A transporting device (17) is installed behind the reversing unit to carry the sheets to the leading edge stop of the support table (16) for alignment of their respective leading edges.

Description

Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zur Ausrichtung von in einer Lage übereinander angeordneten Bogen.Device and a method for aligning sheets arranged one above the other in a layer.
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zur Ausrichtung von in einer Lage übereinander angeordneten Bogen gemäß dem Oberbegriff der Ansprüche 1 , 8 oder 10.The invention relates to a device and a method for aligning sheets arranged one above the other in a layer according to the preamble of claims 1, 8 or 10.
Vorrichtungen werden beispielsweise, jedoch keineswegs ausschließlich, dazu eingesetzt, bedruckte Bogen an zumindest einer Kante mit ausreichender Genauigkeit übereinanderliegend auszurichten, so dass der Stapel anschließend an den Kanten beschnitten werden kann. Bei manchen Druckerzeugnissen, beispielsweise mit Registriernummern versehenen Wertnoten, ist es nach dem Bedrucken der Bogen erforderlich, dass die Reihenfolge der Bogen in der einen Stapel bildenden Lage erhalten bleibt.Devices are used, for example, but by no means exclusively, to align printed sheets one above the other with sufficient accuracy on at least one edge, so that the stack can then be trimmed at the edges. In some printed products, for example value notes provided with registration numbers, it is necessary after the sheets have been printed that the sequence of the sheets is maintained in the layer forming a stack.
Die DE 68 09 156 U beschreibt eine Anordnung zum Herstellen eines geordneten Stapels von flachen Sendungen. Dabei werden unregelmäßig ankommende Sendungen geschuppt und auf einem Stapel abgelegt.DE 68 09 156 U describes an arrangement for producing an orderly stack of flat mail items. Irregularly arriving shipments are scaled and placed on a stack.
Die DE-PS 12 32 986 offenbart eine Stapelvorrichtung für gefalzte Bogenlagen. Dabei werden die geschuppten Bogenlagen mittels eines Bändertransportsystems um einen Zylinder geführt und gewendet. Anschließend werden die Bogenlagen an Anschlägen ausgerichtet und gestapelt.DE-PS 12 32 986 discloses a stacking device for folded sheet layers. The scaled sheet layers are guided and turned around a cylinder by means of a belt transport system. Then the sheet layers are aligned with the stops and stacked.
Die EP 0 173 959 A1 zeigt eine Bogenverarbeitungsmaschine, der von einer Unterseite eines ersten Stapels Bogen zugeführt werden. Nach der Bearbeitung werden mittels eines Bändersystems die ungeschuppten Bogen zu einer Ablage transportiert und mit einem Saugförderer oben auf einem zweiten Stapel abgelegt. Aus der EP 06 14840 A1 ist eine Vorrichtung bekannt, die in der Art eines Rütteltisches ausgebildet ist. Bei diesem Rütteltisch ist ein Auflagetisch vorgesehen, wobei an mindestens zwei, benachbarten Seiten des Auflagetisches seitliche Anschläge angeordnet sind, die an den Seitenkanten der Bogen zur Anlage kommen können. Zur Ausrichtung der Lage übereinander angeordneter Bogen wird die Lage auf den Auflagetisch aufgelegt und dieser anschließend so weit in Richtung der beiden Anschläge geneigt, dass die Seitenkanten der Bogen aufgrund der Schwerkraft an den Anschlägen zur Anlage kommen. Danach wird der Rütteltisch in Vibration versetzt, um dadurch die Lage der Bogen aufzulockern und eine Ausrichtbewegung der einzelnen Bogen relativ zueinander zu ermöglichen.EP 0 173 959 A1 shows a sheet processing machine to which sheets are fed from an underside of a first stack. After processing, the unscaled sheets are transported to a tray by means of a belt system and placed on top of a second stack with a suction conveyor. From EP 06 14840 A1 a device is known which is designed in the manner of a vibrating table. In this vibrating table, a support table is provided, lateral stops being arranged on at least two adjacent sides of the support table, which stops can come to rest on the side edges of the sheets. To align the layer of sheets arranged one above the other, the sheet is placed on the support table and this is then inclined so far in the direction of the two stops that the side edges of the sheet come to bear on the stops due to the force of gravity. The vibrating table is then vibrated in order to loosen up the position of the sheets and to enable an alignment movement of the individual sheets relative to one another.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zur Ausrichtung von in einer Lage übereinander angeordneten Bogen zu schaffen.The invention has for its object to provide a device and a method for aligning sheets arranged one above the other in a layer.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale der Ansprüche 1 , 8 oder 10 gelöst.This object is achieved by the features of claims 1, 8 or 10.
