Definitions

  • a squeegee device contains wearing parts, which often have to be replaced.
  • the device is susceptible to contamination and requires frequent cleaning. Also for this purpose, individual components must be removed and replaced if necessary.
  • a squeegee device is out of the DE-A1 10 2004 029 565 known.
  • the clamping tube and also the pressure hose is received in a retaining strip.
  • the retaining strip is connected to the head part, ie the doctor bed.
  • the retaining strip at the same time forms the foot part of the exchangeable doctor unit, which is held in a holder or in Rakeltragbalken.
  • the clamping hose is an integral part of the foot part of the doctor unit.
  • This embodiment has the advantage that the doctor unit - ie head part or doctor bed together with the doctor bar, retaining strip or foot part together with clamping hose - can be removed from the doctor blade holder or the supporting doctor bar. The cleaning of the seat of the doctor unit can thereby significantly faster.
  • clamping hose is always arranged on the side of the doctor unit which faces away from the medium (this is the same side on which the rear side of the head part or of the doctor bed is located and which faces away from the doctor bar pressed against the running substrate) he protected against contamination by the application medium when doctoring or leveling.
  • the contact pressure element is a non-integral part of the head part and is accommodated in an external pressure device and acts from the outside on the rear side of the head part or the doctor bed opposite the groove.
  • At least one sealing tube for the head part or the doctor bed is provided.
  • a single sealing tube above or below the doctor rod receiving groove and also when using a second sealing tube (below and above the doctor rod receiving groove) can be acted upon by the sealing tube sealing lip so press against the metering rod, that the metering rod is performed better for a better and on the other hand, the seat of the metering rod is less susceptible to contamination.
  • the doctor bar can much faster and easier to remove from the doctor bed as without the presence of the or the sealing hoses. This helps to reduce service and maintenance times and, consequently, reduce coater downtime, which in turn increases productivity.
  • the invention also relates to a coating machine for applying a liquid to pasty application medium, for example coating paint on a running substrate, wherein the substrate is the surface of a running paper, board or other fibrous web and the surface of a transfer element in the case of direct application which dispenses the application medium to the fibrous web.
  • the coating machine according to the invention has a against the current underground doctor blade device with a replaceable doctor unit for metering and / or leveling of the applied application medium according to one or more of claims 1 to 12.
  • a per se known coating machine can be easily retrofitted with the inventive devices or a combined device.
  • a modular composite doctor blade device is shown in each case, which is arranged downstream of a coating machine not shown with applicator and the metering and / or leveling of a coating medium 1, for example, coating paint on a running surface 2 is used.
  • This ongoing background 2 is for clarity only in the FIG. 1 marked with.
  • Underground 2 should be in the examples given a running, to be refined paper or board web.
  • the doctor device comprises a replaceable doctor unit 3, which consists of a head part 4, a foot part 5 and a clamping tube 6.
  • the head part 4 serves as a doctor bed 7 for a rotatable circular-cylindrical doctor rod 8 as a doctor element (ie metering or leveling element) for the application medium 1.
  • the doctor bed 7 has a receptacle or a groove 9 for the doctor bar 8 rotatable therein.
  • the doctor bed 7 also has two sealing lips 7.1 and 7.2, which seal the doctor blade against contamination.
  • the foot part 5 carries the head part 4 and the doctor bed 7 and is also held in a support beam 10. This is done with the integrated in the foot part 5 terminal tube 6.
  • the foot part 5 has for this purpose a specially molded bracket 11th on, in which the clamping tube 6 is inserted.
  • the head part 4 and the metering rod 8 are for the purpose of metering or leveling of the applied application medium 1 with a pressing element 12 against the substrate to be coated 2 pressed.
  • Abgerakeltes medium flows along a front side 13 in a likewise only in this FIG. 1 illustrated gutter 14th
  • the doctor device for the contact pressure 12 has a pressing device 15.
  • This is an external assembly and consists of a holding body 16, a pressure bar 17 with bracket 18, which receives the contact pressure element 12, in particular a pressure hose 12.1 and an adjusting device 19 has.
