Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for taking over and leading away folded printed sheets from a conveying device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Devices of this type are known from CH-PSs 358100 and 459270, in which the printed sheets are lifted from endless, continuously driven transport chains by raising a lifting value. Due to this lifting blade, which is arranged between the transport chains and before it is deflected, the printed sheets are fed with the folded edge ahead of a conveyor arrangement which is formed by pairs of rollers or rollers interacting with conveyor belts and which is followed by a belt conveyor, which generally consists of several leads formed products into one another.
  • the present invention is based on the object of creating a device of the type mentioned at the outset which allows the printed sheets taken over by the conveying device to be kept open or opened.
  • the printed sheets held by the holding members on the folded edge can easily be opened by pivoting the holding members about an axis that is essentially perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveyor and parallel to the folded edges. Because of this pivoting movement, one product half is lifted from the other product half.
  • the device according to the invention has particular advantages in a collecting device in which a plurality of collecting conveyors running parallel to one another and to a common rotation axis are provided, which are arranged around this rotation axis and can be driven to rotate around this common rotation axis while the printing sheets are being conveyed.
  • a single removal conveyor is sufficient to take over and carry away the products formed from a plurality of printing sheets lying one inside the other from the various collecting conveyors, each of which is assigned a lifting device for the printing sheets.
  • a collecting device 1 is shown purely schematically in FIG. 1, which has a base plate 2 with bearing blocks 3, 3 ', in which the shaft 4 of a collecting drum 5 is mounted.
  • Two disk-shaped bearing elements 6, 7 are fastened on the shaft 4 at a distance from one another, between which a number of collecting conveyors 8 are arranged, the construction and storage of which will be explained in more detail with reference to FIG. 2.
  • the collecting conveyors 8 run parallel to one another and to the shaft 4 of the collecting drum 5 and are arranged around this shaft 4.
  • the latter sits on the output shaft of a drive 12, by means of which the collecting drum 5 together with the collecting conveyors 8 is driven in the direction of the arrow A.
  • the axis of rotation is designated 4a.
  • feed conveyors 13, 14, 15 for folded printed sheets 16, 17 and 18 are arranged one behind the other.
  • the only very schematically illustrated feed conveyors 13, 14, 15 end in the vicinity of the circumference of the collecting drum 5 and use it to define a transfer area 13a, 14a and 15a for the printed sheets 16, 17 and 18, respectively.
  • Each feed conveyor 13, 14, 15 has a gripper 19 which is fastened at a mutual distance to a revolving drive element and which grips the printed sheets 16, 17, 18 at their folded edge 16a, 17a, 18a and with the feed this fold edge opposite the open side edge in advance.
  • an opening device not shown in FIG. 1, the printed sheets 16, 17, 18 are opened and placed on the collecting conveyors 8 or on the printed sheets already located thereon.
  • a conveyor 20 also shown only schematically in FIG. 1, which has holding members 21 fastened to a pulling member at a mutual distance and rotating in the direction of arrow C.
  • the exact structure of the conveyor 20 will be described with reference to Figures 2 and 3.
  • the holding members 21 take over the products 22 consisting of several superimposed printed sheets 16, 17, 18 in the takeover area designated 23 in a manner still to be explained and bring them to a second collecting drum, as will be described with reference to FIG. 5.
  • each collecting conveyor 8 has a continuous support tube 24 which is mounted at both ends via pivot pins 25 in pivoting levers 26.
  • These pivot levers 26 are pivotally mounted on the bearing elements 6, 7 (FIG. 1) in a manner not shown in detail.
  • the collecting conveyors 8 are pivoted about their journals 25 during their rotation about the rotation axis 4a in such a way that they maintain their essentially vertical position, as is described in more detail in Swiss Patent Application No. 3 311/85 .
  • Each collecting conveyor 8 has an endless conveyor chain 27 driven in the direction of arrow B, which is provided with support elements 28 for the printed sheets 16, 17, 18.
  • the conveyor chain 27 is guided over deflection wheels 29, of which the rear deflection wheel viewed in the direction of conveyance B is indicated in FIG.
  • the conveyor chain 27 is further provided with drivers 30 arranged at regular intervals, which engage the trailing edges of the printed sheets 16, 17, 18 and 22, respectively.
  • the drive of the conveyor chains 27 is derived in a manner not shown from the rotary movement of the collecting conveyors 8 about their journals 25 during their rotation around the axis 4a, as is explained in more detail in the Swiss patent application 2828/85.
  • Each collecting conveyor 8 has a lifting device 31, which is arranged behind the rear deflection wheel 29 as seen in the conveying direction B of the associated conveyor chain 27.
  • the lifting device 31 is arranged between two support plates 32, 33 arranged in the manner of a gable roof, which are attached at their upper end to a holding strip 34 forming the ridge, as can be seen from FIG. 3.
  • the support plates 32, 33 serve as a support for the product halves 22a and 22b.
  • the lifting device 31 has two lifting fingers 35 and 36 arranged at a distance one behind the other, which are pivotably mounted about an axis 35a and 36a.
  • the lifting fingers 35, 36 can be pivoted between a lower end position, shown with solid or dashed lines, and an upper end position, shown in dash-dotted lines and designated 35 'or 36'.
  • On the lifting fingers 35, 36 each a tension spring 37 or 38 engages, which holds the lifting fingers 35, 36 in the lower end position.
  • each lifting finger 35, 36 is engaged by a coupling member 39 or 40, which is connected at the other end to a transmission lever 41, 42.
  • the transmission lever 41, 42 sit on an operating rod 43, which is rotatably mounted in bearings 44, 45 fastened to the support tube 24.
