Abstract

The invention relates to a device (11) for stabilising the transport of a material web (12) on the upper face of an air-permeable machine clothing (10), in particular a fibrous web. The device is located on the underside of the machine clothing directly upstream of an intake nip in the direction of travel (17) of the web, said nip being formed by a roll (5) and the machine clothing, and comprises a first negative-pressure zone (19) and at least one vacuum opening (20) that faces essentially in the opposite direction to the direction of travel of the web, communicating with the first negative-pressure zone of the device. This permits the boundary layer (23) of air that is carried along by the underside of the machine clothing to be at least partially sucked from said clothing into the first negative-pressure zone.

Description

Vorrichtung zur BahnstabilisierungDevice for web stabilization
Diese Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Stabilisierung des Transports einer auf der Oberseite einer Bespannung geführten Materialbahn, insbesondere eine Faserstoffbahn, nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.This invention relates to a device for stabilizing the transport of a guided on the top of a fabric web, in particular a fibrous web, according to the preamble of claim 1.
Insbesondere bei hohen Bahngeschwindigkeiten und bei strukturierten Bespannungen mit rauer und grober Oberseite sowie bei dünnen und leichten Faserstoffbahnen, wie bspw. Tissuebahnen, besteht die Problematik, dass die geführte Materialbahn oftmals im Bereich eines durch eine Walze und die Bespannung gebildeten Einlaufspalts von der Bespannung abgehoben wird, was die Bildung von Streifen und Falten und daraus folgend eine schlechte Wickelqualität zur Folge hat.Particularly at high web speeds and in structured coverings with rough and coarse upper side and in thin and lightweight fibrous webs, such as tissue webs, there is the problem that the guided material web is often lifted off the fabric in the region of an inlet gap formed by a roller and the clothing , which results in the formation of streaks and wrinkles and, consequently, poor winding quality.
Der Grund ist darin zu sehen, dass bspw. raue Siebe sehr voluminös sind und daher viel Luft, sowohl im Inneren als auch Außen in Form einer Luftgrenzschicht, tragen. Läuft eine auf einem solchen Sieb geführte Materialbahn in den durch das Sieb und eine Walze gebildeten Einlaufspalt, so wird die mit dem Sieb mitgeführte Luftgrenzschicht im Einlaufspalt aufgrund des sich verringernden Volumens komprimiert und es kommt in diesem Bereich zur Ausbildung eines Überdrucks, der sich durch das luftdurchlässige Sieb abbaut, mit der Folge der Abhebung der Materialbahn. Dieser Effekt tritt insbesondere bei leichten Materialbahnen wie Tissuebahnen auf.The reason is that, for example, rough screens are very voluminous and therefore carry a lot of air, both inside and outside in the form of an air boundary layer. If a material web guided on such a sieve runs into the inlet gap formed by the sieve and a roller, the air boundary layer entrained with the sieve is compressed in the inlet gap due to the decreasing volume and in this region an overpressure is created which runs through the permeable screen degrades, with the result of lifting the web. This effect occurs especially in light webs such as tissue webs.
Es ist die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung eine Vorrichtung zur Transportstabilisierung einer Materialbahn im Bereich eines Einlaufspalts vorzuschlagen, bei der die oben beschriebenen Probleme behoben sind. Die Erfindung wird gelöst durch eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1.It is the object of the present invention to provide a device for transport stabilization of a material web in the region of an inlet gap, in which the problems described above are eliminated. The invention is solved by a device having the features of patent claim 1.