Die mit der Erfindung erzielbaren Vorteile bestehen insbesondere darin, dass die Lage der Bogen mit nicht ausgerichteter Vorderkante nicht unmittelbar auf dem Auflagetisch abgelegt wird, sondern auf einer vorgelagerten Tragplatte. Dabei ist in der Vorrichtung ein Bogenanleger vorgesehen, der die auf der Tragplatte abgelegten Bogen einzeln abnimmt und unter Bildung eines untergeschuppten Schuppenstroms weiterfördert. In diesem untergeschuppten Schuppenstrom liegt die Vorderkante eines jeden Bogens jeweils unterhalb des unmittelbar vorhergehenden Bogens. Im Ergebnis wird also beim Vereinzeln die Reihenfolge der Bogen nicht verändert. Hinter dem Bogenanleger ist in der Vorrichtung eine Wendeeinrichtung vorgesehen, mit der der Schuppenstrom gewendet wird. Durch die Wendung des Schuppenstroms wird im Ergebnis erreicht, dass jeder Bogen im Bereich seiner Vorderkante frei zugänglich ist. Zur eigentlichen Ausrichtung der einzelnen Bogen ist dann hinter der Wendeeinrichtung eine Fördereinrichtung vorgesehen, mit der die Bogen einzeln zum Vorderkantenanschlag des Auflagetisches gefördert werden. Durch die Anlage der Vorderkante der Bogen am Vorderkantenanschlag wird die gewünschte Ausrichtung der Bogen erreicht und zugleich eine neue Lage von Bogen, die alle jeweils am Vorderkantenanschlag anliegen, gebildet. Da die Bogen bei der Ausrichtbewegung am Vorderkantenanschlag jeweils oben auf der neu gebildeten Lage aufliegen, wird die Ausrichtbewegung nicht durch das Gewicht der anderen Bogen behindert. Zugleich wird jedoch die Reihenfolge der Bogen in der Lage, anders als beispielsweise beim Umstapeln, erhalten. Nach dem vollständigen Durchlauf aller Bogen der ursprünglichen Lage hat sich dann auf dem Auflagetisch eine neue Lage von Bogen mit ausgerichteter Vorderkante gebildet, wobei der ursprünglich oberste Bogen in der neuen Lage ganz unten liegt.The advantages that can be achieved with the invention are, in particular, that the position of the sheets with the front edge not aligned is not placed directly on the support table, but on an upstream support plate. In this case, a sheet feeder is provided in the device, which takes the sheets deposited on the support plate individually and conveys them further to form a shingled stream of shingled material. In this shingled stream of shingles, the leading edge of each arch lies below the immediately preceding arch. As a result, the order of the sheets is not changed when singling out. Behind the sheet feeder, a turning device is provided in the device, with which the stream of flakes is turned. The result of the reversal of the shingled stream is that each sheet is freely accessible in the area of its leading edge. A conveyor is then behind the turning device for the actual alignment of the individual sheets provided with which the sheets are conveyed individually to the leading edge stop of the support table. By placing the leading edge of the sheets against the leading edge stop, the desired alignment of the sheets is achieved and at the same time a new layer of sheets is formed, all of which are in contact with the leading edge stop. Since the sheets rest on the newly formed layer during the alignment movement at the leading edge stop, the alignment movement is not impeded by the weight of the other sheets. At the same time, however, the order of the sheets is preserved, unlike, for example, when stacking. After all of the sheets in the original position had run through completely, a new layer of sheets with an aligned leading edge was then formed on the support table, the original top sheet being in the new position at the bottom.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in den Zeichnungen dargestellt und wird im folgenden näher beschrieben.An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawings and will be described in more detail below.
Es zeigen:Show it:
Fig. 1 eine Vorrichtung zur Ausrichtung von Bogen in perspektivischer Ansicht von oben;Figure 1 shows a device for aligning sheets in a perspective view from above.
Fig. 2 die Vorrichtung gemäß Fig. 1 in einem vergrößerten Ausschnitt in perspektivischer Ansicht von oben;FIG. 2 shows the device according to FIG. 1 in an enlarged detail in a perspective view from above;
Fig. 3 eine Wendeeinrichtung zur Verwendung in einer Vorrichtung gemäß Fig. 1 in perspektivischer Ansicht von unten.3 shows a turning device for use in a device according to FIG. 1 in a perspective view from below.
