Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for making a coil of pile weatherstrip or like crushable elongate material, and more especially, a coil of pile weatherstrip with a central barrier fin such as our FIN-SEAL strip.
- the invention is particularly suitable for making a coil of pile weatherstrip which has a central barrier fin which projects beyond the sealing surface of the pile. We market such weatherstrip as HI-FIN weatherstrip.
- the damage to the weatherstrip is even worse when a barrier fin is provided, especially if it upstands from the pile, because the barrier fin will be crushed, and more often than not, will be laid over the pile, sometimes one way and sometimes the other, so that when the weatherstrip is removed from the reel for installation in a window or door, the fin will be laid over the pile in random fashion to the left and right, and may not upstand from the pile at all.
- the fin instead of enhancing the sealing and other performance properties of the weatherstrip, will have an adverse effect.
- the present invention seeks to overcome the problems associated with the traditional coiling of weatherstrip on reels.
- apparatus for making a coil of pile weatherstrip or like crushable elongate material comprising a reel on which the weatherstrip is to be wound, said reel having a central circumferentially discontinuous core or hub and two spaced side walls extending radially from the core, and separable from each other, and both of which have a discontinuous circumferential periphery to allow weatherstrip wound upon the reel to be wrapped round with at least one band of tape or the like to prevent unreeling when it is removed from the reel after separation of said side walls.
- the apparatus also includes means for winding the weatherstrip on the reel under minimum tension so that the coil is under little or no compression.
- Each side wall could comprise a spider, generally in the form of a plurality of arms extending radially from a central region, and the central core or hub could be provided by a plurality of bars extending between opposed arms of the two spiders, each of the bars being at the same spacing from the centre of the central region.
- the reel comprises two generally circular side plates, each with a plurality of recesses opening from their periphery towards a central region, and between the recesses, projections which are preferably of equal length located at a greater distance from the centre of each side plate than the bottom of each recess, which form the discontinuous core or hub when the two side plates are assembled concentrically together in parallel spaced relationship.
- each side plate has four recesses therein at 90° intervals, and each projection is spaced circumferentially about 30° from a recess, so that the plates can be assembled with their recesses directly opposite each other, with two projections between each pair of recesses, spaced about 30° apart, one connected to one plate and the other to the other plate.
- the projections may be provided by L-shaped members, one of the limbs of each of which is secured to its respective plate, and the other limb of which forms the projection, and the free end face of which abuts the opposite plate.
- quick release means is provided to allow separation of the side walls.
- the quick release means may comprise nuts and bolts or pivoting latches.
- means is provided on at least one of the plates to assist in correctly aligning it with the other plate.
- each projection is lined, at least on its radial outermost face, with soft material, e.g. pile. ,
- the means for winding the weatherstrip on the reel may comprise a feeder arm having a head with a T-shaped slot therein, which preferably lays the weatherstrip in position with the pile facing inwards, and which moves radially outwards for each layer so as not to tension the weatherstrip and lay it loosely on the reel.
- the arm can move from side to side axially of the reel to lay the weatherstrip on the reel.
- This arm may rotate around the reel, but it is preferred that the reel is rotated about a pivot axis located at the centre of its side walls so that the arm can move just from side to side and radially in and out.
- a method of making a coil of pile weatherstrip or like crushable material comprising winding the weatherstrip under minimum compression onto a reel which has a central core with a discontinuous circumference and two spaced separable side walls extending radially from the core, and which have discontinuous peripheries, wrapping the resultant coil of weatherstrip with at least one band of material to prevent unwinding of the coil, separating the side walls of the reel, and removing the banded coil of weatherstrip or like material from the reel.
- the method includes the step of feeding the weatherstrip to the reel with an arm which is movable towards and away from a central rotational axis of the reel so that each layer of weatherstrip on the reel is laid gently onto the reel or a preceding layer under minimum compression.
- the arm is also moved to and fro to lay the weatherstrip on the reel.
- the reel is rotated relative to the arm and the weatherstrip is wound on the reel with its pile facing inwards.
- a barrier fin is associated with the pile, because when the weatherstrip is coiled, the tip of the fin will lie on a circle of smaller diameter than the base of the fin, thus causing the free edge or tip to corrugate slightly.
- This then supports the next outer layer of pile weatherstrip and acts as a cushion for it.
- the resultant coil of weatherstrip has a resiliently deformable support built into it, which means that the whole coil is less likely to be damaged during transit, and is itself self-supporting and resiliently deformable.
- the side wall may be separated by removing nuts from one end of a plurality of bolts extending between the side walls and holding the side walls together, or by releasing pivoting latches on the ends of the bars or other quick release means.
- a reel 1 is shown, made up of two spaced side walls 3,5, each in the form of a circular plate, having a plurality of recesses 4 therein, extending from the periphery of the plate towards the centre. As shown, four recesses 4 are provided in each plate, at 90° spacings.
- a projection 7, provided by one arm of an L-shaped bracket 6, is provided, the other arm of each bracket 6 being secured to the side wall plate 3 or 5 in known manner, spaced approximately 30° from its respective recess 4.
- the weatherstrip for the coil 9 is dispensed from a feeder arm 20 which is shown in more detail in Figures 3 and 4 to which reference is now also made.
- the feeder arm 20 comprises a dispensing head 10 having a holder 21 with a T-shaped slot therein, which is supported on an arm 11.
- the holder 21 is supported on bolts 22 passing through the top of the head 10.
- the position of the holder 21 in the head 10 can be varied by screwing up or unscrewing nuts 23 to accommodate weatherstrips of different heights.
- the holder 21 is held in position by coil springs 24 encircling the bolts 22 and located between the holder 21 and the top of the head 10. If desired, the holder 21 may be changed to accommodate weather or other strips of different widths by unscrewing completely the nuts 23 and inserting a new holder.
- the head 10 is movable towards and away from a rotational axis 13 of the reel, and is also movable to and from across the width of the reel between the side walls, so as to lay weatherstrip in place, as shown.
- the weatherstrip is coiled under minimum compression so as not to crush the weatherstrip. It is preferred that the weatherstrip is guided as shown in Figure 3 by the T-shaped slot in the holder 21 in the head 10 with its pile facing inwards, especially if the pile incorporates a barrier fin.
- this corrugated fin supports the next layer of weatherstrip, and provides a cushion effect, thus improving the durability of the coil and giving it a resilience which improves its recovery characteristics during transport.
- the arm 11 could be moved around the reel, but it is easier for the reel to be rotated, as shown, in the direction of the arrow B.
- one or more bands l5 (four, one for each recess, are preferred) of tape, wire, string or the like are wrapped around the coil 9 to hold it in place, and the weatherstrip can then be severed from that on the supply arm 11.
- the bands 15 are formed of tape on which a trade mark or brand name can be printed.
- the side walls 3 and 5 are separated from each other. This can be achieved by first releasing or removing quick release fittings or nuts and bolts (not shown) or preferably a single screw spindle 17. The banded coil can then be removed from the reel.
- the walls 3,5 are shown as being spaced apart by the eight projections. A different number could be provided.
- the projections 7 are preferably lined, at least on their surfaces which support the inner layer of weatherstrip, with a soft material, e.g. pile material or foam, to prevent crushing of the weatherstrip.
- the present invention also extends to a coil of pile weatherstrip wound by the method and apparatus described above.
- the weatherstrip may be fed to the head 10 by a capstan, or by means of a pair of rollers, the speed of which is controlled to ensure there is little or no tension in the coil...
- the feed mechanisms are the subject of a further patent application in our name.
