A system for rapidly receiving and storing a quantity of loose copy, for example newspapers, from a high speed printing press and dispensing them to the point-of-use without having to undergo the traditional operation of bundling the newspapers. More particularly, the present invention relates to a newspaper delivery system comprising a conveyor system for receiving a continuous stream of loose, unbound, newspapers directly from a high speed printing operation, an over-the-road vehicle having a cargo area equipped with a loose copy storage unit for receiving the loose newspapers supplied by the conveyor system and storing the newspapers during transport; and mechanism for dispensing a selected quantity of newspapers once the truck arrives at a delivery destination.

Description

The loading and unloading device of unit product
The present invention relates to be used for receive, store and provide the loose decal of printing material, for example a kind of method and apparatus of newspaper.Particularly, the present invention relates to a kind of method and apparatus that the high speed newspaper flows and provides by required quantity respectively that is used for receiving and storing.
Through three phases, these stages are commonly referred to as printing to newspaper before sending to the customer, mailing and circulation stage.At printing stage, newspaper cuts with very high speed printing, is folded into the paper spare of finishing.Usually, paper spare forms with partly overlapping high velocity stream form the latter stage at printing stage.
At present, in the mailing chamber stage, newspaper is divided into heap and stops up, and goes so that be distributed to each place.Dividing heap and tying up is a very time-consuming process, use very complicated equipment.These bundled newspapers can pile fixed qty or predetermined quantity, and fortune is to the final assignment point of an appointment.It make the size of bundle the operation and the circulation stage of piling up and tying up complicated by the requirement bundling of subscribing, because need be followed the trail of respectively to each bundle.
The bundle of finishing is transplanted on the circulation stage from the device of mailing chamber.Usually, bundled newspaper directly is sent on the truck, that is, and and with the storage goods space of manually removing and be loaded in truck from conveyer.The manually load process is slow and tediously long, because its labour intensity is very big, has increased the operating charges in circulation stage greatly.
Make circulation stage automation equipment for solving this industrial problem, having developed.This device comprises load wagon and self-moving vehicle loaders, and as US Patent 5,181, disclosed system in 820 and 5,437,537 is used for receiving from the mailing chamber heap bundle and bundle is put on the dolly, and then with the dress loan space of manually dolly being shifted onto cart.The size design of dolly becomes to use the shape in storage goods space most economically.When truck arrives the destination, again dolly is released and unloading from storage goods space.
Although these automatic systems help to use better storage goods space and reduce manual operations, these systems have still comprised manually load and the unloading on the storage goods space, and for the accumulation in mailing chamber stage with tie up operation and do not cut any ice.And newspaper still is piled up in the retailer, on the final point of departure of the mailbox of mail carrier and appointment.This means that perhaps the newspaper of various predetermined quantities bundle still needs to prepare, follow the trail of respectively by the whole circulation stage, be transported to again on the final point of departure that perhaps, will be bundled on the point of departure separately, required newspaper amount is sent in difference then.Clearly, in the prior art, the newspaper system comprises many S. A.s and manual stage, and they need expensive equipment, work and time receive from printing office to the newspaper of final point of departure.
Because the continual work of printer is vital,, promptly between printing office and mailing chamber, provide a kind of shock attenuation device for the two so supplementary equipment therefore will be arranged.For example, if in heaps and device bundling can not have been worked, but as long as newspaper stream can turn to shock attenuation device, printer still can work on.In the past, shock attenuation device comprised a helix slope with vertical axis.Follow-up newspaper all is directed on the slope.Here, problem is that newspaper will slide and overturn, thereby causes the mottled and paper of ink marks folding.
Another kind of buffer system comprises a drum.Newspaper is being rolled onto under the help of a belt on the drum.Also there are many defectives and limitation in this system, because it only provides a minimum storage space, and needs sizable workshop area to operate.US Patent 5,018,618 have described a kind of system, the apron space much less that its required workshop area is more required than drum.This system comprises the rack unit of a vertical uplift and goes up and contact with the newspaper outer across the newspaper stream that is transmitted.This bundle rack device vertically rises paper and is supporting and preserving them.This device needs a device vertically to divide heap continuous newspaper along it in the upstream, thereby piles and piles of newspaper can be placed on respectively on each layer shelf.
