Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Rakelgerät, das aus einer Kunststoffprofilleiste sowie einer parallel zu der Längsachse der Kunststoffprofilleiste sich über deren Länge erstreckenden und in diese eingebetteten Kernleiste aus Stahl od. dgl. Material besteht, wobei das Rakelgerät an wenigstens einem Haltearm gehalten ist und die Kernleiste im Bereich einer von der Kunststoffprofilleiste geführten Rakel (Rakelelement) angeordnet ist. Ein solches Rakelgerät ist mit seiner Rakelarbeitskante oder -fläche gegen eine Arbeitsunterlage (Arbeitsfläche) wie einen Tisch, eine Walze und ggf. eine daraufliegende Materialbahn, ein Transportband, eine Schablone und dgl. anpressbar. Die Geräte werden insbesondere zum Auftragen von Sustanzen auf eine zu bedruckende oder zu beschichtende Arbeitsfläche eingesetzt. Sie werden aber auch verwendet, um eine flächenförmige Unterlage wie eine Bahn, ein flächiges Materialstück, eine Walze oder ein Band durch einen Abstreif- oder Dichtungsvorgang zu behandeln. Durch die Neigungsposition der Profilleiste, ggf. durch Verschwenken des Rakelgeräts und/oder Feststellen des Rakelgerät-Schwenkwinkels wird die Grösse eines gewünschten Substanzraums zwischen der Profilleiste und der Arbeitsfläche vor dem Rakelelement bzw. ein gewünschter Anlagewinkel des Rakelelements an der Arbeitsfläche bestimmt oder eingestellt.The invention relates to a doctor blade device which consists of a plastic profile strip and a core strip made of steel or the like which extends parallel to the longitudinal axis of the plastic profile strip and is embedded in the latter. The doctor blade device is held on at least one holding arm and the core strip in Area of a squeegee (squeegee element) guided by the plastic profile strip is arranged. Such a squeegee device can be pressed with its squeegee working edge or surface against a work surface (work surface) such as a table, a roller and possibly a material web lying thereon, a conveyor belt, a stencil and the like. The devices are used in particular to apply substances to a work surface to be printed or coated. However, they are also used to treat a sheet-like support such as a web, a sheet of material, a roller or a belt by means of a stripping or sealing process. The size of a desired substance space between the profile bar and the work surface in front of the doctor element or a desired contact angle of the doctor element on the work surface is determined or set by the inclination position of the profile bar, possibly by pivoting the doctor device and / or determining the swivel angle of the doctor device.

Aus DE-GM 87 13 789.5, EP-A1-0 311 728 und EP-A1-0 311 730 sind Rakelgerät-Profilleisten mit in diese eingebetteten Tragelementen aus Stahl bekannt. Zur Schwenkanlenkung der Profilleiste ist entweder unmittelbar an dieser ein Schwenkgelenk angeordnet, oder die Profilleiste ist mit einem an dieser befestigten Haltearm verbunden. Durch auf an der Profilleiste angeordnete Schwenklagerelemente und/oder Halte- und Tragarme ausgeübte Kräfte treten an der Profilleiste, die an sich aus einem elastischen Kunststoffmaterial bestehen soll, unerwünschte Deformationen und das Material der Profilleiste nachteilig beanspruchende Kräfte auf. Insbesondere bei der Handhabung von sich besonders lang, über mehrere Meter erstreckenden Profilleisten führen Deformationen des Profilleistenmaterials zu unbefriedigend bleibenden Rakelgeräten. Bei Wahl eines besonders harten Kunststoffmaterials ergeben sich Fehlanpassungen zwischen der Profilleiste und der in diese eingebetteten Stahlleiste.From DE-GM 87 13 789.5, EP-A1-0 311 728 and EP-A1-0 311 730 doctor blade profiles with steel support elements embedded in them are known. To pivot the profile bar either a swivel joint is arranged directly on this, or the profile bar is with one this attached holding arm connected. Forces exerted on pivot bearing elements and / or holding and support arms arranged on the profile strip cause undesirable deformations and forces which disadvantageously stress the profile strip material on the profile strip, which is to be made of an elastic plastic material. Particularly when handling particularly long profile strips which extend over several meters, deformations of the profile strip material lead to doctor blades which remain unsatisfactory. Choosing a particularly hard plastic material results in mismatches between the profile strip and the steel strip embedded in it.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Rakelgerät mit einer eine Kernleiste einbettenden Profilleiste zu schaffen, die von an der Profilleiste bei deren Handhabung und/oder deren Betrieb angreifenden, zu unerwünschten Deformationen führenden Kräften befreit sein soll und die zur Bestückung mit einer Roll- oder Rundrakel besonders gut geeignet sein soll.The invention has for its object to provide a doctor blade device with a core strip embedding profile strip, which is to be freed from forces acting on the profile strip during its handling and / or its operation, which leads to undesirable deformations and which can be equipped with a roller or Round doctor blade should be particularly well suited.

