Abstract
Abstract A method is disclosed for reducing vibrations in revolving disc cutters used for cutting a running web. The method includes the step of coating the disc cutters, at least partly, with a layer having substance components with a high internal friction. Preferably, the disc cutters are made cup-formed so that they have a convex side and a concave side, whereby the coating is applied to the concave side of the cutters. Tough plastic, preferably epoxy resin or rubber, mixed with metal powder, can be used as a coating layer.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
63 words
A method for reducing vibrations in a revolving disc cutter for use in cutting a running web, the disc cutter being cup-shaped and having a convex side and a concave side, comprising coating at least part of the concave side with a layer of material having substance components with a high internal friction formed from a tough plastic mixed with a metal powder.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
63 words
A method for reducing vibrations in a revolving disc cutter for use in cutting a running web, the disc cutter being cup-shaped and having a convex side and a concave side, comprising coating at least part of the concave side with a layer of material having substance components with a high internal friction formed from a tough plastic mixed with a metal powder.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
101 words
In a method for reducing vibrations in a disc cutter assembly formed from two relatively thin light rotating disc cutters each having a smooth peripheral cutting edge, said disc cutters being arranged adjacent to each other for cutting a running web of soft material such as paper, said method including the steps of making at least one of said disc cutters cup-shaped with a convex side and a concave side, coating said concave side of the cutter, at least partly, with a layer having substance components with a high internal friction, said coating layer including tough plastic mixed with metal powder.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
101 words
In a method for reducing vibrations in a disc cutter assembly formed from two relatively thin light rotating disc cutters each having a smooth peripheral cutting edge, said disc cutters being arranged adjacent to each other for cutting a running web of soft material such as paper, said method including the steps of making at least one of said disc cutters cup-shaped with a convex side and a concave side, coating said concave side of the cutter, at least partly, with a layer having substance components with a high internal friction, said coating layer including tough plastic mixed with metal powder.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
46 words
The method as claimed in claim 1 or 2, including forming grooves in said concave side prior to coating, and applying said coating to the grooves and the concave side to thereby obtain a better adhesion between the coating and the concave side of the cutter.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
15 words
The method according to claim 1, in which said plastic is epoxy resin or rubber.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
22 words
The method according to claim 1, said coating layer including metal powder in the range of 50 to 95 percent by weight.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
18 words
A method according to claim 1, the thickness of said coating layer being between 1 and 4 mm.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
18 words
A method according to claim 1, the thickness of said coating layer being between 2 and 3 mm.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
49 words
A disc cutter for cutting a running web, comprising a cup-formed member having a convex and a concave side, and a coating layer covering at least part of said concave side, said coating layer having a high internal friction and including a tough plastic mixed with a metal powder.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
49 words
A disc cutter for cutting a running web, comprising a cup-formed member having a convex and a concave side, and a coating layer covering at least part of said concave side, said coating layer having a high internal friction and including a tough plastic mixed with a metal powder.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
68 words
The disc cutter as claimed in claim 8, wherein said concave side is provided with grooves, said coating layer includes metal powder in the range of 50 to 95 percent with the remainder epoxy resin or rubber, and said coating layer forms a continuous coating in said grooves and therebetween on said concave side to provide for a better adhesion between said coating layer and said concave side.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
59 words
The disc cutter according to claim 8, wherein said concave side is provided with grooves for receiving part of said coating layer to provide for better adhesion between the said coating layer and said concave side, and the relation between the axial width and the outer diameter of said at least one cup-formed cutter is between 0.015 and 0.2.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
41 words
The disc cutter assembly according to claim 8, in which said cutter is provided with a central attachment opening, and the relation between the outer diameter of said cutter and the diameter of said attachment opening is between 2 and 4.
