No. 303,816, Aug. 22, 1963. 'this application June 2, 1966, Ser. No. 554,912 Claims priority, application Great Britain, Sept. 6, 1962, 34,130/ 62 8 Claims. (Cl. 226-44) This application is a continuation of application Ser. No. 303,816 filed Aug. 22, 1963, now abandoned.
The invention relates to apparatus for controlling the tension in a web, for example of paper, plastic, foil, cloth or the like, during its transit through processing machinery, the apparatus being of the kind employing a roller commonly called a loop or dancing roller, which is mounted to carry a loop in the web and is movable, usually vertically, at right angles to its axis of rotation to lengthen or shorten the loop of the web in response to a decrease or increase in the tension of the web respectively from a mean position established by a predetermined thrust imparted to the roller in accordance with the required tension, the movement of the roller from its mean position being sensed and employed to control a feeding or take up mechanism so as to decrease or increase respectively the rate of feed of the web and so correct the departure of the web from the required tension.
The present invention has for its object a web tensioning apparatus of particularly simple and reliable construction which is able to exercise a fine and accurate tension control.
The present invention consists of an apparatus for controlling tension in a web comprising a loop roller supported by fluid operated pistons and cylinders with the latter connected to a source of substantially constant fluid pressure.
Preferably said cylinders are connected to a common fluid reservoir of relatively large capacity, and a fluid pressure input to said reservoir is fed through a pressure regulator which can be adjusted to vary the pressure in said reservoir and hence the tension applied by the loop roller to the web.
One example of the practical realisation of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
FIGURE 1 shows schematically a web tensioning system according to the invention; and
FIGURE 2 is a longitudinal cross-section of a piston and cylinder of the type employed in the system of FIG- URE 1.
In the embodiment of the invention illustrated in FIG- URE 1 the web 2 passes through the nip between a pair of feed rollers 3 and 4 driven from an electric motor 5, and thence passes beneath a horizontally spaced apart parallel pair of horizontally extending idle rollers 6 and 7. Mounted for movement in a vertical plane between and parallel to the axis of the idle rollers 6 and 7 is a loop or dancing roller 8 rotatably mounted on a shaft 9 which is supported in the vicinity of its two ends by a pair of single acting fluid-operated pistons and cylinders 10 and 11 disposed one on each side of the web and beneath the shaft 9.
Both of the cylinders 10 and 11 are fed from a common reservoir 12 or accumulator of large capacity compared with that of the cylinders 10 and 11 so that movement of the pistons results in an insignificant change in pressure in the reservoir 12. The reservoir 12 is in turn fed from a fluid source (not shown) through an adjustable pressure regulator 13 which can be controlled to vary the pressure in the reservoir and thus the thrust applied by the pistons 10 and 11.
The loop roller shaft 9 is engaged in the forked end of an arm 14 fast on a spindle 15 driving an error signal generator 16 in a conventional type of servo system 17 designed to control the speed of the drive imparted to the feed rolls 3 and 4 by the electric motor 5.
In operation, the pressure regulator 13 is set to a given value to maintain a selected substantially constant pressure in the reservoir 12 whereby a required upward thrust is imparted to the two ends of the loop roller shaft 9 carrying a loop of web 2 between the two idle rollers 6 and 7 so as to create the required tension in the web. Following any increase or decrease in tension in the web 2 the length of the loop in the web decreases or increases respectively thereby depressing or elevating the loop roller '8 which still maintains its selected thrust on the web, and this loop roller movement transmits via shaft 9, forked arm 14 and spindle 15, an equivalent angular movement to the error signal generator 16 so as to increase or decrease the speed of the drive imparted to the feed rollers 3 and 4 thereby to correct the web tension.
It will be appreciated that for sensitive control of the web tension the friction between the pistons and cylinders 10 and 11 must be of a low order. To this end, and as shown in FIGURE 2, each piston 20 is of substantially smaller diameter than that of the bore of its cylinder 21 and a seal between these parts is made by a rubber bag like diaphragm 22, having an upper closed end which supports the piston 20 with a fold '22 in the diaphragm between the periphery of the piston and the cylinder so that movement of the piston in the cylinder is accompanied by rolling of the fold in the diaphragm along the internal wall of the cylinder. By this means direct frictional engagement of the piston with the cylinder is avoided and the friction present is only that resisting flexing of the diaphragm 22.
Preferably the fluid pressure medium employed is air rather than a liquid to provide resilience in the mounting of the loop roller 9.