Gemäß dem Oberbegriff handelt es sich um eine Vorrichtung zurAccording to the preamble, it is a device for
Transportstabilisierung eines auf der Oberseite einer luftdurchlässigen Bespannung geführten bahnförmigen Gutes, insbesondere eine Faserstoffbahn. Hierbei ist dieTransport stabilization of a run on the top of an air-permeable fabric web-like material, in particular a fibrous web. Here is the
Vorrichtung an der Unterseite der Bespannung und in Bahnlaufrichtung unmittelbar vor einem durch eine Walze und die Bespannung gebildeten Einlaufspalt angeordnet und weist eine erste Unterdruckzone auf. Die Erfindung ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Vorrichtung ein Leitelement hat, welches derart angeordnet ist, dass von der Unterseite der Bespannung mitgeführte Luftgrenzschicht zumindest teilweise von derDevice disposed on the underside of the fabric and in the web running direction immediately before an inlet gap formed by a roller and the fabric and has a first negative pressure zone. The invention is characterized in that the device has a guide element, which is arranged in such a way that the air boundary layer entrained from the underside of the clothing at least partially separates from the air barrier layer
Bespannung weggeleitet und in die erste Unterdruckzone gelenkt wird.Led fabric is diverted and directed into the first vacuum zone.
Erfindungsgemäß ist zumindest eine im wesentlichen gegen die Bahnlaufrichtung weisende und mit der ersten Unterdruckzone der Vorrichtung kommunizierende Saugöffnung vorgesehen, sodass die von der Unterseite der Bespannung mitgeführte Luftgrenzschicht zumindest teilweise von der Bespannung in die erste Unterdruckzone gesaugt wird.According to the invention, at least one suction opening pointing substantially counter to the web running direction and communicating with the first vacuum zone of the apparatus is provided so that the air boundary layer entrained from the underside of the clothing is at least partially drawn from the clothing into the first vacuum zone.
Somit wird durch die gegen die Bahnlaufrichtung weisende und mit der ersten Unterdruckzone kommunizierende Saugöffnung die von der Bespannung mitgeführte Luftgrenzschicht von der Bespannung in eine erste Unterdruckzone gesaugt, bevor die Luftgrenzschicht in den Einlaufspalt gelangen kann, komprimiert wird und einen Überdruck erzeugt, der sich durch die luftdurchlässige Bespannung abbaut und zum Abheben der auf der Bespannung geführten Materialbahn führt.Thus, by pointing against the direction of web travel and communicating with the first vacuum zone suction port entrained by the fabric air boundary layer of the fabric in a first vacuum zone before the air boundary layer can get into the inlet gap, is compressed and generates an overpressure, which is characterized by degrades air-permeable fabric and leads to lifting the guided on the fabric web.
Um die Luftgrenzschicht über die Breite der Bespannung, insbesondere über die luftdurchlässige Breite der Bespannung, in die erste Unterdruckzone wegführen zu können, ist es sinnvoll, wenn in Querrichtung der Bespannung, insbesondere über die luftdurchlässige Breite der Bespannung, mehrere Saugöffnungen hintereinander liegend angeordnet sind. Um einen gleichen Effekt wie im oberen Abschnitt erläutert zu erzielen, kann es in manchen Anwendungsfällen auch sinnvoll sein, wenn eine Saugöffnung vorgesehen ist, die sich in Querrichtung, insbesondere im wesentlichen über die luftdurchlässige Breite der Bespannung, erstreckt.In order to be able to lead the air boundary layer over the width of the fabric, in particular over the air-permeable width of the fabric, in the first vacuum zone, it makes sense if in the transverse direction of the fabric, in particular on the air-permeable width of the fabric, several suction openings are arranged one behind the other. In order to achieve the same effect as explained in the upper section, it may also be useful in some applications if a suction opening is provided, which extends in the transverse direction, in particular substantially over the air-permeable width of the fabric.
Um die Wirkungsweise der gegen die Bahnlaufrichtung weisenden Saugöffnung zu erhöhen, ist es sinnvoll ein Leitelement vorzusehen, welches derart angeordnet ist, dass die von der Unterseite der Bespannung mitgeführte Luftgrenzschicht zumindest teilweise von der Bespannung zur Saugöffnung geleitet wird.In order to increase the mode of action of the suction opening facing the web running direction, it is expedient to provide a guide element which is arranged in such a way that the air boundary layer entrained from the underside of the clothing is at least partially guided by the clothing to the suction opening.