Cigarette industry has used a kind of horizontal transmitter of vertically piling temporarily to store cigarette, US Patent 4,201,507 describe this system designs to be used for transmitting and temporarily depositing rod shaped article (cigarette and filter tip thereof), the free-pouring cigarette of this system's control multilayer, these cigarette are converged at front end by a closing appliance, and converge at top and bottom by forwarder.The front end closing appliance is carefully designed so that pass through the zigzag transmission approach of unit.When cigarette was not separated out in the unit, the motion of cigarette was controlled by the motion of end closing appliance.
When the end closing appliance moved forward in storage unit, it createed the cavity of an expansion of being surrounded by the up and down forwarder and the closing appliance back side.The free-pouring cigarette stream of layering is admitted to this cumulative cavity continuously, fills up storage facility.
In case cavity is filled, the input port of storage facility promptly is closed, thereby blocks the afterbody of the free-pouring cigarette in the storage unit.In order to keep continuous, complete cigarette to flow, this system equipment an elevator vertical cavity is provided, thereby can form the complete channels of a cigarette.
The kinematic similarity of the motion of free-pouring cigarette and the water that is inserted into by a pipe in this system.Between the cigarette or the relative position on cigarette and forwarder surface fixing.Therefore, cigarette free motion on stop-and-go approach.Because this system only controls the motion of closing appliance, so it can not individually distribute cigarette, can not keep the relative position of cigarette.
Therefore, one aspect of the present invention just provides a kind of like this automated installation.This device can receive newspaper with the speed that equals or exceeds industrial printing standard, with fixing relation storage newspaper, thereby reduces the stained and folding damage that waits newspaper of paper such as ink marks, and distributes newspaper with the batch of dispersion or continuous logistics on request.
Another aspect of the present invention provide a kind of from printer to terminal distribution point, need not tie up newspaper and can finish reception, store and the device of the task of transmission.
Another aspect of the present invention provide a kind of can be from printer automatic reception newspaper, store newspaper with fixed relationship, and distribute the device of newspaper at far-end according to various quantity automatically.
Another aspect of the present invention provides a kind of can the reception, preserves and send to again the device of a continuous newspaper diffluence.
A further aspect of the invention provides a kind of automation, and the newspaper storage unit that capacity per unit area is big so that preserve each newspaper securely, and can distribute newspaper selectively.
In addition, another aspect of the present invention provides a series ofly to be arranged a kind of comprising compactly, vertical stacking, be used for receiving, to preserve, the forwarder that distributes newspaper is at the interior automatic device for continuously conveying of a cover.
The present invention relates to a kind of a large amount of loose printed matter (as newspaper) that ships from printer that is used for receiving and storing, and they are assigned to the device that uses point, and in this process, needn't use traditional operation of tying up newspaper.In particular, the present invention relates to a kind of newspaper feedway, it comprises that one can directly receive loose from high speed printer, the conveyor assembly of the continuous newspaper stream of unbundling; A long-distance transport car has a cargoarea on the car, equipping to be used for receiving conveyor assembly for the loose newspaper that comes on this cargoarea, and store the loose decal storage unit of newspaper in transportation; And after vehicle arrives the destination, in order to send the device of the newspaper of selecting quantity.
Should be noted that newspaper one speech only is intended for an example of loose decal.Will be appreciated that because newspaper is a example in the loose copy, the present invention is not confined to newspaper, also can expand to various loose printed matters, magazine for example, the thing of leaflet and so on.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, carry the conveyer of loose decal to comprise a pair of belt conveyer from printer to storage unit, and each forwarder have one row partition distance running roller, and many with parallel mode the arranged apart and elastic belt of solderless wrapped connection on running roller.Space size in the middle of a pair of forwarder guarantees and allows partly overlapping newspaper stream therefrom to pass through.A pair of belt conveyer is designed to support and flows to the overlapping continuous newspaper of either direction translator unit.
When forwarder was in a direction of tilt, the upper surface of the transportation section, below of top belt conveyer and newspaper stream contacted, and letterweight downwards on the transportation section, top of belt conveyer.This to these two sections transportation sections of forwarder to same direction, with identical speed synchronization operation.
A series of double-type belt conveyer can be used to transmit newspaper stream from high-speed press to transport trolley.For example, transport trolley can be parked on the loading platform.Equipped the storage unit of the loose decal of a cover on the transport trolley.In more detail, the substantially horizontal belt conveyer that comprises some vertically pilings in the storage unit is carried continuous or discrete newspaper stream.End in the belt conveyor of each bar vertically piling all is provided with a steering handwheel or forwarder.These steering hardwares according to the placement of steering handwheel and/or in pairs the sense of motion of belt conveyer control newspaper stream, pass upward belt conveyer or following belt conveyer.
