Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung zum Leiten eines Bedruckstoffs mittels Düsen und ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer solchen Vorrichtung.The present invention relates to a device for conveying a printing material by means of nozzles and a method for producing such a device.

Der typische Einsatzbereich derartiger Vorrichtungen sind Bogendruckmaschinen, so auch gemäß der DE 40 14 830 A1 , DE 195 45 799 C1 und DE 199 05 095 C2 . Oftmals folgt die Anordnung und Ausrichtung der Düsen einem hochkomplizierten Muster, wie es zum Beispiel auch gemäß der US 5,803,448 der Fall ist. Um auch in solchen Fällen die Düsen ökonomisch zu fertigen, können letztere aus rotationssymmetrischen Teilen hergestellt werden, wie dies in der DE 44 27 448 A1 beschrieben ist. Es gibt auch Bogenleitvorrichtungen mit etwas weniger komplizierten Düsenmustern, siehe hierzu z. B. die DE 100 57 570 A1 .The typical application of such devices are sheet-fed presses, as well as in accordance with DE 40 14 830 A1 . DE 195 45 799 C1 and DE 199 05 095 C2 , Often the arrangement and orientation of the nozzles follows a highly complicated pattern, as for example according to the US 5,803,448 the case is. In order to manufacture the nozzles economically in such cases, the latter can be made of rotationally symmetric parts, as shown in the DE 44 27 448 A1 is described. There are also sheet guiding with somewhat less complicated nozzle patterns, see z. B. the DE 100 57 570 A1 ,

Davon ausgehend liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung mit besonders unkomplizierten aber trotzdem hochwirksamen Düsen zu schaffen und ein Verfahren anzugeben, das eine unaufwendige Herstellung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ermöglicht.Based on this, the present invention seeks to provide a Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung with particularly uncomplicated, yet highly effective nozzles and to provide a method that allows an inexpensive production of the device according to the invention.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 und ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 14 gelöst. Zur Erfindung gehört weiterhin eine Maschine mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 18.This object is achieved by a device having the features of claim 1 and a method having the features of claim 14. The invention further includes a machine having the features of claim 18.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung zum Leiten eines Bedruckstoffs mittels Düsen ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass Zungen der Düsen durch mindestens eine im wesentlichen kammförmige Kontur begrenzt sind.The device according to the invention for conducting a printing material by means of nozzles is characterized in that tongues of the nozzles are delimited by at least one substantially comb-shaped contour.

Diese Kontur kann eine Innen- oder Außenkontur sein. Für eine solche kammförmige Kontur ist es typisch, dass sie Zinken und zwischen den Zinken befindliche Lücken aufweist. Die Zungen der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung bilden also die Zinken der kammförmigen Kontur. Die Zungen bilden luftströmungs-leitende Flächen der Düsen und bestimmen die Wirkungsrichtungen der Düsen.This contour can be an inner or outer contour. For such a comb-shaped contour, it is typical that it has tines and gaps between the tines. The tongues of the device according to the invention thus form the tines of comb-shaped contour. The tongues form airflow-guiding surfaces of the nozzles and determine the directions of action of the nozzles.

Die nachfolgend im Einzelnen erläuterten Weiterbildungen der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung sind in verschiedener Hinsicht vorteilhaft.The refinements of the device according to the invention explained in detail below are advantageous in various respects.

Bei einer in fertigungstechnischer Hinsicht vorteilhaften Weiterbildung sind die Zungen an im Wesentlichen kammförmig konturierten Stücken ausgebildet, die zusammengesetzt sind, wobei die Stücke plattenförmig oder schalenförmig sein können. Die Stücke können zum Beispiel zwei oder mehr zusammen eine Leitfläche der Vorrichtung bildende Blechplatten oder Blechschalen sein.In a development that is advantageous in terms of manufacturing technology, the tongues are formed on pieces which are essentially comb-shaped and which are composed, the pieces being able to be plate-shaped or cup-shaped. The pieces may be, for example, two or more metal plates or sheet metal shells forming a guide surface of the device together.

