Definitions
- the invention relates to a control for a machine for producing paper pads or a machine for producing paper pads, which has such a control.
- Paper cushions are used in large quantities for the packaging of goods for shipping and serve to protect the goods to be shipped. They have over the also relatively widespread plastic pads with air bubbles the advantage that paper has a much better environmental impact. Machines for the production of paper pads are already known in various embodiments.
- such a machine can comprise a storage unit which consists of one or more rollers with single- or multi-ply paper webs, a forming device which deforms the paper pallets into cushioned strips by rolling in the side edges, a connecting device which seals the cushion strip in the central area by means of embossing, a cutting device which separates padding from the padding strip, a drive device for driving the connecting device and the cutting device and a controller which controls the machine according to the specifications.
- the invention has for its object to improve a control for a machine for the production of paper pads in terms of ease of use and production.
- the solution of this object is achieved by the features of claim 1 and in particular by a control for a machine for the production of paper pads, wherein the machine has a drive motor with cutting device and a forming device to form a cushion from a paper web and cut to a desired length
- the controller includes an input means for inputting a desired pad length and a controller having a memory for driving the drive motor in response to the input means.
- Activation of the input means starts the drive motor and deactivating the input means stops the drive motor or triggers a cutting process so that the time duration of the activation of the input means corresponds to the produced cushion length.
- a user can operate the input means, such as a button, and as long as the button is pressed, a paper pad is produced by the machine. When the paper pad has reached the length desired by the user, it releases the button so that the drive motor stops, the cutter is actuated and a paper pad of the desired length is produced.
- control unit automatically stores the produced pad length in the memory upon deactivation of the input means and makes this pad length available for further retrieval.
- controller remembers the cushion length created by manual operation of the input means so that it can be reproduced if desired.
- the stored pad length can be retrieved from the memory by a particular short-term operation of the or another input means, wherein upon retrieval of the pad length automatically producing at least one further pad in the retrieved length is triggered.
- another pad in the previously automatically stored length can be retrieved by pressing the button only briefly, after which another pad of the same length is produced.
- the input means may be a single switch or button, wherein in addition to the switch or button an input keyboard is provided with the desired cushion lengths in the controller can be entered or retrieved from the controller, wherein upon retrieval of a cushion length automatically the production of at least one pad in the retrieved length is triggered.
- an input keyboard is provided in addition to the individual input means, for example, a single button, for example, to retrieve preprogrammed pad lengths.
- a cushion can be produced in a preprogrammed length by operating the input keyboard, whereas a cushion in the automatically stored cushion length can be produced by operating the input means.
- the user in addition to the operation via the input keyboard, which is usually has some small input keys, can also make the operation of the machine via the input means in the form of a separate button, which can be designed to be larger in size, to allow easy operation.
- a directly sequential retrieval of each pad length with the switch or button on the one hand and with the input keyboard on the other hand possible without a further input means of the control can be operated between these two calls rnuss.
- the user can alternately and without intermediate steps produce a cushion over the operation of the button and a pad on the operation of a button on the input keyboard, which further simplifies the operation of the machine.
- At least one additional switch or button may be provided, upon actuation of which a stored in the memory, ie preprogrammed standard length is retrieved, upon retrieval of this pad length automatically producing at least one pad in the retrieved length is triggered.
- the ease of use for the user is further increased, since an additional separate switch or button is provided which allows retrieval of a pre-programmed standard length, so that the user does not have to operate the relatively small keys on the input keyboard to retrieve this standard length but can rely on the additionally provided switch or button, which is correspondingly large in size to allow easy and quick operation.
- a display device wherein upon first switching on the controller, for example, at start of operation, stored in the memory standard pad length is displayed, which is retrievable by another input means, upon retrieval of this pad length automatically producing at least one pad in the retrieved length is triggered.
- the controller provides a default setting so that when the machine is turned on, the user can immediately access this preset pad length shown in the display.
