Der Abstand A der Aufnahme 8 für eine Spule 9 zur ersten Umlenkrolle 11, sowie von Umlenkrolle 11 zu jeder folgenden Umlenkrolle 11 sowie von der letzten Umlenkrolle 11 zur Biegerolle 18 und von der Biegerolle 18 zur Verarbeitungsvorrichtung 19 entspricht der Bedingung A = oder < π D, wobei D der jeweilige Durchmesser der Spule 9 bzw. der vorgeordneten Umlenkrolle(n) 11 bzw. der Biegerolle 18 ist. Der Durchmesser jeder Umlenkrolle 11 beträgt zur definierten elastischen Umlenkung des draht- oder mehrdrahtförmigen Gutes

wobei d der Durchmesser, E der Elastizitätsmodul und Rp0,2 die technische Dehngrenze des draht- oder mehrdrahtförmigen Gutes ist. Zur Erzeugung einer konstanten Krümmung des draht- oder mehrdrahtförmigen Gutes in der Krümmungsebene beträgt der Durchmesser der Biegerolle 18
Figure 00040002

Durch die Abstimmung der Durchmesser der Rolle(n) 11 auf den Durchmesser und die Werkstoffeigenschaften des draht- oder mehrdrahtförmigen Gutes gelingt eine nur elastische Umlenkung.By matching the diameter of the roller (s) 11 to the diameter and the material properties of the wire or multi-wire material only an elastic deflection succeeds.

Die Biegerolle 18 kann mit einer nicht dargestellten Einrichtung zum Aufbringen eines zusätzlichen Drehmomentes versehen sein. Das Drehmoment kann sowohl als Antriebs- als auch als Bremsmoment aufgebracht werden. Als Einrichtung zur Aufbringung einer Antriebs- als auch einer Bremskraft kann ein - vorzugsweise unterschiedliche und einstellbare Drehmomente übertragender-Reversiermotor eingesetzt werden. Im Falle, daß nur Bremsmomente übertragen werden sollen, kann auch eine mechanische Bremsvorrichtung vorgesehen sein, wobei jeweils vorzugsweise Kraftmesser und Regler zur Überwachung und automatischen Einhaltung einer vorgegebenen Einwirkkraft vorgesehen sein können. Hierzu können beliebige bekannte Einrichtungen eingesetzt werden, so daß sie hier nicht näher beschrieben werden.The bending roller 18 can be provided with a device, not shown, for application be provided with an additional torque. The torque can can be applied both as drive and braking torque. As A device for applying a drive and a braking force can be a - Preferably different and adjustable torques transmitting reversing motor be used. In the event that only braking torques A mechanical braking device can also be transmitted can be provided, preferably in each case dynamometer and controller for Monitoring and automatic compliance with a specified action force can be provided. Any known devices can be used for this purpose are used so that they are not described in detail here.

Mit der Nutzung der Biegerolle 18 als kombinierte Biege- und Bremsrolle ist die Technologie des Streckbiegerichtens anwendbar. Dabei wird zusätzlich zu den im Richtapparat aufgeprägten Biegungen eine Zugspannung überlagert, wobei der Vorwärtszug durch den notwendigen Transport des Gutes und der Rückwärtszug durch die Bremswirkung der Biegerolle 18 realisiert wird. With the use of the bending roller 18 as a combined bending and braking roller Stretch bending straightening technology applicable. In addition to the in the straightener impressed bends superimposed a tensile stress, whereby the forward move through the necessary transportation of the goods and the Reverse pull is realized by the braking action of the bending roller 18.

Alternativ kann zur Erzeugung eines Rückwärtszuges auch ein Totrichter 20 (Fig. 3) Anwendung finden. Dieser wird zwischen der Biegerolle 18 unmittelbar vor der Verarbeitungsvorrichtung 19 angeordnet und enthält drei drehbar gelagerte Rollen 21, 22, 23, wobei zwei Rollen 22, 23 den gleichen Durchmesser besitzen und auf einem Trägerelement (24) befestigt sind. Das Trägerelement 24 ist kreisrund und um seine Zentralachse 25 drehbar, wobei die Rollen 22, 23 symmetrisch zueinander und zur Zentralachse 25 angeordnet sind. Das Trägerelement 24 ist um seine Zentralachse 25 mittels einer beliebigen Verstellvorrichtung 26 in beide Richtungen definiert verdrehbar angeordnet. Wird das Trägerelement 24 um seine Zentralachse 25 verdreht, ändert sich an den beiden darauf applizierten Rollen 22, 23 der Umschlingungswinkel und demzufolge der Rückwärtszug.Alternatively, a dead judge 20 can also be used to generate a reverse pull (Fig. 3) find application. This is immediately between the bending roller 18 arranged in front of the processing device 19 and contains three rotatable mounted rollers 21, 22, 23, two rollers 22, 23 the same Have diameters and are attached to a carrier element (24). The Carrier element 24 is circular and rotatable about its central axis 25, wherein the rollers 22, 23 are arranged symmetrically to one another and to the central axis 25 are. The carrier element 24 is about its central axis 25 by means of a any adjustment device 26 rotatable in both directions arranged. If the carrier element 24 is rotated about its central axis 25, changes on the two rollers 22, 23 applied to it Wrap angle and consequently the backward pull.

