[0024]
In the dimension inspection apparatus, the light irradiation means and the light receiving means are disposed so as to face each other with the small roll holding part interposed therebetween.
[0025]
Therefore, in the state where the small roll is held in the small roll holding part, the light is irradiated to the both ends of the small roll from the light irradiation means in a band shape, and the light is applied to the axis of the small roll. When the light is moved in a direction perpendicular to the small roll, the light is blocked by both ends of the small roll when passing over the small roll, so that the amount of light received by the light receiving means decreases. The decrease in the amount of received light is proportional to the amount of light from the light irradiating means blocked by the small roll, so that when the dimension in the axial direction of the small roll is increased, the light is More light is blocked by the roll, and the amount of light received by the light receiving means is reduced.
[0026]
Therefore, since the dimension calculation means can measure the dimension of the small roll in the axial direction from the decrease in the amount of received light, the dimension of the small roll in the axial direction can be inspected without contact.
[0027]
The automatic small winding device can be suitably used to process a belt-like object that may have paste protruding from the side edge, such as TA paper, into a small roll.

[0029]
Since the winding deviation inspection apparatus can inspect the degree of winding deviation in a non-contact manner, the automatic small winding apparatus smallly removes a band-like object that may have a paste protruding from a side edge, such as TA paper. It can be suitably used for processing into a winding roll.
[0030]
  The invention described in claim 6 has a small roll separating means for separating the small roll into a non-defective product and a defective product based on the determination result in the small roll inspection means.Automatic processing systemRelated.
[0031]
In the automatic small winding device, since the small roll determined to be defective by the small roll inspection means is extracted by the small roll separating means, either or both of the winding width and winding deviation are detected. Excessive defective products are not mistakenly sent to the subsequent pillow packaging process.
[0032]
  The invention described in claim 7 includes a small roll discharge means for receiving the small roll separated by the small roll separation means and transporting it to the next process.Automatic processing systemAbout.

[0036]
Therefore, the labor of the operator can be further reduced as compared with the automatic small winding device.
[0037]
  The invention according to claim 9 is a temporary packaging device in which the interior device temporarily wraps the small roll conveyed from the small roll unloading means with a packaging film, and the temporary packaging formed by the temporary packaging portion. The present invention relates to an automatic processing system having a deaeration sealing device that deaerates and seals the inside of the machine.

In the degassing and sealing device, the inside of the temporary packaging is deaerated through the unsealed portion of the gusset portion. Then, the present invention relates to an automatic processing system that seals the unsealed portion.
[0038]
In the deaeration packaging apparatus, first, a small roll is temporarily packaged with the packaging material by a temporary packaging apparatus. At this time, the temporary packaging apparatus performs temporary packaging so that only the deaeration nozzle opening is opened.
[0039]
Next, the deaeration nozzle of the deaeration sealing device is inserted into the deaeration nozzle opening, and the inside of the temporary package is deaerated. Thereby, the said small roll and the said packaging material closely_contact | adhere without a space | gap being produced.
[0040]
After deaeration, the deaeration nozzle is retracted from the deaeration nozzle opening of the temporary package to seal the deaeration nozzle opening. Thereby, the said small roll is completely packaged with the said packaging material, and pillow packaging is comprised.
[0041]
The deaeration nozzle only needs to be able to deaerate the inside of the temporary package, and therefore does not need to be inserted deeply into the temporary package. Therefore, since the degree of adhesion between the packaging material and the small roll is not lowered by sandwiching the degassing nozzle, the small roll and the packaging material can be completely adhered to each other. And so-called tight pillow packaging is possible. Moreover, when the degassing nozzle is inserted, an accident that the small roll is damaged by the degassing nozzle does not occur.
[0042]
As the interior device, in addition, a packaging material such that a center seal portion of a pillow type packaging form is formed in a direction substantially perpendicular to the axis of the small roll along the peripheral surface of the small roll.

