Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Zylinder mit einer Vorrichtung zum Spannen von Platten mit abgekanteten Enden auf einem Zylinder einer Rotationsdruckmaschine gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a cylinder with a Device for clamping plates with folded edges Ends on a cylinder of a rotary printing press according to the preamble of claim 1.

Durch die DE 42 38 343 A1 ist eine Klemm- und Spannvorrichtung auf einem Formzylinder für ein als Folie ausgebildetes Klischee bekannt geworden. Beide Enden der Folie werden hierbei in einen engen, axial verlaufenden Schlitz im Formzylinder eingeführt und von einer im Inneren des Formzylinders angeordneten Klemm- und Spannvorrichtung gehalten und gespannt. Die Spann- und Klemmvorrichtung besteht hierbei aus einer Betätigungsspindel auf die eine Anzahl von Spannrollen aufgefädelt sind. Eine Rotation der Spannrollen auf der Befestigungsspindel ist erst nach überwindung einer Rutschkupplung zwischen Befestigungsspindel und Spannrollen möglich. Die Befestigungsspindel ist an beiden Enden federnd gelagert. Hierdurch wird erreicht, daß die Rollen an die in den Schlitz eingeführten Enden des Klischees angedrückt werden. Der Verdrehung der Betätigungsspindel folgen die Rollen und ziehen, - in angedrückter Stellung -, die Folienenden in den Schlitz hinein.DE 42 38 343 A1 is a clamping and Clamping device on a forme cylinder as a Foil-formed cliché became known. Both Ends of the film are narrow, axial running slot inserted in the forme cylinder and from a clamping and arranged inside the forme cylinder Clamping device held and tensioned. The tension and Clamping device consists of one Actuating spindle on the a number of idlers are threaded. A rotation of the tension pulleys on the Fastening spindle is only after overcoming one Slip clutch between mounting spindle and Tension rollers possible. The mounting spindle is on spring-mounted at both ends. This ensures that the rollers on the ends inserted into the slot of the cliché. The twist of the Actuating spindle follow the rollers and pull, - in pressed position -, the film ends in the slot inside.

Die DE-OS 21 26 941 zeigt einen Plattenzylinder mit einer Vorrichtung zum Spannen einer Druckplatte. Hierbei weist der Plattenzylinder eine in einer Grube angeordnete, verdrehbare Spindel auf. An dieser Spindel ist ein mit einer Leiste versehenes Zugblech angebracht. Ein Ende der Druckplatte ist zur Aufnahme der Leiste mit einem angeformten Haken versehen.DE-OS 21 26 941 shows a plate cylinder with a device for tensioning a printing plate. Here the plate cylinder has one in a pit arranged, rotatable spindle. On this spindle is attached a pull sheet provided with a bar. One end of the pressure plate is used to hold the bar a molded hook.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Zylinder mit einer Vorrichtung zum Spannen von Platten mit abgekanteten Enden auf diesem Zylinder einer Rotationsdruckmaschine zu schaffen, mit der ein abgekantetes Ende der Platte in einen engen, in eine Mantelfläche des Zylinders eingebrachten Schlitz einziehbar ist.The invention has for its object a cylinder with a device for tensioning plates with folded ends on this cylinder one To create rotary printing press with the one folded end of the plate in a tight, in a Shell of the cylinder introduced slot is retractable.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teiles des Anspruches 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by the features of the characterizing part of claim 1 solved.

Die mit der Erfindung erzielbaren Vorteile bestehen insbesondere darin, daß ein zur Aufnahme von abgekanteten Enden dienender Schlitz nur etwas breiter als eine doppelte Dicke der Platte ausgeführt ist. Ein abgekantetes Ende einer Platte muß nicht in seiner Dicke verändert werden, um von der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung erfaßt und in den Schlitz des Zylinders gezogen zu werden. Der Schlitz ist nur partiell durch Vertiefungen in Umfangsrichtung verbreitert, weswegen ein nur sehr enger Kanal entsteht. Hierdurch werden Kanalschläge und dadurch auftretende Schwingungen weitgehend vermieden.
Vorteilhafterweise entfällt ein Einfädeln des Endes der Platte in eine innerhalb der Grube liegende Spindel, das Ende der Platte wird kontrolliert eingehängt. Hierdurch wird die Handhabung erleichtert und die Funktionssicherheit erhöht.
The advantages that can be achieved with the invention are, in particular, that a slot that serves to accommodate bent ends is only slightly wider than twice the thickness of the plate. A folded end of a plate does not have to be changed in thickness in order to be gripped by the device according to the invention and drawn into the slot of the cylinder. The slot is only partially widened by depressions in the circumferential direction, which is why a very narrow channel is formed. This largely avoids channel impacts and the vibrations that occur as a result.
Advantageously, there is no need to thread the end of the plate into a spindle located inside the pit, and the end of the plate is hooked in in a controlled manner. This simplifies handling and increases functional reliability.