Für rotationssymmetrische Querschnitte, die im allgemeinen auf den betreffenden Apparaten gerichtet werden, hat die Erzeugung und Nutzung von Vorwärts- und Rückwärtszügen zur Folge, daß der Entstehung einer unsymmetrischen Spannungsverteilung im Richtgut entgegengewirkt wird. Durch die Einstellung eines ausgewogenen Verhältnisses der Anteile der Biegung und des Zuges an der Gesamtverformung gelingt es, wesentlich die Qualität, insbesondere die Geradheit bzw. Krümmung des draht- oder mehrdrahtförmigen Gutes zu verbessern.For rotationally symmetrical cross sections, which generally refer to the relevant apparatus has the production and use of Forward and backward trains result in the emergence of a asymmetrical stress distribution in the target is counteracted. By setting a balanced ratio of the shares of Bending and pulling on the overall deformation succeeds essentially Quality, especially the straightness or curvature of the wire or to improve multi-wire goods.

Die Vorrichtung arbeitet so, daß das auf der Spule 9 aufgewickelte Gut, z. B. ein Draht 27, durch Einschaltung des Antriebs 10 von der Spule 9 abgewickelt, über die erste Umlenkrolle 11 an der Deckplatte 3 geführt, dort umgelenkt und einer Umlenkrolle 11 im Gestell 13 zugeführt wird. Gegebenenfalls erfolgt in entsprechender Führung die weitere Umschlingung weiterer Umlenkrollen 11 jeweils paarweise an der Deckplatte 3 und im Tänzer 13. Schließlich wird das die letzte Umlenkrolle 11 im Tänzer 13 umschlingende Ende des Drahtes 27 der Einführungsrolle 18 und über diese der Verarbeitungsvorrichtung 19 zugeführt. The device works so that the wound on the coil 9 good, z. B. a wire 27 unwound from the coil 9 by switching on the drive 10, passed over the first deflection roller 11 on the cover plate 3, deflected there and a deflection roller 11 is supplied in the frame 13. If applicable, takes place in appropriate guidance, the further looping of further deflection rollers 11 each in pairs on the cover plate 3 and in the dancer 13. Finally, the the last deflection roller 11 in the dancer 13 looping end of the wire 27th the introduction roller 18 and, via this, the processing device 19 fed.

Der durch den Tänzer 13 gesteuerte Antrieb gewährleistet den Vorschub in der nachgeschalteten Verarbeitungsvorrichtung 19 unabhängig vom Spulengewicht mit konstanter Kraft. Das Tänzergewicht baut dabei nicht nur in Richtung des Abzuges, sondern auch in Richtung des Abspulens eine konstante Zugspannung auf das abzuspulende Gut auf. Auf die Abzugskraft wirken die Faktoren des Richtens, des Konstantkrümmens über die Biegerolle 18, der Umlenkungen und des - veränderbaren - Gewichts des Tänzers. Alle diese Faktoren bewirken, daß in die Verarbeitungsvorrichtung 19 ein Gut einläuft, das bereits konstante Eigenschaften aufweist, was letztlich dazu führt, daß mit dem Verarbeitungsvorgang eine höherer Qualität erreicht werden kann. Durch die Umlenkung mittels der Umlenkrollen 11 wird auch die Zufuhr zur Biegerolle 18 gleichförmig ausgeführt, wobei ihre Beschichtung - gegebenenfalls auch ihre Gesamtausführung - aus einem den Reibungskoeffizienten erhöhenden Material - z. B, einem Gummi oder Kunststoff - eine Drehung um die Längsachse des Gutes behindert oder verhindert.The drive controlled by the dancer 13 ensures the feed in the downstream processing device 19 regardless of the coil weight with constant force. The weight of the dancer is not only building in the direction of the Deduction, but also in the direction of unwinding a constant Tensile stress on the material to be unwound. They affect the pull-off force Factors of straightening, constant bending over the bending roller 18, the Redirections and the - changeable - weight of the dancer. All these Factors cause the processing device 19 to receive a good that already has constant properties, which ultimately leads to the fact that with the Processing process a higher quality can be achieved. Through the Deflection by means of the deflection rollers 11 also becomes the feed to the bending roller 18 carried out uniformly, their coating - possibly also theirs Overall design - from a coefficient of friction increasing Material - e.g. B, a rubber or plastic - a turn around that Longitudinal axis of the goods hindered or prevented.

Wie oben bereits erwähnt, können eine beliebige Anzahl an Umlenkungen, d. h. auch eine beliebige paarweise Anzahl an Umlenkrollen vorgesehen sein, wobei die Anzahl von den jeweiligen Abzugslängen und der gewünschten Speicherfunktion des Tänzers abhängig ist.As mentioned above, any number of redirections, i.e. H. any number of deflection rollers can also be provided in pairs, where the number of the respective trigger lengths and the desired Memory function of the dancer is dependent.
