[0001] In general present invention relates to producing fiber web in a fiber web machine.
Specifically, but not exclusively, the invention relates to the transferring of loads,
in particular elongate loads, such as reeling shafts, parent rolls, beams of cranes,
rolls and machine parts. More especially, but not exclusively the present invention
relates to an arrangement according to preamble part of claim 1.
[0002] As known from the prior art in fiber web producing processes typically comprise an
assembly formed by a number of apparatuses arranged consecutively in the process line.
A typical production and treatment line comprises a head box, a wire section and a
press section as well as a subsequent drying section and a reel-up. The production
and treatment line can further comprise, for example, a calender. The production and
treatment line also typically comprises at least one slitter-winder for forming customer
rolls as well as a roll packaging apparatus.
[0003] As known, fiber webs, such as paper or board webs, are manufactured in machines together
forming a fiber web manufacturing line, which may be hundreds of meters long. Modern
paper machines may produce more than 450,000 tons of paper per year. The speed of
a paper machine may exceed 2000 m/min and the width of a paper web may be more than
11 meters.
[0004] In fiber web manufacturing lines, manufacturing operates as a continuous process.
The finished fiber web being output from the machine is wound with a reel-up around
a reeling shaft, i.e., a reel spool, into a parent roll (machine roll), the diameter
of which may be more than 5 meters and which may weigh more than 160 tons. The purpose
of the winding is to transfer the fiber web from its planar manufacturing form into
a form in which it can be handled more easily. At the reel-up, which is located in
the main machine line, the continuous process of the machine is interrupted for the
first time, after which the process continues in stages. Every attempt is made to
interlink these stages as smoothly as possible so that the work already performed
would not be wasted.
[0005] The web of the parent roll generated during manufacture is full-width and even more
than 100 km long, so it must be cut into partial webs of a suitable width and length
for customers and wound around cores into "customer rolls" before dispatch from the
mill. As known, this slitting and winding of the web takes place in a separate machine
fitted to the purpose, i.e., a slitter-winder.
[0006] In the slitter-winder the parent roll is unwound in the unwinding station and the
broad web is slit with the slitting section into a number of narrower partial webs,
which are wound with the winding section around winding spools such as cores into
customer rolls. When the customer rolls are ready, the slitter-winder is stopped and
the customer rolls, or "set", are removed from the machine. After this, the process
continues with the winding of a new set. These stages are repeated periodically until
the paper on the parent roll runs out, at which point the parent roll is replaced
and the operation restarts with the winding of a new parent roll.
[0007] In a manufacturing process of a fiber web, in connection with the reel-up, the transfer
of a parent roll forwards in the process takes typically place rolling along rails
either on the basis of gravity (inclined rails) or moved by a separate transfer device.
The move forward from the reel-up may also be carried out using a lifting device,
such as a hoist. The parent roll is normally conveyed with a hoist to such a slitter-winder
that is not connected to the paper machine with transfer rails and lowered to transfer
rails. In applications where the reel-up of the fiber web machine and the slitter-winder
are connected to each other with transfer rails inline, the parent roll is transferred
along the transfer rails from the reel-up to the slitter-winder. In the simplest implementation,
particularly in the case of small parent rolls, the parent roll may also be conveyed
with a crane directly to an unwinding station. Thus in the unwinding stations of known
fiber web production lines, the parent roll is typically conveyed to such unwinding
stations that is not connected to the paper machine with transfer rails with a crane
and lowered to transfer rails. In applications where the unwinding station is connected
to the production line with transfer rails inline, the parent roll is transferred
along the transfer rails from reel-up to the unwinding station. The transfer rails
for full parent rolls consist of horizontal or inclined rails with stand-by stations.
Along transfer rails, the parent roll is transferred from one stand-by station to
another until the unwinding station is reached. With horizontal transfer rails, the
parent roll is transferred from one stand-by station to another by means of a transfer
device, and with inclined transfer rails, by means of rolling based on gravity and
stop and release mechanisms. The parent roll in some cases is also transferred from
the reel-up to the unwinding station by a transfer cart and for example in publication
EP 1266091 B1 is disclosed a transfer cart supported on a floor, used for transferring parent rolls
at the height of transfer rails for parent rolls.
[0008] An unwinding station of typically comprises an unwind stand which holds the parent
roll up during unwinding. The unwind stand comprises a first unwind stand on the driving
side and another unwind stand on the tending side. The ends of the parent roll are
on these unwind stands during unwinding. Locking arms are fastened to the unwind stand
with joints; the arms are used for locking the parent roll in place during unwinding.