Ebenfalls in fertigungstechnischer Hinsicht vorteilhaft ist eine Weiterbildung, bei welcher die Zungen entlang einer im Wesentlichen mäanderförmig verlaufenden Schneidlinie vorzugsweise beiderseits dieser Schneidlinie angeordnet sind. Die Mäanderform der Schneidlinie ist aus einer Blickrichtung ersichtlich, die lotrecht relativ zu der Leitfläche, in der die Düsen münden, ist. Die Zungen werden also bei ihrer Herstellung entlang der Mäanderlinie zum Beispiel mittels eines Bearbeitungsstrahles zugeschnitten. Die Mäanderlinie, entlang welcher der Bearbeitungsstrahl oder stattdessen ein anderes Schneidwerkzeug bei der Herstellung geführt wird, kann eine Zick-Zack-Linie oder eine einer Rechteck-, Trapez- oder Sinusschwingung entsprechende Wellenlinie sein. Der Bearbeitungsstrahl ist vorzugsweise ein Laserstrahl, wobei die Schneidlinie eine Laser-Schneidlinie ist.Also advantageous in terms of production engineering is a further development in which the tongues are arranged along a cutting line extending essentially in a meandering manner, preferably on both sides of this cutting line. The meandering shape of the cutting line can be seen from a line of sight that is perpendicular relative to the guide surface in which the nozzles open. The tongues are therefore cut during their production along the meander line, for example by means of a processing beam. The meander line along which the machining beam or, alternatively, another cutting tool is guided during manufacture may be a zigzag line or a wavy line corresponding to a rectangular, trapezoidal or sinusoidal vibration. The machining beam is preferably a laser beam, the cutting line being a laser cutting line.

Der Bedruckstoff kann bogen- oder bahnförmig sein. Die aus den nachfolgend erläuterten Weiterbildungen resultierenden funktionellen Vorteile kommen jedoch in besonders starken Maße zum Tragen, wenn der Bedruckstoff ein Bedruckstoffbogen und die Bedruckstoffleiteinrichtung demzufolge eine Bogenleiteinrichtung ist. Bedruckstoffbogen stellen nämlich besonders hohe Anforderungen an den Bedruckstoff pneumatisch leitende Bedruckstoffleiteinrichtungen.The printing material may be curved or web-shaped. However, the functional advantages resulting from the refinements explained below are particularly pronounced if the printing substrate is a printing material sheet and the printing material guiding device is accordingly a sheet guiding device. In fact, printing material sheets place particularly high demands on the substrate for pneumatically conductive printing material guide devices.

Die Düsen können Blasdüsen sein, welche im Wesentlichen zu Seitenrändern des Bedruckstoffs hin ausgerichtete Blasrichtungen aufweisen. Vorzugsweise liegen die Düsen im Wesentlichen auf einer gemeinsamen Fluchtlinie, wobei die Düsen eine Düsenreihe bilden. Die Blasrichtungen können alternierend sein, so dass jeweils zwei innerhalb der Düsenreihe benachbarte bzw. aufeinander folgende Düsen im Wesentlichen zueinander entgegengesetzt ausgerichtet sind. Vorzugsweise sind die Blasrichtungen der Düsen senkrecht zu relativ einer Transportrichtung des Bedruckstoffs ausgerichtet. Die erwähnte Fluchtlinie verläuft vorzugsweise bezüglich des Bedruckstoffs im Wesentlichen mittig, z. B. in der Mitte der Bogenbreite.The nozzles may be tuyeres which have blowing directions directed substantially towards side edges of the printing material. Preferably, the nozzles lie substantially on a common alignment line, wherein the nozzles form a row of nozzles. The blowing directions can be alternating, so that in each case two nozzles adjacent or following one another within the nozzle row are aligned substantially opposite to one another. Preferably, the blowing directions of the nozzles are aligned perpendicular to a transport direction of the printing material. The mentioned alignment line is preferably substantially centered with respect to the printing material, z. B. in the middle of the sheet width.

