- the present invention relates to a knife carrier of a cutting machine, and more particularly to an upper knife with variable spiral curve angle as well as a tissue paper cutting mechanism using such upper knife.

Description
- The present invention relates to a knife carrier of a cutting machine, and more particularly to an upper knife with variable spiral curve angle as well as a tissue paper cutting mechanism using such upper knife. A long tape of tissue paper fed into and conveyed through the tissue paper cutting mechanism is cut by the upper knife and a cooperating bed knife roller into regular length paper pieces, which are then overlapped and folded to produce a stack of interfolded paper.
- Many different cutting techniques have been developed for cutting tissue paper. For example, there is a conventional roller-type straight-knife cutting mechanism consisting of an inline knife and a roller. In a paper cutting operation, a long tape of paper to be cut is wound around the roller, and the roller is caused to continuously rotate while the knife reciprocates vertically corresponding to the rotating roller. When a cutting edge of the knife contacts with the roller, the paper is cut.
- However, during the conventional paper cutting operation, the cutting edge of the knife and the long tape of paper wound around the roller are in line contact with each other. At the instant of contact, the cutting edge of the knife bears a considerably large normal or angular contact force and therefore tends to break easily.
- In the existing tissue paper cutting techniques, a cutting manner based on the shearing principle by using an upper knife and a corresponding bed knife roller has been widely employed. Most currently very common tissue paper cutting mechanisms include a one-piece oblique knife, a compound oblique knife, or a simple spiral curve knife as the upper knife thereof. When cutting paper with these types of knives, they either bear an uneven contact force or contact with the bed knife roller at multiple contact points at the same time. As a result, not only the upper knife, but also a knife carrier thereof and the bed knife roller would bear a relatively large or uneven impact at the instant of contact to become deformed or damaged and therefore have a largely reduced usable life.

DE3718776 discloses a synchronization cross cutters with two oppositely rotated, axially parallel cutting rotors that support cooperating, helically extending knife blades with cutting edges situated in a cylindrical envelope. The axes of these cutting edges run at an angle, corresponding to the inclination of the helix, with respect to the direction of advancement of the material web being cut To accommodate different cutting lengths without the need for a controllable irregular drive for this purpose, the axial distance of the cutting rotors from the material web is variable and the knives are mounted on a flat blade holder that runs substantially tangentially in the rotor cross section and is slightly flexible. The knife blade holder, supported by a series of individually adjustable supporting elements, can be given a slight flexure with a radial adjustment, so as to assure that the position of the cutting edge of the knife remains within in the cylindrical envelope. Preferably, the supporting elements consist of supporting shanks which can be clamped in a beam-like hub body of the cutting rotor and which alternate with screw spindles that form the adjusting means. - The European Patent Application
EP-A-0122996 discloses a rotary web shearing machine equipped with pairs of rotating helical blades, the improvement for adjusting the clearance between the blades which makes it unnecessary to adjust the blades by their individual holders while the machine is stationary, but makes it possible to effect this adjustment without shutting down the machine. This is accomplished either by providing that one of the blades remains in a fixed axial position, while the companion cutting blade holding shaft is moved axially with respect to the fixed blade. This is accomplished by the novel mechanism on the end of the shaft of said blade mounted in a special bearing and housing and equipped with an adjusting screw and nut which permits imparting of axial motion to the shaft while it is in rotation if desired and thus effecting a variation in the clearance between the pair of helical blades eliminating the necessity of shutting the machine down and resorting to manual adjustment of the blade holders to effect proper clearance. This adjustment becomes necessary frequently as the blades wear or their cutting action is otherwise impaired. -
Fig. 1 schematically shows the motion relation between a compound oblique upper knife N1 and a straight bed knife N2. As shown, the oblique upper knife N1 contacts with the straight bed knife N2 at multiple contact points at the instant of cutting, and the upper knife is subjected to relatively large impact and vibration. - Paper cutting mechanisms with one-piece oblique upper knife or simple spiral upper knife and straight bed knife have been developed in an attempt to overcome the drawbacks of the paper cutting mechanism with compound oblique upper knife and straight bed knife.
