Definitions

  • Such a device is described in DE-A 2 235 119 in an embodiment in which the hook between its front and its rear end position describes a path approximately cylindrical to the longitudinal axis defined by the bore, the bore itself being a cylindrical path to this axis Has a shape to constantly receive the hook, which at no time moves out of the slot.
  • the hooking of the rear end fold of the plate with the hook must therefore take place relatively far away from the outer peripheral surface of the support cylinder through the slot which connects the bore to the peripheral surface. This makes hooking work long and difficult, which could certainly be facilitated by the provision of a relatively wide slot, but at the cost of a correspondingly larger gap in printing.
  • the plate between the mouth of the slot and the outer circumferential surface of the support cylinder and the rear end fold which can be brought into engagement with the hook has an edge region which cannot be used for printing and which is relatively large, which leads to an oversizing of the plate with respect to the predetermined printing format leads.
  • JP-A-58 138 651 also relates to a device for fastening the printing plate to the printing cylinder of a rotary printing press.
  • two hooks supported on the articulated arms with flattened ends are moved by means of a shaft provided between the articulated arms.
  • the shaft is rotated - depending on the direction of rotation thereof - the front end of the printing form and then the rear end of the printing form can be attached and the printing form can then be clamped on the circumference of the cylinder.
  • the hooks which are provided with flats at the upper ends, require a fairly large channel gap and bend the printing form to be clamped inward at its start and end area, which disadvantageously leaves a relatively large, non-printing area on the cylinder circumference.
  • the object of the present invention is to avoid these disadvantages.
  • the object is achieved according to the features of patent claim 1.
  • the actuating means may include a longitudinal tension rod which is arranged in a bore of the support cylinder and which is rotatably guided about a longitudinal axis which is arranged between the axis of rotation of the support cylinder and the slot, and drive means, around the tension rod to reciprocate the axis of rotation with respect to the support cylinder between two end orientations corresponding to the front and rear end positions of the hook, and in that the hook-forming means include at least one longitudinal blade having a first end portion radially inner with respect to the axis of rotation of the support cylinder , which is fixedly connected to the tension rod inside the bore, and a second, longitudinal end region which is radially outside with respect to the axis of rotation of the support cylinder and which forms the hook, the blade between its first end region and its second end region ch is elastically deformable.
  • the drive means for the tension rod can be of any type, i.e. mechanical, electrical, hydraulic or pneumatic. According to a preferred embodiment, they contain means for elastically loading the tension rod in the direction of its end orientation corresponding to the rear end position of the hook, for example in the form of an inexpensive, particularly strong and easily adjustable torsion bar coaxial with the tension rod, and means which form a simple actuator, that loads the tension rod in a controlled manner towards its end orientation according to the front end position of the hook.
  • pneumatic means are preferred to the extent that they provide particularly simple, easy and reliable implementation, as will become clear below.
  • Moving the hook from its front end position, in which it projects beyond the outer circumferential surface of the support cylinder, to its rear end position, in which it is retracted into the interior of the slot, and at the same time the holding and tensioning of the pressure plate wound on the outer circumferential surface of the support cylinder causes can be carried out in a manner of operation which is comparable to winding the sheet onto the tension rod, with a small amplitude of the displacement of the hook in the circumferential direction of the support cylinder, ie for a small size of the slot.
  • the blade is behind the tensioning rod in the sense of the rotation of the support cylinder and along this between its first and its second edge zone.
  • the tension rod has a longitudinal nose which is arranged between its axis of rotation and the slot and which is supported freely with respect to the direction of rotation of the support cylinder on the sheet between its first edge zone and its second edge zone, which allowed the bending of the sheet between its first edge zone and its second edge zone and thereby the resulting on the outer peripheral surface of the support cylinder to amplify the resulting resulting tension, with a predetermined angle of rotation of the tension rod about the axis of rotation inside the bore, ie to obtain the generation of a predetermined tension with a small angle of rotation.
  • This allows the use of technically simpler and less complex drive means than those required by the device described in DE-A 22 35 119.
  • the assembly of the hook known from this document is necessarily associated with rotations of the tension rod over a large angle between its orientations corresponding to the respective front end position and rear end position of the hook.
  • the second end portion is displaced forward with respect to the direction of rotation of the support cylinder with respect to the first edge zone, which makes it possible to ensure that the plate is energized by a work which represents not only bending but also pulling at the same time, whereby much more favorable conditions are obtained than the working conditions of the sheet of the device described in DE-A 22 35 119, which are based exclusively on bending.
  • the slot is advantageously designed in such a way that it offers a forward support of the hook with respect to the direction of rotation of the support cylinder.
  • a preferred embodiment is characterized in that the slot is limited forwards with respect to the direction of rotation of the support cylinder with a front, longitudinal flank which is oriented with respect to the outer circumferential surface of the support cylinder in such a way that it adjoins the outer circumferential surface with respect to the direction of rotation of the support cylinder of the support cylinder before it is connected to the bore of the support cylinder.
  • the slot can also be limited rearward with respect to the direction of rotation of the support cylinder with a longitudinal rear flange which is inclined with respect to the outer circumferential surface of the support cylinder such that it adjoins this outer circumferential surface in the direction of rotation of the support cylinder before it is connected connects the bore of the support cylinder. This allows the front end fold of the plate to be hooked directly onto the transfer of the slot to the outer peripheral surface of the support cylinder.
  • leading flank and the trailing flank are at least approximately parallel to each other, which allows the width of the slot and consequently the resulting printing gap to be minimized.
  • the device according to the invention offers a common use with conventional devices which are provided in order to facilitate the winding of a printing plate on the outer circumferential surface of a carrying cylinder.
  • These devices usually contain a longitudinal, elastically compressible or elastically loaded to the outer circumferential surface of the support cylinder, which rests with the interposition of the pressure plate during winding on the outer circumferential surface of the support cylinder.
  • this roller causes the retraction of the hook originally protruding with respect to the outer circumferential surface of the support cylinder around the front end fold of the plate, which, moreover, is, for example, hung by a front end fold on the rear flank of the slot when the Preferred shape of the slot described below is referenced. This happens the moment the slot is in the immediate vicinity of the roll.
  • Fig. 1 shows a cross section along a plane II shown in Fig. 2 of a device embodying the invention to hold the rear edge of a printing plate which is wound in a tensioned state on the outer peripheral surface of a support cylinder, the hook being its rear end position in the absence of the printing plate.
