Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung zum Aufbringen einer dünnen Schicht eines Beschichtungsmaterials auf eine über eine Gegendruckwalze laufende Materialbahn, mit einer einen Düsenschlitz mit feststehender einlaufender Düsenlippe und als drehbarer Rakelstab ausgebildeter ablaufender Düsenlippe aufweisenden Schlitzdüseneinrichtung, einem Vorratsbehälter für das Beschichtungsmaterial und einem Zufuhrkanal zwischen dem Vorratsbehälter und dem Düsenschlitz, der eine genügende Breite aufweist, um das Beschichtungsmaterial kontinuierlich über die Beschichtungsbreite dem Düsenschlitz zuzuführen und dort aufzubringen. Eine derartige Vorrichtung ist beispielsweise durch die DE-C-3100101 bekanntgeworden.The invention relates to a device for applying a thin layer of a coating material to a web of material running over a counter-pressure roller, with a nozzle slot with a fixed inlet nozzle lip and a slot nozzle device designed as a rotatable doctor rod, a storage container for the coating material and a supply channel between the Storage container and the nozzle slot, which has a sufficient width to continuously supply the coating material over the coating width to the nozzle slot and apply it there. Such a device has become known, for example, from DE-C-3100101.

Bei derartigen Beschichtungsvorrichtungen kommt es darauf an, daß das Beschichtungsmaterial über große Breiten von mehreren Metern gleichmäßig über die Breite aufgetragen wird und dementsprechend für eine gleichmäßige und ausreichende Zufuhr von Beschichtungsmaterial entlang des Düsenschlitzes zu sorgen ist.In such coating devices, it is important that the coating material is applied uniformly across the width over large widths of several meters and, accordingly, that a uniform and sufficient supply of coating material is to be provided along the nozzle slot.

Durch die US-A-4 333 420 ist eine Vorrichtung zum Aufbringen von einem oder mehreren dünnen Streifen Leim auf eine oder mehrere, über eine Gegenwalze laufende Materialbahn bekannt geworden. Jeder dünne Leimstreifen wird mittels einer Abgabedüse in einem eigenen Gehäuse aufgebracht, in dem jeweils eine konventionelle Zahnradpumpe mit einem angetriebenen und einem mitlaufenden Pumpenzahnrad fest angeordnet sind. Jedes Gehäuse ist quer und senkrecht zur Materialbahn verschiebbar, die Zahnradpumpen sind mittels eines Stabes mit nichtkreisförmigern Querschnitt proportional der Materialbahngeschwindigkeit gemeinsam angetrieben, der Stab ist zum Anhalten jeder Zahnradpumpe leicht von dieser entfernbar.US-A-4 333 420 discloses a device for applying one or more thin strips of glue to one or more webs of material running over a counter roller. Each thin strip of glue is applied by means of a dispensing nozzle in its own housing, in which a conventional gear pump with a driven and a rotating pump gear are fixedly arranged. Each housing can be moved transversely and perpendicular to the material web, the gear pumps are driven together by means of a rod with a non-circular cross section proportional to the material web speed, the rod can be easily removed from it to stop each gear pump.

Durch die US-A-2474254 ist schließlich eine Vorrichtung zum Imprägnieren von Materialbahnen mit Flüssigkeiten bekannt geworden, die in einem Zufuhrkanal zwischen einem Vorratsbehälter und einem Schlitz eine sich über die Materialbahnbreite verlaufende Zahnradpumpenanordnung aufweist. Die Zahnradpumpenanordnung hat mehrere Pumpenabschnitte mit je zwei Pumpenzahnrädern, die auf zwei durchgehenden Wellen sitzen, wobei die zwei Wellen in kurzen Abstandsstücken zwischen den Pumpenzahnrädern gelagert sind.Finally, US-A-2474254 has disclosed a device for impregnating material webs with liquids, which has a gear pump arrangement extending over the material web width in a feed channel between a storage container and a slot. The gear pump arrangement has a plurality of pump sections, each with two pump gears, which sit on two continuous shafts, the two shafts being mounted in short spacers between the pump gears.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Beschichtungsvorrichtung der eingangs beschriebenen Art zu schaffen, mit der eine ausreichende, einwandfreie und über die gesamte gewünschte Beschichtungsbreite gleichmäßige Zufuhr von Beschichtungsmaterial zu dem Düsenschlitz gewährleistet ist. Gleichzeitig soll sowohl eine einfache Anpassung der Beschichtungsvorrichtung an unterschiedliche Beschichtungsbreiten als auch ein schnelles und einfaches Reinigen der Schlitzdüsenanordnung beim Umrüsten auf unterschiedliche Beschichtungsmaterialien sichergestellt werden.The invention has for its object to provide a coating device of the type described above, with which a sufficient, flawless and uniform supply of coating material is ensured to the nozzle slot over the entire desired coating width. At the same time, both a simple adaptation of the coating device to different coating widths and a quick and easy cleaning of the slot nozzle arrangement when converting to different coating materials are to be ensured.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst,

