Definitions

  • the invention relates to a color chamber for an inking unit of a rotary printing press according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention further relates to a method for producing a color chamber for an inking unit of a rotary printing press according to the preamble of claim 9.
  • At least two doctor blades are provided which can be fixed to the doctor chamber body.
  • a sealing body is arranged at each of the end sides of the doctoring chamber body. Doctor blades and sealing surfaces of the sealing bodies can be placed on the inking roller, so that the ink sealing roller, the doctor blade, the doctor chamber body and the Sealing body seal the groove-like recess to the outside, so that an interior is created, which is completed.
  • the doctoring chamber body is provided with a paint feed, which is often arranged in the middle. Furthermore, color runs are generally also provided in order to be able to maintain a color cycle. These color sequences, on the printing ink, which is inevitably enriched in the printing operation with air, can be discharged, are arranged in the end regions of the interior or the groove-like recess.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to reduce the cleaning or the replacement cost.
  • this object is solved by the features of the characterizing part of claim 1. Accordingly, it is provided that at the end pieces and intermediate walls are arranged, which are the trough-like Recess in a main chamber and at least one secondary chamber separates. In each secondary chamber can be provided a color sequence. The operation of these partitions per se has already been described in the aforementioned patents.
  • sealing bodies are also arranged on or in the end pieces.
  • end pieces can be prepared, which include unconsumed seal body.
  • the end pieces are of angular design and the color transfer roller side facing away from the Rakelschianus is connected to the doctor blade chamber body.
  • This connection can be made with screws, preferably thumbscrews. Since the inking works well in the radial direction of the ink transfer rollers well, but in the axial direction of the ink transfer rollers because of the rack walls, storage facilities or Propellers are relatively poorly accessible, the arrangement of the attachment to the underside of the Rakelhunt utilizats, which shows in the radial direction of the ink transfer roller, of particular advantage. For the removal of the end pieces of the chambered doctor blade body, a lateral space of a few centimeters is sufficient.
  • the end pieces are essentially made of plastic. In this way can be produced in a simple and very cost-effective manner moldings that form the tails. Depending on the softness of the material used, the end pieces then already have certain sealing properties, so that the points of contact, edges and surfaces with the doctor chamber body and with other elements need not additionally be provided with seals. This contributes to a further cost reduction.
  • end pieces are produced by an injection molding process.
  • very many end pieces in the form of molded parts can be produced economically, so that, for example, an end piece which is no longer sufficiently cleanable can be disposed of without incurring high costs for replacement or costly cleaning.
  • the provided for discharging the ink hoses or lines are detachably connected with a coupling system to the end pieces and when the connector of this coupling system is arranged on the tail.
  • the end piece and plug of the aforementioned coupling system in one piece. This is particularly advantageous when the tail is made as an injection molded part.
  • At least one color flow is introduced into each end piece and the end pieces are detachably fastened to the end regions of the doctor chamber body.
  • end pieces are made of plastic, wherein a plastic injection molding is preferred.
  • Fig. 1 shows a side view of a paint chamber doctor blade 1 according to the invention, in which an end piece 2 is fixed to the chamber doctor blade body 3.
  • the tail can be screwed by means not shown screws which run in the axial direction of the chambered doctor blade body 3, to this.
  • FIG. 2 shows the same view as the FIG. 1 , However, the tail has now been removed from the chambered doctor blade body 3.
  • the end piece 2 comprises an outlet opening 4, which via a cavity 23 (see Fig. 3 ) is connected to the trench-like recess 5, so that printing ink, which passes into this recess 5 can be removed via the outlet opening 4.
  • the outlet opening 4 is concentrically surrounded by a dashed circle, which is intended to indicate that the outlet opening is provided with an internal thread. This can be screwed into the outlet opening a connector, which can be connected to a hose or pipe for the discharge of ink.
  • the hose can be coupled to the connector, for example via a coupling.
  • the recess 5 is connected to the interior 6 of the tail.
  • This secondary space 6 is essentially limited by at least one wall 7, which, when the end piece 2 is screwed to the chambered doctor blade body 3, the auxiliary space 6 of the end piece 2 of the trough-like main space 8 of the chambered doctor blade body 3 (see FIG. 3 ) delimits.
  • this wall 7 is shown in dashed lines. The effect of such walls is in the aforementioned patent DE 195 16 223 C2 the Applicant described in detail why more detailed explanations will be omitted here at this point.
