Description

L'invention concerne un dispositif de réglage de la position d'une butée de pliage agencée de façon translatable sur une plaque de guidage d'un document à plier.The invention relates to a device for adjusting the position of a folding stop arranged in a translatable manner on a guide plate of a document to be folded.

Ce dispositif est en particulier destiné au réglage des dimensions de pliage dans une plieuse à deux poches.This device is in particular intended for adjusting the folding dimensions in a folder with two pockets.

Il est déjà connu un dispositif de réglage des butées d'une plieuse de grande dimension et de grande cadence qui consiste en un agencement de réglettes. Chaque réglette porte la butée et peut être manuellement translatée dans des rails agencés sur les bords longitudinaux des plaques de guidage des documents. Par son déplacement et son blocage dans la position souhaitée, est donc réalisé le réglage de la butée.There is already known a device for adjusting the stops of a large bending machine with a high rate which consists of an arrangement of strips. Each strip carries the stop and can be manually translated into rails arranged on the longitudinal edges of the document guide plates. By moving and locking it in the desired position, the stop is therefore adjusted.

Ce type de dispositif nécessite une place libre suffisante pour accèder aux réglettes. Or dans les plieuses compactes et de dimension moyenne, l'encombrement est tel qu'il est impossible ou difficile d'accèder avec la main au niveau de la butée.This type of device requires sufficient free space to access the crimps. However, in compact and medium-sized folders, the size is such that it is impossible or difficult to access with the hand at the level of the stop.

De plus ces plieuses sont souvent associées à des mécanismes d'insertion du document dans une enveloppe et de fermeture de l'enveloppe qui nécessitent de la place dans la machine et diminuent la possibilité d'accès aux différentes parties de la plieuse.In addition, these folders are often associated with mechanisms for inserting the document in an envelope and for closing the envelope, which require space in the machine and reduce the possibility of access to the various parts of the folder.

Une plieuse à poches est décrite dans la demande de brevet française 90 13580. Une telle plieuse comprend une poche supérieure destinée à la réalisation du premier pli et une poche inférieure destinée à la réalisation du second pli. Chaque poche comporte une plaque fixe et une plaque mobile.A pocket folder is described in French patent application 90 13580. Such a folder comprises an upper pocket intended for the production of the first fold and a lower pocket intended for production of the second fold. Each pocket has a fixed plate and a movable plate.

Les plaques mobiles supportent chacune une butée réglable par translation le long de chaque poche pour choisir la position ou premier et du second pli sur le document. Une telle plieuse est destinée à être complétée d'un mécanisme d'insertion dans une enveloppe et de fermeture de l'enveloppe.The mobile plates each support an adjustable stop by translation along each pocket to choose the position or first and second fold on the document. Such a folder is intended to be completed with a mechanism for insertion into an envelope and for closing the envelope.

Il est aussi connu du document EP-A-0 157 349 un dispositif de réglage de la position d'une butée de pliage qui comprend un dispositif d'actionnement et un dispositif de transmission du déplacement du dispositif d'actionnement à la butée constitué d'un câble en boucle engageant des poulies, une partie droite du câble étant parallèle à un bord latéral d'une plaque de guidage d'un document à plier et reliée à la butée et une autre partie du câble étant reliée au dispositif d'actionnement. Le dispositif d'actionnement est constitué par un arbre disposé parallèlement au bord avant de la plaque et qui entraîne, par rotation, une des poulies. Des molettes sont prévues aux extrémités de l'arbre pour permettre la manoeuvre de celui-ci en rotation.It is also known from document EP-A-0 157 349 a device for adjusting the position of a folding stop which comprises an actuating device and a device for transmitting the displacement of the actuating device to the stop consisting of '' a looped cable engaging pulleys, a straight part of the cable being parallel to a lateral edge of a guide plate of a document to be folded and connected to the stop and another part of the cable being connected to the actuating device . The actuating device consists of a shaft arranged parallel to the front edge of the plate and which drives, by rotation, one of the pulleys. Thumbwheels are provided at the ends of the shaft to allow it to be rotated.

Un dispositif de réglage analogue est encore décrit dans le document FR-A-1 564 392.A similar adjustment device is also described in document FR-A-1 564 392.

Le but de l'invention est de proposer un dispositif de réglage de la position des butées dans une plieuse à poches qui soit d'accès et de manoeuvrabilité particulièrement pratique et fiable.The object of the invention is to propose a device for adjusting the position of the stops in a pocket folder which is particularly practical and reliable for access and maneuverability.

A cet effet l'invention a pour objet un dispositif comme défini par la revendication 1.To this end the invention relates to a device as defined by claim 1.

En particulier, selon l'invention, le dispositif de réglage comprend un dispositif d'actionnement et un dispositif de transmission du déplacement du dispositif d'actionnement à la butée, constitué d'un câble en bouche maintenu tendu par trois poulies portées par la plaque, une partie droite du câble étant parallèle au bord lateral de la plaque et reliée à la butée et une autre partie droite du câble étant reliée au dispositif d'actionnement.In particular, according to the invention, the adjustment device comprises an actuation device and a device for transmitting the displacement of the actuation device to the stop, consisting of a cable in the mouth kept stretched by three pulleys carried by the plate , a straight part of the cable being parallel to the lateral edge of the plate and connected to the stop and another straight part of the cable being connected to the actuating device.

