Definitions

  • the invention relates to an embossing machine for transferring surface portions from a carrier web, such as a film, to a substrate, such as a sheet or traveling web of paper or other materials.
  • embossing machines flat structures, such as Holograms, areas of metallized foils or metal layers, impressed on a substrate, usually in heat-sealing process.
  • a substrate usually in heat-sealing process.
  • the corresponding surface section on the carrier film applied and with the aid of a heat-sealing layer, the surface portion detached from the film and impressed on the substrate.
  • Such an embossing machine is shown in DE 196 25 064 C2 and described in detail. It also describes a mechanical non-uniformity gearbox, that between the tool and the impression cylinder is switched on and adjustable periodic changes the peripheral speed of one of the cylinders during each one turn allows. For the reasons described there It can thus be achieved that at the time at which Tool on the tool cylinder located on the carrier web Print image on the substrate transmits exactly the same peripheral speed Both cylinders are present, although there are slight differences in can give the effective diameters of the two cylinders. So will So for example when too small tool cylinder this approaching accelerated at the printing time and then delayed again, that at the next circulation the register validity is maintained again is.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an embossing machine, this Function with less mechanical effort allows and In addition, further possibilities and improved adjustability opens.
  • the invention thus uses a mechanical of the second cylinder, usually the impression cylinder, decoupled electric drive for the first cylinder, which is usually the tool cylinder.
  • the impression cylinder also has the task of bowing machines to take the bow and to transport through the nip and is also to a Series of follower units connected, so here's an accurate Positioning and tactness is necessary, what one to the rest Machine fixed bearing conditioned.
  • the tool cylinder can in its axial distance from the impression cylinder be adjustable and movable in its effective Diameter passing through the surface of the tools attached to it is defined, depends on their thickness. Furthermore, the tool cylinder heated during heat seal transfer, so that thermal Extensions arise which are accurate to within a hundredth of a millimeter Adjustment of the pressure nip certainly play a role. therefore previously had the scope of the impression cylinder laborious by so-called lifts, i. not participating in the actual printing process Bow of different thickness, to be adjusted.
  • the embossing machine is referred to the aforementioned DE 196 25 064 C2 also referred to for the purpose of disclosure.
  • the electric drive according to the invention the mechanical completely from the synchronous drive the rest of the machine is decoupled for example, by the impression cylinder or its drive corresponding encoders, for example frequency generators or the like, are arranged.
  • an electronic control unit for example a computer, the data on the speed of the two cylinders compared with each other and the desired periodic deviations via a stored program, manually or on other Ways was entered, changed.
  • a three-phase motor is used as the electric drive, the speed changes via a controllable frequency converter certainly.
  • the electric drive an electric motor with a stator and a rotor, wherein the stator to stored another machine part than the first cylinder.
  • the stator for example, over a support arm on a machine-fixed part, ie on the machine frame, be supported so that he can increase his reaction to the Acceleration and deceleration moments directly on the machine frame and does not transfer to the swingarm.
  • the Adjustment drive for the rocker for example, a linear electric motor or a hydraulic cylinder, from these vibrations or shock loads kept free.
  • the support arm can be vertical to the connection of the cylinder axis run with the axis of the adjustment rocker and over a Sliding seat to be connected to the machine frame.
  • a Sliding seat can be omitted if the support arm in the direction this connecting line between the axes runs and the support for example, on an extension of the swingarm axis he follows.
  • the support arm would run parallel to the rocker, however, support the stator independently of the rocker.
  • an embossing machine for transmitting holograms etc. created by a carrier sheet on a web or a sheet, the one tool cylinder and a counter-pressure cylinder has, between which the pressure gap over a tool cylinder overlapping swingarm is adjustable.
  • An electric drive of the tool cylinder makes it possible, by means of a controllable frequency converter fed three-phase motor the tool cylinder in deviation to move from the synchronous speed of the impression cylinder. Reaction forces caused by the acceleration and deceleration of the electric drive be directly from the stator of the electric drive via a Support arm derived on the machine frame.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show, schematically and restricted to the main functions, the embossing unit of an embossing machine 11.
  • a machine frame 12 in particular seen in Fig. 2, two cooperating with each other Embossing cylinders 13, 14 are mounted, of which the tool cylinder 13 stamping tools 15 carries while the underlying impression cylinder in a sheetfed machine gripper for detecting and holding a bow 16 (double-dot-dashed), which forms the substrate, on the surface portions, Images, symbols or the like are imprinted on a carrier web 17 (dash-dotted) removably attached.
  • the tools are appropriate adapted to the rounding of the tool cylinder and in their shape Metal platelets adapted to the area to be imprinted (in FIG.
  • the impression cylinder 14 is in bearings 19 in the machine frame about a horizontal Axis 20 rotatably mounted. He is about a drive gear 21 of a synchronous drive of the entire embossing machine is driven, so with the other units, such as sheet feeding, gripper operation, etc., synchronized.
  • the tool cylinder 13 is mounted about an axis 20 parallel to the axis 22, in a relative to the machine frame 12 movable machine part 23, which is referred to below as a rocker.
  • the swingarm carries From Fig. 1 it can be seen that the Swingarm, which has one cheek on each side of the tool cylinder an axis 25 on the machine frame is mounted so that it is a linear drive 26, for example, a hydraulic cylinder or an electric Linear motor or a spindle drive or the like., For precision adjustment of Pressure gap 18 is pivotable.
  • the connecting line between the Pivot axis 25 and the axis 22 of the tool cylinder is approximately horizontal and thus perpendicular to the connecting line between the axes 20, 22 of the two Cylinder.
  • rocker 23 by a rib 27 at a the swingarm receiving cutout of the machine frame in cooperation with a groove 28 in the outer contour of the rocker for axial guidance of the tool cylinder is received.
  • the tool cylinder 13 is driven by an electric drive 30 and is otherwise mechanically with respect to its drive with the synchronous drive coupled to the impression cylinder.
  • the electric drive has an electric motor 31 on, namely a three-phase motor, possibly via a pre-gearbox 32 is directly connected to the shaft 33 of the tool cylinder 13.
  • the stator 34 of the electric motor, on the housing of the primary gear 32 is flanged, is not attached to the swingarm.
  • the unit stator / gear housing 35 is provided with a support arm 36, which, as shown in FIG. 1 can be seen, essentially vertically to the swing extension or his Connecting line 37 between the axes 22 and 25 and thus approximately in the direction the connecting line 38 between the axes 20 and 22 extends.
  • Of the Support arm is provided with a sliding seat in the form of a slot 39 on a stop pin 40, which is machine-mounted and of the machine frame 12 protrudes.
  • Both cylinders 13, 14 are each provided with a transmitter 41, 42, the the respective rotational position, the rotational frequency, etc. of the cylinder in the form of electrical Give signals to a controller.
  • This control is shown schematically in FIG.
  • the signals of the encoder 41 and 42 are fed to a controller 43, which is called an electronic Computer (computer) is shown.
  • a controller 43 which is called an electronic Computer (computer) is shown.
  • output signals are generated which are sent via a data output 45 a speed control 46 are supplied, which is a controllable frequency converter contains.
  • This generated from a network via a line 47th supplied current is a three-phase current, which in its frequency exactly the desired Speed of the electric drive 30 corresponds to which he over the three-phase connection 48 is supplied.
