Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to an imprint method for imprinting a web such as a paper web by changing the repetition interval in the transport direction, and The present invention relates to a device that performs imprinting.

(Prior Art) For example, as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,856,196, it is possible to create a business form by performing predetermined conventional printing on each unit area of a web using a computer-controlled printing device. It is being done.

In this case, the material for the office form is processed into a web having unit areas for each office form, and a computer-controlled printing device performs predetermined printing on each unit area to complete the process. At the end, unit areas are sequentially cut and separated from the web to create an office form.

Office forms separated in this way may be usable as is, but certain parts may be removed from these office forms, other elements may be added, they may be bent, or they may be sealed. or other processing may be performed.

Furthermore, it may be necessary to perform a new imprint on each unit area of the web that constitutes each office format. A typical example of such a case is where the web is payroll check material issued by a company, with each employee's payee name, payment amount, and date printed by computer on each unit area of the web. Information such as withholding tax, deductions, vacation time, etc. must be imprinted with the signature of the person in charge of the company so that the beneficiary can deposit or convert the money into cash.

In such cases, an imprint roll with an imprint plate signed by the person in charge of the company attached to the back side is installed in the device, and the imprint roll is sequentially rotated for each unit area of the web to be transferred. An imprint of the signature has been made.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) In the above-mentioned prior art, the dimensions of the office form to be imprinted are not necessarily constant, and even in the case of the example salary payment check, the size increases as the amount of written information increases. It may happen.

Whenever there is a change in the dimensions of the office format, the imprint roll must be recreated to match the office format.
Each time it is assembled into a device, the device must be significantly modified, which increases manufacturing costs.

The present invention has been made in view of the current state of this type of imprint technology as described above, and its purpose is to use an imprint roll to print a web on one surface of the web in the longitudinal direction with respect to the circumference of the imprint roll. An object of the present invention is to provide an imprint method in which imprints are sequentially performed by simple steps at positions spaced apart by a predetermined distance, and an apparatus that can be used directly to carry out this imprint method.

(Means for Solving the Problem) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention uses an imprint roll having an imprint plate attached to the outer peripheral surface,
At a position on one side of the flexible web in the longitudinal direction and at a predetermined distance from the circumference of the imprint roll,
In an imprint method that performs sequential imprinting,
a bearing process in which the imprint roll is rotatably supported around its axis; and a bearing process in which the imprint roll is rotatably supported in an operating position with respect to the web, and the imprint plate rolls in a direction tangential to one surface of the web. mounting the imprint rolls in juxtaposition with respect to the treatment line of the longitudinally preceding web so as to engage, and the imprint plate rollingly engages one side of the web in a tangential direction. immediately before automatically, periodically and temporarily driving the imprint roll away from the operating position, and after the imprinting plate has rotated sufficiently past the position of rolling engagement with the web; returning the imprint roll to the operating position and rotating the imprint roll one or more times for each imprint by the imprint plate on one side of the web.

Furthermore, the cutting device with a rotary imprinter that is used directly to carry out the imprinting method of the present invention described above includes a bearing device, a mounting step, and a drive device corresponding to each process, and a bearing device, a mounting process, and a driving device that are supported by these devices. It consists of a suspended and driven imprint roll.

(Function) In the present invention, an imprint roll having an imprint plate attached to its outer peripheral surface is rotatably supported around a shaft, and this imprint roll is rotated in an operating position relative to the web. It is mounted movably and juxtaposed with respect to the treatment line of the longitudinally preceding web such that the imprinting plate is in tangential rolling engagement with one side of the web.

Then, just before the imprint plate rolls tangentially into engagement with one side of the web, the imprint roll automatically
It is periodically and temporarily driven away from the operating position. Then, after the imprinting plate has rotated sufficiently past the position of rolling engagement with the web, the imprinting roll is returned to the operative position and for each imprint by the imprinting plate on one side of the web. The imprint roll is rotated one or more times.

In this way, the material of the office form is transferred along the processing line, and the imprint roll is rotated as described above with respect to the material of the office form, so that the material of the office form is transferred in the longitudinal direction on one side of the web. On the other hand, by an imprint plate attached to the outer peripheral surface of the imprint roll at a position separated by a predetermined distance from the circumference of the imprint roll,
Imprints are applied sequentially. For example, for each unit area (check side) of the web serving as payroll check material separated by a distance twice the circumference of the imprint roll, the signature of the company manager is placed on the outer circumferential surface of the imprint roll. This can be done using an attached imprint plate.