Der erfindungsgemäße Zylinder ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird im folgenden näher beschrieben.The cylinder according to the invention is in the drawing shown and is described in more detail below.

Der Schlitz 7 ist im Querschnitt vorzugsweise rechteckig ausgebildet. Eine Breite b7 des Querschnittes des Schlitzes 7 weist an seinem Anfang 10 etwas mehr als die doppelte Dicke d2 der Platte 2 auf, d.h. beispielsweise b7 = 1 mm. Der Schlitz 7 ist bezüglich einer an der Mantelfläche 6 im Bereich des Schlitzes 7 anliegenden Tangente 12 um einen Neigungswinkel Alpha, z. B. Alpha = 45°, geneigt. Eine dem nach laufenden Ende 4 der Platte 2 zugewandte Seitenfläche 13 des Schlitzes 7 ist mit einer Anzahl von parallel zu dieser Seitenfläche 13 verlaufenden U-förmigen Vertiefungen 14 versehen. Diese Vertiefungen 14 weisen jeweils einen nach außen in Richtung der Mantelfläche 6 des Zylinders 1 weisenden Rückfederraum 16 auf, so daß sich die jeweilige Vertiefung 14 in Umfangsrichtung des Zylinders 1 erweitert und an dessen übergang eine Biegekante 15 bildet. Am Ende des Schlitzes 7 ist eine parallel zu dem Schlitz 7 verlaufende Bohrung 17 in dem Zylinder 1 angebracht. Der Schlitz 7 tangiert die Bohrung 17, so daß die Bohrung 17 mit dem Schlitz 7 in Verbindung steht.
In dieser Bohrung 17 ist ein Schwenkhebel 18, der im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel als eine Spindel 18 mit einem Radius r18, z. B. r18 = 15 mm, ausgeführt ist, schwenkbar zentrisch gelagert. Eine Mantelfläche 19 der Spindel 18 weist über einen Winkel Beta, z.B. Beta = 80°, bezogen auf eine Längsachse 21 der Spindel 18 in Umfangsrichtung verlaufende U-förmige Nuten 22 mit reduziertem Radius r22, z. B. r22 = 14,5 mm, auf. In axialer Richtung gesehen sind die Nuten 22 der Spindel 18 und die Vertiefung 14 des Schlitzes 7 des Zylinders 1 aufeinander angepaßt. Am Ende dieser U-förmigen Nuten 22 ist ein axial verlaufender, sich radial von der Mantelfläche 19 in ein Inneres der Spindel 18 erstreckender Schlitz 23 eingebracht. In diesem Schlitz 23 sind Enden 24 von biegeelastischen, aber druck- und zugsteifen Zungen 26 eingehängt, die im vorliegenden Beispiel als Blattfedern, z. B. aus Federstahl, ausgeführt sind. Diese Zungen 26 liegen in den U-förmigen Nuten 22 der Spindel 18 und passen sich im eingebauten Zustand der Form der Spindel 18 an. Ein zweites, nicht mit der Spindel 18 verbundenes Ende der Zunge 26 ist in Richtung vorlaufendes Ende 3 der Platte 2 weisender und in Richtung Spindel 18 wirkender Widerhaken 27 ausgebildet. Eine in Richtung Mantelfläche 6 des Zylinders 1 weisende Außenseite des Widerhakens 27 ist mit einer in Richtung vorlaufendes Ende 3 der Platte 2 weisenden Abschrägung 28 versehen. In einem Abstand a zu dem Widerhaken 27 ist an der Zunge 26 ein in Richtung vorlaufendes Ende 3 der Platte 2 weisender Nocken 29 angebracht. Die Zungen 26 erstrecken sich über eine Länge l26, z. B. l26 = 25 mm, und weisen eine Dicke d26, z. B. d26 = 0,5 mm, auf. Die axiale Lage der Vertiefungen 14 des Schlitzes 7, der Nuten 22 der Spindel 18 und der Zungen 26 sind aufeinander angepaßt.
The slot 7 is preferably rectangular in cross section. A width b7 of the cross section of the slot 7 has at its beginning 10 slightly more than twice the thickness d2 of the plate 2, ie for example b7 = 1 mm. The slot 7 is in relation to a tangent 12 lying on the lateral surface 6 in the area of the slot 7 by an angle of inclination alpha, z. B. Alpha = 45 °. A side surface 13 of the slot 7 facing the end 4 of the plate 2 is provided with a number of U-shaped recesses 14 running parallel to this side surface 13. These recesses 14 each have a spring-back space 16 pointing outwards in the direction of the lateral surface 6 of the cylinder 1, so that the respective recess 14 widens in the circumferential direction of the cylinder 1 and forms a bending edge 15 at its transition. At the end of the slot 7, a bore 17 running parallel to the slot 7 is made in the cylinder 1. The slot 7 tangent to the bore 17 so that the bore 17 communicates with the slot 7.
In this bore 17 is a pivot lever 18, which in the present embodiment as a spindle 18 with a radius r18, z. B. r18 = 15 mm, is pivotally mounted centrally. A lateral surface 19 of the spindle 18 has an angle Beta, for example Beta = 80 °, with respect to a longitudinal axis 21 of the spindle 18 in the circumferential direction U-shaped grooves 22 with a reduced radius r22, z. B. r22 = 14.5 mm. Seen in the axial direction, the grooves 22 of the spindle 18 and the recess 14 of the slot 7 of the cylinder 1 are adapted to one another. At the end of these U-shaped grooves 22, an axially extending slot 23, which extends radially from the lateral surface 19 into an interior of the spindle 18, is introduced. In this slot 23 ends 24 of flexible, but pressure and tension-resistant tongues 26 are suspended, which in the present example as leaf springs, for. B. made of spring steel. These tongues 26 lie in the U-shaped grooves 22 of the spindle 18 and adapt to the shape of the spindle 18 in the installed state. A second, not connected to the spindle 18 end of the tongue 26 is formed in the direction of the leading end 3 of the plate 2 and acting in the direction of the spindle 18 barb 27. An outside of the barb 27 pointing in the direction of the lateral surface 6 of the cylinder 1 is provided with a bevel 28 pointing in the direction of the leading end 3 of the plate 2. At a distance a from the barb 27, on the tongue 26 there is a cam 29 pointing in the direction of the leading end 3 of the plate 2. The tongues 26 extend over a length l26, z. B. l26 = 25 mm, and have a thickness d26, z. B. d26 = 0.5 mm. The axial position of the recesses 14 of the slot 7, the grooves 22 of the spindle 18 and the tongues 26 are adapted to one another.

