Abstract

Die Stauchfalzmaschine ist mit einer Vorrichtung versehen, mittels welcher die Falzwalzen (W1 bis W5) in Abhängigkeit von der gemessenen oder rechnerisch ermittelten Dicke eines den Falzspalt (F1 bis F4) durchlaufenden Papierblattes oder Stapels selbsttätig auf unterschiedliche Falzspaltweiten eingestellt werden können. Die zu verstellenden Falzwalzen sind jeweils an paarweise koaxial gelagerten Schwenkhebeln (22) gelagert, welche unter dem Einfluß von elektrisch steuerbaren Stellgliedern (S1 bis S5) gegen permanente Rückstellkräfte (Feder 26) schwenkbar sind. Die Ansteuerung der Stellglieder erfolgt durch einen elektronischen Prozeßrechner, der die jeweils einzustellenden Falzspaltweiten nach einem vorgegebenen Arbeitsprogramm aus gemessenen und/oder manuell eingegebenen Papierdicken oder Stapeldicken und/oder Falzarten errechnet. Die Stellglieder (S1 bis S5) bestehen jeweils aus mehreren kaskadenartig reihenweise angeordneten pneumatischen Arbeitszylindern, deren Arbeitshübe sich gegenseitig addieren. Das Einstellen der Falzwalzen kann somit sehr schnell und jeweils auch temporär für eine nur kurze Zeitdauer erfolgen.

Figure 00000001
The upsetting folding machine is provided with a device by means of which the folding rollers ( W1 to W5 ) can be automatically adjusted to different folding gap widths depending on the measured or calculated thickness of a paper sheet or stack passing through the folding gap ( F1 to F4 ). The folding rollers to be adjusted are each mounted on paired coaxial pivoted levers (22) which can be pivoted against permanent restoring forces (spring 26) under the influence of electrically controllable actuators ( S1 to S5 ). The actuators are controlled by an electronic process computer which calculates the fold gap widths to be set according to a predetermined work program from measured and / or manually entered paper thicknesses or stack thicknesses and / or fold types. The actuators (S1 to S5 ) each consist of several cascade-like pneumatic working cylinders, the working strokes of which add together. The folding rollers can thus be set very quickly and temporarily for a short period of time.
