Definitions

  • the invention relates to a horizontal stapler with flap feeder.
  • the flap feeder is arranged in the narrow space above the package formation area, between the vertical feed path of the staple layers and the pressing tongs of the finished package.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a horizontal stacker with a very powerful flap feeder, which is able to make the time that the operator needs for the successive processes for loading the flap feeder decidedly shorter.
  • the time span between two successive loading processes can be extended from about a quarter of an hour to over an hour.
  • Another advantage is that the storage of the pliers also serves as a holder for the flap feeder, resulting in a simpler construction of the flap feeder.
  • the solution according to the invention offers the advantage that the flap feeder can also be retrofitted into the tongs of existing forklifts.
  • an embodiment of the flap feeder is specified, in which practically the entire width provided between the tong legs can be used for receiving the flaps.
  • a known horizontal stacker 1 is schematically shown with a conveyor path 2 of a stream, not shown, of stapled layers arranged in a scale.
  • Reference number 3 denotes an oscillating carpet for introducing the booklet stream into the package formation area 4.
  • the pliers with which the finished packages are pressed in order to remove the air from the booklet layers before the subsequent binding process are designated by 5 in total.
  • Reference number 6 denotes the area in which a flap feeder (not shown) is usually arranged.
  • the invention now provides for the flap feeder to be integrated into the pliers 5 without having to essentially change the construction of the stacker in question.
  • FIGS. 2 to 4 show that in the example shown the flap feeder 8 has two side walls 9, 10 for supporting the flaps 13 to be removed from a corresponding flap package 11, 12.
  • the two packages 11 and 12 are open Carrier and conveyor tracks 15 and 16 are arranged, which consist for example of deflection rollers 17, 18 and 19, 20 deflected belts.
  • the rollers 17, 19 on the side of the side walls 9, 10 are designed as rollers that receive a freewheel, not shown.
  • the freewheel is operatively connected on one side to the roller 17, 19 and on the other side to a lever 21, 22.
  • the levers 21, 22 are connected to one another via a pull rod 23 which contains at least one or — as in the case shown — two drive or push devices 24, a piston-cylinder unit being selected in this example.
  • a pull rod 23 which contains at least one or — as in the case shown — two drive or push devices 24, a piston-cylinder unit being selected in this example.
  • pull-out means 29, 30 are fastened to the supporting structure or frame 28 of the pliers outside the side walls 9, 10.
  • the pull-out means 29, 30 each have a tooth 31, 32 which is arranged on a plate 33, 34 attached to the piston rod of the piston-cylinder units 34, 35, not shown.
  • piston-cylinder units 29, 30 are advantageously used.
  • the movable piston of the piston-cylinder units 29, 30 is expediently screwed to a threaded spindle, not further described, which is driven by a motor or a crank 37, 38 for positioning the tooth 31, 32 depending on the height of the transferring flaps 13 is driven.
  • guides 47 are provided, as is shown schematically, for example, in the sectional view in FIG.
  • the flaps 13 slide into a receptacle 39, which is formed by side wings 40, 41 articulated at the point 42, 43, which can be freely rotated and are prestressed in the closed position by springs 44, 45.
  • the mentioned guides, designated overall by 47, extend from the lower edge of the side walls 9, 10 to the legs 25, 26, these guides being interrupted in the region of the upper edge of the movable leg 25.
  • the articulated wings 40, 41 are provided at least at the level of the legs 25, 26 in order to allow the flaps to be pulled out after the binding has taken place.
  • the reference numeral 50 designates the space for the successive loading processes of the flaps.
  • This space is advantageously easily accessible to the operator.
  • Known means, not shown, are available for the correct vertical positioning of the flaps facing this loading space 50.
  • the extraction teeth 31, 32 are designed as locking cams, in such a way that they are fixedly arranged during the downward movement or when the valve position is extracted, while they are in return swing with the tip pointing downwards in order to be able to cross the side walls 9, 10.
  • the teeth are positioned automatically by their own weight.
  • the pliers are opened and the pliers legs release the end flaps 13 now bound to the package.
  • the illustrated embodiment of the flap feeder 8 can easily be replaced by a different embodiment, since the essence of the solution according to the invention can be seen in that an feeder of the end flaps of the package is integrated into the pressing tongs.
