Abstract

At least one continuously arriving product stream of printed products is to be transferred to the infeed paths or lines of two or more processing stations. To ensure that the distribution of the arriving product stream can be accomplished as continuously as possible and accommodated optimumly to the requirements of the processing stations, the product stream is guided such that it crosses the infeed paths. At the crossings or cross-over locations the product stream is at least periodically delivered to a storage device and at the same crossings or cross-over locations printed products are simultaneously transferred out of the storage device and at a transfer location delivered to an infeed location of the associated infeed path or line. Thus, at each crossing there is present an intermediate store or buffer of products which, on the one hand, renders possible a continuous conveyance of the product stream and, on the other hand, affords a continuous mode of operation of the processing stations.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Einrichtung gemäss dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to a device according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Im vorliegenden Zusammenhang ist unter dem Begriff "Verarbeitungsstation" jeweils eine Maschineneinheit zu verstehen, die die beispielsweise ab einer Druckerpresse über einen Förderer kontinuierlich anfallenden Druckereierzeugnisse weiterverarbeitet, beispielsweise mit anderen Druckereierzeugnissen zu einem Fertigprodukt vereinigt, oder eine Beilage in jedes der Druckereierzeugnisse einfügt, oder die Druckereierzeugnisse stapelt, paketiert, umschnürt und/oder umreift oder adressiert oder auf Format zuschneidet. Diese weitere Verarbeitung kann entweder im Durchlauf, d.h. kontinuierlich (beispielsweise Einfügen einer Beilage) erfolgen, oder aber schubweise (beispielsweise beim Paketieren). Dementsprechend ist die Arbeitsweise der solchen Verarbeitungsstationen vorgeschalteten Zuführstrecken kontinuierlich oder diskontinuierlich. Oft ist die Leistungsfähigkeit einer solchen Verarbeitungsstation jener der Druckerpresse bzw. des auf diese folgenden Förderers nicht gewachsen und/oder es besteht der Wunsch, Teile der Produktion einer bestimmten weiteren Verarbeitung und andere Teile derselben Produktion einer anderen weiteren Verarbeitung zuzuführen. Im einen wie im anderen Fall ist daher die kontinuierlich anfallende Produktion aufzuteilen.In the present context, the term "processing station" is to be understood in each case to mean a machine unit which processes the printed products which continuously arise, for example, from a printing press via a conveyor, for example combines them with other printed products to form a finished product, or inserts an insert into each of the printed products, or which Printed materials are stacked, packaged, strapped and / or strapped or addressed or cut to size. This further processing can either take place continuously, ie continuously (for example inserting an insert), or in batches (for example when packaging). Accordingly, the mode of operation of the feed sections upstream of such processing stations is continuous or discontinuous. Often, the performance of such a processing station does not match that of the printing press or of the conveyor following it, and / or there is a desire to produce a certain additional part of the production Processing and other parts of the same production to another processing. In one case as in the other, the continuous production must be divided up.

Man hat bereits vorgeschlagen, diese Aufteilung dadurch zu erreichen, dass in den Förderer Weichen eingebaut wurden, deren Zweige je an eine Verarbeitungsstation oder an die dieser vorgeschalteten Zuführstrecke führen. Dies bedingt aber, dass die gerade belieferte Verarbeitungsstation imstande sein sollte, während einer Belieferungsperiode die anfallenden Druckereierzeugnisse weiterzuverarbeiten. Es wurde aber bereits erwähnt, dass das Schluckvermögen der Verarbeitungsstationen von der Art der auszuführenden weiteren Verarbeitung abhängt und deshalb möglicherweise der Leistungsfähigkeit des Förderers nicht gewachsen ist.It has already been proposed to achieve this division by installing switches in the conveyor, the branches of which each lead to a processing station or to the feed line upstream of this. However, this means that the processing station just supplied should be able to further process the resulting printed products during a delivery period. However, it has already been mentioned that the swallowing capacity of the processing stations depends on the type of further processing to be carried out and therefore possibly does not match the performance of the conveyor.

