Definitions
- the invention is in the field of further processing of printed products and relates to a method and a device according to the preambles of the corresponding independent claims.
- the method and device according to the invention are used to feed a plurality of in particular different, flat partial products for further serial processing; they serve in particular to complete printed products conveyed in a serial conveying stream by adding a plurality of partial products to each of the printed products.
- Printed products such as newspapers or magazines are often completed by adding various sub-products, such as by adding inserts, brochures, individual supplementary sheets, smaller brochures, reply cards or even flat sample articles or sample bags.
- the printed products are usually conveyed along a completion line with a number of feed points, with a copy of a partial product type being added to each of the printed products at each feed point, for example by inserting the partial product into the printed product or placing it thereon.
- the completed printed products are then packaged, for example, in stacks or individually.
- the object of the invention is to create a method and a device for feeding a plurality of in particular different, flat partial products into serial further processing, in particular for completing serially conveyed printed products by adding a plurality of partial products to each printed product ,
- the invention is intended to simplify such a feed in comparison to the prior art with comparable or higher capacities, particularly in terms of the device. Nevertheless, the method according to the invention should neither restrict the requirements for the partial products with regard to their properties as such or with regard to the diversity of these properties, nor the manner in which the partial products are to be produced.
- the partial products which are to be added to the printed products for completion are arranged into partial product groups in a step preparing the completion, each of the partial product groups comprising the partial products to be added to a printed product and the partial product groups being arranged in succession in a row formed into a storage formation.
- the series of sub-product groups is created in one of its longitudinal directions and formed into a bearing formation, and the bearing formation is dissolved again in the opposite direction, thus representing a so-called "first-in-last-out" memory.
- the storage formation for a supply of the sub-product groups to a print product stream is positioned and dissolved, with each print product one of the sub-product groups added directly from the storage formation in this single feed, for example inserted into the printed product.
- the above-mentioned, preparatory step (series of sub-product groups and creating a storage formation from them) is completely decoupled in time and place from the effective completion step (add a sub-product group from the storage formation to each printed product).
- the storage formations created in the preparatory step can be transported and stored and are usually transported and temporarily stored between their creation and their dissolution.
- the completion service which should advantageously be the same as the manufacturing output for the print products to be completed, is completely independent of the performance that can be achieved in the preparatory step.
- the partial products usually produced before the printed products to be completed can be assigned to the groups at any time and with any performance, that is, the devices to be used for this need not be high-performance devices. Only one feeder is to be used for the completion step for the addition of a plurality of partial product types, so that the completion device can be kept compact. Furthermore, no precautions need to be taken to prevent conflicts between partial products to be added in succession, which further simplifies the completion device.
- the bearing formation created in the preparatory step is a winding, that is to say a winding core, on which the row of the sub-product groups is wound with the aid of a winding tape.
- the series of sub-product groups to be wound up is advantageously created by merging feed streams of the individual types of sub-products, the feed streams to be merged having the same speed and the same feed power (sub-products per unit of time) and the merging with respect to the position and phase of the feed streams in the manner of the separation the groups is coordinated when the storage formation and the group row are dissolved, in such a way that each sub-product group can be separated without the sub-products of the group having to be moved relative to one another and a subsequent group having to be moved.
- the feed streams are created for the merging of coils or other storage formations (stacks, bars, packages) and / or are, for example, online Printing press fed.
- the series of sub-product groups can also be created by collating, with the different types of sub-products being fed into the collating process, for example by investors.
- the sub-product groups are arranged relative to one another in such a way that the sub-products of the foremost group in the unwinding direction (rearmost in the unwinding direction) are simple, that is to say, for example, can be gripped together with a gripper, or the adhesion between the sub-products is such in the groups (if necessary by additional group stabilization or transverse stabilization) that they can be introduced into the printed product as a stable group without having to be taken for it.
- the sub-product groups are arranged in an overlapping manner in the row. If this is not the case, it is advantageous to releasably connect the successive groups to one another in order to stabilize the windings (row stabilization or longitudinal stabilization).
