Definitions
- the present invention relates to the production of helically-wound lock-seam tubing, and more specifically concerns a method and an apparatus for such production with a reduced need of lubrication.
- BACKGROUND ART Known machines for producing helically-wound lock- seam tubing are disclosed by, for example, British Patent Publication GB 2,213,748 and US Patent No. 4,706,481. These machines are well-known to the person skilled in the art and thus need not to be described in any detail here. Several further developments of such machines are avail ⁇ able on the market, but these machines still suffer from certain drawbacks, as will be discussed in the following.
- the metal strip used for the production in question is normally coated with zinc in order to be able to with- stand corrosion. The metal strip is thus galvanised, which leads to problems that are well-known to the skilled per ⁇ son.
- the oil is, however, supplied to the metal strip in a very simple manner.
- the lower roller of the first pair of rollers in the edge-forming assembly is permanently i - mersed in oil in a trough, by means of which oil is sup ⁇ plied over the total width of the metal strip.
- this arrangement suffers from several drawbacks, as will be discussed below.
- a further object of the invention is to provide the production of helically-wound lock-seam tubes which are pleasant to handle for the personnel.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a method and an apparatus which are easily adapted to existing machines.
- the tubing produced in accordance with the invention may, for example, be used in ventilation duct systems.
- Fig. 1 schematically illustrates an embodiment of the apparatus according to the invention
- Fig. 2 shows a cross-section of the metal strip before the edge-forming assembly
- Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 2 but shows another embodiment of the lubricant-supplying means, and Fig. 4 shows a cross-section of the metal strip after the edge-forming assembly.
- drive rollers 11 feed a metal strip 12 (arrow A) through an edge-forming assembly having rolls 13, by which longitudinal edge portions 16a, 16b are formed.
- the metal strip 12 is formed and helically wound in a forming head 14 in a known manner for producing a tube 15.
- the forming head 14 has clinching rollers 17-19 for forming a lock seam 25 on the tube 15 fed out of the forming head 14 (arrow B).
- a pair of guiding plates 20 are arranged between the drive rollers 11 and the forming head 14, as is conventional.
- a conduit 30 for supplying a lubricant, for example oil, to the metal strip 12 is arranged under the edge- forming assembly 13.
- the conduit 30 is connected to an oil supply 31.
- a similar oil conduit 32 and an oil supply 33 may be arranged after the drive rollers 11, as will be discussed below.
- the oil conduit 30 is dis ⁇ posed at the edge portion 16a, which in the edge-forming assembly 13 is given the shape of a Z (see Fig. 4).
- the oil conduit 30 has a supply opening 34, which is either applied to the strip 12 or disposed at a short distance therefrom.
- the 34 of the oil conduit 30 is disposed at a greater distance from the metal strip 12, but there is a brush member 35 provided at the end of the conduit 30.
- the brush member 35 is in permanent engagement with the metal strip 12 and compensates for any vertical movements of the strip 12 in production.
- Fig. 4 shows the Z-shaped edge portion 16a and the L-shaped edge portion 16b, which are formed in the edge- forming assembly.
- a corresponding oil supply assembly 32, 33 may optionally be provided after the drive rollers 11.
- the oil conduit 32 has an opening 35 disposed in a corresponding opening
- scraper means 40-43 can be provided before, in connection with and after the forming head 14.
- the scraper 40 comprises rubber lips (not shown) gripping around the edge portions 16a, 16b of the strip 12.
- the scraper 41 on the forming head 14 also has rubber lips (not shown), whereas the scraper 42 arranged in an opening (not shown) of the forming head 14 has means (for example of paper) for absorbing oil.
- the scraper 43 arranged on the outside of the tube 15 can be of any suitable type, preferably a rubber lip member.
- the apparatus can be provided with further scraper and wiper means for the removal of oil.
- the brush member can be of any other suitable design.
