Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum maschinellen Abpressen von eingespannt gehaltenen gerundeten Buchblocks mittels eines eine konkave Wirkfläche aufweisenden Preßbalkens, der auf den Buchblockrücken mit einer Preßkraft einwirkt, wobei ein Lager mit einem den Preßbalken aufnehmenden Tragteil Verwendung findet, das über Antriebsmittel auf einer Bogenbahn abwechselnd zu der einen und anderen Seite des Buchblockrückens zum Umlegen der Druckbogen in den Seitenbereichen des Buchblockrückens schwenkbar ist.The invention relates to a device for the mechanical pressing of clamped, rounded book blocks by means of a concave active surface having a press beam which acts on the back of the book block with a pressing force, a bearing with a supporting part accommodating the press beam being used, which alternately via drive means on an arch path one and the other side of the book block spine is pivotable for folding the printed sheets in the side areas of the book block spine.
Durch den Arbeitsgang Abpressen wird dem gerundeten Buchblock die gewünschte und der Einbandart entsprechende Rückenform verliehen, die von einem im rückennahen Bereich des Buchblocks vorgesehenen Falz bestimmt wird, wobei dieser entweder als tiefer oder als schräger Falz ausgebildet sein kann.The pressing operation gives the rounded book block the desired back shape which corresponds to the type of cover, which is determined by a fold provided in the area of the book block near the back, which can be designed either as a deep or as an oblique fold.
Zur Durchführung des Arbeitsgangs Abpressen finden in der industriellen Buchfertigung Buchrunde- und Abpreßmaschinen Verwendung, in denen der dem Buchrückenrundevorgang folgende Abpreßvorgang von einem sich über die gesamte Rückenbreite hin- und herbewegenden Formstück ausgeführt wird, wodurch unter Anwendung von Druck und Reibung die gefalzten Druckbogen von der Mitte des Buchblockrückens nach beiden Seiten hin umgelegt werden, und zwar unter einem nach außen hin zunehmenden Winkel. Somit erhält der Buchblock seine pilzartige Rückenform sowie gleichzeitig seine Rückenstabilisierung.To carry out the pressing operation, book rounding and pressing machines are used in industrial book production, in which the pressing process following the book spine rounding process is carried out by a shaped piece which moves back and forth over the entire width of the back, whereby the folded printed sheets are applied by the pressure and friction The middle of the spine of the book block must be folded over on both sides, at an angle that increases towards the outside. This gives the book block its mushroom-like back shape as well as its back stabilization.
Eine Buchrunde- und Abpreßmaschine mit einem auf den Buchblockrücken einwirkenden, sich hin- und herbewegenden Formstück ist beispielsweise in der DE-OS 15 36 507 dargestellt und beschrieben.A book rounding and pressing machine with a piece which acts on the back of the book block and moves back and forth is shown and described, for example, in DE-OS 15 36 507.
