Abstract

In a non-stop stack changing device, remaining-stack bars are pulled from the stack area one by one and out-of-line in relation to each other. To this end, a pull/push drive is provided, which makes it possible to push the remaining-stack bars simultaneously into the grooves of a pallet carrying a sheet stack. Furthermore, the pull/push drive makes it possible to pull the remaining-stack bars in pairs from inside outwards out of the stack area. In addition, the remaining-stack bars can be pulled in a first and second sequence in accordance with this model. An individual motor drive is provided for this purpose, which operates interlockingly on each individual remaining-stack bar.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a device according to the preamble of claim 1.

Es ist bekannt, in Bogenanlegern von Bogendruckmaschinen oder anderen bogenverarbeitenden Maschinen Einrichtungen für den automatisierten Stapelwechsel vorzusehen. Diese können aus rechenartigen Gebilden bestehen, sogenannten Reststapeltragvorrichtungen, die mit Schub- und Hubantrieben zur horizontalen und vertikalen Bewegung versehen sind. Solche sogenannte Nonstop-Stapelwechsler sind geeignet, beispielsweise während des Verdruckens von Papierbogen, d.h. im Maschinenlauf, Reste von abgearbeiteten Bogenstapeln von einer beispielsweise mit Nuten versehenen Palette zu übernehmen und auf einem nachfolgend in den Bogenanleger eingesetzten neuen Bogenstapel wieder abzusetzen. Bekannte Vorrichtungen zeichnen sich durch großen konstruktiven und montagetechnischen Aufwand aus und erfordern Spezialkonstruktionen der Bogenanleger. Des weiteren werden hierbei Vorrichtungen eingesetzt, deren Reststapeltragvorrichtung einen in die Nuten der Palette eingreifenden Rechen aufweisen. Dieser Rechen ist bei der Vereinigung des Reststapels mit dem neu eingesetzten Bogenstapel als Ganzes zwischen den beiden Stapelteilen zu entfernen. Das bringt hohe Antriebskräfte mit sich und beansprucht die der Schnittstelle nächstliegenden Bogen der Stapel sehr stark. Außerdem sind Rückhaltemittel vorzusehen, die ein Verschieben der Stapelteile verhindern und dabei die Stapelkanten stark beanspruchen. Außerdem wird die Bedienung des Bogenanlegers selbst stark behindert oder gar unmöglich gemacht. Der Bogenlauf ist beim Wechselvorgang schwer zu beherrschen, so daß immer wieder Makulaturbogen entstehen. It is known in sheet feeders of sheet printing machines or others sheet processing machines facilities for automated To provide stack changes. These can consist of rake-like structures, so-called residual pile support devices, which with linear and lifting drives horizontal and vertical movement are provided. Such so-called Non-stop stack changers are suitable, for example during printing of paper sheets, i.e. in the machine run, remnants of processed sheet stacks to take over from a grooved pallet, for example a new sheet stack subsequently inserted in the sheet feeder to discontinue. Known devices are characterized by large constructive and assembly costs and require special designs of the Sheet feeder. Furthermore, devices are used, the Remaining stack support device a rake engaging in the grooves of the pallet exhibit. This rake is new when the remaining stack is combined with the used sheet stack as a whole between the two stack parts remove. This entails high driving forces and demands that of the Interface closest arch of the stack very strong. Also are To provide retention means that prevent the stack parts from moving and stress the stack edges. In addition, the operation of the Sheet feeder itself severely disabled or even made impossible. The arc run is difficult to master when changing, so that again and again Waste sheets arise.

Es wurden schon Vorrichtungen entwickelt, die einige der geschilderten Nachteile teilweise vermeiden.Devices have been developed that overcome some of the disadvantages described partially avoid.

