Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for transporting a substantially arcuate element, in particular for transporting a printing material sheet in a printing press, preferably in an electrophotographic printing machine, comprising at least one rotating transport member transporting the sheet-like element from a detection point to a delivery point and discharging there. which comprises for detecting and entrainment of the arcuate element at least one jaw-like receptacle for insertion or insertion of the leading edge region of the arcuate element, and comprising at least one coupled to the transport member displacement member for substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the transport member directed transverse displacement of the arcuate element in the region of the discharge point ,
- a device of the aforementioned type is known from US-A-4,431,177 known.
- the displacement member which is designed as a swinging substantially suspended swing arm, must be moved back to the initial position after each transverse displacement movement over the center position. This can cause unwanted dead times for the entire device.
- the invention has for its object to avoid such dead times and to show a device of the type mentioned, which can be operated as a whole with a higher operating speed.
- the displacement member comprises a rolling for displacement on the arcuate element rolling drive element.
- Such a rolling drive element can rotate with advantage in a direction of rotation. A return movement is therefore canceled. At most, the rolling drive element must be set in function and disabled, depending on whether and when a transverse displacement is desired. For such a transverse displacement transversely to the transport direction by the transport member, the rolling drive element has an axis which is oriented substantially transversely to the axis of rotation of the transport member.
- the displacement member from a rest position to a working position and vice versa is movable so that it can be set in this way in function and out of action and otherwise rotate in principle continuously.
- the rolling drive element in working position could advantageously also serve simply as a braking element for the further transport of the arcuate element by the transport member, for example, to damp a stop at a stop edge in the region of the delivery point.
- the displacement member is coupled to the transport member for a forced movement in dependence on the rotational position of the transport member.
- the displacement member can be advantageously always put into operation, for example, by being brought into its working position when the transport member has reached a predetermined rotational position.
- the coupling arranged on the transport member guide track for guiding a connected to the sliding member running element is present.
- the guideway may for example be part of a cam, which is arranged on the transport member.
- the running element may in particular comprise a rolling element.
- a preferred and relatively simple and robust embodiment of the device according to the invention provides that the rolling drive element is arranged for movement out of or into the working position on an arm which is pivotable about a pivot axis.
- the arm can be loaded with a system pressure, for example by means of a tension spring, in the direction of the cam disc.
- a tension spring for example by means of a tension spring
- the arm may be formed as a two-armed lever about its pivot axis and in the region of the rolling drive element facing away from the lever arm a drive be arranged so that it generates or amplifies the system pressure by its weight, z. B. in addition to the said tension spring.
- the sliding member designed in this way must not hinder the work of the transporting body. Therefore, a further development provides that the arm and the drive train to the rolling drive element extending drive train is led out of the working area of the transport member, preferably at least once angled.
- a drive member can be provided for the drive of the rolling drive element, which is controlled on and off, so that independently of a working and a rest position, the sliding member can be selectively controlled in operation.
- the transport member is preferably formed in a conventional manner as a rotating transport disc and may have a plurality of evenly distributed arranged receptacles, in particular two diametrically opposed receptacles, which are formed in a simple case as receiving slots.
- One of these receptacles can therefore be located at the delivery point, while the other receptacle already takes over the next arched element at the collection point.
- a receiving slot for example, be formed so that the disk body of the transport disk in the region of the receptacle has a flattening, which forms the inside of the receiving slot, while externally, for example, a metal tongue on the disk body is attached, which forms the outside of the receiving slot.
- each jaw-like receptacle is formed tab-like with an axial projection on the disk body as a working area for the rolling drive element.
- This may be particularly preferably done while the arcuate element is transported even further in the transport direction, which can be promoted by the fact that the inside of the tab projection is reduced in its frictional resistance, so that the arcuate element can slide out of him on the recording.
- a stop fixed relative to the transport member for example a stop strip interrupted for the passage of the transport member itself, is arranged for the front edge of the arcuate element inserted in the receptacle.
- a plurality of coaxial, spaced-apart transport members are present.
- two transport organs are arranged in mirror image with respect to a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation mirror plane. Accordingly, it is preferably provided that each transport member is associated with a displacement member and that the displacement members are drivingly synchronized with each other, preferably coupled together.
- Fig. 1 shows a sectional view through a device according to the invention, in which a rotatably drivable on a shaft 6 transport disc 1 for the transport and the deflection of an arcuate member 7 can be seen in a side view.