Die Funktionsweise der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ist folgendermaßen:
In einer Einführstellung (Fig. 1) der Spindel 18 befindet sich der Widerhaken 27 der jeweiligen Zunge 26 im Bereich des Rückfederraumes 16 der Vertiefungen 14 kurz unter der Mantelfläche 6 des Zylinders 1. In dieser Stellung wird zuerst das vorlaufende, abgekantete Ende 3 der Platte 2 in den Schlitz 7 geführt. Anschließend wird der mit Aussparungen 11 im Bereich der Zungen 26 versehene Schenkel 9 des nachlaufenden Endes 4 der Platte 2 in den Schlitz 7 gebracht. Hierbei stößt der Schenkel 9 gegen die Abschrägung 28 der Widerhaken 27 und drückt diese um die Biegekante 15 in den Rückfederraum 16 der Vertiefung 14 des Schlitzes 7. Dadurch gleitet der Schenkel 9 am Widerhaken 27 vorbei, bis die Aussparungen 11 der Platte 2 in die Widerhaken 27 einrasten, wobei die Zungen 26 aus dem Rückfederraum 16 des Schlitzes 7 federn.
Zum Spannen der Platte 2 wird die Spindel 18 gegen den Uhrzeigersinn verdreht, wodurch die Zungen 26 den eingehängten Schenkel 9 der Platte 2 in den Schlitz 7 ziehen. Widerhaken 27 und Schenkel 9 bleiben dabei im Schlitz 7. Nach abgeschlossenen Spannvorgang wird die Spindel 18 drehfest oder gefedert arretiert.
The operation of the device according to the invention is as follows:
In an insertion position (FIG. 1) of the spindle 18, the barb 27 of the respective tongue 26 is located in the area of the resilience space 16 of the recesses 14, just below the lateral surface 6 of the cylinder 1. In this position, the leading, beveled end 3 of the plate is first 2 led into the slot 7. Then the leg 9 of the trailing end 4 of the plate 2, which is provided with cutouts 11 in the area of the tongues 26, is brought into the slot 7. Here, the leg 9 abuts the bevel 28 of the barbs 27 and presses them around the bending edge 15 into the spring-back space 16 of the recess 14 of the slot 7. As a result, the leg 9 slides past the barb 27 until the recesses 11 of the plate 2 into the barbs 27 snap into place, the tongues 26 springing out of the resilience space 16 of the slot 7.
To tension the plate 2, the spindle 18 is rotated counterclockwise, whereby the tongues 26 pull the suspended leg 9 of the plate 2 into the slot 7. Barbs 27 and legs 9 remain in the slot 7. After the clamping process has been completed, the spindle 18 is locked in a rotationally fixed or spring-loaded manner.

