Eine derartige Rundläuferpresse ist beispielsweise bekannt aus
Es kann erforderlich sein, die Kraftmesseinrichtungen beispielsweise für eine Wartung oder Reparatur zu entnehmen. Auch kann es erforderlich sein, eine vorhandene Kraftmesseinrichtung gegen eine andere Kraftmesseinrichtung auszutauschen, beispielsweise wenn sich der von der Kraftmesseinrichtung zu erfassende Presskraftbereich stark ändert. Dies ist zum Beispiel der Fall bei einem Wechsel zwischen einem Betriebszustand, bei dem Einschichttabletten verpresst werden zu einem Betriebszustand, bei dem Mehrschichttabletten verpresst werden. Ebenfalls erhebliche Presskraftunterschiede bestehen zwischen der Vordruckstation und der Hauptdruckstation. Soll beispielsweise eine bislang als Hauptdruckstation genutzte Druckstation in einem anderen Betriebsmodus als Vordruckstation genutzt werden, oder umgekehrt, kann ebenfalls ein Austausch der Kraftmesseinrichtung erforderlich werden. Bei Druckeinrichtungen bzw. Rundläuferpressen nach dem Stand der Technik ist hierzu eine aufwendige Demontage zumindest der Druckrolle der jeweiligen Druckeinrichtung oder sogar eine umfassende Demontage der gesamten Druckeinrichtung erforderlich.

Bei der Rundläuferpresse kann es sich um eine Rundläufertablettenpresse handeln, wie sie an sich bekannt ist. Die erfindungsgemäße Druckeinrichtung kann insbesondere Teil einer Druckstation der Presse sein. Hierzu können mindestens eine obere Druckeinrichtung und mindestens eine untere Druckeinrichtung vorgesehen sein, die gemeinsam eine Vordruck- und/oder Hauptdruckstation der Presse bilden. Die Druckeinrichtung besitzt mindestens ein Druckelement, beispielsweise eine Druckrolle, die im Betrieb der Presse mit den Pressstempeln in Kontakt tritt und diese in Aufnahmen der Presse für das zu verpressende Material, beispielsweise Matrizenbohrungen, drückt. Das Material kann pulverförmig sein. Es wird in an sich bekannter Weise von den Pressstempeln zu einem Pressling, beispielsweise einer Tablette, verpresst. Die erfindungsgemäße Druckeinrichtung besitzt in ebenfalls an sich bekannter Weise eine Kraftmesseinrichtung. Mit ihr wird die im Betrieb zwischen der Druckeinrichtung, insbesondere einem Druckelement, wie einer Druckrolle, und dem bzw. den Pressstempeln wirkende Kraft gemessen. Daraus können Rückschlüsse auf die Qualität der hergestellten Presslinge getroffen werden.The rotary press may be a rotary tablet press, as known in the art. The printing device according to the invention may in particular be part of a printing station of the press. For this purpose, at least one upper printing device and at least one lower printing device can be provided, which together form a pre-printing and / or main printing station of the press. The printing device has at least one pressure element, for example a pressure roller, which comes into contact with the press dies during operation of the press and presses these in recordings of the press for the material to be pressed, for example die bores. The material can be powdery. It is pressed in a conventional manner from the press dies to a compact, for example a tablet. The printing device according to the invention also has a force measuring device in a manner known per se. With her is the in operation between the printing device, in particular a pressure element, such as a pressure roller, and the or the press dies measured acting force. From this it is possible to draw conclusions about the quality of the produced compacts.
Erfindungsgemäß besitzt die Druckeinrichtung einen Abschnitt, der aus einer geschlossenen Betriebsposition für den Betrieb der Presse in eine geöffnete Wartungsposition für eine Wartung oder dergleichen der Kraftmesseinrichtung bewegbar ist. In der geöffneten Wartungsposition ist die innerhalb der Druckeinrichtung angeordnete Kraftmesseinrichtung für eine Bedienperson zumindest teilweise, insbesondere vollständig, zugänglich. Es kann somit eine teilweise oder vollständige Entnahme der Kraftmesseinrichtung für eine Wartung, eine Reparatur oder einen Austausch gegen eine andere Kraftmesseinrichtung erfolgen. Eine Demontage der Druckeinrichtung, beispielsweise eines Druckelements, wie einer Druckrolle, ist nicht erforderlich. Vielmehr kann durch die Trennung der Druckeinrichtung im Bereich der Kraftmesseinrichtung diese in einfacher Weise zugänglich gemacht werden. Hierdurch werden eine Wartung, Reparatur oder Austausch der Kraftmesseinrichtung im Vergleich zum Stand der Technik sowohl in zeitlicher Hinsicht als auch hinsichtlich der von einer Bedienperson aufzubringenden Kraft erheblich vereinfacht.According to the invention, the printing device has a portion which is movable from a closed operating position for the operation of the press in an open maintenance position for maintenance or the like of the force measuring device. In the open maintenance position, the force measuring device arranged within the pressure device is at least partially accessible to an operator, in particular completely. It can thus be a partial or complete removal of the force measuring device for maintenance, repair or replacement with another force measuring device. Disassembly of the printing device, such as a printing element, such as a pressure roller, is not required. Rather, it can be made accessible in a simple manner by the separation of the printing device in the field of force measuring device. As a result, a maintenance, repair or replacement of the force measuring device compared to the prior art, both in terms of time and in terms of applied by an operator force is greatly simplified.
Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass der bewegbare Abschnitt bei seiner Bewegung zwischen der geöffneten und der geschlossenen Betriebsposition zu jeder Zeit mit dem fest angeordneten Abschnitt der Druckeinrichtung verbunden bleibt. Beispielsweise wenn der bewegbare Abschnitt kein Druckelement umfasst, insbesondere wenn der bewegbare Abschnitt keine Druckrolle umfasst, kann aber auch vorgesehen sein, dass der bewegbare Abschnitt in seiner geöffneten Wartungsposition von dem fest angeordneten Abschnitt losgelöst ist. Die Kraftmesseinrichtung umfasst ein sogenanntes Druckstück und einen Kraftsensor bzw. eine sogenannte Kraftmessdose , wobei das Druckstück im Betrieb den auftretenden Kräften bzw. Drücken ausgesetzt ist und diese auf den Kraftsensor überträgt. Es kann bei einer Wartung, Reparatur oder einem Austausch ausreichend sein, wenn nur das Druckstück entnommen wird. Ebenso kann es ausreichend sein, nur den Kraftsensor zu entnehmen. Es kann daher vorgesehen sein, dass nur der jeweils zu entnehmende Teil der Kraftmesseinrichtung in der geöffneten Wartungsposition von außen zugänglich ist. Selbstverständlich ist es auch denkbar, dass die gesamte Kraftmesseinrichtung entnommen wird. In diesem Fall ist in der geöffneten Wartungsposition des bewegbaren Abschnitts der Druckeinrichtung die gesamte Kraftmesseinrichtung von außen zugänglich.It can be provided that the movable portion remains connected during its movement between the open and the closed operating position at any time with the fixed portion of the printing device. For example, if the movable section does not comprise a pressure element, in particular if the movable section does not comprise a pressure roller, it may also be provided that the movable section is released from the fixed section in its open maintenance position. The force measuring device comprises a so-called pressure piece and a force sensor or a so-called load cell , The pressure piece in operation exposed to the forces or pressures is and transmits them to the force sensor. It may be sufficient for maintenance, repair or replacement if only the pressure piece is removed. It may also be sufficient to remove only the force sensor. It can therefore be provided that only the respectively to be removed part of the force measuring device in the open maintenance position is accessible from the outside. Of course, it is also conceivable that the entire force measuring device is removed. In this case, in the open maintenance position of the movable portion of the printing device, the entire force measuring device is accessible from the outside.
Die Kraftmesseinrichtung ist in der geschlossenen Betriebsposition des bewegbaren Abschnitts von außen im Wesentlichen nicht zugänglich. Weiterhin ist die Kraftmesseinrichtung in einer Aufnahme der Druckeinrichtung angeordnet. Mit diesen Ausgestaltungen wird die Kraftmesseinrichtung im Betrieb der Presse optimal geschützt.The force measuring device is not accessible in the closed operating position of the movable portion from the outside substantially. Furthermore, the force measuring device is arranged in a receptacle of the printing device. With these embodiments, the force measuring device is optimally protected during operation of the press.