- the transport disk 1 has two guide tongues 2 arranged diametrically opposite one another, which in each case form a receiving slot for a curved element 7 with the disk body, which by the way may also be designed to be somewhat spoke-like.
- an arcuate element is conveyed in the region of an upper detection point in a receiving slot by means of transport rollers 3, without the leading edge of the arcuate element should completely pierce into the slot base to avoid damage.
- the thus-detected arcuate element is rotated by the transport disk 1 in the illustration of Fig. 1 promoted in a clockwise direction to a delivery point, in which it abuts a stop bar 14, released by further rotation of the transport disc 1 from the receiving slot and is deposited on a stack 5.
- an arcuate element 7 is shown as an example during transport shortly before reaching the stop bar 14. It should be noted that the arcuate element has already been released in this position with its trailing edge of the transport rollers 3.
- the transport disc 1 is also associated with a displacement member, the each arcuate element 7 very shortly before reaching the stop bar 14, if desired, a transverse shift can grant, namely in the representation of Fig. 1 in the direction out of the drawing plane.
- the displacement member comprises an arm 12 which is mounted on a bearing block 11 about a horizontal, parallel to the shaft 6 pivot axis 9 pivotally.
- the arm 12 is loaded with a tension spring 8, which, like the bearing block 11 is attached to a skeleton 17 for the device, in the upward direction. This load is also supported by the weight of a drive unit 10 by lever arm of a two-armed lever.
- a roller 18 on a circumferential guideway of a cam 4 forcibly to the plant, which is arranged co-rotating on the transport disc 1.
- the arm 12 is always pressed counter to its spring load down when a receiving slot approaches the stop bar 14.
- a roller drive element 16 for transverse displacement act on the incoming in the receiving slot arcuate element 7, which is arranged at the free end of the arm 12.
- This rolling drive element 16 is rotated by the drive unit 10 via a coupling 20 and shafts 13 and 19 (see in particular Fig. 2 ).
- Fig. 2 shows a plan view of the device according to Fig. 1 , The same components are denoted by the same reference numerals as in Fig. 1 ,
- the guide tongue 2 is widened like a tongue, so that it protrudes axially beyond the body of the transport disc 1 in order to serve the roller drive element 16 as a support and abutment in its operation.
- the device thus shown operates essentially as follows:
- the rolling drive element 16 Shortly before the sheet-shaped element 7 to be deposited is pulled against the stop bar 14, the rolling drive element 16 forcibly descends due to the cam disc 4 located on the transport disc 1.
- roller drive element 16 After the roller drive element 16 has contacted the arcuate element 7 and rests on the protruding tab of the guide tongue 2, the rotation of the roller drive element 16 can begin. This rotational movement is controlled by the drive 10.
- transverse sliding movement can additionally rotate the transport disk 1 further, if there is a sliding surface on the inner side of the tab, which significantly reduces the coefficient of friction between arcuate member 7 and tab, compared to the coefficient of friction Rollantriebselement 16 / arcuate element 7.
- the protruding tab length is sufficiently dimensioned in the direction of rotation, so that the time window is large enough for the required transverse displacement distance.
- the placement of the rolling drive element 16 to be deposited on the arcuate element 7 can also be used as a stop element for the arcuate element 7, so that the subsequent contraction of the arcuate element takes place against the stop bar 14 with very low energy and rebounding of the arcuate element 7 of the stop bar 14 is excluded.
- the roll drive member 16 is in turn forcibly controlled via the cam 4, lifted off the arcuate element 7, so that the entire slot area is released again for a next arcuate element 7.