So ist aus der DE 3931710 C2 ein Non-Stop-Bogenanleger für Bogenrotationsmaschinen bekannt. Er weist eine Reststapeltragvorrichtung auf, die unterhalb eines vom Bogenanleger zur Bogenrotationsmaschine führenden Bändertisches angeordnet ist. Die Reststapeltragvorrichtung weist einen geschlossenen Rahmen auf, an dem Non-Stop-Stangen angeordnet sind, die als Kolbenstangen einzelner Zylinder mittels eines Druckmediums angetrieben werden können und die in Nuten einer einen Bogenstapel tragenden Palette einfahrbar sind. Die Non-Stop-Stangen liegen in eingefahrenem Zustand auf beiden Seiten des Rahmens auf und sollen nacheinander aus dem Bereich des Bogenanlegers entfernt werden. Über die Reihenfolge ist nichts ausgesagt. Die Überbrückung des durch die Non-Stop-Stangen bedingten Spalts zwischen Haupt- und Reststapel ist bei der Stapelvereinigung ein Hindernis für eine einwandfreie kontinuierliche Verarbeitung. Vorrichtung ist nicht anwendbar, da der Bogenstapel schräggestellt werden muß.DE 3931710 C2 describes a non-stop sheet feeder for Sheet rotation machines known. It has a residual pile support device, those below one leading from the sheet feeder to the sheet rotation machine Belt table is arranged. The residual stack support device has one closed frame on which non-stop rods are arranged, which as Piston rods of individual cylinders are driven by means of a pressure medium can and retractable in the grooves of a pallet carrying a sheet stack are. The non-stop bars are on both sides when retracted of the frame and are to be successively removed from the area of the sheet feeder be removed. Nothing is said about the order. Bridging the gap due to the non-stop rods between the main and remaining stacks an obstacle to a flawless continuous when stacking Processing. The device cannot be used because the stack of sheets is inclined must become.

Aus der DE 4203500 A1 ist ein Bogenanleger bekannt. Er weist parallel zum Bogenanleger und diesem stirnseitig zugeordnet eine Hilfstapeltragvorrichtung als eigenständige Baueinheit auf. Darin sind über einen gemeinsamen Antrieb einzeln antreibbare Spieße vorgesehen, die in Nuten einer einen Bogenstapel tragenden Palette einfahrbar sind. Der Antrieb weist einzelne Kettentriebe auf, die an die jeweiligen Spieße ankoppelbar sind. Für die Führung und Zugänglichkeit der Kettentriebe sind besondere konstruktive Maßnahmen erforderlich. Die Kettentriebe versperren den Raum vor dem Bogenanleger vollständig, sodaß dieser nicht zugänglich ist. Beim Stapelwechsel ist vorgesehen, die Spieße bei der Vereinigung von Haupt- und Reststapel zunächst an der Außenseite, dann in der Mitte und zuletzt im Bereich zwischen den bereits gezogenen Spießen aus dem Stapelbereich zu entfernen, sodaß sich eine sanfte Ablage des Reststapels auf dem Bogenstapel ergeben soll. Dies gelingt aber in der erforderlichen Genauigkeit nur bei schweren Materialien wie Bögen aus Metall, da die Bögen sich in verschiedenen Richtungen wölben und über einen großen Spalt absenken müssen, der durch die Spieße gebildet wird.A sheet feeder is known from DE 4203500 A1. It points parallel to Sheet feeder and associated with this end face an auxiliary stack support device as independent unit. In it are individual via a common drive drivable skewers provided in the grooves of a sheet stack carrying Pallet are retractable. The drive has individual chain drives connected to the respective skewers can be coupled. For the guidance and accessibility of the Chain drives require special design measures. The Chain drives completely block the space in front of the sheet feeder, so that this is not accessible. When changing stacks it is provided that the skewers at Combining the main and remaining stacks first on the outside, then in the Middle and finally in the area between the already drawn skewers from the Remove the stacking area so that the rest of the stack is placed gently the stack of sheets should result. However, this succeeds with the required accuracy only with heavy materials such as metal arches, since the arches are in arch in different directions and lower over a large gap that is formed by the skewers.

