Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Bogendruckmaschine mit mehreren in einer Reihe angeordneten Stationen, zu denen mindestens ein Anleger, mindestens ein digitales Druckwerk und mindestens ein Ausleger gehören, wobei es zwischen dem wenigstens einem Druckwerk und dem wenigstens einen Ausleger einen gemeinsamen Bogentransportweg gibt, den jeder Bogen durchläuft, und eine Nachverarbeitungseinheit für die Druckmaschine, die mehrere in einer Reihe angeordnete Nachverarbeitungsstationen enthält.The invention relates to a sheet printing machine with several in a row arranged stations to which at least one investor, at least one digital Printing unit and at least one delivery belong, it being between the at least a printing unit and the at least one delivery a common There is a sheet transport path that each sheet traverses and a post-processing unit for the printing press, the several arranged in a row Contains post-processing stations.

Unter digitalen Druckwerken versteht man pixelweise ansteuerbare Druckwerke wie z.B. Laserdruckwerke oder Tintenstrahl-Druckwerke. Digitale Druckmaschinen, die für Mehrfarbendruck mehrere solche Druckwerke enthalten können, sind in der Lage, bei jedem neuen Bogen ein neues Druckbild zu drucken, wodurch es möglich ist, komplette Druckerzeugnisse wie z.B. Broschüren, Hefte oder Bücher mit geringem Aufwand auch in kleiner Auflage herzustellen. Zu diesem Zweck ist es sinnvoll bzw. erforderlich, alle nach dem Druck folgenden Arbeitsgänge in einem Durchlauf in einer Maschine ausführen zu können.Digital printing units are pixel-controllable printing units, e.g. Laser printing units or inkjet printing units. Digital printing presses for Multi-color printing can contain several such printing units are capable of to print a new printed image for each new sheet, which makes it possible to complete Printed matter such as Brochures, booklets or books with little effort even in to produce a small edition. For this purpose it makes sense or is necessary to follow everyone Carry out the operations following the printing in one pass in one machine can.

Nachverarbeitungsstationen für das Zusammenstellen und die Weiterverarbeitung eines Bogenblocks zu einer Broschüre oder dergleichen hat man in logischer Weiterentwicklung herkömmlicher Anordnungen bisher geradlinig an die normale Verarbeitungslinie angehängt, so daß die Bogentransportrichtung im wesentlichen während der gesamten Verarbeitung entlang einer mehr oder weniger geraden, jedenfalls in einer vertikalen Ebene liegenden Linie verläuft. Eine Druckmaschine, die auf eine solche Weise mit einer Nachverarbeitungseinheit für Broschürendruck ausgerüstet ist, kann nicht ohne weiteres für einfachen Druck umgestellt werden und umgekehrt, sondern es sind jeweils aufwendige Umrüst- und Einstellarbeiten erforderlich. Außerdem sind die konstruktive Auslegung der Druckmaschine und die der Nachverarbeitungseinheit stark voneinander abhängig, weshalb in der Regel nicht auf Standardkomponenten zurückgegriffen werden kann.Post-processing stations for the compilation and further processing of a Arched blocks for a brochure or the like are logical Further development of conventional arrangements so far in a straight line to the normal one Processing line attached so that the sheet transport direction essentially throughout the processing along a more or less straight line, anyway runs in a vertical plane. A printing press on a is equipped in this way with a post-processing unit for booklet printing, cannot be easily changed over for simple printing and vice versa, but elaborate retrofitting and adjustment work is required. Besides, they are constructive design of the printing press and that of the post-processing unit strong interdependent, which is why usually not on standard components can be used.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, mit einer Druckmaschine wahlweise entweder bedruckte und gestapelte Einzelbogen oder komplette Druckerzeugnisse herstellen zu können, ohne aufwendige Einstell- bzw. Umbauarbeiten durchführen zu müssen.The invention has for its object either with a printing press either produce printed and stacked single sheets or complete printed products can, without having to carry out complex adjustment or conversion work.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einer gattungsgemäßen Druckmaschine erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Reihe von Nachverarbeitungsstationen parallel zu der Reihe von Stationen der Druckmaschine versetzt angeordnet ist, daß sich auf dem gemeinsamen Bogentransportweg eine Bogenweiche befindet, welche die Bogen wahlweise dem wenigstens einen Ausleger oder einem Sammelbehälter zur Aufnahme eines Pakets von Bogen zuführt, und daß eine Verschiebeeinrichtung vorgesehen ist, die dafür eingerichtet ist, ein im Sammelbehälter gesammeltes Bogenpaket quer zur allgemeinen Bogentransportrichtung in der Druckmaschine in eine Eingangsstation der Nachverarbeitungseinheit zu schieben.This object is achieved according to the invention in a generic printing machine solved that the series of post-processing stations parallel to the series of stations the printing press is arranged offset on the common A sheet switch is located on the sheet transport path, which can optionally be used for the sheets at least one boom or a collecting container for receiving a package of Sheet feeds, and that a displacement device is provided, which is set up for this is a sheet package collected in the collecting container across the general Sheet transport direction in the printing press in an input station of the To postprocess unit.