  • the wall 7 may be suitably removably attached to the end piece 2.
  • this is Screw connections conceivable.
  • the sealing body 9 is held in the circumferential direction of the ink transfer rollers, not shown, between two webs 10 of the end piece 2. In order to prevent an axial displacement of the seal body 9, this is the end face of the tail 2 held by a holding plate 11 which may be bolted to the end piece 2. However, preference is given to a pivotable retaining plate 11, whose execution and function in the patent EP 0 896 877 B1 the applicant is under protection. While the holding plate 11 according to the cited patent is pivotally mounted on the chambered doctor blade body 3, this holding plate 11 according to the present invention is also arranged on the end piece 2 which can be removed from the chambered doctoring body 3.
  • a counter-holding wall 12 is provided, to which the sealing body can be applied.
  • This counter-holding wall 12 like the wall 7, can be removably arranged on the end piece 2.
  • the counter-holding wall 12 is formed integrally with the end piece 12.
  • the doctor blades are placed on the support surfaces 13 of the chambered doctor blade body 3 and fixed there in a suitable manner.
  • the connecting seam 18 between end piece 2 and chamber doctor blade body 3 crosses this bearing surface (as in the Figures 1 and 2 is shown) and thus leads to leaks, it is according to the FIGS. 3 and 4 provided to form the bearing surfaces 13 extended relative to the chambered doctor blade body by means of extension sections 14, so that they extend to the sealing body 9.
  • the webs 10 may have corresponding recesses 15. Between recess 15 and extension portion 14 of the support surface 13 sealing means can be provided.
  • the doctor blades are fixed by means not described in more detail on the support surfaces 13.
  • These fastening means comprise clamping rails, with which the doctor blades are pressed onto the support surfaces 13 and waves, which are inserted into the longitudinal recesses 16.
  • the clamping rails may also include longitudinal webs which can grip the recesses 16. Regardless of how the fastening means are designed, it is provided that the depressions 16 continue as depressions 17 in the end piece. In general, it is advantageous if the cross-sectional contour of chamber doctor blade body 3 and end piece 2 is substantially congruent.
  • FIG. 6 shown view of said embodiment in the region of the trench-like recess 5 is provided with a recess 24 which may be rectangular in shape.
  • a seal 20 may be provided, which may be inserted into a groove around the trench-like depression 5 around the end piece 2 and the chambered doctor blade body 3 sufficiently seals against the end piece 2.
  • This seal 20 is in the FIG. 6 shown in dashed lines and can continue below the seal body 9. In the FIG. 5 the seal 20 is shown as a dashed line.
  • the end piece 2 may be provided with an extension piece 21 in a Farbschrakel 1 according to the invention, so that the end piece 2 is formed in the side view as an angle.
  • This expression of the tail is not on the embodiment in the FIGS. 5 and 6 limited.
  • This end piece makes it possible to attach the end piece to the underside of the chambered doctor blade body 3 with suitable fastening means, for example one or more of the screw 22 shown.
  • This type of attachment of the tail is advantageous in many printing machines, since in the longitudinal direction of the ink chamber doctor blade is often not sufficient mounting space.
  • FIG. 7 shows the embodiment according to FIG. 6 Clearly recognizable now is the appearance of the end of the ink chamber blade 1. Above all, now the recess 24 can be seen, which is introduced so that when deferred end piece 2, the trench-like depression 5 is exposed. As has already been explained with reference to the exemplary embodiments of the invention already described above, the trench-like depression 5 is in communication with the outlet opening 4, so that ink can flow out through the trench-like depression 5, the connection and the outlet opening.
  • Farbschzigrakel 1 is pushed (see also FIG. 5 ).
  • through holes 26 are arranged through which screws 22 can reach through to secure the end piece 2 to the paint chamber doctor blade.
  • On the right side of the projection 21 is an elevation 25, in which the recess 5 and also the groove, in which the seal 20 is inserted, are introduced.
  • the seal 20 is shown as a line which is partly solid and partly interrupted.
  • the part shown as a broken line is covered by the seal 9.
  • the part shown as a solid line is covered with deferred end piece 2 by the edges of the trough-like main chamber of the chambered doctor blade body and therefore in the illustration of FIG. 7 not covered and thus visible.
  • FIG. 1 Each of the figures shows one end of a paint chamber doctor blade 1. It is understood that both ends of a ink chamber doctor blade 1 can be provided with the end pieces 2 described.