Weiterhin ist aus der DAS 1095297 ein Bogenanleger mit mehreren Stapelhubwerken bekannt. Er weist eine gabelförmige Reststapeltragvorrichtung auf, die mit in Nuten einer Palette einschiebbaren Reststapelstäben versehen ist. Die Vorrichtung ermöglicht die Übernahme eines Rests eines Bogenstapels von der Palette zur kontinuierlichen Zufuhr der Bogen während ein neuer Bogenstapel in den Bogenanleger eingesetzt wird. Die Reststapelvorrichtung ist mit einem separaten Hubwerk parallel zu dem Hauptstapelhubwerk innerhalb des Bogenanlegers verbunden, sodaß der Reststapel kontinuierlich anhebbar ist. Der Arbeitsbereich der Reststapeltragvorrichtung ist eingeschränkt. Die Reststapeltragvorrichtung behindert den Zugang zum Bogenanleger.Furthermore, DAS 1095297 is a sheet feeder with several Stacking hoists known. It has a fork-shaped residual stack support device on, which is provided with insertable residual stack bars in the grooves of a pallet. The device enables a remnant of a stack of sheets to be taken over from the pallet for the continuous feeding of the sheets during a new sheet stack is inserted into the sheet feeder. The residual stacking device is with a separate hoist parallel to the main stacking hoist within the Sheet feeder connected so that the remaining stack can be raised continuously. The The working area of the residual pile carrier is restricted. The Remaining pile support device hinders access to the sheet feeder.

Ziel der Erfindung ist es die Vorrichtung zum Stapelwechsel so zu verbessern, daß die geschilderten Nachteile vermieden werden.The aim of the invention is to improve the device for stack change so that the disadvantages described are avoided.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Vorrichtung der genannten Art so zu verbessern, daß die Vorrichtung auf einfache Weise in einen Bogenanleger integrierbar ist.The object of the invention is to provide a device of the type mentioned improve that the device in a simple manner in a sheet feeder can be integrated.

Die Lösung der gestellten Aufgabe ergibt sich aus den Patentansprüchen.The solution to the problem arises from the patent claims.

Vorteilhaft ist, daß voneinander unabhängig bewegbare Trag- und Distanzstäbe in der Vorrichtung vorgesehen sind, die zur Entlastung des Bogenstoffes nicht gleichzeitig, sondern zeitversetzt aus dem Stapelbereich gezogen werden. Die Antriebskräfte werden dadurch gering gehalten und der Aufwand für die Antriebe der Reststapelstäbe ist reduziert. Die Vorrichtung kann daher anstatt einer manuellen Non-Stop-Einrichtung an einem Bogenanleger eingesetzt und auch nachgerüstet werden, ohne daß aufwendige Baumaßnahmen und großer Platzbedarf entsteht. It is advantageous that independently movable support and spacer bars in the device are provided, which do not relieve the sheet material at the same time, but with a time delay from the stack area. The Driving forces are kept low and the effort for the drives the remaining stack bars are reduced. The device can therefore instead of one manual non-stop device used on a sheet feeder and also be retrofitted without complex construction measures and large Space is required.

