  • the centering device at least one in one Has prism engaging bolt. Due to the horizontal alignment of prism and bolt an exact horizontal positioning can be achieved on which it is particular arrives at imaging units. For an exact alignment in the Vertical can be provided that the centering device additionally at least has a stop. This is expediently in the vertical direction from that Prism spaced.
  • the locking device provides that this is at least one pneumatic element that the additional device against the Contact surfaces of the centering device presses.
  • An embodiment for carrying out the adjusting movements of the additional device provides that a drive and a curve are provided with a cam roller, these are designed such that they are the additional device at the beginning of the actuating movement the horizontal displacement and then the pivoting into the vertical position convey. Since for this embodiment only one drive, for example a single one Pneumatic cylinder, hydraulic cylinder or electric drive is required it is a particularly simple and inexpensive solution. Will in this embodiment only the straight part of the curve is traversed by the curve roller the horizontal displacement of the additional device into the horizontal maintenance position instead of. In this position, for example, a printing plate change or the like Work to be done. The cam roller runs through for larger maintenance work a curve part in which the cam roller is swiveled by 90 °. In this way the pivoting movement is also carried out with the same single drive in order to achieve the Approach maintenance position, in which the additional device vertically in front of a side wall of the printing unit, and this is released for major maintenance work.
  • a spring preferably a gas pressure spring, which supports pivoting movement.
  • a spring preferably a gas pressure spring, which supports pivoting movement.
  • Another embodiment in which the pivoting movement of the additional device is initiated by hand provides that the spring and the power transmission designed so are that the additional device automatically pivots into the vertical position as soon as hand a predetermined angle, for example 30 °, from the horizontal Location is pivoted.
  • a predetermined angle for example 30 °
  • this embodiment is an additional device, which intervene in the printing unit, it is appropriate to pivot into the Only release the vertical position when the additional device has been moved horizontally so far is that it no longer intervenes in the printing unit.
  • a drive for the horizontal displacement is provided. This drive is of course also possible by hand, but it is useful an automatic drive, preferably one or two pneumatic cylinders.
  • the additional device is an imaging device which is in the working position on the plate cylinder.
  • imaging devices can be a laser exposure unit for the plate cylinder, but also act as a device on the rubber or Printing cylinder is arranged to make impressions in the printed sheets, for example as consecutive numbers or other individual numbers for the individual prints Impressions.
  • an ink jet unit or a numbering unit serve.
  • a dryer measuring systems in the form of measuring bars, for example for register or color measurement.
  • Fig. 1 shows a first embodiment of the invention in side view. Two printing units 2 of a printing press 9 are shown. An additional device 1 is shown both in its working position 3 and in its vertical waiting position 5. Of course, it occupies one or the other position. Such an additional device 1 can be assigned to a specific or to any printing unit 2 of a printing press 9. In the working position 3, the additional device 1 can carry out work on a cylinder, for example on the plate cylinder 6 or on the rubber cylinder 7. In the example shown, it is an additional device 1, for example a laser unit, which images a printing plate 25 located on the plate cylinder 6.
  • the printing plate 25 shown shows which space must be released for this printing plate change
  • the maintenance position 5 shown is the vertical position that the additional device 1 must assume in order to carry out larger work on the printing unit 2.
  • the horizontal displacement 23 serves a linear guide 12, and the pivoting into the vertical position 5 serves a pivot mechanism 8.
  • Fig. 2 shows the same embodiment in plan view, it can be seen how the additional device 1 is in its working position 3 on the printing unit 2, usually engages in this, for example, to make images of a printing plate 25 located on the plate cylinder 6.
