Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pressure element assigned to a cylinder of a printing press with a suspension according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • DE 4 218 602 A1 discloses a device for changing plates, which is designed as a pressure roller and for mounting a new pressure plate this is employed. To turn this pressure roller on and off acts on both Each end of this roller has an actuator with a spring connected in series.
  • the spring element is provided for reasons of personal protection, in particular to avoid injuries when the plate cylinder is rotating and the Pressure roller one hand in the gap between pressure roller and plate cylinder device. Due to the series connection of the control element and the spring, it is not possible to apply the pressure roller to the plate cylinder with any force, because the spring constant is designed to avoid injury have to be. Furthermore, the bearing of the pressure roller is still a switching element assigned, which is an evasive movement of the pressure roller in the parked state detected and then triggers a machine stop.
  • a disadvantage of this known device is that it is designed as a pressure roller Pressure element cannot be adjusted to the cylinder with any high forces is. Especially when mounting new printing plates on the plate cylinder Printing press is but this is desirable, in particular in order to prevent the Avoid pressure plate at the start of printing.
  • From DE 4 214 207 C1 is also a pressure roller and Folding bar known in combination formed pressing element, which via an assigned actuating means to the plate cylinder can be turned on and off from this. Since with this known Device no spring element is provided, neither can Pressure roller still the associated folding bar in the from Plate cylinder parked state an evasive movement from Execute plate cylinder away. The pressure roller can be used as well as the folding bar with any forces on the plate cylinder make the additional pollution effort for Avoiding injuries is a disadvantage here.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore a suspension to train in accordance with the preamble of claim 1 so that the disadvantages described above can be avoided.
  • Figures 1 to 3 each show a plate cylinder Printing machine with a pressure roller arranged parallel to it 2.
  • the pressure roller 2 serves in a manner known per se Mount a printing plate, not shown, on the plate cylinder 1 and can be switched on and off from it stored.
  • the pressure roller 2 is on the pivotable Ends of a two-armed lever 3, this two-armed Lever 3 is mounted on a frame-fixed joint 11.
  • a socket 4 articulated which at its lower end has a central opening 4.1 having.
  • the piston rod 6 engages through this opening 4.1 trained as working cylinder 7 (pneumatic cylinder) Actuator. That through the opening 4.1 in the interior of the socket 4 protruding end of the piston rod 6 is expanded to a head 5, the head 5 has a larger outer diameter than that Opening 4.1.
  • the stem of the piston rod 6 is within the Opening 4.1 movable in the manner of a straight guide.
  • the actuator designed as a working cylinder 7 is on his lower end supported by a joint 10 fixed to the frame. Between the upper end of the working cylinder 7 and the lower end of the Bushing 4 is arranged coaxially to the piston rod 6, a spring 8, which the bottom of the socket 4 (opening 4.1) against the bottom of the head 5 presses.
  • the spring 8 is supported by the frame thus the pressure roller 2 in one of the plate cylinder 1 parked basic position held (Fig. 1).
  • the adjusting element designed as working cylinder 7 remains in its basic position, in which the pressure roller 2 from the plate cylinder 1 is turned off, the pressure roller 2 can resiliently from Plate cylinder 1 are pivoted away, the spring 8th is compressed and the head 5 of the piston rod 6 from the bottom of the Jack 4 lifts off. The head 5 of the piston rod 6 thus continues to dive in the interior of the socket 4.
  • This from the plate cylinder 1 The swiveled-away position of the pressure roller 2 is shown in FIG. 2 shown.
  • the pivoting of the pressure roller 2 from the plate cylinder 1 is transferred via the lever 3 to a shift lever 22 which cooperates with a switch 23, whereupon machine stop is triggered.
  • Figures 4 to 6 again show the articulation in detail of the actuator designed as a working cylinder 7 on the lever 3.
  • the position of the piston rod 6 of the working cylinder 7 in Fig. 4th corresponds to the position of the pressure roller 2 in Fig. 1.
  • the Working cylinder 7 is on its underside by a joint 10 a frame wall 13 articulated.
  • the pressure roller 2 is on both frame walls by an adjusting means on the plate cylinder 1 employed.
  • the joint 11 of the lever 3 is through a bolt formed in the frame wall 13 is formed.
  • the Socket 4 with the opening 4.1 is in a hinge pin 12 of the Lever 3 inserted.
  • the head 5, which is located inside the socket 4 is with its threaded shaft in a thread of the Stop forming sleeve screwed, which in turn with a appropriate thread screwed onto the end of the piston rod 6 is.
  • the spring 8 is supported on the one hand on the top of the working cylinder 7 from (and thus fixed to the frame) and on the other hand on the underside of the socket 4.
  • Fig. 5 gives the resilient pivoting of the pressure roller 2 from Plate cylinder 1 again, here the head 5 further in the Immersed interior of the socket 4 and this the spring 8 accordingly compresses the swivel path of the lever 3 (compare Fig. 2).
  • FIGS 7 to 10 show another embodiment of the Anstell- and Abstellvorutter invention for a as a pressure roller 2 formed pressure element.
  • the pressure roller 2 is here with their two ends on one pivotable end each one-armed lever 3 rotatably mounted.
  • the hinge 11 of the lever 3 is formed by a hinge pin 16.
  • On the shaft this hinge pin 16 is another lever 18 in addition to the lever 3 the piston rod 6 is pivotally mounted, at its pivotable end of a working cylinder 7 which is articulated via a joint 10 is firmly supported on the frame.
  • Fig. 7 the pressure roller 2 is in the parked state with respect to the plate cylinder 1.
  • the force of the spring 8, which is transmitted via the rod 15 to the lever arm 14 the surface of the stop 21 against the associated surface of the Driver 19 pressed, which is connected to the lever 18.
  • the Piston rod 6 of the working cylinder 7 is in the retracted position so that through the lever 18 connected driver 19, the pressure roller 2 via the lever 3 in a defined distance from the surface of the plate cylinder 1 is held.
  • the position of the pressure roller 2 according to FIG. 7 corresponds to the parked position of the pressure roller 2 in Fig. 1.
  • Fig. 9 shows the extended position of the piston rod 6 of the Working cylinder 7.
  • the driver 19 was around an angle corresponding to the stroke of the piston rod 6 pivoted so that the pressure roller 2 by the concern of the Driver 19 on the surface of the stop 20 to the surface of the Plate cylinder 1 is pressed.
  • the pressure roller 2 has the piston rod 6 of the working cylinder 7 first performed a certain idle stroke, the spacing the surfaces of the stops 20, 21 on the one hand and the corresponding Size of the driver 19 on the other hand corresponds. After the Driver 19 comes into contact with the stop 20 takes place Swiveling the lever 3 and thus turning the pressure roller on 2 with simultaneous relaxation of the spring 8.
  • Fig. 10 shows the parallel arrangement of the working cylinder 7 next the rod 15, via which the force of the spring 8 on the lever 4th and thus the lever 3 is transmitted, which is not shown here Pinch roller 2 carries.
  • the levers 18 and 3 are one certain pivoting path - due to the size of the driver 19 and the spacing of the stops 20 and 21 - independently pivotable from one another on a joint the joint 11 forming hinge pin 16 mounted with its end on the Rack wall 13 is attached.
  • the spring 8 is of such a characteristic designed so that the weight of the pressure roller 2 or otherwise designed pressure element in that of the plate cylinder 1 parked position is being compensated. So is ensures that even the slightest forces are sufficient Swing pressure roller 2 resiliently from plate cylinder 1. Thereby there is a maximum reduction in the risk of injury for one Operator.
  • the pressing element can also be used as a washing device formed or arranged within one.
