Der in Fig. 1 ausschnittsweise dargestellte Formzylinder 1 weist eine in Achsrichtung verlaufende Zylindergrube 2 auf. Eine Grubenwand 3 verläuft spitzwinkelig zur Zylindermantelfläche und bildet mit dieser eine Kante 4, an der der vorlaufende Plattenschenkel 5 der Druckplatte 6 aufgenommen wird. In der Zylindergrube 2 ist eine Spindel 7 angeordnet, die an den Enden der Zylindergrube 2, nicht dargestellt, drehbar gelagert ist. Die Spindel 7 trägt über die Breite der zu spannenden Druckplatte 6 verteilt mehrere um etwa 90° hakenförmige abgewinkelte Blattfedern 8. Diese arbeiten mit dem ebenfalls um etwa 90° hakenförmig abgewinkelten Ende des nachlaufenden Plattenschenkels 9 zusammen. Statt der einzelnen Blattfedern 8 könnte auch eine sich über die Breite der Druckplatte erstreckende durchgehende Blattfeder vorgesehen sein. Die Spindel 7 besitzt weiterhin eine Mitnahmekante 10, die mit einer V-förmigen Kerbe 11 des vorlaufenden Plattenschenkels 5 zusammenarbeitet.The forme cylinder 1 shown in detail in FIG. 1 has a cylinder pit 2 running in the axial direction. A Pit wall 3 is at an acute angle to the cylinder surface and forms with this an edge 4 on which the leading Plate leg 5 of the pressure plate 6 is added. In the Cylinder pit 2, a spindle 7 is arranged, which at the ends of the Cylinder pit 2, not shown, is rotatably mounted. The Spindle 7 supports the width of the pressure plate 6 to be tensioned distributes several angled leaf springs which are hook-shaped by approximately 90 ° 8. These work with the hook also around 90 ° angled end of the trailing plate leg 9 together. Instead of the individual leaf springs 8, one could look over the Continuous leaf spring extending the width of the pressure plate be provided. The spindle 7 also has a driving edge 10 with a V-shaped notch 11 of the leading Plate leg 5 works together.

An einem Ende der Spindel 7 ist ein Hebel 12 befestigt, der gelenkig mit einem einfederbaren Schwenkhebel 13 verbunden ist (Fig. 3). Der Schwenkhebel 13 enthält eine Stange 14, auf die gegen die Kraft einer Druckfeder 15 ein Gabelkopf 16 einfederbar ist. Mit einer Walze 17 stützt sich der Schwenkhebel 13 in einem Widerlager 18 schwenkbar ab. Weiterhin drückt der Schwenkhebel 13 mit seinem federbelasteten Gabelkopf 16 auf einen Bolzen 19 des Hebels 12.At one end of the spindle 7, a lever 12 is attached, which is articulated is connected to a spring-loaded pivot lever 13 (Fig. 3). Of the Swivel lever 13 contains a rod 14 on which against the force a compression spring 15 a fork head 16 can be deflected. With a Roller 17, the pivot lever 13 is supported in an abutment 18th swiveling. Furthermore, the pivot lever 13 presses with his spring-loaded clevis 16 onto a pin 19 of the lever 12.

Für die Montage der Druckplatte 6 nimmt die Spannspindel 7 zunächst die in Fig. 1 gezeigte Stellung ein. Die entsprechende Stellung der die Spindel 7 betätigenden Hebel 12 und 13 ist in Fig. 3 dargestellt. Der einfederbare Schwenkhebel 13 drückt dabei den Hebel 12 in eine Anschlagstellung. Im Ausführungsbeispiel schlägt der Hebel 12 am Zapfen 20 des Formzylinders 1 an. Nunmehr wird die Druckplatte 6 mit ihrem vorlaufenden Plattenschenkel 5 an der Kante 4 der Zylindergrube 2 eingehängt. Anschließend wird die Spindel 7 geschwenkt. Hierzu werden der Hebel 12 und der Schwenkhebel 13 in ihre Strecklage, d. h. die Verbindungslinie ihrer Schwenkpunkte, und weiter in dieser Richtung über die Strecklage hinaus bewegt, bis die Mitnahmekante 10 an der Kerbe 11 der Druckplatte 6 anliegt und die dabei aufgebrachte Spannkraft der Druckkraft des Spannhebels 13 das Gleichgewicht hält. Dabei wird die Vorderkante der Druckplatte 6 exakt parallel zur Kante 4 der Zylindergrube 2 ausgerichtet. Anschließend wird die gut ausgerichtete Druckplatte 6 unter Drehung des Formzylinders 1 auf diesen aufgewickelt. Danach wird die Spindel 7 in die in Fig. 1 gezeichnete Stellung zurückgeschwenkt, wobei der Hebel 12 am Zapfen 20 anschlägt. Nachdem der nachlaufende Plattenschenkel 9 in die Zylindergrube 2 eingedrückt wurde, wird die Spindel 7 in die in Fig. 2 gezeigte Stellung geschwenkt. Hierzu werden der Hebel 12 und der Schwenkhebel 13 wieder über ihre Strecklage hinaus ausgelenkt. Dabei spannt die Mitnahmekante 10 wiederum den vorlaufenden Plattenschenkel 5, und die Blattfedern 8 greifen in die hakenförmige Abkantung des nachlaufenden Plattenschenkels 9 und spannen diesen. Somit sind sowohl der vorlaufende als auch der nachlaufende Plattenschenkel 5, 9 unter der Kraft der Druckfeder 15 vorgespannt, d. h. die Spindel 7 dreht sich so weit, bis die Spannkräfte auf die Plattenschenkel 5, 9 der Federkraft des Schwenkhebels 13 das Gleichgewicht halten.For the assembly of the pressure plate 6, the clamping spindle 7 takes first the position shown in Fig. 1. The corresponding position of the the spindle 7 actuating lever 12 and 13 is in Fig. 3rd shown. The deflectable pivot lever 13 presses the lever 12 in a stop position. In the embodiment, the Lever 12 on the pin 20 of the forme cylinder 1. Now the Pressure plate 6 with its leading plate leg 5 on the edge 4 of the cylinder pit 2 hooked. Then the spindle 7 pivoted. For this purpose, the lever 12 and the pivot lever 13 in their stretching position, d. H. the connecting line of their pivot points, and moved further in this direction beyond the stretched position until the driving edge 10 abuts the notch 11 of the pressure plate 6 and the applied clamping force of the compressive force of the clamping lever 13 keeps the balance. The front edge of the pressure plate 6 aligned exactly parallel to the edge 4 of the cylinder pit 2. Then the well-aligned pressure plate 6 is rotated of the forme cylinder 1 wound on this. After that the spindle 7 pivoted back into the position shown in Fig. 1, the Lever 12 strikes the pin 20. After the trailing Plate leg 9 was pressed into the cylinder pit 2, the Spindle 7 pivoted into the position shown in Fig. 2. For this the lever 12 and the pivot lever 13 are again on their Stretch position deflected out. The driving edge 10 stretches again the leading plate leg 5, and the leaf springs 8 reach into the hook-shaped fold of the trailing one Plate leg 9 and tension it. So both are leading and trailing plate legs 5, 9 under the Biased force of the compression spring 15, d. H. the spindle 7 rotates until the clamping forces on the plate legs 5, 9 of the Spring force of the pivot lever 13 keep the balance.

