Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for applying fluid to a relative to the device movable substrate, in particular for applying adhesive to films, with a connectable to a fluid source, formed in a body fluid supply channel, with at least one order valve for selectively interrupting or releasing the Fluid stream and communicating with the Fluidzu Glasskanal slot nozzle assembly having an elongated slot with an outlet opening, wherein the length of the slot is variable by means of a movable in the slot and laterally sealing closure body.
  • Such devices are often referred to as applicator heads and are used in various industrial fields to apply adhesives or other liquids on films, packaging material or other substrates surface.
  • the applicator head is regularly mounted to a frame and the substrate is passed by a conveyor on the applicator head.
  • the liquid exits from the elongate outlet opening of the slot of the slot nozzle arrangement and reaches the surface of the substrate guided past the outlet opening.
  • a disadvantage of the construction with the threaded spindles is that they protrude in the rotated state relatively far from the slot nozzle device and optionally protrude disturbing into the room and a relatively large total length of the entire applicator is the result.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a job device that allows a structurally simple way a variation of the application width and an adaptation to different substrates, and avoids a large length.
  • the invention solves this problem in a device of the type mentioned in that the closure body is movable by means of a flexible element and coupled thereto.
  • the invention allows a structurally simple manner with a small overall length of the device, a variation of the length of the slot of the slot nozzle arrangement and thus a variation of the application width. Due to the use according to the invention of a flexible element coupled to the closure body, this can be carried out in a space-saving manner due to the flexibility. Long, projecting from the applicator threaded spindles can be avoided according to the invention.
  • the flexible element is directly or indirectly coupled to the closure body and drivable so that the closure body can be moved continuously in the slot in order to adjust the length of the slot to the particular application can.
  • a closure element which can be moved by means of the flexible element can be provided on one side of the slot or can also be provided with two closure elements which can be driven by means of two flexible elements in order to be able to adjust the slot length on both sides.
  • the flexible element is a chain, a toothed belt or a rope, so that the movement of the closure body can be achieved with structurally simple and available means.
  • a push / pull chain is particularly preferred, so that a closure body can be easily pressed inward to reduce the slot length and can be pulled outward to increase the slot length. So that a defined movement and defined position of the closure body is achieved within the slot, the push / pull chain has a plurality of n Schubgliedem adjacent in the longitudinal direction of the chain and attached to individual chain links.
  • the flexible element is connected at one end to the closure body and is in engagement with a toothed wheel which is manually or motor-driven for moving the closure body.
  • a gear driving the motor or a self-locking gear can be used.
  • the flexible element is guided in a guide channel, so that the movement path of the flexible element is defined and the required tensile and / or compressive forces can be transmitted safely.
  • the guide channel has a first, substantially laterally adjacent to the slot portion.
  • the guide channel has a deflection section and a storage section arranged adjacent to the slot nozzle arrangement for receiving the flexible element.
  • the storage section is expediently arranged substantially straight, parallel and below relative to the slot nozzle arrangement.
  • the guide channel is substantially formed within a separate housing, which is mountable to the slot nozzle assembly, so that a simple assembly is possible and optionally a simple exchange of trained on the housing wear surfaces on which the flexible element slides , is possible.
  • a further preferred embodiment provides that a stop element for limiting the movability of the flexible element is formed on a section, preferably an end section of the flexible element. An undesirable too far advancing or pulling out of the flexible element can thus be prevented in a simple manner.
  • a further alternative embodiment is characterized in that the position of the flexible element is detectable by means of at least one sensor, preferably a mechanical switch, and that one or more application valves for interrupting or releasing the fluid flow is switched on or off with the aid of the signal provided by the sensor /become.
  • the applicators have a large length and a plurality of full length applicator valves that are active and passive, respectively, depending on the particular setting of the length.
  • sensors which scan the position of the flexible element.
  • a worm gear is connected. Due to the self-locking of the transmission remains after adjustment of the closure body in the respective position, since the friction within the transmission is sufficient to a shift in the usually acting on the closure body fluid forces to prevent. A shift is possible only via the operation by means of a handwheel or a motor, such as an electric motor.