Hierbei ist das Leitelement in Bahnlaufrichtung vor der ersten Unterdruckzone angeordnet.Here, the guide element is arranged in the web running direction in front of the first vacuum zone.
Bevorzugt weist das Leitelement eine Leitfläche auf.The guide element preferably has a guide surface.
Um die mit der Bespannung mitgeführte Luftgrenzschicht möglichst effektiv und vollständig von der Bespannung wegführen zu können ist es sinnvoll, wenn die Leitfläche des Leitelements einendseitig gegen die Bahnlaufrichtung schräg in Richtung der Unterseite der Bespannung und andernendseitig in Richtung der gegen die Bahnlaufrichtung weisenden Saugöffnung weist. Damit ist es besonders effektiv möglich die Luftgrenzschicht von der Bespannung abzuschälen und der Saugöffnung zuzuführen.In order to be able to lead the air boundary layer entrained with the covering as effectively and completely as possible from the fabric, it makes sense if the guide surface of the guide element has at one end against the web running obliquely in the direction of the underside of the fabric and the other end in the direction of the facing against the web running suction port. This makes it particularly effective possible to peel off the air boundary layer of the fabric and supply the suction port.
Das Wegführen der Luftgrenzschicht wird weiter dadurch optimiert, wenn das in Richtung der Unterseite der Bespannung weisende Ende der Leitfläche in unmittelbarer Nähe der Unterseite der Bespannung angeordnet ist, sodass der Abstand zwischen dem Ende und der Unterseite der Bespannung möglichst gering ist und somit ein nur geringer Anteil der Luftgrenzschicht im Spalt zwischen Bespannung und Ende „entflüchten" kann. Zur Verbesserung der Wirkungsweise des Leitelements trägt auch bei, wenn das Leitelement im Bereich des zur Unterseite der Bespannung weisenden Endes der Leitfläche in seinem Querschnitt spitz zur Bespannung zulaufend ausgebildet ist. Dadurch kann die „abgeschälte" Luftgrenzschicht möglichst wirbelfrei und Druckaufbau von der Bespannung weggeleitet werden.The routing of the air boundary layer is further optimized by the fact that in the direction of the underside of the fabric facing end of the guide surface is located in the immediate vicinity of the underside of the fabric, so that the distance between the end and the underside of the fabric is as low as possible and thus only a small Part of the air boundary layer in the gap between covering and end "escape" can. To improve the mode of action of the guide element also contributes, when the guide element in the region of the underside of the fabric facing end of the guide surface is pointed in its cross-section tapered tapering for covering. As a result, the "peeled-off" air boundary layer can be led away from the clothing as swirl-free as possible and pressure build-up.
Zum effektiven wegleiten der Luftgrenzschicht ist es des weiteren sinnvoll, wenn sich das Leitelement in Querrichtung der Bespannung, insbesondere im wesentlichen über die luftdurchlässige Breite der Bespannung, erstreckt.For the effective conduct away the air boundary layer, it is also useful if the guide element extends in the transverse direction of the fabric, in particular substantially over the air-permeable width of the fabric.
Das Leitelement ist kostengünstig als Leitblech, bspw. durch einen Umformprozess oder dgl. herstellbar.The guide element is inexpensive as a guide plate, for example. By a forming process or the like. Produced.