Auch hat man schon vorgeschlagen, die Aufteilung dadurch zu erzielen, dass dem Förderer beispielsweise nur jedes zweite Druckereierzeugnis der einen Zuführstrecke zugeführt wird und die übrigen der anderen Zuführstrecke. Auch diese Lösung vermag nicht ganz zu befriedigen, denn sie setzt voraus, dass der den anfallenden Strom zuführende Förderer ein speziell ausgebildeter Einzelförderer ist, wobei zusätzlich bei den Verarbeitungsstationen mit schubweiser Arbeitsweise ein Stauraum vorgesehen sein muss, um die während der Pause zwischen zwei Arbeitsschüben zugeführten Druckereierzeugnisse aufzunehmen.It has also already been proposed to achieve the division by feeding the conveyor, for example, only every second printed product to one feed line and the rest to the other feed line. This solution, too, is not entirely satisfactory, because it requires that the conveyor supplying the current is a specially trained individual conveyor, whereby in addition to the processing stations with batch mode of operation, storage space must be provided in order to supply the feed between two work batches during the break To include printed matter.

Eine die Merkmale des Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1 aufweisende Einrichtung ist beispielsweise aus der DE-A-3 304 219 bekannt. Diese weist eine Speichereinrichtung mit zwei an einem gemeinsamen ortsfesten Gestell angeordneten, parallelachsigen Wickeleinrichtungen auf, deren beide Wikkelkerne mit einem gemeinsamen Wickelband miteinander verbunden sind. Zwischen den Wickeleinrichtungen verlaufen parallel zueinander ein Förderer zum Heranführen von Drukkereierzeugnissen in Teilschuppenformationen zur einen Wickeleinrichtung und eine Zuführstrecke zum Wegtransportieren der von der anderen Wickeleinrichtung abgegebenen Druckereierzeugnisse zu einer Verarbeitungsstation. Eine Weicheneinrichtung verbindet den Zuförderer mit der entsprechenden Wickeleinrichtung bzw. die andere Wickeleinrichtung mit der Zuführstrecke und die beiden Wickeleinrichtungen miteinander. Um die herangeführten Druckereierzeugnisse in gleicher gegenseitiger Lage nach dem Zwischenspeichern der Verarbeitungsstation zuführen zu können, werden diese in zwei separaten Teilschuppenströmen herangefördert und nach mehrmaligem Umwickeln von der einen Wickeleinrichtung auf die andere der Zuführstrecke übergeben. Mit dieser bekannten Einrichtung ist es unmöglich, gleichzeitig und unabhängig voneinander Druckereierzeugnisse aufzunehmen und abzugeben. Um dies zu ermöglichen wird vorgeschlagen, mehrere solche Speichereinrichtungen parallel nebeneinander anzuordnen, wobei der allen Speichereinrichtungen gemeinsame Förderer von verschiedenen Quellen gespiesen sein kann und die allen Speichereinrichtungen gemeinsame Förderstrecke Verzweigstellen zum Zuleiten der Druckereierzeugnisse an verschiedene Verarbeitungsstationen aufweisen kann.A device having the features of the preamble of claim 1 is known, for example, from DE-A-3 304 219. This has a storage device with two parallel-axis winding devices arranged on a common stationary frame, the two winding cores of which are connected to one another with a common winding tape. Between the winding devices run parallel to each other a conveyor for bringing up printed products in partial scale formations to a winding device and a feed path for transporting away the printed products delivered by the other winding device to a processing station. A switch device connects the feed conveyor with the corresponding winding device or the other winding device with the feed path and the two winding devices with each other. In order to be able to feed the printed products brought into the same mutual position after the intermediate storage of the processing station, they are conveyed up in two separate partial stream streams and, after being wrapped several times, transferred from one winding device to the other of the feed section. With this known device, it is impossible to pick up and deliver printed products simultaneously and independently of one another. In order to make this possible, it is proposed to arrange a plurality of such storage devices in parallel next to one another, wherein the conveyor common to all the storage devices can be fed from different sources and the conveying path common to all the storage devices can have branches for supplying the printed products to different processing stations.

Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik ist es eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine gattungsgemässe Einrichtung zu schaffen, die bei einfachem Aufbau die herangeführten Druckereierzeugnisse aufnehmen und unabhängig an die Verarbeitungsstation weiterleiten kann.Starting from this prior art, it is an object of the present invention to provide a generic device which, with a simple structure, can accommodate the printed products that are brought up and can independently pass them on to the processing station.