Die Bogendruckmaschine kann leicht von einer Standardmaschine abgeleitet werden, da deren Architektur durch die parallel angeordnete Nachverarbeitungseinheit so gut wie nicht verändert wird. Die Nachverarbeitungseinheit kann relativ variabel und unabhängig von der Druckmaschine gestaltet werden. Einstell- oder Umbauarbeiten an der Nachverarbeitungseinheit können durchgeführt werden, wahrend die Maschine normale Aufträge druckt, d.h. viele Einzelbogen bedruckt und lose auf einem Auslegerstapel aufschichtet.The sheet-fed printing machine can easily be derived from a standard machine because the architecture of the postprocessing unit arranged in parallel as good as is not changed. The post-processing unit can be relatively variable and independent be designed by the printing press. Adjustment or conversion work on the Post-processing unit can be performed while the machine is normal Orders printed, i.e. many single sheets printed and loose on a delivery pile piled up.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform wird die Bogenweiche durch ein Falzwerk gebildet, wobei jeder Bogen entweder in einem ungefalzten Zustand dem wenigstens einen Ausleger der Druckmaschine oder in einem wahlweise gefalzten oder ungefalzten Zustand einem im Querschnitt trichterförmigen Sammelbehälter zugeführt wird, in dem gefalzte Bogen ein Paket aus ineinandergeschachtelten Bogen bilden. Der Ausgangszweig der Bogenweiche, der zum Ausleger der Druckmaschine führt, ist vorzugsweise so eingerichtet, daß er ein geradliniges Passieren des Falzwerkes erlaubt, so daß dicke Bedruckstoffe ohne Umlenkung durch die Maschine bedruckt werden können.In a preferred embodiment, the crossover is by a folding unit formed, each sheet either in an unfolded state to the least a delivery of the printing press or in an optionally folded or unfolded State is supplied to a funnel-shaped collection container in cross section, in which folded sheets form a package of nested sheets. The output branch the diverter that leads to the delivery of the printing press is preferably so set up so that it allows a straight passage of the folder, so that thick Printing materials can be printed without being redirected by the machine.

In dieser Ausführungsform enthält die Eingangsstation der Nachverarbeitungseinheit vorzugsweise einen im Querschnitt trichterförmigen Aufnahmekorb für ein Bogenpaket, der aufden Sammelbehälter ausgerichtet ist. Um ein gefalztes Bogenpaket im Aufnahmekorb in eine gewünschte Richtung zur Fertigbearbeitung zu drehen, wird vorzugsweise ein Schwert zur Klemmung des Bogenstapels in den Aufnahmekorb eingeführt, der dann zusammen mit dem Schwert gedreht wird. Das Schwert dient außerdem dazu, das gedrehte Bogenpaket zwischen Transportwalzen zum Weitertransport zu schieben.In this embodiment, the entry station contains the post-processing unit preferably a funnel-shaped receiving basket for a sheet package, which is aligned with the collection container. To a folded sheet package in the Rotate the basket in a desired direction for finishing preferably a sword for clamping the stack of sheets in the receiving basket introduced, which is then rotated together with the sword. The sword serves in addition, the rotated sheet package between transport rollers for further transport to push.

