Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for the production of bristle bundles made of plastic for brushes, brooms, brushes or the like.
- endless monofilaments and combining them in a number that corresponds wholly or in part to the number of bristles in the bundle and the resulting bundle of strands is wound onto a spool from which the bundle of strands is withdrawn cyclically or continuously during processing and cut to the bristle length, and before or after each bristle bundle is attached to the brush, broom or brush body.
- plastic bristles offer the advantage that they can be produced from endless monofilaments by extrusion or spinning. The monofilaments are then combined into a strand, which is wrapped in paper or film packaging and cut to the desired bristle length.
- the invention has for its object to further develop the method described above in such a way that the influence of the lack of creep resistance of the plastic is reduced and that even after prolonged storage perfect bristles can be obtained.
- This object is achieved in that the bundle strand formed when the monofilaments are brought together is twisted and wound up in the cheese package.
- the advantage is initially achieved that the individual monofilament is supported many times within the strand, so that all monofilaments of a strand on the spool are curved with the same radius. Furthermore, differences in length are compensated for and individual monofilaments cannot come loose from the assembly during winding and storage of the bobbin and can be drawn onto the bobbin more strongly.
- the twisted bundle strand is not wound on a spool core in the circumferential direction, but with an adjustable pitch, with the result that the radius of curvature of the bundle strand or the monofilament can be increased considerably compared to a parallel winding with the same size of the spool.
- the method according to the invention has a further considerable advantage. While previously it was only possible to use flange coils in the production of endless bristles, simple flangeless coil sleeves or coil cores can now be used, since a cross wrap has the advantage that the individual winding layers cannot slip off the coil.
- the coil core which can be designed in its simplest form as a cardboard tube, has a significantly lower weight than a flange coil, so that the ratio of tare weight and net weight is considerably more favorable.
- the material and transport costs can be reduced considerably. Practical studies have shown that, for example, the cost of the coil compared to conventional flange coils is only about a third, and at the same time it can accommodate up to eight times the bristle weight. At the same time, compared to the flange coils, there is a considerably smaller space requirement, especially when storing and transporting the empty coils, especially if the coil sleeves are conical.
- the cross-wound method also permits winding without a core.
- the spools are completely saved and the cheaper storage and transportation costs are even greater.
- the procedure is preferably such that the twisted bundle strand or strands are initially in a parallel position, e.g. B. wound on one or more large production spools, then deducted from this parallel winding and then unwound in the cheese winding process.
- a parallel position e.g. B. wound on one or more large production spools
- this allows the manufacture of the bundle strand and the cross-winding to be separated from one another by using the parallel winding as a buffer. This also makes it possible to wind up several bundle strands from different production spools on a spool core in the cross winding process if necessary.
- the invention is based on a known device which consists of one or more extrusion lines for producing endless monofilaments, a device for merging the monofilaments into a bundle strand and a winding bobbin for winding up the bundle strand.
- the above-mentioned device is characterized by a device for twisting the bundle strand and a cross-winding machine with delivery mechanism receiving the twisted bundle strand and a flange-less, large-diameter bobbin tube arranged thereon and receiving the cross-winding.
- it is also possible to produce a self-supporting cross wrap without a coil sleeve.
- twisting device such as twisting device, cross winder with delivery mechanism, flangeless, cylindrical or conical bobbin tubes and core-free winding are known in textile technology, for which reason a detailed description can be omitted here.
- a winding stand is arranged behind the twisting device, which initially serves to form a parallel winding, and that the bobbin thus produced with parallel winding can be attached to the supply unit of the cross-winder.
- FIG. 1a several extruders 1 can be seen, which produce a variety of monofilament endless bristles 2.
- the monofilaments are brought together at 3 to form a strand 5 and as a parallel strand 5 to a twisting device 11.
- the then twisted bundle strand 12 is drawn off from this twisting device by means of a coil block 13 and a flange coil 14 and wound up into a parallel winding 15 (FIG. 1a).
- the twisted bundle strand 12 is drawn off from the parallel winding 15 of the flange spool 14, which is optionally converted into a vertical position, via a delivery mechanism 4 from a cheese winder 6 (FIG. 1b).
- This also has a cylindrical bobbin 7 of large diameter, on which a self-supporting cylindrical cross wrap 8 is produced from the bundle strand 12.
- a conical bobbin tube 16 can also be arranged on the cheese winder 6, so that a conical bobbin 17 is formed (FIG. 1c).
- the device shown in FIG. 2 is located in front of the brush, broom or brush machine. It either has, as shown in the upper left part, several horizontally mounted axes for receiving the bobbin tube 7 or the cheese 8 in a horizontal position, or, as shown in the lower left part of FIG. 3, several vertical axes for receiving the bobbin tubes 7 or the cross wrap in a vertical position.
- a take-off device 9 is arranged behind the receptacles for the bobbin tubes 7 and pulls off the bundle strands from the bobbin tubes 7, the withdrawal taking place approximately tangentially when the bobbin tubes 7 are stored horizontally, but axially parallel to the cross-winding 8 when stored vertically.
- a cutting device 10 is arranged, which cuts the bundle strand intermittently to the desired bristle length, so that the bristle bundles on the machine behind, but otherwise known, in the body of the implement, for. B. a brush, a brush, a broom or the like. can be used.
