Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for transporting printing material through a printing unit, for example a digital printing machine.
  • Substrate in sheet form - be it paper, cardboard or foil - is processed or printed, for example, in copiers or printing presses.
  • the transport is preferably carried out by spaced apart in the conveying direction individual bands trains.
  • the substrate is sometimes subject to very strong deflections, due to the compact design of these machines, so that heavier weights such as cardboard or film can not be processed because they would cause paper jams in the copiers due to their rigidity.
  • the sheets are separated with suction air at the feeder stack, grabbed by suction heads and then aligned.
  • the aligned sheets In a shingled formation, the aligned sheets, aligned by the drawing and side mark, reach the end of the feed table. There, the aligned sheets are gripped by pre-grippers, which accelerate the sheets to print speed.
  • the sheets are taken over by grippers which are accommodated on the peripheral surfaces of sheet-processing and sheet-transporting cylinders.
  • the sheets are transferred to the next printing unit after passage of a printing unit.
  • the equipment of the paper-carrying cylinder with grippers is very expensive and requires a very complex control by means of curve segments.
  • the WO-A-98/18052 discloses a printer with two printing units. The printing material is picked up at various points and fed via switches to the printing units.
  • the EP-A-0660195 discloses a printer in which the substrate run is controlled for double-sided processing.
  • the present invention seeks to realize a Beyakstofftransportharide which substrate from the feeder to the boom safely and correctly transported isolated and handled for different types of printing material and -grammatures with high guidance accuracy can be.
  • a printing material supply stack which are each equipped via a separate input for feeding the respective stacked substrate in the Betikstoff biopfad.
  • a printing material supply sequence can then be set in which, in extreme cases, one printing material sheet can be sequentially removed from one of the feeder stacks, so that an individual printing material sequence can be achieved during the passage through the individual components of the printing unit proposed according to the invention.
  • a double-sheet recognition which can be embodied, for example, as a capacitive or inductive or transmitted light transmitter, which is arranged downstream of a discharge station.
  • the discharge station within the Beyakstoff paspfades joins a synchronization area.
  • the printing material sheets are preferably acted upon by pairs of rollers and belt assemblies that seize the individual substrate sheets on both sides and promote through the substantially closed trained conveying path. Downstream of the synchronization path is a predrying module.
  • the individual printing material sheets which have passed the synchronization section can be introduced past the predrying module into a belt train extending essentially in a horizontal position above the predrying module. From there you will reach for one 180 ° deflection in a substantially horizontally extending conveyor line for further processing.
  • the printing substrate takes place essentially by both sides of the Betikstoff conspfads arranged roller pairs of the same or unequal diameter, depending on the configuration and desired deflection and by band trains.
  • Ribbons are preferably formed as central, elastic center straps that take the substrate substantially in its middle section, so that the workability of all given substrate formats in the present invention proposed printing unit is possible.
  • the printing material concept proposed according to the invention consists of a combination of the cooperating roller and center belt conveyance of the printing material through the entire printing unit. Center belts are used both in superimposed, the sheet position not influencing but only the sheet transport serving band assemblies, as well as within the turning module.
  • the printing modules are followed by two printing material trays and a branch branching to a turnout.
  • a sheet printed on one side can be ejected from the printing material conveying path, individual printing stock stacks can be formed, and a further 180 ° deflection is provided, as well as a subsequent turning path, with which the printing materials initially printed on one side are fed to a turning module.
  • the turning module applies the individual printing material sheets while maintaining their leading edge with exact positioning.
  • individual sheets can be fed to the turning module via the turning path, wherein the turned sheets can be introduced at a further junction into the conveying path bypassing the predrying module from the synchronization section.
  • the invention can be used in particular on a digitally operating printing unit which can operate, for example, according to the electrography or the electrophotography principle and in whose printing module a rotary body is received, on the lateral surface of which an electrographic, an electrophotographic, or in general terms, an image-carrying layer is formed ,
  • the single FIGURE shows the side view of a printing unit proposed according to the invention with three different feeder stations and extending in several levels Betikstoff disciplinepfad, a predrying unit, three different Stapeleinschleusungsein réelle, a double sheet control, a predrying module, and several branching points in Betikstoff paspfad containing.
