The ar-v rangement is such that rod sections may' be removed, or additional ones added to retract or 50 extend the guiding means.
The strip I2 is shown coming off of a supplyl roll I2. This supply roll is supported upon a shaft 22 rotatively mounted in a suitable sup' porzting bracket 23. The web portion I2 coming 55 of! o! the roll I2' is engaged over a roller 24 which is rotatively supported on a bracket 25 mounted upon the outer end of one of the rods I5. The web I2l continues into a web portion I2 which extends through one of the slots II into the drying chamber I5 and then comes out at another slot II and ensues over another guide element, in the form of a roller 25. This roller 25 is supported in a bearing 21 which is adiustably mounted on a bracket 25. Adjustment screws 25 threadedly engage the bracket and engage with the bearing 21, in a conventional way, so that the bearing may be adjusted upon the bracket. The bracket 25 is provided with a plurality of additional rollers 35, 3I and 32 which engage each other in a series.
The roller 35 is opposed to the roller 25 and engages the bottom side of the strip I2. The roller 32 extends into a tank 33 which is mounted upon the outer end of another one of the rods I5. This particular rod I5 has an auxiliary end portion I5d connected with the rod by a suitable screw and clamp nut 34. The web portion I2b after passing around the roller 26 continues into a web portion I2c which engages over the guide element 35 mounted upon the body of the drying chamber I5. The web portion I2c then extends through the drying chamber and comes out of the other side engaging against another guide roller 35 which is also mounted on the body of the drying chamber. From this point the web portion continues over a guiding element 31, in'the form of a roller, mounted upon a bracket 35 mounted upon the outer end of another one of the rods I5.
The web I2c then continues into a web portion I2d which extends upwards over another guiding roller 39 mounted on the body of the drying chamber I5. 'I'he web I2d then passes through the drying chamber and comes out from the other side engaging against the guide roller 45. From this point the guide roller engages between the roller 4I and a counter-roller 42. These latter rollers are mounted upon a bracket 43 mounted upon an auxiliary outer end I5 of another one of the rods I5. The roller 4I is supported in a bearing. which is adjustabiy mounted on the bracket 43 and is controlled by an adjustment screw 45. The roller 42 is one of a series of rollers which include rollers 45 and 41. The roller 41 engages against the doctor blade edge 48 of a container 49 adapted to hold suitable ink, paint, and the like.
The web section I2d then continues over another guide element 55, in the form of a roller rotatively supported on a bracket 5I in turn supported on another one of the rods I5. The web |24 after passing over the roller 55 continues into a web section I2e which engages upon a roll 53 upon which the material of the strip is drawn. This Yroll 53 is mounted upon the shaft 54 supported on a bracket 55. A drive pulley 55 is also mounted on the shaft 54 and is adapted to be driven by a belt 51 or other driving element receiving its motion from an electric motor or other convenient prime mover.
The roller 55 consists of a plurality alternating spacer sections 55 and disc knives 55h, rotatively held on horizontal bar 55. The disc knives 55b are provided to cut the web I2d to parallel strips I2". The width of these strips may be varied as desired by changing the width of the corresponding spacer section on bar 55.
The left hand end oi' the web section I2b is adapted to be sprayed with a waterprooing substance or other desirable substance. For this purpose an air operated sprayer 55 is provided. manually controlled, and supported upon another one o! the rods I5. This sprayer 55 preierably is for the purpose oi spraying shellac upon the top face of the strip I2. The left hand section of the web I2d is adapted to be colored with printing ink, paint, or other desirable substances which may be applied with a spraying gun 55. This spraying gun is supported on another one of the vrods I5. The gun 55 may be manually operated. Another sprayer 5I is adapted to spray heated paraiiin or other substance upon the right hand section of the web I2d past the rollers 4I and 42. This sprayer gun 5I is shown supported on a rod 52 which is adiustably connected with a support rod 53 by a wing screw and nut device 54.
A means is provided for reciprocating the spray device 55 so as to vary the application of color to the strip. This means includes a follower 55 mounted upon the rod I5 which supports the spray device. This follower 55 engages a cam 55 of a predetermined shape and design. The cam 55 is mounted upon a spindle 51 which is provided with a gear 55 engaged by a chain 55 in turn engaging over a pinion 15 shown mounted on a shaft 1I coaxial with th'e roller 35. 'Ihe roller 35 is xedly mounted on the shaft 1I which in turn is rotatively supported in a bracket 12 mounted upon the body of the drying chamber I5.
The operation of the machine for making wall strips is as follows:
The drive pulley 55 turns the roll 55 and draws the strip I2 through the machine. The path of the strip may be followed by starting at the roll I2'. From the roll, the web I2* passes upwards over the guide roller 24 and continues into the web section I2". At this point the top of the' web section I2b is sprayed with shellac or other iluid from the spray gun 55. The position of the spray gun may be varied by varying the position of the rod I5 so that the shellac or other substance is applied upon the strip I2 in a satisfactory way. The shellacked web portion then passes through one of the openings II into the drying chamber I5. Due to the drying atmosphere within the chamber the shellac readily dries.
The shellacked web then passes out through another one of the openings II and continues into the right hand portion of the web portion I2b. This web portion then passes between the rollers 25 and 35 and at this point the bottom side of the strip is coated with shellac material such as the usual gum material, obtainedfrom the container 33 and transferred by the various transfer rollers. The web section I2c which is now coated with adhesive substance on its bottom side then pmses through the drying chamber I5 so that the adhesive material quickly dries.
The web section I2= then continues into the section I2d which is ornamented with printers ink, paint, or the like, from the spray gun 55. This spray gun 55 is mechanically reciprocated upwards and downwards to various distances from the strip section I2d so as to vary the coloring oi the strip. 'Ihe shape of the cam 55 controls the particular design produced by the spray gun 55. The position of the spray gun 55 may be varied by changing the position of its supporting rod I5 in a way as previously described. The web section I2d then passes aaoaaoi through thev drying chamber I and the ink, paint, and the like then dries.
`'Ihe web then continues to a point between the rollers Il and 42 and then this area. is imprinted with a design. 'I'he roller 42 preferably is engraved with a suitable design which is printed by a printing fluid supplied from the container '49. The web section ind is sprayed with a protective paraliin or other desirable substances by the spray gun 6|. The ornamented strip is then drawn upon the roll 53 and from this roll itmay be subsequently unwound and cut into lengths of various sizes. l