  • - daß die Vorrichtung in dem Zufuhrkanal eine über die Beschichtungsbreite verlaufende Zahnradpumpenanordnung aufweist,
  • - daß die Zahnradpumpenanordnung mehrere Pumpenabschnitte mit je zwei Pumpenzahnrädern und kurze, die Pumpenzahnräder mit Abstand haltende und lagernde Abstandsstücke zwischen den Pumpenabschnitten aufweist,
  • - daß der Zufuhrkanal zwischen der Zahnradpumpenanordnung und dem Düsenschlitz über die Beschichtungsbreite ununterbrochen und mit einer Länge ausgebildet ist, die ein Mehrfaches seiner Höhe beträgt,
  • - daß die Pumpenzahnräder mit beidseitigen Achsstummeln leicht lösbar in den Abstandsstükken gelagert sind,
  • - daß die Pumpenzahnräder und die zugehörigen Abstandsstücke einzeln leicht entfernbar ausgebildet sind,
  • - und daß die Schlitzdüseneinrichtung zwei Teile aufweist, die um die Pumpenzahnräder herum öffenbar sind.
According to the invention, this object is achieved by
  • that the device in the feed channel has a gear pump arrangement running across the coating width,
  • that the gear pump arrangement has a plurality of pump sections, each with two pump gears, and short spacers between the pump sections, which keep the pump gears at a distance and support them,
  • that the feed channel between the gear pump arrangement and the nozzle slot is continuous over the coating width and of a length which is a multiple of its height,
  • - That the pump gears with stub axles on both sides are easily detachably mounted in the spacers,
  • that the pump gears and the associated spacers are individually easily removable,
  • - And that the slot nozzle device has two parts that can be opened around the pump gears.

Eine derartige Anordnung ermöglicht es, an dem Düsenschlitz eine gleichmäßig über die Beschichtungsbreite verteilte ausreichende Menge an Beschichtungsmaterial zur Verfügung zu stellen, wobei die Anzahl der Pumpenabschnitte entsprechend der gewünschten Beschichtungsbreite gewählt wird und auf einfache und betriebsfreundliche Weise verändert werden kann. Außerdem läßt sich eine einfache, schnelle und gründliche Reinigung der Schlitzdüsenanordnung bei der Änderung von Beschichtungsmaterial vornehmen. Letzteres ist besonders dann von Bedeutung, wenn infolge des Fahrens kleiner Chargen relativ häufig umgerüstet werden muß.Such an arrangement makes it possible to provide a sufficient amount of coating material uniformly distributed over the coating width at the nozzle slot, the number of pump sections being selected in accordance with the desired coating width and being able to be changed in a simple and user-friendly manner. In addition, a simple, quick and thorough cleaning of the slot nozzle arrangement can be carried out when changing the coating material. The latter is particularly important if, due to the driving of small batches, it has to be converted relatively frequently.

Vorteilhaft sind die angetriebenen Pumpenzahnräder über formschlüssig in sie eingreifende Achsverbindungsstücke im Bereich der Abstandsstücke miteinander antriebsfest verbunden. Der Antrieb der angetriebenen Pumpenzahnräder kann damit über einen einzigen Antriebsmotor erfolgen.The driven pump gearwheels are advantageously connected to one another in a drive-proof manner in the region of the spacers by way of axially engaging axial connecting pieces. The driven pump gearwheels can thus be driven by a single drive motor.

Die Abstandsstücke sind zweckmäßig als Kohlelager ausgebildet.The spacers are expediently designed as coal stores.

Die axiale Länge der Pumpenzahnräder beträgt zweckmäßig etwa das zweifache der axialen Länge der Abstandsstücke. Hiermit ergibt sich eine völlig gleichmäßige Verteilung des Beschichtungsmaterials entlang des Düsenschlitzes.The axial length of the pump gears is advantageously about twice the axial length of the spacers. This results in a completely uniform distribution of the coating material along the nozzle slot.

Die Pumpenzahnräder werden bei gängigen und üblichen Beschichtungsvorgängen vorteilhaft mit etwa 10 bis 12 U/min angetrieben.The pump gearwheels are advantageously driven at about 10 to 12 rpm in current and customary coating processes.

Weiter können bei der erfindungsgemäßen Schlitzdüsenanordnung vorteilhaft im Bereich des Zufuhrkanals und der Zahnradpumpenanordnung über die Beschichtungsbreite verlaufende Heiz-oder Kühlkanäle vorgesehen sein, die einen guten Wärmeübergang innerhalb der Schlitzdüseneinrichtung sicherstellen.Furthermore, in the slot nozzle arrangement according to the invention, heating or cooling channels extending over the coating width can advantageously be provided in the area of the feed channel and the gear pump arrangement, which ensure good heat transfer within the slot nozzle device.