Diese Aufgabe wird in Verbindung mit den Merkmalen des eingangs genannten Rakelgeräts dadurch gelöst, dass die Rakel unverlierbar in das Kunststoffmaterial der Profilleiste eingefasst ist, dass zwischen der Kernleiste und einer Oberfläche der Kunststoffprofilleiste in dieser wenigstens eine durchgehende Öffnung in Form eines Schlitzes od. dgl. ausgebildet ist und dass die Kernleiste durch die Öffnung hindurch unmittelbar mit einem Haltearm verbunden ist. Durch die Verbindung des Haltearms unmittelbar mit der aus Stahl oder einem ähnlichen Material bestehenden Kernleiste bleibt das durch die Profilleiste gebildete Mantelmaterial des Rakelgeräts von unerwünschten Deformationen befreit. Die unmittelbare Verbindung des Haltearms mit der Kernleiste bildet eine strapazierfähige Verbindung, ohne dass die einstückige Profilleiste beschädigt wird. Die Kernleiste bildet eine Art Rückgrat, wobei die Kunststoffprofilleiste diese besonders materialsteife Kernleiste einbettet und sie erfindungsgemäss zudem mit einer Streichrakel, einer Roll- oder Rundrakel verbindet. Dabei ist eine Roll- oder Rundrakel in das "Materialfleisch" der Profilleiste eingefasst. Da sich die Kernleiste im Bereich der Rakel erstreckt, ist die die Rakel teilweise umfassende, sie unverlierbar haltende Einfassung von letztere beschädigenden Deformationen befreit, und zwar auch dann, wenn das Profilleistenmaterial aus einem besonders flexiblen biegeelastischen und zur Ausübung einer Rollrakelfunktion besonders hochgleitfähigen polymeren Kunststoff besteht. Insbesondere werden aber dadurch, dass das Profilleistenmaterial durch Schwenklager-, Halte- oder sonstige Lagerkräfte unbeeinflusst bleibt, Deformationen der Rakeleinfassung bzw. an deren Rändern zuverlässig vermieden, so dass die Rakel unverlierbar in der Aufnahme gehalten bleibt. Im ganzen ist ein besonders strapazierfähiges, eine besonders hohe Lebensdauer aufweisendes Rakelgerät erreicht.This object is achieved in connection with the features of the doctor device mentioned at the outset in that the doctor is captively encased in the plastic material of the profile strip, or between the core strip and a surface of the plastic profile strip in this at least one through opening in the form of a slot or the like. is formed and that the core strip is connected through the opening directly to a holding arm. By connecting the holding arm directly to the core bar made of steel or a similar material, the jacket material of the doctoring device formed by the profile bar remains free of undesired deformations. The direct connection of the holding arm to the core strip forms a durable connection without the one-piece profile strip being damaged. The core bar forms a kind Backbone, the plastic profile strip embedding this particularly rigid core strip and, according to the invention, also connecting it with a doctor blade, a roller blade or a circular blade. A roller or circular squeegee is enclosed in the "material flesh" of the profile strip. Since the core strip extends in the area of the squeegee, the enclosure, which partially encompasses the squeegee and keeps it captive, is freed from deformations damaging the latter, even if the profile strip material consists of a particularly flexible, flexible, plastic polymer material which is particularly highly slidable to perform a squeegee function . In particular, however, the fact that the profile strip material remains uninfluenced by swivel bearing, holding or other bearing forces reliably prevents deformation of the doctor blade casing or on its edges, so that the doctor blade remains captively held in the receptacle. Overall, a particularly hard-wearing doctor blade device with a particularly long service life is achieved.

