Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of processor being particularly useful for the container of direct printing containers, and a kind of for monitoring in order to process, the especially method of the turn-around machine of printing containers.
Background technology
For the treatment of container, such as, for labelling in the turn-around machine of container and/or printing containers, pending container roughly to move and process unit along the periphery being such as fixed on turn-around machine is still advanced along annular trace introducing after turn-around machine.Pending container can be such as have the beverage bottle of circular cross section or have the specification bottle of non-circular cross section.
Depending on diameter and/or the turned position of container, process unit in suitable radial position along the circumferential registration of processor.Especially with pending container, there is the unit of very little work spacing, as in such as ink jet printing head or analog it should be noted that the location of mistake of container can not cause outwards collides with fixing unit.Error reason is such as make a mistake in the turned position of introducing the container or specification bottle with excessive diameter.
In addition, turn-around machine also uses the equipment element (R ü stelement) being matched with pending container, as the maintenance equipment of such as container or for shielding mutually the enclosure member or the partition wall that protect container.So, such as change machine processes in, mistake be equipped with can cause equally with sensitivity and static unit collide.
Summary of the invention
Therefore, have the demand for the equipment and method for monitoring turn-around machine, thus the container of turnover and/or equipment element can be reliably avoid collide with process unit that is outside, that be fixed on the machine still.
Proposing of task utilizes processor according to claim 1 to solve.Therefore, this processor comprise for along transport track continuously and/or by the transport establishment of productive temp cask, especially rotating disk, with the scanning means of at least one static type profile section for monitoring envelope curve, this envelope curve limits by the container transported in transport establishment according to the rules and/or by the equipment element be assemblied according to the rules in transport establishment.In addition set up scanning means according to the present invention, to determine that whether container/equipment element exceeds distance beyond the side direction of the permission exceeding type profile section, and beyond allow exceed distance time send control signal.Therefore, can identify and be about to collide with process unit and automatic collision free.
Transport track is such as annular trace, and the side direction allowed exceeds distance is that the radial direction of the permission outside relative to annular trace exceeds distance.Alternatively, transport track is straight path, and exceeds distance perpendicular to the side direction that transport rail slash limits permission on the direction towards process unit to be monitored.
Scanning means is such as by the outside of the bracket of docking or the especially fixing annular trace on treaters of analog or movement locus.
Processor is such as labelling and/or printing, especially directly the processor of printing containers.But, also can implement on treaters to container other/further treatment step.Container is such as bottle, especially beverage bottle.
Preferred pin is to the transport section given in advance of processor, and such as machine corner area ground, is limited by the container transported according to the rules and/or the equipment element that assembles according to the rules and monitored envelope curve.When transporting along Circular test; the envelope curve limited by this way can be understood to the surface of imaginary rotary body, and this rotary body is occurred by being arranged in the motion of outside profile in the region of process unit to be protected when transporting of container/equipment element.When straight path, the envelope curve limited by this way can be understood to as lower surface, and this surface is pushed the profile towards process unit to be protected of container/equipment element by straight line and occurs.
The envelope curve limited by this way such as can be changed by the change of the turned position of the container of rotation asymmetry in transport section given in advance.So the following partial sector of this transport section is most important, the envelope curve limited has the minimum lateral spacing with process unit to be protected in this partial sector.In rotating disk, this is following machine corner area, and in this machine corner area, the radial spacing of the pivot center of envelope curve and rotating disk is maximum.
Type profile section to be monitored is such as positioned at outside in other words towards on the height of the section of the container profile of process unit, in this container profile, will maintain specific workplace distance with corresponding process unit.The container do not transported on rotating disk is according to the rules such as the container that the container compared according to the rules has the Container Type of more big circumference and/or diameter, equally also be the container with unallowed turned position devious, if especially by turned position devious the actual envelope curve caused according to above-mentioned restriction meaning laterally along from container to the direction of process unit to be matched beyond the envelope curve limited for the container that transports according to the rules.
According to meaning of the present invention, equipment element especially partition wall and/or enclosure member, as baffle plate, receiving element or transporting equipment or analog.Especially can be understood as: equipment element is assemblied on rotating disk for specific Container Type especially.The equipment element be not assemblied according to the rules on rotating disk equips element especially as follows, the radial or straight line of the envelope curve of its reality is positioned at the outside of the envelope curve being set to cell therefor.
