Detailed Description of the Invention (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to an automatic material exchange connection means and a winder device equipped with the means. The present invention relates to an automatic material exchange connection means and a winding machine device equipped with the automatic exchange connection means.More specifically, the present invention relates to winding materials for electrolytic capacitors such as electrolytic foil and paper separators, raw films, vapor deposited films, etc. Rolling materials and raw aluminum foil for film capacitors, such as
The present invention also relates to automatic exchange connection means for other winding material and to a winder device equipped with said means.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, in a winder device for winding material, the exchange and connection of the winding material has been mainly performed manually.

In recent years, as the speed of winding machines has increased, the frequency of replacing the winding material has increased, so it has been necessary to reduce the number of winding machines per person. Therefore, in order to operate the same number of winding machines as in the past, a large number of additional personnel are required.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) The purpose of the present invention is to solve such problems by
The object of the present invention is to provide means for automatically changing and connecting rotating materials, and a winder device equipped with such means.

(Means for Solving the Problems) As a result of intensive research to achieve this objective, the inventor of the present application has invented the automatic material exchange connection means of the present invention and a winding machine device equipped with the means.

Therefore, the automatic material exchange connection means of the present invention includes a sensor that outputs an output according to a certain reference amount of the rolled material held in the rolled material hanging scroll, and an automatic connection means for the cough rolled material hanging scroll by the sensor. It consists of a cutting unit, a material exchange unit, and a pasting unit that are installed close to each other or separated and retracted and sequentially move and operate. This is an automatic material exchange and connection means that replaces the rolled material and adhesively connects it to the rolled material web on the line.

This will be specifically explained with reference to the drawings.

The automatic material exchange connection means of the present invention consists of a cutting unit C1 which operates in response to a sensor S, a material exchange unit E, and a pasting unit P, and operates as shown in FIG. That is, 1) When the amount of material to be wound on the shaft A decreases below the standard, the sensor S outputs an output and the winding action of the winding machine body is stopped.

2) Cutting unit C moves in the X direction and cuts the material while holding the winding line.

3) The material exchange unit E moves in the (a) direction of X, the hook grasps the material hanging on the shaft A, and returns to the direction of Y.

Φ) Moves in the Z direction together with the pasting unit P.

(C) The pre-hanger moves further in the X direction and hangs the gripped material on the shaft.

(d) Move in the Y direction and return slightly in the direction along with the pasting unit P.

(@1) Move in the X direction, grab the new material that is pre-hung on axis C, and return to the Y direction.

(f) It moves in the direction of U together with the sticking unit P and returns to its original position.

[During this process, the adhesive tape is pasted onto the new material using the pasting unit P.]

(Move in the direction of 1gX and hang the gripped material on axis A.
Transfer to.

(h) Return to the Y direction.

[At the same time, the cutting unit C connects the new material to the winding line. ]

4) The cutting unit C returns to the Y direction and resumes winding.

As shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, the structure and operation of the cutting unit (C) is such that the material 1 set on the shaft A is wound up through the guide roller 7, and When the amount decreases to the following amount and reaches the state of 10, the sensor S outputs an output and the operation of the winding machine is stopped.

The clamp table 8 is then moved upwardly through the intermediate between the stationary clamp roller 4 and the movable clamp roller 5, and the web W of wound material is moved from lO to lO as shown in FIG.
The clamper 3 moves to clamp the material web W while it is tensioned by the fixed clamp roller 4, clamp stand 8, and movable clamp roller 5 and reaches the guide roller 7, and the cutter 2 moves forward to cut the web W. do.

Next, as shown in FIG. 4, the movable clamp roller 5 moves toward the fixed clamp roller 4 and re-clamps the material web W between both rollers. The exchange is done and the new material is on axis A.
is grasped by.

Furthermore, the applicator roller 6 is moved to connect the material web W of the line to the new material in the state shown in FIG. At that time, the clamper 3 and clamp stand 8 return to their original positions and prepare for the next round.

Finally, the pasting roller 6 is the second W! The connection will be completed when the state changes to J.

As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the structure and operation of the adhesion unit P is such that the double-sided adhesive tape 11 that has passed through the clamp rollers 16 and 17 is transferred to the one-sided cover tape by the folding roller 18 for peeling off the cover tape. The tape 13 is peeled off and sent 12 first, and then the cover tape 14 on the other side is peeled off by a folding roller 19 for peeling off the cover tape. In this state 15, the entire unit is moved in the X direction and the double-sided adhesive tape is applied to the tip of the wound material. While manually handling the cover tapes 13 and 14, move the entire unit in the 2 direction, move the cutter 20 in the X and Y directions, cut the tape, and return the entire unit in the U and Y directions to complete the process. .

Further, the winding machine device of the present invention includes a winding machine body that is stopped and activated by a sensor that outputs an output according to a certain reference amount of rolled material held by a scroll for rolling material, and the above-mentioned automatic material exchange connection means. A winding machine device comprising a robot transport means that transports and grips the rolled material stored in the storf car onto a hanging scroll, and transports the empty core at the proboscis after winding to an empty core stocker and discards it. be.

The drawings will be specifically explained below.

FIGS. 8 and 9 are diagrams showing an outline of a winding machine device equipped with an automatic material exchange connection means. FIG. 9 is a view of FIG. 8 viewed from the direction of the arrow.

In the figure, the roll material (e.g., electrodes + foil) 102 stored in the stonker 103 is transferred to the robot transport means 10.
1 and held by a hanging scroll (electrode+foil hanging scroll) 112. The rolled material 102 held by the hanging scroll 112 is transferred to another hanging scroll 11 via the automatic material exchange connection means 100.
1.113.114.115.116 The empty core that has been wound up by the winding means 117 together with other III-material materials (for example, electrodes and separators) is transported by the robot. The means 101 transports the cores to an empty core stocker 104 and discards them.