Eine Möglichkeit die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung konstruktiv auszuführen, besteht darin, dass die Vorrichtung zumindest eine im wesentlichen gegen die Bahnlaufrichtung weisende und mit der ersten Unterdruckzone der Vorrichtung kommunizierende Saugöffnung aufweist. Die Saugöffnung, ist hierbei in Bahnlaufrichtung hinter dem Leitelement angeordnet und weist gegen die Bahnlaufrichtung in die Richtung der Strömung der „abgeschälten" Luftschicht, so dass die von dem Leitelemeπt „abgeschälte" Luftgrenzschicht direkt über die Saugöffnung in die erste Unterdruckzone gelangen kann.One possibility for structurally implementing the device according to the invention is that the device has at least one suction opening pointing substantially counter to the web running direction and communicating with the first vacuum zone of the device. The suction opening, in this case, is arranged in the web running direction behind the guide element and points against the web running direction in the direction of flow of the "peeled" air layer, so that the "peeled off" of the Leitelemeπt air boundary layer can pass directly through the suction port into the first negative pressure zone.
Um zu verhindern, dass sich eine neue Luftgrenzschicht aufbaut, nachdem eine Luftgrenzschicht durch das Zusammenwirken von Leitelement und ersterIn order to prevent a new air boundary layer from building up, an air boundary layer is created by the interaction of the guide element and the first
Unterdruckzone von der Unterseite der Bespannung abgeschält wurde kann es sinnvoll sein, wenn die Vorrichtung zumindest eine im wesentlichen in Richtung derVacuum zone has been peeled off from the underside of the fabric, it may be useful if the device at least one substantially in the direction of
Unterseite der Bespannung weisende und mit der ersten Unterdruckzone derUnderside of the clothing facing and with the first vacuum zone of
Vorrichtung kommunizierende Saugöffnung aufweist. Die zur Unterseite der Bespannung weisende Saugöffnung ist hierbei in Bahnlaufrichtung hinter demHaving device communicating suction port. The pointing to the underside of the fabric suction opening is in this case in the web running direction behind the
Leitelement angeordnet. Um die Entstehung einer neuen Luftgrenzschicht in Quererstreckung der Bespannung zu verhindern, ist es sinnvoll, wenn in Querrichtung der Bespannung mehrere der zur Unterseite der Bespannung weisenden Saugöffnungen hintereinander liegend angeordnet sind oder wenn eine Saugöffnung vorgesehen ist, die sich in Querrichtung, insbesondere im wesentlichen über die luftdurchlässige Breite der Bespannung erstreckt.Guiding element arranged. In order to prevent the formation of a new air boundary layer in transverse extent of the fabric, it makes sense if several of the suction openings pointing to the underside of the fabric are arranged one behind the other in the transverse direction of the fabric or if a suction opening is provided which extends in the transverse direction, in particular substantially over the air-permeable width of the fabric extends.
Ebenfalls kann es zur Verhinderung des Aufbaus einer neuen Luftgrenzschicht bis zum Einlaufspalt sinnvoll sein, wenn zwischen der ersten Unterdruckzone und dem Einlaufspalt eine zweite Unterdruckzone gebildet wird.It may also be useful to prevent the construction of a new air boundary layer to the inlet gap when a second negative pressure zone is formed between the first negative pressure zone and the inlet gap.
Abhängig von der konstruktiven Ausführung, kann es möglich sein, dass die zweite Unterdruckzone durch eine zur ersten Unterdruckzone unabhängige Saugvorrichtung besaugt wird oder aber dass die erste und die zweite Unterdruckzone durch eine gemeinsame Saugvorrichtung besaugt werden.Depending on the structural design, it may be possible that the second vacuum zone is evacuated by a suction device independent of the first vacuum zone, or else that the first and second negative pressure zones are evacuated by a common suction device.
Des weiteren kann es möglich sein, dass sich die erste Unterdruckzone bis zum Einlaufspalt erstreckt. In diesem Fall fallen die erste und die zweite Unterdruckzone zusammen.Furthermore, it may be possible for the first vacuum zone to extend to the inlet gap. In this case, the first and the second negative pressure zone coincide.