The side direction allowed exceeds distance and can be understood as: allow following actual envelope curve, the highest radial direction that the envelope curve limiting this reality is compared for the envelope curve of the container had enough to meet the need according to the rules/equipment element is external further exceeds distance.Radial direction exceeds distance can for the vertical region of type profile section or the point for type profile section, and the specific height level that namely may collide limits.
Not according to regulation and/or according to the rules transport/assembling container/equipment element collide and can reliably avoid in the following way, namely, beyond allow exceed distance time send control signal, utilize this control signal can import suitable measure for collision free.Such as rotating disk can be stopped through emergency shutdown.Similarly, can also make to want injured process unit to move out from collision area, such as, by promoting or offset ground, especially radially outward away from transport track.
Preferably, scanning means comprise laterally point to transport track direction, such as upcountry point to the tappet of rotating disk, when beyond allow exceed distance, stir tappet Trig control signal.This be can be understood as: potential container/equipment element of colliding and tappet collide and overturn this tappet with following degree, that is, trigger suitable switching process.Tappet such as can be configured to the switch lever with switch contact.Thinkable equally, the motion of tappet by attached troops to a unit sensor, such as, is monitored by the grating of optics, switch contact or analog.Tappet can realize simple, mechanical monitoring and be suitable for scanning container and partition wall and enclosure member picture such as baffle plate or analog equally.
Preferably, tappet comprises the direction having and point to transport track, such as, point to the sensor board of the profile worked in the direction of rotating disk, and this sensor board extends along type profile section with the spacing exceeding distance corresponding to the side direction allowed.Such as, the sensor board for the envelope curve section monitoring cylinder shape roughly has vertically extending profile.When container there is arching and/or continuous print in other words structurized container profile, sensor board can general arrangement be also reverse container profile in the region of type profile section.Similarly, the sensor board for scanning baffle plate also can be matched with the exterior contour worked of baffle plate.
Preferably, tappet comprises following sensor board on its free end, this sensor board has that at least one constructs in height given in advance and points to the lug boss transporting track, this lug boss is corresponding in couples especially as follows with the recess be configured on phase co-altitude of the equipment element be assemblied according to the rules in transport establishment, that is, the equipment element being only matched with sensor board in pairs can move across sensor board without collision.So equipment element and sensor board are according to the meaning acting in conjunction of lock & key.
In addition, at radial oriented equipment element, such as baffle plate with and the sensor board that aligns of this baffle plate between preferable configuration have gap, the trend in this gap is for specifically equipping element, and especially baffle plate has sign.So baffle plate and sensor board are such as configured to the sheet material that corresponds to each other or analog.Therefore, correct the attaching troops to a unit relative to specific Container Type of baffle plate or analog can be checked with simple method.Then, Change Example is carried out as the quantity of the recess corresponded to each other and lug boss, size and/or position for attaching troops to a unit in the equipment element of each specific container and the sensor board that exists for monitoring this equipment element accordingly in the mode with sign.Therefore, can avoid assembling mistakenly the equipment element not matching pending container.
Whether alternatively, also can build other optics or the query facility of electronics on machine, according to the meaning of the key/lock matched each other, this query facility is such as identified by scanning bar code, be the equipment element of the (vessel) class being attached to current loading.Thinkable, prevent from carrying out external member identification with obscuring by the RFID chip on equipment element and tappet/sensor board or two-dimensional bar code (Data-Matrix-code).
Preferably, sensor board comprises the plate segment for structural salient portion that at least one can regulate in the length of sensor board.This is conducive to fast and changes machine flexibly.Preferably, tappet rests on the position of Trig control signal after the operation by collision.This be can be understood as: tappet independently can not be returned to the initial position of this tappet from the position of the switch of Trig control signal.In particular, tappet is intervened by operator and is manually returned in the initial position of this tappet.Which increase following security, that is, do not utilize the equipment element of mistake and/or the container of mistake to process further.
Preferably, scanning means comprises towards transport track, especially the inside orientation in the direction of rotating disk, the side direction that allows for noncontacting measurement exceeds the rangefinder of distance, especially laser range finder or imaging rangefinder.Laser range finder is such as interfeerometry ranging instrument.Imaging rangefinder is such as the camera with attached image evaluation unit.Especially can imaging ground, such as, by contrasting with to the camera imaging of the container transported on rotating disk according to the rules, measure pending container.Imaging range finding is particularly suitable for the turned position of the mistake identifying size containers.Laser ranging is particularly suitable for measuring the surface/profile of transport through laser range finder flexibly.After sending control signal, the scanning means also preferred manual return of contactless work.