Zu diesem Zweck weist die vorgeschlagene Einrichtung gemäss der Erfindung die im Kennzeichen des Patentanspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmale auf.For this purpose, the proposed device according to the invention has the features specified in the characterizing part of patent claim 1.

Erfindungsgemäss ist im Überführbereich von einem Förderer zu einer Zuführstrecke gewissermassen ein Zwischenlager vorgesehen, das stets aufgefüllt und gleichzeitig abgebaut werden kann, wobei dieser Abbau unabhängig von der vom Förderer angelieferten Menge und optimal den Bedürfnissen der nachfolgenden Verarbeitungsstation angepasst ist.According to the invention, an intermediate store is provided in the transfer area from a conveyor to a feed section, which can always be filled and dismantled at the same time, this dismantling being independent of the quantity delivered by the conveyor and optimally adapted to the needs of the subsequent processing station.

Es wird zunächst auf Fig. 1 Bezug genommen. Bei der in einem sehr schematisch im Grundriss dargestellten Einrichtung 10 sind drei Förderer A, B, C mit strichpunktierten Linien angedeutet, die in der mit Pfeilen angegebenen Förderrichtung arbeiten. Ferner erkennt man vier Verarbeitungsstationen 11, 12, 13, 14, deren Zuführstrecken mit 15, 16, 17 bzw. 18 und deren Ausgänge mit 19, 20, 21 bzw. 22 bezeichnet sind. An den Ausgängen 19, 20, 21 steht je ein Transportmittel, beispielsweise ein Gabelstapler oder ein Lieferwagen 23 bereit, um die von den Verarbeitungsstationen erzeugten Produkte aufzunehmen und wegzutransportieren.Reference is first made to FIG. 1. In the device 10, which is shown very schematically in the plan view, three conveyors A, B, C are indicated with dash-dotted lines, which work in the conveying direction indicated by arrows. Furthermore, four processing stations 11, 12, 13, 14 can be seen, the feed paths of which are designated 15, 16, 17 and 18 and the outputs of which are designated 19, 20, 21 and 22, respectively. At the exits 19, 20, 21 there is a means of transport, for example a forklift or a delivery van 23, to pick up and transport the products generated by the processing stations.

Die Förderer A, B, C sind vorzugsweise endlos umlaufend angetriebene Einzelförderer in Ueberkopf-Bauweise, die mit in einem Abstand voneinander angeordneten, steuerbaren Greifern versehen sind, welche jeweils ein Druckereierzeugnis in seiner, in Förderrichtung gesehen, vorlaufenden Kante erfassen. Ein solcher Förderer ist beispielsweise in der US-PS 3,955,667 beschrieben.The conveyors A, B, C are preferably endlessly driven single conveyors in overhead design, which are provided with controllable grippers arranged at a distance from one another, each of which grips a printed product in its leading edge, as seen in the conveying direction. Such a conveyor is described, for example, in US Pat. No. 3,955,667.

Die Zuführstrecken 15 - 18 sind dagegen den jeweils zugeordneten Verarbeitungsstationen 11 - 14 angepasst ausgebildet und können beispielsweise durch Förderbänder, Bändchenförderer mit oder ohne Mitnehmer oder durch längs eines Gleittisches oder einer Gleitschiene bewegte Mitnehmer gebildet sein.The feed sections 15-18, on the other hand, are designed to be adapted to the respectively assigned processing stations 11-14 and can be formed, for example, by conveyor belts, belt conveyors with or without drivers or by drivers moving along a sliding table or a slide rail.

Aus Fig. 1 ist ersichtlich, dass alle Förderer A, B und C alle Zuführstrecken 15 - 18 im rechten Winkel kreuzen. Die insgesamt 12 Kreuzungsstellen sind mit 15A - 15c, mit 16A - 16C, mit 17A - 17C und mit 18A - 18C bezeichnet.From Fig. 1 it can be seen that all conveyors A, B and C cross all the feed sections 15-18 at right angles. The total of 12 crossing points are labeled 15A-15c, 16A-16C, 17A-17C and 18A-18C.

