Abstract

The invention relates to a device and a method for the bonding of a textile web, whereby the textile web is guided over an idler drum into a bonding plant, led around a through-air drum and over a cooling drum and then led out again, whereby heated fresh air flows through the web and the through-air drum and the exhaust air is extracted from the bonding plant. According to the invention, it is intended that cooling air is directed onto the web ahead of the detachment point of the web from the through-air drum onto the web.

Claims (8)

1. A device for thermal bonding of a textile web, whereby the textile web is led over an idler drum into a bonding plant, led around a through-air drum and led out again over a cooling drum, whereby heated fresh air flows through the web and the through-air drum and exhaust air is extracted from the bonding plant, wherein cooling air is directed onto the web ahead of a detachment point of the web from the through-air drum, whereby the cooling air is directed onto the web by means of a channel and/or a nozzle and wherein the cooling air flows through the web and the through-air drum.

2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the cooling air is separated from the fresh air and hot air inside the through-air drum by means of an air system.

3. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the air system is structured as an at least partially closed redirection arranged inside the through-air drum with which the cooling air is again led off from the bonding plant.

4. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the air system comprises at least one channel or one shielding plate.

5. The device according to claim 4 , wherein the cooling air is led from the bonding plant via a channel that is arranged in an area between the idler drum and the cooling drum.

6. The device according to claim 5 , wherein the channel is arranged so that it can swivel.

7. The device according to claim 4 , wherein the shielding plate is formed as a concave or convex dished design.

8. A method for the bonding of a textile web, whereby the textile web is led over an idler drum into a bonding plant, led around a through-air drum and led out again over a cooling drum, whereby heated fresh air flows through the web and the through-air drum and exhaust air is extracted from the bonding plant, wherein the web is cooled by cooling air ahead of a detachment from the through-air drum, and wherein the cooling air that forms a closed redirection within the through-air drum is extracted from the bonding plant by an air system.