- the controller has a mode in which a combination of the desired number and the desired length of pads to be produced can be stored or retrieved. This can be advantageous if, for certain packaging purposes, a particular assortment of upholstery in different lengths is desired.
- an input means may be provided, with which a continuous production of upholstery in the pad length automatically stored by the control can be activated.
- a continuous production of upholstery in the pad length automatically stored by the control it is not necessary for the user to retrieve a single pad again in the length automatically stored by the controller. Rather, a continuous production can be triggered.
- the single switch or button for starting or stopping the drive motor, the input keyboard and the input means for activating a continuous production are equal input means for retrieving a cushion length, wherein upon retrieval of the pad length automatically the production of at least one pad in the retrieved length is triggered.
- a selector switch is provided, with which a plurality of memory locations in the memory can be selected, wherein a produced cushion length can be automatically stored at these memory locations.
- the selector switch By pressing the selector switch, the user can thus store a cushion length just produced in one of several memory locations, whereby the ease of use is further increased.
- the associated stored padding length can be produced when the input means is activated.
- the plurality of memory locations can each be assigned a further input means to retrieve a pad length stored at the respective memory location, wherein the retrieval of the pad length automatically triggers the production of at least one pad in the retrieved length.
- the plurality of memory locations can each be assigned a further input means to retrieve a pad length stored at the respective memory location, wherein the retrieval of the pad length automatically triggers the production of at least one pad in the retrieved length.
- three memory locations can be provided and three buttons can be provided in addition to these three memory locations with which the pad lengths stored at the memory locations can be retrieved. In this case, for example, by briefly pressing the Tasters a single pad in the stored length and a long press on the button, a continuous production of pads in the stored length are triggered.
- a sensor can be connected to the controller, which detects the upcoming end of the paper web, wherein the controller generates a signal in response to the sensor.
- a signal in response to the sensor.
- This may be, for example, a warning signal that indicates to the user the imminent end of the paper web.
- an interrupt signal may also be generated which causes the controller to at least temporarily interrupt the operation of the machine. In this way, it can be ensured that a new paper web can be inserted into the machine in good time so that the tracking of the paper web through the machine is possible in a simple manner.
- the machine In the machine, only a drive motor can be provided, which can be used for transporting the paper web and also for operating the cutting device. However, the cutting device must always be driven only when a cutting operation is to take place.
- the machine may have a magnetic coupling, which at the time at which a cutting operation is to take place, is activated and couples the cutting device to the drive motor. Once the cutting process has taken place, the magnetic coupling is deactivated again and the cutting device is thus uncoupled from the drive motor.
- Such magnetic couplings which are conventional in themselves, have a coil which must be supplied very quickly with a sufficient amount of energy when coupling the cutting device to the drive motor.
- a disc or a ring of the cutting device is pressed against a driven by the drive motor pulley or a ring (by electromagnetic attraction forces).
- the disk of the cutting device is thus entrained, provided that the pressing force is large enough to absorb the torque from the disk or from the ring of the drive motor to the disk or to transmit the ring of the cutting device, so that the disc or the ring of the cutting device can not slip.
- the disc of the cutter may be connected to a lever mechanism which is actuated by the rotation of the disc or ring and drives the knife of the cutter through the pad strip and thus cuts a paper pad of a desired length from the pad strip.
- the knife After cutting, the knife must be withdrawn very quickly, since a continuous transport of cushion strips should be possible, which would be hindered by a long residence of the knife in the cutting position.
- the cutting device must be disconnected very quickly from the drive motor.
- the control of the machine is designed for this purpose so that when coupled immediately supplied the magnetic coupling (or the coil of the magnetic coupling) with the required amount of energy so that the cutting device is immediately coupled to the drive motor and the torque can transmit immediately. Furthermore, the control of the machine is also designed so that it after the time period in which the cutter has cut the pad strip, the energy from the magnetic coupling (or from the coil of the magnetic coupling) immediately dissipates, so The knife can be immediately pulled back out of the cutting position with the help of mechanical return springs.