Gemäß einer besonders praxisgemäßen Ausgestaltung kann der bewegbare Abschnitt der Druckeinrichtung zwischen der geschlossenen Betriebsposition und der geöffneten Wartungsposition verschwenkbar sein, insbesondere mittels eines Schwenklagers. Beispielsweise kann der bewegbare Abschnitt um eine vertikale oder um eine gegenüber einer Drehachse eines Rotors der Presse geneigte Schwenkachse verschwenkbar sein. Die Druckeinrichtung kann beispielsweise eine obere und eine untere Hälfte bzw. Gehäusehälfte, aufweisen, wobei die Kraftmesseinrichtung zwischen den beiden Hälften aufgenommen wird. Es kann dann die obere oder untere Hälfte der Druckeinrichtung aus der mit der unteren bzw. oberen Hälfte verbundenen geschlossenen Betriebsposition von der unteren bzw. oberen Hälfte der Druckeinrichtung weg in die geöffnete Wartungsposition geschwenkt werden. Der Begriff Verschwenken umfasst dabei auch ein Verdrehen des bewegbaren Abschnitts der Druckeinrichtung gegenüber dem übrigen, fest angeordneten Abschnitt der Druckeinrichtung um eine gemeinsame Zentralachse oder eine innen liegende Drehachse. Alternativ ist es auch denkbar, dass der bewegbare Abschnitt der Druckeinrichtung zwischen der geschlossenen Betriebsposition und der geöffneten Wartungsposition translatorisch verschiebbar ist.According to a particularly practical embodiment, the movable portion of the printing device between the closed operating position and the open maintenance position be pivotable, in particular by means of a pivot bearing. For example, the movable section may be pivotable about a pivot axis that is vertical or inclined about an axis of rotation of a rotor of the press. The pressure device can have, for example, an upper and a lower half or housing half, wherein the force measuring device is received between the two halves. It can then the upper or lower half of the printing device from the connected with the lower and upper half closed operating position of the lower or upper half of the printing device are pivoted away in the open maintenance position. The term pivoting also includes a twisting the movable portion of the printing device relative to the remaining, fixed portion of the printing device about a common central axis or an internal axis of rotation. Alternatively, it is also conceivable that the movable portion of the printing device between the closed operating position and the open maintenance position is translationally displaceable.
Nach einer weiteren Ausgestaltung kann die Druckeinrichtung eine Druckrolle umfassen, die im Betrieb der Presse mit dem mindestens einen Pressstempel zusammenwirkt, wobei die Druckrolle an dem bewegbaren Abschnitt der Druckeinrichtung gelagert ist. Das Druckelement der Druckeinrichtung, beispielsweise eine Druckrolle, kann beispielsweise an einer schwenkbaren oberen oder unteren Hälfte angeordnet sein. Gerade bei den üblicherweise sehr schweren Druckrollen bietet die Erfindung somit große Vorteile, da diese für einen Zugang zu der Kraftmesseinrichtung nicht demontiert werden müssen. Außerdem ist der Zugang zu der Kraftmesseinrichtung bei dieser Ausgestaltung besonders einfach möglich. Die Kraftmesseinrichtung kann beispielsweise in einem vertikal verlaufenden Druckrollenbolzen angeordnet sein, an dessen Außenseite die Druckrolle befestigt ist. Natürlich ist es auch möglich, dass die Druckrolle an dem nicht bewegbaren Abschnitt der Druckeinrichtung gelagert ist.According to a further embodiment, the printing device may comprise a pressure roller, which cooperates with the at least one press ram during operation of the press, wherein the pressure roller is mounted on the movable portion of the printing device. The pressure element of the printing device, for example a pressure roller, can be arranged, for example, on a pivotable upper or lower half. Especially with the usually very heavy pressure rollers, the invention thus offers great advantages, since they do not have to be dismantled for access to the force measuring device. In addition, the access to the force measuring device in this embodiment is particularly easy. The force measuring device may for example be arranged in a vertically extending pressure roller bolt, on the outside of the pressure roller is attached. Of course, it is also possible that the pressure roller is mounted on the non-movable portion of the printing device.
Die Erfindung betrifft außerdem eine Rundläuferpresse mit einem um eine vertikale Achse drehbaren Rotor, wobei der Rotor eine obere und eine untere Stempelführung für obere und untere Pressstempel und eine Matrizenscheibe zwischen den Stempelführungen aufweist, wobei die Pressstempel mit Aufnahmen der Matrizenscheibe zusammenwirken, ferner mit mindestens einer Füll- und Dosierstation, sowie wie mindestens einer oberen Druckeinrichtung und mindestens einer unteren Druckeinrichtung, die im Betrieb mit den oberen Pressstempeln zusammenwirken, wobei die obere Druckeinrichtung und/oder die untere Druckeinrichtung in der oben erläuterten erfindungsgemäßen Weise ausgebildet ist. Die Matrizenscheibe kann einstückig ausgebildet sein oder aus einzelnen Matrizensegmenten bestehen. Bei den Aufnahmen kann es sich um sogenannte Matrizenbohrungen handeln. In den Matrizenbohrungen können Matrizenhülsen angeordnet sein. Dies ist aber nicht zwingend erforderlich.The invention also relates to a rotary press having a rotor rotatable about a vertical axis, the rotor having upper and lower punch guides for upper and lower rams and a die plate between the ram guides, the rams cooperating with receptacles of the die plate, and at least one Filling and dosing station, as well as at least one upper pressure device and at least one lower pressure device, which cooperate in operation with the upper ram, wherein the upper pressure device and / or the lower pressure device is formed in the manner described above according to the invention.
