Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Beschichten von Abstandhalterrahmen für Isolierglasscheiben mit Klebe- bzw. Dichtmasse mit den Merkmalen des einleitenden Teils des unabhängigen Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a device for coating spacer frames for insulating glass panes with adhesive or sealing compound with the features of the introductory part of the independent claim 1.

Vorrichtungen zum Beschichten von Abstandhalterrahmen für Isolierglas mit Klebe- bzw. Dichtmasse sind bekannt. Beispielsweise wird auf die US 4 949 666 A verwiesen.Devices for coating spacer frames for insulating glass with adhesive or sealant are known. For example referred to US 4,949,666 A.

Alle bekannten Vorrichtungen zum Beschichten von Abstandhalterrahmen besitzen zwei oder mehr Anpreßrollen, die den zwischen den Düsen, aus welchen das Dicht- bzw. Klebemittel auf die Seitenwände des Abstandhalterrahmens für Isolierglasscheiben aufgetragen wird, durchgeführten Abschnitt des Abstandhalterrahmens gegen das Transportband der Förderbahn drücken. Die Anpreßrollen liegen bei den bekannten Vorrichtungen an der Innenwand der den Abstandhalterrahmen bildenden Hohlprofilleiste an. Dies bedeutet, daß die Anpreßrollen nicht nur weggeschwenkt werden müssen, wenn sich die von der Förderbahn nach oben ragenden Schenkel des Abstandhalterrahmens während des Beschichtungsvorganges an den Anpreßrollen vorbeibewegen, sondern daß diese auch weggeschwenkt werden müssen, wenn mit Sprossen versehene Abstandhalterrahmen mit Klebe- bzw. Dichtmasse beschichtet werden. Darüber hinaus bewirken die Anpreßrollen der bekannten Vorrichtungen keine seitliche Führung, d.h. keine Führung quer zur Ebene des Abstandhalterrahmens, so daß bei den bekannten Vorrichtungen in Bewegungsrichtung des Abstandhalterrahmens gesehen vor den Düsen Führungselemente, z.B. in Form von Rollen, vorgesehen sind, um den Abstandhalterrahmen exakt zwischen den Düsen zu führen.All known devices for coating spacer frames have two or more pressure rollers that hold the one between the nozzles, from which the sealant or adhesive on the side walls of the Spacer frame for insulating glass panes is applied, performed section of the spacer frame against the conveyor belt press the conveyor track. The pressure rollers are with the known devices on the inner wall of the spacer frame forming hollow profile strip. This means that the pressure rollers not only have to be swung away when moving away from the conveyor upstanding leg of the spacer frame during of the coating process to move past the pressure rollers, but that they also have to be swung away if they have rungs provided spacer frame coated with adhesive or sealing compound become. In addition, the pressure rollers of the known devices no lateral guidance, i.e. no guidance across Level of the spacer frame, so that in the known devices seen in the direction of movement of the spacer frame in front of the Nozzle guide elements, e.g. in the form of rolls, are provided to to guide the spacer frame exactly between the nozzles.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die bekannten Vorrichtungen dahingehend zu verbessern, daß die Antriebsrollen nicht nur den nötigen Kraftschluß zwischen dem Förderband der Förderbahn und dem Abstandhalterrahmen bewirken, sondern den Abstandhalterrahmen auch seitlich führen und daß die nicht immer hochgeschwenkt werden müssen, wenn sich eine Sprosse an den Anpreßrollen vorbeibewegt, während ein Abstandhalterrahmen beschichtet wird.The invention has for its object the known devices to improve in that the drive rollers not only the necessary adhesion between the conveyor belt of the conveyor track and effect the spacer frame, but the spacer frame also lead sideways and that they are not always swung up if a rung moves past the pressure rollers, while a spacer frame is being coated.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teils des unabhängigen Anspruches 1 gelöst.According to the invention, this object is characterized by the features of the Part of independent claim 1 solved.

Bevorzugte und vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.Preferred and advantageous embodiments are the subject of Subclaims.

Dadurch, daß gemäß der Erfindung die Anpreßrollen an dem auf der Förderbahn aufliegenden sich zwischen den Beschichtungsdüsen durchbewegenden Schenkel des Abstandhalterrahmens lediglich im Bereich der seitlichen Ränder der Innenfläche des Abstandhalterrahmens angreifen, brauchen diese nur mehr hochgeschwenkt werden, wenn sich von der Förderbahn nach oben abstehende Schenkel des Abstandhalterrahmens an den Anpreßrollen vorbeibewegen, während der Abstandhalterrahmen beschichtet wird. Wenn sich im Inneren des Abstandhalterrahmens angeordnete Sprossen an den Anpreßrollen vorbeibewegen, können die Anpreßrollen an dem auf der Förderbahn aufliegenden Schenkel weiterhin angreifen. Dadurch wird der Steuerungsaufwand wesentlich vereinfacht und es entfallen Vorrichtungen, die Sprossen erfassen und das Hochschwenken der Anpreßrollen auslösen.Characterized in that according to the invention, the pressure rollers on the Conveyor track lying moving between the coating nozzles Leg of the spacer frame only in the area the lateral edges of the inner surface of the spacer frame attack, they only need to be swiveled up when Legs of the spacer frame protruding upwards from the conveyor track move past the pressure rollers while the spacer frame is coated. If inside the spacer frame move the arranged rungs past the pressure rollers, can the pressure rollers on the lying on the conveyor Continue to attack thighs. This increases the control effort significantly simplified and there are no devices, the rungs Detect and trigger the swiveling of the pressure rollers.