[0043]
In the pillow wrapping apparatus, first, a small roll is surrounded by a packaging material, and center sealing is performed by a center sealing apparatus. At this time, the center seal portion is formed in a direction substantially perpendicular to the axis of the small roll along the circumferential surface of the small roll.
[0044]
Next, when end sealing is performed by the end seal device, an end seal portion is formed along the peripheral surface of the small roll in a direction parallel to the axis of the small roll.
[0045]
Accordingly, in the small roll rolled by the pillow packaging apparatus, both the center seal part and the end seal part are formed along the peripheral surface of the packaged object. When wraparound packaging, if the seal portion is wrapped with an exterior material, the seal portion can be packaged without projecting to the outside of the exterior material.
[0046]
Therefore, the small roll packaged by the pillow packaging apparatus is excellent in wraparound.
[0047]
  The invention according to claim 11It is related with the automatic processing system of the strip | belt-shaped object provided with the exterior device which wraps the small roll roll pillow-wrapped with the said interior device with the individual packaging box.
[0048]
In the automatic processing system, it is possible to automatically reduce the labor of the operator since the small rolls wrapped in the pillow are automatically packaged in an individual packaging box.
[0049]
In the exterior device, a small roll rolled in a pillow package may be accommodated in a pre-formed individual packaging box to perform the exterior, but the small roll is formed by an exterior material in a shape in which the individual packaging box is developed. If the outer packaging is assembled to form an individual packaging box while wrapping around, packaging can be performed more efficiently.
[0051]
According to the automatic coil winding device, the belt-shaped object can be coiled on the winding core while attaching a code indicating information on the band-shaped object to the end surface of the winding core.
[0052]
Various codes, letters, numbers, and symbols can be used as the code, and a substantially rectangular or fan-shaped light absorbing section that absorbs light of a specific wavelength and a substantially rectangular or fan-shaped light that reflects the light. A bar code-shaped optically readable code in which the light reflecting sections are arranged in an annular shape is particularly preferable.
[0053]
Examples of the optically readable code include an infrared readable code that is read by irradiating infrared rays.
[0054]
The optical reading type code can be formed by printing or the like, for example, but the light absorption section or the light reflection section may be formed by an adhesive tape having a surface that absorbs or reflects the light.
[0055]
As the code forming means, a non-contact type printer such as a jet printer, a laser printer, or a sublimation type thermal transfer printer is preferably used, but a contact type printer such as a thermal transfer type printer or an impact type printer can also be used.
[0056]

When the guide member 12R slides inside the guide hole opened in the central portion of the guide portion 12K9, the displacement measuring device 12K is prevented from rotating around the ball screw 12M.
[0152]
As shown in FIG. 18, it is assumed that a winding deviation 1 and a winding deviation 2 having a larger protruding amount are generated on the end face of the small winding roll r as a winding deviation. Then, at the portion where there is no winding deviation at the end face of the small roll r, the laser beam L is transmitted through the optical path L.₁Assume that the light is reflected through the image and imaged at a point a on the CCD array 12K2.
[0153]
The part of the winding deviation 1 has a shorter distance to the displacement measuring device 2 than the part of the end face where there is no winding deviation. Therefore, the laser beam L that has hit the portion of winding deviation 1 is reflected in front of the laser beam L that has hit the portion without winding deviation, and the optical path L in FIG.₂Is passed through the center of the light-receiving side lens 12K7 through the path indicated by (2) and imaged on the CCD array 12K2. Here, as shown in FIG.₂The angle θ ′ formed by the laser beam L is the reflected light L₁And an angle θ formed by the laser beam L. Therefore, the reflected light L₂Is imaged on a point b located below the point a in FIG. 18 on the CCD array 12K2.
[0154]
As described above, the winding deviation 2 has a larger amount of protrusion than the winding deviation 1, so that the distance to the displacement measuring device 12K is further shorter. Therefore, the laser beam L that has hit the winding deviation 2 is reflected in front of the laser beam L that has hit the winding deviation 1, and in FIG._ThreeIs passed through the center of the light-receiving side lens 12K7 through the path indicated by (2) and imaged on the CCD array 12K2. Here, as shown in FIG._ThreeThe angle θ ″ formed by the laser beam L is the reflected light L₂Is larger than the angle θ ′ formed by the laser beam L and the reflected light L_ThreeIs imaged at a point c positioned further below the point b on the CCD array 12K2.
[0155]
As described above, as the amount of winding deviation increases, the reflected light that has fallen off forms an image at a lower point in the CCD array 2B.
[0156]
Since the displacement measuring device 12K moves in parallel with the end surface of the small roll r, the distance between the displacement measuring device 12K and the end surface is constant. Therefore, the distance from the displacement measuring device 12K to the end face and the winding deviation can be obtained from the position of the image forming point on the CCD array 12K2 by the principle of triangulation.

