Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a positioning device, in particular to a film edge positioning device. Background Art

[0002] During the PET film production process, the film's edges can shift and misalign during winding and unwinding due to positional fluctuations, tilted angles, or vibrational offsets of guide rollers. This can cause an uneven film interface, impacting product quality and even the next processing step. Manually measuring the film's edge during high-speed winding and unwinding is difficult. If measurement is required, production must be stopped on-site. If the film's edge offset exceeds a predetermined value, the film must be corrected. If the offset is within the predetermined range, the winding and unwinding process must be restarted, consuming significant time and effort, significantly reducing winding and unwinding efficiency.

[0019] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 A film edge positioning device shown includes a first roller 1, a second roller 2, a photoelectric sensor 3, an amplifier 4, an alarm 5, a signal processing unit 6 and a display 7;

[0020] A film 12 is provided between the first roller 1 and the second roller 2, and the film 12 between the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 always maintains tension; the first roller 1 is a winding roller or an unwinding roller, and the second roller 2 is an unwinding roller or a winding roller or a pressure roller;

[0021] A photoelectric sensor 3 is provided on one side of the film 12 between the first roller 1 and the second roller 2. The photoelectric sensor 3 is connected to an amplifier 4, the amplifier 4 is connected to a signal processing unit 6, and the signal processing unit 6 is also connected to an alarm 5 and a display 7 respectively.

[0022] In the specific use of the film edge positioning device of the present application, the first roller 1 is a winding roller or an unwinding roller, and the second roller 2 is an unwinding roller or a winding roller or a pressure roller. Specifically, the following situations can be classified: the first roller 1 is a winding roller, the second roller 2 is an unwinding roller, or the first roller 1 is an unwinding roller, the second roller 2 is a winding roller, or the first roller 1 is a winding roller, the second roller 2 is a pressure roller, or the first roller 1 is an unwinding roller, the second roller 2 is a pressure roller. That is, the film between the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 is always kept in tension. Then, a photoelectric sensor 3 is set on one side of the film 12. In the present application, the photoelectric sensor 3 takes the position of the correct edge of the film 12 as the zero position, and the amplifier 4 is used to set the deviation range of the film 12 during movement to plus or minus 0.5-1 mm. When the film 12 is wound or unwound at high speed, if the edge position of the film 12 deviates from or approaches the photoelectric sensor 3 within a predetermined range, the alarm 5 will not sound. If the edge position of the film 12 deviates from or approaches the photoelectric sensor 3 beyond the predetermined range, the alarm will sound. For example, when the edge position of the film 12 deviates by more than 1 mm toward or away from the photoelectric sensor 3, the photoelectric sensor 3 transmits the detection signal to the amplifier 4, and the amplifier 4 amplifies the signal collected by the photoelectric sensor 3 and transmits it to the signal processing unit 6. The signal processing unit 6 drives the alarm 5 to sound an alarm, and the signal processing unit 6 also transmits the information collected by the photoelectric sensor 3 to the display screen 7 for display, reminding the staff to correct the film 12 to ensure the consistency of the edge position of the film 12 when the film 12 is wound and unwound, to ensure the flatness of the interface of the film 12, and thus to ensure the product quality of the film 12.

[0023] The film edge positioning device of the present invention is used to perform real-time positioning detection on the edge of the film during the film winding or unwinding process. If the film deviation is within a predetermined range, the alarm will not sound an alarm, and the film winding and unwinding will proceed normally. When the film deviation exceeds the predetermined range, the alarm will sound an alarm. The product deviation problem can be found in time according to the deviation range, thereby ensuring that the interface of the film is flat during the film winding or unwinding process, thereby ensuring the product quality of the film.

[0024] As a preferred embodiment, the first roller 1 and the second roller 2 in the present application are both arranged horizontally to facilitate the smoothness of the film 12 when it is rolled up.

[0025] The signal processing unit 6 is provided with a start switch 8, which can be used to control the on / off of the signal processing unit 6. When the start switch 8 is on, the signal processing unit 6 connects to the amplifier 4, the alarm 5, and the display 7. At this time, the photoelectric sensor 3 can normally monitor the edge of the film 12. The display 7 monitors the deviation of the film edge, thereby improving the accuracy of the film edge positioning and the quality of the film during winding and unwinding. When the edge positioning of the film 12 is no longer required, the start switch 8 is turned off, and the connection between the signal processing unit 6 and the amplifier 4 is disconnected. At this time, the photoelectric sensor 3 cannot transmit the detection signal to the signal processing unit 6, and the alarm 5 cannot be activated to sound an alarm.

[0026] As a preferred embodiment, the photoelectric sensor 3 in the present application is set on the bracket 10 through the universal joint 9, which facilitates the rotation of the photoelectric sensor 3 through the universal joint 9, so as to improve the adaptability of the photoelectric sensor 3 to film detection; the bracket 10 is set on the fixed rod 11, and the support of the bracket 10 is achieved through the fixed rod 11, thereby achieving support for the photoelectric sensor 3.

[0027] The photoelectric sensor 3 in the present application is a through-beam photoelectric sensor, which has low environmental requirements and can achieve stable target detection.

[0028] The film edge positioning device of the present invention is designed to theoretically maintain a fixed distance between the photoelectric sensor 3 and the edge of the film 12 during film winding and unwinding. This distance is measured and set to position 0 in the amplifier 4. At this point, the film deviation range is set in the amplifier 4, and the correct edge position of the film 12 is at position 0. When the film is deflected, the real-time deviation from position 0 is displayed. The start switch 8 of the signal processing unit 6 is turned on to activate the detection device. When the photoelectric sensor 3 detects that the film deviation distance exceeds the set range, the alarm 5 sounds an audible alarm, indicating abnormal film deviation. This device achieves the function of real-time film edge positioning, effectively detecting whether the film edge deviation meets the requirements, and effectively avoiding substandard quality problems caused by winding slip film.
