Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for processing, in particular for inserting, collating or collecting printed products, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Such a device with a cellular wheel driven in rotation about a circumferential axis with compartments running in the direction of the circumferential axis is known, for example, from CH-PS 575,303 or the corresponding US Pat. No. 4,058,202.
  • a carriage with controllable clamps is assigned to each compartment, which carries out a conveying and a return stroke in the course of one revolution of the cell wheel.
  • feed points are provided one behind the other, at which printed products are introduced into the compartments and the trolleys are handed over for further transport to the next feed point or to the removal point arranged at the end of the cell wheel in the direction of the conveying stroke.
  • a shaft running in the longitudinal direction of the compartments is pivotally mounted on each carriage, to which the clamping tongues of the clamps are resiliently attached.
  • the shaft has an actuating member protruding radially towards the inside, which, when the carriage is stationary in the direction of the conveying stroke, runs onto a stationary closing link at the beginning of the conveying stroke, as a result of which the shaft is pivoted and the clamping tongues are transferred from their open position to the closing position.
  • a freewheel which is operatively connected to the shaft prevents the shaft from pivoting back against the open position of the clamping tongues.
  • the brackets can be controlled independently of the movement or the position of the carriage. In addition to a simple mechanical structure, this also allows the same device to be used in a wide variety of ways, for example for inserting, collating and collecting printed products. It should be noted here that only a single processing route or multiple processing routes can be provided, along which the printed products are transported.
  • a particularly simple embodiment of the control device when viewed in the direction of movement of the carriage, has stationary control means, by means of which control means, regardless of the position and speed of the carriage, the closing or opening commands can be transmitted to the brackets.
  • a particularly simple control device is defined in claim 2.
  • the control means is displaceable transversely to the direction of movement of the carriage and the actuator for the clamps arranged on the carriage is guided on it.
  • the actuator can thus be operated in a simple manner regardless of the position of the car.
  • a preferred embodiment for the storage and actuation of the control means or the rail is specified in claim 9.
  • a particularly high processing capacity can be achieved if, according to claim 11, a cellular wheel is equipped with carriages which have clamps which can be controlled by means of the control device, independently of the movement and position of the carriages.
  • the brackets can be controlled in a particularly simple manner in that each rail section is operatively connected to a follower which slides on a stationary link, the brackets being able to be influenced solely as a function of the rotational position of the cellular wheel.
  • the possible uses and adjustability of the cellular wheel can be improved in that this backdrop is interchangeable with another backdrop, or in that its position or shape can be changed.
