Definitions
- the present mvention relates to a web tension nulling mechanism for a traveling web More particularly, it relates to such a mechanism m a corrugator glue machine, so the position and alignment of the traveling web with respect to a glue applicator roll m the machine can be very precisely controlled independently of the tension, or of tension changes, in the traveling web
- Corrugated cardboard composite is used m a large number of applications It is particularly desirable m packaging applications because it is rugged and has high dimensional and structural integrity
- a corrugated cardboard composite generally consists of first- and second- face sheets of cardboard material having a relatively flat or smooth contour, and a corrugated sheet sandwiched m between the first- and second- face sheets with the flute crests on each side of the corrugated sheet glued to the adjacent face sheet
- This composite typically is made by first gluing (the flute crests on) one side of the corrugated sheet to the first- face sheet to provide a smgle-faced corrugated sheet or web via known or conventional techniques
- This smgle-faced corrugated web then is fed to a corrugator glue machine, where glue is applied to the exposed flute crests of the corrugated sheet, opposite the first-face sheet, m order subsequently to bond the second- face sheet thereto, thus creating the sandwich construction described above
- a conventional co ⁇ ugator glue machine has been used for applying glue to exposed flute crests opposite the first-face sheet
- a conventional glue machine is shown m Fig 1, denoted "Pnor Art "
- the traveling s gle-faced corrugated web 5 approaches the glue machine 10' toward a delivery idler rollei 12'
- the tiavelmg web 5 is earned aiound this roller 12' and is delivered via a generally serpentine path to and around a web positioning roller 14', such that the web 5 passes around the roller 14' and through a gap 18' between the web positioning roller 14' and a glue applicator roller 16'.
- the web 5 is conveyed through this gap 18' oriented such that the exposed flute crests 6 face the glue applicator roller 16' so that glue can be applied thereto by contacting a thin glue film 4 on the outer circumferential surface of the glue applicator roll 16' as the web 5 traverses the gap 18',
- the glue film is applied to the outer surface of the applicator roller by conventional means or-as described, e.g., in U.S. Patent No. 6,602,546, which is incorporated herein by reference.
- Other aspects of glue apphcation to the exposed flute crests of the single- faced web are described, e.g., in U.S. Patent No. 6,602,546 incorporated hereinabove.
- both the delivery idler roller 12' and the web positioning roller 14' are pivotally mounted to the same support arm 20', which is pivotally attached at its proximal end to a base member 40' of the glue machine at pivot joint 22'.
- the reason for the pivotal attachment of the support arm 20' is to permit the position of the positioning roller 14' to be adjusted relative to the applicator roller 16' in order to adjust the gap 18' width.
- the rollers 12' and 14' cannot move relative to one another.
- the rotational axis of the delivery idler roller 12' is located a greater distance from the pivot joint 22' than that of the positioning roller 14', the significance of which will be explained below.
- a pressure controller 50' is mounted to the glue machine and is operatively coupled to the support arm 20' to actuate the arm 20' for regulating the width of the gap 18'. In this manner, the controller 50' is responsible for regulating the pressure with which flutes 6 are compressed against the applicator roller 16' by the positioning roller 14'.
- a significant problem in this conventional construction is that the tension of the traveling web 5 causes unequal and oppositely acting moments Mi and M 2 at the delivery idler roller 12' and the positioning roller 14', respectively, to act on the support arm 20' which is pivoted from a base member 40' of the glue machine.
- moments Mi and Mi are unequal is that while each is the result of substantially the same net force (due to web tension), the respective lever arm lengths for each moment, measured from the pivot point of the support arm 20' (pivot joint 22') to the point of action of the respective moment (rotational axes of the rollers 12' and 14'), are different.
- the vector sum of these unequal moments, Mi and M 2 is a net effective moment M 3 acting in the direction of the moment Mi, which tends to pivot the support arm 20', and therefore the positioning roller 14', toward the applicator roller 16'.
- the pressure controller 50' must compensate for this pivot force on the positioning roller 14' based on the tension in web 5 in addition to regulating the gap width to achieve optimal glue application to the flute crests 6. This is a substantial burden on the pressure controller 50' in the conventional glue machine. In addition, if there is a sudden or unpredictable change in the tension of the traveling web 5, the pressure controller 50' may not react quickly enough to compensate for the resulting change in the tension-based pivot force on the positioning roller 14'.
- the pressure controller 50' also can over- or under-compensate which can result in substantial stretches of the single-faced corrugated web having too much or too little glue apphed to the flutes 6, or otherwise having the flutes 6 substantially crushed These stretches of the web are unusable or unsaleable for the intended purpose, and contribute to substantial material waste, lost profits and/or increased price to the consumer.
