Definitions

  • the present invention is part of the technical sector relating to machinery for the ceramic industry, with particular reference to those intended for the tile decoration lines.
  • a certain number of decoration cabinets are located in succession, shaped like tunnels, in which the ceramic tiles, advancing on a conveyor, enter, pass through a battery of nozzles that deliver ceramic glaze and then they go out.
  • the number of decoration cabinets can vary according to the type of decoration, or how many different colors of enamel must be applied; in certain lines there may be six or more cabins.
  • the decoration line is stopped for maintenance and washing; normally, the downtime of the line is contained within an hour, to minimize the loss of production.
  • ITMO20010034 discloses a decoration cabinet with a washing device.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide each decoration cabinet with its own washing device, capable of cleaning the internal walls of the cabinet as well as the operating elements housed therein with water pressure jets, detergents, or water mixed with cleaning substances.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide that the washing device operates automatically according to a predefined work cycle, implemented in coincidence with the said programmed stop of the decoration line.
  • a further object of the invention is to program the automatic washing cycle in such a way as to minimize the steps necessary to clean the entire cabin.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide for the device a closed circuit feeding device, equipped with means capable of filtering and purifying the liquid resulting from the washing, in order to be able to clean and reuse it.
  • the washing device 1 is associated with a decoration cabinet 2 of ceramic tiles (not shown), arranged along a decoration line L, partially visible in Fig. 4 , and in which a conveyor T is included, for example with belts, for the advancement of said ceramic tiles.
  • the same decoration line L can provide a plurality of said decoration cabinets 2, arranged in succession at predetermined distances from each other, all advantageously equipped with a corresponding washing device 1.
  • Each decoration cabinet 2 in a manner known per se, is provided with:
  • the washing device 1 comprises at least one orientable washing head 3, provided with at least one spray nozzle 30 and associated with the lower end of a mobile arm 4, with the latter supported in the upper part of the box-like structure protection 20 and extended downwards.
  • two movable arms 4 are provided, each with a relative swiveling washing head 3.
  • the latter is provided with 3 or 4 spray nozzles 30, to optimize the covered area during operations of washing.
  • the two movable arms 4 are arranged mutually symmetrical at the opposite ends of the box-like protective structure 20, placing themselves above the said inlet 21 and outlet 22 openings respectively made in the latter.
  • the box-like protective structure 20, in the illustrated non-limiting example, conforms two turrets 25, rising from its top, each of which is provided to house the upper portion of the corresponding mobile arm 4.
  • the movable arms 4 are of the oscillating type and lie on a vertical plane coinciding with the vertical longitudinal centerline of the box-like protective structure 20.
  • Each of the aforementioned movable arms 4 is associated with first actuator elements 5, for their movement on the vertical plane, according to a predefined program and with a predetermined speed, for moving the washing head 3 inside the box-like protective structure 20.
  • the first actuator organs 5 are advantageously housed in the turret 25 of the corresponding mobile arm 4, so as to be in areas protected from splashes and, at the same time, easily inspected from outside the box-like protective structure 20.
  • Each washing head 3 has associated second actuator organs 6, comprising a nozzle-holder body, for its movement along at least one axis of rotation, in a suitable phase relationship with the movement of the relative mobile arm 4.
  • the nozzle-holder body it is subject to two combined movements according to two different degrees of freedom, to ensure maximum coverage of the washing area, and therefore operate at 360 ° for each movement.
  • the aforesaid first and second actuator organs 5, 6 are for example of the pneumatic type.
  • the movable arms 4 are operable between a rest position, shown in Figure 5 and, partially in dashed lines, in Figure 3 , in which they do not interfere with the operation of the decoration cabinet 2, and a plurality of operating positions, given from all the positions that can be assumed by the washing head 3, and allowed by the aforesaid first 5 and second 6 actuator organs.
  • each of said movable arms 4 is constituted by a robotic arm with controlled axes, which incorporates said first and second electromechanical actuator elements 5, 6, in addition to any others for moving both the movable arm 4 that the washing head 3 along other axes.
  • auxiliary spray nozzles 33 can also be provided which are intended to act in predetermined areas of the aforementioned box-like protective structure 20 not reached by the nozzles 30 of the orientable washing heads 3.
  • additional spray nozzles 34 can be further provided, intended to be actuated subsequently to those of said orientable washing heads 3, suitable for washing the aforementioned collection tanks 24.
  • the aforementioned liquid is then conveyed to the water treatment plant of the plant, to be duly treated before being disposed of.
  • said feeding system 70 comprises a tank for collecting the resulting liquid evacuated from the collection tanks 24, and a purification and filtering unit intended to treat said waste liquid, so as to regenerate clean water destined to be recycled in the washing cycle of the device 1 itself.
  • said feeding system 70 as well as any filtering and recirculation group, can be centralized for all the decoration cabinets 2 present in the decoration line L.
  • the washing device operates automatically according to a predefined work cycle, therefore without an operator having to intervene, with said cycle advantageously implemented coinciding with said stop of the decoration line for scheduled maintenance.
  • the described variant is revealed in which the supply system operates in a closed circuit, thanks to the reuse of the washing liquid, obtained with means capable of filtering and purifying it.
  • the decoration cabinet with washing device proposed with the present invention is easily realizable, with elements of simple conception and certain reliability, many of which are of normal commercial availability, to guarantee low production costs.
