Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sorting device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the flat blanks can e.g. sheets of paper to be checked for certain quality features or errors, in particular high-quality papers, such as art paper, security papers for checks, bank notes or the like.
  • conveyor conversions are provided for optionally diverting individual blanks to three target stations from a single strand of blanks.
  • a similar diversion to two target stations is also the subject of PATENT ABSTRACTS OF JAPAN, vol. 12, no. 81 (M-676) March 15, 1988, & JP-A-62 222 950 (NEC CORP.) Provided September 30, 1987.
  • EP-A-247 408 shows an indexing sorting device, in which the conveyor changeover is first stopped and placed on a subsequent transport path.
  • the invention is also based on the object of avoiding disadvantages of known designs and, in particular, of creating a sorting device of the type mentioned or of a similar type, which makes it possible in a simple manner to separate cuts running in separate paths independently of one another according to predetermined criteria.
  • Such sorting devices expediently have at least one movement path for the individual successive blanks, which are distinguished optically or otherwise according to certain criteria during the run and are separated, for example, in such a way that blanks with certain characteristics are separated from at least one group which does not have such characteristics .
  • the blanks are at least initially moved in at least two adjacent lanes, it being possible for all lanes to be sorted simultaneously alongside one another.
  • Sorting devices can have the disadvantage that adjacent blanks only move together at the sorting point, e.g. can be sorted out, even if only one blank contains the corresponding characteristic. For this reason, the blanks that have been sorted out in this way must be manually sorted again in order to achieve a clear separation by category. E.g. sorted according to errors, a two-way procedure results in a reject that is increased by twice what is necessary if only one cut has errors per sorting process. The aforementioned sorting is complex, cost-intensive and prone to errors because it requires a high level of concentration.
  • means are provided in the area of the respective sorting point, which can be reversed in such a way that at least two of these blanks are either moved further in an essentially identical position to one another or are converted into a relative movement relative to one another, which causes a sorting process.
  • the sorting point is preferably formed by a switch which mechanically guides or deflects the cuts, this sorting switch is divided into separate individual switches for each of the said cuts or multiple groups of such cuts, the individual switches being reversible independently of one another in at least two switch positions.
  • the blanks mentioned can either be moved on in the same way according to the requirements or moved apart or in groups in accordance with one or more distinguishing features. If the sorting is used, for example, to remove rejects, only the faulty blanks can be sorted out and collected separately from the faultless blanks.
  • the embodiment described can be advantageous for solving the object on which the invention is based, or in addition, also for another switch, for example for a distribution switch which can divide the cutting stream into two or more further career sections by reversing.
  • a distribution switch which can divide the cutting stream into two or more further career sections by reversing.
  • means can be provided by which the blanks in the juxtaposed streams can be moved individually or in groups of juxtaposed blanks at different speeds, for example in such a way that a stream comes to a standstill while the other stream is running.
  • this is preferably achieved in that the associated transport path is divided into adjacent individual transport paths of corresponding width, these individual transport paths being driven or stopped more or less quickly independently of one another even though the two streams previously ran side by side.
  • At least one collecting station is expediently provided, in which the blanks are stacked on top of one another, for example in edge-flush stacks.
  • This collecting station or collecting stations are expediently provided in the running direction shortly after the distribution switch, an overlapping station advantageously being arranged immediately adjacent to the respective collecting station, in which the blanks which are initially moved one behind the other in the running direction initially overlap each other with the major part of their associated extent in a scale-like manner be placed. The transfer to the collection station then takes place from this overlap station.
  • means can also be provided for counting the blanks moving in the adjacent streams independently or separately, the relaxing counting result of the counting as a signal for the reversal the individual switches or for driving the individual transport tracks can be used. It is useful to count separately in each stream immediately after the sorting gate in the stream associated with each individual gate as well as immediately before being deposited in the collecting station. This makes it possible to determine whether one or more blanks have been lost or removed between the counting zones lying one behind the other in the running direction, which can be important in particular in the case of the processing of security papers.