Gemäß einer weiteren Weiterbildung sind die Zungen relativ zu der bereits erwähnten Leitfläche flachwinklig geneigt, z. B. so, dass jede der Blasrichtungen zusammen mit der Leitfläche einen spitzen Winkel einschließt. Dabei sind die Zungen vorzugsweise alternierend geneigt, so dass jede der Zungen zu einem anderen Bedruckstoffseitenrand als die dieser Zunge innerhalb der Düsenreihe benachbarte Zunge geneigt ist.According to a further embodiment, the tongues are inclined at a slight angle relative to the already mentioned guide surface, z. B. such that each of the blowing directions together with the guide surface forms an acute angle. In this case, the tongues are preferably inclined in an alternating manner, so that each of the tongues is inclined to a printing substrate side edge other than that tongue adjacent to this tongue within the nozzle row.

Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren zur Herstellung einer Düsen aufweisenden Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass Zungen der Düsen gebildet werden, indem mindestens ein Werkstück mit einer Kammkontur versehen wird. Unter dieser Kammkontur wird eine im Wesentlichen mäanderförmig verlaufende und die Zungen begrenzende Umrisslinie verstanden. Das erfindungsgemäße Herstellungsverfahren ist besonders effizient, weil es die Herstellung einer vergleichsweise großen Düsenanzahl in vergleichsweise wenigen Bearbeitungsschritten ermöglicht.The method according to the invention for producing a printing material guide device having nozzles is characterized in that tongues of the nozzles are formed by providing at least one workpiece with a comb contour. Under this comb contour is understood to mean a substantially meandering and the tongues delimiting outline. The production method according to the invention is particularly efficient because it enables the production of a comparatively large number of nozzles in comparatively few processing steps.

Bei einer hinsichtlich einer einstückigen Ausbildung der Leitfläche vorteilhaften Weiterbildung des erfindungsgemäßen Herstellungsverfahrens werden die Zungen der Düsen gebildet, indem das später die Leitfläche bildende Werkstück mit einem im Wesentlichen mäanderförmigen Einschnitt versehen wird. Dabei wird das Werkstück nicht durchgeschnitten bzw. nicht in zwei Teile zertrennt. Das Werkstück kann z. B. eine aus Stahlblech oder einem anderen geeigneten Material bestehende Platte sein. Mit dem Einschnitt oder jedem solchem Einschnitt, der in das Werkstück z. B. per Laserstrahl eingebracht wird, werden gleichzeitig mehrere Düsen hergestellt. Es ist vorteilhafterweise nicht für jede einzelne Düse ein anderer, eigener Einschnitt erforderlich.In a development of the production method according to the invention that is advantageous with regard to a one-piece design of the guide surface, the tongues of the nozzles are formed by providing the workpiece, which later forms the guide surface, with a substantially meandering cut. The workpiece is not cut through or divided into two parts. The workpiece can, for. B. be made of sheet steel or other suitable material plate. With the incision or any such incision in the workpiece z. B. by laser beam is introduced, several nozzles are produced simultaneously. It is advantageously not necessary for each individual nozzle another, separate incision.