- cam size should be interpreted accordingly, so that sufficient time is available for the entire filing process for all sheet formats.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Transport eines im wesentlichen bogenförmigen Elementes, insbesondere zum Transport eines Bedruckstoffbogens in einer Druckmaschine, vorzugsweise in einer elektrofotographisch arbeitenden Druckmaschine, umfassend wenigstens ein das bogenförmige Element von einer Erfassungsstelle bis zu einer Abgabestelle transportierendes und dort abgebendes, rotierendes Transportorgan, welches zur Erfassung und Mitnahme des bogenförmigen Elementes wenigstens eine maulartige Aufnahme zur Einführung bzw. Einsteckung des Vorderkantenbereiches des bogenförmigen Elementes aufweist, und umfassend wenigstens ein mit dem Transportorgan gekoppeltes Verschiebeorgan zur im wesentlichen parallel zur Rotationsachse des Transportorgans gerichteten Querverschiebung des bogenförmigen Elementes im Bereich der Abgabestelle.The invention relates to a device for transporting a substantially arcuate element, in particular for transporting a printing material sheet in a printing press, preferably in an electrophotographic printing machine, comprising at least one rotating transport member transporting the sheet-like element from a detection point to a delivery point and discharging there. which comprises for detecting and entrainment of the arcuate element at least one jaw-like receptacle for insertion or insertion of the leading edge region of the arcuate element, and comprising at least one coupled to the transport member displacement member for substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the transport member directed transverse displacement of the arcuate element in the region of the discharge point ,
Eine Vorrichtung der vorgenannten Gattung ist aus der
Mit der Möglichkeit einer Querverschiebung von bogenförmigen Elementen bei ihrer Ablage auf einem Stapel, ist es zum Beispiel möglich, zueinander quer versetzte Teilstapel zu bilden, die leichter voneinander abgehoben und getrennt werden können.With the possibility of a transverse displacement of arcuate elements in their placement on a stack, it is possible, for example, to form mutually transversely offset part stacks, which can be easily lifted and separated from each other.
Bei der bekannten Vorrichtung besteht das Problem, daß das Verschiebeorgan, welches als ein im wesentlichen pendelnd aufgehängter Schwenkarm ausgebildet ist, nach jeder Querverschiebebewegung über die Mittenposition wieder in die Ausgangslage zurückbewegt werden muß. Dadurch können unerwünschte Totzeiten für die gesamte Vorrichtung entstehen.In the known device, there is the problem that the displacement member, which is designed as a swinging substantially suspended swing arm, must be moved back to the initial position after each transverse displacement movement over the center position. This can cause unwanted dead times for the entire device.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, derartige Totzeiten zu vermeiden und eine Vorrichtung der genannten Gattung aufzuzeigen, die dadurch insgesamt mit einer höheren Arbeitsgeschwindigkeit betrieben werden kann.The invention has for its object to avoid such dead times and to show a device of the type mentioned, which can be operated as a whole with a higher operating speed.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß das Verschiebeorgan ein zur Verschiebung auf dem bogenförmigen Element abrollendes Rollantriebselement umfaßt.This object is achieved in that the displacement member comprises a rolling for displacement on the arcuate element rolling drive element.
Ein solches Rollantriebselement kann mit Vorteil in einem Drehsinn umlaufen. Eine Rückkehrbewegung entfällt daher. Allenfalls muß das Rollantriebselement in Funktion und außer Funktion gesetzt werden, je nachdem, ob und wann eine Querverschiebung gewünscht ist. Für eine solche Querverschiebung quer zur Transportrichtung durch das Transportorgan hat das Rollantriebselement eine Achse, die im wesentlichen etwa quer zur Rotationsachse des Transportorgans orientiert ist.Such a rolling drive element can rotate with advantage in a direction of rotation. A return movement is therefore canceled. At most, the rolling drive element must be set in function and disabled, depending on whether and when a transverse displacement is desired. For such a transverse displacement transversely to the transport direction by the transport member, the rolling drive element has an axis which is oriented substantially transversely to the axis of rotation of the transport member.
Nach einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß das Verschiebeorgan von einer Ruheposition in eine Arbeitsposition und umgekehrt bewegbar ist, so daß es auf diese Weise in Funktion und außer Funktion gesetzt werden kann und im übrigen im Prinzip kontinuierlich rotieren könnte. Ohne Rotation könnte das Rollantriebselement in Arbeitsstellung mit Vorteil auch einfach als Bremselement für den weiteren Transport des bogenförmigen Elementes durch das Transportorgan dienen, um beispielsweise einen Anschlag an einer Anschlagskante im Bereich der Abgabestelle zu dämpfen.According to a development of the invention it is provided that the displacement member from a rest position to a working position and vice versa is movable so that it can be set in this way in function and out of action and otherwise rotate in principle continuously. Without rotation, the rolling drive element in working position could advantageously also serve simply as a braking element for the further transport of the arcuate element by the transport member, for example, to damp a stop at a stop edge in the region of the delivery point.
Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, daß das Verschiebeorgan mit dem Transportorgan für eine erzwungene Bewegung in Abhängigkeit von der Drehstellung des Transportorgans gekoppelt ist. Dadurch kann das Verschiebeorgan beispielsweise mit Vorteil immer in Funktion gesetzt werden, indem es in seine Arbeitsstellung verbracht wird, wenn das Transportorgan eine vorbestimmte Drehstellung erreicht hat. Dazu kann bevorzugt vorgesehen sein, daß zur Kopplung eine an dem Transportorgan angeordnete Führungsbahn zur Führung eines mit dem Verschiebeorgan verbundenen Laufelements vorhanden ist. Die Führungsbahn kann zum Beispiel Bestandteil einer Kurvenscheibe sein, die an dem Transportorgan angeordnet ist. Das Laufelement kann insbesondere ein Rollelement umfassen.It is preferably provided that the displacement member is coupled to the transport member for a forced movement in dependence on the rotational position of the transport member. As a result, the displacement member can be advantageously always put into operation, for example, by being brought into its working position when the transport member has reached a predetermined rotational position. For this purpose, it can be preferably provided that for the coupling arranged on the transport member guide track for guiding a connected to the sliding member running element is present. The guideway may for example be part of a cam, which is arranged on the transport member. The running element may in particular comprise a rolling element.
Eine bevorzugte und relativ einfach und robust auszubildende Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung sieht vor, daß das Rollantriebselement zur Bewegung aus der oder in die Arbeitsposition an einem Arm angeordnet ist, der um eine Schwenkachse schwenkbar ist. Dabei kann der Arm mit einem Anlagedruck, zum Beispiel mit Hilfe einer Zugfeder, in Richtung auf die Kurvenscheibe belastet sein. Hierdurch ergibt sich eine rein mechanische Ausführungsform, die frei von anfälligen Sensoren oder dergleichen Elektronik sein kann. Zusätzlich kann der Arm als zweiarmiger Hebel über seine Schwenkachse ausgebildet sein und im Bereich des dem Rollantriebselement abgewandten Hebelarmes ein Antrieb so angeordnet sein, daß er durch seine Gewichtskraft den Anlagedruck erzeugt oder verstärkt, z. B. zusätzlich zur genannten Zugfeder.A preferred and relatively simple and robust embodiment of the device according to the invention provides that the rolling drive element is arranged for movement out of or into the working position on an arm which is pivotable about a pivot axis. In this case, the arm can be loaded with a system pressure, for example by means of a tension spring, in the direction of the cam disc. This results in a purely mechanical embodiment, which may be free of susceptible sensors or the like electronics. In addition, the arm may be formed as a two-armed lever about its pivot axis and in the region of the rolling drive element facing away from the lever arm a drive be arranged so that it generates or amplifies the system pressure by its weight, z. B. in addition to the said tension spring.
Das so ausgebildete Verschiebeorgan darf natürlich nicht die Arbeit des Transportorgans behindern. Deshalb sieht eine Weiterbildung vor, daß der Arm und der vom Antrieb zum Rollantriebselement verlaufende Antriebsstrang aus dem Arbeitsbereich des Transportorgans herausgeführt ist, vorzugsweise wenigstens einmal abgewinkelt ist.Of course, the sliding member designed in this way must not hinder the work of the transporting body. Therefore, a further development provides that the arm and the drive train to the rolling drive element extending drive train is led out of the working area of the transport member, preferably at least once angled.
Wie bereits weiter oben erwähnt kann für den Antrieb des Rollantriebselementes ein Antriebsorgan vorgesehen sein, das gesteuert ein- und abschaltbar ist, so daß auch unabhängig von einer Arbeits- und einer Ruhestellung das Verschiebeorgan wahlweise gesteuert in Betrieb genommen werden kann.As already mentioned above, a drive member can be provided for the drive of the rolling drive element, which is controlled on and off, so that independently of a working and a rest position, the sliding member can be selectively controlled in operation.
