Abstract

Brush arrangement for cleaning a running belt, comprises a rotatable brush 3 located in free-running contact with the belt surface to be cleaned. The axis of rotation 2 of the brush is disposed in a plane parallel to the surface of the belt at an acute angle ( alpha ) with respect to the transverse direction 5 of the belt. <IMAGE>

Description

SPECIFICATION Brush arrangement for cleaning belts The invention relates to a brush arrangement for cleaning the belt of a folding box sticking machine or the like, during the operation of the machine, with a rotating brush located below the underside of the belt to be cleaned, the spindle of which brush is located in a plane parallel to the surface of the belt to be cleaned.
Brush arrangements of this type serve the purpose of cleaning from the belt dust produced during operation and impurities deposited by the folding box blanks and thus of maintaining the grip of the belt. In known brush arrangements of this type, the spindle of the brush is arranged parallel to the transverse direction of the belt. In order to achieve the speed differential between the surface of the belt and the surface of the brush necessary for cleaning, the brush is either driven at a peripheral speed varying from the belt speed or the drive is achieved by the belt itself, while the brush is slowed down.In the known brush arrangements it is a drawback that as a result of their above described construction, when the brush hairs are detached, dust and impurities are thrown from the surface of the belt in the longitudinal direction of the belt and thus may resettle partly on the belt.
It is the object of the invention to provide a brush arrangement of the afore-described type, which requires neither a separate drive nor a braking device and which provides more effective cleaning of the belt.
This object is achieved according to the invention due to the fact that the spindle of the rotating brush is arranged at an acute angle with respect to the transverse direction of the belt and that the rotating brush is in free-running contact with the belt to be cleaned.
This construction of the brush arrangement provides a relative movement of the brush hairs at right angles to the belt, due to which the dust and impurities are thrown to the side and not back onto the belt. Furthermore, self-cleaning of the brush occurs due to the relative movement according to the pre-set angle. The brush arrangement has a simple construction, since the drive for the brush is produced by the belt itself.
The angle of the spindle of the brush with respect to the transverse direction of the belt advantageously amounts to approximately 1 50.
Furthermore, the rotating brush is appropriately constructed as a cylinder with a height greater than the width of the belt and the central point of the brush is arranged at right angles below the central longitudinal axis of the belt to be cleaned.
It is thus ensured that the brush is in contact with the belt over the entire width of the belt.
One embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the drawings and is described in detail hereafter: Figure 1 is a diagrammatic side view of a brush arrangement with diagrammatic illustration of the periphery of the brush in the center of the belt and Figure 2 is a view of the brush arrangement according to figure 1 from below, partly in section.
The brush arrangement illustrated in the drawing comprises a support 1, on which the spindle 2 of a rotating brush 3 is attached below the underside of a belt 4 to be cleaned so that the hairs of the brush are in contact with the surface of the belt 4 and the brush 3 running freely on the spindle 2 is driven by the belt 4.
The spindle 2 of the brush 3 is arranged in a plane parallel to the surface of the belt 4 and at an acute angle (r with respect to the transverse direction 5 of the belt. This causes a relative movement of the brush hairs at right angles to the belt 4, due to which the dust and the like picked up by the brush hairs from the belt 4 are thrown to the side and not back onto the belt. Due to the relative movement of the brush hairs with respect to the belt 4, self-cleaning of the brush occurs.
The brush 3 has a cylindrical construction with a height which is somewhat greater than the width of the belt to be cleaned. The central point M of the brush 3 is arranged at right angles below the central longitudinal axis 6 of the belt 4. Due to this the surface of the belt 4 is in contact with the brush hairs over its entire width.
The construction of the brush arrangement described is simple and leads to troublefree cleaning of the belt 4 to be cleaned, with selfcleaning of the brush 3 during operation of the machine, in which the belt 4 to be cleaned is incorporated. The brush arrangement has a long service life and is largely maintenance-free.
1. Brush arrangement for cleaning a running belt, comprising a rotatable brush located in freerunning contact with the belt surface to be cleaned, the axis of rotation of the brush being disposed in a plane parallel to the surface of the belt at an acute angle (cur) with respect to the transverse direction of the belt.
2. Brush arrangement as claimed in claim 1, wherein the angle (r) of the spindle of the brush with respect to the transverse direction of the belt amounts to approximately 150.
3. Brush arrangement as claimed in claim 1 or 2, wherein the brush is constructed in the form of a cylinder with a height greater than the width of the belt and a central point of the brush in plan is arranged at right angles below the central longitudinal axis of the belt to be cleaved.
4. A brush arrangement substantially as herein described with reference to and as illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