Preferably, Construction treatment machine as follows, that is, Trig control signal makes transport establishment's emergency shutdown.Thus, damage treating stations and process unit can reliably be avoided on the one hand.On the other hand, can after emergency shutdown debug reason at once.Such as, so preferred emergency shutdown operator manually intervene, and operates suitable safety switch and remove reason and reset.
Preferably, treatment in accordance with the present invention machine also has at least one outer printer with at least one print head placed that is static, that be especially fixed on rotating disk, and the side direction being greater than permission with the specified print gap of container of this printer exceeds distance.Therefore, it is possible to reliably avoid damaging responsive print head.
Proposing of task equally also utilize according to claim 10, for monitoring in order to process, especially the method for the processor of printing containers solves.Therefore, method according to the present invention comprises the steps: a) to know envelope curve, the container that this envelope curve is transported by the transport track according to the rules along especially annular and/or be assemblied on transporter and the equipment element transported in this way according to the rules by least one and limit; B) determine that the side direction of the permission of the type profile section to be monitored exceeding envelope curve exceeds distance; As long as and c) side direction that monitoring exceedes the reality of type profile section exceeds distance and the side direction of the reality of container/equipment element exceeds the side direction that distance is greater than permission exceeds distance, just sends control signal.
Such as knowing envelope curve in the following way, that is, is the rotary body of the pivot center of wraparound favourable turn by the contour limit being positioned at radially outer of the container/equipment element in the mechanical corner region to be monitored exceeded for the treatment of container.Then, such as, process the workplace distance of the necessity between unit according to container and each, the side direction of permission is exceeded the radial direction that distance is defined as exceeding type profile section to be monitored and exceed distance.In particular, the lateral/radial of permission given in advance as follows exceed distance, that is, avoid container/equipment element and static process unit are collided.Actual lateral/radial exceeds distance and need not measure forcibly.In principle, such as by mechanically operate tappet to determine exceeded allow to exceed distance just enough.However, still contactlessly can be measured as actual value in most important type profile section by the actual envelope curve caused of container/equipment element and compare with the setting value allowed respectively.
Preferably, the workplace distance implementation step b between the process unit directly print at container and being particularly useful for is depended on).In particular, allowed to be less than workplace distance, the radial direction of the print gap of such as ink jet printing head exceeds distance.
Preferably, to setting for the treatment of, implementation step c after the turned position of especially printing adjusts).Therefore, it is possible to guarantee to scan container on such turned position, and then in this turned position, container is processed.Turned position limits about the transport track of container usually.
In the favourable design of method according to the present invention, container right and wrong are rotational symmetric, and for container each for the treatment of advance the turned position come dividually implementation step a) to c).This be can be understood as: machine corner area at least twice ground for each treatment step such as along turn-around machine is implemented according to method of the present invention.Such as, to attach troops to a unit independent envelope curve and checking to each container turned position, in the machine corner area of attaching troops to a unit, especially before arriving attached process unit, the radial direction whether beyond attached permission exceeds distance.
Preferably, in step c) middle inspection, whether container and/or equipment element collide with tappet.Then, Trig control signal can be carried out by tappet being turn to the suitable position of the switch in a straightforward manner.
Preferably, equipment element and tappet provide as the external member with the corresponding profile worked, this be can be understood as: provide tappet and equipment element as follows according to the meaning of lock & key, that is, the equipment element of only mutually coupling and tappet is enable to move across each other when not Trig control signal.Such as, between corresponding equipment element and tappet, construct gap freely, this gap has the trend of sign for each external member, thus avoids turn-around machine mistake and be equipped with the unmatched equipment element with cell therefor.
Preferably, tappet regulated the profile worked and be matched with the profile equipping element.So, preferably automatically tappet is matched with pending Container Type by central control unit, thus makes not match the partition wall of Container Type and/or enclosure member and tappet and collide.
Preferably, in step c) in contactlessly measuring vessel reality exceed distance, especially by optical imagery, laser ranging, ultrasonic wave, magnetic field and/or induction mode.So, can particularly rapidly be matched with the working condition changed according to scanning of the present invention.

