Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Greifer an einem bogentransportierenden Zylinder einer Rotationsdruckmaschine, insbesondere einen Zangengreifer an einer Wendetrommel.The invention relates to a gripper on a sheet-transporting cylinder of a rotary printing press, in particular a pliers gripper on a turning drum.

Aus der DE 24 14 998 A1 ist ein sogenannter Zangengreifer bekannt, der aus einem Greifer und einem Gegengreifer gebildet ist. Der Greifer bildet hierbei die Greiferauflage und der Gegengreifer den gegenüber der Greiferauflage verschwenkbaren Greiferfinger. Über die axiale Länge des bogentransportierenden Zylinders verteilt, sind in Abständen eine Anzahl dieser Greifer angeordnet. Die Greiferauflagen sind mit einer gemeinsamen Greiferwelle verschraubt. Zu diesem Zweck weist die Greiferwelle zumindest im Bereich der Greiferauflagenbefestigung eine Abflachung auf, auf welcher die Greiferauflagen bei der Montage der Greiferauflagen linear verschiebbar befestigt sind, damit Fertigungstoleranzen beseitigt werden können. Bei der Einstellung der Greiferauflagen liegt das Problem darin, daß sämtliche Klemmpunkte der nebeneinander angeordneten Greiferauflagen und jeweiligen Greiferfingern auf einer gemeinsamen Klemmpunktlinie liegen sollen, damit der zu transportierende Bogen gleichmäßig ergriffen werden kann, ohne Wellen zu bilden.From DE 24 14 998 A1 a so-called pliers gripper is known, which is formed from a gripper and a counter-gripper. The gripper forms the gripper support and the counter-gripper forms the gripper finger that can be pivoted with respect to the gripper support. Distributed over the axial length of the sheet transporting cylinder, a number of these grippers are arranged at intervals. The gripper pads are screwed to a common gripper shaft. For this purpose, the gripper shaft has, at least in the area of the gripper support attachment, a flattened area on which the gripper supports are fastened in a linearly displaceable manner when the gripper supports are installed, so that manufacturing tolerances can be eliminated. The problem with the adjustment of the gripper pads is that all the clamping points of the gripper pads arranged next to one another and the respective gripper fingers should lie on a common clamping point line, so that the sheet to be transported can be gripped evenly without forming waves.

Durch eine Linearverschiebung der Greiferauflagen, wie bei der DE 24 14 998 A1 ist jedoch eine gemeinsame Linie von Klemmpunkten für alle nebeneinander angeordneten Greifereinrichtungen nur schwer einstellbar, so daß kleine Toleranzen hingenommen werden müssen. Insbesondere bei Zangengreifern, die die Bogen sowohl in Schöndruckstellung als auch in der um mehr als 180° dazu versetzten Widerdruckstellung transportieren, verdoppeln sich die Abweichungen der Klemmpunkte von der gemeinsamen Linie der Klemmpunkte (Ideallinie).A linear displacement of the gripper supports, as in DE 24 14 998 A1, makes it difficult to set a common line of clamping points for all gripper devices arranged next to one another, so that small tolerances have to be accepted. Particularly in the case of pliers grippers that transport the sheets both in the face-to-face position and in the counter-pressure position offset by more than 180 °, the deviations of the clamping points from the common line of the clamping points (ideal line) are doubled.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Einstellmöglichkeit für ein Greiferelement eines Greifers zu schaffen, die eine Abweichung der Klemmpunkte von der gemeinsamen Ideallinie minimiert.The object of the invention is therefore to create an adjustment option for a gripper element of a gripper which minimizes a deviation of the clamping points from the common ideal line.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.The object is achieved by the features of claim 1.

Es ist bei der Erfindung von Vorteil, daß die Übernahme- und Übergabequalität der zu transportierenden Bogen in Schön- und in Widerdruckstellung verbessert werden kann. Ein weiterer Vorteil liegt darin, daß die Montagezeiten durch eine einfachere Justage der Greiferelemente erheblich verkürzt werden können.It is advantageous in the invention that the takeover and handover quality of the sheets to be transported can be improved in the perfect and in the reverse printing position. Another advantage is that the assembly times can be significantly reduced by easier adjustment of the gripper elements.

