Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus and or system used to coil lengths of elongated materials onto a spool and or reel. More particularly, the present invention provides an improved coiling by using a computer and sensors to detect and manage the turnaround point on the traverse while winding.
  • Coiling is typically a reference to taking the elongated material from a large spool and or reel to a smaller desired length for redistribution and wrapping it freely into a coil with no spool and or reel.
  • Spooling is typically a reference to taking the elongated material from a large spool and or reel to a smaller desired length for redistribution then wrapped around another spool and or reel for redistribution.
  • the present invention provides a new and improved apparatus, system, and method of using the same.
  • the general purpose of the present invention which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a new and improved spooling and or coiling system for use with elongated materials, which has all the advantages of the prior art devices and none and or fewer of the disadvantages.
  • the present invention is an apparatus, system, and method for a new and improved spooling and or coiling system during the winding process. It is contemplated to provide electrical sensors mounted on the traversing mechanism to detect flanges of different width or reel and spools as the flanges are approached during winding that provides an automatically turnaround point without human intervention and is computer controlled with communication from the sensor.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved spooling and or coiling apparatus, system, and method that eliminates the manual step of adjustment thus saving time and enabling operators to manage more winding stations.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved spooling and or coiling apparatus, system, and method, which may provide neatly wound rows of product without overlapping, excessive gaps between rows, consistent product orientation with no “roll-overs”, and no tangled rows.
  • Still another object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved spooling and or coiling apparatus, system, and method, which does not crush or distort elongated materials with a pile. It is a further object of the present invention to provide a new and improved spooling and or coiling apparatus, system, and method, which is of a durable and reliable construction and may be utilized in numerous types of coiling applications.
  • An even further object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved spooling and or coiling apparatus, system, and method, which benefits from a low cost of manufacture that accordingly results in a low price of sale to the consuming industry, thereby making such a system economically available to those in the industry.
  • Still another object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved spooling and or coiling apparatus, system, and method, which provides all the advantages of the prior art while simultaneously overcoming some of the disadvantages normally associated therewith.
  • Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved spooling and or coiling apparatus, system and method that increases safety and removes the human element from having to climb into a machine to set traverse limits thereby making the process with improved ergonomics.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved spooling and or coiling apparatus, system, and method, which may automatically adjust for different reel and spool widths, sizes, and so forth.
  • Figure l is a general perspective view of a preferred embodiment in accordance with current invention.
  • Figure 2 is a general perspective view of a preferred embodiment in accordance with current invention.
  • Figure 3 is a general perspective view of a preferred embodiment in accordance with current invention.
  • Figure 4 is a general perspective view of a preferred embodiment in accordance with current invention.
  • reference character 10 generally designates a new and improved spooling and or coiling apparatus, system, and method of using the same constructed in accordance with the present invention.
  • Invention 10 is generally used with elongated materials needing to be made into smaller segments for distribution from a larger spool and or reel.
  • Elongated materials may be but are not limited to plastic profiles, such as but not limited to hollow profiles, flexible extrusions, hoses, electrical cables, steel cables, wire cables, felt, and so forth.
  • the reference numeral 10 may generally be utilized for the indication of the invention, portion of the invention, preferred embodiments of the invention and so on. It is also to be understood that invention 10 should not be considered limited to just spooling and coiling and the terms should not be considered to limit the invention to such.
  • Invention 10 may comprise a frame 20, a removable reel 30 having a barrel 40 between a first flange 50 and a second flange 60, a traverse feed system 70, and a computer control 80. Invention 10 also contemplates mounting a first sensor 90 and second sensor 100 on traverse feed system 70 first side or end 110 and second side or end 120, respectively.
  • First sensor 90 and second sensor 100 are in communication with computer control 80 for sensing when traverse feed system 70 on frame 20 is nearing first flange 50 and second flange 60, respectively.
  • First sensor 90 and second sensor 100 may utilize lasers It is also contemplated that numerous sensors may be utilized.
  • First sensor 90 and second sensor 100 may be mounted as close to the tangent point of the reel 30 as possible. First sensor 90 and second sensor 100 may be mounted to traverse feed system 70 but above the frame 20 getting as close to the reel 30 tangent point 130 as possible. Operation
  • Invention 10 contemplates:
  • reel core diameter and flange diameter could be measured automatically to help create reel recipe.
  • invention 10 contemplates a coiling system for coiling elongated materials on a removable reel comprising: said removable reel having a first flange, a second flange, a barrel between said first flange and said second flange; a traverse feed system having a first end with a first laser sensor for detecting said first flange, a second end with a second laser sensor for detecting said second flange; wherein said traverse feed system is adapted for coiling elongated material on said barrel between said first flange and said second flange; wherein said traverse feed system has a computer control in communication with said first laser sensor and adapted to reverse said traverse feed system when said first laser sensor detects said first flange; and wherein said traverse feed system said computer control is in communication with said second laser sensor and adapted to reverse said traverse feed system when said second laser sensor detects said second flange.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un appareil, un système et un procédé pour un nouveau système d'enroulement amélioré qui fournit des capteurs à une commande d'ordinateur sur la traverse pendant l'enroulement, les capteurs étant montés sur le mécanisme traversant pour détecter des flasques de différentes largeurs ou un dévidoir et des bobines au fur et à mesure que les flasques sont approchées pendant l'enroulement qui fournit un point de retournement automatique sans intervention humaine et qui est commandé par ordinateur avec une communication provenant du capteur.
