Description
<Desc/Clms Page number 1>
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Schweissvorrichtung zur Herstellung einer sich in Durchlaufrichtung erstreckenden Schweissnaht zwischen übereinander liegenden Kunststoffbahnen, mit einer an einer Seite der Vorschubebene der Kunststoffbahnen angeordneten Schweisseinrichtung, der an der andern Seite ein Ambossrad zugeordnet ist, weiters mit Andrückrollen und mit umlaufenden Transportmitteln.
Eine derartige Vorrichtung zeigt beispielsweise die AT-PS Nr. 254506, wobei der Transport der zu verbindenden, einander überlappenden Folienbahnen mittels eines endlosen angetriebenen Bandes erfolgt, das entlang der herzustellenden Schweissnaht auf den Folienbahnen aufliegt. Das Transportband wird von einer erwärmbaren Schweissrolle an die Folienbahnen angepresst, wobei die durch das Transportband übertragene Wärme die Verbindung herstellt. An der der Schweissrolle gegenüberliegenden Seite der Folienbahnen ist als Ambossrad eine wärmeisolierte Tragwalze vorgesehen. Zu beiden Seiten der Schweissrolle sind lose drehbare Laufrollen gelagert, durch die die Dicke des verschweissten Überlappungsbereiches gleich der Dicke der Folienbahnen gehalten wird.
Da im Schweissbereich eine Erweichung des Materials stattfindet, sind auf Grund des Transportes durch die Einrichtung Längsdehnungen nur durch eine entsprechende breite und lange Anlagezone des Transportbandes beherrschbar, das dabei im Anschluss an den Schweissbereich meist zusätzlich wieder gekühlt werden muss.
Eine weitere Schweisseinrichtung zeigt die AT-PS Nr. 325298, bei der eine gegebenenfalls antreibbare Rolle und eine um eine senkrecht verlaufende Achse angetriebene, lichtdurchlässige Scheibe zusammenwirken, zwischen denen die Folienbahnen transportiert werden. Die Schweissenergie wird dabei von einer Lichtquelle an der andern Seite der lichtdurchlässigen Scheibe abgegeben.
Durch die parallel zu den Folienbahnen sich drehende Scheibe wird der erwärmte Schweissbereich an der Seite der Scheibe Längs- und Querdehnungen unterworfen.
Nach der AT-PS Nr. 289376 wirkt ein angetriebenes, mit einer Schneide versehenes Schweissrad, das direkt erwärmt wird, mit einem gekühlten Gegendrucklager aus festen Profilschienen zusammen, wobei das Schweissrad einen festen Niederhalter für die Folienbahnen durchdringt. An beiden Seiten wird bei dieser Vorrichtung der erwärmte Schweissbereich Längsdehnungen unterworfen, wobei zusätzlich zum angetriebenen Trennschweissrad ein Transportantrieb für die Folienbahnen erforderlich ist.
Die gleichen Probleme treten auf, wenn das Verschweissen mittels eines Ultraschallwerkzeuges erfolgt, dem ein drehbares Ambossrad gegenüberliegt (vgl. DE-OS 1604733). Dabei ist es belanglos, ob das Ultraschallwerkzeug selbst drehbar ist, wie dies die GB-PS Nr. 1, 167, 549 und Nr. 2, 062, 538 zeigen, da dieses Werkzeug und das damit zusammenwirkende Ambossrad notwendigerweise an den Bahnen angreifen, wo diese am stärksten erweicht sind.
Die Erfindung hat es sich nun zur Aufgabe gestellt, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art so auszubilden, dass der erwärmte Schweissbereich möglichst geringen Längsdehnungen unterworfen wird, und dabei ein möglichst einfacher Aufbau ohne zusätzlichen Transportantrieb erreicht wird.
Erfindungsgemäss wird dies dadurch erreicht, dass als Schweisseinrichtung in an sich bekannter Weise ein mit einem antreibbaren Ambossrad versehenes Ultraschallschweisswerkzeug vorgesehen ist, und dass zu beiden Seiten des Ambossrades unmittelbar anschliessend je eine antreibbare Transportrolle für die Kunststoffbahnen vorgesehen ist, der an der andern Seite der Vorschubebene der Kunststoffbahnen eine vorzugsweise lose drehbare Andrückrolle gegenüberliegt, wobei die beiden Transportrollen auf der Antriebswelle befestigt sind und die Andrückrollen das Ultraschallschweisswerkzeug flankieren.
