Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a machine according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a machine of the type mentioned for separating objects arranged in a stack, which is powerful and easy to handle and can be easily inserted between different working processes.
  • the objects are fed horizontally to a transfer room, there isolated and then output vertically downwards for further processing. Due to slight adaptations of the machine, the output of the separated objects can also be made in other directions. Loading the machine with the separation material is possible without special measures and in particular requires no interruption in operation.
  • a particular advantage of the invention is that no individual adjustment is necessary for different thicknesses and formats of the articles, which results in easy handling and reliable operation.
  • a vertically adjustable in height console allows to adjust the height of fall of the isolated objects depending on their dimensions or due to the requirements of the subsequent further processing units arbitrarily. After leaving the machine, the items are immediately free and can continue are processed. It can be used autonomously or easily in conjunction with other units of a processing chain, such as a dispenser for envelopes for inserting or franking machines, or as a paper dispenser for folding machines or printers, or as a dispenser for a packaging line for Compact discs.
  • FIG. 1 to 4 show the basic structure of the inventive machine.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 each show a view from the side of the entire machine with a stack of articles 2 with a small format or of objects 5 with a larger format, which are passed to a further processing unit after separation.
  • the feeding of the articles 2.5 is carried out with a horizontally displaceable trolley 10 with a headband 6.
  • the headband 6 and another headband 29 at the opposite end of the stack prevent the tilting of the stack.
  • the items to be separated are envelopes 2, 5 fed from a stack.
  • Figs. 1 and 2 an envelope 2 and 5, respectively, has been singulated and dispensed.
  • the machine is supported by a console 30 with a vertical support 49. Their height above the base is by means provided on both sides hand screws 3 to 4 guides the wearer 49 adjustable. Double-sided covers 14 cover parts of the machine drive and protect it from contamination.
  • Fig. 3 shows a view from the side into the machine and Fig. 4 shows a view from above of the machine.
  • the viewer facing hood 14 Figures 1 and 2) and the side wall 7B of a frame 7 is omitted.
  • Cross sections 8A ... 8F connect the side walls 7A and 7B and form with these the frame 7.
  • the frame 7 parallel to the side walls 7A, 7B extending longitudinal profiles 50, 51 which serve as a support for the stack and as slide rails for the Trolley 10 serve.
  • at least one guide shaft 9 is inserted in the frame 7.
  • the trolley 10 is guided with two plain bearings 11 of the guide shaft 9.
  • a drive shaft 12 drives two on rollers 42A, 42B circulating belt 13.
  • the rollers 42A are arranged on the drive shaft 12 and the rollers 42B on a shaft 66.
  • the belts 13 are connected to the trolley 10 with fastening means 52.
  • the trolley 10 has a stop 32 and a spring system 23 with a spring 33 and a U-shaped spring holder 34.
  • the stop 32 is connected via the spring system 23 in all directions freely movable with the trolley 10 and is pushed against the trolley 10 during compression of the spring 33.
  • the sprung stop 32 in conjunction with a pre-separation stage 36 ensures gentle pressure in the transfer space 31.
  • the drive of the machine is only indicated for reasons of clarity. He is left and right outside on the side walls 7A, 7B distributed under the hoods 14. Details of the drive will be described below with reference to FIG. 7.
  • FIG. 5a shows details of the singulation in a sectional view and FIG. 5b in a plan view.
  • the separation has two superimposed identically constructed separation stages 37 and 38. These essentially consist of a separating element V1 or V2 and a separating roller 18 or 18A arranged at the same height.
  • the separating rollers 18 and 18A are arranged on separating shafts 17 and 17A, respectively.
  • the separating element V essentially consists of 3 parts, namely a sleeve 53 with rubber coating 60, an adjusting sleeve 54 and a wrap spring 55 mounted on a shaft 25 are arranged.
  • Sleeve 53 and adjusting sleeve 54 are preferably made of plastic. Their bore also serves as a bearing on the shaft 25.
  • Both sleeves 53, 54 are secured with a fine toothing 56 against rotation.
  • the sleeves 53, 54 can be extended axially. As a result, the toothing 56 can be adjusted until the wrap spring 55, which is slightly oversize and one in diameter with respect to the shaft 25 has larger Windungsreserve has reached the desired torque. Both ends of the wrap spring 55 are fixed to the sleeves.
  • the sleeves 53, 54 are then axially compressed and snap. The torque of the separating element V can be adjusted in this way as needed.
  • the separating element V can rotate in a direction of rotation to a certain desired torque, i. be set to a freewheel with a certain rotational resistance.
  • the sleeve 53 can rotate on the shaft 25 in one direction with a freewheel determined by the torque.
  • the sleeve 53 is blocked according to the principle of a wrap spring clutch and can not rotate.
  • the shaft 25 of the upper separating element V1 ( Figure 5) is driven by a propeller shaft 41. It is mounted in a holder 26 fixed to the frame 7 and can move slightly in the radial direction (for example by about 7 mm).
  • a spring 27 allows this movement and the necessary pressure force can be adjusted by acting on the spring 27 knurled nut 28.
