Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and a device for detecting, in a machine, the position of coming into contact of two parts, at least one of which is movable, as a whole, relative to the other, a first of these parts or driving part which can be set in motion while the second part or receiving part is mounted idly on its support, applicable more particularly but not exclusively to parallel cylinders of a rotary printer.
  • a sheet of material to be printed travels at constant speed between two parallel cylinders, tangent to each other, namely a blanket cylinder and a counterpart cylinder.
  • the counter cylinder is made of a material which can be hard or flexible, while the surface layer which constitutes the blanket proper, is made of flexible material.
  • the two cylinders are applied under pressure against each other so that the layer of flexible material of the blanket cylinder is crushed in its zone of contact with the counterpart cylinder, the importance of this crushing depending on the pressure exerted by the counter cylinder on the blanket cylinder.
  • the flexible surface layer of the blanket cylinder be crushed by a predetermined known value.
  • This predetermined crushing value it is therefore necessary to determine beforehand the position of simple contact, without pressure, between the counter cylinder and the blanket cylinder with flexible surface layer, with the sheet of material pinched between them.
  • This single contact position also called the "zero" position, which varies as a function of the thickness of the ply, serves as a starting point for the additional stroke of the counterpart cylinder, the stroke the value is predetermined and gives, as a result of the crushing of the flexible surface layer of the blanket cylinder, the desired pressure between the two cylinders with the sheet to be printed passing between them.
  • this reference position or "zero" position has been determined empirically, for each ply thickness, by the machine operator. To do this, the operator rotates the blanket cylinder, then moved away from the counterpart cylinder, and engages between the two cylinders a piece of the tablecloth to be printed or of a material having the same thickness, then it brings the counterpart cylinder closer to the cylinder. blanket, until contact is established.
  • the instant of this simple contact, without pressure, is determined at the moment when the piece of ply which is then itself in contact with the peripheral surfaces of the two cylinders, is driven as a result of its pinching between the two cylinders. It then suffices for the operator to locate this "zero" position and to take it as a starting base for the subsequent pressure setting, resulting in the predetermined crushing of the peripheral layer of the blanket cylinder.
  • the present invention aims to remedy this drawback by providing a device for automatically detecting this "zero" position.
  • this method of detecting, in a machine, the contact position of two parts, at least one of which is movable, as a whole, relative to the other, a first of these parts or driving part being able to be set in motion while the second part or receiving part is mounted idly on its support is characterized in that the driving part is put in movement while leaving the receiving part immobile, a relative movement of the two driving and receiving parts is carried out until they come into contact, the start of the movement of the receiving part, initially stationary, which results from its coming into contact with the moving driving part, is noted, and the positions occupied by the two driving and receiving parts are then recorded, at the moment when the previously immobile receiving part begins to be set in motion, as defining the contact position of the two parts.
  • the invention also relates to a device for implementing the above-mentioned detection method, this device being characterized in that it comprises a motion detection device associated with the receiving part mounted idle, this device comprising a sensor movement emitting a signal from the start of movement of the receiving part, means for locating the instantaneous position of the moving part and a signal processing circuit to which the means for locating the moving part and the sensor are connected so as to record, in a circuit memory, the position reached by the moving part at the moment when the receiving part, previously stationary on its support, just begins to be set in motion relative to its support as a result of its coming into contact with the driving part.
  • FIG. 1 A description will be given below, with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3 of the drawing, of an application of the detection method and device according to the invention to a rotary offset printing machine of which only the lower part is shown in FIG. 1.
  • This printing machine comprises two parallel horizontal cylinders arranged one above the other, namely an upper blanket cylinder 1 and a lower counter cylinder 2, cylinders between which passes a sheet of printing material 3.
  • the upper blanket cylinder 1 is integral with 'A shaft 4 which extends transversely (relative to the web 3) between two fixed bearings 5 carried by the uprights of the frame 6 of the printer.
  • the blanket cylinder 1 comprises, in the usual manner, a surface layer of flexible material.