Die Torsions- und Biegesteifigkeit der Welle muß nicht durch Aussparungen zur Montage der Greiferauflage vermindert werden.The torsional and bending stiffness of the shaft does not have to be reduced by recesses for mounting the gripper pad.

Bei einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel liegt ein Schwenkpunkt für die Greiferelemente auf der Achse der Greiferwelle. Durch diese Maßnahme können die Klemmpunkte der Greifereinrichtung auf einer gemeinsamen Ideallinie eingestellt werden.In a preferred embodiment, a pivot point for the gripper elements lies on the axis of the gripper shaft. This measure allows the clamping points of the gripper device to be set on a common ideal line.

Erfindungsgemäß weist eine Befestigungsfläche der Greiferauflage eine konkave Krümmung auf, deren Krümmungsradius kleiner ist als der Radius der Greiferwelle. Durch diese Maßnahme wird vermieden, daß die Greiferauflage beim Befestigen an der Greiferwelle eine Schwenkung, z. B. in Schraubrichtung erfährt, d. h. daß die Klemmlinie einer Greiferauflage nach dem Anziehen der Schraube ohne weitere Einstellmaßnahmen parallel zur Greiferwelle bzw. Achse ausgerichtet ist.According to the invention, a fastening surface of the gripper support has a concave curvature, the radius of curvature of which is smaller than the radius of the gripper shaft. By this measure it is avoided that the gripper pad pivoting, for. B. in the screwing direction, d. H. that the clamping line of a gripper pad is aligned parallel to the gripper shaft or axis after tightening the screw without further adjustment measures.

Die Befestigungsflächen können eine hohe Rauhigkeit aufweisen, wodurch der Klemmsitz auf der Welle verbessert wird. Ein ungewolltes Lösen der Greiferauflage von der Greiferwelle wird dadurch verhindert. Weitere Ausführungen und Merkmale der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen enthalten.The mounting surfaces can have a high roughness, which improves the clamping fit on the shaft. An unwanted loosening of the gripper pad from this prevents the gripper shaft. Further embodiments and features of the invention are contained in the subclaims.

2 shows a schematic representation of the gripper according to the invention in section,

Eine Bogenrotationsdruckmaschine weist u. a. eine sogenannte Wendetrommel auf, die den zu bedruckenden oder bereits bedruckten Bogen sowohl im Schöndruck transportiert, d. h. der Bogen wird mittels vorgesehener Greifereinrichtungen an der Vorderkante von einem vorgeordneten Zylinder übernommen und an der Vorderkante an eine Greifereinrichtung eines nachgeordneten Zylinders übergeben, als auch im Widerdruck transportiert,
d. h. die Bogen werden vom vorgeordneten Zylinder an der Hinterkante übernommen und gewendet an den nachfolgenden Zylinder mit der Hinterkante zuerst übergeben.
A sheet-fed rotary printing press has, among other things, a so-called reversing drum, which transports the sheet to be printed or already printed in face-to-face printing, i.e. the sheet is taken over by a preceding cylinder by means of provided gripper devices and transferred to a gripper device of a downstream cylinder at the front edge as also transported in reverse printing,
ie the sheets are taken from the upstream cylinder at the rear edge and turned over to the subsequent cylinder with the rear edge first.

Im ersten Ausführungsbeispiel ist dafür ein sogenannter Zangengreifer 1 vorgesehen. Der Zangengreifer 1 weist eine erste Zange 2 auf, die als Greiferauflage dient und eine mit der Greiferauflage zusammenwirkende Zange 3 auf, die als Greiferfinger ausgebildet ist.In the first embodiment, a so-called pliers gripper 1 is provided for this. The gripper 1 has a first gripper 2, which serves as a gripper support and a gripper 3 which interacts with the gripper support and is designed as a gripper finger.