Bekanntlich weist die traditionelle Rundeform des Buchrückens eine Vielzahl von Radien auf. Um den Büchern bzw. Buchblocks diese gewünschte Rückenform zu geben, müssen beim Abpreßvorgang dem jeweiligen Rückenradius angepaßte Formstücke eingesetzt werden. Ein Anpassen der Formstücke an den jeweiligen Rückenradius läßt sich aufgrund der Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Radien im Hinblick auf die Lagerhaltung und insbesondere auf die hohen Umrichtzeiten nur in einem begrenzten Rahmen ermöglichen. Bei stärkerer Abweichung zwischen dem Formstück mit seiner konkaven Wirkfläche und dem Rückenradius besteht bei Druckbogen mit geringer Biegesteifigkeit und bei nicht hinterklebten Buchblocks, d. h. bei lediglich beleimten, einen hohen Reibwert aufweisenden Blocks, die Gefahr, daß bei der Rückbewegung des Formstückes ein Mitreißen der nach den Seiten hin umgelegten äußeren Druckbogen eintritt, was zum Einknicken der Druckbogen führen kann und somit zu einer Beeinträchtigung der Abpreßqualität des Buchblocks.As is well known, the traditional round shape of the spine has a multitude of radii. In order to give the books or book blocks this desired back shape, shaped pieces adapted to the respective back radius must be used during the pressing process. An adaptation of the fittings to the respective back radius can only be made possible to a limited extent due to the large number of different radii with regard to storage and in particular the high changeover times. If there is a greater deviation between the shaped piece with its concave active surface and the back radius, there is a low bending stiffness in the case of printed sheets and in the case of book blocks which are not glued behind, i.e. H. in the case of only glued blocks with a high coefficient of friction, there is the risk that, when the shaped part moves back, the outer printed sheets folded over to the side will be entrained, which can lead to the printed sheets buckling and thus impairing the pressing quality of the book block.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, eine Vorrichtung der gattungs gemäßen Art zum maschinellen Abpressen von gerundeten Buchblocks zu schaffen, mit der sich eine Qualitätsverbesserung erzielen läßt.The object of the invention is to provide a device of the generic type for machine pressing of rounded book blocks, with which a quality improvement can be achieved.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch den kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere vorteilhafte Ausführungsvarianten sowie Ausgestaltungen ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.The object is achieved by the characterizing part of
Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand von Ausführungsbeispielen näher erläutert, die in den Zeichnungen schematisch dargestellt sind. Es zeigen:
- Fig. 1-13
- die Abpreßvorrichtung in verschiedenen Ausführungsvarianten.
- Fig. 1-13
- the squeezing device in different versions.
In an sich bekannter Weise wird die Abpreßvorrichtung von zwei abständig zueinander angeordneten Auslegern eines Lagers 3 gebildet, an denen wie aus den Figuren 1 und 2 ersichtlich im Bogen verlaufende frei drehbare Rollen 4a gelagert sind, die eine Bewegungsbahn 4 für eine die Ausleger des Lagers 3 miteinander verbindende Brücke 5 ergeben. Der Bewegungsbahn 4 entsprechend verlaufend weist die Brücke 5 Bogenbahnen 5a auf und trägt einen sogenannten Preßbalken 6 mit einer konkaven, der Rückenform eines Buchblocks annähernd angepaßten Wirkfläche 6a. Die Brücke 5 mit dem Preßbalken 6 wird vom Hauptantrieb aus über eine gelenkig angreifende Antriebsstange 7 auf der Bewegungsbahn 4 von der Buchblockrückenmitte aus abwechselnd zu der einen und anderen Seite des Buchblockrückens verschwenkt. Dabei befindet sich der Drehpunkt des Preßbalkens 6 in seinem Berührungspunkt mit dem Buchblockrücken.In a manner known per se, the pressing device is formed by two arms of a
