Definitions

  • Installations of the first-mentioned type can be completely or partly equipped with transport chains, the carriages being moved manually over installation parts not provided with such chains.
  • the equipment with transport chains is relatively complicated.
  • Sliding platforms, optionally also turntables, must be provided with separate transport chains and corresponding drives, so that it is precisely the automatic loading of the reel stands, which is particularly desirable since the environment of the reel stands constitutes a danger area, which requires a relatively high degree of complexity.
  • the costs for the drives and controls play a considerable role, especially if a relatively large number of carriages is used.
  • a vehicle according to the precharacterizing clause of claim 9 is disclosed in DE-A-23 34 141. It serves for moving carriages carrying material to be distilled in a distillery on a rail system laid above the floor. However, it is scarcely suitable for use in an installation according to the invention. Since the paper reel has considerable weight but, because it does not rest on the driven vehicle, does not contribute to the pressure of the driven wheels, sufficient traction is not necessarily ensured.
  • a vehicle particularly suitable for use in a transport installation according to the invention is to be provided.
  • This object is achieved by the features in the characterizing clause of claim 9.
  • the drivable wheels are pressed against the rails independently of its weight, whereby sufficient frictional engagement is assured.
  • FIG. 2 shows a side view of a vehicle according to the invention
  • FIG. 3 shows a longitudinal section through an end segment of a vehicle and an abutting end segment of a carriage coupled thereto
  • FIG. 4 shows a front view of the vehicle according to
  • FIG. 2 and a section through a track on which said vehicle can travel
  • FIGS. 5 a - o show the feeding of a new paper reel to a reel stand by means of the transport installation according to the invention, including the removal of a reel core or residual reel which is exchanged for it.
  • FIG. 5 a shows a part of the transport installation according to the invention from FIG. 1 at the beginning of reel feed
  • FIG. 5 b shows the installation part from FIG. 5 a after a first step of the reel feed
  • FIG. 5 c shows the installation part of FIG. 5 a after a second step of the reel feed

  • FIG. 5 n shows the installation part of FIG. 5 a after a thirteenth step of the reel feed
  • FIG. 5 o shows the installation part of FIG. 5 a at the end of the reel feed.
  • the transport installation according to the invention comprises (FIG. 1) a paper reel store, in particular a buffer store 1 , for holding unpacked paper reels provided with adhesive patches, i.e. prepared for reel change, from which store a straight feed track 2 leads via a plurality of turntables 3 , at each of which a loading track 4 , which leads to a sliding platform 5 or a lifting platform of a reel stand 6 , branches off at right angles.

