  • the drive motor 41 is preferably designed as a stepping motor 41.
  • the contact piece 39 is z. B. as one or two-armed lever 39, wherein the free end of the free end of the shift lever 38 serve as a stop and This can block (Fig. 3, 4).
  • Each of the individual gripper systems 07 to 11 associated drive motor 41 is by line 42; 43 with a z. B. on the outside of the side window 03 electrical control unit 44 is connected.
  • This control unit 44 communicates with a line 46 extending over the right-hand shaft journal with a slip ring body 47 located on the shaft journal 26 and surrounded by a housing 30.
  • the derivatives 48 of the slip rings lead to a control unit, not shown.
  • slip ring body 47 it is of course also possible, instead of the slip ring body 47 to arrange a rotatable transmission unit, not shown, and to communicate via a stator, also not shown, the control signals contactlessly to the control center and to receive new control signals from there again.
  • a second basic cam disk 49 for the folding blade systems 13 to 17 on the side frame-fixed bushing 32.
  • These include not shown rollers and roller lever.
  • switching parts and stepping motors are also provided for the folding blade systems 13 to 17, not shown here, however.
  • the execution of the side windows 02 is advantageous; 03 as multi-piece side windows 02; 03, wherein the folding blade systems 13 to 17 and the gripper systems 07 to 11 are rotated against each other.
  • the shaft journal 24 is advantageously carried out in this embodiment as a hollow shaft, which z. B. is connected to the side window 02 for the support spindle 19 of the gripper systems 07 to 11. In running as a hollow shaft shaft 24 z. B. the shaft journal, not shown, arranged for the side window of the folding blade systems 13 to 17, also not shown.
  • the Drive motors 41 are acted upon by turning their motor shaft in each case so that the propeller-shaped contact piece 39 with its free end in a tangential to the cylinder cross-section - see gripper system 07 - or in a radial direction to the cylinder cross-section - see gripper system 09 - is brought.
  • the gripper system 08 shows the switching piece 39 within a switching angle ⁇
  • the gripper system 09 shows the switching piece 39 in a rest phase within an angle ⁇ .
  • the switching piece 39 must reach its new position within the switching angle ⁇ very quickly, and in particular in a time less than 1/300 second, and safely.
  • a free end of the rotatable lever 39 of the switching piece 39 has a nearly perpendicular to the switching piece 39 and axially parallel to the axis of rotation A of the switching piece 39 and the motor shaft extending cam 53, which in a locking position below the free end of Shift lever 38 is rotated and this blocked so that thereby the support spindle 19 is not rotated (Fig. 4).
  • the motor shaft of the drive motor 41 runs in a secant-like direction to the cylinder cross-section of FIG. 2.
  • the shift lever 38 can also be placed in two different positions.
  • auxiliary curve 51; 52 can also be applied to cylinders for cutting or folding in the same or a similar way.