Die Nachverarbeitungseinheit kann z.B. Leimer, Hefter und Kantenschneider enthalten, um das Bogenpaket zu einer Broschüre oder dergleichen zu binden, die anschließend an einem Blockausleger entnommen werden kann. Der Blockausleger kann von Zeit zu Zeit geleert werden, ohne das Sammeln einer neuen Broschüre zu unterbrechen, so daß Non-Stop-Betrieb möglich ist.The post-processing unit can e.g. Contain glue, stapler and edge cutter, to bind the sheet package to a brochure or the like, which then can be removed from a block boom. The block boom can from time to time can be emptied without interrupting the collection of a new brochure, so that non-stop operation is possible.

Die Nachverarbeitungseinheit kann ein eigenes Gehäuse haben, so daß sie von der Druckmaschine getrennt und gegebenenfalls mit einer anderen Druckmaschine gekoppelt werden kann. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist die Eingangsstation der Nachverarbeitungseinheit in der Lage, Bogenpakete sowohl von links als auch von rechts zu empfangen. Dadurch kann die Nachverarbeitungseinheit zwischen zwei parallel angeordneten Druckmaschinen aufgestellt werden, von denen sie im Wechsel Bogenpakete empfängt und entsprechend besser ausgelastet wird. Dementsprechend ist es zweckmäßig, die Verschiebeeinrichtung in der Druckmaschine von vornherein für eine wahlweise Ausgabe nach links bzw. nach rechts auszulegen.The post-processing unit can have its own housing so that it can be used by the Printing machine separately and, if necessary, coupled to another printing machine can be. In a preferred embodiment, the entry station is the Post-processing unit able to pack sheets from both left and right to recieve. As a result, the post-processing unit can run in parallel between two arranged printing presses, of which they alternate Receives sheet packets and is better utilized accordingly. It is accordingly Expedient, the shifting device in the printing machine from the outset for one optionally output to the left or to the right.

Die in Figur 1 gezeigte digitale Bogendruckmaschine enthält auf einer Anlegerseite zwei Anleger, einen Hochstapelanleger 2 und einen Kartonanleger 4. Der Hochstapelanleger 2 beinhaltet dünnere Papiere für normalen Druck bzw. für Buchinnenseiten, und der Kartonanleger 4 beinhaltet steifere, dickere Papiere für z.B. Buchdeckel. Die Bogenausgabewege des Hochstapelanlegers 2 und des Kartonanlegers 4 münden gemeinsam an einer Bogenweiche 6, an der fehlerhafte oder doppelt eingezogene Bogen umgelenkt und in einen Fehl- oder Doppelbogenauswurf 8 geschleust werden. Korrekt eingezogene Bogen gelangen auf die Oberseite eines endlosen Transportbandes 10, wo sie eine Gruppe von vier Druckwerken 12 für Mehrfarbendruck passieren. Nach dem Druck passieren die Bogen eine weitere Bogenweiche 14, von der sie über einen Rücktransportweg 16 in eine Probebogenauslage 18 oder in eine Wendetasche 20 geleitet werden können. Ein in die Wendetasche 20 geleiteter Bogen wird mit der Rückseite nach oben wieder auf das Transportband 10 befördert, um die Rückseite bedrucken zu können.The digital sheet printing machine shown in FIG. 1 contains two on one feeder side Feeder, a high pile feeder 2 and a carton feeder 4. The high pile feeder 2 contains thinner papers for normal printing or for the inside of books, and the Cardboard feeder 4 contains stiffer, thicker papers for e.g. Book cover. The Sheet discharge paths of the high pile feeder 2 and the carton feeder 4 open out together on an arch switch 6, on the faulty or double-fed arch deflected and sluiced into a missed or double sheet discharge 8. Correctly fed sheets go to the top of an endless conveyor belt 10, where they pass through a group of four printing units 12 for multi-color printing. After printing the sheets pass another sheet switch 14, from which they take a return path 16 passed into a sample sheet delivery 18 or into a turning pocket 20 can be. A sheet passed into the reversible pocket 20 is turned upside down conveyed back onto the conveyor belt 10 in order to be able to print on the back.

