Definitions

  • the invention relates to a closure for a rubber blanket a blanket cylinder of a rotary printing press according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • blanket cylinders the blanket cohesively on a carrier plate as Arrange blanket unit, the two ends with folded legs that are free of rubber blankets. These legs are in a slot of the Blanket cylinder by a suitable holding device held frictionally.
  • US 46 35 550 A discloses one with a carrier plate rubber blanket connected to a rubber blanket unit. On End of the rubber blanket protrudes beyond the carrier plate, to cover the distribution cylinder.
  • the invention has for its object a rubber blanket with a carrier plate for a blanket cylinder too create.
  • the rubber blanket according to the invention is in the drawing Hand of several versions and is shown described in more detail below.
  • a rubber blanket 1 is cohesive, for. B. by gluing, Vulcanizing etc. with a dimensionally stable support plate 2 connected to a blanket unit 3.

  • the ends 4, 6 of the carrier plate 2 are bevelled and are by means of a not shown Holding device frictionally in a slot 9 one Blanket cylinder 11 held.
  • Each end 7, 9 of the rubber blanket 1 is weakened in its thickness g and, in a first embodiment variant (FIG. 1), has an upper 13 and a lower 12 closure part.
  • the (lower) closure part 12 consists of a lower lip 12 which is hook-shaped in cross section and extends in the axially parallel direction of the rubber blanket cylinder 11.
  • the lower hook lip 12 of the leading end 7 of the rubber blanket 1 points in the direction of the outside 14 of the rubber blanket 1.
  • the second (upper) closure part 13 consists of an upper counter-hook lip 13, which is arranged at the trailing end 8 of the rubber blanket 1 and points towards the inside 16 of the rubber blanket 1.
  • Both hook lips 12, 13 overlap by an amount a, which consists of the width of the hook lip 12 or counter-hook lip 13 plus a gap 17.
  • This gap 17 is formed in each case by a distance between an end face of the lower closure part 12 of the end 7 and an opposite end face of the other end 8 of the rubber blanket 1.
  • the gap 17 is required in order to allow the elastic hook-shaped closure part 12 to escape, so that a hook edge 18 of the lower hook lip 12 of the rubber blanket 1 can positively engage in a hook groove 19 of the upper counter hook lip 13.

That is, compared to the first embodiment (FIG. 1), a further hook lip, which runs parallel to it, is integrally joined to a first hook lip in the circumferential direction of the rubber blanket 1. A back surface of the lower multiple counter-hook lip 24 is identical to the inside 16 of the rubber blanket 1. The multiple hook lip 23 of the end 7 points towards the outside 14 of the rubber blanket 1. The upper multiple counter-counter located at the end 8 of the rubber blanket 1 Hook lip 24 points towards the inside 16 of the rubber blanket 1.

Both closure parts overlap by an amount c, which is the width of a multiple hook lip 23 or a multiple counter hook lip 24 plus a gap 17 exists. Hook edges and hook channels of the closure parts 23, 24 are designed in the same way as is described in the first embodiment variant (FIG. 1).
  • the hook lip 12 and counter hook lip 13 or Multiple hook lip 23 and multiple counter hook lip 24 the blanket 1 can be made of the same material as the rubber blanket 1 exist. It is also possible to do this Hook lip 12 and counter-hook lip 13 or Multiple hook lips 23 and multiple counter hook lips 24 made of plastic and cohesively with the To connect rubber blankets. In particular, the Outside 14 of the trailing end 8 of the Rubber blanket 1 attached counter hook lip 13 or Multiple hook lip 23 with a rubber coating be provided.
  • the assembly of the hook lip 12 with the Counter hook lip 13 or the multiple hook lip 23 with the multiple counter hook lip 24 into one positive connection of both ends 7, 8 of the Rubber blanket 1 is made by superimposing and Compress both parts 12, 13 and 23, 24.
  • a separation of the two parts 12, 13 and 23, 24 can thereby done that at least part of the end 8 of Rubber blanket 1 arranged upper counter hook lip 13th or multiple counter hook lip 24 as a tab on the side over the outer surface of the blanket cylinder 11 survives. This tab can thus be parallel to the axis Direction of the blanket cylinder 11 are torn open. It is also possible to separate the two parts 12, 13 or 23, 24 by means of a between the parts 12, 13 or 23, 24 introduced slide.
  • each end 6, 7 of the rubber blanket 1 has lower and upper closure parts 26, 27 of push buttons 28 located in a row.
  • the ends 7, 8 of the rubber blanket 1 overlap by an amount d.
  • the lower and upper closure parts 26, 27 are directed towards one another in the aforementioned manner and can be detachably connected in an interlocking manner.
  • a thickness g of the rubber blanket 1 is not greater than a thickness of the two overlapping closure parts 26, 27 in their operating position.
  • the lower closure parts 26 are arranged at the end 7 of the rubber blanket 1 and are spaced apart from one another and axially parallel to the rubber blanket cylinder 11.
  • the lower closure parts 26 can consist of circular blind holes 1 which are open toward the outside 14 of the rubber blanket 1.
  • the upper closure parts 27 are firmly attached to the end 8 of the rubber blanket 1 and run at the same intervals as the lower closure parts 26 axially parallel to the blanket cylinder 11.
  • the closure parts 27 are mushroom-shaped and point towards the inside 16 of the rubber blanket 1 and essentially consist of a shaft 30, which is provided at its free end with an annular bead 32 "mushroom-shaped button". In the operating state, the annular bead 32 is engaged behind by the spring elements 29, 31 of the lower closure part 26, so that both closure parts 26, 27 are positively connected to one another.
  • the closure parts 26, 27 are separated from one another in the opening direction B or closed in the opposite direction. Opening the row of press studs can e.g. B. done in that the trailing end 8 of the blanket 1 has a laterally projecting over the lateral surface of the blanket 1 tab for mounting.
  • the lower closure parts 26 can also consist of a groove 33 running in the alignment of the holes (FIG. 4), which has a cross section that is the longitudinal section through a blind hole (FIG. 3) including the spring elements 29, 31 corresponds.

  • the edges 44 of the tongues 42 also taper from the outside 14 towards the inside 16 of the rubber blanket 1. It is also possible to keep the amount f for tapering the edges 44 of the tongues 42 lower in order to reduce the formation of a gap between the two edges 43, 44 (FIG. 7).
  • the bottom surfaces 46 of the recesses 41 and the undersides 47 of the tongues 42 are each provided with a covering, ie a hook covering 37 or with a loop covering 38 of a Velcro fastener 39.
  • the parts 41, 42 can in turn be opened by means of a tear-open tab attached to the end 8 of the rubber blanket 1 and located outside the outer surface.
  • the rubber blanket 1 can be made in one or more layers his.
  • the facing surfaces 40 and 45 of the tongue-shaped ends 7, 8 of the rubber blanket 1 can be provided with an adhesive 48 instead of a Velcro fastener 39 (FIG. 5) and thus be releasably or permanently connected to one another ( Fig. 9).
  • an adhesive 49 is provided which initially firmly connects the two weakened g thicknesses and tongue-like ends 7, 8 that are overlapped on at least 40 or on both surfaces 40, 45.
  • the heat-sensitive adhesive connection is separable, so that the ends 7, 8 of the rubber blanket 12 are free again by lifting.
  • each end 7, 8 of the rubber blanket 1 can be prepared as in the previously mentioned embodiment variant.
  • the overlapped weakened ends 7, 8 (tongues) are, however, without applying an adhesive 48; 49 placed one above the other and subsequently welded together, e.g. B. spot welded.