A parent roll located in an unwinding station is connected to a brake generator, which
functions as a drive of the unwinder.
[0009] Generally, a reeling shaft emptied as a result of unwinding is removed from the unwinding
station either through manual lifting with a crane or automatically with a reeling
shaft handling apparatus. A reeling shaft handling apparatus comprises either vertical
lifting devices or rotatable lifting arms and return rails for empty reeling shafts,
located above the transfer rails for parent rolls, often also above the unwinding
station or above the slitter-winder. An empty or nearly empty reeling shaft is lifted
with a lifting device or with lifting arms to return rails, which normally have a
number of return positions. Typically reeling shaft storage is located above the unwinding
station. Along the return rails, the reeling shaft is transferred from one station
to another either by means of a transfer device or by means of rolling based on gravity
using stop and release mechanisms. In some cases the empty winding shaft is removed
from the return rails by lowering devices and moved to the reel-up of the machine
with a crane or by a transfer cart. The return rails may also be connected directly
to the reel-up's reeling shaft storage rails, whereby the reeling shaft may be transferred
directly from the unwinding station to the reel-up.
[0010] To ensure a smooth continuity of the process, storage spaces are needed in for full
parent rolls, partly filled parent rolls and empty reeling shafts. As known, such
storage spaces at the finishing end of the fiber web manufacturing line are located
in the main machine line between the main devices of the manufacturing process. Also
typically a rejecting location for the bottom-ends of parent rolls or partially filled
parent rolls in the pulper is needed in connection with the arrangements for handling
parent rolls and reeling shafts.
[0011] If a parent roll needs to be moved in the lateral direction from a rail line defined
by a reel-up to, e.g., another device or to e.g. a storage location, which may be
located in an aisle of the building, a transfer cart supported on a floor is typically
used for the lateral transfer, in which case the parent roll is loaded from the end
of the transfer rails or lifted with a crane.
[0012] The transfer cart for example as described in the mentioned
EP patent 1266091 integrates the functions of a steel structure sufficient for supporting the heavy
parent roll, in some cases, an apparatus section necessary for moving the parent roll,
an energy transfer/storage arrangement necessary for producing kinetic energy, actuators
necessary for receiving and handing over the parent roll and their power supply, and
safety devices to secure the automated functions. Thus it is possible with a transfer
cart to move and hand over parent rolls on the rails of the receiving station or to
be lifted with a crane. Typically such transfer carts are provided with fixed rails
and so the carts may only operate in a certain area defined by the rails. Furthermore,
the driving order of the parent rolls cannot be changed with reel carts; rather, when
changing the driving order, parent rolls must be lifted with a crane.
[0013] The reeling shaft handling solutions implemented in the prior art are complex, inflexible
and expensive. For example, it is difficult to make paths of reeling shaft and parent
roll transfer carriages, transfer rails, and transfer and conveyance routes of cranes
adjust to changing needs. It is difficult to turn winding shafts and parent rolls
with transfer carts that are supported on rails and/or wheels. The moving and turning
of winding shafts and parent rolls imposes special requirements and takes room with
transfer carts that are supported on rails and/or wheels. The handling solutions for
reeling shafts require expensive concrete and steel beam structures implemented according
to the full parent roll in order to hold up lifting devices, such as cranes. The crane
capacity may be reserved, in which case the crane may not be able to respond to transfer
needs at a short notice. In some cases the machine hall height is not enough for arranging
return rails for reeling shafts above the parent roll transferring rails or for the
use of a crane.
[0014] In connection with fiber web machines there also exists needs for transferring rolls,
such as drying rolls, suction rolls, calender rolls, rolls used in connection with
coating devices, rolls used for guiding the fiber web, rolls used for guiding fabrics
of the fiber web machine. The dimensions of these rolls are various and typically
also different from the dimensions of reeling shafts. In connection with fiber web
machines there also exist other needs for transferring other elongate loads such as
beams of cranes.
[0015] During maintenance of the fiber web machine and its devices and sections there are
also various needs for transferring different kinds of loads.
[0016] The timing of the various transfers in connection with the production with the fiber
web is complicated and demanding as there exists needs for transferring rolls simultaneously
with the need for transferring reeling shafts. There might be need for maintenance
or change of the crane beam simultaneously with the time when handling of reeling
shafts or rolls is required.
[0017] EP 2116464 A2 discloses a reel vehicle that has a chassis with wheels or an air cushion support
provided on a driving surface. On top of the chassis a slidable, rotatable and/or
extendable upper holder has been located for holding a reeling shaft, a roll and a
customer roll and the holder has variable functional elements for fixing the load.