Über die axiale Länge der Transport- oder Wendetrommel verteilt, sind voneinander beabstandet eine größere Anzahl, z. B. 20 Zangengreifer 1 angeordnet Hierbei sitzen die Greiferauflagen 2 fest auf einer gemeinsamen Greiferwelle 4 und die Greiferfinger 3 sitzen schwenkbar gelagert auf einem gemeinsamen Greiferrohr 6. Die Greiferfinger 3 sind jeweils mittels eines Anschlages 7 über eine Druckfeder 8 an einem fest am Greiferrohr 6 angeordneten Widerlager 9 abgestützt. Die Greiferauflagen 2 weisen jeweils an einem der Greiferauflagenspitze 17 abgewandten Ende eine Bohrung 11 auf, die im Durchmesser etwas größer ist, als eine Befestigungsschraube 12 für die Greiferauflage 2, so daß eine Einstellung der Greiferauflage 2, insbesondere während der Montage bezüglich der Greiferwelle 4 ermöglicht wird.Distributed over the axial length of the transport or turning drum, a larger number, z. B. 20 pliers gripper 1 arranged Here, the gripper pads 2 are fixed on a common gripper shaft 4 and the gripper fingers 3 are pivotally mounted on a common gripper tube 6. The gripper fingers 3 are each arranged by means of a stop 7 via a compression spring 8 on a fixed to the gripper tube 6 Abutment 9 supported. The gripper pads 2 each have at one end facing away from the gripper tip 17 a bore 11 which is slightly larger in diameter than a fastening screw 12 for the gripper pad 2, so that the gripper pad 2 can be adjusted, in particular during assembly with respect to the gripper shaft 4 becomes.

An einem oberen Ende der Bohrung 11 weist diese einen Kugelsitz 11a auf, in welchem zum Lageausgleich von Befestigungsschraube 12 und Greiferauflage 2 eine Kugelscheibe 10 angeordnet ist.At an upper end of the bore 11, this has a ball seat 11a, in which a spherical washer 10 is arranged to compensate for the position of the fastening screw 12 and the gripper support 2.

Die Greiferauflage 2 weist eine konkav geformte, rauhe, z. B. sandgestrahlte Sitzfläche 13 auf, welche der Krümmung 14 des Greiferwellendurchmessers angepaßt ist. Die Krümmung der Sitzfläche 13 weist einen kleineren Radius r auf, als der Radius R des Greiferwellendurchmessers. Durch diese Maßnahme sitzt die Greiferauflage 2 bereits bei der Montage im unbefestigten Zustand mit einer zweifachen Linienberührung parallel zur Achse 16 auf der Greiferwelle 4 auf. Eine Ausrichtung der Greiferfauflage 2 braucht nur noch in axialer Richtung und in Umfangsrichtung der Greiferwelle 4 vorgenommen zu werden. Beim Festziehen der Befestigungsschraube 12 wird die Sitzfläche 13 unter Spannung an den Umfang der Greiferwelle 4 angepreßt Ein Schrägstellen der Greiferauflagen 2 beim Festschrauben, z. B. durch das aufgebrachte Drehmoment, wird hierbei erfindungsgemäß vermieden.The gripper pad 2 has a concave, rough, z. B. sandblasted seat 13, which is adapted to the curvature 14 of the gripper shaft diameter. The curvature of the seat surface 13 has a smaller radius r than the radius R of the gripper shaft diameter. As a result of this measure, the gripper pad 2 is already seated on the gripper shaft 4 parallel to the axis 16 during assembly in the unsecured state with a double line contact. The gripper support 2 only needs to be aligned in the axial direction and in the circumferential direction of the gripper shaft 4. When tightening the fastening screw 12, the seat 13 is pressed under tension on the circumference of the gripper shaft 4 A Tilting the gripper pads 2 when screwing down, e.g. B. by the applied torque is avoided according to the invention.

Das Einstellen sämtlicher Greiferauflagen 2 erfolgt auf dem Radius R um die Achse 16 der Greiferwelle 4. Hierbei bildet die Achse 16 einen Schwenkpunkt S1 für die Umfangsausrichtung der Greiferauflage 2. Idealerweise sollen sämtliche axial nebeneinander angeordneten Greiferauflagenspitzen 17 auf einer gemeinsamen Klemmpunktlinie 18 parallel zur Greiferwelle 4 bzw. Achse 16 liegen.All gripper pads 2 are set on the radius R around the axis 16 of the gripper shaft 4. Here, the axis 16 forms a pivot point S 1 for the circumferential orientation of the gripper pad 2. Ideally, all of the gripper pad tips 17 arranged axially next to one another should be on a common clamping point line 18 parallel to the gripper shaft 4 or axis 16 are.