Die fertig bedruckten Bogen laufen über einen gemeinsamen Bogentransportweg, an dem ein bedarfsweise aktivierbarer Perforierer 22 angeordnet ist, weiter in ein Falzwerk 24, das die Bogen entweder geradlinig durchlaßt oder in eine andere Richtung ablenkt, in diesem Fall nach unten, wobei ein nach unten abgelenkter Bogen wahlweise gefalzt werden kann oder nicht. Das heißt, das Falzwerk 24 bildet eine Bogenweiche, welche die Bogen von dem gemeinsamen Bogentransportweg je nach Druckauftrag auf einen von zwei getrennten Bogentransportwegen leitet. Geradlinig durchgelassene Bogen werden weitertransportiert, um in einem Hochstapelausleger 26 zu einem Stapel aufgeschichtet zu werden.The finished printed sheets run on a common sheet transport path on which a perforator 22 that can be activated as required is arranged, further into a folding unit 24, that either passes straight through or deflects in another direction, in in this case downwards, with a sheet deflected downwards optionally folded may or may not be. That is, the folder 24 forms an arc switch which the Sheets from the common sheet transport path depending on the print job to one of leads two separate sheet transport routes. Arches let through in a straight line transported to stacked up in a high-pile delivery 26 to a stack become.

Das Falzwerk 24 ist in Figur 3 und 4 detaillierter dargestellt und enthält eine Falztasche 28, zwei Falzwalzen 30 und ein Ablenkelement 32. Das Falzwerk 24 kann wahlweise einen von drei Zuständen einnehmen. In einem ersten Zustand wird ein von rechts ankommender und in der Falztasche 28 auflaufender Bogen nach Anschlag am Ende der Falztasche 28 zwischen den Falzwalzen 30 eingeklemmt, die sich in den eingezeichneten Pfeilrichtungen gegenläufig drehen und den Bogen mit dem Falz voraus nach unten befördern. In einem zweiten Zustand ist das Ablenkelement 32 nach unten geschwenkt, wie in Fig. 3 und 4 gestrichelt eingezeichnet, wodurch bedarfsweise Bogen nach unten abgelenkt werden können, ohne gefalzt zu werden. In einem dritten, nicht dargestellten Zustand ist die Falztasche 28 zurückgezogen oder zurückgeschwenkt, so daß die Bogen geradlinig in den Ausgangszweig 34 zum Hochstapelausleger 26 durchgelassen werden.The folding unit 24 is shown in more detail in FIGS. 3 and 4 and contains a folding pocket 28, two folding rollers 30 and a deflection element 32. The folding unit 24 can optionally assume one of three states. In a first state, one is from the right arriving and in the folding pocket 28 accumulating sheet after the stop at the end of Folding pocket 28 clamped between the folding rollers 30, which are shown in the Turn the directions of the arrow in the opposite direction and the sheet with the fold downwards promote. In a second state, the deflection element 32 is pivoted downwards, 3 and 4 as shown in dashed lines, which, if necessary, bow down can be distracted without being folded. In a third, not shown Condition is the folding pocket 28 withdrawn or pivoted back so that the sheet can be passed in a straight line into the output branch 34 to the high pile boom 26.

Nach unten abgelenkte Bogen fallen durch ihr Eigengewicht in einen Sammelbehälter mit V-förmigem bzw. trichterförmigem Querschnitt, nachfolgend Sammeltrichter 36 genannt. Gefalzte Bogen bleiben halb geöffnet im Sammeltrichter 36 liegen, wie in Fig. 4 gezeigt, in der ein erster Bogen B1 im Sammeltrichter 36 liegt, wahrend ein zweiter Bogen B2 kurz davor ist, zwischen die beiden gefalzten Seiten des ersten Bogens B1 zu fallen. Bow deflected downwards fall into a collection container due to their own weight V-shaped or funnel-shaped cross section, hereinafter called collecting funnel 36. Folded sheets remain half-open in the collecting funnel 36, as shown in FIG. 4, in which a first sheet B1 lies in the collecting funnel 36, while a second sheet B2 is about to fall between the two folded sides of the first sheet B1.