In this case, the driving force for driving the imprint roll can be obtained from the conventional separating device, and the imprint roll of the conventional cutting device with an imprinter can be used to adjust the spacing between the imprints to that of the imprint roll. This can be done at locations on the web spaced apart by a predetermined distance with respect to the circumference. Therefore, according to the present invention, using a conventional cutting device with an imprinter, it is possible to perform correction switching to perform a long-cycle imprint operation and a short-cycle imprint operation.

(Example) Examples of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4, based on a repair process from a device that is the basis of an actual device.

First, a series of steps for modifying the imprinter-equipped cutting device 10 shown in FIG. 4 into the rotary imprinter-equipped cutting device 10' of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 will be described. In addition,
Since the imprinter-equipped cutting device 10 is a device well known to those skilled in the art, all parts are not shown in the drawings, and the description will be made with reference to these parts that are not shown.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, an extension body 12° is attached to the imprint cylinder assembly 12 for 139.7 mm of the cutting device 10 with an imprinter. In addition, the lower slitter shaft and collar retainer of the cutting device 10 with an imprinter are partially cut off by 6.4 mm (1/41 nch>), and a flat part is formed on the hub.
, a 35-tooth gear 14 for driving an idler gear 16 with a pressure angle of 20' is arranged in combination with the existing 35-tooth imprint cylinder gear on the imprinter-equipped cutting device 10.

Rotating arm 1 that is rotatable around one end and is attached with the opposing portion 24 on the other end facing the cam 22 of the idle gear 16
8 is provided to raise the imprint cylinder for 139.7 nw (51/21 nch), the imprint roll provided on this imprint cylinder, and the imprint plate on its outer peripheral surface.This rotation The imprint roll raised by arm 18 is allowed to make two revolutions for each imprint.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, a handle 28 is rotatably attached to the imprint cylinder holding device 26, and one end of the handle 28 is arranged to engage with the cylinder assembly 12. By operating and rotating this handle 28, the extension body 12° can be separated from the rotating arm 18. When the extension body 12° is separated in this way, the rotating arm 18
The cylinder assembly 12 is separated from the cam 22 and raised by the spring 20, and in this state, the cylinder assembly 12 is fixed without being driven by the rotating arm 18, thereby preventing unnecessary lifting of the imprint cylinder when the form is not imprinted. prevent.

In this way, the imprinter-equipped cutting device 10 can be modified into the rotary imprinter-equipped cutting device 10' without any modification, and in this case, 139
．． Alternative changes to the bearings and collar on the 7mm imprint cylinder extension 12 are only required to change the imprint period.

The main parts necessary for modifying the cutting device 10 with an imprinter into the cutting device 10 with a rotary imprinter are the modified 13
121 cylinder assemblies for 9.7 mm imprint, 142 gears with 35 teeth, 20 pitch, and 206 pressure angles, 1

One nchxl/41nch force roller and its various retainers, washers, screws, and nuts.

Next, we will explain in detail, first, the steps of modifying the imprinter-equipped cutting device 10 to the rotary imprinter-equipped cutting device 10', then the steps of converting from long-cycle imprint to short-cycle imprint, and finally, the short-cycle imprint. Various steps for converting periodic imprint to long period imprint will be explained.

(2) Step of assembling the 10-cycle modification assembly of the cutting device with imprinter and modifying it into the cutting device 10' with a rotary imprinter: In this explanation, the cutting device 10 with an imprinter, the cutting device 10' with a rotary imprinter, Regarding different parts,
Simple corrections can be made on-site, and replaced parts can be returned to the parts warehouse and repaired parts can be obtained from the parts warehouse.

In step 1, the imprinter-equipped cutting device 210 is separated from the power source, in step 2, the main protectors at the near end and the far end are removed, and in step 3, the following parts are installed with reference to FIG. Remove from near-end drive train.

a, belt idler 6 assembly, timing belt IC, belt pulley 5 d, belt pulley 7 e, belt pulley 5 on the tension shaft; spacer behind 7 (among these parts, a and e What was removed with
In step 4, loosen the tachometer bracket at the far end of the frame and install a special manual wheel on the shaft so that the tension drive shaft can be pulled toward the far end of the frame. Then reinstall the shaft and hold it on the proximal end with a 578 inch collar, tighten the new manual wheel to the inside of the proximal end of the frame on the shaft, install the tachometer bracket and realign the tachometer drive gear.

