In Germany August 4, 1937 6 Claims. (01. 154-55) The object of the present invention is to provide an improved or all-around extensible paper. Crepe paper (damp-crepe) is known to be a very extensible and elastic kind of paper. This is ,made on what is calledthe creping cylinder of a paper-making'machine. a moist paper web being so "crowded" or crinkled on said cylinder by means of a doctor" roll that the paper in consequence of a close formation of folds or gathers running transversely to the web or length extent thereof is extensible in the longitudinal direction. A defect of this form of creping however, consists in the fact, first, that the paper is extensible only in the longitudinal direction and, second; that the one-way crinkled formation thereof affords or opposes only a slight re-' sistance to tensional stress in the longitudinal direction or web of the paper. This second defeet prevents in particular the mechanical further treatment of such paper, as for instance its making into paper bags.
Processes generally utilisable for the production of paper which is elastic both longitudinally and transversely have not hitherto been known.
According to the present invention, paper obtains or is given the desired'all-around extensibility and elasticity by being made into small folds or fold'groupings at many points which are distributed over the surface of the paper in any desired arrangement and density and which are not parallel to each other. These small folds concentrated into "fold nests" distributed in the desired number and density over the surface can be-of any nature or form (shape) desired, but'in preferred particular will be in the form of ray lines, rings. stars, criss-crosses or other shapings disposed over the area of the web. The measure of the extensibility of the paper is determined by the number and density of these collections of folds, this extensibility. by virtue of ,a symmetrical arrangement of the fold nest-.
ings, being made uniform or equal in all directions. The fact that the paper is heaped (gathered) up at many placesinthe surface individually into short small folds which as such formly distributed. To this end, the continuous paper web is first bunched (gathered) up transversely (i. e. by a transverse action) to the running direction in corrugated (wave) form, so as to be contracted with a grooving or ribbing in said running or the longitudinal direction, and then is bunched up also in the longitudinal direction (1. eby a longitudinal contractingaction) 'between cylinders rolling over or contact with each other, thesurfaces of which .cylinders are provided with suitable complementary elevations and depressions. "I'he elevations and depressions which efiect'the bunching up in the longitudinal direction of the paper web at the same time fulfill the purpose of uniformly distributing the gatherings or contractions of the paper surface in the transverse andlongitudinal directions and to so fix or constitute said surface that on further treatment of the paper web the local heaping up of the paper surface is maintained. Owingto the factthat the aforenamed cylinders are heated and the paper web before being introduced between the pair of cylinders is moistened, the shrinking efiect is greater. and the form (texture) of the paper surface, provided with said elevations and depressions produced in the stated way becomes more resistant.
The paper material gathered (shrunk) up by or in the elevated (raised) portions is in a further working step made into small folds. This 1 is effected, according to the fineness and arrangeare not connected with each other and run or;
extend in all directions, imparts to the paper."
with great. local all-around extensibility and elasticity, a considerable resistance to deformation from tensional stresses in. any direction. In the making of this paper having anallaround extensibility. the invention contemplates and makes provision for a suiiicient paper surface at the individual places for the formation of the "fold nests, and for the sameto be uniment of the folds to be attained, between one or more pairs of cylinders having flat or suitably engraved surfaces.
In order that in this working step the elevations of the paper surface shall not be squeezed backward to the direction of running, whereby the heaping of material would be partly counteracted, it is advisable for the cylinder coming into contact with the more sharply stamped (raised) or embossed side of the paper web to be given a certain lead (advance) with respect to the opposite (counter) cylinder in the surface movement, so that the raised places of the paper web drawn therebetween will be evened before the closest engagement or full bite (press) of the cylinders.
Referring to the stated first action on the paper, the heaping up of the paper web transversely (he by transverse action) to its longitudinal direction so as to give it a longitudinal grooving takes place between a series of driven pairs of rollers, the surfaces of which are made into corrugated form in their longitudinal section. Each Pair of said rollers engages in such a manner engraved cylinders.
cally in the several views that a wave crest of the one roller comes opposite a'wave' depression of the other roller. The
depth of engagement of the first ofthese pairs is so small that the paper web introduced therebetween is brought without excessive friction into a slight corrugated form which runs in the longitudinal direction.
The corrugations so first formed in the web are deepened between the successive pairs of rollers, the engagement of which with a corre-' s'pondingly smaller wave division each time becomes deeper with a decreasing distance between the corrugations. In this way, the paper is athered into furrow form towards the centre without considerable frictional or tensional stressing. The pairs of cylinders which thus effect the contraction of this longitudinally corrugated paper web, differ by special kinematic conditions fundamentally from the normal conditions of embossing calenders. The normal arrangement or structure of embossing cylinders is such that the elevations of one cylinder fit as exactly aspossible'into the depressions of the .other or counter cylinder, taking into consideration the thickness of thematerial to be embossed, and such that the I surfaces of the two cylinders have a like mean speed of rotation, that is,that the theoretic rolling circles for the movement of the cylinder with respect to each other lie in the centre be' tween maximum and minimum diameters of the A stamping of a web-of material between such cylinders is possible only by-stretching the fibrous structure of the material, which with a comparatively large depth of the cylinder engraving must lead to the disruption of the surface of thematerial, while a conshown by Figure 4., The spacing of the corrugations and the depth of engagement of these pairs of rollers, which successively follow each other at a certain distance, are diiierent. The fiat paper web is introduced between the first pair of rollers, having the largest spacing of corru ations and the least depth'of depressions or engagement and attains therefroma sli htly waved surface somewhat as represented at a in Figure 2. The corrugations so initiated are gradually deepened between the following successive pairs of'rollers with suitably narrowing spacing and deepening engagement such that the paper web after leaving the first pair ofrollers is gathered traction of the superficial extent is hardly to be attained thereby.