The arrangement mode of the steering handwheel of stacked forwarder and collaborative work be make one in folded all forwarders and each adjacent each folded forwarder between a continuous transmission approach is arranged.All commutation forwarders and each the support/restriction forwarder in the storage unit all are synchronous, and can be driven by a single power supply.
Newspaper stream is sent to input position that determines in advance in the storage unit.In general, this input position is positioned at the top or the bottom conveyor of a terminal forwarder heap of storage unit.Newspaper can be in this entrance point in the mode of spiraling by whole storage unit, arrive the end of last forwarder until the front end of newspaper stream, that is to say that transfer cart is full.Transfer cart starts then, begins to transmit, and loose newspaper is then stored two transportation sections up and down of forwarder and clamped tightly.In case transfer cart arrives the destination, the storage unit on the car just begins to distribute newspaper by selected amount one by one.
Also can select newspaper directly packed into and be placed in the transmission box at the conveyer import/export place of piling up.A series of stacked forwarders that transmitted the box internal equipment, its similar are in loose decal storage unit, are used for receiving on request and distributing newspaper.
How more at large describe newspaper below transmits in storage unit.Should be clear and definite, storage unit can commutate or be designed to various arrangement modes.Be in operation, newspaper stream is admitted on the bearing surface of first forwarder of a series of stacked forwarders entrance, generally is the last angle that is positioned at a certain end in unit.Newspaper stream transmits along first forwarder.Terminal when arriving, newspaper stream is redirect on the belt conveyer that abuts against first forwarder below by a steering handwheel.Newspaper still keeps contacting with bearing surface, and present bearing surface has been the bottom surface of first forwarder of contacting with it, and the forwarder that descended, and moves to Way in.
This process of spiraling will continue, and arrive the bottom of the first folded forwarder until newspaper stream forward position.At this moment, newspaper stream is admitted to a forwarder that joins, and passes bottom arrival end to the vertical forwarder of second heap by its inclination or alternate manner.The vertical forwarder of second heap nestles up the first heap forwarder.Newspaper stream upwards transmits in the mode of spiraling again subsequently, until arriving the top forwarder.At this moment, newspaper stream tilts again or otherwise passes to the 3rd heap forwarder, and passes through in the mode of spiraling, and arrives bottom conveyor.This mode that once and then transmits downwards again that upwards transmits will continue constantly, arrive the end (top) the portion forwarder of last vertical stacks up to the forward position of newspaper stream.At this moment, the belt conveyer of the vertically piling that each is serial is all filled, though during whole storage space by loose decal storage unit of newspaper stream and discontinuous also be like this.
This loose decal storage unit can be placed between printer and the loading depot, or far place, so that provide easy to reach automatic buffer capacity.Particularly, when not having waggon, storage unit can be used for accepting or store newspaper stream, or is used for preserving part newspaper (as enlarging version Sunday), so that can transmit easily in the future.These storage units can use at any point in circulation stage, here, it can keep newspapers of great use stream a part also/or keep a newspaper amount of being convenient to obtain.

Fig. 1 represents the device 10 according to principle design of the present invention, wherein, a loose decal continuously or noncontinuum flow, as newspaper N, enter this device from the conveyer H that hangs of printer., transmitter system 2 collaborative works, the newspaper N that the formation newspaper that reception is transmitted from suspension bracket forwarder H flows.Newspaper S is overlapped in flat substantially mode, newspaper N folding forward and its side be in line substantially.Relative velocity between suspension bracket forwarder and the transmitter system 2 is adjustable, thereby can regulate according to the thickness of newspaper from the lap of newspaper N.Transfer system 2 is the input of newspaper stream S biography to loose decal storage unit 14.Loose decal storage unit receives stream S, and makes newspaper keep fixing basically relation in stream.The storage unit of above-mentioned loose decal can be arranged on the cargo space of long-distance transport car 16.Transport trolley 16 can be transported to remote destination D with the storage unit 14 of loose decal, and a selected amount of newspaper N is sent away with storage unit 14.
