Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Farbwerk einer Druckmaschine, insbesondere einer Rotations-Offsetdruckmaschine, mit einer eine Farbschicht tragenden Farbkastenwalze, von der über weitere Farbwalzen Farbe zu einem Plattenzylinder übertragbar ist.The invention relates to an inking unit of a printing press, in particular a rotary offset printing press, with an ink fountain roller carrying an ink layer, from which ink can be transferred to a plate cylinder via further inking rollers.

Ein solches Farbwerk ist allgemein bekannt.Such an inking unit is generally known.

Aus der DD-C-104 259 ist bereits ein Farbwerk bekannt, bei dem. unter Zwischenschaltung von farbzonenbreiten, verschwenkbaren, voneinander beabstandeten Farbdosierscheiben Farbe übertragen wird. Nachteilig ist bei diesem Farbwerk, daß zum einen während der Anlagezeit der Farbdosierscheiben an der Farbkastenwalze diese Scheiben nicht für die Verreibung an der farbstromabwärts liegenden Farbwerkwalze zur Verfügung stehen und daß zum anderen eine zyklische Beschleunigung und Abbremsung der Farbdosierscheibe erfolgt, die neben den durch die Scheibenanschläge hervorgerufenen Stößen zu Unruhen im Antriebsräderzug des Farbwerkes und der Druckwerkzylinder führen, wodurch eine merkliche Verschlechterung des Druckes auftreten kann.From the DD-C-104 259 an inking unit is already known in which. with the interposition of color zone-wide, pivotable, spaced-apart color metering discs, color is transferred. Disadvantages of this inking unit are that, on the one hand, during the installation of the ink metering discs on the ink fountain roller, these discs are not available for rubbing against the inking roller located downstream of the ink flow and, on the other hand, that the ink metering disc is cyclically accelerated and braked, in addition to those caused by the disc stops The resulting impacts lead to unrest in the drive wheel train of the inking unit and the printing unit cylinder, which can result in a noticeable deterioration in the pressure.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, das gattungsgemäße Farbwerk so zu verbessern, daß eine feinfühlige Einstellung der Farbmenge möglich ist.The object of the present invention is to improve the generic inking unit in such a way that a sensitive adjustment of the amount of ink is possible.

Farbwerkwalze für die Verreibung der Farbschicht auf dieser eingesetzt werden können und daß keine Beschleunigungs- und Abbremsvorgänge an den Farbdosierscheiben erforderlich sind, wobei auch der nachträgliche Einbau der erfindungsgemäßen Farbdosiervorrichtung in konventionelle Farbwerke in verhältnismäßig einfacher Weise möglich sein soll.Ink roller can be used for the rubbing of the ink layer on this and that no acceleration and braking processes on the ink metering disks are required, the subsequent installation of the ink metering device according to the invention in conventional inking units should be possible in a relatively simple manner.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Anwendung der Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teils des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen sowie aus der Beschreibung in Verbindung mit den Zeichnungen. In diesen zeigen

This object is achieved by applying the features of the characterizing part of patent claim 1. Further developments of the invention result from the subclaims and from the description in conjunction with the drawings. Show in these
  • Figure 1 is a schematic representation of the ink metering device according to the invention.