- the positioning roller 14' sometimes is maintained in a fixed absolute position during operation by biasing the support arm 20' toward the applicator roller 16' against one or a series of hard stops using an excessive pressure or force such that web tension (or tension changes) are insufficient to counteract the biasing force and divert the fixed position of the roller 14'.
- This design is limited in that neither the width of the gap 18' nor the pressure exerted by the roller 14' on the flute crests 6 against the applicator roller 16' can be metered or controlled during machine operation, but are fixed.
- Fig. 1 labeled "Prior Art,” shows a side view of conventional corrugator glue machine.
- Fig. 2 shows a side view of a corrugator glue machine according to a first embodiment of the invention.
- Fig. 2a is a force-member diagram of certain members of the corrugator gbue machine of Fig. 2 superimposed over the corresponding members from Fig. 2, shown during operation thereof.
- Fig. 3 shows a top perspective view of the corrugator glue machine of Fig. 2.
- FIG. 4 shows a side view of a corrugator glue machine according to a second embodiment of the invention.
- a corrugator glue machine having an idler roller and a web positioning roller that cooperate to at least partially define a serpentine web path through the machine.
- a position of the positioning roller is freely adjustable within a predetermined range during operation of the machine.
- the glue machine further includes a web tension nulling mechanism effective to cancel out forces exerted on the web positioning roller resulting from tension in the web, such that these forces do not substantially affect the position of the positioning roller within the predete ⁇ nined range.
- a corrugator glue machine also is provided having a web positioning roller for carrying a web of material over its circumferential outer surface during operation of the machine, means for adjusting the position of the web positioning roller during operation of the machine, and a web tension nulling mechanism effective to cancel out forces exerted on the web positioning roller resulting from tension in the web, such that the adjusting means experience substantially no forces resulting from web tension.
- a corrugator glue machine also is provided having a web positioning roller for carrying a web of material over its circumferential outer surface during operation of the machine, a glue applicator roller parallel to the web positioning roller and adapted to be provided with a glue film on its circumferential outer surface during operation of the machine, wherein the positioning and glue applicator rollers define a gap between their respective circumferential outer surfaces.
- Means also are provided for adjusting the width of the gap during operation of the machine. The machine is configured such that the gap width adjusting means experience substantially no forces resulting from web tension during operation of the machine.
- the glue machine 10 includes a delivery idler roller 12, a web positioning roller 14 and a glue applicator roller 16 substantially similar in placement as the corresponding rollers described above.
- the web 5 is conveyed toward and around the delivery idler roller 12, then toward and around the web positioning roller 14 in a generally serpentine path such that, on traversing the gap 18, the web 5 is oriented having its flutes facing the glue applicator roller 16 and is pressed up against the outer circumferential surface of that roller 16 to achieve the desired level of glue application onto the exposed flute crests 6 of the passing web 5.
- the delivery idler roller 12 is rotationally attached to a first support arm 20a whose proximal end is pivotally attached to a base 40 of the glue machine 10 (or to rigidly connected members which together comprise a base for the glue machine) at support pivot joint 22a.
- the web positioning roller is rotationally attached to a second support arm 20b, whose proximal end is pivotally attached to the base 40 of the glue machine 10 at a second support pivot joint 22b.
- Each of the support arms 20a and 20b is independently pivotable relative to the base 40 of the glue machine about its own respective support pivot axis defined at its respective pivot joint.
- each of the support pivot joints 22a and 22b is located or vertically aligned substantially beneath the center of gravity (axis of rotation) of the respective roller 12, 14 during operation of the glue machine, so the roller masses do not induce significant moments about the pivot joints in their respective support arms 20a, 20b which must be compensated for by the pressure controller 50 (described below).
- each of the support arms 20a and 20b can be pivotally attached at its proximal end at the same pivot joint (e.g. on the same shaft) or at coaxially aligned pivot joints, so long as the support arms 20a and 20b remain independently pivotable relative to one another (except as a result of the cross member 25, described below).
- a cross member 25 is provided extending transversely of, and linking the first and second support arms 20a and 20b as described in this paragraph.
- the cross member 25 is pivotally attached at its first end to the first support arm 20a at a first linking pivot joint 26, and at its second end to the second support arm 20b at a second linking pivot joint 27.
- the cross member 25 is freely pivotable relative to each of the first and second support arms 20a and 20b at the respective linking pivot joint 26,27, and but for its attachment to the other support arm at its opposite end, the cross member 25 would be free to rotate about each of the linking pivot joints at each support arm.
- the geometry of the cross member 25 is selected based on the locations of the rotational axes of the idler and positioning rollers 12 and 14 relative to their respective support pivot joints 22a and 22b so that the greater moment generated at the idler roller 12, compared to that generated at the positioning roller 14, from web tension is mechanically balanced out to achieve equilibrium in both support arms based on web tension- induced forces.