Transmission system 2 can be made up of mono-4 and/or double-type annular conveyor 6.Best, transmitter system comprises at least one belt conveyer that has a series of idle pulleys 8, wherein has at least one to be drive wheel, also has many elastic belts on the running roller of a series of partition distance arrangement in parallels.Forwarder should comprise two forwarders that separate placement that are arranged on newspaper stream S both sides in pairs.This is used for supporting to forwarder, restriction and to the overlapping newspaper stream S of any direction translator unit.Flow each newspaper of S at this newspaper that preferably can fixedly pass through tightly to the size in the space between the forwarder 12.
Loose decal storage unit 14 comprises the vertical overlapping forwarder of a pile at least, and it has a series of close proximity, vertically the annular conveyor 22 of alignment.These annular conveyors are placed in the framework 24, form a spiral and transmit approach, are shown in Fig. 2.The structure of framework 24 is single-pieces, thereby can support these forwarders when full load, if storage unit is designed to be used for being placed in the car, it can also bear the mal-condition in the transmission.The best size of distance between forwarder contacts with the upper and lower surface of each newspaper N respectively with the last transportation section 24 with vertical adjacent following forwarder 22b, the transportation section, the end 32 that guarantees top forwarder 22a as shown in Figure 7.This has guaranteed that not only each newspaper tightly is clamped in therebetween, and makes more transmission transportation section, promptly more transmits the space, can be placed in the one unit district.This interval is a basically identical in the approach of the whole forwarder that spirals.
As shown in Figure 2, loose decal storage unit 14 can be provided with Caster or wheel 36 to make things convenient for the motion in vehicles passing in and out storage goods space, unit 40.Track 38 is optionally equipped in storage goods space 40, is used for receiving storage unit 14 caster wheeles or wheel 36, and the guiding storage unit enters stock space 40.Can adopt a locking mechanical device on the track, be used at 40 places, stock space locking storage unit 14.
Forwarder 22 can be a band, belt or other suitable forwarder.Generally, forwarder is a belt conveyer, and as shown in Figure 6, it comprises a series of parallel elastic belts 26 that separate, and these belts are installed on a series of running rollers 28, wherein have at least one to be drive wheel 30.Belt conveyer is a kind of forwarder than light and compact conformation, and this forwarder can be contained in the unit area more forwarders, but only needs structure seldom to support.Parallel elastic belt 26 and running roller 28,30 should be enough to support newspaper stream S.Single forwarder is general basic to be extended on the total length of structural framing, and each end of running roller 28 and/or 30 restriction forwarders is in line on the same vertical surface near frame end substantially.
Should be appreciated that running roller can be made vertical and/or horizontal adjustment in framework.This adjusting can mechanically link together, but the adjusting of such one group of running roller collective, to adapt to the different-thickness of newspaper stream S.The running roller of the forwarder that vertical direction is adjacent can be aimed in vertical direction each other, perhaps according to condition of service two rollers is staggered mutually.
Newspaper stream S is sent to the end of belt conveyer, and is led around end running roller 61 by commutator, shown in Fig. 8-10 and 18.Commutator is used to make product stream to do 180 ° commutation, in the layout of forwarder end, makes product stream turn to below down, top according to the different service directions of forwarder and commutator.Commutator is passive, as mechanical commutation dish 42 (see figure 8)s, or actv., as commutation forwarder 62 and 132 (seeing Fig. 9,10,18), also can use two types commutator simultaneously.
Mechanical commutator comprises a curvilinear surface 44, and this surface is positioned to be left but stride the end of standing on forwarder substantially, the basic in-line of the axle of the summit 46 of curvilinear surface and conveyor wheel, as shown in Figure 8.Striding on the upright position, the size of curvilinear surface should make the lower surface 48 of forwarder just in time be higher than, and the upper surface 50 of forwarder just in time is lower than the end 52 and 54 of curvilinear surface 44, and tangent with these two ends respectively.One group of commutator 56 in frame end is provided with one every the end of a forwarder, for example on the the 1st, the 3 and the 5th forwarder.At the other end, one group of commutator 58 is arranged on the offset ends of other forwarder, for example on the the 2nd, the 4 and the 6th forwarder.Therefore, each forwarder have only one its be centered close near this forwarder end commutator.Be set to such form with the stacked forwarder 22 of commutator dish 42 combinations, just in storage unit, form the forwarder approach that spirals.
