Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Steuerung einer die Lage einer Seitenkante eines auf einem Anlegtisch an Vordermarken nach der Vorderkante ausgerichteten Bogens erfassenden Messeinrichtung.The invention relates to a device for controlling a measuring device which detects the position of a side edge of a sheet which is aligned on a feed table on front marks after the front edge.

Aus der EP 0 753 407 B1 ist es bekannt, einen an Anlegmarken nach der Vorderkante ausgerichteten, auf dem Anlegtisch liegenden Bogen hinsichtlich der Lager seiner Seitenkante zu erfassen. Die Lage der Seitenkante wird mittels eines optoelektronischen Sensors mit integrierter Beleuchtung erfasst, indem ein Istsignal generiert wird, das mit einem in einer Steuereinrichtung abgelegten Sollsignal verglichen wird. Stimmen diese Signale nicht überein, erfolgt die Generierung eines Stellsignals, durch welches ein Stellelement angesteuert und damit das Greifersystem der Schwinganlage oder eines Zuführzylinders in axialer Richtung verschoben wird. Der optoelektronische Sensor ist in einem Abstand über dem Anlegtisch an einer Traverse mittels einer verschiebbaren Halterung angeordnet.From EP 0 753 407 B1 it is known to detect a sheet which is aligned with contact marks according to the leading edge and which lies on the contact table with regard to the bearings of its side edge. The position of the side edge is detected by means of an optoelectronic sensor with integrated lighting, in that an actual signal is generated which is compared with a target signal stored in a control device. If these signals do not match, an actuating signal is generated by which an actuating element is actuated and the gripper system of the vibrating system or a feed cylinder is displaced in the axial direction. The optoelectronic sensor is arranged at a distance above the feed table on a crossmember by means of a displaceable holder.

Nachteilig ist, dass die optoelektronische Abtasteinrichtung manuell sowohl auf das Format des zur Verarbeitung gelangenden Bogenmaterials eingestellt, als auch der zu erfassenden Seitenkante zugeordnet werden muss. Außerdem ist es nachteilig, dass eine Speicherung eingestellter Positionen der Messeinrichtung für Wiederholaufträge nicht möglich ist.It is disadvantageous that the optoelectronic scanning device must be set manually to the format of the sheet material being processed and must also be assigned to the side edge to be detected. In addition, it is disadvantageous that it is not possible to store the positions of the measuring device that have been set for repeat orders.

Nach der DE 30 22 950 A1 ist es weiterhin bekannt, zwecks Regelung des Bandlaufs eines bandförmigen Gutes mit Hilfe einer Videokamera fortlaufend die Bahnkante zu erfassen und bei Abweichungen einen Stellbefehl zu realisieren, durch den die Bahnlage gesteuert wird.According to DE 30 22 950 A1, it is also known to continuously record the web edge with the aid of a video camera for the purpose of regulating the belt travel of a belt-shaped good and, in the event of deviations, to implement an actuating command by which the web position is controlled.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, die bekannte Vorrichtung so weiterzubilden, dass eine Positionierung bzw. Zuordnung der Messeinrichtung zu der zu erfassenden Seitenkante bei einem Formatwechsel ohne manuellen Eingriff sowie die Speicherung einer realisierten Position möglich ist.The object of the invention is to further develop the known device in such a way that the measuring device can be positioned or assigned to the side edge to be detected in the event of a format change without manual intervention and the storage of a realized position.

Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Durch die erfindungsgemäße Lösung ist es möglich, die Messeinrichtung zum Erfassen der Lage der Seitenkante eines zur Verarbeitung gelangenden Bogens bedarfsgerecht zu positionieren.According to the invention the object is achieved by the features of claim 1. The solution according to the invention makes it possible to position the measuring device for detecting the position of the side edge of a sheet to be processed as required.