  • this actuating rod 43 carries a control roller 46, which cooperates with a control disk 47, which sits on the bearing journal 25 and rotates with it during the rotation of the collecting conveyor 8 about the rotation axis 4a.
  • the control disk 47 causes the actuating rod 43 to rotate via the control roller 46.
  • This has the lifting fingers 35, 36 pivoting up against the force of the tension springs via the transmission levers 41, 42 and the coupling members 39, 40 37, 38 result.
  • the lifting fingers 35, 36 are pivoted back into the lower end position by the springs 37, 38.
  • the conveyor 20 has a chain 49 guided in a chain channel 48, to which the holding members 21 are fastened at regular intervals.
  • the chain 49 is driven in the direction of arrow C in a manner not shown.
  • fastening elements 50 are attached to the chain 49, to which bearing elements 51 for a pivot shaft 52 are fastened (right half of the sectional illustration in FIG. 2).
  • This pivot shaft 52 connects two holding plates 53, 54 which are arranged at a distance from one another and in which a tubular arm 55 is held which extends at right angles to the conveying direction C of the conveyor 20.
  • fasteners 56, 57 are attached, on which clamping members 58, 59 are pivotally mounted.
  • Each clamping member 58, 59 is pivoted inwards by means of an actuating mechanism 60 or 61 from a release position shown in solid lines into a clamping position shown in dash-dotted lines and designated 58 'or 59'.
  • Each actuating mechanism 60, 61 has an actuating rod 62 or 63 which can be displaced in the longitudinal direction of the arm 55 and which carries an angled connecting piece 64 or 65 at the outer end, which can be rotated at the points designated 64a or 65a with the associated clamping member 58 or 59 is connected.
  • the fastening points 64a and 65a are arranged at a distance from the pivot axes 58a and 59a of the clamping members 58, 59.
  • a tension spring 66 engages the actuating rods 62, 63, which strives to pull the actuating rods 62, 63 inwards, which results in the clamping members 58, 59 pivoting into the clamping position.
  • Each actuating rod 62, 63 carries a control roller 68 and 69, which cooperate with control cams 70 and 71, which are fastened to a holder 72 (FIG. 2).
  • the control rollers 68, 69 run onto the control cams 70, 71, the actuating rods 62, 63 are displaced outward against the force of the tension spring 66, which results in the clamping members 58, 59 pivoting back into the open or release position.
  • the clamping members 58, 59 cooperate in their clamping position with counterholders 73 and 74, which are provided on the arm 55.
  • a torsion spring 75 Arranged around the pivot shaft 52 is a torsion spring 75 which is supported on the bearing element 51 and which holds the holding members 21 and thus the clamping members 58, 59 together with the associated counterholders 73, 74 in a vertical position.
  • Control rollers 76, 77 are now attached to the holding plates 53, 54 and are intended to cooperate with scenes 78 (FIGS. 2 & 5) which, in a manner to be described below, cause the holding members 21 to pivot about the pivot shaft 52.
  • the printed sheets 16, 17, 18 fed by the feed conveyors 13, 14, 15 are superimposed on one another as an intermediate product 22 during their advancement by the collecting conveyors 8.
  • These intermediate products 22, which sit astride the collecting conveyors 8, are pushed at the end of the conveyor chains 27 by the carriers 30 over the support plates 32, 33 arranged in the manner of a roof, on which they rest with their product halves 22a and 22b, as shown in the figures 2 and 3 can be seen.
  • This takes place when entering the take-over area 23.
  • the lifting fingers 35, 36 are pivoted from their lower end position towards the upper end position. In doing so, they grasp the open product 22 lying on the inside of the folded edge 22 'and lift the product 22. Since the lifting fingers 35, 36 are pivoted in the conveying direction B, the products 22 continue to be advanced in this conveying direction B during the lifting.
  • the control cams 70, 71 are arranged in this takeover area 23. This means that When the holding members 21 enter the transfer area 23, the actuating rods 62, 63 are displaced outward, which results in the clamping members 58, 59 pivoting into the open position, as shown in FIG. 2. To take over the products 22 which have been raised and opened in the manner described, the clamping members 58, 59 are now moved in laterally between the product halves 22a, 22b, ie controlled by the tension spring 66 and the control cams 70, 71 from the open position to the clamping position 58 'or 59 'pivoted.
  • the captured product 22 is pressed with the folded edge 22 ′ against the associated counter-holder 73 or 74, as shown in FIGS. 2-4.
  • the products 22 clamped in this way are conveyed away in a hanging position in the conveying direction C of the conveyor 20 and are thereby lifted from the collecting conveyors 8, as can be seen in particular from FIG.
  • the clamping members 58, 59 located between the product halves 22a, 22b prevent the taken-over products 22 from closing completely.
  • the holding members 21, ie the clamping members 58, 59 together with the associated counterholders 73, 74 are pivoted about the pivot axis 52, as can be seen from FIG.
  • the scenes 78 are available, on which the control rollers 76, 77 run.
  • the device described can be designed and used differently than shown.
  • the products 22 taken over by the removal conveyor 20 can be fed to a single stationary conveyor, which takes over the products 22 and leads them away in a direction approximately perpendicular to the conveying direction C of the removal conveyor 20.
  • This single conveyor can, for example, be a collecting conveyor or as a feed to a processing station, e.g. a stapling and or cutting machine. In the latter case, the product 22 would be an end product.
  • products can also be taken over from a single, fixed collecting conveyor, as is shown, for example, in the already mentioned CH-PSs 358 100 and 459 270.