In Figur 1 ist ein Bogenanleger 2 verbunden mit einer bogenverarbeitenden Maschine, beispielsweise mit einer Bogendruckmaschine 1 dargestellt. Im Bogenanleger 2 ist ein Bogenstapel S zur Verarbeitung eingesetzt. Der Bogenstapel S kann mittels eines Hauptstapelhubwerkes, das hier nicht näher dargestellt ist, im Takt der Bogenverarbeitung angehoben werden. Die Bogen des Bogenstapels S werden an dessen Oberseite vereinzelt und der Bogendruckmaschine 1 in einem Bogenstrom zugeführt. Im Bogenanleger 2 ist dazu eine Bogenvereinzelungseinrichtung 4 vorgesehen. Im Bogenanleger 2 ist weiterhin eine Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 angeordnet, die der der Bogendruckmaschine 1 abgewandten Stirnseite des Bogenanlegers 2 zugeordnet ist. Die Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 ist mit einem Gestell 6 versehen, in dem Reststapelstäbe 7 längsverschiebbar gelagert sind. Mittels des Gestelles 6 ist die Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 an einem Reststapelhubwerk 5 aufgehängt. Das Reststapelhubwerk 5 ist hier nur in seiner Lage, nicht jedoch in Einzelheiten angedeutet. Das Reststapelhubwerk 5 dient dazu einen Reststapel H im Bogenanleger 2 zu halten und im Takt der Bogenverarbeitung anzuheben. Daher ist das Reststapelhubwerk 5 auch mit dem Hauptstapelhubwerk synchron steuerbar. Das Reststapelhubwerk 5 besteht aus mit dem Bogenanleger 2 verbundenen vertikalen Führungsschienen 8, an denen das Gestell 6 geführt ist, und weist beispielsweise Hubketten auf, mittels derer die Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 anhebbar oder absenkbar ist.In Figure 1, a sheet feeder 2 is connected to a sheet processing Machine, for example shown with a sheet printing machine 1. in the Sheet feeder 2, a sheet stack S is used for processing. The Sheet stack S can by means of a main stacker, which is not shown here is shown to be raised in time with the sheet processing. The bow of the Sheet stack S are separated at the top and the Sheet printing machine 1 fed in a sheet stream. In the sheet feeder 2 is for this purpose, a sheet separation device 4 is provided. In the sheet feeder 2 is further arranged a residual stack support device 3, which the Sheet printing machine 1 facing away from the face of the sheet feeder 2 is. The residual stack support device 3 is provided with a frame 6 in which Remaining stacking rods 7 are mounted to be longitudinally displaceable. By means of the frame 6 is the Remaining stack support device 3 suspended from a remaining stack lifting mechanism 5. The Remaining stacking hoist 5 is only in its position here, but not in details indicated. The residual pile hoist 5 serves a residual pile H im To hold sheet feeder 2 and lift in time with the sheet processing. Therefore the rest of the stacker 5 is also synchronized with the main stacker controllable. The residual pile hoist 5 consists of the sheet feeder 2 connected vertical guide rails 8, on which the frame 6 is guided, and has, for example, lifting chains, by means of which the residual stack support device 3 can be raised or lowered.

In Figur 2 ist der Bogenanleger 2 in einer Ansicht von oben gezeigt. An den Bogenanleger 2 schließt sich in der durch Pfeile angedeuteten Bogenlaufrichtung ein sogenannter Bändertisch 20 an, über den der durch die Vereinzelung erzeugte Bogenstrom zu der bogenverarbeitenden Maschine z.B. der Druckmaschine 1 transportiert wird. Die Orientierung der Reststapelstäbe 7 ist in ihrer Anordnung in Bezug auf den Bogenanleger 2 dargestellt, wobei nur die beiden äußeren Reststapelstäbe 7 dargestellt sind und die anderen mit Wirkungslinien angedeutet werden. Die gezeigte Position ist beispielsweise die Bereitschaftsstellung vor der Einleitung eines Wechselvorganges bzw. die Warteposition außerhalb des Bedienungsbereiches des Bogenanlegers 2. Die Reststapelstäbe 7 sind dabei innerhalb der Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 geführt, sodaß sie in der gezeigten Position eine horizontale Stellung außerhalb des Bereiches des Bogenanlegers 2 einnehmen. Die Reststapelstäbe 7 sind in dickere Tragstäbe und dünnere Distanzstäbe unterteilt und abwechselnd angeordnet.
Die Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 mit ihrem Gestell 6 ist mittels der Führungsschienen 8 am Bogenanleger 2 geführt und vertikal bewegbar. Das Reststapelhubwerk 5 ist in seiner Lage angedeutet und befindet sich wie allgemein üblich an der Oberseite der Führungsschienen 8, beispielsweise am Rahmen des Bogenanlegers 2, greift von dort aus am Gestell 6 der Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 an und bewegt diese an den Führungschienen 8 aufwärts und abwärts.In Figure 2, the sheet feeder 2 is shown in a view from above. A sheet table 20 adjoins the sheet feeder 2 in the sheet travel direction indicated by arrows, via which the sheet stream generated by the separation is transported to the sheet processing machine, for example the printing press 1. The orientation of the remaining stacking rods 7 is shown in their arrangement in relation to the sheet feeder 2, only the two outer remaining stacking rods 7 being shown and the others being indicated with lines of action. The position shown is, for example, the standby position before the initiation of a change process or the waiting position outside the operating area of the sheet feeder 2. The remaining stacking bars 7 are guided within the remaining stacking support device 3, so that in the position shown they assume a horizontal position outside the area of the sheet feeder 2 . The remaining stacking bars 7 are divided into thicker carrying bars and thinner spacing bars and arranged alternately.
The rest of the stack support device 3 with its frame 6 is guided on the sheet feeder 2 by means of the guide rails 8 and can be moved vertically. The rest of the stacking hoist 5 is indicated in its position and, as is generally the case, is located on the top of the guide rails 8, for example on the frame of the sheet feeder 2, from there engages the frame 6 of the rest of the stacking support device 3 and moves it up and down on the guide rails 8.