In the present process, on the contrary, the
arrangement and shape of the cylinders is such that the paper web is continuously drawn and rolled pointwise into the depressions of the counter cylinder by the elevations of the other cylinder, which are preferably arranged in staggered sequence. This unrestricted drawing and rolling inwardly is attained by the surface of the one cylinder having depressions correspondingly broadened'in' cross-section being given anaccelerated movement of. rotation as compared with the surface of the counter cylinder,
A favorable rolling over condition is attained for example by an arrangement in which-the deepest parts of the circumference of the one cylinder and the highest parts of the circumform of star-shaped small'folds which impart to. the paper web, even in this raised embossed condition, great extensibility in all directions.
The annexed drawings illustrate diagrammatithe steps of the process.
up towards its centre. This progressive treatment will be understood from the sequential cross-sectional illustrations (b, e, d, and e) throughthe web of Figure 1. After reaching the desired extent of gathering in, approximately as shown by e in Figure 2, the corrugation of the paper web can be subdivided. (or increased) with out injurious tensional or frictional stresses stepwise up to any desired fineness. Thus, Figure 3 shows in cross-section through the paper web, a single stage subdivision of the form of corrugation of cross-section e of Figure 2.
The paper web longitudinally corrugated in this wayto a suitable subdivision and depth is next gathered up also in its longitudinal direction between two cylinders rolling upon each other and having their surfaces provided with special complementary elevations and depressions, which at the same tiine gather or heap up the paper in both longitudinal and transverse directions so as to be uniformly distributed about the central top points of the lumps, buttons, nibs or cones stamped in this way out of the paper web.
The elevations so made in the paper are arranged in staggered relation with respect to each other so that the lumps lie in rows which are disposed at a certain angle to the gatherings. In this way, apart from the possibility of attaining a particularly dense arrangement of the raised parts, an increased elasticity of the paper web and also a greater resistance to tensional stresses is attained. This staggered arrangement is employed in the method of carrying out the process described below.
Figures5, 6, and 7 show on an enlarged'scale a fragmentary portion of the enga in pair of cylinders AB, the same being illustrated in cross-section. and in three different positions -of engagement. 1, y, and h being elevations of the surface of the one cylinder, which elevations in n which represent the circles described by the Referring to said drawings, Figures 1, 2 and 3 show a section of a paper web in process of treatment according to the invention. Figure 1 is an elevation of the p per web and in Figure 2 I are shown five different cross-sections a, b, c, d,
e taken at equal distances. from each other, through said web to show the progressive stages of transverse gathering. This is done by means cylinders, which with a mutual toothed wheel drive coincide with the like circles of the toothed wheels.- Owing to the fact that the protuberant surface of the'cylinder B is external of its rolling circle 11, whereas the surface of the cylinder A is on the other hand'located within its rolling circle m, the revolving movement of the surface of B is considerably accelerated with respect to the surface of A, so that the deepest points (des'urfaces of which are pressions) of the counter cylinder B have the same or a greater speed than thehighest (pro- Jected) points of the primary cylinder A. The
depressions of the cylinder B must'be widened in the same ratio with this acceleration with respect to the corresponding elevations of A,
reference to the centers of said raised portion, and the same being produced by drawing the web or sheet inwardly within its mean or general plane first in the one or the other of the in the direction of rotational movement. The
ideal surface conformation of the cylinders in this sense is attainable by running .the already engraved (formed) cylinder A in the not yet engraved (completely formed) cylinder B, there- .by fixing the ratios of their diameters and rollor globular shaped elevations, as in this instance,v
then the cross-sectional (contour) lines of the depressions of the counter cylinder 13 would run somewhat in cycloidal form.
The paper surfaceprovided with tip-shaped elevations or nibs and corresponding depressions (in the opposite side) after leaving this pair of cylinders can now be treated between one or more pairs of cylinders in such manner that the paper surface heaped up at the raised places is formed into small folds, the arrangement of which is determined by the nature of the surface engraving ofthese cylinders.
In order that with this process of smoothing, the said elevations of the paper web shall not be depressed unequally backward to the direction of th web running, it is advisable for the surface of the one cylinder of the pair to be given a certain lead or advance with respect to the other of said pair. I

transverse and longitudinal directions and then in the other of said directions with numerous foldings upon itself grouped predominantly in radial relation around the center points at which the heaped up places of fold accumulation are intended to occur, the heaped up portions being pressed flatwise to the web or sheet with an overfolding at right angles thereto.
2. An all-around extensible or elastic paper,

3. An all-around extensible or elastic paper according to claim 2, wherein the heaped up fold accumulations or semi-spherical'elevations are disposed cross-wise at different anglesto the w Figure 8 illustrates the appearance after leaving the second cylinder (embossing) group. Here the paper is provided with elevations or nibs o from the tips of which proceed ray like folds p. I v
Figure "9 illustrates the paper after leaving the last, cylinder (press) group. Here. the elevations are more or less collapsed or flattened, so that in addition to the aforenamed folds p running in radiating form. ring folds r have been formed. Naturally the number, form and arrangement of the folds can be varied according to the profiling of the cylinders and according to the intended purpose or use of the paper.
