Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for transporting two- and multi-part, flexible, flat objects, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • EP-A-0 767 125 One intended for transporting two- and multi-part, flexible, flat objects staple of this type is known from EP-A-0 767 125. It has two jaws pivotally mounted on an axle. These are brought into the closed position by means of a closing device and held in this position.
  • the locking device is formed by a pivotable bracket, which has two clamping body, each sitting on a rigid support arm. The two clamping bodies are, in the closed position of the clamping jaws, in a locking recess formed on the outside of the clamping jaws and exert a closing force on the two clamping jaws.
  • the clamp jaws By pivoting the locking device from the closed position to a release position, the clamp jaws are released and can pivot, for example, by spring force in the open position.
  • the clamps are intended for holding flat objects, in particular flexible flat objects, such as single-leaf and multi-leaf printed products, and can be guided for transporting the objects along a transport path. Due to the narrow design of the clip, it is particularly suitable for buffering the individually held items.
  • EP-A-0476859 discloses an apparatus for opening folded printed products.
  • a printed product is introduced into a receiving element and then detected and held by mutually moving, arranged on walls of the receiving element pressing areas. Subsequently, the held printed product is easily opened with a pre-opener and transported in a conveying direction to a rotating, helical opening element, wherein cooperating with the receiving element brackets are in the open position.
  • a rotary motion of the opening element completely autonomous opening element, the slightly open printed product is opened further.
  • the opening element engages in a partial opening of a printed product produced by the pre-opener, the respective pre-opener is withdrawn from the engagement. Then the clamps are moved to a closed position to keep the printed product open.
  • DE 640559C discloses a device for opening folded sheets with a gripper and a relatively hold open holding element, which is designed as a spreader needle. The opening and keeping open is effected by the relative movement of gripper and hold-open element.
  • CH-A-641113 discloses a method and apparatus for opening multi-sheet products, particularly printed products.
  • the product to be opened is thereby inserted with an open side parallel to an axis of rotation of a rotatable, roller-shaped cellular wheel in a compartment thereof.
  • a carriage which is displaceable parallel to the axis of rotation of the cellular wheel and which holds the product by means of gripper jaws before and during the entire opening process at the fold.
  • the axial displacement hits the product with a leading, perpendicular to the fold edge on a pivotable stop, which pierces into the product and retains a number of leaves of the product.
  • the retained leaves bulge with continued displacement of the product against the remaining leaves of the product, resulting in a partial opening.
  • this partial opening then engages a stationary, wedge-shaped hold-open organ. Subsequently, the pivotal stop releases the retained leaves again.
  • a clamp which is intended to hold an object, is assigned an open-holding element which holds open the object held by the clamp.
  • the open-ended article may be straddled on saddle-shaped pads, or inserts, samples, or the like may be inserted into the open-ended article.
