Definitions
- the subject of the present invention is an ultraviolet dryer with protection of the radiating face of the reflector and cooling of the apparatus and of the product to be treated, while the product is running as well as when the latter is stopped, in particular for a labeling machine with several printing groups.
- Known dryers are provided with a reflector cooled by a circulation of water. This water circulation is carried out in the very thickness of the aluminum sheet serving as a reflector.
- the reflector being devoid of air circulation in the environment of the emitter, there is no aeraulic protection against the emanations of degassing products at the time of drying (water, residual solvent, reactive components, etc ...) and which by natural convection rise inside the reflector itself to be deposited on the one hand on the reflection face of the reflector and on the other hand on the quartz face of the emitter, altering the reflectance properties of the reflector and those transparency of the issuer, hence the loss of yield.
- the mechanical sealing system is only a flat aluminum sheet which, when it is not used in its function of isolating the radiation by closing it when stopped, is "folded" at inside the reflector.
- this sheet is made of mat aluminum which is essentially non-reflective and whose optical geometry is zero.
- the object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks.
- an ultraviolet dryer is proposed with protection of the radiating face of the reflector and cooling of the apparatus and of the product to be treated, while the product is running as well as when the latter is stopped, in particular for labeling machines.
- the reflector consists of two reflector half-shells or half-reflector, pivoting around a hollow axis, said hollow axis allowing the passage of air inside even from the reflector, the air acting both as a protector and as a cooling agent.
- this air flow can be projected over the entire back of the reflection face, allowing the maximum heat to be evacuated from the reflector, thus keeping it at temperatures below 100 C from an initial ambient temperature of around 25 ° C.
- This clean filtered cooling air arrives with a certain pressure inside the reflector itself, causing an aeraulic screen such as an air cushion, thus preventing pollution of the surface of the reflector and that of the emitter.
- an aeraulic screen such as an air cushion
- the transmitter remains perfectly stable.
- the same ventilation regime is therefore maintained, thereby cooling the reflectors much more while maintaining the temperature of the product close to ambient temperature.
- the ambient air in the workshop is sucked in by the fan (1) shown in dotted lines in a first cowling (2).
- the cowling (2) is secured by screws on the cowling (3).
- the covers (2) and (3) are cut and opened according to the dimensions of width and height of the cassette which is itself completely open at this location on the outer wall. It can be seen that the air passes laterally between the two walls of the rectangular profile of the cassette and in the same way over the upper part between the cover sheet (3) and the upper wall (5) of the cassette. All of these air flows return towards the front and pass through each hollow axis (6,6 ') to blow inside the reflector secured to its framework and carried by the latter.
- this air scans the surface of the product to exit through the extraction hole (7) located in the vertical frame of the machine on which the entire device is fixed with screws by l 'intermediate of the cover (3).
- the two reflectors are opened and closed by means of a toothed pinion axis (9.9 ′) at each reflector and by a rack fixed to two electromagnets (10) with reverse traction or else a double-acting pneumatic cylinder.
- This rack is a very thick plate, toothed at the two vertical ends and receiving in the case of the electric motor, on either side of the central part, each electromagnet (10), and in the case of the pneumatic motor, in the central axis, receiving a pneumatic cylinder.
- FIG. 2 shows the ultra-violet emitter (11) and the two shells (12, 12 ′) with the enclosure (13) in hollow profile constituting the housing of the dryer.
- the reference (13) corresponds to the cover intended to receive the ultraviolet dryers.
- the shells each support by hooking a parabolic reflector (14, 14 '), the parabolic shape not being limiting.
- each “half-reflective shell” assembly having pivoted in the standby position, the product is stopped, and the assembly has pivoted to prevent the radiation of the ultraviolet transmitter on the product.
- the product to be treated can be strips (paper or plastic or metallic products) on which are deposited inks or varnishes to dry or polymerize or crosslink.
- Each half-shell pivots around a hollow axis (6,6 ') through which the cooling ventilation (1) passes under air pressure.
- the through holes (8) at the upper and lower ends of the half-reflector force the cooling air to lick the back of the reflector.
- This air passes for a part in front of the emitter and the reflecting part of the reflector, causing a protective air cushion against pollution of the gaseous effluents generated by the product on drying.
- the two half-shells pivot on themselves and the energy of the emitter is simultaneously reduced to a third of its nominal value.
- Residual radiation dissipates for part on the surface of the upper wall (5) of the cassette which re-releases its heat energy by the constant air flow which sweeps it, and for the other part by walls which are the two half-reflectors, the residual radiant energy being completely transformed into convective energy and completely sucked in through the hole (7) located in the vertical frame of the machine.
- the end (20) of the transmitter is ceramic. This is housed in a nickel tip tube (21) with a clearance of 0.5 mm. This nickel tube is held by a mechanical clamp (22).
- the supply is made by a wire (23) covered with usual Teflon with connection by electrical terminal (24).
- the two half "reflector-shell" can close on themselves, the shock not being transmitted to the end of the transmitter which is a fragile part in operation since brought to its temperature of about 200 ° C. .