Bei einer anderen Weiterbildung des Verfahrens, die hinsichtlich einer mehrstückigen und z. B. zweistückigen Ausbildung der Leitfläche vorteilhaft ist, werden die Zungen der Düsen gebildet, indem ein weiteres Werkstück mit einer Kammkontur versehen wird und danach die Werkstücke derart zusammen gesetzt werden, dass die eine Kammkontur der anderen Kammkontur zugewandt ist. Beispielsweise können die beiden Werkstücke Platten sein, deren Plattenränder in einem ersten Schritt, z. B. per Laserbeschnitt, kammförmig konturiert werden und in einem darauffolgenden zweiten Schritt derart in gegenseitigen Eingriff gebracht werden, dass jeweils die Zungen bzw. Zinken der einen Kammkontur in die Lücken der anderen Kammkontur eingreifen. Zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Schritt können die Platten zu Schalen gebogen werden. Dieser Zwischenschritt kann notwendig sein, wenn die Leitfläche nicht plan sondern eindimensional gekrümmt sein soll. Ein weiterer Verfahrensschritt beinhaltet, dass die Zungen der Düsen abgekantet bzw. gebogen und dadurch (relativ zu der Leitfläche) geneigt werden. Dieser Verfahrensschritt kann bei einer aus einem einzigen Werkstück erfolgenden Fertigung der Leitfläche nach dem mäanderförmigen Einschneiden in dieses Werkstück erfolgen und kann anderenfalls bei dem Zusammensetzen der Leitfläche aus mehreren Werkstücken dem genannten zweiten Schritt nachfolgend oder vorzugsweise vorhergehend durchgeführt werden.In another development of the method, with respect to a multi-piece and z. B. two-piece design of the guide surface is advantageous, the tongues of the nozzles are formed by another workpiece is provided with a comb contour and then the workpieces are set together so that the one comb contour of the other comb contour faces. For example, the two workpieces may be plates whose plate edges in a first step, for. B. by laser cut, comb-shaped and are brought in a subsequent second step in such a mutual engagement that each engage the tongues or tines of a comb contour in the gaps of the other comb contour. Between the first and second steps, the plates can be bent into trays. This intermediate step may be necessary if the guide surface should not be flat but one-dimensionally curved. A further method step involves that the tongues of the nozzles are bent or bent and thereby inclined (relative to the guide surface). This process step can take place in the case of a manufacture of the guide surface from a single workpiece according to the meandering cutting into this workpiece and can otherwise be carried out following the said second step in the assembly of the guide surface from a plurality of workpieces.

In den Schutzbereich der vorliegenden Erfindung fällt auch eine Maschine zur Verarbeitung von Bedruckstoff, welche Maschine eine Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung umfasst, die der vorliegenden Erfindung gemäß ausgebildet oder hergestellt ist. Diese Maschine ist vorzugsweise eine Druckmaschine und könnte stattdessen auch eine Bedruckstoffweiterverarbeitungs-Maschine sein. Vorzugsweise handelt es sich bei dieser Maschine um eine Bogenverarbeitungsmaschine, z. B. eine Bogendruckmaschine.Also within the scope of the present invention is a machine for processing substrate, which machine comprises a substrate guide constructed or manufactured according to the present invention. This machine is preferably a printing press and could instead also be a substrate processing machine. Preferably, this machine is a sheet processing machine, e.g. B. a sheet-fed press.

Funktionell und konstruktiv vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung und Maschine und des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung bevorzugter Ausführungsbeispiele und der dazugehörigen Zeichnung.Functionally and structurally advantageous developments of the device and machine according to the invention and the method according to the invention will become apparent from the following description of preferred embodiments and the accompanying drawings.

In Figur 1 ist eine Maschine 1 zur Verarbeitung eines bogenförmigen Bedruckstoffs 2 dargestellt. Die Maschine 1 ist eine Druckmaschine und umfasst als Bedruckstofftransportvorrichtungen einen Kettenförderer 3 und eine Trommel 4. Den beiden Bedruckstofftransportvorrichtungen sind eine erste Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung 5 und eine zweite Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung 6 zugeordnet. Die erste Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung 5 hat eine plane Leitfläche 7 und ist unterhalb des Kettenförderers 3 angeordnet. Die zweite Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung 6 hat eine mit der Trommel 4 konzentrisch gekrümmte Leitfläche 8 und ist unterhalb der Trommel 4 angeordnet. Die Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtungen 5, 6 sind Blasluftkästen und dienen dazu, den an ihnen durch die Bedruckstofftransportvorrichtungen vorbei geschleppten Bedruckstoff 2 mittels auf den Leitflächen 7, 8 erzeugter Blasluftpolster zu leiten. Die Leitflächen 7, 8 sind dem Kettenförderer 3 bzw. der Trommel 4 zugewandt.In FIG. 1 a machine 1 for processing a sheet-shaped substrate 2 is shown. The machine 1 is a printing press and comprises as substrate transport devices a chain conveyor 3 and a drum 4. The two printing material transport devices are assigned a first printing material guide device 5 and a second printing material guide device 6. The first Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung 5 has a planar guide surface 7 and is arranged below the chain conveyor 3. The second Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung 6 has a concentrically curved with the drum 4 baffle 8 and is disposed below the drum 4. The Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtungen 5, 6 are Blasluftkästen and serve to guide the transported past them by the Bedruckstofftransportvorrichtungen passing material 2 by means of the guide surfaces 7, 8 generated Blasluftpolster. The guide surfaces 7, 8 are facing the chain conveyor 3 and the drum 4.

