JP5877723B2 - Winding core - Google Patents

Description

  The present invention relates to a winding core for winding a tape, film, sheet, paper, cloth, or the like (hereinafter referred to as a belt-like product) formed into a belt shape into a roll shape, and more specifically, a member is repeatedly used. The present invention relates to a winding core that can save material and reduce costs.

Conventionally, when storing and transporting a belt-shaped product, for example, a cylindrical core as described in FIG. 1 of Cited Document 1 is used, and a roll is wound around the core around the core. It was supposed to be a body. However, although the cylindrical core as described in the cited document 1 is inexpensive, its strength is small, so it is not suitable for winding a large amount of strip-shaped products.
For example, as shown in FIG. 14, the winding core having a high strength and capable of winding a large amount of strip-shaped product has a double structure of a large tube portion 3 and a small tube portion 4, and between the large tube portion 3 and the small tube portion 4. The one provided with the rib 5 is used.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-101268

  When the rib 5 is provided between the large tube portion 3 and the small tube portion 4 as shown in FIG. 14, although the structure is expensive due to the complexity, the strength is so large that a large amount of strip-shaped product can be wound and several times. Can be used repeatedly to the extent. However, the surface may be damaged during repeated use, and this scratch may be transferred to the band-shaped product. After all, it is inevitable that the cost will increase.

  Further, it is difficult to form a core 1 having a complicated shape as shown in FIG. 14 that is long in the axial direction, and it is limited to produce a core having a length of about 20 cm at most. In order to solve this problem, the applicant has proposed, as Japanese Patent Application No. 2011-192403, a technique for forming a long core by joining several short parts together. However, in such a technique, if the dimensional accuracy or the like is low, a seam or a step is generated, so that the seam or the step may be transferred to the strip-shaped product.

  In view of such a situation, the present invention can prevent scratches, seams, steps, and the like from being transferred to the belt-like product, can be used repeatedly, and can save material and reduce costs. The purpose is to provide a wick.

The present invention has been made to achieve the above object, and a first feature of the present invention is a winding core comprising an inner core and an outer core, the inner core comprising a large tube portion and a small tube portion, Ribs are connected radially between the large tube portion and the small tube portion, and the outer core is a sleeve shape that can be externally fitted to the inner core, and can be cut by a cutter. The content is a winding core in which a groove for guiding the blade is extended from one end to the other end of the inner core .

A second feature of the present invention is that the inner core is composed of an inner core piece divided into a plurality of pieces in the length direction,
The above-described winding core in which the adjacent inner core pieces are joined is the content.

A third feature of the present invention is the above-described winding core in which the difference between the outer diameter of the inner core and the inner diameter of the outer core is 0.1 mm or less and the thickness of the outer core is 1 to 3 mm.

A fourth feature of the present invention is the above-described wound core whose outer core is transparent or translucent.

A fifth feature of the present invention is the above-described winding core having a concave-convex fitting structure composed of a concave strip and a convex strip extending in the axial direction between the inner core and the outer core.

The winding core of the present invention comprises an inner core and an outer core, and the outer core can be externally fitted to the inner core. Therefore, the surface of the inner core is damaged or a seam when joining a plurality of inner core pieces. Even when there is a step, the scratch, seam, and step are covered with the outer core, so that they are not transferred to the belt-like product.
Furthermore, when the outer core is damaged, it is sufficient to replace only the outer core, and the inner core can be reused repeatedly, which is economical. In addition, since the outer core has a sleeve shape and can be manufactured at a relatively low cost, the overall cost is low.

  If the outer core can be cut with a cutter, the unnecessary outer core can be easily removed and replaced by cutting the outer core from one end side to the other end side. Also, if a groove for guiding the cutter blade is provided on the inner core side and the cutter blade is moved along this groove to tear the outer core, the cutter blade will be cut when the outer core is cut. The inner core is less likely to be scratched. Even if there is a flaw, the position of the flaw is in the groove, and when the new outer core is fitted onto the inner core, the new outer core does not touch the flaw on the inner core, preventing external fitting. Never become.

  If the outer core is made transparent or translucent, the position of the groove can be confirmed from the outside of the outer core, and the inconvenience of accidentally tearing the outer core outside the groove and damaging the surface of the inner core can be avoided.

  If a concave / convex fitting structure consisting of concave and convex strips extending in the axial direction is provided between the inner core and the outer core, the outer diameter of the inner core is such that the outer core can be easily fitted onto the inner core. Even when the difference between the inner diameters of the outer core and the outer core is widened, it is possible to prevent the outer core from rotating around the belt-shaped product when the belt-shaped product is wound. Therefore, since it is not necessary to use too much dimensional accuracy between the inner core and the outer core, the manufacturing is easy, and the outer core is easily fitted onto the inner core.

1 and 2 show a preferred example of the winding core of the present invention. The winding core 1 includes an inner core 2 and an outer core 8, and the inner core 2 includes a large tube portion 3 and a small tube portion 4. The rib 5 is radially connected between the portion 3 and the small tube portion 4, and the outer core 8 has a sleeve shape that can be fitted onto the inner core 2.
In this example, as shown in FIG. 2, the inner core 2 is divided into two inner core pieces 2p, and when used, the two inner core pieces 2p are joined as shown in FIG. After the inner core 2 is formed, the winding core 1 is formed by fitting the outer core 8 thereon.