Wenn gemäß einem Vorschlag der Erfindung vorgesehen ist, daß jeweils zwei Anpreßrollen einander gegenüberliegend angeordnet sind, ergibt sich eine besonders sichere Führung des auf der Förderbahn aufliegenden Schenkels des Abstandhalterrahmens.If according to a proposal of the invention it is provided that each two pressure rollers are arranged opposite each other, results secure guidance of the material lying on the conveyor track Leg of the spacer frame.

In einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Anpreßrollen gestufte Rollen sind, deren Teil mit kleinerem Durchmesser im Bereich des Außenrandes der Innenfläche und deren senkrecht zur Drehachse ausgerichtete Kreisringfläche an Seitenflächen der Hohlprofilleiste anliegen. Diese Ausführungsform hat den Vorteil, daß die Anpreßrollen ausschließlich im Bereich der oberen Längskanten des auf der Förderbahn aufliegenden Schenkels des Abstandhalterrahmens angreifen und dennoch eine sichere Führung bewirkt wird. Dabei kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Kreisringflächen die Seitenflächen der Hohlprofilleiste nur in ihrem der Innenfläche benachbarten Bereich berühren. Dies ergibt den Vorteil, daß eine auf die Seitenflächen der Hohlprofilleisten aufgetragene Klebe- bzw. Dichtmasse von den Anpreßrollen nicht berührt wird. In one embodiment of the invention it can be provided that the Pressure rollers are stepped rollers, their part with a smaller diameter in the area of the outer edge of the inner surface and its vertical circular ring surface on side surfaces aligned with the axis of rotation of the hollow profile strip. This embodiment has the advantage that the pressure rollers only in the area of the upper Longitudinal edges of the leg of the spacer frame resting on the conveyor track attack and still brings about safe leadership becomes. It can be provided that the annular surfaces Side surfaces of the hollow profile strip only in their inner surface touch the adjacent area. This gives the advantage that one on the side surfaces of the hollow profile strips applied adhesive or Sealant is not touched by the pressure rollers.

In einer alternativen Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Anpreßrollen Konusrollen sind, deren Konusflächen an den Seitenrändern der Innenfläche der den Abstandhalterrahmen bildenden Hohlprofilleiste anliegen. Diese Ausführungsform hat den Vorteil, daß die Anpreßrollen zwecks Anpassung an unterschiedliche Profilabmessungen lediglich in einer Richtung verstellbar sein müssen.In an alternative embodiment of the invention can be provided be that the pressure rollers are conical rollers, the conical surfaces the side edges of the inner surface of the spacer frame forming Apply hollow profile bar.

Bevorzugt ist dabei, daß die Anpreßrollen in Richtung ihrer Achse verstellbar gehaltert sind, was eine einfache Konstruktion erlaubt.It is preferred that the pressure rollers in the direction of their axis are adjustable, which allows a simple construction.

In bestimmten Fällen kann gemäß der Erfindung zusätzlich vorgesehen sein, daß der Abstand der Anpreßrollen von dem Förderband der Förderbahn veränderbar ist. Diese Ausführungsform erlaubt es, die Anpreßrollen, auch wenn sie gestufte Rollen sind, allen möglichen und in der Praxis vorkommenden Profilquerschnittsformen anzupassen.In certain cases, the invention can additionally provide be that the distance of the pressure rollers from the conveyor belt of the conveyor track is changeable. This embodiment allows the Pressure rollers, even if they are stepped rollers, of all kinds and adapt existing profile cross-sectional shapes.

Die Anpreßrollen 10 sind bei der in Fig. 1 gezeigten Ausführungsform einander gegenüberliegende, also paarweise angeordnete, gestufte Rollen, die mit ihrem durchmesserkleineren Abschnitt 11 am seitlichen Rand der Innenfläche 6 des Abstandhalterrahmens 2 anliegen und diesen gegen das Förderband 1 der Förderbahn drücken. Mit den senkrecht zur Drehachse ausgerichteten Kreisringflächen 12 liegen die Anpreßrollen 10 an den oberen Enden der Seitenflächen 4 der Hohlprofilleiste 5 des Abstandhalterrahmens 2 an. Dadurch wird eine seitliche Führung der auf dem Förderband 2 aufliegenden Schenkel des Abstandhalterrahmens 2 erreicht. Aus Fig. 1 ist auch ersichtlich, daß die Anpreßrollen 10 nicht weggeschwenkt werden brauchen, wenn sich beim Beschichtungsvorgang eine Sprosse 15 zwischen den Anpreßrollen 10 hindurchbewegt. Lediglich am Beginn und am Ende eines Beschichtungsvorganges eines Schenkels des Abstandhalterrahmens 2 werden die Anpreßrollen 10 hochgeschwenkt, so daß der von der Förderbahn 1 nach oben abstehende Schenkel des Abstandhalterrahmens 2 die Anpreßrollen 10 ungehindert passieren kann. Je nach den Erfordernissen ist in der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung wenigstens ein Paar Anpreßrollen 10 vorgesehen. Bevorzugt sind zwei Paare Anpreßrollen 10 vorgesehen, und zwar ein Paar vor und ein Paar nach den Düsen, mit welchen Dicht- bzw.
