものでなく、他の検出手段、例えば光によりブレードの歪又は曲げを検出するもの等であっても良い。
【0062】
次に上記のような塗工カラー反射率変化測定装置を実際の紙の塗工工程に利用する場合につき説明する。
【0063】
図5に示されるように、帯状の原紙48は原紙ロール(図示省略)から巻き出され、バッキングロール50に巻き掛けられ、通過する際に、アプリケータロール52によって、容器54内の塗工カラーが塗工され、その直後にブレード56によって塗工カラーの余剰分が掻き落とされる。
【0064】
前記図2における反射光検出装置20と同様の反射光検出装置58がブレード56の下流側に複数配置される。この反射光検出装置58を設ける位置は、例えば図5に示すように、原紙の移動方向に沿って配置すると良い。
【0065】
又、前記ブレード56には、前記歪ゲージ26と同様の歪ゲージ60を取り付けて、ブレード56による押付圧力を検出する。
【0066】
前記反射光検出装置58及び歪ゲージ60の出力信号は、制御装置62に入力され、制御装置62は、これらの入力信号に基づいて、塗工カラー条件を変更してフィードバック制御するようにされている。
【0067】
例えば、反射光検出装置58によって検出された信号の極小値が過小で、且つ歪ゲージ60によって検出されるブレード押付力の微小変動の上下幅が過大の場合は、塗工カラー中の水分が原紙に浸透し過ぎるので、直ちに塗工カラー容器54に浸透を抑制する保水剤を注入する必要がある。

At this time, the base paper holding cylinder 14 is rotated in the tip direction of the blade 18 at a speed whose peripheral speed matches the coating speed in the actual line. The moving speed of the coating device 16 along the guide rail 46 is set so that the coating widths do not overlap.
[0045]
If it does in this way, the coating color in the coating color container 36 will be apply | coated to the base paper 12 spirally, as FIG. 1, FIG. 2 shows.
[0046]
When the base paper 12 is rotated at a high speed and counterclockwise in the figure, an air flow is generated from the top to the bottom due to the movement of the base paper 12, and this is mixed into the coating color in the form of bubbles and uneven coating occurs. In the example, the air flow generated upward in the gap between the air deflector 36F and the base paper 12 by the pressurized air blocks the air flow from above, and bubbles are not generated in the coating collar.
[0047]
Detection light from the light source 20 </ b> A of the reflected light detection device 20 provided at a position of approximately 1/2 rotation from the blade 18 is projected onto the base paper 12 after the coating color is applied, and is applied to the base paper 12. The light reflected by the applied coating color surface enters the optical sensor 20B, and the output signal is sent to the reflectance detection means 22.
[0048]
In the reflectance detection means 22, the reflectance of the coating color is calculated from the output value of the optical sensor 20B, and in the control device 24, this is output as an output value (voltage) of the optical sensor 20B, for example, as shown in FIG. W is output to the display device 42 with the vertical axis representing the elapsed time and the horizontal axis representing elapsed time. If necessary, the printer 44 outputs the graph of FIG.
[0049]
Here, in FIG. 4, symbol S is a voltage value that is an output signal of the strain gauge 26 in the blade 18, PT is an output signal of the radiation temperature sensor 28, that is, an average temperature of the raw paper, and HT is a temperature inside the housing by the temperature sensor 34. Show. Since the humidity in the housing and the coating color temperature are substantially constant, they are displayed as part of the coating color condition.
[0050]
In the voltage value W which is the optical sensor output of FIG. 4, the range indicated by the symbol W1 is the minimum value W2 of the base paper 12 from the start of coating to the end of the penetration of moisture in the coating color into the base paper 12. The coating dynamic water retention minimum value, symbol W3, indicates the drying process of the coating color.
[0051]
In general, when W1 is constant, the smaller the W2 is, the greater the amount of moisture in the coating color that penetrates the base paper 12 is .
[0052]
In general, when W2 is constant, the greater the amount of w1, the greater the amount of moisture in the coating color that penetrates the base paper 12 .
[0053]
From the start of coating to the minimum value W2, the moisture of the coating color penetrates into the base paper 12, and the reflectance in the light decreases due to the reduction of the water in the coating color remaining on the surface of the base paper 12. I will do it.
[0054]
On the other hand, after the minimum value W2, the reflectance of light increases as the coating color applied to the base paper 12 is gradually dried, so that the voltage value W in the drying process W3 gradually increases.
[0055]
When W1 is constant, when the minimum value W2 in the voltage value W is too small, the penetration of moisture into the base paper 12 is excessive, so that the coating color component needs to be changed. When W2 is constant and W1 is excessive, the penetration of moisture into the base paper 12 is excessive, so that it is necessary to change the component of the coating color.
[0056]
Here, the optical sensor 20B detects the coating color applied obliquely at a fixed position. Therefore, when the base paper 12 rotates, the coating color portion (dark) and the white paper portion (bright) alternately and at high speed. The optical sensor output changes greatly and periodically. For this reason, the output voltage value W becomes an average value of dark and bright, but it becomes more accurate if only the dark part is displayed in a graph by signal processing.
[0057]
The left end of the strain gauge output S in the figure indicates the start of coating, and the right end indicates the end of coating. It can also be seen that the strain gauge output S has a small vertical width of the minute amplitude when the applied coating color has high fluidity. In spite of the small vertical width of the minute amplitude, when scratches or the like are generated on the coating surface, it is understood that the blade pressing pressure is excessive as one of the causes. When the vertical width of the amplitude of the strain gauge output S is large, it is necessary to change the component of the coating color so that the fluidity becomes high.
[0058]
It can also be seen that the base paper average temperature PT increases linearly by heating with a drying lamp immediately after the coating color is applied.
[0059]
In the above embodiment, only one reflected light detection device 20 is provided. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the reflected light is detected at two locations or reflected at three or more locations. You may make it detect light.
[0060]
Further, the coating width of the coating head 16 in FIG. 2 is not limited to the embodiment, and it may be about 1/4 even if the length of the base paper holding cylinder 14 is large.
[0061]
In the above embodiment, the blade 18 is provided with a strain gauge 26 to detect the pressing pressure of the blade. However, the pressing pressure detecting means is not limited to the strain gauge, and other detecting means. For example, it may be one that detects distortion or bending of the blade by light.
[0062]
Next, the case where the coating color reflectance change measuring apparatus as described above is used in an actual paper coating process will be described.
[0063]
As shown in FIG. 5, the strip-shaped base paper 48 is unwound from a base paper roll (not shown), wound around a backing roll 50, and passes through the coating color in the container 54 by the applicator roll 52. Immediately thereafter, the blade 56 scrapes off the excess of the coating color.
[0064]
A plurality of reflected light detection devices 58 similar to the reflected light detection device 20 in FIG. 2 are arranged on the downstream side of the blade 56. The position where the reflected light detection device 58 is provided may be arranged along the moving direction of the base paper as shown in FIG. 5, for example.
[0065]
Further, a strain gauge 60 similar to the strain gauge 26 is attached to the blade 56, and the pressing pressure by the blade 56 is detected.
[0066]
Output signals of the reflected light detection device 58 and the strain gauge 60 are input to the control device 62, and the control device 62 is configured to perform feedback control by changing the coating color condition based on these input signals. Yes.
[0067]
For example, when the minimum value of the signal detected by the reflected light detection device 58 is too small and the vertical width of the minute fluctuation of the blade pressing force detected by the strain gauge 60 is too large, the moisture in the coating color is the base paper. Therefore , it is necessary to immediately inject a water retaining agent that suppresses the penetration into the coating color container 54.