Nachdem alle zu einer Broschüre gehörenden gefalzten Bogen gesammelt worden sind, werden sie quer zu allgemeinen Bogentransportrichtung in der Druckmaschine, d.h. parallel zu ihrem Falz, in eine Nachverarbeitungseinheit geschoben, die parallel zur normalen Verarbeitungslinie der Druckmaschine angeordnet ist. Der Verschiebevorgang kann ohne Stop stattfinden, d.h. wahrend der nächste Bogen in die Falztasche 28 läuft.After all the folded sheets belonging to a brochure have been collected, they are transversely to the general sheet transport direction in the printing machine, i.e. parallel to their fold, pushed into a post-processing unit that runs parallel to the normal processing line of the printing press is arranged. The move can take place without a stop, i.e. while the next sheet runs into the folding pocket 28.

Wie in Fig. 1 und am besten in der Draufsicht von Fig. 2 zu erkennen ist, enthält die Nachverarbeitungseinheit einen trichterförmigen Aufnahmekorb 38, an dem außerdem ein Leimer 40 und zwei Hefter 42 angeordnet sind, Längs- und Querschneider 44 und 46, zwei Blockhefter 48 und einen Blockausleger 50. Diese Reihe von Nachverarbeitungsstationen erstreckt sich im Abstand parallel zu der Reihe von Stationen für Einzelbogenverarbeitung in der Druckmaschine.As can be seen in FIG. 1 and best seen in the top view of FIG Postprocessing unit a funnel-shaped receiving basket 38, on which also a Leimer 40 and two staplers 42 are arranged, longitudinal and cross cutters 44 and 46, two block binders 48 and a block delivery 50. This series of Post-processing stations are spaced parallel to the series of stations for single sheet processing in the printing press.

Ein im Sammeltrichter 36 der Druckmaschine zusammengestelltes und in den Aufnahmekorb 38 der Nachverarbeitungseinheit geschobenes Bogenpaket wird geleimt und geheftet, und anschließend wird der Aufnahmekorb um 90° gedreht. Das nun waagerecht liegende Bogenpaket wird durch Transportbänder an den Stationen 44, 46, 48 und ggf. weiteren Stationen vorbeitransportiert, in denen es fertigbearbeitet wird. Die fertigen Broschüren oder Hefte werden anschließend im Blockausleger 50 gestapelt. Der Übergabebereich des Bogenpaketes von der Druckmaschine an die Nachverarbeitungseinheit ist in Fig. 5 bis 8 detaillierter dargestellt. Fig. 5 zeigt einen vergrößerten Ausschnitt aus der eher schematischen Draufsicht von Fig. 2, in dem sich der Sammeltrichter 36 und der Aufnahmekorb 38 befinden. In einem der ebenen Schenkel des Sammeltrichters 36 befinden sich zwei langgestreckte Schlitze 52, durch die ein Bügel 54 hindurchgeht, der mit einem Schieber 56 außen am Sammeltrichter 36 verbunden ist (Fig. 6). Der Schieber 56 ist entlang Führungsstäben 58 den Sammeltrichter 36 entlang verschiebbar. Ein Motor 60 ist axial mit einer Spindel 62 verbunden, die sich parallel zu den Führungstäben 58 erstreckt und die an den Schieber 56 gekoppelt ist.A compiled in the collecting funnel 36 of the printing press and in the Receiving basket 38 of the post-processing unit pushed sheet package is glued and stapled, and then the basket is rotated 90 °. That now horizontal sheet package is transported by conveyor belts at stations 44, 46, 48 and possibly transported to other stations where it is finished. The finished brochures or booklets are then stacked in block delivery 50. The transfer area of the sheet package from the printing press to the Post-processing unit is shown in more detail in FIGS. 5 to 8. Fig. 5 shows one enlarged section of the more schematic plan view of Fig. 2, in which the collecting funnel 36 and the receiving basket 38 are located. In one of the flat legs of the collecting funnel 36 there are two elongated slots 52 through which one Passes bracket 54, the outside of the collecting funnel 36 with a slide 56 is connected (Fig. 6). The slide 56 is along guide rods 58 the collecting funnel 36 slidable along. A motor 60 is axially connected to a spindle 62, which is extends parallel to the guide rods 58 and which is coupled to the slide 56.

