Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf Bogenanleger nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to sheet feeders according to the preamble of claim 1.

Ein solcher Bogenanleger, jedoch ohne Non-Stop-Einrichtung, ist für Bogendruckmaschinen aus der EP-A2 0 309 388 bekannt. über motorisch angetriebene, durch den Sensor gesteuerte Verstellglieder sind seitlich verstellbar angeordnete Führungen für die Vertikalbewegung des meistens auf einer an Ketten aufgehängten Stapelplatte angeordneten Stapeltisches wirksam, so daß der Stapeltisch entsprechend des vom Sensor erkannten seitlichen Versatzes der Bogenseite seitlich ausgerichtet wird. Das Verstellglied besteht aus einer drehbar an der Stapelplatte gelagerten und motorisch angetriebenen Spindel, die ein axial festgelegtes Muttergewinde durchsetzt. Eine Einrichtung zum seitlichen Ausrichten des Hauptstapels auf einem Stapeltisch in einem Bogenanleger ist auch aus der DE-OS 28 08 774 bekannt. Eine Einrichtung zum selbsttätigen Ausrichten wenigstens einer Seitenkante der Bogen im Hilfsstapel einer Non-Stop-Einrichtung aus an der Bogenvorderkante und an der Bogenhinterkante auf je einer querverlaufenden Schiene abgestützten Stange ist in der DE-PS 29 11 735 beschrieben. Auch diese Einrichtung besitzt einen die Lage der Bogenseite abtastenden Sensor, durch den Stellglieder zum seitlichen Ausrichten des Hilfsstapels gesteuert werden. Die Stellglieder bestehen ebenfalls aus einer Spindel und einer Gewindemutter, die in dieser Anordnung durch einen Elektromotor angetrieben wird. Bekannt ist hieraus auch die Anordnung von Führungen für die vertikale Bewegung des Hilfsstapels, jedoch sind diese vertikalen Führungen feststehend . Daß der Hauptstapel gesonderte Mittel zum selbsttätigen seitlichen Ausrichten aufweisen kann, wird in der Druckschrift nicht erwähnt.Such a sheet feeder, but without a non-stop device, is known for sheet printing machines from EP-A2 0 309 388. Via motor-driven adjustment elements controlled by the sensor, laterally adjustable guides are effective for the vertical movement of the stacking table, which is usually arranged on a stacking plate suspended from chains, so that the stacking table is laterally aligned according to the lateral offset of the sheet side detected by the sensor. The adjusting element consists of a motor-driven spindle which is rotatably mounted on the stacking plate and which passes through an axially fixed nut thread. A device for the lateral alignment of the main stack on a stacking table in a sheet feeder is also known from DE-OS 28 08 774. A device for automatically aligning at least one side edge of the sheet in the auxiliary stack of a non-stop device from a rod supported on the sheet leading edge and on the sheet trailing edge on a transverse rail is described in DE-PS 29 11 735. This device also has a sensor which scans the position of the sheet side, through which actuators for the lateral alignment of the auxiliary stack are controlled. The actuators also consist of a spindle and a threaded nut, which in this arrangement is driven by an electric motor. The arrangement of guides for the vertical movement of the auxiliary stack is also known from this, but these vertical guides are fixed. The publication does not mention that the main stack can have separate means for automatic lateral alignment.

Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen Bogenanleger, insbesondere für Bogendruckmaschinen, der die Gattungsmerkmale nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1 aufweist, in der Weise auszubilden, daß er eine selbsttätige Nachführung des Hauptstapels und des Hilfsstapels mit nur einer Verstelleinrichtung durchführt und eine seitliche Versetzung des Hauptstapels gegenüber dem Hilfsstapel bei laufender Maschine ermöglicht.It is an object of the invention to provide a sheet feeder, in particular for sheet-fed printing machines, which has the generic features according to the preamble of claim 1, in such a way that it carries out an automatic tracking of the main stack and the auxiliary stack with only one adjusting device and a lateral displacement of the main stack compared to the auxiliary stack while the machine is running.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erreicht die Erfindung durch eine Ausbildung mit den Merkmalen nach dem Kennzeichen des Patentanspruches 1.The invention achieves this object by training with the features according to the characterizing part of patent claim 1.