Fig. 2 schematically shows the motion relation between a one-piece oblique or a simple spiral upper knife N3 and a straight bed knife N4. As can be seen fromFig. 2 , while the oblique upper knife N3 contact with the straight bed knife N4 at only one contact point at the instant of cutting, the oblique upper knife N3 is fed at a relatively quick speed and is still subjected to a relatively large impact and vibration. - It is therefore a primary object of the present invention to provide a tissue paper cutting mechanism having upper knife with variable spiral curve angle. The upper knife with variable spiral curve angle is associated with a structural surface of a knife carrier thereof in such as manner that, in the process of cutting the tissue paper, an angle contained between an axis of the upper knife and a tangential line to an outer circumferential surface of a bed knife roller cooperating with the upper knife non-linearly varies with every change of the cutting position on the upper knife.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide an upper knife structure with variable spiral curve angle for a tissue paper cutting mechanism. The upper knife is associated with a structural surface of a knife carrier thereof to extend along a longitudinal axis of the knife carrier from an end to the other opposite end thereof in a spiral direction.
- Compared to the conventional upper knives for the paper cutting mechanisms, the upper knife with variable spiral curve angle of the present invention is in point contact with the straight bed knife on a bed knife roller at only one contact point at the instant of cutting, and a curvilinear angle between the upper knife and the straight bed knife on the bed knife roller non-linearly varies with every change of cutting position on the upper knife. In this manner, the upper knife and the straight bed knives on the bed knife roller are always in stable point contact with one another, enabling the knives to have a prolonged usable life.
- The angle contained between the axis of the upper knife and the tangential line to the outer circumferential surface of the bed knife roller non-linearly varies with every change of the cutting position on the upper knife. With the adjustment made to the spiral curve angle on the upper knife in the present invention, deformation amounts at two end points and a middle point of the upper knife will gradually become closer to one another, and the upper knife is protected against damage due to a particularly high deformation amount at a certain point that bears a force. Therefore, the upper knife may have a prolonged service life to allow increased production efficiency. In the present invention, a cutting speed at the beginning of cutting is particularly reduced to effectively soften the impact at the instant of cutting and reduce the vibration of the knife.
- To achieve the above objects, in accordance with the present invention, there is provided a tissue paper cutting mechanism having upper knife with variable spiral curve angle. The tissue paper cutting mechanism comprises a base, a bed knife roller rotatably mounted on the base and provided on a circumferential surface with a plurality of straight bed knives radially spaced at predetermined intervals, a knife carrier mounted on the base near the bed knife roller at an axis skew angle relative to the bed knife roller, and an upper knife associated with a structural surface of the knife carrier to extend along a longitudinal axis direction of the knife carrier from an end to another opposite end thereof in a spiral direction, such that an angle contained between an axis of the upper knife and a tangential line to the circumferential surface of the bed knife roller non-linearly varies with every change of the cutting position on the upper knife.

Fig. 3 that shows the arrangement of various components included in a tissue paper cutting mechanism according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown, the tissue paper cutting mechanism of the present invention includes abase 1, on which a first and asecond cutting mechanism mechanisms - The
first cutting mechanism 100 includes a plurality ofidlers 2, abed knife roller 3, aknife carrier 4, anupper knife 5, a fold-formingroller 6, apacker finger 7, and apneumatic control device 8. Thebed knife roller 3 is provided on an outer circumferential surface with a plurality ofstraight bed knives 32 radially spaced at predetermined intervals. Thebed knife roller 3 has aroller shaft 31 for rotatably mounting thebed knife roller 3 to a predetermined position on thebase 1. Theknife carrier 4 includes acarrier shaft 41 for mounting theknife carrier 4 on thebase 1 at a position in the vicinity of thebed knife roller 3. - The long tape of tissue paper S1 is fed through the
idlers 2 of thefirst cutting mechanism 100 and conveyed to thebed knife roller 3, which is rotated in a predetermined rotating direction. At this point, a shear contact is formed between theupper knife 5 and one of thestraight bed knives 32 on thebed knife roller 3 to cut the long tape of tissue paper S1 to a regular length paper piece S11, which is then conveyed to the fold-formingroller 6. - Similarly, the
