Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a printing material transport system for a printing press, as shown in DE-A-197 30 042 known.
  • Such transport systems are used to convey a substrate, in particular individual sheets of a substrate, from a printing unit of a multicolor printing press to the next, to turn double-sided to be printed sheets, or store finished printed sheets.
  • An apparatus for controlling a sheet guide in a sheet-fed press contains a cylinder with a lateral surface, actuators for blowing air and a distance sensor.
  • the lateral surface is closed, wherein the blowing air and the distance sensor are arranged outside the cylinder and are directed to a sheet which rests on the lateral surface.
  • a printing material transport system for a printing machine with at least one Bedruckstoffleit Structure and means for generating an air cushion between the guide surface and the printing material is proposed, which has the features of claim 1.
  • Advantageous embodiments emerge from the subclaims.
  • the guide surface can be designed in sheet form in the form of sheets and plates, wherein the guide surface for the pneumatic distance control of a sheet blowing and / or Saugluftötechnischen.
  • the air cushion or supporting air cushion may also be between ironing or pipes, wherein the narrow in relation to the arc surface surfaces are part of said guide surface.
  • the sensor arrangement comprises a capacitive sensor arranged on the guide surface.
  • a capacitive sensor arranged on the guide surface.
  • Such a sensor should be as small as possible, in particular as flat as possible, so that it can be arranged on the guide surface without disturbing the transport of the substrate.
  • Such a sensor can essentially be made up of thin metallic and insulating foils glued onto the guide surface.
  • the senor preferably has a measuring electrode and a shielding electrode surrounding the measuring electrode and insulated therefrom.
  • These electrodes can each be acted upon by a control circuit with AC signals, wherein the phase and amplitude of the two AC signals relative to each other are controlled by the control circuit so that the electric field of the measuring electrode is up to a typical measurement distance substantially perpendicular to the measuring electrode.
  • a substantially constant from the measuring electrode to the measuring location strength of the electric field and consequently a linear characteristic of the sensor is ensured.
  • gripper bridges which extend substantially across the width of the printing press, hold a sheet to be conveyed at its leading edge and pull behind him.
  • a timing circuit which receives a synchronization signal coupled to the printing cycle of the printing press and ensures that no distance detection takes place if any Gripper bridge is located in the detection range of the sensor.
  • Transfer drums 1,2 take over a sheet to be printed from an upstream printing unit and pass it to a counter-pressure cylinder 3. On this the sheet passes through a gap between impression cylinder 3 and blanket cylinder 4, in which it is printed and then transferred to a transport system, the majority comprises guided on endless chains 5 gripper bars 6.
  • the chains 5 run in Figure 1 clockwise, and transport printed sheets each on its underside hanging to a delivery stack 8.
  • a working with infrared or UV radiation dryer 7 is arranged on the transport system so that its radiation on the last printed Top of each bow drops.
  • a Bescherstoffleit Structure 10 is arranged in the form of a sheet-metal equipped with nozzles on the lower strand of the chains 5, which prevents uncontrolled dropping a sheet down.
  • the nozzle-forming perforations of the guide surface 10 open onto compressed air boxes 11, of which two are present in the system shown in FIG. These are supplied by a pump 12 via control valves 13 with compressed air.
  • the degree of opening of the control valves 13 can be controlled by an electronic control circuit, which is not shown in Figure 1 and whose operation will be discussed later.
  • FIG. 2 shows in detail a section of the guide surface 10.
  • the guide surface 10 consists of a flat sheet with perforations formed therein 9 (transport nozzles), which open onto a mounted under the guide surface compressed air box 11.
  • the three formed of a metal foil, mutually insulated, concentric electrodes 14,15,16 carries.
  • the innermost of the three electrodes represents a measuring electrode 14. It is in each case annularly surrounded by the shield electrode 15 and the ground electrode 16.
  • other shapes such as B. rectangular shapes, can be used.
  • the thickness of the electrodes is only a few micrometers.
  • the three electrodes 14, 15, 16 are each connected to outputs of a control circuit 17 via plated-through holes 21 insulated against the guide surface 10, which is mounted on a printed circuit board 18 on the underside of the guide surface 10 within the compressed air box 11.
  • the shield electrode 15 is provided.
  • the two electrodes are each acted upon by the control circuit 17 with two alternating voltage signals, which are largely identical in amplitude and phase.
  • the earth electrode 16, which surrounds the shield electrode 15 in a ring-shaped manner as shown in FIG. 2, can also be dispensed with if the electrically conductive guide surface 10 is held at ground potential in its place.
  • the control circuit generates a first AC signal by impressing an alternating current of predetermined magnitude and frequency to the measuring electrode 14.
  • the voltage amplitude of this signal is proportional to the reactance Xc of the plate capacitor.
  • A is the area of the measuring electrode 14.
  • a second AC voltage signal applied to the shield electrode 15 is generated by the control circuit 17 by means of a voltage follower from the first AC signal.
  • the measured AC voltage amplitude is compared in the control circuit 17 with a limit value. If the limit is exceeded, this means that the sheet 19 of the guide surface 10 is closer than allowed. In such a case, controlled by the control circuit 17, the power of the pump 12 or the opening degree of the respective compressed air box supplying valve 13 is increased to the air cushion formed by the exiting from the perforations 9 compressed air cushion between the guide surface 10 and the sheet 19 reinforce and thus bring it to a greater distance. Conversely, the thickness of the air bag is reduced when the measured distance exceeds a second limit.
  • the arrangement is designed as a two-point control system, that is, the measured value is compared with a limit value. If the limit is reached or exceeded, the air cushion is increased or decreased accordingly.
  • a controller with a predetermined setpoint. This represents a particularly high-quality solution.
  • a setpoint the distance X of the arch 19 from the guide surface 10 is defined.
  • the deviation from the setpoint position is determined as ⁇ ⁇ X.
  • the actuator of the controller is preferably adjusted in proportion to the deviation ⁇ ⁇ X.
  • control circuit 17 may impress an AC voltage of predetermined frequency and amplitude and measure the magnitude of the resulting AC current. Decisive for the detection is that values of the voltage and current, either given or measured, are present, which allow the conclusion on the reactance of the capacitor.
  • the senor of Figure 2 is essentially composed of only two layers of thin films and therefore has a thickness in the range of millimeter fractions, it does not appreciably affect the air flow ratios between the guide surface and a sheet 19 transported above. Such a sensor arrangement can therefore also be retrofitted into already existing transport systems for printing machines without difficulty.
  • control circuit 17 is coupled to an angle encoder, which is connected to any, synchronous to the machine cycle drum the printing press can be mounted and the control circuit 17 provides a synchronization signal.
  • This allows the control circuit 17 to inhibit the recording of distance measured values whenever a gripper bridge 6 passes the sensor, which would falsify the measurement results.
  • the measured value recording can be suppressed if no sheet 19 is in front of the sensor.
  • the control circuit 17 in addition to the synchronization signal information about the length of each processed sheet 19 receives. This temporary suppression of the measured value recording facilitates subsequent processing of the measured values; in particular a characteristic value formation z.
  • B. low-pass filtering from the digestion over the average distance between the printing material sheet 19 and guide surface 10 can be obtained.
  • Sensor arrangements of the type described with reference to Figure 2 may be provided in a transport system of a printing press at various locations to locally regulate the thickness of the air cushion there. They can be used not only on the boom, as shown in Figure 1, but also during transport of the printing material between two printing units of a machine, or in the sheet turner a printing press.