Zur Bildung einer Vorrichtung 01 kann ein bekannter Bogenanleger 02 verwendet werden. Im Bogenanleger 02 ist eine in Fig. 1 verdeckt dargestellte Tragplatte vorgesehen, auf die eine Lage von übereinander angeordneten Bogen 04, beispielsweise mit Wertnoten und Registriernummern bedruckte Bogen, abgelegt werden können. Durch Einsatz einer verfahrbaren Saugeinheit 03 werden die Bogen 04 in bekannter Art und Weise einzeln von der Lage abgenommen und unter Bildung eines untergeschuppten Schuppenstroms, bei dem die Bogen 04 mit ihrer Vorderkante jeweils unterhalb des vorhergehenden Bogens 04 liegen, in Richtung einer Wendeeinrichtung 06 weitergefördert.A known sheet feeder 02 can be used to form a device 01. In the sheet feeder 02 there is a support plate, shown concealed in FIG. 1, on which a layer of sheets 04 arranged one above the other, for example sheets printed with value notes and registration numbers, can be placed. By using a movable suction unit 03, the sheets 04 are removed individually from the position in a known manner and conveyed further in the direction of a turning device 06 to form a shingled stream of shingled material, in which the sheets 04 with their leading edge lie below the previous sheet 04.
Zwischen Bogenanleger 02 und Wendeeinrichtung 06 ist eine Seitenziehmarke 07 vorgesehen, an der die rechte Seitenkante der einzelnen Bogen 04 des Schuppenstroms seitlich ausgerichtet werden.Between sheet feeder 02 and turning device 06, a side drawing mark 07 is provided, on which the right side edge of the individual sheets 04 of the shingled stream are laterally aligned.
Die Fördergeschwindigkeit der Saugbänder 08 im Bogenanleger 02 ist dabei höher als die Fördergeschwindigkeit der Saugbänder 09 in der Wendeeinrichtung 06, so dass im Ergebnis die Fördergeschwindigkeit des Schuppenstroms nach Ausrichten der Bogen 04 an der Seitenziehmarke 07 verringert wird. Dadurch wird die Überlappung zwischen den einzelnen Bogen 04 im Schuppenstrom vergrößert und der Schuppenstrom somit langsamer weitergefördert, so dass der Materiallauf mit den bereits seitlich ausgerichteten Bogen 04 ruhiger wird. An einem Bedienpult 11 können Steuerbefehle für die Vorrichtung 01 eingegeben und verschiedene Betriebszustände angezeigt werden.The conveying speed of the suction belts 08 in the sheet feeder 02 is higher than the conveying speed of the suction belts 09 in the turning device 06, so that, as a result, the conveying speed of the scale flow after aligning the sheets 04 on the side drawing mark 07 is reduced. As a result, the overlap between the individual sheets 04 in the shingled stream is increased and the shingled stream is thus conveyed more slowly, so that the material flow with the sheets 04 already aligned laterally becomes quieter. Control commands for the device 01 can be entered on a control panel 11 and various operating states can be displayed.
Am Einlauf der Wendeeinrichtung 06 werden, wie in Fig. 2 dargestellt, die Bogen 04 zwischen den Saugbändern 09 und umlaufende Führungsbändern 12 eingezogen und um 150° - 210° gewendet und in Richtung einer Walze 13, z. B. einer Saugwalze 13 weitergefördert. Die Saugwalze 13 läuft in Richtung des Bewegungspfeils 14 rotatorisch um, so dass die Bogen 04 des am Einlauf untergeschuppten Schuppenstroms derart gewendet werden, dass die Bogen 04 am Auslauf der Wendeeinrichtung 06 im Bereich ihrer Vorderkante jeweils frei zugänglich sind, wohingegen die Hinterkante jedes Bogens 04 unterhalb des jeweils nachfolgenden Bogens 04 im Schuppenstrom liegt.At the inlet of the turning device 06, as shown in FIG. 2, the sheets 04 are drawn in between the suction belts 09 and circumferential guide belts 12 and turned through 150 ° - 210 ° and in the direction of a roller 13, e.g. B. a suction roller 13 further promoted. The suction roller 13 rotates in the direction of the movement arrow 14, so that the sheets 04 of the shingled stream that is shingled at the inlet are turned in such a way that the sheets 04 are freely accessible at the outlet of the turning device 06 in the area of their front edge, whereas the rear edge of each sheet 04 is below the subsequent arc 04 in the stream of shingles.