  • the blanks After sorting, distributing or collecting, the blanks are moved laterally outwards, preferably in stacks by suitable means, transversely to the previously prevailing running direction, so that they can be transferred in a simple manner to a further transport device, the transport direction of which is preferably approximately parallel to the prevailing running direction .
  • the blanks or sheet stacks of separate collecting stations can be introduced one behind the other in the transport direction, these collecting stations being supplied with blanks by the common distribution switch.
  • the sorting device is particularly suitable for so-called sorting cross cutters, in which a web supplied from a store in the longitudinal direction thereof is first cut longitudinally to divide adjacent useful webs and optionally trimmed at its edges and then divided by cross cutting into the individual blanks lying next to one another.
  • This cross-cutting and, if necessary, the pulling apart of blanks in the running direction can be carried out directly in front of the sorting gate, with the individual diverters of which the blank to be discharged can then be led downwards out of the main track, while the blanks that cannot be discharged continue essentially straight through the sorting gate.
  • the test according to the criteria mentioned is expediently carried out shortly before the longitudinal cutting, the material web being checked separately on both sides of the respective dividing line defined by the longitudinal cut, so that the features mentioned can be recorded independently of one another on both sides of the dividing line.
  • a web inspection system is advantageously provided, which works according to the requirements in the reflected light or reflection or transmitted light method and whose test cells lying on both sides of the respective dividing line influence a separate control unit.
  • the individual switches or the individual transport tracks can be automatically controlled directly by these control units to achieve the effects described.
  • the individual switches of the distribution switch are expediently controlled via the separate counting devices of the above-mentioned counting zone.
  • the design according to the invention is also suitable for materials other than paper webs.
  • the device according to the invention can work according to a method in which at least two materials running side by side flow at least on at least one section of the respective individual track, the material streams coming from a common inlet can be driven differently, but side by side, with these common sections of the material streams Junction with at least two other similar sections is assigned so that the material flows can be continued independently and reversible at any time on one of the two branches to compensate for differences in quantity that result from the different flow of the adjacent material flows.
  • This allows the end of each branch distance accruing quantities of the material flows running side by side can be influenced independently of one another.
  • the ends of the branch lines are then expediently connected to a common outlet in such a way that the material quantities or stacks which have been collected from the respective material stream in the respective branch line are fed to the outlet in succession.
  • a sorting device two narrow, for example single-use, separate sorting devices can be placed directly next to one another and their overlapping or collecting stations can be connected to the common outlet via common transverse transport devices and possibly at least one lifting device.
  • the drawing shows a sorting device according to the invention as part of a sorting cutter in a partially simplified perspective view.
  • the subject matter of the invention has a sorting device 1, with which those cuts produced by the cutting device which have been recognized as rejects are discharged from further processing and fed to a reject stack while the remaining blanks are conveyed for further processing and are initially overlapped in different planes and collected in a number of stacks which is an integral multiple of the number of usable widths 4, 5 produced by the cutting device.
  • a test device 7 is initially provided, which, for example, has a test head located above the conveyor track 3, each with at least one test unit 8 for each useful width 4, 5 has, so that can be checked independently on each panel.
  • the testing device 7 is followed in the conveying direction arrow 6 by a slitter 9, which divides the material or paper web 14 running on the conveying track 3 in the middle with a longitudinal section, so that two single tracks running side by side are formed.
  • Edge trimmers are expediently provided laterally adjacent to the longitudinal cutter 9 and are used to cut the paper web 14 to the desired width dimension on the longitudinal edges.
  • the slitter 9 and the edge trimmers are followed, for example, by a web feed device 10 having two superimposed transport rollers, with which the paper web 14 is pulled off a paper roll and moved by the testing device 7 or the cross cutter 9.
  • the conveyor track is not through conveyor belts, but through free-running rollers, support plates or the like. educated.
