[0039] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0040] Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0041] Reference Figure 1-3 , a slitting knife assembly, a scissor-type cutting structure configured as a double-slitting knife structure, comprising:
[0042] The cutter structure includes a cutting part that provides cutting action on the film material; a buffer structure is formed on both sides of the film width direction corresponding to the cutting part, and the buffer structure has an action part that deforms toward the rotation axis. The action part provides support for the film while providing deformation space toward the cutting part, and can provide a certain tension force to the film on both sides of the cutting part to improve the flatness of the cutting part.
[0043] The cutter structure is configured as a scissor-type cutting structure with double cutters, which includes a first cutter 3 and a second cutter 5. The first cutter 3 and the second cutter 5 form an axial projection portion that overlaps, that is, the first edge portion 32 of the first cutter 3 and the second edge portion 51 of the second cutter 5 are alternately and staggered during cutting to form a cutting portion, and the two cutter edges have an appropriate horizontal spacing, which does not exceed 5 mm, preferably does not exceed 2 mm.
[0044] Among them, the first cutter 3 is installed on the shaft body 1. In this embodiment, a key connection structure for connecting the cutter is set on the shaft body 1. Of course, the conventional disc-type cutter installation structure in the prior art can also be used, without specific limitation. The shaft body is connected and driven by an external driving structure; the second cutter 5 can also be set as a rotating disc-type cutter structure, or set as a fixed blade-type cutter structure, that is, the blade of the second cutter is fixed and does not rotate. When cutting, just adjust the position of the cutter seat;
[0045] A (rubber) support pad 2 is installed on the shaft body 1 corresponding to the first cutter 3. The first cutter 3 is coaxially arranged with the support pad 2. A cutting groove is formed at the cutting portion corresponding to the support pad 2. The first cutter 3 is arranged in the cutting groove, and the height of the support pad 2 is slightly higher than the outer peripheral edge of the first cutter 3 to avoid scratching the film during rotation. The setting of the support pad 2 also plays a role in supporting the transmission of the film, making the film at the cutting position smoother (drum-type cutter structure); the width D of the cutting groove is set according to the adaptability of the cutter thickness, such as setting it to 5-15mm. In this embodiment, only one cutting groove is shown. According to actual conditions, multiple groups of cutting grooves can be axially arranged on the support pad 2, or multiple (slidably adjustable) matching second cutters 5 can be cooperatively arranged, which should also be covered within the protection scope of this application; when the second cutter is slidably adjustable, its fixed cutter seat can be slidably connected to the corresponding cutter shaft for adjustment, which belongs to the existing conventional technology and its specific structure is not repeated.
[0046] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 The buffer structure includes a first support portion 31 arranged at the outer periphery of the first cutter 3. The first support portion 31 is inclined radially inward and arranged on the outer side (relative to the width direction of the cutting portion) of the first blade portion 32. As an action portion, the inward inclination angle of the first support portion 31 is not greater than the blade inclination angle (back angle), and is preferably smaller than the blade inclination angle; the first support portion 31 has a high degree of finish and can match the speed of the film cutting vehicle to reduce wear;
[0047] Of course, a second support portion 41 may be further provided on the other side of the cutting portion. The second support portion 41 and the second cutter 5 have a horizontal spacing d, which may be a negative value (combined with the adaptive adjustment of the cutter blade), that is, the second support portion 41 is close to the second blade 51, and the spacing should not be too large. The horizontal spacing d is preferably not more than 10 mm. The action surface of the first support portion 31 and / or the second support portion 41 of the action portion may be an inclined plane as shown in the figure, or an arc-shaped transition arc surface; at the same time, since the film and the action portion have similar speeds and remain relatively stationary, they may also be set in a stepped shape, with an arc-shaped transition at the step if necessary. In addition, the first cutter 3 is provided with a chip groove 33 radially inwardly corresponding to the blade portion thereof.
[0048] Through the synergistic effect of the buffer structure and the cutter structure, the cutter will exert pressure on the membrane material during cutting, and the setting of the support part in the buffer structure can make the membrane material at the end realize tension while adapting to the extrusion force of the cutter. Compared with the horizontal action surface in the prior art, the cutting end of the membrane material can provide a larger deformation space, and at the same time, form tension in the width direction of the cutting part of the membrane material, so that the membrane surface is smoother during cutting, and the cutting part is not easily torn due to extrusion.
[0049] Of course, the cutter structure can also be directly set up as a suspended cutting structure (not shown in the figure). In this case, the film to be cut directly passes horizontally through the first cutter 3 and the second cutter 5, and of course, it is necessary to cooperate with other tension rollers to maintain appropriate tension. In this case, the action part of the buffer structure includes the first support part 31 above the first cutter.
[0050] Reference Figure 4-5 , the difference is that the second cutter 5 and the first cutter 3 are provided with a yielding portion 52 at the corresponding cutting portion, so as to cooperate with the first supporting portion to form a gentler film-moving angle of the film material, and also reduce the extrusion and tearing effect of the cutting portion to a certain extent; the yielding portion 52 is an action surface arranged on the side of the second cutter 5 (corresponding to the width direction of the film material), and the angle between it and the film surface is less than 90°. The setting of the yielding portion 52 is also conducive to chip removal.
[0051] In addition, considering that the knife appropriately increases the temperature of the film material to appropriately soften the base film and reduce the polymer base film being more susceptible to tearing and unevenness at low temperatures, a heating component 6 is set in the buffer structure to locally heat the film material at the cutting site.
[0052] At this time, the heating component 6 is configured as an electric heating coil, which is arranged in a groove on the (inner) end face of the first cutter 3, and a wiring harness groove is reserved. The wiring harness can extend from the cavity opened in the middle of the shaft body 1 and be connected through a conductive slip ring.
[0053] Reference Figure 6-7 The main difference is that a single set of cutters is used. At this time, the cutter is basically set in the middle of the cutting groove of the support pad and overlaps with the horizontal projection of the support pad; the two ends of the cutting groove form a first support part and a second support part as the action part.
[0054] At this time, the cutter may also be provided with a chip removal groove (not shown in the figure) on the radial inner side of the cutting portion thereof.
[0055] For the calibration of relevant cutting dimensions, it can be calculated by combining the length of the action part and the overall tilt angle. In actual use, since the overall size of the action part is small and the tilt angle is not large (can be set to no more than 15°), it can be approximately considered that the actual sizes of the two are similar.
[0056] The cutter assembly in the present application can be applied to related slitting equipment, and the width adjustment mechanism and driving mechanism of other related rollers and cutters are the same as the prior art and will not be described in detail.
[0057] In the present application, other structures and connection relationships not described in detail are all prior art, such as the relevant structure of the cooling roller body, whose structure and principle are well-known technologies and will not be repeated here.