Gemäß Pfeilrichtung wirkt der Preßbalken 6 zum Stauchen der Druckbogen im Bereich der Buchblockrückenmitte über nicht dargestellte Antriebsmittel unter einer definierten Preßkraft auf den gerundeten Buchblockrücken 1, der von Klemmbacken 8 in seinem rückennahen Bereich gehalten ist.According to the direction of the arrow, the
Zum Umlegen der Druckbogen in den Seitenbereichen des Buchblockrückens wird erfindungsgemäß eine der Schwenkbewegung überlagerte tangentiale Schiebebewegung auf die Druckbogen erzeugt, indem das Lager eine definiert seitwärts steuernde Bewegung ausgeführt. Hierzu greift am Lager 3 eine Koppelstange 9 an, die von einer umlaufend angetriebenen Steuerkurve 10 über einen schwenkbar gelagerten Antriebsarm 11 mit Steuerrolle 12 das Lager 3 abwechselnd gemäß Pfeilrichtung zur rechten und linken Seite um das Maß x bzw. x' bewegt.To fold the printed sheets in the side areas of the book block spine, according to the invention a tangential sliding movement superimposed on the pivoting movement on the printed sheets is generated by the bearing executing a defined laterally controlling movement. For this purpose, a
Der Schiebeweg x bzw. x' berücksichtigt die Verlängerung des Buchblockrückens beim Abpreßvorgang. Der Überstand des Preßbalkens 6 bezogen auf den Buchblock 1 bleibt konstant, zwischen Buchblock 1 und Preßbalken 6 entsteht keine Relativbewegung.The sliding path x or x 'takes into account the lengthening of the spine of the book block during the pressing process. The protrusion of the
Die der Schwenkbewegung überlagerte Schiebebewegung läßt sich über eine Positionsveränderung des Anlenkpunktes der Koppelstange 9 im Antriebsarm 11 mittels Stellelemente in Form eines Langloches 13, eines Kulissensteines 14 und einer Klemmschraube 15 entsprechend der gewünschten Buchblockrückenform in Abhängigkeit von der Buchblockdicke, Form der Preßbalkenwirkfläche 6a sowie der Position des Preßbalkendrehpunktes variieren.The sliding movement superimposed on the pivoting movement can be changed by changing the position of the articulation point of the
Der Rückhub des Preßbalkens 6 erfolgt auf der gleichen Bewegungsbahn, vorteilhafterweise jedoch führt der Preßbalken 6 für die Rückhubbewegung eine geringfügige Vertikalbewegung aus, die bis zur Mittelstellung wieder auf Null zurückgeht.The return stroke of the
In einer zur ersten Ausführungsvariante einer Abpreßvorrichtung abgewandelten Konstruktion läßt sich gemäß Figuren 3, 3a und 4 die der Schwenkbewegung des Preßbalkens 6 überlagerte tangentiale Schiebebewegung auf die Druckbogen in den Seitenbereichen des Buchblockrückens durch eine an einem Hebelarm 16 unterhalb eines fiktiven Drehpunktes des Preßbalkens 6 angreifende Koppelstange 17 erreichen, die sich während der Schwenkbewegung an einem ortsfesten Lager 18 abstützt. Dabei kann der Hebelarm 16 von einem Ausleger des den Preßbalken 6 aufnehmenden Tragteiles 5 gebildet sein.3, 3a and 4, the tangential sliding movement superimposed on the pivoting movement of the
Um zu Beginn der Schwenkbewegung eine Schiebebewegung auf den Buchblockrücken zu vermeiden, wird der Drehpunkt "M" des Preßbalkens etwas oberhalb des Buchblockrückens justiert. Die Größe des Schiebehubes "Z" läßt sich durch den Hebel 16 bestimmen, dessen Hebelarmlänge durch Verlegung des Anlenkpunktes über Stellmittel 16a, 17a veränderbar ist. Der Rückhub des Preßbalkens 6 erfolgt wiederum entlang der gleichen Bewegungsbahn, vorteilhafterweise nach Ausführung einer geringen Vertikalbewegung. Alternativ dazu kann auch der Lagerpunkt 18 beim Rückhub bis zur Mittelstellung eine Lüftbewegung machen.In order to avoid a sliding movement on the spine of the book block at the beginning of the swiveling movement, the pivot point "M" of the press beam is adjusted somewhat above the spine of the book block. The size of the sliding stroke "Z" can be determined by the
In einer weiteren abgewandelten Konstruktion zur ersten Ausführungsvariante kann gemäß Figur 5 und 6 die der Schwenkbewegung des Preßbalkens 6 überlagerte tangentiale Schiebebewegung auf die Druckbogen in den Seitenbereichen des Buchblockrückens über an der Brücke 5 an Auslegern 5b gelagerte, bei der Schwenkbewegung gegen Steuerbahnen 20 laufende Steuerrollen 19 ausgeführt werden, was zwangsläufig die Horizontalbewegung erzeugt.In a further modified construction to the first embodiment variant, the tangential sliding movement superimposed on the swiveling movement of the
