Definitions

  • the invention relates to a folding drum of a folding apparatus according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the task of a folding drum is to temporarily transport a product to be folded in the folder and to press in a folding suitable orientation depending on the design of the folder in a jaw of a jaw cylinder or to pass to two folding rollers that advance the product with the desired folding line move into a gap formed between them and fold in this way.
  • the folding drum has a plurality of movable folding blades, which are extendable through openings in a jacket of the folding drum to introduce the product to be folded in a jaw or a gap between two folding rollers.
  • the movement of the folding blade is coupled via a gear to the rotation of the folding drum.
  • a product can be transferred to the hemming drum at a transfer point and travel one full turn on it without being rejected by a folding blade.
  • a second product is placed over the first and both are continued together by the folding drum. Now, if both products are repelled together by the folding blade, they are folded together.
  • DE 195 11 054 C2 discloses a drive for a folding blade of a folding drum, wherein the drive of the folding blade via a central gear.
  • GB 1 059 158 A discloses a folding drum of a folding apparatus with a folding blade arranged on a carrier.
  • a coaxial with the axis of rotation of the carrier arranged gear is provided, which has a different speed of the folding drum in one mode.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a folding drum of a folder, with the various modes are possible.
  • One of the two gear wheels is fixed, while the other gear wheel rotates depending on the selected production.
  • the gear coupling is unique.
  • the toothed coupling can slip into place when the folding drum rotates.
  • first and second wheel disc are suitably equipped with complementary teeth, which can be brought by axial displacement of the first wheel disc in engagement or disengaged.
  • These teeth are z. As by uneven tooth spacing or widths so designed so that they can be brought into engagement only in a small number m of uniformly distributed rotational positions of the two wheel discs relative to each other.
  • the number m depends on the gear ratio of the gear groups. If, with the frame of the gear unit assumed to be fixed, the gear units convert one revolution of the central wheel into an integer n of revolutions of the folding blades, then m can be any integer divisor of n including 1 or n. This ensures that a switch back to individual production only takes place if the folding knife, which was previously deactivated during collective production, is in a correct phase position.
  • the first wheel disc on a further toothing, which is complementary to a toothing on the frame of the gear unit and can be brought by displacement of the first gear wheel with this.
  • This toothing serves to lock the folding blade coupled to the first wheel disk during the collective production.
  • a folding blade 04 In the drum shell 01 of the folding drum shown in Fig. 1, three groups of slots 02 are each formed at an angular distance of 120 ° in the circumferential direction. At the top of Fig. 1 group of slots 02 a plurality of exiting projections 03 is shown, the part of a folding element 04, z. B. a folding blade 04, are.
  • the folding blade 04 is arranged on a support, which will be explained in more detail with reference to FIG.
  • drum shell 01 further functional groups such as grippers or Vietnameseumadelleisten can be arranged for holding a product entrained on the folding drum, which are not shown for simplicity of illustration in Fig. 1 and are not described, since they are known in the art and of the invention not be further educated.
  • a shaft 08 is formed, which serves for the rotatable mounting of the folding drum in (not shown) frame of a folder.
  • a shaft 09 which carries the inner structure of the folding drum, extends eccentrically through the opening 07.
  • the shaft 09 carries inside the folding drum two oppositely extending arms 11 and a gear unit 12, the two axes parallel to the shaft 09 axes rotatable folding blade shafts 13; 28 wear.
  • the housing of the gear unit 12 is rigidly connected to the portion of the shaft 09 facing the observer in FIG. 2 and rotatable together with the folding drum in the interior thereof.
  • the shaft 09 is extended by a shaft portion 14, which will be referred to as the second gear pulley shaft 14 for reasons which will become apparent in connection with FIG.
  • This second gear pulley shaft 14 is provided to be non-rotatably mounted in a side plate of the folder. Through an axial cavity of the second Gear disk shaft 14 extends a first shaft portion 16, a so-called first gear disk shaft 16th
  • Fig. 3 illustrates the internal structure of the gear unit 12.
  • the two gear disk shafts 16; 14 are rotatably passed through an opening of the housing 17 or frame of the gear unit 12 and each carry a first gear disk 18 and a second gear disk 19. Since the second gear disk 19 is rigidly connected to the second gear disk shaft 14, it follows a rotation of the gear unit 12th not around the axis of the shaft 09.
  • the gear unit 12 rotates, it drives a gear group formed of an intermediate gear 21 rotatable about an axis connected to the housing 17 and a gear 22 fixed to the folding blade shaft 13. While the gear unit 12 rotates about the axis of the shaft 09, the folding blade shaft 13 moves on a circular path around the shaft 09 and simultaneously rotates about its own axis.
  • the tip of the folding blade 04 mounted on it describes a cycloid. Due to the eccentric arrangement of the shaft 09 with respect to the drum shell 01, the folding blade 04 only exits at one point of its cycloidal path through the slots 02 of the drum shell 01.
  • the first gear wheel 18 is displaceable by axial displacement of the first gear disk shaft 16 between two positions. In a first position, it couples over at the mutually facing end faces of the two gear wheels 18; 19 arranged teeth 23; 24 to the second gear wheel 19 and is thus held immovably with respect to the frame of the folder. In this position drives the first gear wheel 18 to another gear group 18, 26, 27, which consists of an intermediate gear 26 and a gear 27 of the second folding blade shaft 28. In this state, the folding blade 04 of the second folding blade shaft 28 moves on the same cycloidal path as that of the first folding blade shaft 13. This state corresponds to the double production.
  • the teeth 29; 31 consist of a large number of uniformly arranged teeth, the engagement of the teeth 29; 31 allow each other in a variety of each only separated by small angles of rotation orientations.
  • the teeth 23; 24, as shown in FIG. 4 a small number of teeth 32, which have uneven lengths and are arranged at irregular intervals, to each only in three orientations of the two gear wheels 18; 19 with respect to each other to allow an intervention.
  • This feature ensures that when restoring the coupling between the gear wheels 18; 19 the folding blade 04 of the temporarily shut down second folding blade shaft 28 has the same position as before the suspension of the coupling. This may require that when switching from collective to individual production, the folding drum must first be rotated a little bit slowly until the teeth 23; 24 can be engaged.
  • the teeth 32 could also be arranged so that only in a single rotational position, an engagement is possible.
  • the change in the rotational speed of the folding element 04 via an adjusting device coaxial with the axis of rotation 09, 14, 16 of the carrier, d. H. the shaft 09 and the shaft portion 14 or 16, in particular in the journal, is arranged.
  • the axis of rotation of the folding drum and the axis of rotation 09, 14, 16 of the carrier of the folding element 04 are arranged eccentrically to one another.
  • the folding element 04 is at a further eccentric to the rotation axis 09, 14, 16 of the carrier arranged rotational axis 13; 28 arranged rotating.
  • the transmission structure described can also be used for a folding drum, which has instead of folding blades 04 jaws 04, so for a jaw cylinder.