  • the loading track 4 is flush, on the feed side of the sliding platform 5 , with a track section 7 thereon.
  • On the side facing away from the feed side there is an adjacent storage track
  • a nondriven carriage 9 a which can receive a paper reel 10 is capable of travelling on each of the loading tracks 4 , and a reel core basket 11 for receiving reel cores of spent paper reels is arranged on a further nondriven carriage 9 b which is usually parked on the storage track 8 .
  • a vehicle 12 is capable of travelling on the loading track 4 , the track section 7 and the storage track 8 , which vehicle can be coupled both to the carriage 9 a serving for paper reel transport and to the carriage 9 b carrying the reel core basket 11 .
  • the vehicle 12 has (FIGS. 2 - 4 ) a frame 13 , on the underside of which a pair of wheels 14 ; 15 is mounted in the vicinity of each of the two ends.
  • the axle carrying the pair 14 of wheels is driven by an electric motor 16 via a step-down gear 17 and a mitre gear 18 which is suspended from the underside of the frame 13 .
  • the electric motor 16 is supplied with power via current collectors 19 and a power unit 20 having a converter, and is controlled by a control unit 21 .
  • a marker 22 serves for determining the position of the vehicle 12 , as will be explained in more detail further below.
  • the carriage 9 is formed in a manner known per se with a chassis 30 capable of travelling underfloor on the track and a trough 31 which is arranged above the floor and intended for receiving a paper reel or a reel core basket, etc. and which is connected to the chassis 30 by means of a web. They can in this respect correspond to the carriages described in EP-A-0 587 015.
  • the chassis 30 has, at both ends, end faces which are normal to the longitudinal direction and are formed by an end wall 32 consisting of ferromagnetic material and which the coupling elements 24 of the vehicle 12 can engage.
  • the track is laid underfloor and comprises (FIG. 4), in a manner known per se, two rails 33 in the form of U-profiles which face one another and are supported by means of supporting profiles and thresholds on the bottom of a trench. It is cast in concrete and covered by cover plates 34 which rest on the rails 33 and leave free only a narrow gap 35 located in the middle above the rails 33 .
  • the insides of the lower flanges of the rails 33 form running surfaces on which the wheels 14 , 15 run, while the pressure wheels 23 press elastically against the insides of the upper flanges so that the driven wheels 14 are pressed against the running surfaces and have a reliable frictional connection with the rails 33 .
  • the diameters of the wheels 14 , 15 and of the pressure wheels 23 are preferably identical and only slightly smaller than the distance between the flanges of the rails 33 .
  • Two conductor rails 36 with which the current collectors 19 are in contact are laid in the middle between the running surfaces.
  • a cable duct 37 runs along one of the rails 33 , on the outside thereof and parallel thereto.
  • the vehicle 12 is present substantially between the rails 33 and does not project above the cover plates 34 so that collision with objects lying on the floor or with persons need not be feared.
  • the vehicles 12 can be controlled substantially by a stationary control unit, while the control unit 21 performs in each case only elementary functions.
  • the position of the vehicle is monitored by virtue of the fact that the marker 22 is detected by active sensors on the track. In many cases, it is sufficient if in each case only the presence of the vehicle 12 at specific stopping points and other switching points is detected.
  • the position of the vehicle can also be constantly updated by the control unit, for example by calculating the travel distance by monitoring the wheel revolutions, the detection merely resulting in recalibration of the position. In this case, a single sensor which is regularly passed and then triggers a recalibration in each case may also be sufficient.
  • the marker 22 it is also possible to provide an active sensor, whereas only markers which are detected by the sensor are mounted on the track.
  • the markers can be uniquely identified or indistinguishable and mounted only at specific points or at regular intervals.
  • the detection can be communicated by the vehicle to the control unit via the conductor rails, by radio or by modulated infrared beam.
  • position monitoring by a measuring beam in the track, which interacts with a reflector on the vehicle, but in this case the cross-section of the vehicle as well as of the carriage must not hinder the measuring beam between transmitter and reflector, and moreover position monitoring requires additional installations on the track section 7 of the sliding platform 5 .
  • the vehicle 12 may be in certain travel states, such as ‘stop’, ‘slow forwards’, ‘fast forwards’, ‘slow reverse’, ‘fast reverse’, where ‘fast’ can correspond, for example, to 0.2 m/sec and ‘slow’ to about a fifth thereof. It can be switched in each case by a specific switching command from the control unit to a specific travel state, in which it remains until it receives a further switching command. Alternatively, it can remain in a state for as long as it periodically receives a corresponding command and return to a ground state, such as ‘stop’ when the commands cease.
  • travel states such as ‘stop’, ‘slow forwards’, ‘fast forwards’, ‘slow reverse’, ‘fast reverse’, where ‘fast’ can correspond, for example, to 0.2 m/sec and ‘slow’ to about a fifth thereof. It can be switched in each case by a specific switching command from the control unit to a specific travel state, in which it remains until it receives a further switching command. Alternatively, it can
  • the vehicle 12 can be driven ‘fast’ but, on passing a sensor upstream of the stopping point to be approached, can be switched to ‘slow’ so that, as soon as the marker 22 is detected by a further sensor at the stopping point and switching to ‘stop’ is triggered, it can stop virtually instantaneously.
  • the commands can be transmitted by the control unit once again via the conductor rails 36 , by radio or by a modulated infrared beam to the vehicle 12 . If the vehicle carries an active sensor, certain transitions, such as, for example, ‘slow forwards’-‘stop’ or ‘fast forwards’-‘slow forwards’, can also be triggered directly by signals thereof if it responds to a stopping point or to a switching point upstream thereof.
  • the vehicle can also be supplied with energy in any other manner. It may carry, for example, an energy store, for example a battery, so that no permanent energy transmission is required.

  • a reel change on one of the loading tracks 4 is described below with reference to FIGS. 5 a - o.
  • FIG. 5 a shows the starting position after a reel change and before changing of the reel core or residual reel for a new paper reel.
  • the two-arm reel stand 6 carries an empty reel core or a virtually empty reel core, i.e. a virtually completely spent, separated residual reel and a paper reel which has just been unwound (not shown).

