  • this object is achieved in that the Support device a third, the front in the paper direction End of the stack resp. Stackable assigned liftable Has support element.
  • the third support element is advantageous regardless of that first and second support element along the stack support driven driven, which creates more freedom of action, which has a positive effect on higher production output.
  • the first and the second support element can be raised together in the separation gap and cause a exact separation between two printed sheets.
  • the stack packages on the stack support expediently between one in the paper running direction the front End of the stack package associated press part and a spaced associated with the rear end of the stack Press part transferred to the pressing device and from the latter in transports the strapping device, resulting in short cycle times arise.
  • the support elements of the support device are expedient on a common, parallel to the stack support extending guide adjustable so that a simple guide construction arises.
  • End plate feed device for the production of ends stack packages reinforced with end plates, one for the rear end of a stack package specific end plate on the Transfer position of the stack between the second the rear end of the stack package supporting element and the press part associated with the rear end of the stack package fed to the stacking support, with which a reliable end plate positioning is guaranteed on the stack support.
  • one is for the front end of one Endplate in a stack package determined by the second and the third support element formed space on the stack support transported against the paper feed direction.
  • the feed device for end plates between is advantageous the pressed parts of those in the transfer position Pressing device arranged, whereby stack packages each have the desired length produced.
  • 1 a to 1 l show a device 1 for producing stack packs 2 from printing sheets 4 fed continuously in a shingled stream 3.
  • the printing sheets 4 are, as described in EP 0'623'542 A1, via a conveyor device (not visible) in one Scale stream 3 is fed to a horizontal stack support 5 after it has been previously aligned and placed in the desired scale shape, ie the scale formation must be turned laterally by 180 ° after the printing press. If the scale formation is to be processed by one wrap, it is initially essential to wrap it around another wrap.
  • 1a to 1l further show that the device 1 is designed to be mobile and can thus be connected to the display of various printing machines of a company.
  • FIG. 1 a shows the device 1 in the empty state with an incoming scale flow 3 and the first support element 6 of a multi-part support device 7 raised above the stack support 5.
  • This further consists of a second support element 8, which is also illustrated in the raised state.
  • the two support elements 6, 8 are assigned a third support element 9, which is also shown in the ejected position.
  • the support elements 6, 8, 9 forming the support device 7 are driven on a guide 10 arranged below the stack support 5, parallel to this, along the stack support 5.
  • the support elements 6, 8, 9 are connected, for example, to traction means, such as toothed belts or chains, which are driven along the stack support 5 in the paper running direction and back and can be raised and lowered by controlled adjusting means.
  • FIG. 2 An embodiment of the drive arrangement for the support device 7, in particular support element 9, is shown in FIG. 2.
  • the latter provides a lateral guide 10, which is fastened to a frame of the device 1 and on which a carriage 11 which is movable along the stack support 5 and on which the support element 9 can be raised and lowered is arranged.
  • two columns 12 are provided, on which the support element 9, which has three support plates 13, can be driven vertically by a pneumatic cylinder (not shown).
  • the support element 9 is driven along the stack support 5 by toothed belts 14, of which both the upper and the lower run can be seen.
  • the drive motor for toothed belt 14 is located at the opposite end of the stack support 5. Toothed belt 15 is provided for driving support element 6 and toothed belt 16 for support element 8.
  • the toothed belts 15 to 17 are each deflected around pulleys, one of which is connected to a drive motor, toothed belt 16 being associated with a geared motor 17 and toothed belt 15 with a geared motor 18.
  • the support elements 6, 8, like the support element 9, are fastened to their own undercarriage (not illustrated in FIG. 2) and, like the support element 9, are actuated by a pneumatic cylinder.
  • a pressing device 19 which can be moved along the stack support 5, is arranged above the stack support 5 and detects a stack package 2 produced on the stack support 5 and transports it into a subsequent strapping device 20.
  • 3 shows a supporting structure 21 with a pressing part 22 viewed from the pressing device 19 in the opposite direction of the paper travel.
  • the supporting structure extends transversely to the paper running direction and is arranged to be movable on both sides by two rollers 23 in a stationary C-shaped running rail (not visible).
  • the running rail 27 is provided with a toothed rack (not shown) with which a toothed wheel 24 of a travel drive 25 meshes.
  • the press part 22 consists of two press plates 26 which can be adjusted to the format of the printed sheets to be processed on a guide rod 26 arranged above them, transversely to the paper running direction.
  • the area of action of the pressing device 19 extends from the stacking support 5 into the strapping device 20.
  • the support elements 6, 9 of the support device 7 are raised via the stack support 5 in the concept of taking over an end plate 29 which is displaced from the side of the device 1 from a plate magazine between the spaced support elements 8, 9.
  • an end plate 29 which, for the front end of a stack in the paper travel direction.
  • Stack package 2 is provided. The (front) end plate 29 is now guided between the support elements 8, 9 via the stack support 5 to the front stack end of a stack which is held upright by the support element 6.
  • the second support element 8 has now moved downward from the stacking support 5 and the end plate 29 is now held between the support elements 6 and 9.
  • the collecting process is maintained and the first support element 6 of the support device 7 can now also be moved downwards, so that the end plate 29 comes to rest on the front end of the stack, supported by the support element 9 (see FIG. 1c).
  • the support elements 6, 8 move into their starting position in front of the rear end of the stack (see FIG. 1d). In the situation according to FIG.
  • the stack package 2 is located between two pressing parts 22, 28 of the pressing device 19, so that an end plate 30 can be fed from the side end plate magazine to the rear end of the stack package 2, ie the end plate magazine is between the pressing parts 22, 28, approximately arranged pressing part for the rear stack end.
  • Pressed part 22 and the rear end of the stacking package or the supporting element 8 supporting this form a gap into which the rear end plate 30 is inserted.
  • Both end plates 29 and 30 have the same dimensions (see Fig. 1g). Subsequently, as shown in FIG.
  • the front pressed part 28 and the rear pressed part 22 with the end plate 29 and 30 in between are placed against the ends of the stacking package 2 and at the same time the support elements 8 and 9 are moved out of the stacking area. Meanwhile, stacking continues at the end of the shingled stream.
  • the stack of packs 2 gripped by the pressed parts 22, 28 is now transferred to the strapping device 20 on the running rails 27 and the support elements 8, 9 have arrived at the end plate magazine for taking over a front end plate 29. While the front end plate 29 is being moved to the front stack end of the continuously increasing stack, the stack package 2 is finally pressed off in the strapping device 20 and then strapped or bound together.
  • the front end plate 29 is supported by the support element 9 at the front end of the stack, the support elements 6, 8 are extended and the strapping is completed.
  • the support elements 6, 8 return to the starting position, where, according to FIG. 1d, a new stacking process has already started.