Um die von der Walze in den Einlaufspalt mitgeführte Luftgrenzschicht wegzuleiten und somit ebenfalls einen Überdruck mit daraus folgender Bahnabhebung verhindern zu können, sieht eine weitere Ausgestaltung der Erfindung vor, dass unmittelbar vor dem Einlaufspalt eine auf die Walze wirkende Schaberklinge derart angeordnet ist, dass von der Walze mitgeführte Luftgrenzschicht von der Walze weggeleitet wird.In order to be able to conduct away the air boundary layer entrained by the roller into the inlet gap and thus likewise to be able to prevent overpressure with consequent web lift, a further embodiment of the invention provides that a doctor blade acting on the roller is arranged directly in front of the inlet gap in such a way that Roller entrained air boundary layer is led away from the roller.
Besonders effektiv wird ein Bahnabheben verhindert, wenn die erste und / oder die zweite Unterdruckzone im Bereich zwischen Einlaufspalt, Schaberklinge und der Vorrichtung gebildet wird. Dies bedeutet, dass durch das Leitelement die Luftgrenzschicht von der Unterseite der Bespannung weggeleitet wird, dass durch die Schaberklinge die Luftgrenzschicht von der Walze weggeleitet wird und dass durch die Bildung einer Unterdruckzone (erste und / oder zweite) verhindert wird, dass sich bis zu Einlaufspalt eine neue Luftgrenzschicht an Walze und an der Unterseite der Bespannung aufbauen kann.A web lifting is prevented particularly effectively if the first and / or the second vacuum zone is formed in the region between the inlet gap, doctor blade and the device. This means that the air boundary layer is led away from the underside of the fabric by the guide element, that the air boundary layer is led away from the roller by the doctor blade and that by the formation of a negative pressure zone (first and / or second) is prevented, that can build up to inlet gap a new air boundary layer on roller and on the underside of the fabric.
Um die Bildung der Luftgrenzschicht im Vorlauf zur Vorrichtung zu reduzieren, kann es sinnvoll sein, wenn in Bahnlaufrichtung vor dem Leitelement eine dritte auf die Unterseite der Bespannung wirkende Unterdruckzone gebildet wird.In order to reduce the formation of the air boundary layer in the flow to the device, it may be useful if in the web running direction in front of the guide element, a third acting on the underside of the fabric vacuum zone is formed.
Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung kann überall dort zum Einsatz kommen wo die Gefahr der Bahnabhebung durch Luftgrenzschicht erzeugten Überdruck im Bereich des Einlaufspalts besteht. Dies ist insbesondere bei hohen Bahngeschwindigkeiten (bspw. mehr als 800 Meter/min oder besonders mehr als 1100Meter/min) oder bei langen freien Traπsportstreckeπ der Bespannung ohne Unterstützung durch eine Walze (hier kann sich über die lange frei Transportstrecke eine Luftgrenzschicht aufbauen) oder bei Verwendung voluminöser und / oder strukturierter Bespannungen wie Bänder oder Prägebänder oder Filzen oder Prägefilzen oder Membranen, insbesondere Spectra-Membran oder TAD (through air dryerJ-Bändern oder beim Transport dünner und leichter Faserstoffbahnen wie Tissuebahnen gegeben.The device according to the invention can be used wherever the danger of web lift caused by air boundary layer overpressure in the region of the inlet gap. This is especially at high web speeds (eg more than 800 meters / min or especially more than 1100 meters / min) or long free Traπsportstreckeπ the fabric without support by a roller (here can build on the long free transport route an air boundary layer) or at Use of voluminous and / or structured coverings such as tapes or embossing tapes or felts or embossing felts or membranes, in particular Spectra membrane or TAD (through-air dryer belts or when transporting thin and light fibrous webs such as tissue webs.
Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung findet demzufolge vorzugsweise Verwendung in einer Transfereinrichtung, welche bspw. zwischen einer Trockeneinrichtung, insbesondere einem Yankee-Trockenzylinder, und einer Aufwickeleinrichtung einer Papiermaschine, insbesondere einer Tissuemaschine, angeordnet ist.The device according to the invention is therefore preferably used in a transfer device which, for example, is arranged between a drying device, in particular a Yankee drying cylinder, and a take-up device of a paper machine, in particular a tissue machine.
