Definitions

  • the present invention provides for the application of foam in a predetermined pattern onto a moving web. More particularly, a plurality of valves are associated with respective discharge ports positioned along a manifold which extends transversely to the direction of movement of the web.
  • the manifold is supplied with pressurized dye-carrying foam from a distributor. Means are provided for selectively actuating the valves and for reciprocating the bar.
  • the foam either is applied directly onto the web from the opened ports or is deposited onto an inclined doctor blade from which the foam passes to the web.
  • a pair of standards 10 and 12 support a crossbar 14 which extends transversely to the path of movement of a web (not shown) which is to be dyed.
  • the crossbar 14 is hollow and serves as a manifold for pressurized air which is supplied thereto through inlet 15.
  • Solenoid valves 16 are positioned at spaced locations along the crossbar 14. These valves communicate with the interior of the crossbar and are selectively energized by means of a conventional programmed pattern drum (not shown) in order to allow the passage of pressurized air to lines 18 which extend from valves 16.
  • the crossbar 14 also serves as a support for a foam distributor 20.
  • the details of this distributor are disclosed in the copending United States applica- t ion Serial No. 390,114, filed on June 18, 1982 in the name of Clifford A. Bryant, et al. Briefly, however, the distributor functions by receiving dye-carrying foam from a single input line 22 and discharging the foam through a plurality of conduits 24. Each of the conduits serves as a separate input to a further manifold 26 which also extends transversely to the path of web movement.
  • the manifold 26 is supported at its ends by guidebars 28 and 30 which, in turn are slidably supported by brackets 32 and 34 mounted on standards 10 and 12, respectively.
  • the standard 12 also supports a platform 36 on which a motor 38 is positioned.
  • the motor is connected by conventional mechanical means to drive a disk 40.
  • a connecting rod 42 extends between a plate 44 secured to manifold 26 and a pivctal correction to the disk 40 at a point offset with respect to its axis of rotation. As a result, the operatich of motor 38 produces reciprocation of the manifold 26.
  • a bracket 46 is jorned to manifold 26 to support a plurality of pneumatic cylinders 48 equally spaced along the manifold. As can be appreciated from Figure 2, each of these cylinders is mechanically connected to a respective valve 50 within the manifold 26. As a valve 16 is energized to direct pressurized air via its associated line 18 to a cylinder 48, a piston (not shown) within the cylinder is elevated to raise a rod 52 which in turn.is joined by a link 54 to a valve rod 56 extending from valve 50 through the upper wall of the manifold 26. As rod 52 is raised, the valve 50 is unseated to allow foam within the manifold to pass through a corresponding discharge port 58 in the manifold's lower wall.
  • the arrangement illustrated in Figure 1 includes an inclined doctor blade 60 positioned beneath the ports. This blade carries the discharged foam to a web passing by the lower edge of the blade.
  • the blade 60 is secured to a rod 62 which is pivotally connected at its ends to a pair of links 64 and 66.
  • the opposite ends of the links are secured to a rod 68 which is pivotally joined to a pair of slidable members 70 and 72 which ride along respective parallel tracks 74 and 76.
  • a connecting rod 78 joins each of the members 70 and 72 to pivotal connections on respective disks 80 which are joined by a rod 82.
  • Rotation of disks 80 moves the slidable members 70 and 72 along their respective tracks thereby altering the position of rod 68.
  • a member 84 provided with an arcuate slot, is secured to member 70, and the slot receives a post 86 projecting from link 84.
  • the positions of member 70 along track 74, and post 86 along slot 88, are suitably graduated.
  • the relationship between rod 62 and link 64 is graduated.
  • Conventional locking means (not shown) permit members 70 and 72 to be secured at selected locations along their respective tracks.
  • the angular positions of links 64 and 66, as well as the relative position of rod 62 with respect to these links can be frozen by suitable locking means.
  • the horizontal and vertical positions of the doctor blade 60, as well as its inclination are adjustable over a wide range.
  • the solenoid valves 16 are.selectively energized by the programmed drum to actuate the corresponding pneumatic cylinders 48. This causes the associated valves 50 to open to discharge pressurized foam from the ports 58. Simultaneously, the foam-containing manifold is oscillated transversely of the web. Since the pattern is established by the controllable actuation of valves 16 and the reciprocation of the manifold 26, a repeatable pattern of foam dyeing can be achieved.
  • each of the discharge ports 58 has been considered as a single round aperture.
  • variations in the patterns produced can be achieved by securing caps with different types of discharge openings over the ports 58.
  • the caps 90 include, respectively, an array of small holes and an elongated slit.
  • each discharge port 58 from manifold 26 a separate solenoid valve 16 and pneumatic cylinder 48.
  • a single control element in the form of a solenoid can be connected to each of the valves 50.
  • the stems of the valves must be provided with return springs so that the valves will close upon deenergization of the solenoids.
  • a still further variation employs a solenoid pinch valve.
  • a solenoid pinch valve Such a valve includes a foam-carrying tube passing through the valve. When deenergized, the tube is pinched to stop the flow of foam. However, when the solenoid is energized, the tube is released to allow foam to flow.
  • the foam be discharged from ports 58 onto a water or foam sheet which moves along the blade and is deposited on the web.
  • the water or foam sheet can carry a dye of different color from that discharged from ports 58. This permits multi-colors to be applied to the web.