The explanatory view of sensor board that Fig. 3 illustrates equipment element and mates in pairs for this reason.
Detailed description of the invention
As Fig. 1 can find out, treatment in accordance with the present invention machine 1 comprises the rotating disk 2 of rotation axis 2a continuous rotation of rotating that is in operation in a preferred embodiment, this rotating disk have multiple circumferentially equally distributed, for the grip unit 3 of pending container 4.For simplicity one of them grip unit 3 is depict only in Fig. 1, this grip unit have rolling disc 3a, for clamp and the centering retainer 3b that can drop on container 4 and analog bracket 3c, two other position representatively only draws the rolling disc 3a with container 4.According to the rules, container 4, especially its mouth area 4a centers about the axis 3d of grip unit 3 and transport track 2b along annular moves.Grip unit 3 carrying container 4, turned position orientation and when extracting operation principle be in principle well-known, be not therefore further elaborated.
In principle, annular transport track 2b can with straight working machine (
) the transport track (not shown) of straight line replace.For this situation, the direction only needing transport track 2b and rotating disk 2 about annular to use according to radially-inwardly in other words radially outer meaning substitute by the following: refer to point to this process unit in other words from attached troops to a unit process unit perpendicular to transport rail slash respectively.
Container 4 can have rotational symmetric cross section, polygonal cross section, with arching with the cross section of the combination of straight circumference or similar cross section.In addition, also structurized vessel surface may be had, the position of such as projection together.Exemplarily, figure 1 illustrates rotational symmetric container 4, on the other hand, figure 2 illustrates following container 4, print in the sidewall areas 4b of the flat or slightly arching on the front side and rear side of container 4 in this embodiment.Sidewall areas 4c between them, that do not carry out printing has the spacing larger with axis 3d compared with sidewall areas 4b to be printed.
Equipment element 5, is assemblied between grip unit 3 as such as baffle plate, when processing, utilizing these equipment elements to shield each other and protecting each container 4.It is interchangeable for equipping element 5 at this, is arranged on rotating disk 2 these equipment elements coupling Container Types.
In addition, schematically depict static scanning means 6 to 8, they are fixed from the outside in the outer of rotating disk 2 by bracket 9 and place.Scanning means 6 to 8 attach troops to a unit on the transporting direction 2c of rotating disk 2 followed by static process unit, refer in this example for the printer 10 by the direct ink jet printing of at least one print head 11.But, in principle it is achieved that only install one of them scanning means or these scanning means are assigned on multiple and/or independent bracket 9.
Scanning means 6 to 8 is for following control, that is, whether the specified envelope curve 12 generated about the pivot center 2a of rotating disk 2 by the container 4 had enough to meet the need according to the rules and/or equipment element 5 is by each container 4 and/or equip element 5 actual sustain within tolerance given in advance.In other words, outwards determined the deviation caused by the container 4 do not had enough to meet the need according to the rules and/or equipment element 5, deviation especially as follows by specified envelope curve 12 on radial direction 12b, it infers to be about to collide with process unit.Particularly to avoid colliding with the print head 11 of rdativery sensitive.Depicting by container 4 specified envelope curve 12 of causing in the partial sector of its turnover track with dotted line in FIG, there is the type profile section 12a of the particular importance of potential collision for assessment of with print head 11 in what also illustrate envelope curve 12 equally.
As especially Fig. 2 can find out, such as have two static scanning means 6,7, it has tappet 6a, 7a and has sensor 6b, 7b of the position for determining tappet 6a, 7a.In addition, have the static scanning means 8 for Contactless Measurement distance, its in the illustrated example by the laser beam 8a schematically described in order to laser ranging.
Schematically depict in fig. 2 by according to the rules for followed by the trend of the process container 4 of the locating envelope curve 12 as dotted circle track given in advance, and by contrast, by the actual envelope curve 13 as annular trace caused of the container 4 ' of not locating according to the rules, there is corresponding larger diameter.In this example, container 4 ' be not oriented in for followed by the turned position that arranges of process, but utilize its wall section 4c not carrying out printing outwards exceed and will collide with print head in the non-stop situation of rotating disk 2 on the other hand.