Die Erfindung soll anhand der folgenden nicht maßstäblichen Zeichnungen näher erläutert werden. Es zeigen:The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the following non-scale drawings. Show it:

Die Figur 1 zeigt einen Teil einer Tissuemaschine 1 in Seitenansicht. Der dargestellte Teil zeigt einen Abschnitt eines Yankee-Trockenzylinders 2 einer Trockeneinrichtung, eine Wickelvorrichtung 3, einen Tambour 4 und eine als Wickeltrommel 5 ausgebildete Walze aufweisend, sowie eine Transfereinrichtung 6, Umlenkrollen 7, 8, 9, die Wickeltrommel 5, eine als TAD- Sieb 10 ausgebildete Bespannung und die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung zu Transportstabilisierung 11 umfassend.FIG. 1 shows a side view of a part of a tissue machine 1. The illustrated part shows a section of a Yankee drying cylinder 2 of a drying device, a winding device 3, a spool 4 and a roller formed as a winding drum 5, and a transfer device 6, pulleys 7, 8, 9, the winding drum 5, as a TAD- Sieve 10 formed fabric and the inventive device for transport stabilization 11 comprising.
Eine Tissuepapierbahn 12 wird vom Yankee-Trockenzylinder 2 mittels eines Kreppschabers 13 abgenommen. Die so gekreppte Tissuepapierbahn 12 wird dann mit Hilfe eines Saugkastens 16 auf das TAD- Sieb 10 transferiert und auf der Oberseite 14 des TDA- Siebs 10 bis zur Wickelvorrichtuήg 3 transportiert, anschließend durch einem zwischen dem Tambour 4 und der Wickeltrommel 5 gebildeten Spalt 14 befördert und schließlich auf dem Tambour 4 aufgewickelt.A tissue paper web 12 is removed from the Yankee drying cylinder 2 by means of a creping doctor 13. The thus creped tissue paper web 12 is then transferred by means of a suction box 16 to the TAD screen 10 and transported on the top 14 of the TDA sieve 10 to Wickelvorrichtuήg 3, then conveyed by a formed between the spool 4 and the winding drum 5 gap 14 and finally wound up on the reel 4.
Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung 11 weist in der vorliegenden Ausführungsform einen ersten Saugkasten 15, einen zweiten Saugkasten 29 und einen dritten Saugkasten 30 auf.The device 11 according to the invention has, in the present embodiment, a first suction box 15, a second suction box 29 and a third suction box 30.
Der erste Saugkasten 15 ist in Bahnlaufrichtung 17 der Tissuebahn 12 unmittelbar vor einem durch das TAD- Sieb 10 und der Wickeltrommel 5 gebildeten Einlaufspalt 18 angeordnet. Der erste Saugkasten 15 erzeugt eine erste Unterdruckzone 19. Der Saugkasten 15 weist mehrere in Querrichtung des TAD- Siebs 10 hintereinander liegend angeordnete und gegen die Bahnlaufrichtung weisende und mit der ersten Unterdruckzone 19 kommunizierende Säugöffnungen 20 auf (siehe Figur 2). In Bahnlaufrichtung 17 vor den Saugöffnungen 20 und somit vor der ersten Unterdruckzone 19 ist ein sich in Querrichtung des Siebs 10 erstreckendes und als Leitblech 21 ausgebildetes Leitelement angeordnet. Das Leitblech 21 erstreckt sich hierbei in Querrichtung im wesentlichen über die luftdurchlässige Breite des Siebs 10. Das Leitelement hat eine Leitfläche 33. Ein Ende 24 der Leitfläche 33 weist gegen die Bahnlaufrichtung 17 in Richtung der Unterseite 22 des TAD- Siebs 10 und das andere Ende 34 der Leitfläche 33 weist in Richtung der Saugöffnungen 20. Damit ist es möglich an der Unterseite 22 des TAD- Siebs 10 mitgeführte Luftgrenzschicht 23 von dem TAD- Sieb 10 abzuschälen, von diesem wegzuführen und über die Saugöffnungen 20 in die erste