Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a device with which the separation of the paper web is quick.
  • a first conveyor section 2 ends in a machine stand 1, with which a zigzag-folded paper web 3 (FIG. 3) is fed in a scale formation.
  • the paper web 3 passes over a deflecting roller 4, where it is deflected and falls into a vertical stacking shaft 5 and piled up therein to form a stack 6.
  • the deflection roller 4 is formed by a plurality of circular disks arranged next to one another on a shaft 4 ⁇ , around which the endless belts 2 ⁇ forming the conveying path are guided.
  • the shaft 4 ⁇ is driven by a motor M.
  • the stacking shaft 5 has guides 7, 7 ⁇ on opposite sides, which form vertical guide planes 8 and 9 in a side view according to FIG. 1.
  • the stack 6 forming in the stacking shaft 5 lies with its vertical sides containing the folds of the paper web against the guide planes 8, 9 on.
  • the guides 7 have in their lower region driven, endless belts, the mutually facing strands lying in the guide planes 8, 9 of which move downward and press the adjacent folds downward with a loose friction fit.
  • the distance of the guide 7 ⁇ from the guide 7 can be set according to the format to be processed. The same applies with respect to any side guides that form 2 vertical guide planes parallel to the conveying direction of the conveying path.
  • the stacking shaft 5 is delimited at the bottom by four parallel plates 10 spaced apart from one another, which have a circular segment shape at the top and form a cambered bearing surface 11 for the stack 6.
  • the apex of the support surface 11 runs transversely to the conveying direction of the conveyor path 2 or parallel to the guide planes 8, 9.
  • the cambered shape of the support surface 11 compensates for the height difference in the stack 6, which difference between the two stacked sides provided with the folds (which against the guide levels 8 and 9 lie) and the stack center results. Through this height compensation, those sheets of the paper web are aligned horizontally, which are in the area of the upper end of the guides 7 and 7 ⁇ .
  • the plates 10 are held by a cross piece 12, the ends of which are fastened to threaded sleeves 13.
  • the threaded sleeves 13 are screwed onto spindles 14 which can be driven by a motor M2.
  • the plates 10 can be displaced between an upper and a lower end position, as is indicated in FIG. 1 by dash-dotted lines. In the upper end position, the plates 10 are below, however, close to the displacement path of a separating knife 15, whereas in the lower end position they are below a removal path 16.
  • the separating knife 15 has an arrowed, blunt cutting edge 18. At least on its upper side, the separating knife 15 is provided with air outlet nozzles 17 which are connected via air ducts to a blown air source, not shown.
  • a pneumatic cylinder-piston unit 19 moves the separating knife 15 from its rest position shown in solid lines to an end position shown in dash-dotted lines, in which the cutting edge 18 lies beyond the stacking shaft 5.
  • the cutting knife 15 moves through slot-shaped openings 20 and 21 in the guide levels 8 and 9, respectively.
  • the described device works as follows. At the start of the stack formation, the plates 10 are in the upper end position, the separating knife 15 being withdrawn into the rest position. The paper web 3 transported in scale formation falls over the deflection roller 4 onto the in the top view convex bearing surface 11 and stacks between the guide planes 8 and 9. The plates 10 are now moved downwards by rotating the spindles 14, so that a stack 6 of the desired height is formed on the plates 10 between the guides 7 and 7 ' . The lowermost sheets of the stack hang laterally downwards, whereas the sheets located in the region of the displacement path of the separating knife 15 are aligned horizontally.
  • the cylinder-piston unit 19 is pressurized with compressed air, so that the separating knife 15 shoots forward and separates the stack 6 from the subsequent paper web along a fold.
  • the plates 10 are lowered to below the transport path 16 and the stack 6 formed is placed thereon and transported away.
  • the plates 10 are then moved upwards against the separating knife 15, on which the beginning of the next stack 6 has meanwhile formed.
  • the separating knife 15 is moved back and the new stack started on it is placed on the plates 10.