Depend on specified print gap 14 ground between container 4 and print head 11, define the actual envelope curve 13 caused by each container 4 and exceed exceeding apart from 15 of the permission of the specified envelope curve 12 for the container 4 transported on rotating disk 2 according to the rules.Maximum permission exceed the specified print gap 14 that distance 15 is especially less than print head 11.That is, what only allow each container 4 exceeds distance 15 as follows, exceeds in distance reliably avoid container 4 and collide with print head 11 at these.On the other hand, the container 4 ' of location of mistake causes actual exceeding apart from 16, thus the tappet 6a shown in the right is stirred by container 4 '.
This is applicable to the equipment element 5 (affiliated envelope curve does not illustrate in fig. 2) being configured to baffle plate in this example in the same way.That is, specified envelope curve 12 equally also can be defined for baffle plate or the similar equipment element 5 that together rotates and with to monitor exceeding of allowing the reality of this equipment element compared with distance 15 exceed distance 16.These parameters can for baffle plate or similar equipment element 5 individually, but also jointly can be carried out limiting/monitoring with container 4.
In order to illustrate operation principle, similarly show scanning means 6,7 in fig. 2.Such as, but advantageously, these scanning means are configured with tappet 6a for scanning baffle plate or similar equipment the element 5 and other tappet 7a for scanning container 4, latter case only has a scanning means 6,7,8 such as utilized.
The deflection of tappet 6a, 7a is such as determined by the switch contact be present on sensor 6b, 7b or analog, thus the deflection being depended on the determination of tappet 6a, 7a by the control unit 18 of attaching troops to a unit is to produce control signal 17.In the figure 2 example, the tappet 7a on the left side is in preferably radial initial or ready position 19, and the tappet 6a on the right is in the position of the switch 20 of Trig control signal 17.
Tappet 6a, 7a preferably rest on the position of the switch 20 of Trig control signal 17 after they are stirred by container 4 or equipment element 5.That is, then tappet 6a, 7a must be returned in initial or ready position 19 preferably by operator's intervention.
Contactless range finding by scanning means 8 is particularly useful for scanning vessel faces.Replace or measure addedly as laser beam, also can scan to imaging the surface to be processed of container 4.Such as, the camera images of the actual camera image utilizing scanning means 8 to receive and setting can be compared and infer that from fixed difference in size, the anamorphose with the container characteristics of sign or similar aspect container offsets and/or the turned position of mistake.Scanning means 8 for Contactless Measurement distance also can by ultrasonic wave, magnetic field and/or with induction mode work.
As Fig. 1 schematically illustrates, preferably optionally monitor the type profile section 12a of the particular importance of specified envelope curve 12.So type profile section 12a is preferably the vertical region of container profile/equipment element profile, should perform in this region followed by treatment step.In other words, monitored type profile section 12a is positioned on following height level, and in this height level, container 4 and/or equipment element 5 can collide with print head 11 or other process unit.
Tappet 6a, 7a preferably include the sensor board 6c with the profile 21 worked being matched with envelope curve to be checked respectively on their free ends.Fig. 3 illustrates, sensor board 6c and baffle plate or similar equipment element can be configured to the external member corresponded to each other, the profile 21,22 worked of external member has lug boss and the recess of coupling mutually especially as follows, that is, the sensor board 6c of only paired mutual coupling and equipment element 5 when not Trig control signal 17 move across each other.So the sensor board 6c mutually attached troops to a unit and the meaning acting in conjunction of equipment element 5 according to lock & key, to avoid mistake to be equipped with equipment element 5, especially excessive baffle plate.On the contrary, from the baffle plate that the viewpoint avoiding colliding with print head 11 is too small will be patient.Preferably on baffle plate, be configured with recess, and on sensor board 6c, be configured with corresponding probe or similar lug boss, to make the outside sequestering action of baffle plate not be subject to unnecessary impact.
Sensor board 6c can comprise energy separately along the sections 6d of the length adjustment of sensor board, as this is described by double-head arrow in figure 3, to make the profile 21 worked of sensor board 6c be matched with the profile 22 worked of equipment element 5 to be assembled.But, the sensor version 6c that can not regulate can be used equally.So these sensor boards must replace matchingly when more replacing equipment element 5 for this reason.
So be in alignment with each other out the profile 21,22 that works and be configured with the gap 23 of the trend with sign between corresponding sensor board 6c, 7c and equipment element, the direction of this trend preferably at least changes once.Also the thinkable section being gap 23 and there is waveform and/or tilt to extend.