Je nach Anwendungsfall ist es zweckmässig, den die Öffnung durchgreifenden Halte- oder Tragarm starr mit der Kernleiste zu verbinden oder das Armende gelenkig an die Kernleiste anzuschliessen. Ein solches Schwenklager, das vorzugsweise als Schwenk-Schiebegelenk ausgeführt ist, liegt innerhalb der Öffnung, ist also in dieser versenkt, so dass an der Profilleistenoberfläche keine Schwenklagerungsteile hervorstehen.Depending on the application, it is expedient to rigidly connect the holding or support arm passing through the opening to the core bar or to connect the arm end to the core bar in an articulated manner. Such a swivel bearing, which is preferably designed as a swivel-slide joint, lies within the opening, so is countersunk in it, so that no swivel mounting parts protrude from the profile strip surface.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, dass der Haltearm in Form eines Streifenelements mit einer zu der Rakelgerät-Längsachse parallelen Erstreckung ausgebildet sein kann. Bei Schwenkanlenkung des Arms ist eine besonders stabile scharnierartige Schwenkverbindung erreicht.It is particularly advantageous that the holding arm can be designed in the form of a strip element with an extension parallel to the longitudinal axis of the doctor device. When the arm is pivoted, a particularly stable hinge-like pivot connection is achieved.

Eine besondere erfindungsgemässe Ausführungsform besteht darin, dass die Kunststoffprofilleiste mit einer den Haltearm tragenden Halterung des Rakelgeräts über ein gegenüber einer festen Endlänge frei verkürzbares Element wie insbesondere ein mit einer bestimmten Länge versehenes Streifenband verbunden ist, und zwar derart, dass beim Abheben des Rakelgeräts von einer Arbeitsfläche eine nach unten gerichtete Kipp/Schwenkbewegung der Profilleiste durch das dann straffe Band begrenzt ist. Insbesondere bei mit Rundschablonen bestückten Druckmaschinen ist dadurch vermieden, dass die im Druckmaschinen-Stillstand von der Arbeitsfläche nach oben wegbewegte Profilleiste in die ebenfalls abgehobene, sich weiterdrehende Schablone kippt und diese beschädigt.A special embodiment according to the invention consists in that the plastic profile strip with a holder of the squeegee device, which supports the holding arm, is positioned opposite one another fixed final length freely shortenable element such as in particular a strip length provided with a certain length is connected in such a way that when the squeegee device is lifted off a work surface, a downward tilting / pivoting movement of the profile strip is limited by the then tight band. In particular in the case of printing machines equipped with circular templates, this avoids that the profile bar, which is moved upward away from the work surface when the printing machine is at a standstill, tilts into the likewise raised, rotating template and damages it.

Wie aus den Figuren ersichtlich, umfasst jedes erfindungsgemässe Rakelgerät 1 eine aus biegeelastischem und hochgleitfähigem Kunststoff bestehende einstückige Profilleiste 2, die sich in nicht dargestellter Längsansicht über die Arbeitsbreite einer Arbeitsfläche 7 erstreckt. In üblicher Weise ist die Profilleiste 2 mit Profilflächen 22, 23 versehen, die vor einem Rakelelement in Form einer Rollrakel 6 in Abhängigkeit von der Rakelgerät-Schwenklage um eine zu der Rakelgerät-Längsachse parallele Achse die Grösse eines Stauraums oder eines Spalts für eine durch eine Rundschablone 8 auf die Arbeitsfläche 7 aufzubringende Substanz bilden.As can be seen from the figures, each squeegee device 1 according to the invention comprises a one-piece profile strip 2 consisting of flexible and highly slidable plastic, which extends in a longitudinal view (not shown) over the working width a work surface 7 extends. In the usual way, the profile bar 2 is provided with profile surfaces 22, 23, which in front of a doctor element in the form of a doctor blade 6, depending on the doctor device pivoting position about an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the doctor device, the size of a storage space or a gap for a Form circular template 8 on the work surface 7 substance to be applied.

