Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sheet or roll multi-color rotary printing machine, in particular for printing the security background on securities, especially banknotes, with an impression cylinder, a first blanket cylinder, with several cylinders, each colored by an inking unit with different colors, which with the first Working together blanket cylinders for applying a multicolor image, and with a group of two cylinders, consisting of a plate cylinder which carries a high-pressure plate having the complete pattern to be printed, and a second blanket cylinder interacting with this plate cylinder.
  • a single plate cylinder with a high-pressure plate is provided, which has the complete pattern to be printed.
  • These H ochtikplatte is inked by a collecting cylinder, which is in turn inked by stencil rollers, the sectoral cut stencil in the form of ink-accepting increases correspondingly have the different color zones; each stencil roller transfers the color with which it is inked by its own inking unit.
  • This printing process gives a multicolored image on which the register between the different colors of the image pattern is perfect; such a result can practically not be achieved with any other printing method.
  • multi-color printing with superimposed colors and patterns is known (indirect letterpress or offset printing), which is also often used to print the security background on securities.
  • the complete print pattern is composed of differently colored partial patterns;
  • Each partial pattern of a certain color is represented by a printing plate, which is arranged on a plate cylinder. This creates a register-based overlay of the different colors and patterns.
  • the number of printing plates and consequently the plate cylinders corresponds to the number of differently colored partial patterns which form the complete multicolored image.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a single rotary printing press, with which one can carry out both one and the other of the printing methods mentioned and which on one the most professional way to enable the transition from one printing process to another.
  • the main advantage of the printing machine according to the invention is not only of a technical nature, since it enables two completely different printing processes, but also of an economic nature, because it offers the user the choice of the printing process without having to use two separate machines.
  • the printing press has a known sheet feed device 1, which has a scale feeder (not shown), a stop drum 2, a transfer drum 3 and a paper dusting and A ntistatikvorraum 5 has.
  • a B may be provided ogenrandnumerierwerk. 4
  • the sheets arrive to a counter-pressure cylinder 6, which rotates in the direction of the arrow, and transported after printing by a chain gripper system 20 to a sheet delivery or to a further printing machine for the purpose of B e-druckung the other side of the sheet.
  • the sheets on the impression cylinder 6 can be printed according to the invention either by the "Orlof" process (FIG. 1) or in indirect letterpress or offset printing (FIG. 2), preferably to produce a multicolored security background on one side of a security .
  • the printing press to a G ummizylinder 7, which is used, however, in both cases, in different ways.
  • the impression cylinder 6 has moved away from the blanket cylinder 7 (FIG. 1).
  • a shifting of the impression cylinder 6 from the blanket cylinder 7 can easily be achieved with the aid of an eccentric 6b on which the body of the impression cylinder 6 is mounted.
  • Such assembly with the aid of an eccentric is known for adjusting the contact pressure and for turning off two cylinders that are not in operation; when the eccentric is turned, the axis of the cylinder in question shifts accordingly. Means already known for existing machines can be used for this dislocation. If the two cylinders are separate, the distance between them is very small, generally only one or more millimeters; the distance shown in Figure 1 is greatly exaggerated.
  • the rubber cylinder 7 interacts with four stencil rollers 8, which have sector-like relief-like elevations 8a corresponding to the contour of the zones to be printed in the relevant color; each of these elevations 8a is in turn inked by an inking unit 9 assigned to the relevant stencil roller 8.
  • These stencil rollers 8 with their ink-accepting elevations 8a are preferably made of a hard material which does not deform even in the case of very finely cut reliefs, so that a security base can be produced from very fine lines.
  • the zones of the four colors corresponding to the contours of the elevations 8a are transferred to the rubber cylinder 7, which functions as a collecting cylinder which combines these color zones next to one another and transfers them to the printing plate 10a of a single plate cylinder 10.
  • This printing plate 10a is a high-pressure plate and has the complete pattern to be printed in four colors.
  • the complete image, colored in the different colors, is in turn transferred to a rubber cylinder 11, which has a smaller diameter than the rubber cylinder 7 and cooperates with the impression cylinder 6 in order to print the complete image on the paper.
  • the machine also has two ink transfer cylinders 12 and 13 in contact, which transfer the same image of the ink zones located on the blanket cylinder 7 from this blanket cylinder 7 to the plate cylinder 10 in register, thereby intensifying the inking of the printing plate 10a and consequently these zones the colors in question are better covered.
  • the majority of the colors are first transferred directly to the printing plate 10a of the plate cylinder 10, while the residual ink is then transferred in register by means of the F arbübertragungszylinder 12 and 13.
  • the dampening offset system has a plate cylinder 14 carrying an intaglio printing plate, an inking unit 15 and a dampening unit 16 known per se, the intaglio printing cylinder 14 cooperating with a rubber cylinder 17 which transfers the image onto the paper.
  • a complete print on a banknote page in a single printing process namely the four-color security background by printing according to the "Orlof” process and the single-color main pattern by wet offset printing.
  • the ratio of the diameters of the cylinders 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 17 on the one hand and the cylinders 6 and 7 on the other hand is 1: 3; the circumference of the cylinders 6 and 7 thus corresponds to the dimensions of three sheets of paper, and accordingly the blanket cylinder 7 and the impression cylinder 6 are each covered with three blankets 7a and 6a, while the blanket cylinder 11 and the ink transfer cylinders 12 and 13 each have only one blanket lla, Wear 12a or 13a.
  • the printing on the paper takes place directly through the plate cylinder 10, with the inking of the printing plate 10a by the rubber cylinder 11 takes place, which in turn is in contact with both the blanket cylinder 7 and the transfer cylinder 13.
  • the stencil rollers 8, 8a In the event that the same machine is to be used for indirect high-pressure or offset printing (FIG. 2), it is sufficient to replace the stencil rollers 8, 8a with plate cylinders 8 carrying printing plates 8b, to switch off the rubber cylinder 11 from the impression cylinder 6, and also the plate cylinder 10 and F shut arbübertragungszylinder 12 from the blanket cylinder 7 and to make the impression cylinder 6 to the blanket cylinder 7, so that they touch the two cylinders.
  • the printing plates 8b are high-pressure plates, as are used in dry offset printing, and have partial patterns which, as in the previous case, are colored by inking units 9. These differently colored partial patterns are combined in register on the rubber cylinder 7, which in this case functions as a collecting cylinder for the partial patterns forming the multicolored overall picture.
  • the adjustment of the distance between the different cylinders, that is, between the impression cylinder 6 and the blanket cylinder 7, between the blanket cylinder 11 and the impression cylinder 6, between the cylinders 10 and 12 and the blanket cylinder 7, as well as the necessary displacements of the other, interacting with these cylinders Cylinder can be reached by known adjustment means, especially by all Cylinder can be mounted on eccentric bushes, as has already been mentioned for the impression cylinder 6.
  • the distances between non-interacting cylinders are very small and generally only a few millimeters in size.
  • the plate cylinder 10, the blanket cylinder 11 and the ink transfer cylinders 12 and 13 are not used and are therefore stopped by decoupling from the drive system of the machine.
  • wet offset system can be dispensed with in the context of the invention, but, as mentioned, this system allows a complete print to be obtained on one side of a security.
  • the stencil rollers 8, 8a which are intended for inking the blanket cylinder 7 when printing according to the "Orlof" method, can be replaced by inking stencils or by color contour plates which can be attached to the actual rollers or cylinders.