In den Figuren 1 und 2 ist ein Anlegtisch 1 mit Vordermarken 5 dargestellt. Auf dem Anlegtisch 1 liegt ein Bogen 2, der mit seiner Vorderkante durch einen nicht dargestellten Bändertisch in Bogenförderrichtung 4 auf dem Anlegtisch 1 sowie gegen die Vordermarken transportiert und so bezüglich der Vorderkante ausgerichtet wurde. Der Anlegtisch 1 ist spiegelbildlich zu einer Maschinenmitte 3 ausgebildet, wobei die in Bogenförderrichtung 4 links liegende Seite als Seite I und die rechts liegende Seite als Seite II bezeichnet wird.. Die zur Verarbeitung gelangenden Bogen 2 werden in der Regel ebenfalls spiegelbildlich zur Maschinenmitte 4 zugeführt. Quer zur Bogenförderrichtung 4 ist im den Vordermarken 5 vorgeordneten Bereich über die Breite des Anlegtisches 1 gestellfest eine Traverse 6 vorgesehen. An der Traverse 6 ist eine Messeinrichtung 7, die als Videokamera 8 ausgebildet ist, mittels eines Halters 9 angeordnet. Der Halter 9 ist spielfrei und durch nicht gezeigte Stellmittel entlang der Traverse 6 verschiebbar gelagert. Dem Halter 9 ist eine Wegmesseinrichtung 10 zugeordnet. Die Wegmesseinrichtung 10 weist einen Messwertaufnehmer 11 auf, der dem Halter 9 zugeordnet ist. Mit der Traverse 6 ist ein Messwertgeber 12 verbunden. Der Messwertgeber 12 kann z.B. als gespurtes Magnetband, als Lineal oder als Potentiometer und entsprechend der Messwertaufnehmer 11 als Lesekopf oder als Schleifer ausgebildet sein. Der Messwertgeber 12 weist einen Nullpunkt auf und ist so der Traverse 6 zugeordnet, dass der Nullpunkt mit der Maschinenmitte 3 übereinstimmt.
Aus dieser Nullposition heraus kann der Halter 9 und damit die Messeinrichtung 7 bzw. die Videokamera 8 durch die nicht dargestellten Stellmittel nach der linken Seite I, wie in Figur 1 dargestellt, oder nach der rechten Seite II verfahren werden, wobei die durch die Wegmesseinrichtung 10 generierten Messwerte einer Rechnereinheit zugeführt werden, so dass ständig über eine Auswerteinheit die Position des Halters 9 und damit der Videokamera 8 ermittelbar ist. Bei einem Auflagewechsel wird in eine Eingabeeinheit das neue Format und Seite I oder Seite II eingegeben in Abhängigkeit davon, ob die linke Seitenkante 2.1 oder die rechte Seitenkante 2.2 des Bogens 2 erfasst werden soll.A feed table 1 with front marks 5 is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. On the feed table 1 is a sheet 2, which was transported with its front edge through a belt table, not shown, in the sheet conveying direction 4 on the feed table 1 and against the front marks and thus aligned with respect to the front edge. The feed table 1 is designed as a mirror image of a machine center 3, the side on the left in the sheet conveying direction 4 being referred to as side I and the right side as side II , Transverse to the sheet conveying direction 4, a cross member 6 is provided in the area upstream of the front marks 5 over the width of the feed table 1. A measuring device 7, which is designed as a video camera 8, is arranged on the crossmember 6 by means of a holder 9. The holder 9 is free of play and is displaceably mounted along the cross member 6 by adjusting means, not shown. A position measuring device 10 is assigned to the holder 9. The displacement measuring device 10 has a measurement sensor 11, which is assigned to the holder 9. A transducer 12 is connected to the cross member 6. The transducer 12 can be designed, for example, as a tracked magnetic tape, as a ruler or as a potentiometer and, in accordance with the transducer 11, as a read head or as a grinder. The measuring value transmitter 12 has a zero point and is assigned to the traverse 6 such that the zero point coincides with the machine center 3.
From this zero position, the holder 9 and thus the measuring device 7 or the video camera 8 can be moved to the left side I, as shown in FIG. 1, or to the right side II by the adjusting means (not shown), the position measuring device 10 generated measured values are fed to a computer unit, so that the position of the holder 9 and thus the video camera 8 can be determined continuously via an evaluation unit. When changing the edition, the new format and page I or page II are entered into an input unit depending on whether the left side edge 2.1 or the right side edge 2.2 of the sheet 2 is to be detected.