In jede Kunststoffprofilleiste ist eine von dieser vollständig umfasste Kernleiste 4 aus einem gegenüber dem Kunststoffmaterial steifen Material wie Stahl od. dgl. eingebettet. Zwischen der oberen Fläche 21 und der Kernleiste 4 ist eine durchgehende Öffnung in Form eines Schlitzes 3 eingearbeitet, wie dies insbesondere auch aus den Fig. 3 und 4 ersichtlich ist. Die Schlitze erstrecken sich in ihrer Längserstreckung parallel mit der Kernleiste 4.A core strip 4 of a material such as steel or the like which is rigid with respect to the plastic material is completely embedded in each plastic profile strip. A continuous opening in the form of a slot 3 is incorporated between the upper surface 21 and the core strip 4, as can be seen in particular from FIGS. 3 and 4. In its longitudinal extent, the slots extend parallel to the core strip 4.

Wie aus Fig. 1 und 2 bzw. Fig. 3 und 4 ersichtlich, durchgreift ein starr mit der Kernleiste 4 verbundener, insbesondere aus einem Stahlmaterial bestehender Haltearm 5 den Schlitz 3. Dabei ist der ausserhalb der Profilleiste 2 sich erstreckende Haltearmteil an seinem freien Ende mit einem Schwenkgelenkteil in Form einer Kugel oder eines kreiszylinder-förmigen Elements versehen, so dass er insbesondere frei schwenkbar mit einer nicht dargestellten Schwenklagerung verbindbar ist. Selbstverständlich kann der Haltearm auch starr mit Tragteilen wie einer Halteleiste, einem Tragholm od. dgl. in einer Rakeleinrichtung verbindbar oder verbunden sein. Das Rakelgerät bzw. die Profilleiste befindet sich dann während des Rakelbetriebs in einer festen unveränderbaren Neigungslage.1 and 2 or FIGS. 3 and 4, a holding arm 5 rigidly connected to the core strip 4, in particular made of a steel material, extends through the slot 3. The holding arm part which extends outside the profiled strip 2 is at its free end provided with a swivel joint part in the form of a ball or a circular-cylindrical element, so that it can in particular be freely pivotably connected to a swivel bearing (not shown). Of course, the holding arm can also be rigidly connected or connected to supporting parts such as a holding bar, a supporting bar or the like in a doctor device. The squeegee or profile bar is then in a fixed, unchangeable inclination position during squeegee operation.

Gemäss Fig. 1 und 3 ist der Haltearm 5 im Querschnitt A-B streifenförmig ausgebildet. Der Arm besteht also aus einem flachen, sich im Streifenquerschnitt parallel zu der Kernleiste 4 erstreckenden Element, das den Schlitz 3 durchgreift.1 and 3, the holding arm 5 is of strip-shaped design in cross section AB. The arm thus consists of a flat element which extends in the strip cross section parallel to the core strip 4 and which extends through the slot 3.

Nach der Ausführungsform gemäss Fig. 2 und 4 sind vier stabförmige Haltearme 5 vorgesehen, die den Schlitz 3 durchgreifen und fest mit der Kernleiste 4 verbunden sind.According to the embodiment according to FIGS. 2 and 4, four rod-shaped holding arms 5 are provided which pass through the slot 3 and are firmly connected to the core strip 4.