  • FIG. 1 shows that the inventively proposed printing unit of the respective substrate to be processed can be supplied to three or more different investors.
  • the feeder A associated first input 26 contains in the illustration according to FIG. 1
  • a conveyor belt conveyor 4 which consists of an upper conveyor belt 4.1 and a lower conveyor belt 4.2. With the help of first conveyor belt, the longitudinal extent of lying under the conveyor belt pair 4 feeder stack B and C are bridged.
  • a pair of rollers connects, which takes over the substrate from the feeder A and enters the sheet transport path 7.
  • a double-sheet control 6 After setting a specific separation sequence at the individual stacks A, B, C and the corresponding entry of the respective printing material via the first input 26, the second input 27 and the third input 28 in the Beyakstoff conspfad 7 a double-sheet control 6 is provided.
  • the double-sheet control 6 can be designed, for example, as capacitive, inductive or else as transmitted-light control. If the presence of a double sheet detected by the double sheet control 6, the double sheet is passed in the context of a double sheet recognition by a first branch 24 in a double sheet discharge 8, from which it can then be removed. Correctly separated printing material sheets are transferred to the synchronization section.
  • the synchronization section 9 is followed by a second branch 10.
  • a bypassing of the second branching 10 downstream conditioning unit 11 can take place. If the switch 10 is activated, the printing material is not supplied to the conditioning unit 11, but arrives in a section of the conveying path which extends essentially vertically, in order to be introduced into a conveyor belt pair bridging the conditioning unit 11.
  • the conveyor belt pair preferably designed as a center belt, circulates around individual deflection rollers 21 and conveys the material samples discharged at the first point 10 via the conditioning unit 11.
  • cross conveyor belt pair is followed by a 180 ° arc descriptive deflection of Bedruckstoff functipfads 7; before it opens into a conveyor section 13 extending substantially in a horizontal position.
  • the second branching point 10 If, on the other hand, the second branching point 10 is not activated, then the individual printing material specimens which have passed through the settling section 9 enter the conditioning unit 11 and are acted upon and dried by the latter. Thereafter, the sheets undergo a 90 ° deflection to run in a substantially vertical direction extending conveyor belt 12.
  • the conveyor belt 12 consists of two cooperating bands 12.1 and 12.2. The belt 11 overlapping the conditioning unit 11 and the pair of belts 12 received essentially in a vertical arrangement unite above the predrying module 11, after which a 90 ° deflection into the conveying path 13 is impressed on the printing material.
  • the printing material sheets run through individual successively arranged printing modules 29, in which the upper side of the printing material is provided with a printed image.
  • the printing material enters a fuser unit 14, in which the printed image is fixed on the surface of the printing material.
  • the printed sheets can be laid in a tray tray 18; it is possible to supply the sheets printed in the printing module 29 to a stack tray 19; Furthermore, the printed sheets can be subjected to an approximately 180 ° -Förderpfadlenkung, where they are passed passively pairs of rollers 5 in a belt transport path.
  • the belt transport 20 consists of two cooperating belts; an upper belt 20.1 and a lower belt 20.2, which - as already mentioned above - can be designed as elastic center straps. This offers the advantage of easy interchangeability and better accessibility in the case of substrate transport disorders.
  • the center belts as used in the proposed printing material transport concept of a printing unit, also offer the advantage a high degree of flexibility with regard to the workable substrate formats and grammatures.
  • the printing material sheets After passage of the belt transport 20, the printing material sheets, which are in each case again introduced at the third branching point 17 into the belt transport 20, are already fed to a turning module 22 by the printing module 29.
  • the turning module 22 In the turning module 22, the front edge-accurate turn of the already printed on one side of the printing material sheet on its back.
  • the turning module 22 and the belt conveyor 20 are each provided with deflection rollers 21 around which the center belts 21 can rotate.
  • the provided after the printing module second branching station allows the consideration of subsequent processing steps for the printed copies.
  • a tray system record individual sheets and process individually, while in the third branching point 17 also associated stack tray 19 can be a stack-shaped preparation up to a preselectable stack height one or more pages printed substrate copies interpret.
  • the stackable display option can be used by these downstream processing machines.