Erreicht wird durch diese Ausbildung das selbsttätige Ausrichten und Nachführen des Hauptstapels und des Hilfsstapels einer Non-Stop-Einrichtung durch eine einzige Verstelleinrichtung, wobei zusätzlich eine seitliche Ausrichtung des Hauptstapels gegenüber dem Hilfsstapel bei laufender Maschine möglich ist. Dies hat den Vorteil, daß der Hilfsstapel und gleichzeitig ein neu in den Anleger eingefahrener Hauptstapel durch die Bogeneinlaufsteuerung selbsttätig seitlich ausgerichtet werden. Der neue Hauptstapel kann anschließend justiert werden, um seine Lage auf den Hilfsstapel auszurichten, um beim Stapelwechsel einen störungsfreien übergang vom Hilfsstapel auf den neuen Hauptstapel zu ermöglichen.This configuration achieves the automatic alignment and tracking of the main stack and the auxiliary stack of a non-stop device by means of a single adjusting device, it also being possible for the main stack to be aligned laterally with respect to the auxiliary stack while the machine is running. This has the advantage that the auxiliary stack and, at the same time, a new main stack that has been inserted into the feeder are automatically aligned laterally by the sheet feed control. The new main stack can then be adjusted to align its position with the auxiliary stack, in order to enable a smooth transition from the auxiliary stack to the new main stack when changing the stack.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform eines Anlegers mit vertikalen Führungen für den Stapeltisch und vertikalen Führungen für die Non-Stop-Einrichtung ist vorgesehen, daß die Führungen für die Non-Stop-Einrichtung durch ein von der Bogeneinlaufsteuerung geregeltes Verstellglied mit festen Teilen des Maschinengestells verbunden und ein weiteres von Hand oder motorisch betätigtes Verstellglied zwischen der Führung für die Non-Stop-Einrichtung und der Führung für die vertikale Bewegung des Stapeltisches vorgesehen ist, um den seitlichen Abstand bei der Führungen verändern zu können.In a preferred embodiment of a feeder with vertical guides for the stacking table and vertical guides for the non-stop device, it is provided that the guides for the non-stop device are connected to and fixed to fixed parts of the machine frame by an adjusting element controlled by the sheet feed control another manually or motorized actuator between the guide for the non-stop device and the guide for the vertical movement of the stacking table is provided in order to be able to change the lateral distance in the guides.

Bei einer anderen Ausführungsart ist eine gemeinsame seitlich verstellbar angeordnete Führung vorgesehen, die durch ein von der Bogeneinlaufsteuerung geregeltes Verstellglied mit einem festen Gestellteil der Maschine verbunden ist und ein weiteres Stellglied unmittelbar auf der Stapelplatte montiert ist, um diese Stapelplatte seitlich gegenüber der gemeinsamen Führung zu verstellen.In another embodiment, a common laterally adjustable guide is provided, which is connected to a fixed frame part of the machine by an adjusting element controlled by the sheet feed control and a further actuator is mounted directly on the stacking plate in order to adjust this stacking plate laterally relative to the common guide .

Die Ansprüche 3 bis 4 enthalten weitere wesentliche Gestaltungsmerkmale des Erfindungsgedankens.Claims 3 to 4 contain further essential design features of the inventive concept.

Auf der Zeichnung sind Ausführungsbeispiele schematisch dargestellt, um das Lösungsprinzip der Erfindung besser hervorzuheben.Exemplary embodiments are shown schematically in the drawing in order to better emphasize the principle of solution of the invention.

In dem Ausführungsbeispiel der Figuren 1 und 2 ist zwischen den beiden Seitenteilen 1 ein Stapeltisch 2 für den Hauptstapel 3 auf einer Stapelplatte 4 angeordnet, welche zum Beispiel an Ketten aufgehängt ist, die mit einem Antrieb zur Ausführung der vertikalen Bewegungen der Stapelplatte und des darauf angeordneten Stapeltisches verbunden sind. Bei der vertikalen Bewegung wird die Stapelplatte in einer Führung 5 geführt, die seitlich beweglich angeordnet ist, um seitliche Ausrichtbewegungen des Hauptstapels 3 zu ermöglichen.In the embodiment of Figures 1 and 2 is a stacking table 2 for the between the two side parts 1 Main stack 3 arranged on a stacking plate 4, which is suspended, for example, on chains which are connected to a drive for executing the vertical movements of the stacking plate and the stacking table arranged thereon. During the vertical movement, the stacking plate is guided in a guide 5 which is arranged such that it can move laterally in order to enable lateral alignment movements of the main stack 3.