In step 5, remove the lower slitter shaft, install a new lower slitter shaft with a gear mounted on top, install the far end bearing from the removed lower slitter shaft to the new lower slitter shaft, and install the new lower slitter shaft. Hold using a wide 1/41nch collar. (The removed lower slitter shaft is replaced with an actual lower slitter shaft.) In step 6, the gear 14 with 35 teeth is placed on the pub of the existing imprint cylinder gear, and the teeth of the gear 14 are removed. Two 1/41nch, 20pitch x 3/16i
Hold and fix using nch screws.

In step 7, a long, heavy mounting bracket with a 70-tooth cam gear stud is installed using the screws and tapped holes that held the drive belt idler in place. In this case, the lower threaded hole is elongated for adjustment purposes, but the screw is tightened tightly to allow the bracket to be moved for adjustment. At this time, look at the opposite side of the side frame and make sure that three or four mounting screw threads extend beyond the frame. These screws are used to mount the imprint cylinder retainer, so if the screws do not extend through the frame, they will need to be replaced with longer ones.

In step 8, a 70-tooth idler gear 16 is temporarily mounted on the mounting bracket stud with the cam 22 facing outward. The mounting bracket is then rotated until proper gear engagement with the imprint cylinder is achieved. Next, remove the idle gear 16 with 70 teeth,
Fix the mounting screws, replace the gear, washer, and retainer, and re-inspect the gear mesh adjustment.

In step 9, remove the 1/41 nch x 20 thread Allen cap screw holding the loose coil spring cap towards the feed end of the device and attach it to the headless 1/41 nc
Replace with hX20 mountain stud. and 1/41nc
Screw the stud into the frame using the hx20 nut and lock washer, and remove the 2 inch ch from the frame.
Extrude and secure the stud in place with the nut.

Step 10 installs the 1/41 nch shaft collar onto the stud followed by the cylinder lift pivot arm assembly.

In this state, the contact portion 24 at the end of the rotating arm 18 is arranged so as to contact the cam 22 of the idle gear 16.

This rotating arm 18 is approximately 1-1/41 nch from the frame.
174 inches above the studs.
Tighten the channel holding collar to hold the rotating arm 18 in this gap. At this time, the rotating arm 18 is arranged so as not to touch the side of the gear assembly having 70 teeth. and the second 1/l
Install the 1nch shaft collar onto the stud and tighten to hold the pivot arm assembly on the stud in place.

Step 11 removes the top 8-32 Allen cap screw holding the cutting blade assembly in the machine and replaces it with a longer cap screw and lock nut. Then, adjust the new screw so that it protrudes 1-1/81 inch from the frame, and secure it in that position with a lock nut.

Step 12 installs the spring 20 from a new 8-32 cap screw to the screw head that fits into the upper end of the cylinder lift pivot arm assembly. This spring 20 pulls the pivot arm 18 away from the idler gear 16 when the imprint cylinder is not seated in the device.

In step 13, carefully seat the belt pulley 5.7 with the hub facing inward and so that the distance from the frame to the edge of the belt pulley 5.7 is approximately 1-3/81 nch.

In step 14, the timing belt l is reattached.

In step 15, a new belt tension idler is installed with a number of teeth of 7.
Place the shim behind the 0 gear mounting bracket and 1/
Attach with 4-20 Allen screws and carefully adjust belt tension.

In step 16, referring to FIG. 3, the imprint cylinder retainer 26 is installed and the ends of the two 10-32 screws are placed so that they protrude inside the near frame. On the outer side of the frame there are two identical threaded ends that hold large brackets for idler gears 16, but when this thread does not extend through the frame, replace the thread with one that does.

In step 17, screw the two protruding hexagonal adapters, attach the mounting plate to these hexagonal adapters using screws and washers, and attach the imprint cylinder holding device 26 to the bracket by screwing it into the corrugated shape. Attach using washers and hookers.

Then, the imprint cylinder assembly 12 is slightly raised, and the handle 28 of the imprint cylinder holding device 26 is
The imprint cylinder assembly 12 is separated from the upward drive of the rotating arm 18 by operating the handle 28 so that it can be held.

When the handle 28 is pulled, the imprint cylinder assembly 12 is disengaged from the rotating arm 18.
By preventing the imprint cylinder assembly 12 from rising and pushing the handle 28 forward, the imprint cylinder assembly 12 can be lowered into engagement with the pivot arm 18. By operating the handle 28, it is possible to prevent the imprint cylinder assembly 12 from rising unnecessarily when imprinting is not performed, without using special drive timing changing means.