Ainsi par un positionnement judicieux du dispositif d'actionnement, ce dernier est facilement accessible et la transmission est particulièrement fiable et simple.Thus, by judicious positioning of the actuating device, the latter is easily accessible and the transmission is particularly reliable and simple.

Du fait que le dispositif d'actionnement est disposé sur une tablette fixe par rapport à la plaque et disposée parallèlement au bord avant de la plaque, un réglage manuel du pliage est possible, la ou les tablette(s) étant particulièrement visible(s) et accessible(s) à l'ouverture de la plieuse.Due to the fact that the actuating device is arranged on a fixed shelf with respect to the plate and arranged parallel to the front edge of the plate, manual folding adjustment is possible, the tablet (s) being particularly visible and accessible at the opening of the folder.

Si le dispositif d'actionnement est un micro-moteur relié au câble, il est possible de réaliser un réglage motorisé de la butée.If the actuating device is a micro-motor connected to the cable, it is possible to carry out a motorized adjustment of the stop.

Ce micro-moteur peut être commandé directement à partir du clavier de la machine et le réglage ne nécessite pas l'ouverture de la machine.This micro-motor can be controlled directly from the machine keyboard and the adjustment does not require opening the machine.

Le dispositif conforme à l'invention est en particulier destiné à équiper une plieuse à deux poches telle que décrite dans la demande de brevet française 90 13580. En particulier, les deux dispositifs d'actionnement peuvent être diposés sur une tablette commune fixe par rapport aux deux plaques des poches et disposée parallèlement au bord avant de chaque plaque.The device according to the invention is in particular intended to equip a folding machine with two pockets as described in French patent application 90 13580. In particular, the two actuating devices can be placed on a common shelf fixed relative to the two pocket plates and arranged parallel to the front edge of each plate.

L'invention est exposée ci-après plus en détail à l'aide de dessins représentant seulement un mode d'exécution.The invention is set out below in more detail with the aid of drawings representing only one embodiment.

La figure 1 représente en développée une vue frontale des plaques de deux poches d'une plieuse équipées chacune d'un dispositif de réglage conforme à l'invention.Figure 1 shows a developed front view of the plates of two pockets of a folder each equipped with an adjustment device according to the invention.

La figure 2 représente une coupe selon II-II à plus grande échelle, les plaques étant représentées selon leur disposition réelle.Figure 2 shows a section on II-II on a larger scale, the plates being shown according to their actual arrangement.

La figure 3 représente une vue de dessous selon III du dispositif de transmission équipant la plaque de la poche supérieure.FIG. 3 represents a bottom view along III of the transmission device fitted to the plate of the upper pocket.

La figure 1 est une vue en développée, pour une meilleure visualisation, représentant la plaque inférieure 5 de la première poche et la plaque supérieure 22 de la seconde poche d'une plieuse. La disposition réelle de ces plaques 5 et 22 est représentée sur la figure 2.Figure 1 is a developed view, for better viewing, showing the lower plate 5 of the first pocket and the upper plate 22 of the second pocket of a folder. The actual arrangement of these plates 5 and 22 is shown in FIG. 2.

Selon l'exemple représenté, ces deux plaques sont reliées latéralement par deux flasques 18, dont un est visible sur la figure 2. Sur ces flasques 18 est fixée latéralement une tablette 100 supportant le dispositif d'actionnement du dispositif de réglage 40 de la butée 4 de la première poche et celui du dispositif de réglage 60 de la butée 20 de la seconde poche. Ces deux dispositifs sont de constitution identique.According to the example shown, these two plates are laterally connected by two flanges 18, one of which is visible in Figure 2. On these flanges 18 is fixed laterally a shelf 100 supporting the actuating device of the adjustment device 40 of the stop 4 of the first pocket and that of the adjustment device 60 of the stop 20 of the second pocket. These two devices are of identical constitution.

Dans le cas d'un agencement différent des plaques 5 et 22 et de façon plus générale, les plaques 5 et 22 peuvent être pourvue chacune de leur tablette 100 propre, l'une étant fixe par rapport à la plaque 5 et l'autre étant fixe par rapport à la plaque 22.In the case of a different arrangement of the plates 5 and 22 and more generally, the plates 5 and 22 may each be provided with their own shelf 100, one being fixed relative to the plate 5 and the other being fixed relative to plate 22.

Chaque butée 4, 20 est montée coulissante sur un axe 41, 61 fixé par ses extrémités sur la plaque correspondante 5, 22. La butée 4, 20 fait saillie par une plaquette sur la face active de la plaque 5, 22 au travers d'une fente agencée dans celle-ci.Each stopper 4, 20 is slidably mounted on an axis 41, 61 fixed by its ends on the corresponding plate 5, 22. The stopper 4, 20 protrudes by a plate on the active face of the plate 5, 22 through a slot arranged therein.

