Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and an apparatus for feeding Printing ink in the inking unit of printing presses with an ink fountain, which is used for metered filling is assigned a cartridge in a holder that a has displaceable cartridge plunger which is pneumatic for pressing out is acted upon and at the other end a closable outlet opening having.
  • U1 shows such a pneumatic Cartridge squeezing device for squeezing tubular cartridges, the have a mouthpiece at the front end and a mouthpiece at the rear end inserted movable cartridge base are closed.
  • the cartridge is here received in a holder which has a compressed air connection for Feed compressed air into the rear end of the cartridge around the cartridge piston to apply a working pressure.
  • the object of the present invention is based on this State of the art to provide a method and an apparatus with which exact volumetric dosing of the printing ink from the cartridge is made possible.
  • this object is achieved by a method which following process steps is marked: The cartridge is marked with a Pneumatic working pressure is applied, the position of the cartridge piston determined, the cartridge valve is opened, the cartridge piston is in a move the preset target position and then when it is reached Cartridge valve closed position.
  • These process steps can be used precisely meter the amount of ink supplied so that it can also be used in the printing press minimal ink quantities can be worked in the ink fountain.
  • the object is achieved by a device which thereby is characterized in that the holder of the cartridge is controllable Pneumatic connection has that on the bracket when pressurized Cartridge closed valve is arranged that in the upper part of the holder Distance sensor for determining the position of the cartridge piston is provided, and that pneumatic actuating means are provided for opening the cartridge valve are, the pressurization of the cartridge and the actuating means separately he follows.
  • the ink supply in the ink fountain can be done automate, d. H. it can be exactly according to the respective need Add the dosed amount of paint.
  • the distance sensor is as Ultrasonic sensor trained. With this inexpensive sensor is an exact Position measurement of the cartridge piston reached.
  • the cartridge valve is designed as a lift valve that over Pressurization is controllable.
  • the over Pressurization is also controllable.
  • the cartridge valve is designed as a rotary valve which a pneumatic cylinder is controllable.
  • a sealing plate 3 is placed on top of the cartridge 1, which is supported on the bracket 2 and has a compressed air connection 4, with which the cartridge piston 5 can be acted upon pneumatically.
  • a sensor 6 is arranged, which can be designed as an ultrasonic sensor can and the respective position of the hard shower piston 5 in the cartridge 1 measures and forwards the result to a control device.
  • a cartridge valve 7 is provided, which as Lift valve can be formed.
  • a is in the lower part of the bracket 2
  • Lifting device 8 is provided, which has a compressed air connection 9, which has a Lift plate 10 opens the cartridge valve 7.
  • the pressurization of the cartridge piston 5 can be done via a valve 11 control that cooperates with another valve 12, via which Cartridge valve 7 is opened.
  • the control unit not shown, which also the Receives signals from sensor 6, initially applied a constant Working pressure via the valve 11 the cartridge piston 5 when closed Cartridge valve 7. If the position of the cartridge piston 5 is determined, the Valve 12 opens the cartridge valve 7 until the cartridge piston 5 in a preset target position is moving, which is a certain squeezed Color quantity corresponds.
  • Fig. 2 shows a pinch valve 13, which at the outlet of the Cartridge 1 is provided.
  • the hose pinch valve 13 consists of a Hose 14, to which a valve body 15 is assigned.
  • the valve body 15 comprises the hose 14 and contains a piston 16 with which the hose is squeezed can be. Via a compressed air connection 17, which can be controlled by the valve 12, the piston 16 is moved until the hose 14 is closed. To the Opening the hose 14, the piston 16 is in its via a compression spring 18 Moved back to the starting position.
  • Fig. 3 shows at the lower end of the cartridge 1, a rotary valve 19 which at the Outlet opening 20 of the cartridge 1 is provided.
  • the valve body 21 has one Rotary insert 22, which has openings 23 similar to the outlet openings 20 having. By turning through about 90 °, the rotating insert 22 can be in one turn closed position, as drawn, or to a second position, at which the outlet openings 20 and the openings 23 of the rotary insert 22nd match so that color can leak out.
  • the controller itself can e.g. B. about a pneumatic cylinder, not shown, take place with the rotary insert 22nd is coupled.