Im Bereich jeder dieser Kreuzungsstellen ist jede der Zuführstrecken 15 - 18 mit einem Paar Uebergabestellen 24, 25 versehen (siehe Kreuzungsstellen 15A und 17C), die im Abstand voneinander je zu beiden Seiten der Bahn der Förderer A, B bzw. C angeordnet sind. Ferner ist im Bereich jeder der Kreuzungsstellen als Speichereinrichtung ein nachstehend noch näher zu beschreibendes Zwillingswickel-Gestell 26 vorhanden, von denen jedes zwei Wickel 27 und 28 trägt.In the area of each of these crossing points, each of the feed lines 15-18 is provided with a pair of transfer points 24, 25 (see crossing points 15A and 17C) which are arranged at a distance from one another on either side of the path of the conveyors A, B and C, respectively. Furthermore, in the area of each of the crossing points there is a twin winding frame 26, to be described in more detail below, each of which carries two windings 27 and 28.

Als Speichereinrichtung kann aber auch eine Vorrichtung zum Bilden eines gewendelten Stapels, wie z. B. in der DE-PS 25 18 374 beschrieben, verwendet werden, bei der der Stapeltisch jedoch wie in der DE-PS 25 18 372 beschrieben ausgebildet sein kann.As a storage device, however, a device for forming a coiled stack, such as. B. described in DE-PS 25 18 374, used in the however, the stacking table can be designed as described in DE-PS 25 18 372.

Die Wickel 27 und 28 sind koaxial zueinander in einem solchen Abstand voneinander montiert, dass der eine Wickel eines der Gestelle 26 nach einem der Förderer A, B bzw. C ausgerichtet ist, der andere Wickel desselben Gestelles dagegen nach einer der Uebergabestellen 24, 25 an der betreffenden Kreuzungsstelle. An der Kreuzungsstelle 15A ist beispielsweise der Wickel 27 nach dem Förderer A ausgerichtet, und der Wickel 28 nach der Uebergabestelle 25. An der Kreuzungsstelle 17C ist dagegen der Wickel 28 nach dem Förderer C ausgerichtet und der Wickel 27 nach der Uebergabestelle 24 an der Zuführstrecke 17.The coils 27 and 28 are mounted coaxially to one another at such a distance from one another that one coil of one of the frames 26 is aligned with one of the conveyors A, B and C, while the other coil of the same frame is aligned with one of the transfer points 24, 25 the crossing point concerned. At the crossing point 15A, for example, the winding 27 is aligned with the conveyor A, and the winding 28 is aligned with the transfer point 25. At the crossing point 17C, however, the winding 28 is aligned with the conveyor C and the winding 27 with the transfer point 24 on the feed path 17 .

Die Wickelgestelle 26 sind - wie sich noch zeigen wirdlängs der Zuführstrecke, denen sie zugeordnet sind, verschiebbar, damit jeweils der eine der Wickel 27 (oder 28) nach einem der Förderer A, B, C ausgerichtet werden kann, wobei dann der andere Wickel 28 (oder 27) zwangsläufig nach einer der Uebergabestellen 24, 25 an der betreffenden Kreuzungsstelle ausgerichtet ist.The winding frames 26 are - as will be shown later - displaceable along the feed path to which they are assigned, so that in each case one of the windings 27 (or 28) can be aligned with one of the conveyors A, B, C, in which case the other winding 28 (or 27) is inevitably aligned with one of the transfer points 24, 25 at the relevant intersection.

Nun sei auf Fig. 2 und 3 mit der Vorbemerkung Bezug genommen, dass an sich das Aufwickeln von Druckereierzeugnissen zu einem Wickel und das Abwickeln eines solchen Wickels zur Entnahme der Druckereierzeugnisse von einem Wickel bekannt ist. Dazu kann beispielsweise auf DE-OS 32 36 866 (B 65 H 31/28), 32 44 663 oder 32 44 664 (beide B 65 H 29/51) hingewiesen werden.2 and 3 with the preliminary remark that the winding of printed products into a roll and the unwinding of such a roll for removing the printed products from a roll is known per se. For example, reference may be made to DE-OS 32 36 866 (B 65 H 31/28), 32 44 663 or 32 44 664 (both B 65 H 29/51).

