Definitions

  • the invention relates to a support arrangement for an ink jet printing apparatus, as described in claim 1.
  • a method for producing such a carrier and such a carrier has become known from EP 2 000 316 AI of the same Applicant.
  • the walls of the carrier are formed by joining upper belt modules, lower belt modules, front wall modules and rear wall modules arranged one after the other in the longitudinal direction of the carrier.
  • transverse webs are arranged at intervals.
  • at least one guide track extending in its longitudinal direction is arranged on the carrier for a module which is movable along the guide track. In order to achieve high precision of the guideways, they are formed in such a way that areas of the modules are machined after the modules and transverse webs have been assembled.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a support assembly for guiding a printhead carriage of an inkjet printing device with a small size during printing a nearly constant distance between the mostly flat surface of the object to be printed and the front end of the printhead with the arranged there nozzles over the entire longitudinal extension of the support assembly allows.
  • the advantage resulting from the features of claim 1 lies in the fact that the possibility is created, the additional support element with respect to the support to be deformed relative to the carrier so that this in its mostly horizontal position even at a load through along the Guideway movable assembly, such as the printhead carriage, is rectilinear and thus aligned without deflection.
  • the support element is supported at its two ends against the carrier load-bearing, can be increased by means of the adjusting element, the mutually desired bias so far that even at the highest load the straightness over the entire longitudinal extension of the carrier can be maintained.
  • a further advantage is an embodiment according to claim 3, as this can easily be adapted to different conditions of use to guide the print head carriage can be created.
  • the possibility is created to respond automatically to different deflections quickly and thus be able to compensate for them in the shortest possible way.
  • possible vibrations occurring of the support assembly could be reduced or compensated by changing the mutual bias between the support and the support element.
  • a development according to claim 6 as this also a statically relatively stiff support is created, which has a high strength against deflection at low weight.
  • the support forces can be derived starting from the support element directly over the carrier towards the machine frame of the inkjet printing device and there is no additional bending stress of the carrier over the longitudinal extent.
  • Figure 1 is a support arrangement according to the invention cut in view and theoretically rectilinear orientation without deflection.
  • Fig. 2 shows the support assembly of Figure 1 in mutually braced position of support and support member, cut in view.
  • FIG. 3 the support assembly of Figure 1, cut in side view.
  • Fig. 4 shows a further possible embodiment of a support assembly, cut in side view.
  • FIGS. 1 to 3 show a support arrangement 1 for an inkjet printing device (not shown here), wherein the support arrangement 1 has at least one guide track 2 in its longitudinal direction or longitudinal extent.
  • a movable assembly not shown here, such as a printhead carriage, with the pressure devices, nozzles, etc. arranged thereon is moved.
  • the liquid pressure medium between the medium emitting nozzles and a mostly planar surface of the object to be printed a nearly constant distance is necessary, this could so far only be achieved by massive additional reinforcements of the support assembly 1 on the outside. This leads in many cases to space problems with regard to the not shown and movable adjustable adjustable assembly.
  • the support arrangement 1 comprises at least one support 3 having a longitudinal extent and at least one rod-shaped support element 4 likewise extending in the longitudinal direction thereof.
  • the support 3 is schematically illustrated in the region of its ends 5, 6 spaced apart in the longitudinal direction Bearing 7 on the base or support frame of the inkjet printing device supported or connected thereto.
  • the support or storage of the carrier 3 can be done for example by a floating bearing in the region of the end 5 and a fixed bearing in the region of the end 6. This is in the sense of statics or in engineering a mostly horizontally extending, in relation to its length narrow and slender beam, which derives the loads resting on it on walls or vertical supports.
  • the two bearings 7 thus support the beam or support 3 at two spaced locations, whereby a support is present on two supports.
  • a bending line 8 is still shown in dotted lines, which represents the deflection of the carrier 3 greatly exaggerated. This bending line 8 comes not only the weight of the carrier 3, but also by the previously movably guided assembly to conditions.
  • the carrier 3 is shown between its two bearings 7 in a theoretically ideal position or position, wherein between the two bearings 7, a rectilinear or planar reference plane 9 is clamped. Normally, this is aligned horizontally. Due to the deflection of the carrier 3 is formed on average between the two bearings 7, the largest deflection and thus deviation of the carrier 3 from the reference plane 9 from.
  • the support member 4 for forming the support assembly 1 also extends in the longitudinal direction of the carrier 3 and has in the longitudinal extension of the same likewise mutually distanced ends 10, 11. In this embodiment shown here, the two ends 10, 11 in approximately equidistant from each other as the ends 5, 6 of the carrier 3. Thus, the carrier 3 and the support member 4 at least approximately the same longitudinal extent.