- the controller may comprise a feed unit and a power unit, wherein the feed unit provides the required energy to at the time, with the aid of Magnet coupling the coupling of the cutting device is to be made to the drive motor to provide the coil of the magnetic coupling with the required energy.
- the power unit switches this energy immediately to the coil of the magnetic coupling. If the specifiable period of time has elapsed, which is required for driving the blade of the cutting device through the cushion strip, the power unit immediately removes the energy from the coil.
- the feed unit advantageously comprises a step-up converter and the power unit is provided with a Tranzorb diode circuit for dissipating the energy from the coil.
- controller may comprise a control panel connected to the machine, on which the respective desired operating mode of the machine can be set directly by means of individual keys, without the provision of a separate mode switch, as in the prior art. This makes the operation of the machine even easier.
- the controller has a connection for an electromagnetic clutch of an auxiliary device, wherein the controller, depending on whether the electromagnetic clutch is connected or not, controls the drive motor differently.
- the auxiliary device may for example be an externally coupled to the machine winding device, which is controlled by the drive of the machine.
- the electromagnetic coupling provided for this purpose can then be actuated by the control, wherein during operation of the winding device the drive of the machine, in particular the supply, the caster and the operation of the knife, must be controlled differently than if no auxiliary electromagnetic device is provided.
- the controller independently detects whether an electromagnetic clutch is connected.
- the control can be changed manually, for example by pressing keys of the input field.
- auxiliary devices are a conveyor belt, a roller auxiliary drive, winding aids and the like.
- controller may be provided with one or more remote controls, with which the operation of the machine can be started or optionally stopped in a specific mode.
- remote controls with which the operation of the machine can be started or optionally stopped in a specific mode. This is advantageous in that then the individual operating modes can be programmed on the control panel, and afterwards the operating personnel from another location (eg from the location of the output device for the paper pad) with the help of the remote control only start the production of paper pads or can finish again.
- the controller may be advantageous to form the controller as a separate control unit, which is connected via a cable to the machine.
- the couplings and sensors, a bus system are provided for transmitting the control signals from the controller to the machine and its components, for example the drive motor.
- Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of a controller according to a first embodiment
- FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of a controller according to a second embodiment.
- the control serves to control a machine for producing paper pads, the machine having a drive motor with a cutting device and a forming device for forming a pad from a paper web and cutting it to a desired length.
- Such machines are basically known.
- reference is made to the content of WO 99/36252, which is expressly incorporated by reference into the content of this patent application. Since those skilled in the art such machines for the production of paper pads are well known, the machine itself is not described in detail in this application.
- Fig. 1 shows a first embodiment of a controller, which is designed as a semi-automatic.
- the controller 10 shown in Fig. 1 has in its interior formed by a microprocessor and not shown control unit with a memory which controls both the drive motor as well as the cutting device of the machine.
- the controller 10 shown in FIG. 1 has a main switch 12 and an emergency stop switch 14. Furthermore, a start button 16 is provided, with which after actuation of the main switch 12, an initialization of the controller 10 can be made so that it is ready for operation. In contrast, the entire machine is de-energized with the main switch 12 as well as the emergency off ter 14.
- the reference numeral 18 denotes a button with an enlarged touch area, which serves as input means for the controller 10 to input a desired cushion length.
- the drive motor is started in a known manner and it begins the production of a paper pad.
- a cutting operation is triggered and the drive motor is stopped, so that the time duration of the activation of the button 18 corresponds to a specific pad length.
- the controller 10 is designed so that the pad length produced by pressing and releasing the button 18 automatically, ie automatically and without further keystroke stored in the memory of the controller and made available for further retrieval.
- the time can be determined during which the button 18 was kept pressed.