Aus den Figuren 2a bis 2c ist ersichtlich, dass die Leitfläche 7 aus einem ersten Stück 7.1 und einem zweiten Stück 7.2 zusammengesetzt ist. Die Stücke 7.1, 7.2 bestehen aus Blech und sind plattenförmig. Die Leitfläche 7 ist mit einer zentralen Düsenreihe 9 ausgestattet, die sich parallel zu einer Transportrichtung 10 des Bedruckstoffs 2 erstreckt. Das erste Stück 7.1 hat eine erste im Wesentlichen kammförmige Kontur, d. h. eine erste Kammkontur 11, und das zweite Stück 7.2 hat eine zweite Kammkontur 12. Die beiden Kammkonturen 11, 12 sind derart ineinander verschränkt, das Zungen 11.1 der ersten Kammkontur 11 in Lücken 12.2 der zweiten Kammkontur 12 eingreifen und Zungen 12.1 der zweiten Kammkontur 12 in Lücken 11.2 der ersten Kammkontur 11 eingreifen, wenn die Stücke 7.1, 7.2 betriebsbereit zusammengesetzt sind. Die Kammkonturen 11, 12 sind bei einem entlang einer mäanderförmigen Schneidlinie 13 erfolgenden Zerteilen einer Platte in die beiden Stücke 7.1, 7.2 hergestellt wurden. Die Mäanderform der Schneidlinie 13 ist am besten in Figur 2b erkennbar, der eine relativ zur Leitfläche 7 lotrechte Blickrichtung zugrunde liegt. Aus der Figur 2a, welcher eine der Transportrichtung 10 entsprechende Blickrichtung zugrunde liegt, ist ersichtlich, dass die Zungen 11.1, 12.1 unter einem weniger als 45 Grad betragenden Winkel α relativ zur Leitfläche 7 geneigt sind. Die Zungen 11.1, 12.1 sind quer zur Transportrichtung 10 und entlang der Düsenreihe 9 abwechselnd nach links und rechts geneigt und haben ihre Neigungen durch ein vor dem Zusammenbau der beiden Stücke 7.1, 7.2 und an Biegelinien 14 erfolgendes Abkanten erhalten. Jede der Biegelinien 14 befindet sich am Fuße der jeweiligen Zunge 11.1, 12.1. Die Zungen 11.1, 12.1 und Lücken 11.2, 12.2 bilden zusammen Düsen 15, deren Luftströmungen 16 zu Seitenrändern 17 (vgl. Figur 3) des Bedruckstoffs 2 hin gerichtet sind.From the FIGS. 2a to 2c it can be seen that the guide surface 7 is composed of a first piece 7.1 and a second piece 7.2. The pieces 7.1, 7.2 are made of sheet metal and are plate-shaped. The guide surface 7 is provided with a central nozzle row 9, which extends parallel to a transport direction 10 of the printing material 2. The first Piece 7.1 has a first substantially comb-shaped contour, ie, a first comb contour 11, and the second piece 7.2 has a second comb contour 12. The two comb contours 11, 12 are interlocked with each other, the tongues 11.1 of the first comb contour 11 in gaps 12.2 of the second Catch contour 12 engage and tongues 12.1 of the second comb contour 12 in gaps 11.2 of the first comb contour 11 engage when the pieces 7.1, 7.2 are assembled ready for use. The comb contours 11, 12 have been produced in a cutting along a meandering line 13 a plate in the two pieces 7.1, 7.2. The meander shape of the cutting line 13 is best in FIG. 2b recognizable, which is based on a relative to the guide surface 7 vertical viewing direction. From the FIG. 2a , which is based on a viewing direction corresponding to the transport direction 10, it can be seen that the tongues 11.1, 12.1 are inclined relative to the guide surface 7 at an angle of less than 45 degrees. The tongues 11.1, 12.1 are inclined transversely to the transport direction 10 and along the row of nozzles 9 alternately to the left and to the right and have their inclinations obtained by a folding before the assembly of the two pieces 7.1, 7.2 and bending lines 14. Each of the bending lines 14 is located at the foot of the respective tongue 11.1, 12.1. The tongues 11.1, 12.1 and gaps 11.2, 12.2 together form nozzles 15 whose air flows 16 to side edges 17 (see. FIG. 3 ) of the printing material 2 are directed towards.