Durch einen Freiraum zwischen Steuerrolle 19 und Steuerbahn 20 erfolgt zunächst nur die Schwenkbewegung und nach Anlage der Rolle 19 an der Flanke der Bahn 20 zusätzlich die Schiebebewegung. Beim Rückhub des Preßbalkens 6 vollzieht sich zunächst nur die Rückschwenkbewegung bis zur Anlage der Steuerrolle 19 an der Flanke der gegenüberliegenden Steuerbahn 20, wodurch ein reibungsloser Rückhub ohne Vertikalbewegung möglich ist. Zur Positionshaltung des Lagers 3 stützt sich dieses an Federelementen 25 ab.Due to a free space between the
Gemäß einer zweiten Ausführungsvariante in Figur 7 und 8 wird das Lager 3 mit der den Preßbalken 6 tragenden abwechselnd zu der einen und anderen Seite verschwenkbaren Brücke 5 bogenförmig geführt, indem das Lager 3 auf einer Bogenbahn liegende Rollen 21 trägt, die in Bahnsegmenten 22 eines nicht dargestellten Tragrahmens geführt sind. Im Hinblick auf unterschiedliche Radien der Preßbalkenwirkfläche 6a ist eine radiale Verstellung der Bahnsegmente 22 und Rollen 21 erforderlich. Über die Antriebsstange 7 wird der Preßbalken 6 frei tangential bewegt sowie über nicht dargestellte Antriebsmittel eine Preßkraft auf den Buchblockrücken erzeugt.According to a second embodiment variant in FIGS. 7 and 8, the
Der Radius der Bahnsegmente 22 sowie der Radius der Preßbalkenwirkfläche 6a befinden sich auf demselben Mittelpunkt unterhalb des Drehpunktes des Preßbalkens 6, der annähernd auf dem Berührungspunkt zwischen Buchblockrücken und Preßbalken liegt.The radius of the
Infolge der durch Reibung des Preßbalkens 6 am Buchblockrücken des zwischen Klemmbacken 8 gehaltenen Buchblocks 1 entstehenden Tangentialkräfte ergibt sich eine der Schwenkbewegung überlagerte tangentiale Schiebebewegung des Preßbalkens 6 und bedingt dadurch ein Umlegen der Druckbogen in den Seitenbereichen des Buchblockrückens.As a result of the tangential forces resulting from the friction of the
Eine dritte Ausführungsvariante zeigt eine in Figur 9 und 10 dargestellte Bauweise, in der das Lager 3 mit der Brücke 5 und dem Preßbalken 6 zwischen ortsfesten seitlichen Führungen 27 höhenverfahrbar ist und der Preßbalken 6 über nicht dargestellte Antriebsmittel unter einer definierten Preßkraft auf den gerundeten Buchblock 1, der von Klemmbacken 8 im rückennahen Bereich gehalten ist, einwirkt. Der Drehpunkt des Preßbalkens 6 befindet sich dabei in einem definierten Abstand unterhalb seines Berührungspunktes mit dem Rücken des Buchblocks 1, da ein seitliches Ausweichen des Lagers entfällt.A third embodiment variant shows a construction shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, in which the
Der Preßbalken 6 ist in einem Zwischenträger 28 des Tragteiles 5 konzentrisch und frei tangential auf Rollen 30 verschiebbar gelagert und wird bei der Schwenkbewegung in Anlage an Seitenanschläge 32 des Zwischenträgers 28 verbracht. Für eine mittige Lagerung des Preßbalkens 6 in dem Zwischenträger 28 sind Druckfedern 31 vorgesehen, über die sich der Preßbalken 6 seitlich an dem Zwischenträger 28 abstützt.The
Der Antrieb des Zwischenträgers 28 mit dem Preßbalken 6 von der Buchblockrückenmitte aus abwechselnd zu der einen und anderen Seite des Buchblockrückens erfolgt wiederum in bekannter vorab beschriebener Weise über die Brücke 5 mit der gelenkig angreifenden Antriebsstange 7 unter einer definierten Preßkraft.The drive of the
Wie vorab beschrieben, verschiebt sich der Preßbalken 6 tangential, wobei über Anschlagschrauben 32 im Zwischenträger 28 eine Begrenzung der Verschiebung erfolgt und somit die Schiebebewegung zum Umlegen der Druckbogen in den Seitenbereichen des Buchblockrückens eingeleitet wird.As described above, the
Durch Abstandsveränderung des Drehpunktes des Preßbalkens 6 zum Buchblockrücken sowie über die Anschlagschrauben 32 läßt sich die Größe des Verschiebehubes einstellen.The size of the displacement stroke can be adjusted by changing the distance between the pivot point of the