  • the air passing through the air outlet nozzles 17 forms an air cushion under the newly forming stack, so that the bottom sheet of the new stack does not shift during the return stroke of the separating knife 15.
  • the plates 10 are now continuously lowered again until the new stack has been completely formed, whereupon the separating knife 15 is actuated again and the process described is repeated.
  • the separating knife 15 has a flat hollow plate 22, the interior of which is connected to a compressed air source, not shown, for supplying the blown air nozzles 17.
  • the separating knife 15 is slidably mounted with four bearings 23 on two parallel guide rods 24 which are firmly connected to the machine stand 1.
  • the guide rods 24 are angled slightly in the top view (FIG. 5) to the conveying directions of the conveying sections 2 and 16.
  • the blunt cutting edge 18 of the cutting knife 15 forms a roller 25 which is rotatably mounted on the hollow plate 22 and is oriented at right angles to the guide rods 24.
  • This roller is driven by a motor M3 by means of a flexible shaft both during the advance and the return and in such a way that it rolls on the paper sheet above. That is, in the view according to FIGS. 1, 4 and 6, the roller rotates clockwise during the advance and counterclockwise during the return. This prevents the roller 25 from compressing the paper sheet located above it during the advance or pulling it out of the stack 6 during the return.
  • the roller 25 can be driven in any way, for example also by means of an end pinion which meshes with a stationary toothed rack which runs parallel along one of the guide rods 24.
  • a plunge wedge 26 is arranged in or near the displacement path of the separating knife 15 and can be moved back and forth by means of a pneumatic drive 27 in the direction of the double arrow shown in FIG.
  • the drive 27 is fixedly mounted on the machine stand 1.
  • An expansion wedge 28 is accommodated in the hollow and downwardly open piercing wedge 26, which is firmly connected to a pin which can be displaced vertically in the piercing wedge 26.
  • the expansion wedge 28 is moved up or down by means of an electromagnetic or pneumatic drive 30.
  • the piercing wedge 26 with the spreading wedge 28 drawn in is first inserted into the stack 6 on the side closer to the roller 25 and then the expanding wedge 28 is extended. As a result, the gap which forms in the stack 6 is spread further.
  • the expanding wedge 28 presses the underlying folds in the area of the downward-acting bands of the guides 7 ⁇ .
  • the hold-down device 31 is then pushed into this gaping gap.
  • the expanding wedge 28 is then pulled back into the starting position, the hold-down device prevents the paper from springing back.
  • the Plates 10 lowered further so that the stack 6 to be separated slowly moves downward from the paper sheets held back by the piercing wedge 26.
  • the cutting knife 15 is pushed across the stacking shaft 5 by the cylinder piston unit 19 until the cutting cut.
  • the roller 25 in the view according to FIG. 6 is driven clockwise. It rolls on the bottom of the paper sheets held back, which then lie on the air cushion forming above the nozzles 17 with little friction.
  • the piercing wedge 26 and the hold-down device 31 can be returned to their rest position.
  • the separating knife 15 is withdrawn under the stack which is newly formed thereon, the roller 25 preferably being driven in a counterclockwise direction.
  • the friction between the separating knife 15 and the paper sheet lying directly on it is so low that it does not adhere to the separating knife 15 and is pulled out of the stack with it.
  • Another significant difference from the first exemplary embodiment lies in the arrangement of the plates 10 forming the support surface 11. These are fastened to parallel support strips 33, which are fixedly connected to the transverse web 12, by means of a screw 34. This is through a vertical slot 35 passed through in the plate 10. By loosening the screws 34, the plates 10 can be adjusted vertically relative to the associated support bar 33 so that they protrude more or less.
  • the curvature imposed on the underside of the stack lying on it can thus be selected to a greater or lesser extent.
  • the adjustability of the curvature is advantageous if paper sheets of different stiffness are processed and nevertheless a horizontal alignment of the sheet layers is always to be achieved in the plane of the separating knife 15.
  • other means such as balls or rollers, may be present on the top of the separating knife 15 for reducing friction on its upper side, instead of the means for forming an air cushion, in order to achieve rolling friction.