Das Transportorgan ist vorzugsweise in an sich bekannter Weise als rotierende Transportscheibe ausgebildet und kann mehrere gleichmäßig verteilt angeordnete Aufnahmen aufweisen, insbesondere zwei einander diametral gegenüberliegende Aufnahmen, die in einem einfachen Falle als Aufnahmeschlitze ausgebildet sind. Eine dieser Aufnahme kann sich also an der Abgabestelle befinden, während die andere Aufnahme bereits das nächste bogenförmige Element an der Erfassungsstelle übernimmt. Ein Aufnahmeschlitz kann beispielsweise so ausgebildet sein, daß der Scheibenkörper der Transportscheibe im Bereich der Aufnahme eine Abflachung aufweist, welche die Innenseite des Aufnahmeschlitzes bildet, während von außen beispielsweise eine Blechzunge am Scheibenkörper angebracht ist, welche die Außenseite des Aufnahmeschlitzes bildet. Insbesondere bei einer derartigen Schlitzausbildung kann vorzugsweise vorgesehen sein, daß die Außenbegrenzung, also zum Beispiel die Blechzunge, jeder maulartigen Aufnahme laschenartig mit einem axialen Überstand über den Scheibenkörper als Arbeitsbereich für das Rollantriebselement ausgebildet ist. Dies bedeutet, daß dieser Überstand die Unterlage für das bogenförmige Element bildet, das sich im Bereich der Abgabestelle befindet, über der das Rollantriebselement das bogenförmige Element zu der Querbewegung antreibt, mit der Lasche als Widerlager. Dies kann insbesondere bevorzugt geschehen, während das bogenförmige Element auch noch weiter in Transportrichtung transportiert wird, was dadurch begünstigt werden kann, daß die Innenseite des Laschenüberstandes in seinem Reibwiderstand vermindert ist, so daß das bogenförmige Element auf ihm aus der Aufnahme herausgleiten kann.The transport member is preferably formed in a conventional manner as a rotating transport disc and may have a plurality of evenly distributed arranged receptacles, in particular two diametrically opposed receptacles, which are formed in a simple case as receiving slots. One of these receptacles can therefore be located at the delivery point, while the other receptacle already takes over the next arched element at the collection point. A receiving slot, for example, be formed so that the disk body of the transport disk in the region of the receptacle has a flattening, which forms the inside of the receiving slot, while externally, for example, a metal tongue on the disk body is attached, which forms the outside of the receiving slot. In particular, in such a slot formation may preferably be provided that the outer boundary, so for example the metal tongue, each jaw-like receptacle is formed tab-like with an axial projection on the disk body as a working area for the rolling drive element. This means that this supernatant forms the pad for the arcuate element, which is located in the region of the discharge point, over which the rolling drive element drives the arcuate element to the transverse movement, with the tab as an abutment. This may be particularly preferably done while the arcuate element is transported even further in the transport direction, which can be promoted by the fact that the inside of the tab projection is reduced in its frictional resistance, so that the arcuate element can slide out of him on the recording.
Wie bereits weiter oben erwähnt kann vorgesehen sein, daß im Bereich der Abgabestelle ein gegenüber dem Transportorgan feststehender Anschlag, zum Beispiel eine zum Durchtritt des Transportorganes selbst unterbrochene Anschlagleiste, für die in der Aufnahme eingesteckte Vorderkante des bogenförmigen Elementes angeordnet ist. Hierdurch wird das bogenförmige Element zurückgehalten, während sich das Transportorgan weiterbewegt, und kommt so zur Ablage aus der Aufnahme frei.As already mentioned above, it can be provided that in the region of the delivery point, a stop fixed relative to the transport member, for example a stop strip interrupted for the passage of the transport member itself, is arranged for the front edge of the arcuate element inserted in the receptacle. As a result, the arcuate element is retained while the transport member moves on, and thus comes to the filing of the recording free.
Zur besseren und insbesondere ausgerichteten Führung und Handhabung der bogenförmigen Elemente ist bevorzugt vorgesehen, daß mehrere koaxiale, zueinander beabstandete Transportorgane vorhanden sind. Vorzugsweise sind zwei Transportorgane spiegelbildlich bezüglich einer zur Rotationsachse senkrechten Spiegelebene angeordnet. Entsprechend ist bevorzugt vorgesehen, daß auch jedem Transportorgan ein Verschiebeorgan zugeordnet ist und daß die Verschiebeorgane antriebsmäßig miteinander synchronisiert, vorzugsweise miteinander gekoppelt sind.For better and in particular aligned guidance and handling of the arcuate elements is preferably provided that a plurality of coaxial, spaced-apart transport members are present. Preferably, two transport organs are arranged in mirror image with respect to a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation mirror plane. Accordingly, it is preferably provided that each transport member is associated with a displacement member and that the displacement members are drivingly synchronized with each other, preferably coupled together.