  • the pressure between the separating roller 18 and the separating element V1 and the torque of the separating element V1 must have a certain relationship to one another. If there are no sheets in between, the singling roller 18 must still be able to drive the singling element V1 slightly, i. the separating element V1 must rotate with it. The correct function of the singling is ensured if, by appropriate adjustment of the knurled nut 28, the friction between two successive envelopes (B1 and B2 in FIG. 5a) is smaller than the torque of the singling element V1, i. In this case, the envelope B1 must grind on the envelope B2 and the envelope B2 remains together with the separating element V1 or is pushed back and then stands still until the envelope B1 has completely passed through the separating stage 37. In principle, the same applies to the separating element V2 and the separating roller 18A of the lower separating stage 38, in which the shaft 25A of the separating element V2 is driven by a cardan shaft 41A.
  • FIG. 9a shows the mode of action when a single envelope B1 enters a singling stage, for example into the upper singling stage 37 of FIG.
  • the separating shaft 17 and the shaft 25 rotate clockwise.
  • the separating element V1 rotates counterclockwise with an adjustable freewheel. If the roller 18 and the separating element V1 are pressed against each other by the spring 27 (FIG. 5a), the roller 18 forces the opposite separating element V1 to rotate counterclockwise.
  • FIG. 9b illustrates the behavior of a singulation stage when several items arrive simultaneously in this area.
  • the set torque of the separating element V1 is greater than the friction between the envelopes B1 and B2. Therefore, the separating element V1 pushes back the envelopes under the uppermost envelope B1.
  • the uppermost envelope B1 is pushed forward unhindered and passes over the underlying envelope B2.
  • the case of Fig. 9a reenters.
  • the second (lower) separating stage 38 consists of a separating roller 18A with a shaft 17A and a separating element V2 which is constructed identically to the separating element V1 of the separating stage 37.
  • the separating rollers 18 and 18A are in the running direction of the articles (in Fig. 3 and Fig.
  • the freewheeling direction corresponds to the direction of rotation of the separating shafts 17 and 17A of the separating rollers 18 and 18A. In the other direction, the separating rollers 18, 18A are fixedly coupled to the separating shaft 17 and 17A, respectively.
  • a preclearing stage 36 is provided in the machine. Details of pre-singulation stage 36 are shown in FIG. It consists of a pre-separating shaft 17B, of a pre-separating roller 18B free-wheeling in both directions of rotation on the shaft 17B and of a freewheel sleeve 39.
  • the shaft 17B is rotatably mounted on both sides on arms 20, 20A (FIG.
  • the arms 20, 20A are articulated, for example on the separating shaft 17.
  • the pre-separating shaft 17B forms a rocker 64 with the arms 20, 20A.
  • the free-wheeling sleeve 39 is disposed adjacent to the pre-dicing roller 18B on the pre-dicing shaft 17B. It is only in the direction of the objects to be separated, in Fig. 3 down on the pre-dicing shaft 17 B free-running, ie rotatable.
  • the Vorierzelungsrolle 18 B and the freewheel sleeve 39 each have a driver pin 40 A and 40 (FIG. 10), which are arranged axially at the same distance from the shaft 17 B and directed against each other.
  • the pre-separating roller 18B like the separating rollers 18, 18B, is preferably provided with a rubber coating.
  • the pre-separation stage 36 has essentially the following two functions: First, it controls the switching on and off of the feed of the trolley 10 via the rocker 64. Second, it ensures that the first (foremost) envelope from the stack in the transfer space 31 with a certain pressure in the upper separation stage 37 with the singling roller 18 and the separating element V1 passes (Fig. 3). Since the separating element V1 and the separating roller 18 have a greater common peripheral speed than the pre-separating roller 18B, the pre-separating roller 18B - driven by the envelope - rotates faster than the pre-separating shaft 17B. Therefore, the driver pin 40A protruding from the pre-separating roller 18B (FIG.

  • a side mounted engine 15 drives a motor shaft 16.
  • the separating shafts 17, 17A, the Vorierzelungswelle 17B and the feed of the trolley 10 are driven.

  • the shaft 17B runs in a ratio of 1: 3.5 slower than the shaft 17.
  • the drive for the trolley 10 has its origin in the separating shaft 17 and runs along the dashed line in the direction of arrow D to the shaft 12.
  • the drive for the separating shafts 17, 17A , 17B has its origin at the motor shaft 16 and runs along the dashed line in the direction of arrow C.
  • the branching of the drive takes place at the gears 102, 103, which are firmly connected.
  • a particular advantage of the machine drive shown is that only one motor 15 is necessary for all functions of the machine.
  • the spring 21 is tensioned.
  • the switch 22 is arranged with respect to the rocker 64 so that the pressure of the stack on the Vorzerzelungsrolle 18 B and thus on the rocker 64 can not exceed a certain value. This ensures that the foremost envelope of the stack is never pinched between the stack and the pre-separation roller 18B and thereby can block the singulation process.
  • the rocker 64 reaches the position ST2
  • the switch 22 switches off the electric clutch 19 and the movement of the trolley 10 is stopped.
  • the stopper 32 then only exercises a support function for the stack. As soon as the pressure of the stack on the pre-separating roller 18B falls below a certain value in the course of the singling process, the feed of the trolley 10 is switched on again by the switch 22 via the electric clutch 19.
  • the trolley 10 can be pushed by hand in both directions. This simplifies the loading of the stack, especially for reloading during operation of the machine.
  • the trolley 10 is initially pushed all the way to the stack and ensures at all times to keep the stack upright.