  The inner core 2 in the present invention is a member for supporting an outer core 8 described later and a wound belt-shaped product. The inner core 2 is composed of a large cylindrical portion 3 and a small cylindrical portion 4. In the present invention, the large cylindrical portion 3 is a cylindrical member for directly supporting the outer core 8 on its outer surface, and the small cylindrical portion 4 is disposed inside. It is a cylindrical member which functions as a bearing through which a rotating shaft is inserted in a belt-shaped product winding device. The length and diameter of the large tube portion 3 and the small tube portion 4 are not particularly limited, and may be determined as appropriate according to the properties of the strip-shaped product wound around the outer core 8.

  Ribs 5 are connected radially between the large tube portion 3 and the small tube portion 4, and the large tube portion 3 and the small tube portion 4 are reinforced. The number and shape of the ribs 5 are not particularly limited as long as the large tube portion 3 and the small tube portion 4 have sufficient strength. As shown in FIG. 3, the number of ribs 5 (eight in the example of FIG. 3) is set. The shape of the rib 5 (in the example of FIG. 4, the Y-shaped cross section) may be changed as shown in FIG.

The inner core 2 of the present invention may be formed from a single piece, or may be formed from a plurality (two in FIG. 5) of inner core pieces 2p as shown in FIG.
When the inner core 2 is formed of two or more inner core pieces 2p, the structure for joining the inner core pieces 2p is not particularly limited, and is proposed in Japanese Patent Application No. 2011-192403 filed earlier by the present applicant. All structures can be suitably used. As an example, as shown in FIG. 6, the annular convex portion 7a provided at the end of the inner core piece 2p one, fitting an annular concave portion 7 b provided at an end portion of the other of the inner core piece 2p Examples of the structure to be combined. This structure is preferable because the inner core pieces 2p can be firmly joined to each other. In the present invention, the annular convex portion 7a, are collectively structure for joining an annular concave portion 7 b, the other inner core piece 2p, and the joint 7.

In order to correspond to a wide band-shaped product, the inner core 2 can be lengthened by joining three or more inner core pieces 2p as shown in FIG.
When joining three or more inner core pieces 2p, for example, as shown in FIG. 8, between the inner core pieces 2p (end portion inner core pieces 2pe) where the joint portion 7 is provided only at one end, A predetermined number (one in the example shown in FIG. 8) of inner core pieces 2p (intermediate inner core pieces 2pm) provided with the joint portions 7 at both ends may be added.

  In the present invention, the material of the inner core 2 is not particularly limited, and is not particularly limited as long as it is a material that can obtain a strength that does not break even when the belt-shaped product is wound, but is excellent in formability and lightness. Synthetic resins are preferred. Specifically, ABS resin (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer resin), AAS resin (acrylonitrile / acrylic rubber / styrene resin), AES resin (acrylonitrile / ethylene propylene rubber / styrene resin), AS resin (acrylonitrile / styrene resin) ), PS resin (polystyrene resin), PMMA resin (polymethyl methacrylate resin), PVC resin (polyvinylidene chloride resin), MS resin (methyl methacrylate / styrene resin), PP resin (polypropylene resin), PE resin (polyethylene resin) Polyester resin such as PET resin (polyethylene terephthalate resin), polyester resin such as PBT resin (polybutylene terephthalate resin), polyamide resin, PC resin (polycarbonate resin), etc. You can use. Biodegradable plastics such as polylactic acid resin, polybutylene succinate, polyamide 11, polyhydroxybutyric acid, and biomass plastics can also be used.

  Also, any molding method can be adopted as long as the dimensional accuracy is such that the wound strip product does not wrinkle, but injection molding is preferred from the viewpoint of cost and dimensional accuracy.

  In the present invention, the outer core 8 is fitted on the inner core 2 described above. Since the outer core 8 covers the surface of the inner core 2, even if the outer core 8 has scratches or joints on the surface, there is no risk of the scratches or joints being transferred to the strip product. In addition, when the outer core 8 is damaged, the outer core 8 can be quickly removed and a new outer core 8 can be externally fitted.

  In order to allow the outer core 8 to be fitted onto the inner core 2, the difference between the outer diameter of the inner core 2 and the inner diameter of the outer core 8 (hereinafter sometimes referred to as clearance) may be adjusted. However, in the normal case, the clearance is set to about 0.2 mm so that the outer core 8 can be smoothly fitted and removed. However, if the normal clearance is applied to the winding core 1 of the present invention, the belt-shaped product is wound. When turning, the outer core 8 is brought together with the strip product. On the other hand, when the clearance is reduced to such an extent that it does not rotate, the friction force between the outer core 8 and the inner core 2 is too strong, so that the outer core 8 is fitted on the inner core 2 or the outer core 8 is replaced. It becomes difficult to pull out the outer core 8.