  • the support element 4 In the region of its ends 10, 11, the support element 4 is supported relative to the carrier 3 against the direction of action of gravity at this.
  • the gravitational forces acting on the different masses can also be called gravity.
  • This support takes place here again by bearings 12, which can be found here, for example, with two movable bearings Aus GmbH. But it would also be possible to provide a floating bearing and a fixed bearing again.
  • the carrier 3 and the support member 4 is additionally clamped over its longitudinal extent by means of at least one control element 13 against each other.
  • the one or more adjusting element 13 may also be referred to as adjusting means.
  • the weight produced by the movable subassembly as well as the intrinsic mass or the dead weight of the carrier 3 is shown in simplified form approximately in the middle between the two bearings 7 of the carrier 3.
  • the deflection of the carrier 3 caused by the total weight F is simplified is minimized or completely removed by the adjusting element or elements 13.
  • the supporting element 4 is at least viewed in the direction of gravity from the wall part of FIG
  • the positioning element or elements 13 can be selected from the group of components such as adjusting screws, compression springs, tension springs, cylinder-piston arrangements, etc.
  • a first adjusting element 13 approximately in the middle between the two bearings 7 on the side above the support member 4 and the wall part of the carrier. 3 arranged. Further adjusting elements 13 are arranged distanced towards in the direction of the two ends 5, 6 and formed for example as screws.
  • the two adjusting elements 13 configured as screws act here from the underside of the carrier 3 in the direction of the support element 4.
  • a control element 13 corresponding threaded arrangement is provided here in the lower wall portion of the support, wherein in the support member 4, a control element 13 corresponding threaded arrangement is provided.
  • additional thread extensions in the region of the support member 4 has been omitted for the sake of clarity, but can be used or provided especially in rather thin-walled hollow sections.
  • nuts or threaded blocks can be used.
  • the entire support 3 can be raised by the relative deformation of the support element 4 so far that the support 3 is aligned at least planar to the reference plane 9.
  • This planar alignment with respect to the reference plane 9 should then be adjusted or pre-adjusted, even if the largest weight is introduced or applied to the support assembly 1 by the assembly movable on the support assembly 1. It can also happen that the carrier 3 against removal of the moving assembly, such as the printhead pour, introduced weight against the direction of action of gravity - ie upwards - is deformed before. Only with a corresponding load by the weight of the movable assembly is the planar or rectilinear orientation of the carrier 3 with respect to the reference plane 9 a. Thus, a constant distance is maintained even during the reciprocation of the printhead carriage between the ends of the nozzle openings and the surface to be printed. The caused by the mutual tension deformation of the support member 4 should still be in the elastic region of the material used.
  • actuator 13 may for example be designed as a resilient pressure element and in cooperation with the screws designed as actuating elements 13 which cause mutual tension between the carrier 3 and the support member 4.
  • the spring-acting control element 13 is provided in the middle of the longitudinal extent between the two bearings 7.
  • the two are as Screws formed adjusting elements 13 also designed to build a pressure effect against each other bracing the carrier 3 with the support member 4. Due to the spatial distancing of the support member 4 with respect to the wall portion of the support 3, this can be seen deformed without problems in the direction of gravity, that the previously described straightness or flatness of the support 3 with respect to the reference plane 9 can be adjusted.
  • Fig. 3 is a possible cross section of the support assembly 1 is shown simplified.
  • the carrier 3 can be composed, for example, of various types of modules, as has already been described in the own EP 2 000 316 AI. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, attention is drawn to the detailed disclosure of the module-like carrier 3 on the disclosure made there, or taken by reference and incorporated this disclosure content in the present application.
  • the carrier 3 may be formed from Obergurtmodulen, Untergurtmodulen, front and rear wall modules.
  • the here designed as a loose bearing bearing 12 for supporting the support member 4 on the support 3 is realized here for example by a rib or web.
  • the rib 12 formed as a web or bearing 12 may have a recess 14.
  • the mutual distortion between the carrier 3 and the support member 4 is to be selected accordingly.
  • the support 3 and the support member 4 seen at least in the direction of action of gravity, by the one or more adjusting elements 13 braced against each other.

Additionally or independently of this, however, it would also be possible to brace the carrier 3 against one another relative to the support element 4, even in a direction oriented at an angle with respect to the direction of action of the gravitational force.
  • the carrier 3 is designed, for example, as a prismatic hollow body.