Außerdem ist in der
Die so gezeigte Vorrichtung arbeitet im wesentlichen folgendermaßen:The device thus shown operates essentially as follows:
Kurz bevor das abzulegende bogenförmige Element 7 gegen die Anschlagleiste 14 gezogen wird, senkt sich das Rollantriebselement 16 zwangsgesteuert durch die auf der Transportscheibe 1 befindliche Kurvenscheibe 4 ab.Shortly before the sheet-shaped
Nachdem das Rollantriebselement 16 das bogenförmige Element 7 kontaktiert hat und auf der überstehenden Lasche der Führungszunge 2 aufliegt, kann die Rotation des Rollantriebselementes 16 beginnen. Diese Drehbewegung wird über den Antrieb 10 gesteuert.After the
Bei dieser Querverschiebebewegung kann zusätzlich die Transportscheibe 1 weiter rotieren, wenn sich auf der innenliegenden Seite der Lasche eine Gleitfläche befindet, die den Reibkoeffizienten zwischen bogenförmigem Element 7 und Lasche , gegenüber dem Reibkoeffizienten Rollantriebselement 16 / bogenförmiges Element 7, deutlich herabsetzt.In this transverse sliding movement can additionally rotate the
Letztlich wird das abzulegende bogenförmige Element 7 weiter aus der Transportscheibe 1 herausgeführt und zusätzlich erfolgt die Querbewegung.Finally, the sheet-shaped
Wichtig dabei ist allerdings, daß die überstehende Laschenlänge in Rotationsrichtung ausreichend dimensioniert ist, damit auch das Zeitfenster groß genug ist für die geforderte Querverschiebestrecke.It is important, however, that the protruding tab length is sufficiently dimensioned in the direction of rotation, so that the time window is large enough for the required transverse displacement distance.
Das Aufsetzen des Rollantriebselementes 16 auf das abzulegende bogenförmige Element 7 kann gleichzeitig auch als Stopelement für das bogenförmige Element 7 genutzt werden, damit das anschließende Gegenziehen des bogenförmigen Elements gegen die Anschlagleiste 14 mit sehr geringer Energie stattfindet und ein Rückprallen des bogenförmigen Elements 7 von der Anschlagleiste 14 damit ausgeschlossen ist.The placement of the rolling
Nachdem das bogenförmige Element 7 seinen Querversatz erfahren hat und zum Stillstand gekommen ist, wird wiederum zwangsgesteuert über die Kurvenscheibe 4, das Rollantriebsorgan 16 von dem bogenförmigen Element 7 abgehoben, so daß der gesamte Schlitzbereich wieder für ein nächstes bogenförmiges Element 7 freigegeben ist.After the
Bei weiterem Rotieren der Transportscheibe 1 bewegt sich die überstehende Lasche unterhalb des Rollantriebselements 16 hindurch.Upon further rotation of the
Generell ist noch anzumerken, daß in der Darstellung nur eine Transportscheibe 1 dargestellt ist. Für den Ablageprozeß werden aber mindestens zwei Transportscheiben 1 und letztlich auch zwei Rollantriebselemente bevorzugt, damit das abzulegende bogenförmige Element 7 sich nicht verdrehen kann.In general, it should be noted that in the illustration only one
Damit aber nicht zwei Antriebe 10 für den Rollantrieb zum Einsatz kommen, kann man sich ein zwischen zwei Transportscheiben 1 befindliches Brückenelement denken, das die beiden Hebelarme der Rollantriebselemente 16 verbindet. Letztlich kann dann z.B. ein Riementrieb beide Rollantriebselemente 16 verbinden und gleichmäßig antreiben. Ein Synchronisieren der beiden Rollantriebselemente 16 würde damit auch entfallen.But so that not two
Bei diesem beschriebenen Querverschiebeprozeß ist darauf zu achten, daß das bogenförmige Element 7 bereits aus dem Transportrollenpaar 3 herausgefördert ist, bevor die Querverschiebung erfolgt.In this transverse displacement process described is to ensure that the
Diesbezüglich ist die Kurvenscheibengröße entsprechend auszulegen, damit für sämtliche Bogenformate ausreichend Zeit für den gesamten Ablageprozeß zur Verfügung steht.In this regard, the cam size should be interpreted accordingly, so that sufficient time is available for the entire filing process for all sheet formats.