Ohne Vertikalbewegung des Preßbalkens 6 beim Rückhub wird ein Zurückreißen der umgelegten Druckbogen vermieden.Without vertical movement of the
Wie aus den Figuren 11 und 12 ersichtlich stützt sich in einer vierten Ausführungsvariante die Abpreßeinheit beim Abpreßvorgang seitlich entgegen der Wirkung von Tellerfederpaketen 35 ab, wodurch eine Preßkraft zum Umlegen der Druckbogen des Buchblocks 1 in den Seitenbereichen des Rückens aufgebracht wird. Dabei befindet sich der Drehpunkt des Preßbalkens 6 in seinem Berührungspunkt zum Buchblockrücken.As can be seen from FIGS. 11 and 12, in a fourth embodiment variant, the pressing unit is supported laterally against the action of
Gemäß der Erfindung wird vorgeschlagen, die Wirkung des Tellerfederpaketes 35 während des Rückhubes des Preßbalkens 6 zur Buchblockrückenmitte aufzuheben, um ein Mitreißen der nach den Seiten hin umgelegten äußeren Druckbogen zu verhindern. Dabei kann die Bewegung des Preßbalkens 6 zusätzlich derart gesteuert sein, daß dieser während seines Rückhubes vom Rücken des Buchblocks durch eine Aufwärtsbewegung frei kommt.According to the invention, it is proposed to cancel the effect of the

- The apparatus as claimed in claim 12, wherein the distance through which the tangential sliding movement of the pressing beam (6) takes place can be adjusted through the agency of the lateral stops (32).
- The apparatus as claimed in claim 12 or claim 13, wherein the pressing beam (6) is laterally supported in the intermediate carrier (28), through the agency of resilient elements (31).
- The apparatus as claimed in claim 1, with a load-bearing component which is laterally supported against the action of a resilient element, so that a pressing force is generated with the purpose of bending-over the printed sheets in the side regions of the book block spine, this apparatus comprising a control system (36-40) which neutralizes the action of said resilient element (35) during the return stroke of the pressing beam (6) to the center of the book block spine.
- The apparatus as claimed in claim 15, comprising control systems (36-40) with tappet-like devices which enable pressure to be applied, in turn, to opposite sides of the load-bearing component (3) with the carrier piece (5) and the pressing beam (6), so as to switch the resilient element (35) from a supporting position, to a position in which the pressure is relieved, said resilient element (35) preferably being designed as a disk spring assembly.
- The apparatus as claimed in claim 15 or claim 16, wherein the disk spring assembly (35) is installed on a tappet-like device (36) and is supported, on one side, against a stop collar (38) which is associated with said tappet-like device (36), while on the other side it is supported against a sliding sleeve (39) which is guided on said tappet-like device (36) and carries a control roller (40) which is in functional association with a rotationally-drivable disk cam (37).
- The apparatus as claimed in claim 1 or claim 15, wherein the load-bearing component (3), with the carrier piece (5) and the pressing beam (6), can be directed, through the agency of working cylinders (43), from the supporting position and into the position in which the pressure is relieved.
- The apparatus as claimed in any one of claims 1 to 18, wherein the movement of the pressing beam (6) is controlled in a manner such that a once-only backing operation is performed on each side of the book block spine.
- The apparatus as claimed in any one of claims 1 to 19, wherein the working surface of the pressing beam (6) is given a convex configuration, or is designed to be flat.
- The apparatus as claimed in any one of claims 1 to 20, wherein the movement of the pressing beam (6) is controlled in a manner such that with the return stroke the pressing beam (6) is caused to lift away from the book block spine.
- The apparatus as claimed in any one of claims 1 to 21, wherein the center of rotation of the pressing beam (6) can be adjusted to a position above the book block spine.