Wenn sich der Motor 60 dreht, wird der Schieber 56 durch die Spindel 62 parallel zum Sammeltrichter 36 verschoben. Der Bügel 54 greift an einem im Sammeltrichter 36 befindlichen gefalzten Bogenpaket an, in Fig. 5 bis 8 nicht dargestellt, um es als Ganzes in den Aufnahmekorb 38 in der Nachverarbeitungseinheit zu schieben. Der Aufnahmekorb 38 weist einen in Richtung auf den Sammeltrichter 36 erweiterten Einlaufabschnitt 64 auf, so daß das Bogenpaket leicht in den Aufnahmekorb 38 gleitet.When the motor 60 rotates, the spool 56 becomes parallel to the spindle 62 Funnel 36 moved. The bracket 54 engages with one in the collecting funnel 36 located folded sheet package on, not shown in Fig. 5 to 8 to it as a whole to slide into the receiving basket 38 in the post-processing unit.

Ein Schwert 70 ist zusammen mit der V-förmigen Führung 72 aufden Boden des trichterförmigen Aufnahmekorbes 38 absenkbar, d.h. in die in Fig. 7 gezeigte Position, um das Bogenpaket im Aufnahmekorb 38 festzuklemmen. Nachdem sich der Schieber 56 zum Sammeltrichter 36 zurückbewegt hat, wird das Bogenpaket um 90° gedreht, indem die gesamte Baugruppe aus dem Aufnahmekorb 38, dem Schwert 70 und der Führung 72 um die Längsachse 68 in die in Fig. 8 gezeigte Stellung gedreht wird. Danach stößt das Schwert 70 durch die Führung 72 und durch den offenen oder sich öffnenden Boden des Aufnahmekorbes 38 hindurch zwischen Transportwalzen 74 vor, wobei es das Bogenpaket mit sich führt. Die Transportwalzen 74 ergreifen das mit dem Falz voraus ankommende Bogenpaket und transportieren es über verschiedene Transportbänder weiter zu den Stationen 44 bis 50 (Fig. 1 und Fig. 2).The receiving basket 38 can be rotated about a longitudinal axis 68 by means of a motor 66. A Sword 70 is together with the V-shaped guide 72 on the bottom of the funnel-shaped receiving basket 38 can be lowered, i.e. in the position shown in FIG. 7, to clamp the sheet package in the receiving basket 38. After the slide 56 has moved back to the collecting funnel 36, the sheet package is rotated by 90 ° by the entire assembly from the receiving basket 38, the sword 70 and the guide 72 is rotated about the longitudinal axis 68 into the position shown in FIG. 8. After that it comes across Sword 70 through the guide 72 and through the open or opening bottom of the Receiving basket 38 through between transport rollers 74 in front, which it Bow bundle with it. The transport rollers 74 take this with the fold ahead arriving sheet package and transport it on various conveyor belts to stations 44 to 50 (FIGS. 1 and 2).

Anstelle des Falzwerkes 24 kann auch eine gewöhnliche Bogenweiche verwendet werden, wobei gebenenfalls ein Falzwerk in der Nachverarbeitungseinheit vorgesehen werden kann. Im Falle, daß vom Falzwerk 24 oder der ersatzweisen Bogenweiche ungefalzte Bogen nach unten ausgegeben werden, kann ein gebildetes Bogenpaket per Hand aus dem Sammeltrichter 36 entnommen werden. In einer nicht gezeigten alternativen Ausführungsform können die Verschiebeeinrichtung und die Nachverarbeitungseinrichtungen für die Weiterverarbeitung von ungefalzten Bogenpaketen eingerichtet sein, oder sie werden so ausgelegt, daß sowohl gefalzte als auch ungefalzte Bogenpakete weiterverarbeitet werden können. Eine weitere Möglichkeit ist, links und rechts der Druckmaschine je eine Nachverarbeitungseinheit für gefalzte Bogenpakete und eine für ungefalzte Bogenpakete aufzustellen. Instead of the folding unit 24, an ordinary sheet switch can also be used, where appropriate, a folder is provided in the post-processing unit can. In the event that unfolded from the folding unit 24 or the alternative sheet switch A sheet bundle can be formed by hand from the Collection funnel 36 can be removed. In an alternative, not shown Embodiment can the shifter and Post-processing equipment for the further processing of unfolded Sheet packets can be set up, or they are designed so that both folded and unfolded sheet packs can also be processed. One more way is a left and right of the press a post-processing unit for folded Set up sheet packs and one for unfolded sheet packs.