(When the assembly is complete, a multi-layer sandwich of parts that drive in close contact with each other is formed. It is therefore necessary to hold these parts as closely spaced as possible according to the instructions.

Furthermore, upon completion of assembly, it is necessary to inspect that each part maintains the correct operating clearance. ) At step 18, connect the device to a power source and run it carefully and slowly so that all parts maintain the motion clearance and correct gear engagement.

In step 19, 139.7 nwm (5
Carefully attach the imprint cylinder for 1/2 inch).

In step 20, after the adjusting shoe 30 of the pivot arm 18 has been properly adjusted, the imprint cylinder is moved until the lower bearing of the pivot arm 18 is centered in the high position of the cam 22 of the 70-tooth idler gear 16. Shake it carefully.

Use a drill or an indelible display device to place a mark on the inside of the proximal frame in a position that is easily visible to the operator, at the same height as the top of the imprint cylinder bearing body, so that the operator can easily see it during assembly. Use it as a reference.

In step 21, a cam gear timing procedure is used to time the imprint cylinder with a cam gear.

In step 22, when first placing the pin collar on the imprint cylinder, make all the correct timing adjustments for the correct form bar direction (i.e. bottom pull or top pull) to ensure that the pin collar is not printed on the imprint cylinder. Place the tensioner, form or imprinted mass in the correct starting position on the tensioner, swing the form into the position to be imprinted, and place the pin collar at this point. This procedure causes the imprint to take place in the imprint window, which is located within a rotational angle of approximately 120° of the imprint cylinder.

This imprint must occur when the lower bearing of the pivot arm 18 is centered in the low position of the cam 22 of the 70-tooth idler gear 16. If this step is not performed properly for the first assembly, if the imprint location is too close to the edge of the imprint window, the imprint may be formed with part of the imprint disappearing during actual operation. It will be done. A high-rise cam is used to prevent shading during the non-imprint portion of the working cycle, but for handling tent formats etc., the paper web is gripped onto the upper slitter support shaft and placed in the imprint cylinder. a pair of Mylar (+y+a) placed on top of the paper web as it passes under
A guide body r) is provided. This mylar guide is not used in normal formatting.

When the rotary imprint cutting device 10' is operated with a fresh ink roll, the device should leave a shadow imprint in areas that do not contact the plate during non-imprint rotation. The imprint plate rotates twice beyond the ink roll,
Since imprinting is done only once, the imprint plate is heavily inked and this strong film of ink is transferred to the form and does not dry when passed through the slow rolls.

Therefore, depending on the ink, it is also possible to perform offset printing on the upper slow roll and then deposit the ink on the form. This shadowing occurs close to the imprint,
And if it is composed of small dots, the imprint is transmitted from the upper slow roll. This situation can be prevented if excess ink can be removed by rotation from the ink roll on the pad or paper.

For proper imprinting, the gap adjustment of the imprint cylinder bearing bodies is necessary as well as the adjustment of the inker gap. When making these adjustments and testing the device, mount the near bearing block on both of the components a light distance from the side frame, and raise and lower the block without blocking the frame opening. It is necessary to do so.

(2) Step of converting from long-period imprint to short-period imprint: The cutting device 10' with a rotary imprinter obtained as described above is cut into a long-period 279.4 mm (11!rlct).
l) From the imprint, a short period of 139.7 nym
(51/2 inch) The process of converting to an imprint is relatively easy. The steps in this case will be sequentially explained below.

In step 1, the ink source support rod is removed from the device.

Step 2: Carefully tilt and remove the imprint shaft as it rises out of the device over the gear end. As the gear passes over the equipment frame, slide the imprint shaft to the left so that the long extension exits the right frame.

In step 3, 2 visible at the far right end of the imprint axis
Loosen the Allen screw in the collar, move the collar and one bearing toward the large portion of the imprint axis, and tighten the collar in place.

In step 4, the imprint shaft is reinstalled in the reverse order of step 2.

In step 5, the ink source support rod is attached and the form is ready to be imprinted.

■, Process of converting from short period imprint to long period imprint: Short period 139.7 rrrra (51/21nCh
) from the imprint to the long period 279.4 mm (
111nch > The process of converting to imprint will be explained next.