1-4 Operation of the TA paper automatic machining system according to Embodiment 1
In the TA paper automatic processing system 1000 according to the first embodiment, as described above, the TA paper is unwound from the original roll R in the automatic winding device A and is wound into the small roll r. Hereinafter, the procedure will be described by taking as an example a case where TA paper is unwound from the original roll R mounted on the unwinding portion 18A and is wound on the small roll r.
[0239]
The TA paper unwound from the raw roll R mounted on the unwinding portion 18A passes through the dancer roller 22A, is attracted to the surface of the feed roller 24, and is conveyed toward the small roll turret 2.
[0240]
The TA paper arrives at the TA paper sticking / cutting device 4 after punch holes are punched in the side edges by a puncher 28 at regular intervals.
[0241]
When the front end portion of the TA paper reaches the TA paper sticking / cutting device 4, the front end portion is at the 9 o'clock position in the small roll turret 2 by the TA paper sticking / cutting device 4 as shown in FIG. 5. It is transported to the vicinity of the paper tube c mounted on the paper tube chuck 2A in the small winding position, and is adhered to the surface of the paper tube c with tape.
[0242]
When the leading end of the TA paper is attached to the paper tube c, the paper tube chuck 2A rotates in a clockwise direction when viewed from the front, and a small winding is started.
[0243]
The roller length encoder provided on the feed roller 4A counts the winding length of the TA paper wound around the small roll r, and when it is detected that the predetermined length has been reached, the paper tube chuck 2A The paper is stopped and the TA paper is cut by the guillotine cutter 4C in the TA paper sticking / cutting device 4, and the gripping roll 2D is closed, and the end portion of the TA paper generated by the cutting by the guillotine cutter 4C is gripped by the gripping roll 2D. The paper is further wound up to the position of the TA paper presence / absence detector 40.
[0244]
After the end of the small winding, the small winding turret 2 rotates 90 degrees around the center point, so that the small winding roll r is rotated 90 ° clockwise from the small winding position around the central point of the small winding turret 2. It moves to the label attaching position which is the 12 o'clock position rotated. At this time, as shown in FIG. 5, the end portion of the TA paper in the small roll r is positioned in the vicinity of the labeler 6 and is held by the grip roll 2D. In the labeler 6, a label is attached to the end portion of the TA paper.

When a label is attached to the end of the TA paper in the small roll r in the labeler 6, the small turret 2 further rotates 90 ° around the center point in the clockwise direction, and the small roll r It moves from the label sticking position to the terminal fixing position, which is the 3 o'clock position rotated 90 ° around the center point of the small turret 2.
[0246]
In the terminal fixing position, as shown in FIG. 11, the gripping rolls 2D are separated from each other to open the peripheral end of the TA paper, and the small roll pressing roller 2B is in contact with the side surface of the small roll r Then, the paper tube chuck 2A is rotated in the clockwise direction, and the terminal portion to which the TA paper label is attached is pressed against the side surface of the small roll r.
[0247]
Thereby, the termination | terminus part of TA paper is fixed to the side surface of the small roll r.
[0248]
When the end portion of the TA paper is fixed to the side surface of the small roll r, the small turret 2 is further rotated 90 ° around the center point in the clockwise direction, and the small roll r is moved from the end fixing position. The small roll turret 2 moves to the small roll removal position, which is the 6 o'clock position rotated 90 ° around the center point.
[0249]
At the small roll removing position, the small roll r is detached from the paper tube chuck 2 </ b> A by the small roll removing device 8 and transferred to the small roll inspection device 12. At the same time, the new winding core c to which the information code is attached in the cord applying device D is mounted on the paper tube chuck 2A from which the small roll r has been detached.
[0250]
When a new paper tube c is mounted by the paper tube mounting device 10, the small winding turret 2 rotates again 90 ° clockwise around the center point and reaches the small winding position.
[0251]
On the other hand, the small roll r transferred to the small roll inspection apparatus 12 is inspected for the winding width and the size of the winding deviation by the dimension inspection apparatus 12B and the winding deviation inspection apparatus 12C. Only the small roll r having both the winding width and the winding deviation within the predetermined standard is determined to be non-defective, and is distributed to the non-defective conveyor 16A by the small roll distributing device 14, and the winding width and the winding deviation are large. The small rolls r in which at least one of them is out of the reference are distributed to the NG product conveyor 16B.
[0252]
The small roll r distributed to the non-defective conveyor 16A by the small roll distribution device 14 is sent to the deaeration packaging device B.
[0253]
The small roll r is temporarily packaged by the packaging film 116 in the temporary packaging apparatus 122 of the deaeration packaging apparatus B, and the air between the packaging film 116 and the small roll r is removed in the deaeration sealing apparatus 124. Degassed and degassed.

Furthermore, in the deaeration packaging apparatus B, the small rolls r are individually individually packaged by the temporary packaging apparatus 122, and only the deaeration nozzle opening 160 is opened, and the rest are all temporarily sealed and temporarily packaged 152. And the inside of the temporary packaging body 152 is deaerated through the deaeration nozzle opening 160 in the deaeration sealing device 124, and the small roll r and the packaging film 116 forming the packaging are brought into close contact with each other. Therefore, efficient deaeration packaging is possible.
[0258]
In addition, in the deaeration sealing device 124, since the deaeration nozzle 186 is not advanced deep into the temporary package 152, the small roll r is not damaged by the deaeration nozzle 186.
[0259]
Furthermore, since the information code provided by the code applying device is of an infrared reading type, the information code can be read in a non-contact manner and the quality can be judged efficiently. In addition, since both the infrared reflection section and the infrared absorption section in the information code can be formed in a dark color such as black, the end face of the paper tube C on which the information code is printed by the code printing apparatus D is copied by an electrophotography. However, only a black ring appears, and it is almost impossible to copy or falsify the information code by inexpensive means.
[0260]
Further, since the Manchester code system is adopted for the creation and reading of the information code, there is no possibility of erroneous reading because there are no more than three consecutive infrared reflection sections and infrared absorption sections.