The holder also has multiple drive units and a blocking element that blocks variable
paths in a spatial direction and that is coupled with the holder in order to block
space formed in an edge area of the chassis.
[0018] EP 2116495 A2 discloses an adapter for wheel vehicle that has a chassis comprising wheels or an
air cushion support provided on a driving surface. The chassis has an upper side-arranged
holder for a tambour. A supporting frame is arranged to be supported on the holders
for receiving differently dimensioned loads. The supporting frame is detachable connected
with the holders.
[0019] WO 2010125232 discloses a movable support apparatus, supported on a floor and movable between at
least two target stations, for receiving, moving and handing over rolls, winding shafts
and/or parent rolls intended for the handling of fiber web, the movable support apparatus
comprising support members for holding up a load being handled at both its support
ends. This prior art movable support apparatus is adapted to be supported on the floor
with at least one air cushion element and the movable support apparatus is movable
between at least two devices of a fiber web manufacturing process.
WO 2010125232 also discloses a handling system for receiving, moving and handing over rolls, winding
shafts and/or parent rolls intended for the handling of a fiber web by means of a
movable support apparatus supported on a floor and movable between at least two target

the load being handled at both its support ends and the handling system comprises
at least two movable support apparatuses that are movable between at least two devices
of a fiber web manufacturing process and that are of the type disclosed in this publication.
[0020] An object of the present invention is to create a new arrangement for transferring
loads in connection with the production of fiber web. Specially an object of the present
inventions is create a new arrangement for transferring elongate loads, such as parent
rolls and reeling shafts and rolls and beams of cranes and machine parts, in connection
with the production of fiber web. In particular an object of the present invention
is to achieve simple, flexible and cost effective arrangement for transferring loads
in connection with production of fiber webs and especially in connection with transferring
of elongate loads in connection with a production line for fiber webs.
[0021] One object of the present invention is to eliminate or at least minimize disadvantages
and problems relating to arrangements according to prior art.
[0022] One, non-obligatory object is to further improve the in
WO 2010125232 disclosed movable support apparatus.
[0023] To achieve the objects mentioned above and later the arrangement according to the
invention is mainly characterized by the features of the characterizing part of claim
1.
[0024] According to the invention the arrangement for transferring loads, in particular
elongate loads, such as parent rolls and/or reeling shafts and/or beams of cranes
and/or rolls, in connection with production of fiber web comprises at least one transfer
device, at least one pallet that is provided for transferring of machine rolls and/or
reeling shafts i.e. parent roll pallet, and at least one pallet that is provided for
transferring rolls i.e. roll pallet, specially for transfer between a fiber web machine
and a roll maintenance location.
[0025] The pallet for rolls i.e. the roll pallet is rigid such that weight of the load is
substantially evenly divided in relation to the transfer device even in situations
where dimensions of the elongate load alternate.
[0026] The roll pallet and the parent roll pallet are supported on the floor and are lifted
with the aid of the transfer device off the floor for transferring. Advantageously
the lifting is accomplished by an air cushion provided in the transfer device.
[0027] At least the parent rolls are transferred with the aid of the parent roll pallet
that comprises support structures for supporting the parent roll at its both ends
at a height such that the fiber roll surface is at a distance from the pallet surface
facing the roll. This pallet can also be used for transporting reeling shafts, reject
rolls and partially wound/unwound parent rolls.
[0028] By the arrangement according to the invention efficient parent roll and reeling shaft
and roll transfer is achieved since all steps of transfer of parent roll and reeling
shaft are accomplished by an arrangement with at least one transfer device and at
least one parent roll pallet and at least one roll pallet and in which the parent
roll pallet and the roll pallet are easily exchangeable on/from the transfer device
such that smooth change according to transferring needs of the production are accomplished.
[0029] In this description and claims by empty reeling shafts are also meant such reeling
shafts that may have layers of fiber web around, for example reject rolls and partially
unwound parent rolls
[0030] In the following the invention is discussed in more detail by reference to figures
of accompanying drawings.

Figure 5 shows schematically a layout presentation of an example of utilizing one
example of the invention.
[0031] In the following description same reference signs designate for similar components
unless otherwise mentioned and it should be understood that the examples are susceptible
of modification in order to adapt to different usages and conditions within the frames
of the invention. In some figures some reference signs indicating parts or components
respective to the same parts or components in other figures have been omitted for
the clarity of the figures.