- FIG. 2a a force-member diagram is shown depicting the forces acting on the above-described mechanical system resulting from web tension as the web 5 follows the serpentine path around the idler and positioning rollers 12 and 14.
- Fig. 2a Represented in Fig. 2a are the first and second support arms 20a and 20b, the cross member 25 and the rollers 12 and 14, as well as the first and second pivot joints 22a and 22b, and the first and second linking pivot joints 26 and 27.
- the points of attachment of the cross member 25 to the support arms are selected so as to compensate out the relative mechanical advantage of the first support arm 20a over the second support arm 20b based on its longer lever arm length.
- each of the rollers 12 and 14 be oriented such that, when the glue machine is operating 10, each roller's rotational axis is vertically aligned over the respective support pivot joint 22a or 22b, in order to avoid any roller mass-based moments being generated in either of the support aims 20a or 20b. If, for some reason, it is found to be desirable or necessary in a particular application to orient one or both of the rollers in a different geometry, then obviously the resulting mass-based moment in the affected support arm(s) will need to be taken into consideration. In addition, if the distances dj and do are not oriented parallel, then the angles a and ⁇ will not both be 90° and angles ⁇ and ⁇ B will not necessarily be congruent.
- each of the distances di-cL referred to above is to be measured as the linear distance between the respectively defined points, and not necessarily as the length of any actual member.
- di is the linear distance between the first pivot joint 22a (pivot axis) and the axis of rotation of the delivery idler roller 12; do is the linear distance between the second pivot joint 22b (pivot axis) and the axis of rotation of the web positioning roller 14;
- d 3 is the linear distance between the axes of the first pivot joint 22a and the first linking pivot joint 26;
- cU is the linear distance between the axes of the second pivot joint 22b and the second linking pivot joint 27.
- first and second support arms 20a and 20b which may be straight or curved members.
- arms 20a and 20b when referring to the arms 20a and 20b as being parallel or substantially parallel, it will be understood that what is being referred to are imaginary lines drawn along the respective distances di for the first support arm 20a and do for the second support arm 20b. Where the support aims 20a and 20b are straight members, these imaginary lines will become substantially colinear with their support arms, and the distinction between the actual support aim and the respective linear distance between two points on that arm will be diminished.
- the absolute position of the positioning roller 14 need not be fixed during operation of the machine 10 in order to prevent its being acted on by web tension-induced forces or moments, and, according to the invention, the roller 14 is permitted to float freely within a predetermined range in an arc about its support pivot joint 22b during operation of the glue machine.
- the roller 14 is freely adjustable within this predetermined range during operation of the glue machine.
- a pressure or gap metering controller 50 is coupled to the second supp * ort arm 20b as shown in Figs 2 and 4, which otherwise is freely adjustable during machine operation as described in the preceding paragraph.
- the controller 50 is capable of precisely metering the width of the gap 18 between the positioning and applicator rollers 14 and 16, andVor the pressure exerted by the roller 14 on the flutes against the applicator roller 16 to achieve optimal glue application to the passing flute crests 6.
- the pressure controller 50 does not have to compensate or account for tension in the web 5, nor is its operation or the precise metering of gap 18 substantially disturbed or affected due to even significant sudden or unpredictable changes in web tension. This presents several significant advantages over conventional glue machines.
- the pressure controller 50 can incorporate very high precision motors, servos, pneumatic cylinders, or the like, or suitable combinations of these or other conventional mechanical or pneumatic or hydraulic metering devices, to achieve very high precision metering of the position of roller 14 as well as the pressure exerted thereby on the web 5 against the appli ator roller 16, to provide precise dynamic gap metering control for a wide range of different flute sizes (e.g., sizes A through E or smaller) to achieve optimal glue-to-flute application.
- very high precision metering components for the controller 50 were problematic due to relatively large web tension-effect forces, as well as sudden significant changes in such forces, that the controller 50 had to withstand and compensate for.
- the pressure controller 50 can be coupled to the first support arm 20a in order to regulate the width of the gap 18, though this is less preferred.
- the nulling mechanism according to the invention as illustrated is effective to counteract or substantially null out forces and moments exerted on machine members (such as rollers 12,14, and support arms 20a,20b) resulting from tension in the traveling web 5, so these forces do not affect the position of the roller 14 within the predetermined range described above.
- the controller 50 can provide effective metering of the gap 18 during operation of the glue machine 10 that takes into account and compensates against the predictable forces resulting from roller-mass induced moments based on the relative position of the positioning roller 14 within the predetermined range.
- That predetermined range may vary based on the machine and its particular application, but generally will be broad enough to accommodate a wide range of flute sizes, as well as a broad range of compression rates for each flute size that is to be compatible with the glue machine.
- the predetermined range can be, for example, an arc length of up to at least 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10, inches, with the controller 50 capable to maintain precise dynamic gap metering control within such range.
