[Industrial applications]

 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a coloring device, and more particularly, to a coloring device that can automatically perform arbitrary partial coloring on a traveling object to be colored.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In the field of fishing line, in order to enable accurate shelving to be carried out at hand, a fishing line colored in multiple colors at certain intervals is put on the market.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 Conventionally, the fixed length coloring of fishing line is performed manually, but such a method requires a lot of labor. The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a coloring device having a simple structure and capable of automatically performing partial coloring on a traveling object to be colored. .

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 That is, the gist of the present invention is to provide a coloring bath (1) and a paint roller (3) rotatably arranged at a position where a part of the surface can come into contact with the coloring agent contained in the coloring bath. ) And are freely movable up and down by a lifting mechanism (4).

[0005]

[Action]

 The paint roller (3) constantly holds an appropriate amount of the coloring agent contained in the coloring bath (1) on its surface by rotation. The elevating mechanism (4) raises and lowers the paint roller (3) to intermittently bring the surface of the paint roller (3) into contact with the running colored body (16) from below.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is an explanatory view showing an example of a coloring device of the present invention. The coloring apparatus of the present invention comprises a coloring bath (1) and a paint roller (3) placed on a horizontal support member (5) supported by an elevating mechanism (4).

The coloring bath (1) is composed of a gutter-shaped container having an open upper part, and is placed on a horizontal support member (5) via a fixing member (6). The coloring bath (1) contains a coloring agent in which a dye, a pigment or the like is dissolved or dispersed in a suitable medium. Then, the colorant is automatically replenished by the colorant quantitative supply line (7), and the colorant in the color bath (1) is always maintained at a constant level.

The paint roller (3) has a surface composed of a material capable of holding a colorant, for example, a porous material such as nonwoven fabric or soft urethane foam. The paint roller (3) is located at the upper opening of the coloring bath (1) so that a part of the surface can come into contact with the coloring agent contained therein. The paint roller (3) is rotatable by the motor (2). In the figure, (8) is a roller shaft, (9) is a bearing, (10) is a bearing cover, (11) is a transmission, (12) is a coupling, and (13) is a motor power supply.

The motor (2), which is the source of rotational power, may be a hydraulic or pneumatic motor, a turbine, etc., in addition to the electric motor as shown. Further, the motor (2) of this embodiment is directly connected to the roller shaft (8) via the transmission (11) and is operated by the elevating mechanism (4) together with the coloring bath (1), the paint roller (3) and the like. Raised and lowered. Such direct drive of the roller is preferable in terms of downsizing of the device, but a flexible shaft or a unit is used for transmitting rotational power between the rotary shaft of the motor (2) and the roller shaft (8). The rotational power source can be fixed outside by using a belt directly connected with a niversal joint or a sprocket.

As the elevating mechanism (4), a screw mechanism, a rack mechanism, a cam mechanism, a hydraulic mechanism, a pneumatic mechanism, or various elevating mechanisms that appropriately use a mechanism that drives a rotary shaft with a servo motor and a timing belt. The mechanism can be arbitrarily adopted. The horizontal support member (5) is movable up and down by the lifting mechanism (4). In the illustrated example, an L-shaped horizontal support member (5) is used, and its vertical portion (5a) is guided. It is slidably supported by (14), and the vertical part (5a) is engaged with the elevating mechanism (4) so that it can be moved up and down with respect to the guide (14). The elevating mechanism (4) is fixed to the guide (14).

The vertical portion (5a) of the L-shaped horizontal support member (5) and the guide (14) are provided in the grooves (14a) and (14b) provided on the left and right sides of the guide, respectively. It is slidably supported by fitting projections (not shown) fixed to the left and right sides of the. The elevation height of the horizontal support member (5) by the elevating mechanism (4) can be controlled by the positioning mechanism (15), and as the positioning mechanism (15), for example, a sensor such as a limit switch is used. You can

In the coloring device of the present invention, a fishing line (16) is run in a direction crossing the paint roller (3), for example, and a lifting mechanism (4) is driven to raise a horizontal support member (5). By lowering, the surface of the paint roller (3) is intermittently brought into contact with the fishing line (16). As a result, partial coloring of the fishing line (16) is automatically performed. Coloring of the fishing line (16) for each fixed length is controlled by the contact time of the paint roller (3) with the fishing line (16), and such contact time is obtained by using, for example, a conventionally known timer control device. It can be performed by controlling the lifting interval of the lifting mechanism (4).

[0013] Furthermore, for the yarn used in the body striking device, for example, various kinds of pigments as shown in the following Table 1 are used, and are colored in multiple colors at constant lengths. An example of a multicolor pattern formed on a fishing line is that a blue portion of 90 cm and a non-colored portion of 10 cm are alternately and repeatedly formed 10 times for each color, and then the color is changed and 10 times are repeated. It is colored in order. The colors other than black in Table 1 are the pattern colors that can be switched cyclically. Black is the 5th mark in the 10th repeating unit as a 5m mark. Used.

In the multicolor coloring as described above, a plurality of coloring devices arranged immediately below the running colored body (16) are arranged at predetermined intervals in the running direction of the colored body (16). Can be easily performed by arranging them in parallel with each other and appropriately controlling the lifting timing of the lifting mechanism (4) in each coloring device. In this case, the above-mentioned raising / lowering timing has parameters such as the pattern pattern applied to the object to be colored (16), the traveling speed of the object to be colored (16), the relative position and diameter of the paint roller (3), and the like. It is preferable to control with a sequence controller equipped with (CPU). The coloring device of the present invention is a coloring device capable of automatically partially coloring a traveling object to be colored. Therefore, the object to be colored is not limited to a thread, and may be a film or the like. Further, the colorant is not limited to the pigment and may be a dye or the like.

[0016]

[Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention described above, a coloring device having a simple structure and capable of automatically partially coloring a traveling object to be colored is provided. The value is remarkable.
