Definitions

  • the invention relates to methods and devices for forming and moving stacks of printed sheets, in which the sheets are shingled and stacked, according to the features listed in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention is concerned with a problem deviating from the prior art.
  • a sheet web is assumed, from which the sheets are separated by cutting, tearing or the like.
  • sequence control is activated by marking the last sheet belonging to a certain group of sheets.
  • the aim of the invention is to move the stack of a certain group of sheets as quickly as possible to another stack in the same place
  • sliders, levers or the like can be used instead of a control shaft.
  • a ramp which rises obliquely up to the conveying plane of a subsequent belt conveyor and a short distance thereafter an entraining roller arranged against the belt conveyor are arranged, the distance between the ramp and the driver roller is shorter than the sheet length extending in the conveying direction.
  • the device according to the invention it is possible to shed the sheets arriving one behind the other for another purpose.
  • the follower roller grips the sheet sliding over the ramp and moves it forward, the rear part of the sheet is brought into an inclined position by the ramp, which makes it possible to guide the front area of the following sheet below the rear area of the preceding sheet.
  • the invention relates to a measure in which the stop and one of the conveyors for the
  • Figure 1 is a schematic side view of a
  • Figure 2 is a schematic side view of the device for flaking and stacking sheets in an enlarged view
  • FIG. 2a shows a variant of FIG. 2 with regard to the separation process.
  • the separating device (5) has two pulling roller pairs (26) and (27) which are arranged at a distance from one another, of which the pair of pulling rollers (26) has a lower conveying speed than the pair of pulling rollers (27). Consequently, the sheet web (2) between the pairs of pull rollers (26, 27) is subjected to a tensile stress, which leads to the severing of the single sheet along an existing transverse perforation.
  • the gap formation is caused by the cross cutter (5) with its drive elements being stopped briefly while the printer (1) continues to work and conveys the web (2) into the loop (3).
  • the interruption lasts until the last sheet (9) of the preceding sheet group can no longer be obtained from the first sheet (9) of the subsequent sheet group when the separation process with web conveyor is resumed.
  • the pairs of pull rollers (26) and (27) are stopped in order to form a gap (25) between the groups of sheets.
  • the already torn first sheet (9) of the subsequent sheet group is still in the area of influence of the pair of draw rollers (27).
  • this sheet is at a standstill, its front edge has not yet reached the take-off conveyor (6) of the scale-forming device (7).
  • the loop (3) according to FIG. 1 is of course enlarged.
  • the pairs of pull rollers (26) and (27) are briefly driven at a higher conveying speed until the original normal operating state has been reached again.
  • the scale formation of the sheets (9) according to FIG. 2 presupposes that the belt conveyor (19) rotates more slowly than the take-off conveyor (6) or the pair of draw rollers (27).
  • the distance between the pairs of pull rollers (26) and (27) is also greater than the length of the sheet (9).
  • the function of the pair of pull rollers (27) could also be taken over by the take-off conveyor (6).
  • the gap (25) is always formed before the flakes of the leaves (9).
  • This has the advantage that sheet stacks (10) can be formed for very specific sheet groups with quite different numbers of sheets. Depending on the marking of the last sheet (9) belonging to a sheet group, it is easier to form the gap before the shingling process than if - as in the prior art - the gap formation in the flaky association of the sheets had to be carried out.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant de former des piles de documents ou de feuilles (9) imprimées et de les déplacer. Les feuilles (9) sont déplacées vers l'avant individuellement ou séparées d'une bande imprimée (2) par déchirement ou par sectionnement et sont déposées les unes sur les autres de manière à ce que la feuille (9) qui vient immédiatement à la suite soit déposée en déport sous la feuille (9) précédente. La pile (10) est formée par le fait que les feuilles (9) ainsi déposées viennent toucher une butée (11). Afin de perdre le minimum de temps lors du déplacement d'une pile de feuilles (10) complète, un espace est formé entre la dernière feuille (9) d'une pile (10) complète et la suivante, avant que les feuilles ne soient déposées. Dès que la dernière feuille (9) a pris sa position dans la pile, la butée (11) est retirée de sa position d'arrêt, de manière à ce que la pile (10) de feuilles puisse être enlevée du convoyeur (20). Ensuite, la butée (11) est ramenée dans sa position d'arrêt et la pile (10) suivante est formée.
