Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a handling device for loading plate cylinders for printing machines and in particular to such a device for web-fed rotary printing machines.
  • a device for the automatic assembly and disassembly of printing plates in a rotary printing press is known from US Pat. No. 4,727,807.
  • This device is provided with a plate magazine including a plate removal device and is placed in front of a printing unit. With the arm suspended via a parallelogram guide and the mechanical hand attached to it, the device in its rear position can grasp a printing plate removed from the plate magazine and apply it to the cylinder in its front position. Since the device is non-rotatably attached to a main part fastened to the floor or to a printing unit frame, it can only operate a single printing unit. The space required by such an arrangement can thus only be accepted in the case of small rotary printing presses, in particular those with a single printing unit.
  • Japanese patent JP 60-73850 discloses a device for mounting and dismounting printing plates in a rotary printing press that is movable on rails laid on the floor or attached to a printing unit frame.
  • the horizontally extending arm carrying the mechanical hand is movably mounted in the direction of its longitudinal axis, is height-adjustable along a vertically extending spindle and is rotatable about the axis of the spindle.
  • This device is therefore suitable for the optional operation of two printing units arranged next to one another.
  • the space requirement of the device due to the horizontal mobility is disadvantageous.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a handling device which can operate the plate cylinders of adjacent printing units without being restricted in terms of mobility by the course of the at least one printing material web guided through the printing units.
  • a robotic arm 2 can be moved back and forth in the direction of the axis of the guide 1 and pivotably about this axis on a vertical guide 1 and can be pivoted vertically by means of a first joint 3 attached to the guide 1 and which is divided by a second joint 4, a third joint 5 and a fourth joint 6 into a first section 7, a second section 8, a third section 9 and a fourth section 10, the fourth arm section 10 corresponding to the intended handling designed handling head 11.
  • Fig. 2 it is shown that the device of Fig. 1 is attached to the vertical guide 1 such that it can operate both a plate cylinder 17 of a left printing unit and a plate cylinder 16 of a right printing unit at approximately the same angular deflection.
  • the vertical guide is placed so that when the robot arm 2 is in the working position, there can be no contact with a printing material web 19 running between the adjacent printing units.
  • the arm 2 In order to move the arm 2 from the left plate cylinder 17 to the right plate cylinder 16, the arm 2 can either be placed vertically as a whole or additionally deflected in a second joint 4 by almost 180 °. Thus, even during the swiveling movement during which the arm 2 turns from one printing unit to the other, there is no risk of contact with the web 19.
  • the robot arm 2 is so long that it can reach the plate cylinder furthest from the vertical guide 1 in the extended position.
  • the robot arm 2 has in its fourth arm section 10 a handling head 11, which essentially consists of a suction rod 12 with suction cups 13 for gripping and holding the pressure plate and a rotary guide rod 14 attached to the suction rod 12, which is rotatably mounted in a sleeve-like arm element 15, consists.
  • the handling head 11 has a device 18 which is suitably designed for loading the plate cylinders 16, 17 and which can be used to insert and fasten the printing plate on the plate cylinder 16 or 17 and to detach the printing plate from the plate cylinder alone or together with one on the plate cylinder 16 or 17 provided device.
  • the device 18 can be designed, for example, as a mechanically actuable claw.
  • the joint 5 enables the suction rod 12 with the suction cups 13 to be brought into the horizontal independently of the spatial position of the other arm sections.
  • the joint 6 it is possible to set up the rotary guide rod 14 parallel to the axis of the plate cylinder 16 or 17. With the rotary guide rod and their storage in the arm element 15 makes it possible to adapt the pressure plate to the cylinder periphery.
  • the movements of the sections 7 to 10 of the robot arm 2 are hydraulically controlled in a manner known per se.
  • the actuating cylinders, hydraulic lines and fastening elements required for this, as well as the hydraulic fluid reservoir and the associated control device are not shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 for the sake of clarity.
  • a suitable interplay of the movements of the joints 3, 4 and 5 and the rotation of the rotary guide rod 14 makes it possible to set up the arm 2 in such a way that the plate cylinder facing the vertical guide 1 can be loaded.
  • a handling device constructed as described above, it is possible to load plate cylinders of a printing press, such as, for example, a rotary printing press used in newspaper printing, which is very labor-intensive and generally takes place under a certain time pressure, since the printing plates are sometimes only just prior to being up-to-date Printing start to be completed, to improve and in particular to make it at least partially automatable, so that not only time and personnel can be saved, but that the latest possible delivery date for the printing plates can be extended even further.
  • a printing press such as, for example, a rotary printing press used in newspaper printing
  • FIG. 3 shows, in a schematic side view, two printing units arranged adjacent to one another with a printing material web guided vertically in places between the two printing units and a handling device according to the invention arranged between the two printing units.
  • the plate cylinders of the two printing units are operated by the handling device without the movements of the robot arm 2 or the loading of the plate cylinders 16 and 17 being restricted by the course of the printing material web.