In den Fig. 2 und 3 ist einer der Förderer A, B, C lediglich durch dessen Führungsschiene 29 angedeutet. Das Zwillingswickel-Gestell 26 weist einen Tragrahmen 30 auf, der mit einem Boden 31 versehen ist. Dieser Tragrahmen 30 weist koaxial zueinander fluchtende Lagerungen 32 auf, in denen zwei Wickelkerne 33, 34 koaxial zueinander gelagert sind. Auf Auslegerstützen 35 sind drei aufrechtstehende Träger 36, 37 und 38 (Fig. 3) montiert, in denen Lagerungen (nicht dargestellt) von zwei Wellen 39, 40 gegebenenfalls lotrecht verschiebbar angeordnet sind. Auf der Welle 39 sitzt eine Spule 41 und auf der Welle 40 eine Spule 42. Diese Spulen 41, 42 dienen entweder zur gebremsten Abgabe oder zur positiven Aufnahme eines Wickelbandes 43. In Fig. 3 ist der Wickel 27 auf dem Wickelkern 33 in Bildung begriffen, während der Wickel 28 auf dem Kern 34 abgewickelt wird. Die Wickelkerne 33 und 34, sowie die zugeordneten Spulen 41, 42 sind unabhängig voneinander und je nach Funktion in der einen oder in der anderen Drehrichtung angetrieben. Dementsprechend ist auf dem Boden 31 des Tragrahmens 30 für jeden der Wickelkerne/Spulen 33/41 bzw. 34/42 je ein Motor 44, 45 montiert, beispielsweise ein bezüglich Drehzahl stufenlos regelbarer und bezüglich Drehrichtung reversierbarer Getriebemotor, der über nur sehr schematisch als Kettentriebe 46, 47 bzw. 48, 49 angedeutete Wickelgetriebe den zugeordneten Wickelkern 33 bzw. 34 und die zugeordnete Spule 41 bzw. 42 antreibt.2 and 3, one of the conveyors A, B, C is only indicated by its guide rail 29. The twin-wrap frame 26 has a support frame 30 which is provided with a bottom 31. This support frame 30 has coaxially aligned bearings 32 in which two winding cores 33, 34 are mounted coaxially to one another. Three upright supports 36, 37 and 38 (FIG. 3) are mounted on cantilever supports 35, in which bearings (not shown) of two shafts 39, 40 are arranged such that they can be moved vertically, if necessary. A spool 41 sits on the shaft 39 and a spool 42 on the shaft 40. These spools 41, 42 are used either for the braked delivery or for the positive reception of a winding tape 43. In FIG. 3, the winding 27 on the winding core 33 is being formed , while the winding 28 is being unwound on the core 34. The winding cores 33 and 34 and the associated coils 41, 42 are driven independently of one another and depending on the function in one or the other direction of rotation. Accordingly, a motor 44, 45 is mounted on the bottom 31 of the support frame 30 for each of the winding cores / coils 33/41 or 34/42, for example a gear motor that is infinitely variable in terms of speed and reversible in terms of direction of rotation, which is only very schematically known as chain drives 46, 47 or 48, 49 indicated winding gear drives the associated winding core 33 or 34 and the associated coil 41 or 42.

