Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for applying one or more coating liquids in a layer or layers to the surface of a continuously travelling web.
- the backing roller is usually driven by an electric motor, and, in such case, the vibrations caused by the rotations of the motor and the backing roller are transferred to the support and the coating device, which results in the formation of lateral stripelike unevenness in the coated layer.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing the entire system for conducting an embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 are enlarged cross-sectional views showing two embodiments of forming a single layer in accordance with the present invention.
- FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 are enlarged cross-sectional views showing two embodiments of forming multiple layers in accordance withthe present invention.
- a web 1 to be coated such as, a plastic film or a paper
- a conveyer 2 is continuously moved at a constant speed in the direction indicated by the arrows by means of a conveyer 2 and is usually provided with a constant tension by a tension controlling means.
- a gas chamber 4 into which a pressurized gas, such as air, is supplied by means of a blower and the like is placed facing the back surface of the travelling web.
- the surface of the gas chamber 4 facing the web is provided with many small holes or slits 5.
- the gas jetted through the holes or slits forms a space 6' between said gas chamber 4 and the web 1, having a higher pressure than the side of the web surface to be coated. This floats the web out from the outer surface of the gas chamber with the distance defined by the tension of the web previously provided by tension means 3 and the gas pressure in the space, whereby the continuously travelling web follows a stable and definite path.
- Free rollers 7 and 7 rotating with the same speed and in the same direction as those of the travelling web and a resistance plate 8 positioned on the transverse sides of the space formed between the gas chamber 4 and the free roller 7 are so placed that the abrupt outflow of the gas along the back surface of the web at the inlet and outlet portions of the web to the gas chamber section is prevented so that there is no flapping of the web.
- a coating device composed of a doctor edge 9 and a coating liquid reservoir 12.
- Said doctor edge is placed at the position where the edge is slightly apart from or almost in contact with the surface of the web 1 travelling continuously while floating a slight distance from the outer surface of the gas chamber 4, or the doctor edge pushes the web slightly to the side of the gas chamber while maintaining a suitable distance from the surface of the gas chamber.
- the reservoir is so constructed that a coating liquid is always supplied to the space between the back side of the doctor edge and the surface of the web to be coated.
- the coating liquid is withdrawn by the travelling Web through the clearance between the doctor edge and the web in a layer of a definite thickness determined by the travelling speed of the web, the strength of contact of the doctor edge with the surface of the web, the pressure of the coating liquid behind the doctor edge, the viscosity of the coating liquid and the like.
- the thickness of the coated layer may be controlled over a wide range by suitably selecting the above-mentioned conditions, and further, the thickness thereof may be maintained stably by keeping the conditions constant.
- a so-called slide-type bead coating means having an inclined wall 15 and a coating liquid reservoir 12, is employed to apply a single layer of a coating liquid to a continuously travelling web 1 floating a slight distance from a gas chamber 4, similar to that of the type shown in FIG. 2.
- the present invention is applicable in the case of forming multiple layers simultaneously, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5. That is, in one embodiment shown in FIG. 4, a three-layer coating means consisting of a combination of a doctor coating means, having a doctor edge 9 and a coating liquid reservoir 12, and a slide coating means, having inclined walls 16 and 17 and coating liquid reservoirs 13 and 14, is employed in the floating system of this invention. In the floating system, as shown in PEG. 4, however, the resistance plate 8 in FIGS. 1 to'3 is omitted and a gas chamber 4 of a specific structure and three free rolls are employed instead. Further, in still another embodiment of this invention, as shown in FIG. 5, a so-called multiple doctor type coating means having doctor edges 9, 10, and 11 and coating liquid reservoirs 12, 13 and 14 is employed.
- the coating bead Since the web is pressed to the bead edge of the coating device at a constant pressure, the coating bead is neither flickered nor broken by the air stream carried by the travelling web. Hence, the coating can be conducted at a high speed and with reduced coating unevenness, as compared with a conventional bead coating method.
- Coating liquid gelatino silver halide emulsion for copying papers; viscosity 20 cp.; density 1.05 g./cm.
- Feeding rate of coating liquid 2.5 liter/min./m. width.
- the layer was set immediately and dried.
- the thus coated layer had uniform distribution in thickness and no unevenness, showing that the copying paper had satisfactory qualities.
- Example 2 The three-layer coating of gelatino silver halide emulsion for a positive cinecolor film was conducted on an under-coated cellulose triacetate film according to the present invention using the apparatus as shown in FIG. 4 under the following conditions:
- Coating liquid for the first layer blue-sensitive emulsion; viscosity 50 cp.; density 1.05 g./cm. feeding rate thereof 1.0 liter/min./m. width.
- Coating liquid for the second layer red-sensitive emulsion; viscosity 50* cp.; density 1.03 g./cm. feeding rate thereof 1.8 liter/min./m. width.
- Coating liquid for the third layer green-sensitive emulsion; viscosity 50 cp.; density 1.04 g./cm. feeding rate thereof 1.2 liter/min./m. width.
- Static pressure in gas chamber 4 500 mm. H O gauge.
- the layers were set immediately and dried.
- the thus coated layers had uniform distribution in thickness, no unevenness, and no intermixing therein, which showed that the product had satisfactory qualities.
- a method for evenly coating a plurality of liquid layers on the surface of a continuously moving web comprising:
