Abstract
Abstract A running web cutting device in which a vertically movable cutter is driven by a crank mechanism. A reciprocating stand holding an upper cutting edge and lower cutting edge is provided in such a manner to be moved in the direction of advancement of a web by a reciprocating guide. The upper and lower cutting edges are driven through the same crank shaft coupled to a cutter driving motor. A value J (J=J Wo/To where J is the conversion inertial moment of a driving motor including a load, Wo is the rated speed thereof, and To is the rated torque thereof) of said cutter driving motor is represented by J C while a value J of a web feeding motor driving a web feeding drum is represented by J F . The cutter driving motor and the web feeding motor are chosen so that J C smaller than J F . Pulse generators are coupled to the web feeding motor and the cutter driving motor, respectively, and a pulse thinning-out circuit for controlling a movement speed, in the direction of advancement of said web, of said cutter is provided in a control circuit of the cutter driving motor.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
163 words
In a running web cutting machine in which a vertically movable cutter is driven by a crank mechanism the improvement comprising; a reciprocating stand holding an upper cutting edge and a lower cutting edge, said stand disposed for movement in the direction of advancement of a web along a guide, a cutter driver motor, said upper and lower cutting edges being driven by drive means coupled to a single crank shaft coupled to said cutter driving motor, wherein a value J=J Wo/To, where J is the conversion inertial moment of a driving motor including a load, Wo is the rated speed thereof, and To is the rated torque thereof of said cutter driving motor is selected to be J C , and a value J of a web feeding motor driving a web feeding drum is represented by J F , then said cutter driving motor and said web feeding motor are so set that J C is smaller than J F .
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
163 words
In a running web cutting machine in which a vertically movable cutter is driven by a crank mechanism the improvement comprising; a reciprocating stand holding an upper cutting edge and a lower cutting edge, said stand disposed for movement in the direction of advancement of a web along a guide, a cutter driver motor, said upper and lower cutting edges being driven by drive means coupled to a single crank shaft coupled to said cutter driving motor, wherein a value J=J Wo/To, where J is the conversion inertial moment of a driving motor including a load, Wo is the rated speed thereof, and To is the rated torque thereof of said cutter driving motor is selected to be J C , and a value J of a web feeding motor driving a web feeding drum is represented by J F , then said cutter driving motor and said web feeding motor are so set that J C is smaller than J F .
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
50 words
A machine as claimed in claim 1 further comprising a first pulse generator coupled to said web feeding motor, a second pulse generator coupled to said cutter driving motor, and a pulse thinning-out circuit for controlling a movement speed of said cutter in the direction of advancement of said web.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
23 words
The machine as claimed in claim 2 wherein said thinning out circuit is disposed in a control circuit for said cutting driving motor.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
71 words
A machine as claimed in claim 1 further including, a main-feeding drum and a sub-feeding drum provided so that two webs laid one on another can be cut simultaneously, and wherein a value J f of a motor driving said main-feeding drum, a value J S of a motor driving said sub-feeding drum, and the value J C of said cutter driving motor are so set as that: J.sub.F >J.sub.S >J.sub.C.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
55 words
A machine as claimed in claim 4, further comprising digital control circuit means for controlling a feeding length of said sub-feeding drum to be shorter by a predetermined value than a feeding length of said main-feeding drum, and when said two webs are cut, the speeds of said two webs are equal to each other.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
84 words
A machine as claimed in claim 1, further comprising catch conveyer means provided behind said cutter, said catch conveyer means for conveying pieces of cut webs, the speed of said catch conveyer means being set to a value higher than the speed of said web when the speed of said web is in a low speed range and to a value higher by a predetermined ratio than the speed of said web when the speed of said web has a predetermined value or higher.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
19 words
A machine as claimed in claim 6 further comprising means to adjust the speed of said catch conveyer means.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
57 words
The machine as claimed in claim 1 wherein said drive means comprises a first crank arm coupled to said crank shaft, a first connecting rod coupling said first crank arm to said reciprocating stand, a second crank arm coupled to said crank shaft and second connecting rod coupling said second crank arm to said upper cutting edge.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
18 words
The machine as claimed in claim 1 wherein said lower cutting edge is fixed to said reciprocating stand.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
26 words
The machine as claimed in claim 1 further comprising a cutter motor position detecting pulse generator and a regulator receiving the output of said pulse generator.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
20 words
The machine as claimed in claim 10 further comprising a tachometer interposed between said cutter motor and said pulse generator.