- Fig. 2 is a side view, and that typically the glue machine 10 will have two "first" support arms 20a located at opposite ends of the laterally extending delivery idler roller 12, as well as two “second” support arms 20b located at opposite ends of the laterally extending web positioning roller 14 (see Fig.
- each of the rollers 12 and 14 is rotationally supported on a respective axially extending lateral shaft 31 ,32 that is supported at its opposite ends on the paired "first" support arms 20a or the paired “second” support arms 20b as shown in Fig. 3.
- a suitable cross member 25 is provided linking both sets of the adjacent first and second support aims 20a and 20b located on either side of the glue machine 10, with each cross member 25 having suitable geometry as described above to null out web tension effects.
- the glue machine can be provided such that each of the rollers 12 and 14 is rotationally supported on a shaft that is cantilevered from a single support arm, such as the respective first and second support arms 20a and 20b shown in Fig. 2, located on only one side of the machine.
- a cross member 25 is provided on only one side of the machine 10 linking the first and second support arms 20a and 20b.
- both the first and second support arms 20a and 20b are anchored to the ba-.se 40 of the glue machine 10 at respective pivot joints 22a and 22b located in substantially the same horizontal plane; i.e. they are at substantially the same elevation. However, this is not required. As seen in Fig. 4, it is permissible, and in some cases it is preferred, to anchor the second support arm 20b to the machine base 40 at a pivot joint located at an elevation different from that of tbie first support arm 20a. As evident by comparing Fig. 2 and Fig. 4, this will result in the cross member 25 having a different slope between the respective first and second linking pivot joints 26 and 27, assuming the relative positions of the rollers 12 and 14 do not change.
- the geometries of the first and second support amis 20a and 20b, the cross member 25, the first and second pivot joints 22a and 22b and the first and second linking pivot joints 26 and 27, all cooperate to provide an effective web tension nulling mechanism such that web tension- effect forces on the respective idler and positioning rollers 12 and 14 are effectively canceled out.
- the geometry of the elements mentioned in this paragraph is selected according to the invention such that the moments acting on the first and second support arms 20a and 20b, based on the tension in the web 5 acting through contact with the rollers 12 and 14, are effectively mechanically canceled out so that their vector sum is equal or substantially equal to zero.
- the cross member 25 dynamically links the rollers 12 and 14 in a manner so as to achieve this effect.
- any change in the tension of traveling web 5 will result in corresponding equal changes in the magnitudes of the oppositely acting moments in the respective first and second support arms 20a and 20b, the net effect being that these moments mechanically cancel out resulting in a net zero change in the position of the positioning roller 14 due to transient web tension effects. Consequently, the pressure controller experiences no or substantially no net forces as a result of web tension effects, which is then responsible solely for regulating the gap 18 width (and for compensating predictable roller mass-based moments).
- the glue machine according to the invention incorporating the above-described web tension nulling geometry, allows very precise metering of the gap 18 regardless and independent of the web tension, or of sudden changes in the web tension based on external factors beyond the scope of the glue machine.
- the above description of the web tension nulling mechanism has been provided with respect to a transversely extending cross member 25 pivotally linked to first and second support arms 20a and 20b, which in turn support the idler roller 12 and web positioning roller 14.
- the nulling mechanism according to the invention is not to be correspondingly limited to this construction.
- linkage systems comprising a plurality of members can be incorporated to dynamically link the idler and positioning rollers 12 and 14, or the first and second support arms 20a and 20b, so as to effectively 'cancel out the web tension- induced forces as described herein; the invention is not limited to a single cross member 25.
- gap metering control has been described above with respect to adjusting the position of the web positioning roller 14.
- gap metering control can be achieved by fixing the position of the positioning roller 14 and adjusting the position of the glue roller 16.
- This construction is less preferred because of the relative complexity associated with adjusting the position of the glue applicator roller 16 during machine operation.
- the thickness of the glue film 4 applied to the circumferential surface of the applicator roller 16 also typically is precisely metered to achieve optimal glue application, e.g., by the methods described in Pat. No. 6,602,546 incorporated hereinabove.
- the relative positions of a substantial number of additional machine components also would need to be conespondingly adjusted, such as the glue tray and isobar assemblies described in that patent.
- one method would be to incorporate all of the applicator roller-associated components onto a subassembly and to provide a rail system for translating the subassembly relative to the positioning roller 14.
- adjustment in this manner may compromise the precision of the glue film application components, as well as contribute excessive complexity and cost to the machine's manufacture.
- the positioning roller 14 it is preferred to adjust the position of the positioning roller 14 relative to that of the applicator roller 16 whose position is fixed on a stationary rotational axis, and to mechanically cancel out web tension-induced forces acting on the positioning roller, or on any of its associated linkages, by incorporating a web tension nulling mechanism as disclosed herein.