Fig. 1 zeigt in schematischer Darstellung die erfindungsgemäße Farbdosiervorrichtung in einer konventionellen Offsetrotationsdruckmaschine für Schön- und Widerdruck, wobei nur die für die Erfindung wesentlichen Teile mit Bezugszeichen versehen sind. Von einer Farbkastenwalze 2, die bereits eine vordosierte Farbschicht trägt, wird über einen sogenannten Filmspalt X in der Größenordnung von etwa 5/'00 mm auf eine Filmwalze 3, die mit einer wesentlich höheren Geschwindigkeit als die Farbkastenwalze 2 rotiert, Farbe übertragen. Die Vordosierung der Farbschicht auf der Farbkastenwalze 2 kann mittels eines herkömmlichen durchgehenden Farbmessers erfolgen. Bekanntlich rotieren die Farbkastenwalzen mit einer verhältnismäßig niedrigen Geschwindigkeit, während die an diese unter Einhaltung eines Spaltes angestellten, sogenannten Filmwalzen bereits mit Maschinengeschwindigkeit rotieren. Anstelle der in dem Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Fig. 1 dargestellten Filmwalze 3 kann auch unter Anwendung des der Erfindung zugrunde liegenden Prinzips eine herkömmliche gestrichelt dargestellte Heberwalze eingesetzt werden, wobei in diesem Fall eine derartige Heberwalze mit einem stationär angeordneten, sogenannten ersten Reiber zusammenwirkt, der etwa anstelle der Filmwalze 3 anzuordnen wäre. Die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung der Farbdosierscheiben 4 ist in dem Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Fig. 1 so getroffen, daß die nebeneinander sich in Achsrichtung der Walzen erstreckenden, voneinander beabstandeten Farbdosierscheiben 4 zwischen zwei mit Maschinengeschwindigkeit umlaufenden Walzen positioniert sind. Im Ausführungsbeispiel sind dies in vorteilhafter Weise die Filmwalze 3 und eine nachfolgende, mit Maschinengeschwindigkeit angetriebene Farbwerkwalze 5, beispielsweise ein Reiber. In vorteilhafter Weise erfolgt die Anordnung der Farbdosierscheiben 4 so, daß sie ständig in Kontakt mit der farbstromabwärts liegenden, also plattenzylindernahen Farbwerkwalze 5 stehen, so daß sie ständig für die Verreibung der Farbschicht auf dieser zur Verfügung stehen. Entsprechend dem zonenweisen Farbbedarf erfolgt die individuelle Anstellung der Farbdosierscheiben 4 unter Beibehaltung ihres Kontaktes zu der plattenzylindernahen Farbwerkwalze 5 an die Filmwalze 3. Die Farbdosierscheiben 4 werden etwa bogenförmig um die Farbwerkwalze 5 herumgeführt. Diese etwa bogenförmig Verschwenkung der Farbdosierscheiben 4 zur Filmwalze hin kann äußerst gering, beispielsweise nur einige Zehntel Millimeter, sein. Der Plattenzylinder ist mit 1 bezeichnet.Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of the ink metering device according to the invention in a conventional offset rotary printing press for face and reverse printing, only the parts essential to the invention being provided with reference numerals. Of an ink fountain roller 2, which already carries a pre-metered ink layer, is a so-called film gap X in the order of about 5 / '00 mm to a film roll 3 which rotates at a much higher speed than the ink fountain roller 2, transfer color. The pre-metering of the ink layer on the ink fountain roller 2 can be carried out using a conventional continuous ink knife. As is known, the ink fountain rollers rotate at a relatively low speed, while the so-called film rollers, which are operated on them while maintaining a gap, are already rotating at machine speed. Instead of the film roller 3 shown in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 1, a conventional lifter roller shown in dashed lines can also be used using the principle underlying the invention, in which case such a lifter roller interacts with a stationary so-called first grater, which acts approximately instead the film roller 3 would be arranged. The arrangement of the ink metering disks 4 according to the invention is made in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 1 such that the ink metering disks 4, which extend alongside one another in the axial direction of the rollers, are positioned between two rollers rotating at machine speed. In the exemplary embodiment, these are advantageously the film roller 3 and a subsequent inking roller 5 driven at machine speed, for example a grater. Advantageously, the arrangement of the ink metering disks 4 is such that they are in constant contact with the inking roller 5 lying downstream of the ink flow, that is to say close to the plate cylinder, so that they are constantly available for the rubbing of the ink layer on this. In accordance with the zone-by-area ink requirement, the ink metering disks 4 are adjusted individually while maintaining their contact with the inking roller 5 close to the plate cylinder to the film roller 3. This approximately arcuate pivoting of the ink metering discs 4 towards the film roller can be extremely small, for example only a few tenths of a millimeter. The plate cylinder is designated 1.

Im nachfolgenden wird eine für die genannte Verschwenkung der Farbdosierscheiben 4 besonders geeignete Vorrichtung anhand der Figuren 2 bis 7 im einzelnen beschrieben.A device which is particularly suitable for the aforementioned pivoting of the color metering disks 4 is described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 2 to 7.