Zum Entfernen der Platte 2 wird die Spindel 16 im Uhrzeigersinn gedreht, wobei die Nocken 29 der Zungen 26 gegen den Schenkel 9 des nach laufenden Endes 4 drücken. Im Verlauf der weiteren Drehbewegung federn die Zungen 27 nach außen in ihre Strecklage, so daß die Zungen 27 tangential bezüglich der Spindel 16 stehen und in den Vertiefungen 14 des Schlitzes 7 verlaufen. Die Spindel 18 wird soweit verdreht bis der Schenkel 9 des nachlaufenden Endes 4 vollständig aus dem Schlitz 7 entfernt ist, d.h. die Nocken 29 der Zungen 26 stehen im Bereich der Mantelfläche 6 des Zylinders 1. Das nachlaufende Ende 4 der Platte 2 kann von der Zunge 27 entfernt werden.To remove the plate 2, the spindle 16 in Turned clockwise, the cams 29 of the tongues 26th press against the leg 9 of the end 4 after running. The tongues spring as the rotation continues 27 outwards into their extended position so that the tongues 27 stand tangential to the spindle 16 and in the Depressions 14 of the slot 7 run. The spindle 18 is rotated until the leg 9 of the trailing end 4 completely out of the slot 7 is removed, i.e. the cams 29 of the tongues 26 are in the Area of the outer surface 6 of the cylinder 1. Das trailing end 4 of the plate 2 can from the tongue 27 be removed.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung kann auf beide Enden 3, 4 der Platte 2 gleichzeitig wirken oder es kann für jedes Ende 3, 4 eine eigene Vorrichtung vorgesehen sein. The device according to the invention can be attached to both ends 3, 4 of the plate 2 act simultaneously or it can for each end 3, 4 may be provided with its own device.

Auch kann der Schlitz 7 soweit verbreitert sein, daß sowohl die abgekanteten Enden 3, 4 und die Zungen 21 aufgenommen werden als auch noch der Rückfederraum 16 gebildet wird. Beispielsweise kann der Schlitz 7 um die Tiefe der im ersten Beispiel beschriebenen, U-förmigen Vertiefungen 14 verbreitert sein und diese Vertiefungen 14 können dann entfallen. In diesem Fall wäre die Seitenfläche 13 des Schlitzes 7 mit einer die Biegekante 15 bildende, sich axial erstreckenden, wulstartigen oder halbkugelförmigen Erhöhung versehen. Zwischen einer solchen Erhöhung und dem Anfang 10 des Schlitzes 7 wird also ebenfalls ein Rückfederraum 16 geschaffen. The slot 7 can be widened to the extent that both the bevelled ends 3, 4 and the tongues 21 are included as well as the spring-back space 16 is formed. For example, the slot 7 around the Depth of the U-shaped described in the first example Wells 14 be widened and these wells 14 can then be omitted. In this case it would be Side surface 13 of the slot 7 with a the bending edge 15 forming, axially extending, bead-like or hemispherical elevation. Between one such increase and the beginning 10 of the slot 7 will thus also created a spring-back space 16.