Das gesamte Zwillingswickel-Gestell 26 ist über am Boden 31 des Tragrahmens 30 montierte Rollen 50 auf durch Endanschläge 51, 52 begrenzten Führungsschienen 53 in Richtung der Achsen der Wickelkerne 33, 34 verfahrbar. Zu diesem Zweck ist am Boden 31 zusätzlich ein vertikalachsiger, reversierbarer Getriebemotor 54 montiert, dessen Abtriebswelle den Boden 31 durchsetzt und mit einem Zahnrad 55 versehen ist. Dieses Zahnrad 55 kämmt mit einer zwischen den beiden Führungsschienen 53 (Fig. 2) fest angeordneten Zahnstange 56. Wenn nun der Getriebemotor 54 eingeschaltet wird, verschiebt sich das gesamte Zwillingswickel-Gestell 26 in Fig. 2 in Richtung des Pfeiles 57, bis in die mit der strichpunktierten Linie 58 angedeutete Lage. Während in Fig. 2 und 3 in der mit ausgezogenen Linien dargestellten Lage des Gestells 26 es der Wickel 27 ist, der die vom einen der Förderer A, B oder C anfallenden Druckereierzeugnisse durch Aufwickeln aufnimmt, und der Wickel 28 seine Druckereierzeugnisse der Uebergabestelle 25 abgibt, vertauschen diese Wickel in der mit der Linie 58 angedeuteten Lage Ihre Funktion. Dabei wird die Drehrichtung der Motoren 44 und 45 reversiert, und der Wickel 28, der nun nach einem der Förderer A, B bzw. C ausgerichtet ist, nimmt wieder Druckereierzeugnisse auf, während der Wickel 27 die in Fig. 3 nicht sichtbare Uebergabestelle 24 beliefert, wie in Fig. 1 an der Kreuzungsstelle 16A dargestellt.The entire twin-wrap frame 26 is mounted on rollers 50 mounted on the bottom 31 of the support frame 30 End stops 51, 52 delimited guide rails 53 can be moved in the direction of the axes of the winding cores 33, 34. For this purpose, a vertical-axis, reversible gear motor 54 is additionally mounted on the bottom 31, the output shaft of which passes through the bottom 31 and is provided with a gear 55. This gear 55 meshes with a rack 56 fixedly arranged between the two guide rails 53 (FIG. 2). When the geared motor 54 is now switched on, the entire twin-winding frame 26 in FIG. 2 moves in the direction of the arrow 57 into the position indicated by the dash-dotted line 58. 2 and 3, in the position of the frame 26 shown in solid lines, it is the winding 27 which receives the printed products resulting from one of the conveyors A, B or C by winding, and the winding 28 delivers its printed products to the transfer point 25 , these windings interchange their function in the position indicated by line 58. The direction of rotation of the motors 44 and 45 is reversed, and the winding 28, which is now aligned with one of the conveyors A, B and C, again receives printed products, while the winding 27 supplies the transfer point 24, which is not visible in FIG. 3 , as shown in Fig. 1 at the intersection 16A.

Einer der Vorteile des Zwillingswickel-Gestelles 26 in vorliegendem Zusammenhang ist auch darin zu sehen, dass es nicht erforderlich ist, einen vollen Wickel aus dem Tragrahmen 30 herauszuheben. Es genügt, dass die Greifer des in Fig. 4 als Ausführungsform des Transporteurs gemäss der US-PS 3,955,667 dargestellten Förderers A, B bzw. C so gesteuert werden, dass sie an der betreffenden Kreuzungsstelle die beförderten Druckereierzeugnisse Z nicht mehr freigeben und dass der diesem vollen Wickel zugeordnete Motor stillgesetzt wird. Erst wenn dann der andere Wickel leer ist, wird das Zwillingswickel-Gestell 26 verschoben und die Motoren 44, 45 so wieder eingeschaltet, dass die Wickel ihre Funktion vertauschen.One of the advantages of the twin-wrap frame 26 in the present context can also be seen in the fact that it is not necessary to lift a full wrap out of the support frame 30. It is sufficient that the gripper in Fig. 4 as an embodiment of the transporter according to the US Pat. No. 3,955,667 shown conveyor A, B and C are controlled so that they no longer release the transported printed products Z at the relevant intersection and that the motor associated with this full winding is stopped. Only when the other winding is empty is the twin winding frame 26 shifted and the motors 44, 45 switched on again in such a way that the windings interchange their function.

Die beschriebene Einrichtung zeichnet sich durch eine ausgesprochene Flexibilität namentlich in grösseren Druckereien aus, weil sie praktisch ohne Umrüstzeiten zu erfordern die Produktion aus verschiedenen Druckerpressen gleichzeitig oder unmittelbar nacheinander verschieden weiteren Verarbeitungen zuführen kann.The device described is characterized by a pronounced flexibility, especially in larger printing plants, because it can carry out the production from different printing presses simultaneously or immediately one after the other in different processing operations practically without requiring changeover times.