In Fig. 9 and 10, the storage unit of above-mentioned loose decal has been equipped alternatively and can have been turned to forwarder 62.This forwarder 62 that turns to is arranged near stacked forwarder 22 ends, forms the forwarder approach that spirals continuously that is similar to above-mentioned commutation board 42.Except that stacked conveyor elements, turn to forwarder to comprise a collar-shaped belt 64 and a spring-loaded running roller 66.The axis in-line of the forwarder running roller of spring-loaded running roller 66 and corresponding accumulation, and fold respectively commutating of forwarder just above a lamination and hold 60 end running roller 61.Be positioned near the belt of the commutation forwarder 62 the commutation end 60 of a specific stacked forwarder 22, end running roller 61 round forwarder, stacked deflector 22 and above the spring-loaded running roller 66 and below, surround the parallel structure of partition distance, see Figure 11.Because the end running roller 61 of all stacked vertical forwarders 22 is aimed in vertical direction basically, so around the position of the belt 64 of the end running roller of adjacent forwarder, to the transmission approach end pulling belt 64 of the end runner 61 of the commutation end 60 of stacked forwarder.
As shown in figure 10, when newspaper stream S by around the running roller of end the time, spring-loaded running roller 66 is inside, commutation end 60 displacements towards stacked forwarder 22 make belt 64 remove from the end running roller, adapt to the newspaper stream S that passes through.The tension force that causes owing to spring-loaded running roller 66 tightening belts, the commutation end of walking around forwarder when the low stream of newspaper force belt that newspaper is flowed S and press to firmly on the surface of stacked forwarder 22 when end face moves to the bottom surface.
Figure 11 has shown that commutation conveyor belt 64 is around the stacked conveyor belt 26 of a series of ends running roller 61 and the another kind of position of spring-loaded running roller 66.Commutation conveyor belt 64 is along the width partition distance of forwarder approach, so that at newspaper stream S support and guidance newspaper stream S suitably during around the end runner 61 of stacked forwarder.
Figure 18 represents another kind of commutation forwarder 132.This forwarder is alternately to be arranged near the commutation end 60 of stacked forwarder with above-mentioned similar mode.This commutation forwarder has at least one take-up roll 134, is used for tensioning commutation belt conveyor or belt 136.Usually, these commutation forwarders comprise a foundation, and this expires the belt on a pair of running roller 138 (a and b) of being looped around of width, this root belt is positioned at the upper and lower of commutation running roller 61, and be in line around axis, and just in time exceed the drive wheel 140 of end running roller 61 of each commutation end 60 of stacked forwarder 22 with corresponding stacked forwarder.The forwarder end running roller 61 of the contiguous commutation end of vertical direction can be to bias internal, to adapt to the idle pulley 138 (a and b) of contiguous commutation forwarder 132.
Midway location at each idle pulley 138 (a and b) and drive wheel 140 has a take-up roll 134, the outside of its contact zones.Each take-up pulley 134 all is contained on the spring-loaded swivel arm 142.When take-up roll 134 leaves end running roller 61, when removing to guide the newspaper stream S that passes through, it makes band or belt 136 keep tension.
One population and outlet 74 are arranged in each vertical column 72 of the stacked forwarder 22 of loose decal storage unit 14, see Fig. 2.Alternatively, these hurdles also can couple together and form a continuous storage unit, a shared entrance and exit 74.Because this device can be reverse, so inlet also can be used as outlet, and a given unit only need have one and both can be used as the place that inlet also can be used as outlet.But preferably one unit has a plurality of gangways.
Shown in Fig. 3 and 4, each vertical column 72 of the loose decal storage unit of multicolumn can be got in touch by a cross-over connection forwarder 26 and adjacent hurdle, and this cross-over connection forwarder is positioned at the top or the bottom of vertical column 72 1 ends.This cross-over connection forwarder 76 can be the forwarder that is suitable for above-mentioned purpose of any kind, comprises the flexible conveyor of a side direction.
Usually, cross-over connection forwarder 76 is the forwarder at a diagonal angle, and one end 78 is aimed at the mouth of vertical column 72, and the input end on a hurdle 72 of the other end 80 and vicinity is aimed at.As shown in Figure 4, the mouth on these contiguous hurdles 72 and input end stacked forwarder or top or bottom.So the paper stream of delivering newspaper is uploaded at vertical reversing sense in the adjacent hurdle 72 that links.For example, a forwarder upwards transmits newspaper stream, and adjacent forwarder transmits newspaper stream downwards.
