  • the invention relates to a device for transporting flexible, flat products, especially printed products, from one at a reception point positioned stack to a delivery point, according to the Preamble of claim 1.
  • Such devices are suitable for stacking arranged products individually by means of suction elements and To pick up the grippers at one pick-up point Delivery point to transport and there their Carry out further processing.
  • a device of this type is an object, for example of Swiss Patent Application No. 1999 0998/99.
  • This The device has an orbital gear which is equipped with a plurality of suction devices and grippers assigned to one another in pairs is provided. While rotating the planetary wheel, one stack each by means of the suction elements Product raised, passed to the assigned gripper and then supported by a subsequent support arm of the Suction device transported to the delivery point.
  • the known device is large in size and especially for the transport of printed matter such as Newspapers, magazines and the like. there arises from the individually controllable suction elements and Grippers that are available in multiples, one accordingly high effort to manufacture this device.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object in smaller dimensions feasible, inexpensive Create device through the flexible, flat Products, especially smaller and lighter ones Printed matter, with a high delivery frequency of a stack positioned at a pick-up point a delivery point are transportable.
  • the inventive device for transportation of flexible, flat products, in particular Printed matter, from one receiving point to one Delivery point is determined, can be in smaller dimensions can be produced inexpensively. Products, especially those with reduced dimensions can be transported at a higher clock rate.
  • the increase in performance results from one device with holding members and support elements moved about an axis of reduced complexity and at the same time increased Functionality.
  • a separator is used in the stack preferably not around the axis, but in one easier moving path is moved.
  • the separator can be controlled with little effort, so that a increased working frequency and an improved Failure safety can be realized.
  • the support elements that for supporting and aligning items to be transported Serve products are simple in structure and cause no control effort.
  • Fig. 1 shows a side view of an inventive Device for the transport of flexible, flat Products 1, in particular printed matter, from to a stack 2 positioned at a receiving point serves a delivery point.
  • the device has one Separator 40 and three support elements 3x, 3y, 3z and three holding elements 4x, 4y, 4z on, driven by a shaft 5, in a first or in a second path B1; B2 in the same preferably constant Angular velocity guided around the axis of the shaft 5 and transport individual products 1b, 1c, 1d and support.
  • An orbital gear 52 is formed by the shaft 5 driven, on which the holding members 4x, 4y, 4z attached circumferentially at equal distances from each other are.
  • the products 1 to be transported which are stored in a stack 2, are held on the first edge 11 leading with respect to the direction of rotation of the rotating wheel 52 and thus the rotating direction of the supporting and holding members 3x, 3y, 3z or 4x, 4y, 4z and are individually detected and raised in the edge region of the second edge 12 trailing with respect to the direction of rotation of the idler gear 52 by the separating member 40 guided in a third path B3.
  • a holding bracket 15 and / or an adhesive can be provided by which the edge regions or the end faces of the first edges 11 are connected to one another.
  • the separating element 40 guided in the third path B3 is for sucking or gripping the stacked products 1; 1a in the exposed edge area of the second edge 12 suitable.
  • the third path B3 runs in such a way that the second edge 12 of a product 1 with against Wave 5 facing top 13 in the area of the first Path B1 in which the support elements 3x, 3y, 3z are guided, can be raised.
  • the first path B1, in which the support elements 3x, 3y, 3z are guided, and the second path B2, in which the Holding members 4x, 4y, 4z are guided, run in such a way that, as detailed below with reference to FIG. 2 described, products lifted by the separator 40 1 undermine by a support element 3, with the underside 14 facing the shaft 5 tangential to the second path B2 aligned and there by a holding member 4 on the Bottom 14 captured, detached from the stack 2 for Delivery point can be transported and handed over there. After the transport process is completed, the in Direction of rotation of the planet gear 52 originally trailing Edge 12 of the product 1 before.
  • the tray 6 has preferably a ramp through which the Holding organs 4x, 4y, 4z transported and released Products 1 each held in the same position and preferably additionally by assigned support elements 3 are supported so that they are supported by the transport brackets 7 can always be recorded safely.
  • the transfer at the delivery point can also be made to other types Sponsors take place.
  • the invention are the products 1 of the holding members 4 at the delivery point, as shown in Fig. 3, in a Conveyor gap 89 of a belt conveyor insertable, the two around Deflection rollers 81 or 91 and 92 guided conveyor belts 8, 9 having.
  • the product 1 introduced into the conveyor gap 89 becomes accelerated to a collision with the to avoid subsequent support element 3y.
  • a collision is also conceivable instead of that of Belt conveyor to accelerate product 1 that subsequent support element 3y to delay or controlled to displace towards the movement path B2, e.g. in the manner shown in FIG. 1.
  • the first path B1 can be the same as the second Lane B2 is circular. In the one shown in Fig. 1 preferred embodiment, the first path B1 runs however, such that one from the non-positive Connection loosened product 1d by a following Support element 3 on the underside 14 in the area of the now trailing first edge 11 until delivery of the Products 1 is supported.
  • the first path B1 preferably runs at the point of the products 1 from the holding members 4x, 4y, 4z are recorded and / or where the Products 1 released by the holding members 4x, 4y, 4z become, at least approximately tangential to the second path B2, so that the products 1 during the takeover or Transfer processes are advantageously aligned.
  • first Path B1 To realize a desired course of the first Path B1 are those driven by shaft 5 Support elements 3x, 3y, 3z, for example in guides 51, which are provided in the planet gear 52, or by a Rods mounted radially displaceable.
  • the radial one Deflection of the support elements 3x, 3y, 3z along the first Path B1 is preferably along by means of a backdrop of the support elements 3x, 3y, 3z, for example by means of radially inward spring force, set as a function of the angle of rotation of the planet gear 52.