Wie aus Fig. 5 und 6 ersichtlich, ist bei einem anderen erfindungsgemässen Rakelgerät 1 die Kernleiste 4 starr mit einem Gelenkelement 31 verbunden, das sich in der gezeigten Querschnittsdarstellung in dem Schlitz 3 erstreckt, also in diesem versenkt angeordet ist. Das aus Stahl bestehende Gelenkteil 31 weist eine in Druchgangsrichtung des Schlitzes 3 sich erstreckende Ausnehmung auf, in die ein kreiszylinderförmiger Ansatz 32 eines Haltearmes 5 eingreift, so dass die Gelenkteile 31 und 32 ein die Kernleiste 4 anlenkendes Schwenk-/Schiebegelenk 30 bilden. Mit seinem anderen Ende ist der Haltearm 5 fest an einer oberhalb der Profilleiste 2 angeordneten Lagerung oder Halteleiste 50 befestigt.As can be seen from FIGS. 5 and 6, in another squeegee device 1 according to the invention, the core strip 4 is rigidly connected to a joint element 31 which, in the cross-sectional illustration shown, extends in the slot 3, that is to say is arranged recessed therein. The joint part 31 made of steel has a recess extending in the direction of passage of the slot 3, into which a circular cylindrical extension 32 of a holding arm 5 engages, so that the joint parts 31 and 32 form a swivel / slide joint 30 which articulates the core strip 4. With its other end, the holding arm 5 is fixedly attached to a bearing or holding strip 50 arranged above the profiled strip 2.

Aus Fig. 5 ist ersichtlich, dass die Profilleiste 2 beim Absenken der Halterung 50 rechtsherum schwenkt. Bei Vergrösserung des Abstandes der Lagerung 50 gegenüber der Arbeitsfläche 7 schwenkt die Profilleiste linksherum. Um dabei beim Abheben der Profilleiste von einer Schablone 8 eine Beschädigung letzterer zu vermeiden, ist an dem abkippenden Teil der Profilleiste 2 an deren Oberfläche 21 ein Band 9 befestigt, das mit seinem anderen Ende an der Halterung 50 festgelegt ist. Die einknickbare Länge des Bandes 9 ist so bemessen, dass die Profilleiste 2 beim Abheben von der Arbeitsfläche 7 bzw. der Schablone 8 in der in Fig. 6 dargestellten Schwenk/Kipposition mit gestrafftem Band 9 gehalten bleibt.5 that the profile strip 2 pivots to the right when the holder 50 is lowered. When increasing the distance between the bearing 50 and the work surface 7, the profile bar swings to the left. In order to avoid damage to the latter when lifting the profile strip from a template 8, a band 9 is fastened to the surface 21 of the tilting part of the profile strip 2 and is fixed at its other end to the holder 50. The foldable length of the band 9 is dimensioned such that the profiled strip 2 is held with the band 9 tightened when it is lifted from the work surface 7 or the template 8 in the pivoting / tilting position shown in FIG.

Bei sämtlichen Ausführungsbeispielen ist die Kernleiste 4 im Bereich einer Rollrakel 6 in die Profilleiste 2 eingebettet, d.h., daß die Kernleiste 4 bezogen auf die Querschnittsdimension der Profilleiste 2 in einem relativ geringen Abstand zu dem Rakelelement 6 angeordnet ist. Jede Rollrakel 6 liegt in einer im Querschnitt abschnittsweise kreisförmigen, parallel zur Rakelgerät-Längsachse sich erstreckenden Ausnehmung, die die Rollrakel 6 mit ihren Rändern umfassend unverlierbar hält, wobei die Rollrakel 6 während des Rakelbetriebs frei an dem hochgleitfähigen Kunststoffmaterial der Profilleiste 2 gleitend in der Halteausnehmung dreht. Durch die Erfindung ist erreicht, dass das Material der Profilleiste 2 aus einem flexiblen, biegeelastischen und hochgleitfähigen polymeren Kunststoff besteht, der besonders abrieb- und verschleissfest sowie chemisch besonders widerstandsfähig ist.In all of the exemplary embodiments, the core strip 4 is embedded in the profile strip 2 in the region of a roller doctor blade 6, that is to say that the core strip 4 is arranged at a relatively small distance from the doctor blade element 6 in relation to the cross-sectional dimension of the profile strip 2. Each squeegee 6 lies in a cross-sectionally circular recess extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the squeegee device, which holds the roller squeegee 6 with its edges in a captive manner, the roller squeegee 6 rotating freely during the squeegee operation on the highly slidable plastic material of the profile strip 2 in the holding recess. It is achieved by the invention that the material of the profile strip 2 consists of a flexible, flexible and highly slidable polymeric plastic which is particularly resistant to abrasion and wear and is particularly chemically resistant.