Damit wird die Messeinrichtung 7 bzw. die Videokamera 8 in eine Position verschoben, in der, wie in Figur 1 dargestellt, in einem Toleranzbereich um einen für das entsprechende Format vorgegebenen Sollwert die Istlage der linken Seitenkante 2.1 erfasst wird. Bei Verwendung der Videokamera 8 wird der an den Vordermarken 5 anliegende Bogen 2 zur Fremdlichtkompensation angeblitzt und die Seitenkante 2.1 von der Videokamera 8 als Kontrastsprung erfasst. Das von der Videokamera 8 erzeugte Signal wird dem Rechner zugeführt und zur messtechnischen Auswertung verwendet. Dabei wird das Istsignal mit einem Sollsignal verglichen und bei Abweichungen vom Sollsignal ein Stellsignal generiert, das einem vor- oder nachgeordnetem System zugeführt wird zur Realisierung einer Stellhandlung.
Ist es erforderlich, nach einem Maschinendurchlauf die Bogen 2 nochmals, um z.B. nach einem Schöndruck einen Widerdruck zu realisieren, durchlaufen zu lassen, müssen diese gewendet werden, so dass die Seitenkante 2.1 auf der Seite II detektiert werden muss. Die Videokamera 8 kann, da der Abstand zwischen der Maschinenmitte 3 und der Position zum Erfassen der Lage der Seitenkante 2.1 auf der Seite I im Rechner erfasst ist, im gleichen Abstand zur Maschinenmitte 3 auf der Seite II positioniert werden, so dass problemlos eine Weiterverarbeitung der "gestülpten" Bogen 2 möglich ist. Macht es sich aus technologischen Gründen erforderlich, beim Widerdruck die Seitenkante 2.1 auf der Seite II in einem andren Abstand zur Maschinenmitte 3 als beim Schöndruck zu positionieren, ist das Positionieren der Videokamera 8 problemlos möglich durch Eingabe von Korrekturfaktoren, wodurch die Videokamera 8 entsprechend näher oder weiter entfernt zur Maschinenmitte 3 positioniert wird.In this way, the measuring device 7 or the video camera 8 is moved into a position in which, as shown in FIG. 1, the actual position of the left side edge 2.1 is detected within a tolerance range around a desired value specified for the corresponding format. When using the video camera 8, the sheet 2 lying against the front marks 5 is flashed on to compensate for extraneous light and the side edge 2.1 is recorded by the video camera 8 as a jump in contrast. The signal generated by the video camera 8 is fed to the computer and used for measurement purposes. The actual signal is compared with a target signal and, in the event of deviations from the target signal, an actuating signal is generated which is fed to an upstream or downstream system to implement an actuating action.
If it is necessary to run through the sheets 2 again after a machine run, for example in order to realize a reverse printing after a straight print, these must be turned so that the side edge 2.1 on the side II must be detected. Since the distance between the machine center 3 and the position for detecting the position of the side edge 2.1 on the side I is recorded in the computer, the video camera 8 can be positioned at the same distance from the machine center 3 on the side II, so that further processing of the "slipped" sheet 2 is possible. If it is necessary for technological reasons to position the side edge 2.1 on the side II at a different distance from the center of the machine 3 than for straight printing, the positioning of the video camera 8 is easily possible by entering correction factors, which means that the video camera 8 is accordingly closer or positioned further away from the machine center 3.

Grundsätzlich ist es auch möglich, die Wegmesseinrichtung 10 den Stellelementen zuzuordnen, die zum Verschieben des Halters 9 auf der Traverse 6 vorgesehen sind.
Es ist weiterhin möglich, im Rechner Werte zu speichern, die den zur Verarbeitung gelangenden Formaten der Bogen 2 zugeordnet sind. Nach Eingeben des zur Verarbeitung vorgesehenen Formats sowie nach Vorgabe der Seite I, II des Anlegtisches 1, auf der die Seitenkante des Bogens 2 erfasst werden soll, wird die Messeinrichtung 10 positioniert.In principle, it is also possible to assign the displacement measuring device 10 to the actuating elements which are provided for displacing the holder 9 on the cross member 6.
It is also possible to store values in the computer which are assigned to the formats of sheet 2 which are to be processed. After the format intended for processing has been entered and the side I, II of the feed table 1, on which the side edge of the sheet 2 is to be recorded, the measuring device 10 is positioned.