Figur 1 zeigt, daß die Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 mittels der Führungsschienen 8 direkt im Bogenanleger 2 eingebaut ist. Das Reststapelhubwerk 5 ist einerseits während der Versorgung der Druckmaschine 1 mit Bogen heb- /senkbar und die Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 ist außerhalb des Verarbeitungsbereiches für den eigentlichen Stapelwechsel bewegbar.FIG. 1 shows that the residual stack support device 3 by means of the guide rails 8 is installed directly in the sheet feeder 2. The residual pile hoist 5 is on the one hand while supplying the printing press 1 with sheet can be raised / lowered and the Residual stack support device 3 is outside the processing area for the actual stack change movable.

Der Stapelwechsel läuft also wie folgt ab:

  • I. - Start bei Erreichen einer Grenzhöhe des Bogenstapels S

    • Zur Ermöglichung dieses Ablaufes ist in den Figuren 3 bis 5 schematisch dargestellt wie das Reststapelhubwerk 5 wirkt. Das Reststapelhubwerk 5 weist drei Paare von Hubketten 60, 61 und 62 auf. Die Hubketten 60 (strichliert) sind auf der vorderen der bogenverarbeitenden Maschine zugeordneten Seite des Reststapelhubwerkes 5 angeordnet. Auf dieser Seite ist auch die Reststapelhubschiene mit den Hubketten 60 gekoppelt. Sie liegt beispielsweise in einer Vertikalführung auf hier nicht gezeigten Auflageanschlägen auf und kann von dort mittels des Reststapelhubwerkes 5 abgehoben werden. Die Hubketten 61 (strich-doppelt-punktiert) sind der dem gegenüberliegenden hinteren Seite des Reststapelhubwerkes 5 zugeordnet. Die Hubketten 62 (strich-punktiert) sind dem Gestell 6 der Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 zugeordnet. Die Hubketten 60 und 61 sind über Kettenumlenkräder im Gestell des Bogenanlegers 1 zu einem Reststapelhubantrieb 63 geführt. Die Hubketten 60 bis 62 werden beiderseits des Bogenanlegers 2 über hier nur angedeutete Umlenkkettenräder in Traversen 64 geführt. Die Traversen 64 sind im Gestell des Bogenanlegers 2 mit der Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 verbunden und gemeinsam mit dieser mittels des Reststapelhubwerkes 5 an den Führungschienen 8 vertikal verschiebbar geführt. Die Traversen 64 weisen an ihren vorderen Enden Auflagen auf, auf denen die Reststapelhubschiene mitgeführt werden kann. Dazu wird die Reststapelhubschiene bei der Hubbewegung des Reststapelhubwerkes 5 und damit der Traversen 64 von ihrer unteren Endlage oder Wartestellung aus auf den Auflageanschlägen abgehoben und mit der Reststapeltragvorrichung 3 angehoben. Die Reststapelhubschiene kann selbstverständlich auch fest mit den Traversen 64 verbunden sein.To enable this process is shown schematically in Figures 3 to 5 shown how the residual pile hoist 5 acts. The residual pile hoist 5 has three Pairs of lifting chains 60, 61 and 62. The lifting chains 60 (dashed lines) are on the front of the sheet processing machine associated side of the Remaining pile hoist 5 arranged. On this page is also the Remaining stack lifting rail coupled to the lifting chains 60. For example, it is in a vertical guide on support stops not shown here and can of can be lifted there by means of the residual stacking hoist 5. The lifting chains 61 (dash-double-dotted) are the opposite rear side of the Remaining pile hoist 5 assigned. The lifting chains 62 (dash-dotted) are the Frame 6 of the residual stack support device 3 assigned. The lifting chains 60 and 61 are via chain deflection wheels in the frame of the sheet feeder 1 to one Remaining pile drive 63 performed. The lifting chains 60 to 62 are on both sides of the Sheet feeder 2 via deflection sprockets only indicated here in traverses 64 guided. The cross members 64 are in the frame of the sheet feeder 2 with the Remaining stack support device 3 connected and together with this by means of Remaining pile hoist 5 guided vertically displaceably on the guide rails 8. The traverses 64 have supports at their front ends on which the Remaining stacking lifting rail can be carried. For this, the Remaining stack lifting rail during the lifting movement of the remaining stack lifting mechanism 5 and so that the truss 64 from its lower end position or waiting position to the Support stops are lifted off and the rest of the stack support 3 raised. The rest of the stacking lifting rail can of course also be fixed with the Trusses 64 connected.