Although the quantity on the adjacent hurdle of bonded assembly is in fact without limits by this way,, the quantity on the continuous bonded assembly hurdle of given storage unit will be decided by wide and whole available spaces, hurdle, for example the size in stock space on the vehicle.Like this, if the entrance and exit 74 on first hurdle 72 of the storage unit of the loose decal of a multicolumn is positioned at the top, cross-over connection forwarder 76 is located in the exit position of the bottom on odd number hurdle so, and the forwarder with this inlet is counted the 1st hurdle.Equally, since the 1st hurdle number, cross-over connection forwarder 76 just is located at the exit end at the top on even number hurdle.
These cross-over connection forwarders 76 form a continuous approach for newspaper stream S, after making it enter the arrival end on the 1st hurdle, advance to downwards along the hurdle on the cross-over connection forwarder 76 and arrive the arrival end on the 2nd hurdle, continue upwards to arrive the cross-over connection forwarder 76 of the input end that imports the 3rd hurdle again.This hurdle that links to each other along stacked forwarder arrives the end of the last forwarder on last hurdle, i.e. the end of approach upwards, downwards.The top that this end is the hurdle is the bottom still, depends on the set-up mode on stacked hurdle.Because newspaper stream can make all forwarder counter-rotatings by contrary operation, so the end of the approach on one hurdle, end of forwarder can be closed, for example, if the end can not be approaching, the 2nd gangway of storage unit 14 is arranged perhaps.
Cross-over connection forwarder 76 comprises 3 parts, the conversion portion 90 and 92 at its two ends, and the main portion between them 88, as shown in Figure 3.Main portion 88 comprises that a series of idle pulleys and a category are similar to the belt on the stacked forwarder 22.Difference is that main portion has two tapered end running rollers 82 round about.These tapered end running rollers as shown in Figure 5, are designed to have necessary angle, are used to make the cross-over connection forwarder to aim at a relative end on adjacent hurdle 72.The axis 84 of taper running roller is parallel to the axis of the running roller of corresponding stacked forwarder usually, and is positioned at two vertical plane surfacies that stacked forwarder two ends limit.
As shown in Figure 5, conversion portion 92 has the direction opposite with conversion portion 90, it comprises one group of belt 94 that extend around tapered end running roller 82 and nothing awl roller degree wheel 96, with the main portion sustained height on, and have one to be arranged essentially parallel to the axle of the running roller of stacked forwarder, and be positioned at the vertical surface that corresponding hurdle is limited by each end of stacked forwarder.If this system comprises the commutation forwarder, then zero draft running roller 96 part of forwarder that preferably commutates is used for guiding newspaper stream S to arrive the cross-over connection forwarder from the end of the final stage forwarder on corresponding hurdle, and is perhaps opposite.The different surfaces speed of passing through bevel wheel length helps the transmission of newspaper stream S from stacked forwarder to the diagonal angle forwarder, and returns and reach stacked forwarder.
Loose decal storage unit can be driven by the device that is fit to.Usually, the stacked forwarder 22 in the unit mechanically connects, and they can be by a propulsion source driven in synchronism, as shown in figure 12 like this.Stacked forwarder can mechanically be connected with rotating band or the chain 102 that subordinate drives runner 106 by a series of connection power driven wheels 104.Because the approach by the forwarder heap spirals, the direct of travel every a forwarder during each is folded is identical, and the direct of travel of adjacent forwarder is opposite.The mechanical system that all forwarders of advancing in the same way in each is folded all pass through rotating band or chain connects, the drive wheel 104 or 106 of this band or the chain forwarder from the other end of an adjacent forwarder extends out, rotating band or chain 102 outside or not have partly to contact driving runner 104 or 106 on the adjacent forwarder mid point.
Stacked forwarder also can be driven by an adjustable varying-speed motor 108, and this electrical motor is connected with the end rollers wheels by band or chain 110.Usually, rotating band or chain 110 are around 3 adjacent power driven running rollers 104 and S-shaped by the driving belt wheel 112 of driving engine 108 drivings, as shown in figure 13.Stacked forwarder can be equipped with the reserve manual operations as required and drive attaching parts 114, as shown in figure 14.
As shown in figure 15, another selection of lamination unit is by propulsion source at a distance drive wheel 116 friction-driven.For example, the exit end of the transmission forwarder 118 of coming from the printer (not shown) can be equipped a cover drive wheel 116, and these take turns the exit end that is positioned at transmission forwarder 120.When the arrival end of stacked forwarder longitudinally with the mouth of transmission forwarder on time, drive wheel 116 will frictionally connect a power driven runner 104 that is enclosed within on the stacked translator unit.In case connect, stacked forwarder just with transmit forwarder synchronized operation.
