Definitions

  • the invention lies in the field of conveyor technology and relates to a device the preamble of the independent claim.
  • the device is used individually conveying flat objects in a dense flow, that means in a flow in which the objects are conveyed one after the other are spaced (measured in the direction of conveyance) from each other, which is usually are smaller than the dimensions of the objects parallel to their planar extent.
  • Conveying flows of the type mentioned are particularly common in further processing of printed products, i.e. in the area of mailroom technology, where one Printing machine, for example, printing products designed in different time periods combined into groups, edited, rearranged and / or packaged in such a way that they can be made available for dispatch at an exit.
  • one Printing machine for example, printing products designed in different time periods combined into groups, edited, rearranged and / or packaged in such a way that they can be made available for dispatch at an exit.
  • the printed products are, for example, in shingled streams promoted in which the products partially overlapped loosely on one another Support document lying on or pressed onto such with suitable means become.
  • the distance between the products corresponds to that Distance between the leading edges of two successive products.
  • the leading ones are Edges directed towards the bottom or the top and is the one for folded products Folding edge (waistband) or the edge (flower) opposite the folding edge.
  • the orientation of the printed products in a shingled stream can, for example be changed by twisting or redirecting the stream of shingles, whereby a stream with underlying, leading edges a stream with underlying, leading edges can be formed. Thereby also the Print products reversed (top side is turned down). By reversing the direction of conveyance of a shingled stream (rewind and unwind) the leading edges to the trailing edges, the products their Maintain position (top remains up), but the product order reversed becomes. For other rearrangements, each product is usually a product of a shingled stream seized individually, reoriented and put back into the stream, which is device-wise is very expensive.
  • Dense flow rates are also frequently used in mailroom technology of individually conveyed printed products, i.e. flow rates in which each of the successively conveyed printed products is held by a gripper becomes.
  • the grippers can be moved one behind the other along a conveying path Transport elements, for example arranged on the links of a transport chain and each hold and hold a flat object in the area of an edge, for example in a middle area of an edge.
  • the grippers are usually arranged symmetrically with respect to the conveying path of the transport elements, that is, there is a level in which the conveying path of the transport elements lies and which the grippers conveyed one after the other into two functionally identical parts cuts. In many cases, the grippers are controlled or parallel to the conveying direction freely pivotable.
  • the transport elements usually move in guide channels guided, the guide channels are curvy and possibly also have twists.
  • Printed products conveyed in this way can be perpendicular to the conveying path be arranged (e.g. they hang vertically from the gripper when conveyed horizontally down) so that even if the distances between the products are smaller than the areal extent of the products, not from an overlap and not leading and trailing edges can be mentioned.
  • the products in the flow but not exactly perpendicular to the direction of flow they overlap one another like in a shingled stream and have leading ones and trailing edges.
  • the object of the invention to provide a device for sustained conveyance to create flat objects in a dense flow, with which Device it becomes possible during the promotion in the simplest way yet to realize more different reorientations of the flat objects than this with known devices that serve the same purpose is possible.
  • the device should be universally applicable for a wide variety of applications.
  • the device should not be significantly more complicated and complex be known as these devices for sustained conveyance of flat objects are.

  • Part of the transport element 1 is a rolling or sliding part 4 formed, which rolls or slides in a guide channel 5.
  • the gripper arm 2 is for example on a part 6 of the transport element protruding from the guide channel 5 1 attached
  • the gripper arm 2 with the gripper 3 is arranged asymmetrically on the transport element 1, this means that the conveying path F is spaced apart by a radius d from a plane of symmetry S, the gripper 3 in two functionally equivalent Cuts halves (or divides a plurality of grippers into equal parts).
  • the projection d is such that the grippers have to grip and hold it flat objects 10 to be conveyed, if possible not with the guide channel 5 in Come in contact. Should the objects, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, in middle area of an edge, d should be greater than half the length the gripped edge.

  • the gripper arm 2 has two coaxial, relatively limited rotatable arm parts 2.1 and 2.2, with on each of the arm parts 2.1 and 2.2 a gripper jaw 3.1 and 3.2 is attached such that the gripper 3 by a relative rotation of the arm parts 2.1 and 2.2 can be operated (opened and closed).

  • Figures 3 and 4 can also be used as a hypothetical snapshot of a flow the flow in which the gripper positions are continuously understood to be changed. If a gripper actuation is superimposed on this hypothesis, by which closed the grippers in a first position and in a second, from the first downstream position are opened again, it also becomes clear that with the aid of the device according to the invention, flat objects from conveying streams with essentially any object orientations can and that by releasing the flat objects from the inventive Device other flow rates with essentially any Object orientations can be created.

These are placed with the held edges in advance on L-shaped shelves 40, for example to form stacks. Thanks to the unloading of the gripper arms relative to the conveyor elements and relative to the guide channel which guides the movement of the conveyor elements, the combing of grippers and trays necessary for such a delivery is possible.

  • FIG. 9 It is clearly evident from FIG. 9 that a scale flow (for example from Winding) in which the folded edges of the printed products in the flow are above trailing are also taken over by the device according to the invention can be. All you have to do is grasp the gripper opposite the 9 are rotated by about 180 ° so that the gripper mouths are directed forward in the conveying direction, and the feed speed must be be set so that the grippers catch up with the products from behind so slide over the folded edges. 9, according to the invention Device 30 with the feed device 41 can thus by a very simple Changeover optionally for the admission of print products with leading or with trailing, overhead folding edges can be used, the products without any problems regardless of the feed into a given delivery position can be brought.
