Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a reel changer having a load-bearing axle including at least one carrying arm with two carrying-arm segments, wherein a printing-material reel may be mounted or clamped on the carrying-arm segments of the carrying arm in a loading mode, and the printing-material reel is displaceable relative to the load-bearing axle by the carrying-arm segments in a production mode, and a control system monitoring the relative spacing between the carrying-arm segments of the carrying arm in the production mode and blocking the respective carrying-arm segments in the event of an impermissible spacing deviation.
- Reel changers of web-fed printing presses assume primarily three main roles: unwinding a printing-material web from a printing-material reel at a defined web speed; applying a defined web tension to the printing-material web to be unwound; and performing a roll change between a printing-material reel which is running out and a new printing-material reel. Reel changers are also referred to as reel carriers.
- To perform a reel change, a new printing-material reel is mounted or clamped on a carrying arm of the reel changer assigned to a load-bearing axle, the clamped printing-material reel subsequently being moved into a working position by pivoting of the load-bearing axle. The position of the load-bearing arm or of the carrying arm, in which a new printing-material reel can be clamped on the carrying arm, is referred to as the loading mode. The working position of the load-bearing axle or of the carrying arm is referred to as the production mode. After a new printing-material reel has been clamped on the carrying arm of the reel changer and has been pivoted into the production mode, the new printing-material reel is accelerated to the circumferential speed of the printing-material reel which is running out and the new printing-material web is adhesively bonded to the printing-material web which is running out. The printing-material web which is running out is then severed with the aid of a dividing knife, and the printing-material reel which is running out is subsequently braked and ejected, whereas the new printing-material reel is active.
- A new printing-material reel is clamped on a carrying arm of the reel changer in the loading mode by moving carrying-arm segments of the carrying arm apart and thereby enlarging the relative spacing between them, in order to position a new printing-material reel between the carrying-arm segments. The carrying-arm segments are subsequently moved towards one another by reducing the relative spacing between them to clamp the printing-material reel on what are known as clamping mandrels of the carrying-arm segments of a carrying arm. Accordingly, in the clamped state of a printing-material reel, the carrying-arm segments of the corresponding carrying arm have a defined relative spacing with respect to one another. In the subsequent, further handling of the printing-material reel, this relative spacing is only allowed to change within certain limits, to ensure that a printing-material reel is constantly clamped securely on a carrying arm and accordingly cannot be released from the carrying arm in an unintended manner. An unintended release of a clamped printing-material reel from the carrying arm is a considerable danger for people who are working on the web-fed printing press.
- It is already known in practice that a control system of a reel changer, namely what is known as a programmable logic controller (PLC), monitors the relative spacing between the carrying-arm segments of a carrying arm in the production mode with the aid of absolute value encoders and blocks the carrying-arm segments in the event of an impermissible spacing deviation. In order to provide a safety system which operates independently of the control system, it is known in practice, furthermore, to aim light barriers at both sides of a clamped printing-material reel, Using such a safety system it is possible to monitor whether the clamping mandrels move out of the printing-material reel, that is to say whether the spacing changes between the respective side of the printing-material reel and the corresponding carrying-arm segment. However, the use of a safety system of this type which is based on light barriers is disadvantageous for a wide variety of reasons.
- For instance, light barriers are very sensitive, have to be cleaned frequently and accordingly require intensive maintenance. Furthermore, intensive and complicated adjustment work is required before commissioning of the light barriers. If a safety system which is based on light barriers is to be suitable for printing-paper reels having different sleeve diameters, a large number of sensors have to be used, as a result of which high costs are incurred.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a reel changer of a web-fed printing press which overcomes the problems of the prior art.
- The object is met by a reel changer of a web-fed printing press having a load-bearing axle with at least one carrying arm having two carrying-arm segments, wherein a printing-material reel may be mounted or clamped on the carrying-arm segments of the carrying arm in a loading mode, the printing-material reel being displaceable relative to the load-bearing axle by the carrying-arm segments in a production mode when the printing-material reel is mounted or clamped on the carrying arm. A control system monitors the relative spacing between the carrying-arm segments of the carrying arm in the production mode and blocking the respective carrying-arm segments in the event of an impermissible spacing deviation. The reel changer further comprises a safety system which operates independently of the control system, and also monitors the relative spacing between the carrying-arm segments of the or every carrying arm in the production mode and blocks the respective carrying-arm segments in the event of an impermissible spacing deviation. The safety system operating independently of the control system comprises a distance measuring device for each carrying-arm segment, which distance measuring devices interact with an evaluation device.
- In the context of the present invention, a safety system which operates independently of the control system is proposed which monitors the relative spacing between the carrying-arm segments of the respective carrying arm in the production mode on the basis of distance measuring devices and blocks the carrying-arm segments in the event of an impermissible spacing deviation between the said carrying-arm segments. The safety system of the reel changer according to the present invention is substantially less expensive and susceptible to faults than the safety system which is known in practice and is based on light barriers.
- There is preferably one encoder per carrying-arm segment, which encoder serves as the position transmitter of the respective carrying-arm segment. The encoders interact with counters, the counters being incremented upwards or downwards as a function of the direction of the displacement of the carrying-arm segments. Encoders and counters form digital distance measuring devices. When the difference between the counters deviates from a setpoint value by a defined amount, an impermissible spacing deviation of the carrying-arm segments can be inferred. In response to the impermissible spacing deviation, the movement of the carrying-arm segments is blocked.
- Instead of digital distance measuring devices, analogue distance measuring devices can also be used which use potentiometers as position transmitters of the respective carrying-arm segments, it then being possible to monitor the relative spacing between the carrying-arm segments of the respective carrying arm by comparing the potentiometer values.
- According to one embodiment of the present invention, the safety system monitors the relative spacing between the carrying-arm segments of a carrying arm in the loading mode and the production mode, but blocks the carrying-arm segments of the respective carrying arm in the event of an impermissible spacing deviation only in the production mode.

arm segments arm 14 are blocked when either the control system 33 or the safety system which operates independently of the control system 33 detects an impermissible spacing deviation between the carrying-arm segments in the production mode. - Thus, while there have shown and described and pointed out fundamental novel features of the invention as applied to a preferred embodiment thereof, it will be understood that various omissions and substitutions and changes in the form and details of the devices illustrated, and in their operation, may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention.
