Abstract
It is aimed to provide a composite sheet manufacturing device and a composite sheet manufacturing method capable of maintaining high cutting performance of a cutter by suppressing the adhesion of an adhesive of an adhesive surface to the cutter. A first sheet (42) introduced to between a cutter roller (2) and an anvil roller (3) is cut into strips (42a) while these rollers (2, 3) are rotated relative to each other, adhesive surfaces (a) of the strips (42a) are adhered onto a second sheet (43) for compounding, and at least one of a cutter (12) of the cutter roller (2) and the anvil roller (3) is cooled by a refrigerant by a cooling unit (20, 21).
Claims4
A composite sheet manufacturing device for compounding strips produced from a first sheet and a second sheet, the first sheet having an adhesive surface, the device comprising:
- a cutter roller configured to rotate about a predetermined axis and including a main body and a cutter mounted thereon and shaft portions respectively extending outward from opposite end surfaces of the main body in a rotary shaft direction of the cutter roller;
- an anvil roller configured to cut the first sheet into strips by introducing the first sheet to between the cutter roller and the anvil roller by rotating relative to the cutter roller;
- and
- a cooling unit configured to cool at least one of the anvil roller and the cutter of the cutter roller by a refrigerant, the cooling unit including:
- a cutter-roller side refrigerant flowing part formed in the cutter roller and configured such that the refrigerant flows inside;
- a cutter-roller side center hole formed inside the main body of the cutter roller and extending in a rotary shaft direction of the cutter roller;
- a cutter-roller side refrigerant introducing pipe extending along an axial direction of the cutter-roller side center hole in the cutter-roller side center hole with a clearance defined between an inner peripheral surface of the cutter-roller side center hole and the cutter-roller side refrigerant introducing pipe and having a tip arranged in the cutter-roller side center hole to introduce the refrigerant into the cutter-roller side center hole;
- and
- a cutter-roller side packing configured to seal between an outer peripheral surface of the tip of the cutter-roller side refrigerant introducing pipe and the inner peripheral surface of the cutter-roller side center hole, wherein
- the cutter-roller side refrigerant flowing part includes an entrance for introducing the refrigerant into the cutter-roller side refrigerant flowing part from outside and an exit for discharging the refrigerant to the outside of the cutter-roller side refrigerant flowing part;
- and
- the entrance of the cutter-roller side refrigerant flowing part communicates with the cutter-roller side center hole at a position closer to the tip of the cutter-roller side refrigerant introducing pipe than the cutter-roller side packing and the exit of the cutter-roller side refrigerant flowing part communicates with the cutter-roller side center hole at a position closer to a base end of the cutter-roller side refrigerant introducing pipe than the cutter-roller side packing.
A composite sheet manufacturing device for compounding strips produced from a first sheet and a second sheet, the first sheet having an adhesive surface, the device comprising:
- a cutter roller configured to rotate about a predetermined axis and including a cutter;
- an anvil roller configured to cut the first sheet into strips by introducing the first sheet to between the cutter roller and the anvil roller by rotating relative to the cutter roller;
- and
- a cooling unit configured to cool at least one of the cutter of the cutter roller and the anvil roller by a refrigerant;
- a press roller configured to press the strips adhered onto the second sheet against the outer peripheral surface of the anvil roller via the second sheet;
- and
- a pressing pressure adjustment mechanism capable of adjusting a pressing pressure of the press roller against the anvil roller;
- wherein
- the pressing pressure adjustment mechanism includes:
- a bracket configured to support the press roller rotatably about a center axis of the press roller;
- a supporting portion configured to support the bracket swingably about an axis parallel to a center axis of the press roller;
- and
- a stopper capable of regulating a swinging movement of the bracket with the bracket swung to a predetermined regulating position and changing the regulating position
- a pressing member configured to press the bracket in a direction to swing the bracket toward the regulating position and to support the bracket so that a position of the press roller is changed automatically to a proper position corresponding to the thickness of the strip and the second sheet.
