Definitions

  • the invention relates to an engraving or printing machine, with a rotatable cylindrical support body on which an exchangeable outer form or pressure sleeve Made of elastic, stretchy material that can be opened and closed Pulling off onto or from the carrier body by introduction of compressed air between the carrier body or one on the Carrier body pushed on intermediate sleeve (bridging sleeve) and the form or pressure sleeve is radially expandable, and with a device through which the carrier body relative to Machine bed is movable in the axial direction.
  • DE 100 23 742 A1 is a printing or form cylinder known for printing presses, optionally on the carrier body both metallic and non-metallic pressure sleeves can be raised. These are in the carrier body a compressed air duct system for winding the non-metallic Pressure sleeves in the manner mentioned above and a hydraulic channel system for winding the metallic Pressure sleeves provided. The loading of both channel systems with their print medium done by each one of the opposite bearings of the support body, at the front ends they open. This too Printing cylinder must, already with the duct systems for that Introduction of the respective print medium become accessible, lifted out of the printing machine to replace the printing sleeves and to another machine on which the exchange of the Sleeves can be made to be transported.
  • a printing press is known from DE 198 46 033 A1, where the only one-sided pressure cylinder for the Exchange of the pressure sleeve moves axially in its bearing will that one in one between the pressure sleeve and the Carrier body arranged intermediate sleeve provided compressed air channel comes in connection with the outlet opening Compressed air line located on a side of the camp Console emerges and connected to a compressed air connection is.
  • this construction is only for short impression cylinders suitable, which are only supported on one side and their other end is freely accessible so that the pressure sleeve can be raised from there.
  • the object of the invention is an engraving or printing machine of the kind mentioned at the beginning to create one fast and without great time-consuming machine effort to change the form or pressure sleeve straight also permitted on a support body mounted on both sides, so that the necessary machine downtimes become clear be shortened, thus increasing productivity and time and costs can be saved.
  • this is achieved in that after axial movement of the support body by a distance that pulled one end of the support body out of its bearing and is then pivotable through an angle ⁇ . Thereby this end of the carrier body becomes freely accessible, and it can be from this side the exchange of form or Pressure sleeve done without the support body the machine and a special exchange device must be transported.
  • the one for the sleeve change necessary standstill is shortened considerably, and the mechanical effort for this is comparatively low and energy saving.
  • the carrier body at one end in a fixed Bearing and at its other end in an axial displaceable and pivotable by an angle ⁇ Warehouse stock stored.
  • pivotable Bearing taken up by the distance a with its further axial movement also its pivoting movement by means of a Curve effects.
  • the pivoting movement is thus integral with the axial movement and it is for the two movements only one drive required.
  • the pivotable bearing holder is preferred on a Console guided in the axial direction by means of an elongated hole and pin, and on the swiveling bearing holder is on the side protruding a first, low extension and at a distance before this, a second, higher extension is provided; there lies in the starting position of the pivotable bearing holder the low extension with its end face on the Guide surface of a circular, arranged on the console Sliding guide element, and after an axial Movement of the pivotable bearing holder by the distance a the higher extension strikes with its lateral contact surface on the circular guide element. This is how it works the further axial movement of the pivotable bearing holder also his swivel movement.
  • a tool e.g. one Laser beam
  • an angle pacemaker encoder
  • the pacemaker is preferred designed as a hollow shaft encoder.
  • the carrier body is advantageously a cylindrical one Hollow body formed, through holes in the wall are provided; is the cavity of the carrier body after the swivel movement with a rotating union Compressed air can be applied. So the weight of the carrier body be significantly reduced, and manufacturing will simplified by not using special channels for the compressed air be introduced into a carrier body made of solid material have to. If to compensate for different diameters of the formoder Pressure sleeves on the carrier body in a known manner Way, an intermediate sleeve is pushed on, then aligned the holes in the wall of the carrier body with compressed air feedthroughs in the intermediate sleeve.
  • Fig. 1 is above the machine bed 1 an engraving or Printing machine on both sides in one bearing 2 and 3 mounted support body 4 of a forme or impression cylinder to see.
  • One bearing holder 3 is vertical Swiveling axis; it can be opened move a console axially as well as afterwards pivot by an angle ⁇ , so that in the opposite bearing holder 2 slidably mounted Pulled the end of the carrier body 4 out of its bearing and is freely accessible through the pivoting movement, as in Fig. 1 shown with dashed lines.
  • the carrier body 4 is, as can be seen from FIG. 2, as one-sided closed hollow body formed. On the locked In the end, the carrier body 4 is usually and always during the operation of the machine in a warehouse of the warehouse 2 stored; the open end is in the pivotable Bearing 3 stored. By one not closer shown rotating union in the pivotable Bearing holder 3 can 6 compressed air via a compressed air line be passed into the cavity 5 of the support body 4.
  • the Wall thickness of the support body 4 is dimensioned such that on the one hand it withstands the compressed air safely, on the other hand but also a significant reduction in weight a support body 4 made of solid material, in which, if appropriate only compressed air channels are provided becomes.
  • the carrier body 4 by an axial movement and a subsequent one Swiveling movement of the swiveling bearing holder 3 the closed end of the carrier body 4 from its storage pulled out in the fixed bearing holder 2 and then pivoted so far that the now free end is accessible and the sleeve is changed from this side can be.
  • a separate drive can be provided in each case be operated electrically, hydraulically or pneumatically can.
  • both movements can advantageously be carried out together be started, so that at the end of one Movement automatically initiates the subsequent movement , that is, when the carrier body 4 is pivoted out moving automatically swiveling when swiveling back the sequence is reversed.
  • the pivotable bearing holder 3 is on one Console 12 slidably and rotatably mounted.
  • an adjusting mechanism 13 is provided for this purpose electrically or hydraulically or pneumatically driven can be.
  • it is pivotable Bearing receptacle 3 on the bracket 12 in an elongated hole 14 guided by pin 15; on a side guide part 16 there is an additional axial guidance.
  • a pivoting movement is provided for curve guidance.
  • the pivotable bearing holder 3 is on its side facing away from the guide element 16 two radially protruding extensions 17, 18 of different heights are attached, and on the console 12 is one with these Extensions 17, 18 interacting, in the example shown circular, guide element 21.
  • a part with another comes as a guide element 21 as a circularly shaped curved surface 22 in question. Also are other solutions for driving the movements are conceivable, without departing from the invention.
  • the exchange of the form or pressure sleeves 11 can thus take place on the respective machine itself in a short time and without further mechanical effort in an energy-saving manner;
  • the machine's downtime is reduced to a minimum, which increases production and saves costs.
  • only a single drive is required for the movement of the carrier body 4 in the axial direction and for its pivoting movement; this considerably reduces the susceptibility to failure of the device and saves energy again.
  • the coupling of the carrier body 4 on the side of the fixed bearing receptacle 2 after each sleeve change can be done by frictional engagement, frictional engagement, by means of teeth, via a slip clutch or magnetically.
  • an encoder or angular step encoder 23 is used, which is designed here as a hollow shaft encoder and is coupled to the axis of the carrier body 4 on the side of the pivotable bearing receptacle 3, where the carrier body 4 with its journal is always in the bearing ,