second cutting mechanism 200 includes a plurality ofidlers 2a, abed knife roller 3a, aknife carrier 4a, anupper knife 5a, a fold-formingroller 6a, apacker finger 7a, and apneumatic control device 8a. Thebed knife roller 3a is provided on an outer circumferential surface with a plurality ofstraight bed knives 32a radially spaced at predetermined intervals. Thebed knife roller 3a has aroller shaft 31a for rotatably mounting thebed knife roller 3a to a predetermined position on thebase 1. Theknife carrier 4a includes acarrier shaft 41a for mounting theknife carrier 4a on thebase 1 at a position in the vicinity of thebed knife roller 3a. - The long tape of tissue paper S2 is fed through the
idlers 2a of thesecond cutting mechanism 200 and conveyed to thebed knife roller 3a, which is rotated in a predetermined rotating direction. At this point, a shear contact is formed between theupper knife 5a and one of thestraight bed knives 32a on thebed knife roller 3a to cut the long tape of tissue paper S2 to a regular length paper piece S21, which is then conveyed to the fold-formingroller 6a. - The fold-forming
rollers rollers packer fingers - The
bed knife rollers rollers bed knife rollers rollers - The
pneumatic control device 8 includes anair cylinder 81 and anextension arm 82 movably connected to theknife carrier 4. Similarly, thepneumatic control device 8a includes anair cylinder 81a and anextension arm 82a movably connected to theknife carrier 4a. When the long tape of tissue paper S1, S2 is used up, theair cylinder extension arm knife carrier upper knife straight bed knife bed knife roller cutting mechanism air cylinder extension arm knife carrier knife carrier bed knife roller - Since the components of the first and the
second cutting mechanism first cutting mechanism 100 is further described in more details about the structure thereof. Please refer toFigs. 4 and5 that are front and end views, respectively, showing the arrangement of theupper knife 5 on theknife carrier 4 in the present invention. As shown, theknife carrier 4 includes aknife holder 42, to which theupper knife 5 fixedly held. - The
knife holder 42 is formed on astructural surface 43 of theknife carrier 4 to extend along alongitudinal axis direction 11 of theknife carrier 4 from anend 40a to anotheropposite end 40b thereof in a spiral direction. - The
upper knife 5 is held to theknife holder 42, and is therefore located on thestructural surface 43 of theknife carrier 4 to extend along the longitudinal axis direction I1 of theknife carrier 4 from theend 40a to theopposite end 40b thereof in a spiral direction. - The
knife carrier 4 is also provided at predetermined positions with a knife projectinglength adjusting unit 44 for adjusting the length by which theupper knife 5 is projected from theknife holder 42, a knifeclamping adjusting unit 45 for adjusting the tightness by which theupper knife 5 is held to theknife holder 42, and a knifecurvature adjusting unit 46 for adjusting a curvature of theupper knife 5. -
Fig. 6 is a perspective view showing the mounting position of theknife carrier 4 relative to thebed knife roller 3 in the present invention. As shown, thebed knife roller 3 may be rotated in arotating direction 12, and an axis skew angle θx is contained between theknife carrier 4 and thebed knife roller 3. -
Fig. 7 is a developed plan view showing the motion relation between theupper knife 5 and thestraight bed knife 32 on thebed knife roller 3 in the present invention. As shown, during a paper cutting operation on thecutting mechanism 100, theupper knife 5 is always in point contact with thestraight bed knife 32 at only one single point, and a curvilinear angle between the upper knife and the straight bed knife on the bed knife roller non-linearly varies with every change of cutting position on the upper knife. In this manner, the upper knife and the straight bed knives on the bed knife roller are always in stable point contact with one another, enabling the knives to have a prolonged usable life. In the present invention, a cutting speed at the beginning of cutting is particularly reduced to effectively reduce the vibration of the knife. -
Fig. 8 is a curve diagram showing and comparing the cutting . characteristics of some other commonly employed upper knives and theupper knife 5 of the present invention. In the curve diagram ofFig. 8 , the abscissa indicates cutting time in second (sec), and the ordinate indicates a transverse length of the upper knife in millimeter (mm). The curve X1 in the diagram represents a conventional compound oblique upper knife is in contact with the straight bed knife at multiple points at the instant of cutting, and the cutting time thereof is very short, indicating that the knife must be bearing a relatively large impact and subjected to vibration at the instant of cutting. The curve X2 in the diagram represents a conventional one-piece oblique upper knife is in contact with the straight bed knife at only one single point at the instant of cutting, and the cutting time is still relatively short, indicating the knife is still fed at a relatively high speed, and accordingly, still subjected to a relatively large impact and vibration. The curve X3 represents the cutting characteristics of a simple spiral type upper knife. As can be seen from the curve X3 in the curve diagram ofFig. 8 . a cutting time T1 for the cutting from a beginning point A to a middle point B of the upper knife is almost equal to a cutting time T2 for the cutting from the middle point B to an end point C of the upper knife, indicating that the cutting is conducted at a fixed speed. And, the curve X4 represents the cutting characteristics of theupper knife 5 of the present invention. As can be seen from the curve X4 in the curve diagram ofFig. 8 , the cutting time T1 for the cutting from the beginning point A to the middle point B of theupper knife 5 is far longer than the cutting time T2 for the cutting from the middle point B to the end point C of theupper knife 5, indicating that, in the present invention, the cutting speed at the beginning of cutting is particularly reduced, so as to effectively soften an instantaneous impact to the upper knife at the beginning of cutting and reduce the vibration of the upper knife. In this manner, the knife may have reduced loss to increase the service life thereof. -