[0032] In the example of figures 1 and 3 is shown one example of the arrangement for transferring
loads, in particular elongate loads and as shown the arrangement comprises a movable
transfer device 10 that is supported on the floor or corresponding horizontal level
of the machine hall of the fiber web production line. Advantageously the transfer
device 10 comprises at least one air cushion for moving the transfer device on the
floor in desired directions and for lifting the pallet 11 to a distance from the floor
level such that the pallet 11 is not in contact with the floor during the transferring
movements. In figures 1 and 3 the pallet 11 is a parent roll pallet provided for transferring
parent rolls 12 and has support structures 11 A, 11 B for supporting the parent roll
12 from its ends 12A, 12B. In this example the pallet 11 for parent rolls 12 is of
U-shape in side view such that the arms of the U create the support structures 11
A, 11 B for the ends 12A, 12B of the parent roll 12. The transfer device 10 is advantageously
of the type described in
WO 2010125232 but it can also be constructed as devices know from prior art and are as such known
to one skilled in the art. For example it can be constructed to be movable on wheels
and having a separate mechanism for lifting the pallet for transportation.
[0033] The parent roll pallet 11 is releasably attached to the transfer device 10 for transportation
so that when loading the parent roll pallet 11 with a parent roll 12 on the transfer
device 10 the transfer device 10 is moved under the parent roll pallet 11 and then
the at least one air cushion lifting effect is activated and thus the transfer device
10 loaded the parent roll pallet 11 with a parent roll 12 is ready for transfer movement
to the desired target destination.
[0034] At least the parent rolls 12 are transferred with the aid of the parent roll pallet
11 that comprises support structures for supporting the parent roll at its both ends
at a height such that the fiber web parent roll 12 surface is at a distance from the
parent roll pallet 11 surface facing the parent roll 12. This parent roll pallet 11
can also be used for transporting reeling shafts or reject parent rolls partially
wound/unwound parent rolls 12 with more or less fiber web still around the reeling
shaft.
[0035] In the example of figures 2A and 4 is shown one example of the arrangement for transferring
loads, in particular elongate loads and as shown the arrangement further comprises
a roll pallet 13 that is provided for transferring rolls 14, especially between a
fiber web machine and a roll maintenance or storage location. The roll pallet 13 is
releasably attached on the transfer device. The roll 14 is for example of a device
of a fiber web machine, for example a calender roll, a suction roll, a press roll,
a coater roll, a guide roll etc. This roll pallet 13 for rolls 14 is of a simple construction
for example a flat bed on which the roll 14 to be transferred is loaded so that it
is laying on the top surface of the roll pallet 13 supported on its mantle. The transfer
device 10 is the same than in figures 1 and 3 or in embodiments where the arrangement
in connection with the fiber web machine comprises more transfer devices 10 of substantially
the same type of transfer device 10 advantageously similar.
[0036] In the examples of figures 2A - 2C and 4 are shown examples of the arrangement for
transferring loads, in particular elongate loads and as shown the arrangement further
comprises a roll pallet 13 that is provided for transferring rolls 14 and other elongate
loads, especially between a fiber web machine and a roll maintenance or storage location
to be releasably attached on the transfer device. The roll 14 is of a device of a
fiber web machine, for example a calender roll, a suction roll, a press roll, a coater
roll, a guide roll etc. The roll pallet 13 is used for transferring elongate loads
excluding parent rolls. The roll pallet 13 is also usable for transferring crane beams,
machine parts etc. The transfer device 10 is the same than in figures 1 and 3 or in
embodiments where the arrangement in connection with the fiber web machine comprises
more transfer devices 10 of substantially the same type of transfer device 10 advantageously
similar.
[0037] The roll pallet 13 is releasably attached to the transfer device 10 for transportation
so that when loading the pallet 13 with a roll 14 on the transfer device 10 the transfer
device 10 is moved under the roll pallet 13 and then the at least one air cushion
lifting effect is activated and thus the transfer device 10 loaded the roll pallet
13 with a roll 14 is ready for transfer movement to the desired target destination.
[0038] The roll pallet 13 provided for transferring of rolls 14 is rigid such that weight
of the load is substantially evenly divided in relation to the transfer device 10
even in situations where dimensions of the elongate loads alternate.
[0039] The roll pallet 13 is of a simple construction for example a flat bed on which the
roll 14 to be transferred is loaded.
[0040] In the example of figure 2A is shown a roll pallet 13 transferring a roll 14 so that
the roll 14 is laying on the top surface of the roll pallet 13 supported on its mantle.
This kind of transportation is suitable for example for rolls with hard surface and
no special requirements of surface quality. This kind or transportation is also suitable
for beams of cranes and for many types of machine parts.
