Definitions

  • the Invention relates to a device for processing folded Printing sheets with at least one on a conveying path arranged workstation, one workstation Is a sheet feeder that separates and opens the sheets, with an endless circulating conveyor and a plurality to be loaded by the sheet feeder, the are arranged one behind the other on the conveyor and on which the printed sheets are each in the area of their fold a support edge of the respective support can be supported riding are, with the cushions at a mutual distance one after the other be guided past the workstation.
  • a device of this type is known from EP-A-0 551 055, which represents the closest prior art for the contracting states of France and Italy.
  • This device is used to collect and then staple printed products. Before being stapled, the printed products are supplied to a conveyor device with spreading rungs extending transversely to the transport direction.
  • Another saddle stitcher shows EP-A-0 681 923, but here the support edges of the supports extend parallel to the conveying direction. The removal of folded paper sheets from a stack and the depositing of such sheets on a conveyor device has been known for a long time, as shown in CH - A - 408 065 from 1961.
  • the one for Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Germany and Great Britain valid state of the art consists of post - published EP - A - 0 771 754, which falls under Article 54 (3) EPC, the one institution for processing folded printed sheets with a a workstation arranged a conveyor path, wherein the work station is a press sheet feeder that holds the press sheets isolated and opens, and with an endless revolving Conveyor and a plurality of the sheet feeder loading conditions, which are arranged one behind the other on the conveyor are attached and on which the printed sheets in the area of their folds in each case on a contact edge of the respective Pad are riding supported, the pads in mutual distance in succession past the workstation be and with the support edges of the supports extend obliquely to the conveying direction of the conveying member and form an angle of 30 to 60 °.
  • the task is to set up a facility to create the genus mentioned, which at simple Feeding the printed sheets allows a higher performance.
  • the task is one that is valid for France and Italy Version solved by a first set of claims 1 to 12 and on the other is the task for one for Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Germany and Great Britain valid version by a second Set of claims 1 to 10 solved.
  • the device according to the invention compared with a device with longitudinal transport according to EP-A-0 681 923, a higher output can be achieved with the same conveying speed, since the printed sheets can follow one another in a denser row. Since the support edges extend obliquely to the conveying direction of the conveying member, the supports can be loaded much more easily.
  • the invention thus enables simple loading on the one hand and higher performance on the other hand.
  • a stapling station and a card adhesive can also be used without problems in the device according to the invention.
  • the device according to the invention has, according to FIGS. 1 and 2, a plurality of feeders 1, in which, according to FIG. 3, printing sheets 6 are opened individually from a stack magazine 13 by means of oppositely rotating opening bodies 16 and 17 and are each deposited on a saddle-shaped support 4.
  • the saddle-shaped supports 4 are articulated on a conveyor element 16 with pivot axes 5, which are only shown schematically here.
  • Each support 4 is provided at the upper end with a horizontally extending support edge 8, which serves to receive an approximately centrally folded printed sheet 6, as the saddle-shaped support 4 5 shown on the far left in FIG. 3 shows.
  • FIG. 1 and 2 a plurality of feeders 1, in which, according to FIG. 3, printing sheets 6 are opened individually from a stack magazine 13 by means of oppositely rotating opening bodies 16 and 17 and are each deposited on a saddle-shaped support 4.
  • the saddle-shaped supports 4 are articulated on a conveyor element 16 with pivot axes 5, which are only shown schematically here.
  • Each support 4 is provided at the upper end with
  • the supports 4 1 - 4 5 or their support edges 8 in the area of the printed sheet receptacle are initially pivoted in the same direction and then in the opposite direction to the transport direction indicated by arrow 3.
  • the drive energy for these pivoting movements can be derived from the conveyor element 16 with a crank drive, not shown here.
  • the relative speed of the support edges in the interaction area of the printing sheet feeder 1 can be reduced to the value 0, which makes it possible to simplify the organs acting on the supports 4.
  • the saddle-shaped extend Pads 4 and the support edges 8 obliquely to the conveyor path 2.
  • the investors are in accordance with this oblique orientation 1 also aligned at an angle to conveyor path 2.
  • the stacking magazines 13 are then arranged so that an operator 18 for refilling the stacking magazines 13 on the side the device is, as shown in Figure 1.
  • the operator 18 can by an automatic refill device to be replaced.
  • a device with cross to conveyor path 2 extending contact edges would have to be automatic Refill device equipped with a complex deflection become.
  • the conveyor 16 which supports 4 in the direction of Arrow 3 transported, has two deflection wheels 19 and 20th and two drive wheels 20 respectively. 19 on. These wheels 19 and 20 are each according to Figures 1 and 2 in the direction of Arrow 3 offset according to the inclination of the pads 4.
  • the angle a indicated in FIG. 1 is greater than 0 ° and less than 90 °. It is preferably between 30 ° and 60 °. This angle is advantageously around 45 °.
  • Conceivable is, however, also an embodiment in which the supports 4 be loaded parallel to the support edges.
  • the sheet feeder can feed parallel to the side be arranged next to conveyor 16 and is also here a refill by an operator or an automatic Device possible in a simple manner.
  • the pads 4 can drive around the wheels 19 and 20 the distance between adjacent pads 4 is slightly larger than to choose the amount of these editions 4.