As one of the methods for solving such a problem, the clearance is reduced, and when the outer core 8 is replaced, the old outer core 8 is not pulled out, but is not necessary using a cutter or the like. A method of cutting and removing the outer core 8 is preferable.
At this time, the clearance may be 0.1 mm or less, preferably 0.01 to 0.08 mm, and more preferably 0.02 to 0.07 mm. If it is this extent, it is possible to externally fit the outer core 8 to the inner core 2, and the outer core 8 is not provided when the strip-shaped product is wound.

When the outer core 8 is cut off while the outer core 8 is fitted on the inner core 2, the cutter blade reaches the inner core 2 and damages the surface of the inner core 2 to shorten the life of the inner core 2, or There is also a risk that it will be difficult to fit a new outer core 8 due to scratches on the outer surface 2.
As a method of avoiding such inconvenience, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, a groove 6 extending from one end of the inner core 2 to the other end is provided on the surface of the inner core 2 to guide the cutter blade. A method of cutting the outer core 8 by moving the cutter along the groove 6 can be exemplified. In this way, it is easy to cut only the outer core 8, and even when the blade edge of the cutter scratches the inner core 2, the position of the scratch is in the groove 6, and a new outer core 8 is removed. It does not interfere with external fitting.

  The shape of the groove 6 is not particularly limited, except that it is difficult to come into contact with the blade edge of the cutter when the outer core 8 is torn. Specifically, a V-cut type as shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. A slit type as shown in FIG.

When the groove 6 is provided, the position of the groove 6 cannot be seen from the top of the outer core 8, and a portion deviated from the position of the groove 6 may be cut with a cutter to damage the surface of the inner core 2.
In order to avoid such inconvenience, it is preferable that the outer core 8 be transparent or translucent. If the outer core 8 is made transparent or semi-transparent, the position of the groove 6 can be confirmed even from the outside of the outer core 8, so that it is possible to avoid the inconvenience of accidentally tearing the outer side of the groove. Also in the example shown in FIG. 9, the outer core 8 is transparent, and the position of the groove 6 engraved on the surface of the inner core 2 can be confirmed through the outer core 8.
In this case, as long as the position of the groove 6 can be confirmed, the transmissivity and haze of the outer core 8 are not particularly limited. For example, if the surface of the inner core 2 and the inside of the groove 6 are colored with different colors, preferably complementary colors, such as coloring the groove 6 or coloring the surface of the inner core 2 red and the inside of the groove 6 green, The position of the groove 6 can be confirmed even when the light transmittance of the outer core 8 is considerably low and the haze is considerably high.

  As described above, when the outer core 8 is torn and removed, the thickness of the outer core 8 is preferably 1 to 3 mm. If it is less than 1 mm, processing tends to be difficult and cost tends to increase. When it exceeds 3 mm, it becomes difficult to tear the outer core 8, and workability tends to deteriorate.

As another example of the structure in which the outer core 8 can be easily fitted and attached and the outer core 8 does not rotate even when the belt-shaped product is wound, as shown in FIGS. and between the outer core 8, concave 9 b and a method of providing a recess-projection fitting structure 9 consisting of projections 9 a extends in the axial direction can be exemplified. In FIG. 12, a part of the outer core 8 is cut away so that the surface of the inner core 2, particularly the recessed strip 9 b, becomes clear.
In this way, by setting the clearance as usual, the outer core 8 can be easily fitted and the inner core 2 can be easily pulled out from the outer core 8 when the outer core 8 is replaced. The combined structure 9 can prevent rotation. However, concave stripes 9 b are provided on the inner core 2 side in the example shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, not but projections 9 a is provided on the outer core 8 side limitation, the inner core 2 side the projections 9 a may be provided with a concave 9 b on the outer core 8 side provided.

  As another method for both the replacement of the outer core 8 and the prevention of the rotation of the outer core 8 and the belt-shaped product, the clearance can be increased to facilitate the replacement of the outer core 8 and when the belt-shaped product is wound. Tension when a belt-shaped product is wound by frictional force between the doughnut-shaped plate member and the outer core 8 and the inner core 2 by simultaneously pressing the outer core 8 and the inner core 2 from both ends with a donut-shaped plate member. For example, it can resist stress and prevent rotation.

In the present invention, the material of the outer core 8 is not particularly limited, and all of those exemplified as the material of the inner core 2 can be exemplified as the material of the outer core 8.
Further, when the outer core 8 is made transparent or semi-transparent so that the groove 6 provided in the inner core 2 can be seen through, the PMMA resin (polymethyl methacrylate resin), PVC resin (polyvinylidene chloride resin), PP resin ( Examples thereof include polypropylene resin), PE resin (polyethylene resin), polyester resin, polyamide resin, and PC resin (polycarbonate resin).

  As described above, the winding core of the present invention is composed of an inner core and an outer core, and the outer core is configured to be fitted onto the inner core. Therefore, even when the surface of the winding core is damaged, only the outer core is replaced. As the inner core can be reused repeatedly, material savings and significant cost savings are possible.