Dabei ist es an sich bekannt (AT-PS Nr. 345181), auf der Antriebswelle von einem Paar von Schneidrädern, die zur Ausbildung von Einritzungen, und Einschnitten in einem Papierstreifen bei der Herstellung von Zigarettenpackungen eingesetzt werden, zusätzliche Transportrollen zwischen den Schneidrädern vorzusehen. Hiebei wird jedoch nur ein sicherer Transport des Papierstreifens bezweckt, der selbstverständlich keinen Längs- oder Querdrehungen auf Grund einer Materialerweichung unterworfen wird.
Bei der erfindungsgemässen Vorrichtung werden die zu verschweissenden Folienbahnen in den beiden seitlich an den vom Ultraschallschweisswerkzeug erwärmten Schweissbereich unmittelbar
<Desc/Clms Page number 2>
angrenzenden Abschnitten von den Transportrollen ergriffen. Es findet daher praktisch keine oder nur eine vernachlässigbare Längsdehnungsbeanspruchung der erweichten Folienbahnen statt. Dass die beiden Transportrollen auf der Antriebswelle zu beiden Seiten des Ambossrades befestigt sind, wobei die Andrückrollen das Ultraschallschweisswerkzeug flankieren, vereinfacht den Aufbau der Vorrichtung wesentlich. Die auf ein örtliches Minimum beschränkte Wärmeeinwirkung erübrigt im allgemeinen auch eine zusätzliche Kühleinrichtung.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung der Erfindung ist dabei vorgesehen, dass jede Transportrolle eine Umfangsrille aufweist, in die ein Ring aus elastischem Material angelegt ist, wie dies gemäss GB-PS Nr. 2, 062, 538 für die Ambossrolle vorgesehen ist. Hiebei kann es sich beispielsweise um eine Gummirundschnur od. dgl. handeln, durch die auch ein geringer Schlupf zwischen den Folienbahnen und den Transportrollen vermieden wird. Die wirksame Fläche des Ambossrades weist für die blosse Ausbildung von Schweissnähten eine der Leistung des Ultraschallschweisswerkzeuges angepasste Breite auf. Soll mit der Vorrichtung jedoch gleichzeitig auch eine Längstrennung des verschweissten Streifens vorgenommen werden, so sieht eine weitere Ausführung der Erfindung vor, dass das Ambossrad wie an sich bekannt, umfangsmittig eine Schneide aufweist.
Es ergeben sich dadurch verschiedene Querschnittsformen des Umfangsringbereiches des Ambossrades, die für die blosse Verschweissung beispielsweise rechteckig oder trapezförmig, für eine gleichzeitige Durchtrennung beispielsweise dreieckig oder aus diesen Grundformen zusammengesetzt sein können.
Nachstehend wird nun die Erfindung an Hand der Zeichnungen in einer Ausführung näher beschrieben, ohne darauf beschränkt zu sein. Fig. 1 zeigt eine schematische Ansicht der Vorrichtung in Durchlaufrichtung der Kunststoffbahnen, Fig. 2 eine Seitenansicht der Vorrichtung und Fig. 3 vergrössert einen Abschnitt aus dem unmittelbaren Schweiss- und Transportbereich.

The invention relates to a welding device for producing a welding seam extending in the direction of passage between superimposed plastic webs, with a welding device arranged on one side of the feed plane of the plastic webs and associated with an anvil wheel on the other side, further with pressure rollers and with rotating means of transport.
Such a device is shown, for example, in AT-PS No. 254506, the transport of the overlapping film webs to be connected being carried out by means of an endless driven belt which lies on the film webs along the weld seam to be produced. The conveyor belt is pressed onto the film webs by a heatable welding roller, the heat transferred by the conveyor belt making the connection. On the side of the film webs opposite the welding roll, a heat-insulated support roller is provided as the anvil wheel. Loosely rotatable rollers are mounted on both sides of the welding roller, by means of which the thickness of the welded overlap area is kept equal to the thickness of the film webs.
Since the material softens in the welding area, due to the transport by the device, longitudinal expansions can only be controlled by a correspondingly wide and long contact zone of the conveyor belt, which usually has to be cooled again after the welding area.
Another welding device is shown in AT-PS No. 325298, in which an optionally drivable roller and a translucent disk driven about a vertical axis interact, between which the film webs are transported. The welding energy is emitted by a light source on the other side of the translucent pane.
Due to the disc rotating parallel to the film webs, the heated welding area on the side of the disc is subjected to longitudinal and transverse expansions.