    Die Enden der Hubketten 60 und 61 sind auf der Traverse 64 mit einem verschiebbaren Lagerbock 65 fest verbunden. Auf dem verschiebbaren Lagerbock 65 ist ein Umlenkkettenrad 66 gelagert. Um das Umlenkkettenrad 66 wird die Hubkette 62 in einer Schlaufe herumgeführt. Die Hubkette 62 wird weiterhin über ein Umlenkkettenrad 67 von der Traverse 64 nach oben zu einem Umlenkkettenrad 68 an einer mit der Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 mitgewegten Halterung 69 oder am oberen Ende der Führungsschiene 8 geführt und läuft von dort wieder nach unten. Die Enden der Hubkette 62 sind einerseits an der Traverse 64 und andererseits am Gestell 6 der Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 fest angeschlagen. Infolge des Gewichts der Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 zusammen mit den Traversen 64 wird die Hubkette 62 über die Schlaufe um das Umlenkkettenrad 66 gegen die Hubketten 60 und 61 und damit auch gegen den Reststapelhubantrieb 63 verspannt.The ends of the lifting chains 60 and 61 are on the cross member 64 with a movable bearing block 65 firmly connected. On the sliding bearing block 65 a deflection sprocket 66 is mounted. Around the deflection sprocket 66 Lift chain 62 guided around in a loop. The lifting chain 62 is still over a deflection sprocket 67 from the cross member 64 up to a deflection sprocket 68 on a bracket 69 carried along with the rest of the stack support device 3 or on guided the upper end of the guide rail 8 and runs from there down again. The ends of the lifting chain 62 are on the one hand on the cross member 64 and on the other hand firmly attached to the frame 6 of the residual stack support device 3. As a result of Weight of the remaining stack support device 3 together with the cross members 64 the lifting chain 62 over the loop around the deflection sprocket 66 against the Lift chains 60 and 61 and thus also against the residual stack lift drive 63 tense.

    In der tiefen Position nach Fig. 3 sind die Hubketten 60 und 61 weitgehend ausgefahren. Der verschiebbare Lagerbock 65 mit dem Umlenkkettenrad 66 ist in dieser Betriebslage durch die Kettenschlaufe nach rechts gegen einen Anschlag fixiert. Das Gestell 6 der Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 hängt in den Hubketten 62. Es kann gegenüber den Traversen auch nach unten hin auf einem Anschlag aufsitzen. Die Hubkette 62 wird dann über die Kettenschlaufe am Lagerbock 65 gespannt.3, the lifting chains 60 and 61 are largely extended. The slidable bracket 65 with the deflection sprocket 66 is in this operating position through the chain loop to the right against a stop fixed. The frame 6 of the residual stack support device 3 hangs in the lifting chains 62. Compared to the trusses, it can also go down on one stop sit on. The lifting chain 62 is then on the chain loop on the bracket 65th curious; excited.

    Beim Anheben der Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 werden wie in Figur 4 gezeigt die Hubketten 60 und 61 vom Reststapelhubantrieb 63 eingezogen. Der Lagerbock 65 wird weiterhin über die Kettenschlaufe in seiner durch die Länge der Hubkette 62 begrenzten rechten Endlage gehalten. An der höchst möglichen Betriebsstellung der Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 im Stapelbereich laufen die Traversen 64 gegen Anschläge an, die hier nicht gezeigt sind. Nun ist eine weitere Hubbewegung der Traversen 64 zusammen mit dem Gestell 6 nicht möglich.When the residual stack support device 3 is lifted, as shown in FIG Lifting chains 60 and 61 are drawn in by the residual stacking drive 63. The bearing block 65 continues through the chain loop in its length through the lifting chain 62nd limited right end position held. At the highest possible operating position the crossbeams 64 run against the rest of the stack support device 3 in the stacking area Attacks that are not shown here. Now another stroke movement is the Trusses 64 not possible with frame 6.