La butée 4, 20 est fixée à un câble 42, 62 en bouche, ses extrémités étant reliées l'une à l'autre avec un ressort 43, 63 interposé afin d'obtenir une tension correcte. Le câble 42, 62 est enroulé sur trois poulies 44, 64 disposées de telle sorte qu'une partie du câble est parallèle à la trajectoire de la butée, soit parallèle aux bords latéraux de la plaque et qu'une autre partie du câble est parallèle au bord avant de la plaque et à proximité de celui-ci.The stop 4, 20 is fixed to a cable 42, 62 in the mouth, its ends being connected to each other with a spring 43, 63 interposed in order to obtain a correct tension. The cable 42, 62 is wound on three pulleys 44, 64 arranged so that part of the cable is parallel to the path of the stop, is parallel to the lateral edges of the plate and another part of the cable is parallel at the front edge of the plate and close to it.

A cette seconde partie droite de câble est fixé le dispositif d'actionnement du dispositif de transmission constitué par le système de câble et de poulies.To this second straight cable part is fixed the actuation device of the transmission device constituted by the cable and pulley system.

Le dispositif d'actionnement comporte un coulisseau 45, 65. Ce dernier coulisse sur un axe 46, 66 fixé à la plaque, parallèlement à son bord avant et à proximité de celui-ci. Le coulisseau 45, 65 est par ailleurs guidé par une partie proéminente 67 dans une fente 48, 68 agencée dans la tablette 100.The actuating device comprises a slide 45, 65. The latter slides on an axis 46, 66 fixed to the plate, parallel to its front edge and close to it. The slide 45, 65 is moreover guided by a protruding part 67 in a slot 48, 68 arranged in the shelf 100.

Le coulisseau 45, 65 comporte une partie interne 69 qui est articulée sur la partie principale du coulisseau. Cette partie 69 vient ensérer l'axe 46, 66 sous l'action d'une vis de pression 50, 70.The slide 45, 65 has an internal part 69 which is articulated on the main part of the slide. This part 69 fits the axis 46, 66 under the action of a pressure screw 50, 70.

Dans la fente 48, 68 sont prévues deux tenons de butée 51, 71 mobiles pouvant être positionnés manuellement. Au droit du coulisseau 45, 65 qui comporte un repère est disposée une graduation.In the slot 48, 68 are provided two movable abutment pins 51, 71 which can be positioned manually. To the right of the slide 45, 65 which has a mark is arranged a graduation.

L'utilisation des dispositifs de réglage est le suivant.The use of the adjustment devices is as follows.

Le dispositif 40 est destiné au réglage de la longueur du premier pli du document et le dispositif 60 au réglage de la longueur du second pli du document.The device 40 is intended for adjusting the length of the first fold of the document and the device 60 for adjusting the length of the second fold of the document.

Pour chaque dispositif de réglage, deux pré-sélections sont possibles grâce aux tenons de butée 51, 71. Lorsque l'utilisateur est intéressé principalement par deux longueurs de pli, les deux tenons 51, 71 sont réglés avant fourniture de la plieuse. Ainsi l'utilisateur n'a qu'à déplacer le coulisseau 45, 65 afin qu'il vienne buter sur l'un ou l'autre des tenons 51, 71.For each adjustment device, two preselections are possible thanks to the abutment pins 51, 71. When the user is mainly interested in two fold lengths, the two pins 51, 71 are adjusted before supplying the folder. Thus the user only has to move the slide 45, 65 so that it comes to abut on one or the other of the pins 51, 71.

Dans le cas d'un réglage différent, le repère du coulisseau est amené à la position souhaitée sur la graduation correspondante.In the case of a different setting, the slide marker is brought to the desired position on the corresponding scale.

Le déplacement du coulisseau se fait par deserrage de la vis de pression 50, 70, translation du coulisseau puis reserrage de la vis 50, 70, la partie interne articulée, 69 venant alors serrer l'axe 46, 66 et bloquer le coulisseau.The displacement of the slide is done by loosening the pressure screw 50, 70, translation of the slide then tightening of the screw 50, 70, the articulated internal part, 69 then tightening the axis 46, 66 and blocking the slide.

Le déplacement du coulisseau 45, 65 vers la droite ou la gauche entraîne un déplacement vers l'avant ou l'arrière de la butée 4, 20 correspondante et ainsi la diminution ou l'augmentation de la longueur du pli correspondant au document.The displacement of the slide 45, 65 to the right or the left causes a displacement towards the front or the rear of the corresponding stop 4, 20 and thus the reduction or the increase in the length of the fold corresponding to the document.

Selon une variante de réalisation, le dispositif d'actionnement manuel décrit ci-dessus peut être remplacé ou complété par un dispositif d'actionnement motorisé. Dans ce cas un micro-moteur associé à un capteur est installé de préférence sur la plaque. Par un mécanisme adéquat la rotation du moteur est transformée en translation du câble qui transmet le déplacement à la butée.According to an alternative embodiment, the manual actuation device described above can be replaced or supplemented by a motorized actuation device. In this case, a micro-motor associated with a sensor is preferably installed on the plate. By an adequate mechanism the rotation of the motor is transformed into translation of the cable which transmits the displacement to the stop.