Die vordere Non-Stop-Schiene 6 und die auf der Zeichnung nicht dargestellte hintere Non-Stop-Schiene sind ebenfalls an einem auf der Zeichnung nicht dargestellten Kettenhubwerk angeordnet und dienen zur Abstützung der in Bogenlaufrichtung von hinten für den Non-Stop-Betrieb eingeschobenen Non-Stop-Stangen 7 zur Abstützung des Hilfsstapels 8. Die Non-Stop-Schienen 6 sind beidseitig in vertikalen Führungen 9 geführt, die ebenfalls seitlich beweglich angeordnet sind. Eine Gewindespindel 10 durchgreift eine an der Führung 9 befestigte Gewindemutter 11 und ist mit ihrem einen Ende axial festgelegt in der Seitenwand 1 des Gestells drehbar gelagert. Das andere Ende der Gewindespindel 10 ist mit einem von der Bogenlaufsteuerung geregelten Getriebemotor 12 verbunden. Eine weitere Gewindespindel 13 durchgreift eine an den vertikalen Führungen 5 für den Stapeltisch 2 befestigte Gewindemutter 14 und ist in einem an der Führung 9 angeordneten Radial/Axiallager 15 drehbar, jedoch in axialer Richtung unverschiebbar gelagert. Diese Gewindespindel 13 verbindet somit die vertikale Führung 5 für den Stapeltisch 2 mit der vertikalen Führung 9 für die vordere Non-Stop-Schiene 6, so daß der von der Bogeneinlaufsteuerung geregelte Getriebemotor 12 die Führungen 9 und 5 gemeinsam seitlich verstellt. Die hintere Non-Stop-Schiene (Hilfsstapelschiene) ist leicht seitlich verschiebbar gelagert und wird durch die Non-Stop-Stangen 7 und den darauf liegenden Stapel mit bewegt. Es ist auch möglich, daß eine starre Verbindung zwischen den beiden Non-Stop-Schienen vorgesehen ist. Über die durch ein Handrad 16 bzw. alternativ oder zusätzlich durch einen Motor 17 verdrehbare Gewindespindel 13 ist eine Verschiebung der vertikalen Führung 5 für den Stapeltisch 2 gegenüber der vertikalen Führung 9 für die Non-Stop-Schiene 6 durchführbar, so daß der Hauptstapel 3 einerseits über die Bogenlaufsteuerung und andererseits zusätzlich von Hand durch Betätigung des Handrades 16 oder des Getriebemotors 17 ausrichtbar ist.The front non-stop rail 6 and the rear non-stop rail, not shown in the drawing, are likewise arranged on a chain hoist, not shown in the drawing, and serve to support the non inserted in the sheet running direction from behind for non-stop operation -Stop rods 7 to support the auxiliary stack 8. The non-stop rails 6 are guided on both sides in vertical guides 9, which are also arranged laterally movable. A threaded spindle 10 passes through a threaded nut 11 fastened to the guide 9 and is axially fixed with one end in the side wall 1 of the frame so that it can rotate. The other end of the threaded spindle 10 is connected to a gear motor 12 controlled by the sheet travel control. Another threaded spindle 13 passes through a threaded nut 14 fastened to the vertical guides 5 for the stacking table 2 and is rotatable in a radial / axial bearing 15 arranged on the guide 9, but is non-displaceably mounted in the axial direction. This threaded spindle 13 thus connects the vertical guide 5 for the stacking table 2 with the vertical guide 9 for the front non-stop rail 6, so that the gear motor 12 controlled by the sheet inlet control adjusts the guides 9 and 5 laterally together. The rear non-stop rail (auxiliary stack rail) is mounted so that it can be moved laterally and is also moved by the non-stop rods 7 and the stack lying thereon. It is also possible to provide a rigid connection between the two non-stop rails. Via the by a handwheel 16 or alternatively or additionally by a motor 17 rotatable threaded spindle 13 is a displacement of the vertical guide 5 for the stacking table 2 relative to the vertical guide 9 for the non-stop rail 6, so that the main stack 3 on the one hand via the sheet travel control and on the other hand by pressing the Handwheel 16 or the gear motor 17 can be aligned.