    In Figur 5 wird schließlich die Außerbetriebstellung der Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 gezeigt. Durch weiteres Betätigen des Reststapelhubantriebes 63 wird über die Hubbewegung der Hubketten 60 und 61 der Lagerbock 65 auf den Traversen 64 nach links verschoben. Dabei läuft die Hubkette 62 über die Umlenkkettenrolle 66, 67 und 68 ab. Die Schlaufe in der Hubkette 62 wird dabei verlängert, während das am Gestell 6 befestigte Ende der Hubkette 62 eingezogen wird. Damit wird das Gestell 6 von den Traversen 64 abgehoben und über die obere Endlage der Traversen 64 hinaus angehoben. Das die Reststapelstäbe 7 tragende Gestell 6 der Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 wird so in eine Parkposition gebracht. In dieser Position ist es außer Betrieb genommen.Finally, FIG. 5 shows the remaining stack support device 3 being out of operation shown. By further actuation of the residual stacking stroke drive 63, the Lifting movement of the lifting chains 60 and 61 of the bearing block 65 on the cross members 64 shifted to the left. The lifting chain 62 runs over the deflection chain roller 66, 67 and 68 from. The loop in the lifting chain 62 is extended while that end of the lifting chain 62 fastened to the frame 6 is drawn in. So that will be Frame 6 lifted from the traverses 64 and over the upper end position of the Trusses 64 raised. The frame 6 carrying the remaining stacking bars 7 the rest of the stack support device 3 is brought into a parking position. In this Position it is decommissioned.

    Beim Absenken des Gestells 6 und erreichen der Traversen 64 verbinden sich die beiden Teile der Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 wieder und sinken unter der Gewichtsbelastung mit verspannter Hubkette 62 gemeinsam ab.When lowering the frame 6 and reaching the trusses 64, the both parts of the residual stack support device 3 again and sink under the Weight load with tensioned lifting chain 62 together.

    Das Reststapelhubwerk 5 ist in Einzelheiten auch anders gestaltbar. So kann die Hubwirkung der Hubkette 62 durch veränderte Umlenkungen im Bereich der Schlaufe vergrößert oder verkleinert werden. Hier kommt beispielsweise die Wirkung eines Flaschenzuges in Frage. Weiterhin kann die Verbindung sowohl des Lagerbockes 65 als auch die Verbindung des Gestelles 6 mit den Traversen 64 verriegelbar gestaltet werden. Dies ist aber nach den bisherigen Erfahrungen nicht erforderlich. The rest of the stacking hoist 5 can also be designed differently in details. So it can Lifting effect of the lifting chain 62 due to changed deflections in the area of Loop can be enlarged or reduced. Here comes the example Effect of a pulley in question. Furthermore, the connection can both the bearing block 65 and the connection of the frame 6 with the trusses 64 can be designed lockable. However, this is based on previous experience not mandatory.

    Die in den Bogenanleger integriert gestaltete Reststapeltragvorrichtung 3 mit selbststeuerndem Aufzug des die Reststapelstäbe 7 tragenden Gestelles 6 ermöglicht die Nachrüstung vorhandener Bogenanleger 2 mit der genannten Ausrüstung zum automatischen Stapelwechsel. Hierbei ist trotz erweiterter Funktionsmöglichkeiten kein zusätzlicher Bauraum erforderlich, wie dies bei anderen bekannten Vorrichtungen der Fall ist.The remainder of the stack support device 3, which is integrated in the sheet feeder self-regulating elevator of the frame 6 carrying the remaining stacking bars 7 allows retrofitting existing sheet feeder 2 with the above Equipment for automatic stack change. Here is despite extended Functionalities no additional installation space required, as is the case with other known devices is the case.
