Abstract
Improvements in the technical field of brush manufacture are provided by a dividing-up device (1), which includes a dividing-up disc (5) with at least two dividing-up indents (6) formed at its circumference. In order for it to be possible to adapt an effective indent volume of the dividing-up indents (6) as desired, the dividing-up device (1) also includes an adjusting device (8), which is designed to adjust the effective indent volume of the dividing-up indents (6) that is available for dividing up clusters (2) of bristles.
Claims16
A dividing-up device (1) for dividing up clusters (2) of bristles from a bristle supply (3), the dividing-up device (1) comprises:
- a bristle magazine (4) for receiving a bristle supply (3);
- a dividing-up disc (5) comprising dividing-up indents (6) on a circumference thereof, the dividing-up disc (5) being movable with the dividing-up indents (6) past a removal opening (7) of the bristle magazine (4) for dividing up clusters (2) of bristles from the bristle supply (3) located in the bristle magazine (4);
- and
- an adjusting device (8), which is designed to adjust an effective indent volume of the dividing-up indents (6) that is available for dividing up of the clusters (2) of bristles;
- wherein the adjusting device (8) for adjusting the effective indent volume of the dividing-up indents (6) comprises at least one adjuster that is movable relative to at least one of the dividing-up indents (6) and at least one displacement mechanism (14) which is designed to displace the at least one adjuster relative to the at least one of the dividing-up indents (6);
- and
- wherein the at least one displacement mechanism (14) comprises a spindle drive (15) with a rotatable spindle (16) and a spindle nut (17), the spindle nut (17) is connected via a lever (18) to the at least one adjuster in order to displace the at least one adjuster, by a rotation of the spindle (16) and a resultant axial movement of the spindle nut (17) with respect to the spindle (16), relative to at least one of the dividing-up indents (6).
A dividing-up device (1) for dividing up clusters (2) of bristles from a bristle supply (3), the dividing-up device (1) comprises:
- a bristle magazine (4) for receiving a bristle supply (3);
- a dividing-up disc (5) comprising dividing-up indents (6) on a circumference thereof, the dividing-up disc (5) being movable with the dividing-up indents (6) past a removal opening (7) of the bristle magazine (4) for dividing up clusters (2) of bristles from the bristle supply (3) located in the bristle magazine (4);
- and
- an adjusting device (8), which is designed to adjust an effective indent volume of the dividing-up indents (6) that is available for dividing up of the clusters (2) of bristles;
- wherein the adjuster comprises, an adjusting disc (21) which has a number of adjusting indents (22) which corresponds in at least one of a number, arrangement, geometry, or dimension to a corresponding at least one of a number, arrangement, geometry, or dimension of the dividing-up indents (6) of the dividing-up disc (5).