  • the pressing element 12, ie the Anpressschlauch 12.1 shown here is thus a non-integral part of the head part 4 and acts from the outside on the groove 9 opposite the back 20 of the head part 4 and the doctor bed 7 a.
  • the support beam 10, also referred to as a doctor blade holder or doctor bar, is otherwise designed to be swingable away from the substrate 2 to be coated for the purpose of replacing the doctor unit 3.
  • FIG. 1 also shows that the foot part 5 is positioned on a contact surface 21 of the doctor beam 10. As a result, a reproducible position of the entire doctor unit 3 is created.
  • a flexible section 22 is present between the head part 4 and the foot part 5.
  • a bending point 22.1 has been selected.
  • the flexible portion 22 could also have an unillustrated pivot for the purpose of tilting or pivoting movement.
  • the bending point 22.1 shown here can be designed, for example, as a notch or as a constriction or in the form of a leaf spring.
  • the flexible section 22 is indicated only by a dashed circle.
  • FIG. 1 It can be seen that the head part 4 and the foot part 5 are separate components.
  • This embodiment offers the possibility to manufacture the head part 4 or doctor bed 7 and the foot part 5 from different hard and / or different thermal materials. But this also offers the possibility that they are decoupled from each other in terms of their thermal expansion.
  • FIG. 2 is a variation of FIG. 1 to see.
  • the doctor unit 3 has in this variant instead of the foot part 5 FIG. 1 a continuous, one-piece retaining strip 23, which in addition to the holder 11 for the clamping hose has an additional holder 24 for the head part 4 and the doctor bed 7.
  • This retaining strip 23 also has a flexible section 22 or a bending point 22. Retaining strip 23 and the head part 4 are separate components, with the properties for the separate foot part 5 and the head part 4 in FIG. 1 have been described.
  • FIG. 3 is essentially the same as in FIG. 1 shown variant. Only here is still a sealing tube 32 is present, which is arranged above the contact pressure element 12 and the pressure hose 12.1 at the metering rod receiving groove 9 opposite back 20 of the head part 4 and the doctor bed 7.
  • the sealing tube 32 is arranged in the same external pressure device 15 as the pressure hose 12.1, but was inserted into a further holder 33.
  • the head part 4 or doctor bed 7 may consist of materials such as thermoplastics, polymers, rubber or material mixtures of the aforementioned types of materials.
  • the foot part 5 is made of materials such as thermoplastics, polymers, thermosets, e.g. GRP, CFRP, made of steel or light metal, such as aluminum.
  • the pressure hose 12.1 and 12.3, the clamping tube 6 and the sealing tube 32 can be formed as a round tube or profile hose, for example as a commercial nose tube and can be made of the materials such as rubber, rubber-reinforced fabric, fabric-containing PVC, silicone, natural rubber or fluoroelastomer.
  • the head part 4 or the doctor bed 7 and the foot part 5 is made of the same material. If desired, it is also possible to produce the head part 4 or the doctor bed 7 and the foot part 5 from differently hard and / or different thermal materials.
  • head and foot can each consist of several items that are integrally connected.
  • the multiple items may consist of different or different materials.
  • FIGS. 1 to 3 show, moreover, that the head part 4 or doctor bed 7 polygonal and the foot part 5 is formed like a blade.
  • the foot part 5 is in any case suitable to carry different prefabricated sizes and shapes of the head part 4 and the doctor bed 7, for example, depending on the size of the selected metering rod 8.
  • diameters between 5 and 100 mm, preferably 8 to 40 mm, as well as smooth or grooved doctor bars are suitable as doctor bar sizes.
  • a selectable spring travel in a flexurally elastic portion, or a pivoting or tilting area (when using a joint) and / or the load capacity and / or the service life of differently shaped foot parts 5, can these are already prefabricated. If required, these components can be provided quickly and easily.
  • the particular advantage of the invention is that a squeegee device of a plurality of different formable, prefabricatable and storable headers 4 or squeegee 7, 5 foot sections, retaining strips 23, Anpress- and clamping hoses, sealing tube 32, and squeegee 8 on the one hand modular buildable and good is accessible.