Die Figur 2 zeigt ein Ausführungsbeispiel, bei dem die aus mehreren einzelnen Elementen zusammengesetzte Führung 9 in vertikaler Richtung als Führung sowohl für die Stapelplatte 4 als auch für die in dieser Zeichnungsfigur nicht dargestellte Non-Stop-Einrichtung wirksam ist. Eine querverlaufende Führungsleiste 18 ist durch einen Führungsbolzen 19 vertikal beweglich mit der Führung 9 verbunden. In einer schlitzförmigen Ausnehmung 20 der Führungsleiste 18 ist ein an der Stapelplatte 4 befestigter Gleitstein 21 horizontal beweglich, der eine Stufenausbildung hintergreift, so daß eine in Bogenlaufrichtung feste Verbindung zwischen der Führung 9 und der Stapelplatte 4 hergestellt wird. Diese Verbindung ist jedoch durch den Gleitstein 21 in der Ausnehmung 20 horizontal verschiebbar und durch den Führungsbolzen 19 auch vertikal beweglich. Die sich vertikal parallel zueinander erstreckenden Papieranschläge sind in den Zeichnungsfiguren mit 22 bezeichnet.FIG. 2 shows an exemplary embodiment in which the guide 9 composed of several individual elements is effective in the vertical direction as a guide both for the stacking plate 4 and for the non-stop device not shown in this drawing figure. A transverse guide bar 18 is vertically movably connected to the guide 9 by a guide pin 19. In a slot-shaped recess 20 of the guide bar 18, a sliding block 21 fastened to the stacking plate 4 is horizontally movable, which engages behind a step formation, so that a fixed connection in the direction of sheet travel is established between the guide 9 and the stacking plate 4. However, this connection is horizontally displaceable in the recess 20 by the sliding block 21 and also vertically movable by the guide pin 19. The paper stops extending vertically parallel to one another are designated by 22 in the drawing figures.

Eine vereinfachte Ausführungsform des Erfindungsgedankens ist in den Figuren 3 und 4 dargestellt. Hiernach ist nur eine vertikale Führung 9 vorgesehen, an der sowohl die über die Non-Stop-Stangen 7 den Hilfsstapel 8 tragenden Non-Stop-Schienen 6 als auch die den Hauptstapel 3 auf dem Stapeltisch 2 tragende Stapelplatte 4 geführt sind. Eine Gewindespindel 10 verbindet diese Führung 9 mit dem Seitenteil 1 des im übrigen nicht dargestellten Gestells. Sie durchgreift eine an der Führung 9 befestigte Gewindemutter 11 und ist durch einen von der Bogenlaufsteuerung geregelten Getriebemotor antreibbar. Eine weitere Gewindespindel 13 ist axial unverschieblich unmittelbar auf der Stapelplatte 4 drehbar gelagert und durchgreift das Gewinde einer Gewindemutter 14, welche fest mit der Führungsleiste 18 verbunden ist, deren in Bogenlaufrichtung feste Verbindung mit den Teilen der Führung 9 durch einen Führungsbolzen 19 hergestellt wird, wie es bereits zu der Figur 2 beschrieben wurde. Bei dieser Anordnung erfolgt eine seitliche Ausrichtbewegung über die Gewindespindel 10 sowohl des auf den Non-Stop-Schienen abgestützten Hilfsstapels als auch des auf dem Stapeltisch der Stapelplatte abgestützten Hauptstapels, jedoch ist dieser gegenüber dem Hilfsstapel durch Verdrehen der Gewindespindel 13 gegenüber dem Hilfsstapel zusätzlich seitlich ausrichtbar. Anstelle der in den Figuren 3 und 4 dargestellten Lagerung der Gewindespindel 13 auf der Stapelplatte 4 kann deren Lagerung auch unmittelbar an Teilen der Führung 9 erfolgen, so daß die von der Spindel durchsetzte Gewindemutter fest auf der Stapelplatte anzuordnen ist. Bei dieser vereinfachten Bauart ist zur Betätigung der Gewindespindel 13 anstelle eines Motors ein Handrad 16 vorgesehen.A simplified embodiment of the inventive concept is shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. According to this, only a vertical guide 9 is provided, on which both the non-stop rails 6 carrying the auxiliary stack 8 via the non-stop rods 7 and the stacking plate 4 carrying the main stack 3 on the stacking table 2 are guided. A threaded spindle 10 connects this guide 9 with the side part 1 of the frame, not shown in the rest. It passes through a threaded nut 11 attached to the guide 9 and is controlled by a control of the sheet travel control Geared motor can be driven. Another threaded spindle 13 is axially immovable directly rotatably mounted on the stacking plate 4 and engages through the thread of a threaded nut 14, which is firmly connected to the guide bar 18, the fixed connection in the direction of sheet travel is made with the parts of the guide 9 by a guide pin 19, such as it has already been described for FIG. 2. In this arrangement, a lateral alignment movement takes place via the threaded spindle 10, both of the auxiliary stack supported on the non-stop rails and of the main stack supported on the stacking table of the stacking plate, but this can also be aligned laterally relative to the auxiliary stack by rotating the threaded spindle 13 relative to the auxiliary stack . Instead of the mounting of the threaded spindle 13 on the stacking plate 4 shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, their mounting can also take place directly on parts of the guide 9, so that the threaded nut penetrated by the spindle is to be arranged firmly on the stacking plate. In this simplified design, a handwheel 16 is provided for actuating the threaded spindle 13 instead of a motor.