[0041] In the example of figure 2B is shown a roll pallet 13 transferring a roll 14 so that
the roll 14 is supported at its ends on bocks 16. The bocks 16 are as such known to
one skilled in the art and are usually of wood and often used also in storage locations
for rolls. The bocks 16 may be releasably attached on the pallet 13 or they might
be unattached.
[0042] In the example of figure 2C is shown a roll pallet 13 transferring a short roll 14
so that the roll 14 is supported at its ends on bocks 16.
[0043] Figure 2D shows schematically a side view of a bock 16 used when transferring a roll
supported from its ends in connection with examples shown in figures 2B - 2C. The
bocks 16 are as such known to one skilled in the art and are usually of wood and often
used also in storage locations for rolls. The bocks 16 may be releasably attached
on the pallet 13 or they might be unattached.
[0044] In the examples of figures 2A - 2C are shown examples in which only one load is supported
on the roll pallet 13. Depending on dimensions of loads more than one load can be
transferred simultaneously on one roll pallet 13. For example at least two short rolls
can be located successively and/or at least two rolls with small diameter juxtaposed
on the same roll pallet 13. In cases of other types of elongate loads there might
be even more possibilities of supporting more loads on the roll pallet. The load can
be dimensioned such that a part of it might exceed an edge of the pallet. There might
be cases in which loads are supported on the pallet one on the other.
[0045] The pallets 11, 13 are supported on the floor by support parts 11 C, 11 D; 13C, 13D
and lifted with the aid of the transfer device 10, advantageously by at least one
air cushion off the floor for transferring. The pallets 11, 13 have an opening or
a space for the transfer device 10 on the side facing the floor such that the transfer
device 10 is movable under the pallet 11, 13 while the pallet 11, 13 is supported
on the floor by the support parts 11 C, 11 D; 13C, 13D.
[0046] In figure 5 is shown schematically a layout presentation of an example of utilizing
one example of the invention. In this example the transferring arrangement is utilized
in connection with finishing end of a fiber web machine. In this example the arrangement
is provided for transfers in connection with a reel-up 21, an unwinder 22 of a slitter-winder
and a roll storage area 20 and in connection with further devices not shown but are
apparent to one skilled in the art. In connection with the reel-up 21 a finished parent
roll 12 is loaded on a transferring device 10 on a parent roll pallet 12 and is ready
or transfer to the desired location for example to the unwinder 22 of the slitter-winder
or to the parent roll storage area 24. In connection with the roll storage area 20
a transfer device 10 with a roll pallet 13 is ready for taking over a roll or other
load transfer in a waiting position. One pallet 11; 13 is also shown in a storage
location. As shown by arrows X, Z the transfer device 10 is movable on the floor level
in desired directions, in X- and Z directions and in all directions in between and
it is also usable for turning movements.
[0047] The arrangement for transferring elongate loads in connection with production of
fiber webs comprises a transfer device 10 that is according to the need of production
provided for transfer either with a parent roll pallet or a roll pallet. The arrangement
comprises at least one transfer device 10 and at least one parent roll pallet 11 and
at least one roll pallet 13 but according to the needs of production more transfer
devices and more pallets can be provided.
[0048] The transfer device 10 may be manually driven and/or automatic. The transfer device
10 may be switched to a manual drive mode or an automatic drive mode. An apparatus
section necessary for the transfer device 10 may be arranged in the transfer device,
such as a drive and wheels, en energy transfer arrangement necessary for producing
kinetic energy and/or an energy storage arrangement, such as compressed-air hoses,
cables, etc. or batteries.
[0049] In this description, 'floor' refers to such an even support plane on which the movable
support apparatus may be moved by means of air cushion technology, such as a machine
hall floor, the floors and support planes in the aisles of the building, and the surface
of the ground outside the building. The transfer device 10 may be moved over minor
unevenness on the support plane.
[0050] The target station of the transferring arrangement may be a device of the fiber web
manufacturing process e.g. a reel-up or an unwinder, a storage area, a storage rail,
a transfer rail, a reject location, a location related to roll maintenance, such as
a roll grindery. The target stations may be within the area of one or more machine
halls and/or within the area of one or more fiber web manufacturing processes and/or
within the area of one or more fiber web manufacturing lines.
[0051] Above some preferred embodiments and examples of the invention have been described
but many modifications are possible to those presented and a person skilled in the
art will appreciate that any embodiment of an example of the invention may be applied
in the same aspect and other aspects alone or in combination with other embodiments.
