Apparatus and method for mounting and accurately positioning endlessly sewn covers
The invention relates to a device and a method for mounting and exact positioning of endlessly sewn references to existing workpiece base shapes of different outer contour, in particular steering wheels. In particular, the invention relates to an apparatus and a method for the production of steering wheels with a tubular sheath made of a variety of slightly elastic coating materials, especially leather.
The increasing demands on precision in the processing, grace of the Verbaus and efficiency in dealing with the resource leather, the currently known chemical and physical possibilities of leather production no longer meet. Due to the lack of technical possibilities of the leather industry, compromises in processing are increasingly being made in connection with decreasing efficiency.
In the following, the problems of the resource leather with regard to their use as a coating, in particular for steering wheels in motor vehicles, are briefly illuminated. The histological structure of a cattle skin prevents a uniform, reversible stretching of the leather. The average stretch behavior (longitudinal / transverse) of a dermis varies from 4 - 25%. Without taking into account parameters restricting the trajectory, such as natural features, only about half of the dermis has a consistent elasticity which also meets the requirements of certain specifications. Depending on the leather type, a proportion of 35 - 60% of the high-quality dermis must be disposed of, as it does not meet the requirements.
Beaded steering wheels usually have to be brought into shape using temperature, that is to be smoothed.
The physical requirements of certain specifications can only be achieved in the core area of the dermis.
Generally, even considering the "ideal" stretch of the dermis of 8-18%, there is no precise positioning of the netted objects to each other. In the production of interior applications, it inevitably comes to a mixing of the leather blanks from different sampling areas, where it can be assumed that the application is made from the entire dermis.
In the composite of the application or the Umlederung thus meet objects with extremely different strains each other. The accuracy of fit of the leather blanks in the sewn composite can only be a coincidence per se - the tolerances of the leather stretch can be approximated only in the creation of the contour. Folds in the lining are another effect of this situation in transitions from convex to concave areas.
Due to different production techniques and different rawhide provenances, it is not possible to create "unisono" stencils for all types of leather and suppliers.Cutting templates are created in the construction based on a "master leather skin", which tries to elaborate the different strains of the dermis for series production Differences from dermis to dermis or other influences can not be taken into account here.
Therefore, until the mass production of blanks, numerous loops have to be run to optimize the blank. Natural leather, after stretching, is unable to regain its original shape. Therefore, stressed leather comes more and more out of shape with the progress of the stress. The consequence is the progressive overstretching. With the intensity of the stress, this process progresses faster and can lead to cracks and fractures.
Due to the different elongation of leather in the longitudinal and transverse direction, it is necessary to follow a punching plan and to take the blanks directed out of the dermis (e.g., punching direction: abdominal abdomen).
The different elongation is also the reason why every object represents a great challenge to the employee of the serial production despite the best construction and contouring. The employee develops skills to deal with the different circumstances, but is only partially productive.
The inaccuracies described above result in handwork predominating in the current manufacture of steering wheel covers. On the existing steering wheel blanks the tailored and corresponding endlessly sewn hose part is manually drawn over the steering wheel contour and positioned according to the arrangement of the seams and spokes.
The positioning of the tube strip for exact looping of the handle ring profile and positioning in relation to the spoke connections on the blank requires a high degree of experience and time.
The object of the invention is to provide a method and a device to provide a steering wheel with a coating which overcomes the above-mentioned disadvantages and makes it possible to apply the coating effectively, accurately and shapely on the steering wheel main body.
The present invention takes into account the essential requirements of accurate positioning of the hose portion on the steering wheel circumference by extensive automation of the coating and alignment process.
In the following, the invention will be explained in more detail by way of an exemplary and non-exclusive exemplary embodiment.
The device according to the invention for coating an endless reference strip 1, preferably a leather strip, on a steering wheel 3 essentially comprises the following components:
In a base frame is a sliding device 2, which can be arranged either vertically or horizontally housed. At the top of this pusher 2 is a steering wheel mount on which the steering wheel blank 3 is placed centered.
At a defined distance from the head of the pusher 2 is a stationary base plate 4 with contour cutout for receiving the, arranged along the outer contour of the respective steering wheel 3, resilient guide blades. 8
On this base plate 4 and, with positioning and holding devices, preferably holding magnets 9, provided holding cylinder are arranged. On the circumference usually one to three fixed blades 6 with receiving and guiding, in particular guide slot, arranged in which each left and right shortened resilient guide plates 7 are arranged. These shortened guide plates 7 release the clamping area for clamping the endless reference strip, preferably a leather strip, on the steering wheel circumference.
Outside the resilient guide blades 8, a movable support plate 5 is arranged for receiving the clamping devices. This movable support plate 5 positions the clamping cylinder 10 located thereon exactly at the height of the largest diameter, d. H. on the theoretical center of the endless reference strip 1 to be sewn, preferably a leather strip.
When applying the endless reference strip 1, the procedure is as shown in FIGS. 2 to 5:
The steering wheel blank 3 is fixed in the receptacle 2. Next, the endlessly stitched reference strip 1 is positioned on the fixed fins 6 so as to ensure the exact position of the spoke attachment projections with respect to the steering wheel. Among other things, the butt seam which is inserted into the guide groove of the fixed lamella (s) 6 and is subsequently fixed by the holding device (s) 10 is preferably used. Preferably located on the steering wheel blank 3 exactly in this area an annular recess, which may possibly absorb a seam protrusion at the reference joint (leather shock).
The resilient guide blades 8 are now extremely loose from the endless cover strip 1, preferably leather strips, enclosed, but prevent a collapse of the only selectively held endless reference strip. 1
By this construction, it is possible to provide much lower tolerance requirements for the production of the endless reference strip (Pos. 1) (preferably leather strip), so as to meet the problems described above.
As the next production step, the steering wheel blank 3 is now pressed on the inside of the resilient guide plates 8 to the middle position, the steering wheel itself determines the contour and only the least possible elongation of the cover (leather) is made by the resilient guide plates 8. During this first cycle, there is no direct contact of the steering wheel blank 3 with the aufzusenden endless cover strip 1. When the exact takeover point is reached, the clamping cylinder 10 clamp the reference strip radially on the outer contour of the steering wheel 3, the holding device 9 is released and the second Clock is started.
At the second clock, the movable support plate 5 is moved synchronously with the clamping cylinders 10 and pushed over the entire length of the resilient guide plates 8. In this process, the endless reference strip 1 is held exactly on the circumference of the steering wheel and deducted with the steering wheel of the resilient guide plates 8. As a result, the endless reference strip is fixed to the blank and can be removed from the device for further processing.