Unterdruckzone 19 zu lenken. Im Bereich des EndesThe first suction box 15 is arranged in the web running direction 17 of the tissue web 12 immediately before an inlet gap 18 formed by the TAD wire 10 and the winding drum 5. The first suction box 15 generates a first vacuum zone 19. The suction box 15 has a plurality of mammally disposed in the transverse direction of the TAD sieve 10 one behind the other and facing the direction of web travel and communicating with the first vacuum zone 19 mammalian openings 20 (see Figure 2). In the web running direction 17 in front of the suction openings 20 and thus in front of the first vacuum zone 19, a guide element extending in the transverse direction of the wire 10 and designed as a guide plate 21 is arranged. The guide plate 21 extends in this case in the transverse direction substantially over the air-permeable width of the screen 10. The guide element has a guide surface 33. An end 24 of the guide surface 33 points against the web running direction 17 in the direction of the bottom 22 of the TAD sieve 10 and the other end 34 of the guide surface 33 points in the direction of the suction openings 20. Thus, it is possible on the underside 22 of the TAD sieve 10 entrained air boundary layer 23 from the TAD screen 10 to peel away from this and lead via the suction openings 20 in the first negative pressure zone 19 , In the area of the end
24 der Leitfläche 33 ist das Leitelement 21 im Querschnitt spitz zum Sieb 10 zulaufend ausgebildet. Dadurch kann die „abgeschälte" Luftgrenzschicht 23 möglichst wirbelfrei und ohne Druckaufbau vom Sieb 10 weggeleitet werden.24 of the guide surface 33, the guide element 21 is formed tapering in cross section to the wire 10 tapered. As a result, the "peeled off" air boundary layer 23 can be led away from the wire 10 as swirl-free as possible and without pressure build-up.
Das Wegführen der Luftgrenzschicht 23 von der Unterseite 22 des TAD- Siebs 10 wird dadurch optimiert, wenn das in Richtung der Unterseite 22 des Siebs 10 weisende Ende 24 der Leitfläche 33 in unmittelbarer Nähe (hier: in zeitweisem Kontakt) zur Unterseite 22 des Siebs 10 angeordnet ist, sodass der Abstand zwischen dem Ende 24 und der Unterseite 22 des Siebs 10 möglichst gering ist und somit ein nur geringer Anteil der Luftgrenzschicht 23 im Spalt zwischen Sieb 10 und Ende 24 „entflüchten" kann.The removal of the air boundary layer 23 from the underside 22 of the TAD sieve 10 is thereby optimized when the pointing in the direction of the bottom 22 of the wire 10 end 24 of the guide surface 33 in close proximity (here: in temporary contact) to the bottom 22 of the wire 10th is arranged so that the distance between the end 24 and the bottom 22 of the wire 10 is as small as possible and thus only a small proportion of the air boundary layer 23 in the gap between the wire 10 and end 24 "escape" can.
Des weiteren weist der Saugkasten 15 eine sich in Querrichtung des Siebs 10 erstreckende und in Richtung der Unterseite 22 des Siebs 10 weisende und mit der ersten Unterdruckzone 19 kommunizierende Saugöffnung 25 auf. Die SaugöffnungFurthermore, the suction box 15 has a suction opening 25 extending in the transverse direction of the wire 10 and pointing in the direction of the underside 22 of the wire 10 and communicating with the first vacuum zone 19. The suction opening
25 ist hierbei in Bahnlaufrichtung 17 hinter dem Leitblech 21 angeordnet.25 is arranged in the web running direction 17 behind the baffle 21.