In step 1, the ink source support rod is removed from the device.

In step 2, remove the imprint shaft by moving it from the device in the -E direction and carefully tilting it over the gear end. As the gear passes over the equipment frame, slide the imprint shaft to the left so that the long extension exits the right frame.

In step 3, loosen both collar set screws and
Slide the collar onto the outer end of the imprint shaft and tighten it flush with the shaft end of the imprint shaft.

In step 4, the bearing and inner collar 1 are moved □outward such that this movement moves the second collar and tightens it in that position.

In step 5, the imprint shaft is reinstalled into the apparatus, and the ink source support rod is reinstalled through the reverse procedure of step 2.

In step 6, rotate the imprint shaft using the machine's slow advance control and focus on the support at the right end of the imprint shaft. When this support is raised to the line marked on the equipment frame, align the pointer on the left support with the imprint shaft gear indicator by rotating it up until the left end of the imprint shaft is in proper alignment. . The side cover must also be installed to properly align the bearing of the pivot arm 18 with the high center of the cam gear before aligning the imprint axis pointer with the indicator.

In step 7, by performing the steps described above, a long period of 279.4 mm (111 nch >
The format font is now ready to be imprinted by imprint.

In this way, the basic imprinter-equipped cutting device 1
In the cutting device 10' with a rotary imprinter that is modified from 0 in a simple process, a long period imprint operation is performed in contrast to the short period imprint operation of the basic cutting device 10 with an imprinter.

In this case, the idle gear 16 having 70 teeth is driven by a gear train 14 that is belt-driven by a 10° motor of a cutting device with a rotary imprinter, and is disposed in contact with the cam 22 of the idle gear 16 at a contact portion 24. The rotary arm 18 that has been rotated is rotated about a fulcrum provided at one end of the rotary arm 18. An extension 12'' of the shaft of the 51/21nch imprint cylinder 12 rests on this rotating arm 18, and this extension 12'' passes through a bearing body that slides up and down in a groove on the side frame of the device. It is arranged. Therefore, the imprint cylinder assembly 12 moves smoothly as the rotating arm 18 rotates, and when the rotating arm 18 is at the high position of the cam 22, the imprint cylinder of the imprint cylinder assembly 12 moves smoothly. One end rises above one side of the web of form bar stock.

The imprint roll, which is attached to this imprint cylinder and has an imprint plate on its outer circumferential surface, rotates once in the above-mentioned raised position, and as the rotating arm 18 moves, the cam 22 moves to the lower position. When the rotary arm 18 falls, the imprint cylinder rotates in rolling contact with one surface of the web, and this rotation imprints a unit area of the web. Furthermore, the rotating arm 18
The imprint roll is raised away from one side of the web, rotates once in the raised position, and then lowered again.

In this way, in the rotary imprinter-equipped cutting device 10°, the imprinter-equipped cutting device 10 before modification is
For short-period imprints with spacing > 39.7 mm (51/21 nch
A long-period imprint with an interval >ch is performed. The operation of short-cycle imprinting by the imprinter-equipped cutting device 10 is well known to those skilled in the art, so a description of the operation will be omitted.

According to the example, as described above, the imprint method uses an imprint roll with an imprint plate attached to the outer peripheral surface, and by adding a simple process, imprinting on the web with the imprint roll is performed. The period can be doubled.

Further, by modifying the conventional cutting device 10 with an imprinter incorporating an imprint roll, it is possible to easily obtain a cutting device 10' with a rotary imprinter that doubles the period of imprinting on the web. In these cases, all the driving force can be supplied from the conventional imprint roll drive source, and the conversion from long-period imprint to short-period imprint can be easily performed.

Therefore, when the dimensions of an office form to be formed on the web are changed, there is no need to prepare new equipment; modifications based on the existing equipment can be easily carried out, which is extremely advantageous in terms of manufacturing costs. .

In addition, in the examples, an imprint method and apparatus for obtaining an imprint period twice the basic imprint period have been described, but the present invention is not limited to the examples, and generally applies to the basic imprint period. The imprint cycle can be set at a predetermined ratio to the imprint cycle.

Regarding other parts, the present invention is not limited to the description of the embodiments, but is configured in accordance with the description of the claims.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above in detail, according to the present invention, imprints can be accurately performed at a predetermined ratio of imprint cycles to the imprint cycle on the web by the underlying imprint roll. It is possible to provide an imprinting method and apparatus that can be performed simply and at low cost.