Die Wandungen des Vorratsbehälters sind insbesondere für die Verarbeitung von Beschichtungshotmelts zweckmäßig beheizt.The walls of the storage container are expediently heated, in particular for the processing of coating hotmelts.

Weiter ist vorteilhaft zwischen der Zahnradpumpenanordnung und den Düsenlippen der Schlitzdüseneinrichtung ein den Zufuhrkanal verschließender, stangenförmiger Rundschieberverschluß angeordnet, wobei die Schließstange des Rundschieberverschlusses zweckmäßig unter dem Zufuhrkanal in der Nähe der Düsenlippen gelagert ist. Hiermit ergibt sich nicht nur eine erheblich gesteigerte Bedienungsfreundlichkeit beim Umrüsten und Reinigen der Schlitzdüseneinrichtung, sondern auch die Möglichkeit einer verbesserten ansatzfreien Beschichtung der Materialbahn.Furthermore, between the gear pump arrangement and the nozzle lips of the slot nozzle device, a rod-shaped round slide valve closure which closes the supply channel is advantageously arranged, the closing rod of the round slide valve closure being expediently mounted under the supply channel near the nozzle lips. This not only results in a significantly increased user friendliness when converting and cleaning the slot nozzle device, but also the possibility of an improved, coating-free coating of the material web.

Weiter sind die angetriebenen Pumpenzahnräder 14 über formschlüssig in sie eingreifende Achsverbindungsstücke 18 im Bereich der Abstandsstücke 16 miteinander antriebsfest verbunden, wobei der Antrieb sämtlicher Pumpenabschnitte 13 gemeinsam von der Seite 19 der Zahnradpumpenanordnung 12 vorzugsweise mit etwa 10 bis 12 U/min erfolgen kann. Die Abstandsstücke 16 sind vorzugsweise als Kohlelager ausgebildet.The pump gearwheels 14, 15 are mounted in the spacers 16 via axle stubs 17 on both sides. Furthermore, the driven pump gearwheels 14 are connected to one another in a drive-proof manner in the area of the spacers 16 by way of axially engaging axial connecting pieces 18, it being possible for all pump sections 13 to be driven jointly from the side 19 of the gear pump arrangement 12, preferably at about 10 to 12 rpm. The spacers 16 are preferably designed as coal bearings.

Die Schlitzdüseneinrichtung 3 ist bezüglich einer durch die Mittellängsebene 20 zwischen den Pumpenzahnrädern 14, 15 verlaufenden Ebene aufklappbar ausgebildet, wodurch das Umrüsten und Reinigen der Schlitzdüseneinrichtung 3 besonders einfach und betriebsfreundlich durchzuführen ist.The slot nozzle device 3 is designed such that it can be folded open with respect to a plane running through the central longitudinal plane 20 between the pump gear wheels 14, 15, as a result of which the conversion and cleaning of the slot nozzle device 3 can be carried out in a particularly simple and user-friendly manner.

Die axiale Länge der Pumpenzahnräder 14, 15 beträgt vorteilhaft etwa das zweifache der axialen Länge der Abstandsstücke 16, wodurch in jedem Falle eine gleichmäßige Verteilung des Beschichtungsmaterials 7 entlang der Länge des Düsenschlitzes 4 gewährleistet ist.The axial length of the pump gearwheels 14, 15 is advantageously approximately twice the axial length of the spacers 16, which in any case ensures a uniform distribution of the coating material 7 along the length of the nozzle slot 4.

Im Bereich des Zufuhrkanals 10, 11 und der Zahnradpumpenanordnung 12 können zweckmäßig über die Beschichtungsbreite verlaufende Heiz- oder Kühlkanäle 21 vorgesehen sein, um einen guten Wärmeübergang zu gewährleisten.In the area of the supply duct 10, 11 and the gear pump arrangement 12, heating or cooling ducts 21 can expediently be provided over the coating width in order to ensure good heat transfer.

Zwischen der Zahnradpumpenanordnung 12 und den Düsenlippen 5, 6 ist unter dem Zufuhrkanal 11 in der Nähe der Düsenlippen 5, 6 eine Schließstange 22 eines den Zufuhrkanal 11 verschließenden, stangenförmigen Rundschieberverschlusses angeordnet. Dieser Rundschieberverschluß ist nicht nur vorteilhaft bei der Umrüstung und Reinigung der Schlitzdüseneinrichtung 3, sondern stellt auch sicher, daß mit der beschriebenen Schlitzdüseneinrichtung eine ansatzfreie Beschichtung aufgebracht werden kann.Between the gear pump arrangement 12 and the nozzle lips 5, 6, a closing rod 22 of a rod-shaped circular slide valve closing the feed channel 11 is arranged under the feed channel 11 in the vicinity of the nozzle lips 5, 6. This circular slide valve closure is not only advantageous when retrofitting and cleaning the slot nozzle device 3, but also ensures that a coating without coating can be applied with the slot nozzle device described.