Hinter dem Auslauf der Wendeeinrichtung 06 ist ein Auflagetisch 16 angeordnet, an dessen hinteren Ende ein in Fig. 2 verdeckt dargestellter Vorderkantenanschlag vorgesehen ist. Mittels einer als Fördereinrichtung 17 dienenden Saugkörpereinheit 17 mit zwei rotatorisch antreibbaren Saugkörper 18, z. B. eine Saugwalzen 18 können die einzelnen Bogen 04 des Schuppenstroms nacheinander im Bereich ihrer Vorderkante angesaugt und gegen den verdeckt dargestellten Vorderkantenanschlag gefördert werden. Durch fortlaufenden Betrieb der Vorrichtung 01 bildet sich auf dem Auflagetisch 16 eine neue Lage von übereinander angeordneten Bogen 04, deren Vorderkante und Seitenkante jeweils ausgerichtet ist. Damit die von der Saugkörpereinheit 17 auf die Bogen 04 der neuen Lage ausgeübte Gewichtskraft die Ausrichtung der Vorderkante nicht behindert, kann die Höhe der neuen Lage mit einem nicht dargestellten Sensor gemessen und die Saugkörpereinheit 17 in Abhängigkeit dieses Messwertes vertikal verstellt werden. Im Ergebnis befinden sich die Saugwalzen 18 mit ihrem Umfang damit immer in Höhe der Oberseite der neuen Lage und drücken damit nicht auf den jeweils auszurichtenden obersten Bogen 04.A support table 16 is arranged behind the outlet of the turning device 06, at the rear end of which a front edge stop shown in FIG. 2 is provided. By means of a suction body unit 17 serving as a conveyor 17 two rotationally driven suction body 18, z. B. a suction roller 18, the individual sheets 04 of the shingled stream can be sucked one after the other in the region of their front edge and conveyed against the front edge stop shown in a concealed manner. Continuous operation of the device 01 forms on the support table 16 a new layer of sheets 04 arranged one above the other, the front edge and the side edge of which are each aligned. So that the weight force exerted by the absorbent unit 17 on the sheet 04 of the new layer does not hinder the alignment of the front edge, the height of the new layer can be measured with a sensor (not shown) and the absorbent unit 17 can be adjusted vertically depending on this measured value. As a result, the suction rolls 18 are always at the level of the top of the new layer with their circumference and thus do not press on the top sheet 04 to be aligned in each case.
Die Vorrichtung 01 kann beispielsweise wie folgt betrieben werden:The device 01 can be operated as follows, for example:
Nachdem beispielsweise hundert Bogen 04 vom der Vorrichtung 01 abgezogen worden sind, wird die Vorrichtung 01 für eine bestimmte Zeit abgeschaltet, so dass der Bogenlauf unterbrochen wird. Die jeweils in einem Schuppenstrom zusammengefassten Bogen 04 werden dann durch die Wendeeinrichtung 06 zum Auflagetisch 16 hingefördert und dort unter Bildung einer neuen Lage abgestapelt. Sobald alle Bogen 04 des Schuppenstroms an der Vorderkantenmarke ausgerichtet sind, wird die jeweilige Lage vom Auflagetisch 16 in Richtung einer nachgeordneten Vorrichtung (nicht dargestellt), die beispielsweise dem Beschneiden der Kanten der Bogen 04 dient, weitergefördert.For example, after a hundred sheets 04 have been removed from the device 01, the device 01 is switched off for a certain time, so that the sheet travel is interrupted. The sheets 04 combined in a shingled stream are then conveyed by the turning device 06 to the support table 16 and stacked there to form a new layer. As soon as all sheets 04 of the scale flow are aligned with the leading edge mark, the respective position is conveyed further from the support table 16 in the direction of a downstream device (not shown), which serves, for example, to trim the edges of the sheets 04.
Während des gesamten Ablaufes zeigt das vorlaufende Ende des vom ersten Stapel abgenommenen Bogens in Transportrichtung, d. h. das vorlaufende Ende der Bogen ist, bezogen auf die Transportrichtung, auch beim Ablagestapel vorlaufend.During the entire process, the leading end of the sheet removed from the first stack points in the direction of transport, i. H. the leading end of the sheet is also leading in relation to the direction of transport for the discard pile.
Beim Banknotendruck kann in der Vorrichtung 01 ein Kamerasystem 21 vorgesehen sein, mit der die Registriernummern der einzelnen Bogen 04 beobachtet werden können. In Fig. 3 ist die Wendeeinrichtung 06 mit den umlaufenden Führungsbändem 12 und der Saugwalze 13 in perspektivischer Ansicht von unten dargestellt. Man erkennt, dass die Führungsbänder 12 am Auslauf der Wendeeinrichtung 06 entlang von Saugkästen 22 geführt sind und somit am Auslauf der Wendeeinrichtung 06 in der Art von Saugbändern 12 funktionieren. Dadurch wird gewährleistet, dass die Bogen 04 am Auslauf der Wendeeinrichtung 06 angesaugt und auf diese Weise ihre Lage gesichert wird. When printing banknotes, a camera system 21 can be provided in the device 01, with which the registration numbers of the individual sheets 04 can be observed. In Fig. 3, the turning device 06 is shown with the rotating guide bands 12 and the suction roller 13 in a perspective view from below. It can be seen that the guide belts 12 are guided along the suction boxes 22 at the outlet of the turning device 06 and thus function in the manner of suction belts 12 at the outlet of the turning device 06. This ensures that the sheet 04 is sucked in at the outlet of the turning device 06 and its position is secured in this way.
