Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for wire stitching multi-part printed products, in particular newspapers, magazines, brochures and the like, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • DE-A-32 03 376 describes a stapling device in which the products to be stapled are passed between the respective cooperating staple setting elements and staple bending elements.
  • the clamp setting elements and the clamp bending elements are each fastened to an endless, continuously driven chain, one strand of which runs parallel to the direction of movement of the products and adjacent to the movement range of the latter.
  • the staple setting elements and the staple bending elements opposite the latter during the stapling process run synchronously with the products during stapling.
  • a further concentricity is provided, which is formed by patrices attached to an endless, rotating chain.
  • a wire section dispenser Arranged on the orbit of these patrices is a wire section dispenser, which dispenses a straight piece of wire to the patrix which is advantageous in each case. The latter is bent when a patrix meets a clip-setting element acting as a matrix to form a U-shaped clip that extends from the clip-setting element to the stitching area transported and pressed into a product there.
  • This stapling device is of relatively complex construction, three round runs are necessary, namely one for the male pieces feeding the straight wire pieces, one for the clip-setting elements which cooperate with the latter to form the clips and press the clips into the products, and one for the clip bending elements. Furthermore, the brackets are only set along a direction in the direction of movement of the products.
  • US-A-4,792,077 describes a simplified embodiment of the device explained above, in which only two chain runs are provided.
  • the chains of the concentric runs are guided over deflection wheels and lie opposite each other with a section lying between the deflection wheels.
  • the chain of a chain run runs past a wire section dispenser, with certain chain links being passed straight wire sections which extend in the direction of rotation of the chain.
  • the products to be stapled are fed to the two chain runs by means of a feed conveyor and are inserted between the two opposite sections of the two chain runs and are bent in the manner of a gable roof.
  • the products are then transported further by clamping between the links of the two chain circuits. The latter take on the dual task of setting the wire clamps and moving them forward.
  • the wire clips are placed along these fold lines in the longitudinal direction of the products. If a product is provided with two clips, the wire clips for a product are set one after the other.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a device for wire stitching of multi-part printed products of the type mentioned, which allows simple construction, both as individual products and webs present printed products reliably and properly across the direction of the forward movement of the stapled To staple products.
  • the device according to the invention is particularly suitable for stapling webs or individual products in the fold delivery of a rotary printing press.
  • FIG. 1 two variants of a first embodiment of a wire stitching device are shown in a side view and purely schematically.
  • the variant according to FIG. 1 is used for stapling printed products fed in the form of a web, while the variant according to FIG. 2 is intended for stapling individually fed printed products.
  • a stapling head arrangement 1 and a staple closing arrangement 2 cooperating therewith are provided, between which the linear movement path 3 of the printed products 4 to be stapled, such as newspapers, magazines, brochures and the like, runs through.
  • the individual printed products 4 are part of a web W and, after stapling, are separated from one another along the cutting lines 5.
  • the printed products 4 are passed individually along the movement path 3 between the stitching head arrangement 1 and the staple closing arrangement 2.
  • a conveyor arrangement 6 is provided, which is shown in FIG. 1 as a pair of conveyor rollers.
  • the stitching head arrangement 1 has stitching heads 7 which are spaced apart from one another on an endless traction element 8, e.g. a chain is fastened, which is guided over two deflection members 9 and 10 designed as deflection wheels and driven in the direction of arrow B all round.
  • the strand 8a of the chain 8 facing the movement spell 3 of the printed products 4 runs approximately parallel to the direction of movement A of the web W. This means that the circulation spell U of the stitching heads 7 has a section which runs parallel to the movement path 3 of the printed products 4.
  • a wire section dispensing unit 11 is arranged which is common to all of the stitching heads 7, which is arranged at this orbit U and transfers a straight piece of wire to the passing stitching head 7, which piece is bent into a U-shaped clamp during the subsequent further movement of the stitching head 7 will, as will be explained later.
  • the clamp closing arrangement 2 arranged below the movement path 3 of the printed products 4 has a number of counter supports 12 which are provided with a closing arrangement (not shown in more detail) for bending the legs of the wire clips.
  • the counter supports 12 are also fastened to a traction element 13 designed as a chain, which is guided over deflection elements 14 and 15 (deflection wheels).
  • the chain 13 and thus the counter supports 12 are driven in a rotating manner in the direction of the arrow C.
  • the strand 13a of the chain 13 facing the movement path 3 of the printed products 4 runs essentially parallel to this movement path 3.
  • the orbit V of the counter-supports 12 thus likewise has a section which runs parallel to the movement path 3 of the printed products 4.

  • the wire clip formed in the stitching head 7, as already mentioned, is pressed into the multi-layer printed product 4 to be stitched, the legs of the wire clip being bent over by the counter support 12 which moves along. Since the stapling heads 7 and the counter supports 12 move synchronously with the staple 4 during stapling, a certain amount of time is available for the stapling process, which enables perfect stapling.
  • the wire clips are set in the direction of later fold lines 16, which run at right angles to the direction of movement A of the printed products 4.
  • at least two staples are placed along this later fold line 16, which means that a second stapling head arrangement and a second staple closing arrangement of the type shown are provided, which is not visible in FIG. 1.

Above this belt conveyor 17 is in front of the stapling station a conveyor belt 18 is provided, which comes to rest on the upper side of the printed products 4. In the variant according to FIG. 2, the stapling process takes place in the same way as was described with reference to FIG. 1.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 differs from the first embodiment according to FIGS. 1 and 2 by a different design of the clamp locking arrangement 2.
  • the counter supports 12 provided with locking arrangements are arranged on the circumference of a drum 19, which is driven circumferentially in the direction of arrow C.