Wie die Figuren 2 und 3 erkennen lassen, sind die Farbdosierelemente 4 in Achsrichtung der Walzen 3, 5 nebeneinander angeordnet und durch Abstandsbüchsen 8' voneinander beabstandet. Jedes Farbdosierelement 4 ist an mindestens einem - aber vorzugsweise zwei - etwa winkelförmigen Schwenkhebeln 6 drehbar gehalten. Ein Ende der Schwenkhebel 6 ist jeweils schwenkbar auf einer ortsfesten Welle 8 angeordnet. Das andere Ende eines jeden Schwenkhebels 6 ist mit einer Steuervorrichtung, vorzugsweise einem Hubkolben, verbunden. In dem hier beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel wird ein pneumatisch betätigbarer Hubkolben, bestehend aus dem Kolben 9 und dem diesen umfassenden Zylinder 10, verwendet. Der Kolben 9 ist in besonderer Weise über den Weg Y verschiebbar und mittels eines Lagers 11 schwenkbar. Die Hubbewegung des Kolbens 9 ist durch Muttern 12, 13 einstellbar. Das Maß der Anstellkraft für die Farbdosierelemente 4 in Richtung Walze 3 ist durch den Luftdruck im Zylinder 10 bestimmt. In der Mitte des Schwenkhebels 6 ist jeweils eine Dosierscheibe 4 drehbar auf Zapfen 15 angeordnet, während die Kolbenstange 14 über einen Bolzen 16 mit einem Ende des Schwenkhebels 6 verbunden ist. Zum Zwecke der Anstellung der Walze 4 in Richtung Walze 5 können z.B. die Schwenkhebel 6 jeweils über Exzenter auf der Welle 8 angeordnet sein.As can be seen from FIGS. 2 and 3, the ink metering elements 4 are arranged next to one another in the axial direction of the rollers 3, 5 and are spaced apart from one another by spacer bushings 8 ′. Each color metering element 4 is rotatably held on at least one - but preferably two - approximately angular pivot levers 6. One end of the pivot lever 6 is pivotably arranged on a fixed shaft 8. The other end of each pivot lever 6 is connected to a control device, preferably a reciprocating piston. In the exemplary embodiment described here, a pneumatically actuated lifting piston, consisting of the piston 9 and the cylinder 10 comprising it, is used. The piston 9 can be moved in a special way along the path Y and pivoted by means of a bearing 11. The stroke movement of the piston 9 is adjustable by nuts 12, 13. The degree of the contact force for the ink metering elements 4 in the direction of the roller 3 is determined by the air pressure in Determined cylinder 10. In the middle of the pivot lever 6, a metering disk 4 is rotatably arranged on a pin 15, while the piston rod 14 is connected to one end of the pivot lever 6 via a bolt 16. For the purpose of adjusting the roller 4 in the direction of the roller 5, for example the pivot levers 6 can each be arranged on the shaft 8 via eccentrics.

Es ist wesentlich, daß stets ein Kontakt zwischen den Farbdosierscheiben 4 und der Farbwerkwalze 5 aufrechterhalten bleibt und zwar auch bei Abnützung des Walzenumfanges.It is essential that contact between the ink metering disks 4 and the inking roller 5 is always maintained, even when the circumference of the roller is worn.

Um eine derartige Bewegung, d. h. Verschwenkung der Farbdosierelemente 4 der Oberfläche der Farbwerkwalze 5 entlang in Richtung Farbkastenwalze 3 über den Weg Y zu ermöglichen, ist in vorteilhafter Weise der Zylinder 10 schwenkbar im Lager 11 angeordnet. Für diesen Zweck sind an dem Zylinder 10, wie aus Fig. 2 und den Figuren 5 und 6 zu entnehmen ist, beidseitig jeweils Lagerzapfen 18, 19 vorgesehen, die vorzugsweise in einer gemeinsamen Kammleiste 17 angeordnet sind. Die Lagerzapfen 18, 19 sind durch einen Lagerdeckel 20 abgedeckt. Die Auflagen 21 dienen zur Aufnahme der Lagerzapfen 18, 19.To such a movement, i. H. To enable pivoting of the ink metering elements 4 along the surface of the inking roller 5 in the direction of the ink fountain roller 3 via the path Y, the cylinder 10 is advantageously pivotally arranged in the bearing 11. For this purpose, as is apparent from FIG. 2 and FIGS. 5 and 6, bearing pins 18, 19 are provided on both sides of the cylinder 10, which are preferably arranged in a common comb strip 17. The bearing journals 18, 19 are covered by a bearing cover 20. The supports 21 serve to receive the bearing pins 18, 19.

Fig. 7 zeigt einen Taktgeber 23, der beispielsweise mittels eines Rechners entsprechend dem Farbbedarf in der jeweiligen Farbzone in der gewünschten Weise steuerbar ist. Dieser ist mit einem Magnetsteuerventil 24 verbunden, von dem aus zwei Steuerleitungen 25, 26 an den Zylinder 10 angelegt sind. Wird die Preßluft P' beispielsweise über die Leitung 26 an den Zylinder 10 angelegt, so wird die Kolbenstange 14 ausgefahren. Der Einzug der Kolbenstange 14 erfolgt durch Beaufschlagung mit P über die Leitungen 25 des Kolbens 10.7 shows a clock generator 23 which can be controlled in the desired manner, for example by means of a computer, in accordance with the color requirement in the respective color zone. This is connected to a solenoid control valve 24, from which two control lines 25, 26 are applied to the cylinder 10. If the compressed air P 'is applied to the cylinder 10 via the line 26, for example, the piston rod 14 is extended. The piston rod 14 is drawn in by applying P via the lines 25 of the piston 10.