Der Bereich in dem die Saugöffnungen 20 und 25 angeordnet sind erstreckt sich im wesentlichen über die luftdurchlässige Breite des TAD- Siebs 10.The area in which the suction openings 20 and 25 are arranged extends in FIG substantially across the air-permeable width of the TAD mesh 10.
In Bahnlaufrichtung 17 hinter der ersten Unterdruckzone 19 ist der zweite Saugkasten 29 angeordnet, welcher eine zweite Unterdruckzone 26 erzeugt. Die zweite Unterdruckzone 26 erstreckt sich im wesentlichen bis zum Einlaufspalt 18 und bis zu einer auf die Wickeltrommel 5 einwirkenden Schaberklinge 27.In the web running direction 17 behind the first vacuum zone 19, the second suction box 29 is arranged, which generates a second negative pressure zone 26. The second vacuum zone 26 extends substantially to the inlet gap 18 and up to a scraper blade 27 acting on the winding drum 5.
Hierdurch wird besonders effektiv ein Abheben der Tissuepapierbahn 12 verhindert, da durch das Leitblech 21 und die erste Unterdruckzone 19 die Luftgrenzschicht 23 von der Unterseite 22 des Siebs 10 weggeleitet wird, durch die Schaberklinge 27 eine Luftgrenzschicht 28 von der Wickeltrommel 5 weggeleitet wird und durch die Bildung der zweiten Unterdruckzone 26 verhindert wird, dass sich bis zum Einlaufspalt 18 eine neue Luftgrenzschicht an der Wickeltrommel 5 und an der Unterseite 22 des Siebs 10 aufbauen kann.As a result, a lifting of the tissue paper web 12 is particularly effectively prevented because the air boundary layer 23 is led away from the bottom 22 of the screen 10 through the baffle 21 and the first vacuum zone 19, through the doctor blade 27, an air boundary layer 28 is led away from the winding drum 5 and through the Forming the second negative pressure zone 26 is prevented that can build up to the inlet gap 18, a new air boundary layer on the winding drum 5 and on the bottom 22 of the screen 10.
Im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel sind die erste Unterdruckzone 19 und die zweite Unterdruckzone 26 zueinander separat besaugt.In the present embodiment, the first negative pressure zone 19 and the second negative pressure zone 26 are each separately evacuated.
Um die Bildung der Luftgrenzschicht 23 bereits im Vorlauf zu reduzieren, ist in Bahnlaufrichtung 17 vor dem Leitblech 21 der dritte Saugkasten 30 angeordnet, welcher eine dritte auf die Unterseite 22 des Siebs 10 wirkende Unterdruckzone 31 erzeugt. Die dritte Unterdruckzone 31 wirkt über eine mit ihr kommunizierende Saugöffnung 32 auf die Unterseite 22 des Siebs 10 ein.In order to reduce the formation of the air boundary layer 23 already in the flow, the third suction box 30 is arranged in the web running direction 17 in front of the baffle 21, which generates a third on the bottom 22 of the screen 10 acting vacuum zone 31. The third negative pressure zone 31 acts on the underside 22 of the screen 10 via a suction opening 32 communicating with it.
Die Figur 2 zeigt eine abschnittweise Detailvergrößerung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung 11. Zu erkennen ist ein Teil des ersten Saugkastens 15, durch welchen eine erste Unterdruckzone 19 gebildet wird. Der Saugkasten 15 weist gegen die Bahnlaufrichtung 17 weisende Saugöffnungen 20 und in Richtung der Unterseite 22 des Siebs 10 weisende Saugöffnungen 25 auf, welche mit der ersten Unterdruckzone 19 kommunizieren. Das Leitelement 21 ist im Bereich des zur Unterseite 22 des Siebs 10 weisenden Endes 24 der Leitfläche 33 im Querschnitt spitz zur Unterseite 22 zulaufend ausgebildet und zur Unterseite 22 unmittelbar benachbart abgeordnet.FIG. 2 shows a section by detail enlargement of the device 11 according to the invention.