According to AT-PS No. 289376, a driven welding wheel with a cutting edge, which is heated directly, interacts with a cooled counter-pressure bearing made of solid profiled rails, the welding wheel penetrating a fixed hold-down device for the film webs. In this device, the heated welding area is subjected to longitudinal expansions on both sides, a transport drive for the film webs being required in addition to the driven separating welding wheel.
The same problems occur if the welding is carried out by means of an ultrasound tool which is opposite a rotatable anvil wheel (cf. DE-OS 1604733). It is irrelevant whether the ultrasound tool itself can be rotated, as shown in GB-PS No. 1, 167, 549 and No. 2, 062, 538, since this tool and the anvil wheel interacting with it necessarily engage the webs where these are most softened.
The object of the invention is now to design a device of the type mentioned in the introduction in such a way that the heated welding area is subjected to the least possible longitudinal strains, and the simplest possible construction is achieved without an additional transport drive.
According to the invention, this is achieved in that an ultrasonic welding tool provided with a drivable anvil wheel is provided as a welding device in a manner known per se, and that a drivable transport roller for the plastic webs is provided on both sides of the anvil wheel, which is on the other side of the feed plane the plastic webs is opposite a preferably loosely rotatable pressure roller, the two transport rollers being fastened to the drive shaft and the pressure rollers flanking the ultrasonic welding tool.
It is known per se (AT-PS No. 345181) to provide additional transport rollers between the cutting wheels on the drive shaft of a pair of cutting wheels which are used to form incisions and cuts in a paper strip in the manufacture of cigarette packs. However, the purpose of this is only to securely transport the paper strip, which of course is not subjected to longitudinal or transverse rotations due to material softening.
In the device according to the invention, the film webs to be welded directly in the two to the side of the welding area heated by the ultrasonic welding tool
<Desc / Clms Page number 2>
adjacent sections seized by the transport rollers. There is therefore practically no or only negligible longitudinal strain on the softened film webs. The fact that the two transport rollers are fastened to the drive shaft on both sides of the anvil wheel, the pressure rollers flanking the ultrasonic welding tool, simplifies the construction of the device considerably. The heat effect, which is limited to a local minimum, generally also makes an additional cooling device unnecessary.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is provided that each transport roller has a circumferential groove into which a ring made of elastic material is placed, as is provided for the anvil roller according to GB-PS No. 2, 062, 538. This can be, for example, a round rubber cord or the like, by means of which a small amount of slippage between the film webs and the transport rollers is avoided. The effective surface of the anvil wheel has a width adapted to the performance of the ultrasonic welding tool for the mere formation of weld seams. However, if the device is also to be used for longitudinal separation of the welded strip at the same time, a further embodiment of the invention provides that the anvil wheel, as is known per se, has a cutting edge in the center.
This results in different cross-sectional shapes of the circumferential ring area of the anvil wheel, which can be rectangular or trapezoidal for mere welding, triangular for simultaneous cutting or composed of these basic shapes.
The invention will now be described in more detail in one embodiment with reference to the drawings, without being limited thereto. 1 shows a schematic view of the device in the direction of passage of the plastic webs, FIG. 2 shows a side view of the device and FIG. 3 enlarges a section from the immediate welding and transport area.
The device according to the invention has a standing ultrasonic welding tool --7--
EMI2.1
3) - preferably loosely rotatably mounted. On the other side of the two plastic webs --3-- to be connected by a longitudinal seam, an anvil wheel --5-- is arranged on a drive shaft --2-- opposite the working part of the ultrasonic welding tool. The drive shaft --2-- is rotated by a drive part-l-. On both sides of the anvil wheel --5--, a transport roller --4-- is attached to the drive shaft --2--, which has a circumferential groove. A ring --6-- made of elastic material is inserted into this. The transport rollers --4-- are arranged directly opposite the pressure rollers 9.
As can be seen in particular from FIG. 3, the transport rollers --4-- and the pressure rollers --9-- record the immediate neighboring area of the welding area of the two plastic sheets --3--, in which no significant heating takes place. The welding area in between, in which the film webs soften, is therefore subject to at most an insignificant longitudinal rotation, with localized heating only limited to this zone, which makes subsequent cooling unnecessary.
EMI2.2
Have 3-surface plastic sheets. The embodiment of the device according to the invention shown in the drawings is now intended for simultaneous longitudinal cutting of the welded plastic sheets -3--.
The anvil wheel --5-- is therefore provided with a cutting edge --10-- around the circumference, which cuts the weld seam that forms. The anvil wheel --5-- shown in the partial section in FIG. 1 can therefore also have a different cross-sectional shape in the circumferential ring region. For example, a narrow, axially parallel circumferential area could follow on both sides of the cutting edge --10--