Zur Demontage der Druckplatte 6 wird die Spindel 7 in die in Fig. 1 gezeigte Stellung geschwenkt. Anschließend wird der nachlaufende Plattenschenkel 9 aus der Zylindergrube 2 entnommen, die Druckplatte 6 durch Rückdrehung des Formzylinders 1 von diesem abgewickelt und die Druckplatte 6 mit ihrem vorlaufenden Plattenschenkel 5 aus der Zylindergrube 2 herausgehoben.To disassemble the pressure plate 6, the spindle 7 is moved into the position shown in FIG. 1 shown position pivoted. Then the trailing one Plate leg 9 removed from the cylinder pit 2, the pressure plate 6 unwound by rotating the forme cylinder 1 and the pressure plate 6 with its leading plate leg 5 from the Cylinder pit 2 lifted out.

Die Verschwenkung der Stellspindel in die eine oder andere Richtung erfolgt vorteilhaft durch Aufbringen einer Kraft F1 bzw. F2 auf den Hebel 12 diesseits oder jenseits seines Schwenkpunktes (siehe Fig. 3). Die Kräfte können durch im Gestell angeordnete Arbeitszylinder aufgebracht werden. Überhaupt ist die Vorrichtung gut für einen automatischen Plattenwechsel geeignet.The pivoting of the adjusting spindle in one direction or the other is advantageously carried out by applying a force F1 or F2 to the Lever 12 on this side or beyond its pivot point (see Fig. 3). The forces can be generated by working cylinders arranged in the frame be applied. In general, the device is good for you suitable for automatic plate change.

Die Kerbe 11 des vorlaufenden Plattenschenkels 5 ist im Ausführungsbeispiel V-förmig gestaltet. Dabei eigent sich der eine Schenkel der Kerbe 11 gut für die Mitnahme durch die Mitnahmekante 10, während sich der zweite Schenkel vorteilhaft an der Grubenwand 3 abstützt. Unter Benutzung der Erfindung kann die Kerbe auch anderweitig ausgebildet sein, beispielsweise U-förmig. Der vorlaufende Plattenschenkel 5 kann auch Noppen tragen, an denen die Mitnahmekante 10 angreift. Auch kann der vorlaufende Plattenschenkel mit in Achsrichtung des Zylinders verlaufenden Schlitzen versehen sein, in deren Bereich die Druckplatte, Mitnahmestege bildend, zur Spindel hin herausgewölbt ist.The notch 11 of the leading plate leg 5 is in the Embodiment designed V-shaped. One is appropriate Leg of the notch 11 good for taking along by the driving edge 10, while the second leg is advantageously on the pit wall 3 supports. Using the invention, the notch can also be otherwise formed, for example U-shaped. Of the leading plate leg 5 can also wear knobs on which the Driving edge 10 attacks. The leading plate leg can also provided with slots running in the axial direction of the cylinder be, in the area of which the pressure plate, driving webs, for Spindle is arched out.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsvariante (Figuren 4 und 5) weist der nachlaufende Plattenschenkel 21 der zu spannenden Druckplatte 22 in Achsrichtung des Formzylinder 23 angeordnete fensterförmige Aussparungen 24 auf. In diese greifen in der Spannstellung die hakenförmige Blattfedern 25 der Spindel 26 ein. Weiterer Aufbau und Funktion gleichen dem vorherigen Ausführungsbeispiel und werden deshalb nicht näher beschrieben.According to a further embodiment variant (FIGS. 4 and 5), the trailing plate leg 21 of the pressure plate 22 to be tensioned Axial direction of the forme cylinder 23 arranged window-shaped Cutouts 24 on.