In Figur 3 ist dargestellt, dass die Leitfläche 7, anstatt aus den zwei Stücken 7.1, 7.2, auch aus einem einzigen Stück bestehen kann. Bei der Herstellung einer solchen einstückigen Leitfläche 7 wird die mäanderförmige Schneidlinie 13 nur als endlicher Einschnitt ausgeführt, so dass Stege 18 stehen gelassen werden und die als Werkstück dienende Platte nicht über ihre gesamte Länge durchtrennt wird. Genauso wie bei dem in den Figuren 2a bis 2c dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel erfolgt auch bei der Modifikation gemäß Figur 3 nach dem mäanderförmigen Schneiden, das z. B. mittels eines Laserstrahls besonders rasch und präzise durchgeführt werden kann, das Umbiegen bzw. Neigen der Zungen 11.1, 12.1 der Düsen 15, welche auf einer gemeinsamen Fluchtlinie 19 angeordnet sind. Diese Fluchtlinie 19 verläuft bezüglich der Bedruckstoffbreite b des Bedruckstoffs 2 mittig.In FIG. 3 is shown that the guide surface 7, instead of the two pieces 7.1, 7.2, can also consist of a single piece. In the production of such a one-piece guide surface 7, the meandering cutting line 13 is executed only as a finite incision, so that webs 18 are left standing and serving as a workpiece plate is not severed over its entire length. Just like the one in the FIGS. 2a to 2c illustrated embodiment also takes place in the modification according to FIG. 3 after the meandering cutting, the z. B. by means of a laser beam can be performed particularly quickly and precisely, the bending or tilting of the tongues 11.1, 12.1 of the nozzles 15, which are arranged on a common alignment line 19. This alignment line 19 extends centrally with respect to the substrate width b of the printing substrate 2.

Die in Figur 4 dargestellte zweite Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung 6 unterscheidet sich von der in Figur 3 dargestellten Modifikation der ersten Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung 5 im Wesentlichen nur dadurch, dass die Leitfläche 8 nicht aus einem plattenförmigen sondern aus einem schalenförmigen (Blech-)Stück besteht. Genauso wie die Leitfläche 7 ist auch die Leitfläche 8 einstückig ausgebildet. Die in die Leitfläche 8 eingebrachten Düsen 15 sind in mehreren miteinander fluchtenden Düsenreihen 9 gruppiert. Jede der Düsenreihen 9 weist eine eigene mäanderförmige Schneidlinie 13 auf und ist von der ihr jeweils benachbarten Düsenreihe 9 über einen die Leitfläche 8 stabilisierenden Steg 18 getrennt. Die Düsenreihen 9 längserstrecken sich bezüglich der Bedruckstoffbreite b (vgl. Figur 3) mittig.In the FIG. 4 illustrated second Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung 6 differs from the in FIG. 3 shown modification of the first Bedruckstoffleitvorrichtung 5 essentially only in that the guide surface 8 is not made of a plate-shaped but from a cup-shaped (sheet) piece. Just as the guide surface 7 and the guide surface 8 is integrally formed. The introduced into the guide surface 8 nozzles 15 are grouped in a plurality of aligned nozzle rows 9. Each of the rows of nozzles 9 has its own meander-shaped cutting line 13 and is separated from its respectively adjacent row of nozzles 9 via a web 8 stabilizing the guide surface 8. The nozzle rows 9 extend longitudinally with respect to the substrate width b (see FIG. FIG. 3 ) in the middle.
