Abstract

Eine Anordnung (1) von Walzen in einem Falzapparat einer Rollenrotationsdruckmaschine umfaßt eine Vielzahl von Zusammenführwalzen (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d) zum Transport einer Vielzahl von einlaufenden Bahnsträngen (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) entlang einer Linie (6), die im wesentlichen tangential zu der Vielzahl von Zusammenführwalzen (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d) verläuft. Eine erste Zugwalze (12) und eine zweite Zugwalze (14), die jeweils eine Beschichtung (20, 26) aus einem elastischen Material aufweisen, sind in der Weise zu den Zusammenführwalzen (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d) angeordnet, daß die aus den zusammengeführten Bahnsträngen (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) gebildete mehrlagige Bahn (2) durch einen zwischen den Zugwalzen (12, 14) gebildeten Walzenspalt (10) geführt wird, der im wesentlichen jeweils tangential zu der ersten und der zweiten Zugwalze (12, 14) verläuft.

Figure 00000001
An arrangement (1) of rollers in a folder of a web-fed rotary printing press comprises a plurality of merging rollers (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d) for transporting a plurality of incoming web strands (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) along a line (6) which essentially tangential to the plurality of guide rollers (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d). A first pulling roller (12) and a second pulling roller (14), each having a coating (20, 26) made of an elastic material, are arranged in such a way as to bring them together (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d) the merged web strands (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) formed multi-layer web (2) is guided through a nip (10) formed between the drawing rollers (12, 14), which is essentially tangential to the first and the second drawing roller (12 , 14) runs.