  • the carriage 9 b with the reel core basket 11 is on the storage track 8 .
  • the vehicle 12 In order to remove the reel core from the reel stand, the vehicle 12 first travels ‘fast forwards’ over the rail section 7 of the sliding platform 5 onto the storage track 8 to a switching point where it is switched to ‘slow forwards’. At low speed, it travels with switched-on coupling elements to the carriage 9 b , which carries the reel core basket 11 and is switched to ‘stop’ as soon as the sensor of the front coupling element responds (FIG. 5 b ). The vehicle 12 then travels in ‘fast reverse’ back to the track section 7 , where, on passing a switching point, it is switched to ‘slow reverse’ and thus approaches a stopping point at which it is switched to ‘stop’ and halts.
  • the carriage 9 b with centred reel core basket 11 stands on the sliding platform (FIG. 5 c ). Since the track section 7 is too short also to hold the vehicle 12 completely, the coupling elements are switched off and the vehicle 12 is moved in ‘fast reverse’ a short distance to a stopping point on the loading track 4 , so that it is free of the track section 7 (FIG. 5 d ).
  • the sliding platform 5 is now pushed against the reel stand 6 until the reel core basket 11 stands under the reel core, which is now released by the cones of the reel stand 6 and falls into the reel core basket 11 (reel core 38 , FIG. 5 e ).

  • the vehicle 12 For feeding the paper reel 10 , the vehicle 12 now travels once again in ‘fast reverse’ to a switching point shortly before the stopping position and then continues travelling with switched-on coupling elements in ‘slow reverse’ until it comes into contact with the carriage 9 a , couples to said carriage and is switched to ‘stop’ (FIG. 5 h ). Switched to ‘fast forwards’, the vehicle 12 now travels with the carriage 9 a over the loading track 4 back to the sliding platform 5 , where it once again passes a switching point and, switched to ‘slow forwards’, approaches a stopping point, at which the paper reel 10 is centred on the sliding platform 5 (FIG. 5 i ).
  • the paper reel 10 does not always rest exactly centred on the carriage 9 a or if different reel widths are possible, the passage of its front edge or of the front edge and of the rear edge can be detected by a light barrier, and an adjusting displacement can be performed after reaching the stopping point.
  • the vehicle 12 is then uncoupled and is moved to a stopping point on the storage track 8 , on which it is free from the track section 7 (FIG. 5 j ). Thereafter, the sliding platform with the carriage 9 a is moved towards the reel stand 6 and the paper reel 10 is clamped between the cones which have become free through the ejection of the reel core (FIG. 5 k ) and said paper reel is raised from the carriage 9 a . The sliding platform 5 with the carriage 9 a is then moved back to the transfer position (FIG. 5 l ).

  • the vehicle 12 travels in ‘fast reverse’ over the track section 7 and the loading track 4 up to the switching point upstream of the waiting station and in ‘slow reverse’ until it reaches a stopping point, where at the same time the carriage 9 a occupies the waiting station (FIG. 5 n ).
  • the coupling elements are then switched off and the vehicle 12 is moved back to its stopping point adjacent to the sliding platform 5 (FIG. 5 o ).
  • the starting stage is once again reached, with the difference that the carriage 9 a carries no paper reel.
  • the carriage 9 a can then be moved manually and replaced by a carriage which is loaded with a paper reel and which is likewise moved manually to the waiting station. If the transport installation is appropriately equipped, the carriage 9 a can, however, also be loaded with a new paper reel at the waiting station, which paper reel is brought directly from the buffer store, for example by means of a crane system.
  • a further storage track can be provided parallel to the storage track in the displacement region of the sliding platform, on which further storage track the vehicle is temporarily parked so that it is out of the way and the carriage with the reel core basket can be moved manually over the track section and the loading track to a disposal station.
  • the loading tracks can also be fed by a movable carriage which is in the form of a sliding platform and can be moved parallel to the row of reel stands and carries a track section which is oriented transversely, i.e. parallel to the loading tracks, and at whose end a coupling element and a sensor which correspond to those of the vehicle are provided for holding a carriage at a loading position.
  • the carriage standing in the loading position on the movable carriage is in this case loaded at the buffer store by means of a crane or by telescopic arms and then the movable carriage is moved until its track section is flush with a selected loading track, whereupon the vehicle travels on the track section, couples to the carriage and pulls it over the loading track onto the sliding platform.
  • the reel feed from the buffer store takes place automatically in this case.