Fig. 9 is a perspective view showing theupper knife 5 initially contacts at a beginning point A with thestraight bed knife 32 on thebed knife roller 3 to start cutting.Fig. 10 is a sectional view showing a contained angle θ1 between an axis of theupper knife 5 and a tangential line to the outer circumferential surface of thebed knife roller 3 when theupper knife 5 initially contacts at the point A with thestraight bed knife 32 on thebed knife roller 3 as shown inFig. 9 .Fig. 11 is a perspective view showing the cutting performed by theupper knife 5 and thestraight knife 32 on thebed knife roller 3 has been progressed to a middle position of theupper knife 5 indicated as point B.Fig. 12 is a sectional view showing a contained angle θ2 between the axis of theupper knife 5 and a tangential line to the outer circumferential surface of thebed knife roller 3 when theupper knife 5 contacts at the middle point B with thestraight bed knife 32 on thebed knife roller 3 as shown inFig. 11 .Fig. 13 is a perspective view showing the cutting performed by theupper knife 5 and thestraight knife 32 on thebed knife roller 3 has been progressed to an end position of theupper knife 5 indicated as point C. And,Fig. 14 is a sectional view showing a contained angle θ3 between the axis of theupper knife 5 and a tangential line to the outer circumferential surface of thebed knife roller 3 when theupper knife 5 contacts at the end point C with thestraight bed knife 32 on thebed knife roller 3 as shown inFig. 13 . - It is found θ1>θ2, θ2<θ3, and θ1=θ3, indicating the contained angle θ between the axis of the
upper knife 5 and the tangential line to the circumferential surface of thebed knife roller 3 varies with every change of cutting position on theupper knife 5. In other words, the contained angle θ is non-linearly variable.Fig. 15 is a simplified view showing changes in the contained angle θ between theaxis 13 of theupper knife 5 and thetangential line 14 to the outer circumferential surface of thebed knife roller 3. As shown, with every change of the cutting position on theupper knife 5, the contained angle θ periodically non-linearly varies from θ1 to θ2 and then from θ2 to θ3, and the variation thereof is represented as Δθ. -
Figs. 16 and17 are front and side views, respectively, describing the deformed condition of theupper knife 5 when it is in use.Figs. 18, 19 , and20 are curve diagrams showing the deformation amounts of theupper knife 5 at different points A, B, and C thereof. -
Fig. 18 indicates theupper knife 5 fixed to theknife carrier 4 normally has two outer end points A and C with a somewhat weak strength; and when theupper knife 5 bears a force at the two end points A and C, the deformation amounts at points A. C are larger than the deformation amount at a middle point B when theupper knife 5 bears a force at the point B. InFig. 18 , the amounts of deformation are shown by broken lines. Please refer toFigs. 16 and18 at the same time. The broken lines at the two end points A and C are longer, compared to the broken line at the middle point B, indicating the amounts of deformation at these two end points A, C are relatively large. InFig. 18 , ΔY1 is a difference between the deformation amounts at the two end points A and C and the deformation amount at the middle point B. -
Fig. 19 indicates the contained angle between the axis I3 of theupper knife 5 and thetangential line 14 to the outer circumferential surface of thebed knife roller 3 varies with change in the cutting position on theupper knife 5. From the principle of mechanics, the larger the contained angle θ is, the smaller an effective component of the bearing force is, and accordingly, the smaller the deformation amount of the knife is. In the present invention, the contained angles θ1 and θ3 at the end points A and C, respectively, are larger than the contained angle θ2 at the middle point B. When concluding simply from this point, the deformation amounts at the two end points A, C are smaller, and the deformation amount at the middle point B is larger. -
Fig. 20 is a curve diagram showing a total effect fromFigs. 18 and 19 , and ΔY2 is a difference between the deformation amounts at the two end points A and C and the deformation amount at the middle point B. And, it is found ΔY2<ΔY1, indicating that when the angle of the spiral curve of theupper knife 5 is adjusted according to the present invention, the deformation amounts at the two end points A, C and the deformation amount at the middle point B get closer to one another. In this manner, it is possible to protect the upper knife against damage due to a particularly high deformation amount at a certain point that bears a force. Therefore, the knife may have a prolonged service life.
