Definitions

  • the invention is in the field of conveyor technology and relates to a device according to the preamble of the first claim.
  • the device is used for transfer from successively (serially) fed flat objects to a conveying away, the device removing the articles from a feed device takes over, continues to promote in a takeover direction and during the promotion in transfers a direction of transfer to the removal.
  • Devices of the type mentioned are used for example for merging from printed products to product groups, which then continue as units are processed.
  • Various printed products are used, for example Stacking by means of feeder, from winding by means of a winding station and / or continuously in Form of a shingled stream each fed to a feed point.
  • By merging emerging product groups are successively a plurality conveyed by feed points, each at each feed point of the emerging product groups that are being promoted, for example from above or a printed product is added from below.
  • a system for merging printed products has a plurality of feed devices (e.g. feeders, winding stations, Devices for conveying scale flows etc.), a device to promote the emerging product groups and for each feed point a transfer device on which transfer devices the products from the feeding devices and to the emerging product groups to hand over.

But the drum-shaped Conveyor device itself is a rather complex device. About the same thing also applies to systems with linear conveyors, in which a straight line continuous promotion of the emerging product groups in one main direction of funding of another, intermittent funding across the main funding direction is superimposed.
  • a space-saving arrangement of the feed devices along such a conveyor line it is necessary that the transfer paths extend in three dimensions (transfer paths with an angled floor plan or with side shift).