- the revolutions of the drive motor or the like during this time can be determined by the controller, since these also correlate with the produced cushion length. If the operator wishes to make another cushion in the just-produced length, a momentary tapping of the button 18 is sufficient, whereupon the controller retrieves the value stored in the memory, which corresponds to the pad length just produced, and produces another pad of this length ,
- the controller 10 has a selector switch 20 with which a plurality of memory locations in the memory of the controller 10 can be selected. In each of these storage places, a produced cushion length is automatically storable, i. Depending on the position of the selector switch 20, the length automatically stored by the controller 10 is stored either in a memory location I, in a memory location II or in a memory location III. To retrieve these three cushion lengths only the selector switch 20 must be set to the desired storage position.
- buttons 22, 24 and 26 are provided on the controller 10, which allow a continuous production of upholstery, the length of each stored Upholstery length I, II and III corresponds. If the user requires, for example, a continuous production of upholstery, the length of which corresponds to the stored cushion length II, it is sufficient to press the button 24. If the button 24 is pressed further or the selector switch 20 is actuated, the continuous production is stopped. v 15
- buttons 22, 24 or 26 it is also possible to retrieve the production of a single pad in the desired pad length I, II or III by briefly tapping the buttons 22, 24 or 26. If these buttons are pressed a little longer, then a continuous production takes place.
- the controller 10 shown in Fig. 1 further includes a sensor which detects the impending end of the paper web, the controller 10, in response to the sensor, generating a signal which temporarily disrupts further operation of the machine, such that a new one soon enough Paper web can be inserted into the machine.
- a further switch 28 is provided on the controller 10, with which the sensor can be switched off.
- controller 10 is provided with another sensor (not shown) interposed between the drive wheel of the machine and the
- Cutting device which scans the paper pad produced directly in this area. If a paper jam occurs in this area, the controller stops the drive motor so that the paper jam can be removed in a timely manner before the paper wedges in the machine.
- Fig. 2 shows a further embodiment of the invention, which corresponds in its basic functions of the embodiment of Fig. 1, but which is designed as a fully automatic machine. For this reason, the same reference numerals are used in the description for the same components.
- the controller 40 shown in FIG. 2 in turn has a main switch 12, an emergency stop button 14 and a start button 16. As input means for starting and stopping the machine, a button 18 is again provided. In this respect, the design and operation of the controller 40 is not different from the controller 10.
- an input keyboard 45 and a display 90 are provided in the controller 40, with which further control functions can be accessed.
- 45 different operating modes can be programmed using the input keyboard.
- Fig. 2 further four function keys 91, 92, 93, 94, with which various operating modes can be programmed.
- the function keys 91, 92, 93 with different programs which each produce a certain number of paper pads of a certain length as soon as the release button 95 has been actuated.
- each function key may be populated with up to eight different combinations of number and length of paper pads to be made, e.g.
- Keys 96, 97 and 98 are confirmation and clear keys, respectively, which can confirm, correct or erase an input during programming.
- the remaining keys of the control panel shown in Fig. 3 are decimal number keys as well as a decimal point key and a minus key for a negative sign.
- three further keys 46, 48 and 50 are additionally provided in addition to the input keyboard 45, which are connected in parallel to the keys 91, 92 and 93 of the input keyboard 45. This makes it possible to increase the ease of use, since the structurally larger designed buttons 46 to 50 are much easier and faster to use than the relatively small buttons 91 to 93 of the input keyboard 45th
- the button 18 for the production of a single pad, the button 30 for continuous production and the keys 91 to 93 of the input keyboard 45 and the buttons 46, 48 and 50 are equal, ie each of these Pushbuttons or buttons can be pressed consecutively without having to press another button of the control in between, or a program change switch must be activated.
- the input keyboard 45 different preprogrammed cushion lengths or assortments of upholstery, ie different cushion length in a certain number, can be retrieved. It is also possible to program the control with the aid of the input keyboard 45.
- a preset standard cushion length is displayed in the display 90, which can then be accessed by pressing the key 91 of the input keyboard 45 or by pressing the button 46.
- the controller 40 in addition to the input keyboard 45 in addition large-area mechanical buttons 18 and 46 - 50 are provided, which are partially redundant to lent a fast and safe operation of the machine.