  • the lower counterpart cylinder 2 is mounted on the frame 6 of the printer so that it can be moved vertically.
  • the counterpart cylinder 2, made of flexible or hard material, is integral with a support shaft 7 transverse to the ply 3.
  • the two opposite ends of the shaft 7 of the counterpart cylinder 2 are carried by respective bearings 8, 9 which can be moved vertically on the frame 6 of the printer, independently of each other, under the control of respective individual position adjustment mechanisms 11,12.
  • These mechanisms can be of any known type, for example with rotary screw and nut.
  • Each of these mechanisms provides a signal indicating the actual position of the bearing 8, 9 with which it is associated.
  • These position signals are applied respectively, by conductors 13, to a circuit 14 for processing the signals.
  • This circuit 14 includes in particular a memory for storing signals representing the effective positions of the movable bearings 8, 9.
  • a rotation detection device 15 is associated with the lower counterpart cylinder 2.
  • This device 15 which can be of any suitable type, for example photoelectric, inductive, etc., comprises a fixed sensor 16 disposed near the cylinder. 2, for example facing marks or marks 17 provided on a front face of the cylinder 2 or on an extreme part of its lateral surface.
  • the sensor 16 and the pins 17 are arranged, with respect to each other, in such a way that the start of the rotation drive of the lower counterpart cylinder 2 results in the emission of a signal which is then applied, by through a conductor 18, to the signal processing circuit 14.
  • the detection device makes it possible to determine the reference position or "zero" position of the two cylinders 1 and 2, in which they happen to be just in contact, without applying pressure, with the sheet of material to be printed 3 taken between them two.
  • the various constituent elements occupy the positions shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 and the two blanket 1 and counterpart 2 cylinders are separated from each other, the counterpart cylinder 2 being in the low position.
  • the operator controls the rotation of the single upper blanket cylinder 1 then constituting a "driving part", at low speed, as shown in FIG. 2, while the lower counterpart cylinder 2, constituting a madly mounted "receiving part", is kept stationary around its axis.
  • the operator lowers, by means of the adjustment mechanism 11, the left bearing 8 and the left part of the shaft 7 to their starting position. It then proceeds in the same way in the right part of the machine, causing the right bearing 9 to rise, until the "zero" position is also reached there and the corresponding signal is transmitted from the sensor. 16, to circuit 14, and then lowering this level.
  • the memory circuit 14 contains data corresponding to the "zero" position obtained in the left and right parts of the machine. It then suffices for the operator to simultaneously raise the two left 8 and right 9 bearings until the predetermined "zero" positions are reached in the manner described above. It is then certain that the axes of the two cylinders 1 and 2 are perfectly parallel to each other. A third phase of adjustment can take place in causing the right and left side of the counterpart cylinder 2 to rise simultaneously, after having adjusted the parallelism of the axes using the information already obtained. At this instant the sheet of material to be printed 3 is found to be just in contact with the surfaces of the two cylinders 1 and 2, without being subjected to a pressure. After that the operator commands an additional simultaneous movement, upwards, of the two bearings 8 and 9, and this over the same distance, to obtain a predetermined known value of the crushing of the flexible surface layer of the blanket cylinder 1 corresponding to a good quality print.
  • the lower cylinder 2 (part receiving the movement) which alone is mounted vertically movable relative to the upper cylinder 1 (driving part) mounted fixed on the frame of the machine.
  • the reverse arrangement could also be envisaged, the detection of the "zero" position, then taking place on the vertically movable upper cylinder, moving in the direction of the lower cylinder kept fixed on the frame of the machine.
  • the device for detecting the "zero" position according to the invention could also be used with a machine in which the cylinders are both mounted on the frame of the machine.
  • the device for detecting the contact position of the two cylinders and the method of parallelizing the axes of the two cylinders can be used both in the case where a ply passes between the two cylinders and in the case where such a ply is absent, the two cylinders then being directly tangent to one another.