- Figure 1 is a schematic of the inventive method
- Figures 2 and 3 show two exemplary embodiments of the series of sub-product groups and the separation of the groups from the series, the sub-products or groups overlapping in the series;
- FIGS. 4 and 5 show two further embodiments of the series of sub-product groups in which the groups overlap;
- FIGS. 6 and 7 show two further embodiments of the series of sub-product groups, the groups being arranged one behind the other and stabilized (transverse stabilization);
- FIG. 8 shows a further embodiment of the series of sub-product groups, the groups being arranged one behind the other and releasably connected to one another (longitudinal and transverse stabilization);
- FIG. 9 shows a further embodiment of the series of sub-product groups in which the individual sub-product types overlap one another and the series are stabilized longitudinally, for example by auxiliary belts.
- Figure 1 shows in a very schematic manner the inventive method with a winding as a bearing formation.
- a plurality of, for example, three feed streams 1 with the same speed and the same output (supplied partial products per unit of time) are brought together in such a way that they form a row 2 of partial product groups.
- Exemplary embodiments of such series of partial products are shown in connection with the following figures.
- a storage formation is created on-line from the row 2 of sub-product groups, for which the row 2 is wound onto a winding core 4, for example with the aid of a winding tape 3 (on winding direction D).
- the winding 5 can have a diameter of up to approximately two meters and a weight of up to two tons.
- the winding core 4 can be rotatably arranged on a movable winding stand, so that the winding 5 can be transported and manipulated together with and each held by a winding stand.
- the winding 5 can also be manipulated and transported as such or lying on a pallet.
- the winding 5 is unwound (unwinding direction E), again creating the row 2 of sub-product groups, but moving in the opposite direction than was the case when winding.
- the unwound row 2 is shown in FIG. 1 immediately after the winding 5 parallel to the planar extent of the partial products, further away from the winding 5 with a view perpendicular to it.
- the foremost partial product group 7 is separated from the row 2 from the head end of the unwound row 2 and added to a printed product 8, which is conveyed past the feed point 6 in a serial printed product stream 9 parallel or transversely to the conveying direction.
- FIG. 2 shows in more detail than FIG. 1 a first, exemplary embodiment for a row 2 of sub-product groups 7, each of which comprises a sub-product of types A, B and C.
- the row 2 shown in FIG. 2 is suitable for separating the groups by gripping them from the side, that is to say by gripping edge regions parallel to the direction E.
- Row 2 is created by merging the feed streams 1.1 (sub-product type A), 1.2 (sub-product type B) and 1.3 (sub-product type C), the feed streams shown being all scale streams in which the leading edges lie at the top.
- all feed streams have the same speed and the same conveying capacity, that is to say the distances between the same locations of successive partial products are the same in each of the feed streams.
- the row is created in the direction shown by arrow D and resolved in the direction shown by arrow E for completion. The part of row 2 shown is thus the tail end when it is created, but the head end from which groups 7 are separated in the case of dissolution.
- one longitudinal edge of the feed streams is aligned with one another during the merge and the phase differences between the feed streams are selected such that all sub-products A, B and C of the group to be separated protrude at the head of row 2 to be resolved over the sub-products of the following group.
- the separation takes place by gripping in the edge region designated 10, for example by means of a gripper, which separates the gripped group from row 2, for example in direction F, and then passes it on directly to the printed product.
- the seized group can also be separated in the direction E from the head end of the row, whereby it must be accelerated with respect to the head end.
- the trailing edges of the sub-products of each group would advantageously be aligned with one another and, for example, the feed streams must be brought together in such a way that the center lines of the sub-products of the different feed streams meet one another are aligned.
- FIG. 2 shows, in essentially the same manner of illustration as FIG. 2, a further row 2 of sub-product groups 7 and a sub-product group 7 separated from row 2.
- row 2 the sub-products are arranged essentially diagonally and aligned with one another with respect to a corner. Some of the partial products overlap one another in row 2, the overlap being able to relate to the whole groups (as shown) or to the individual partial product types (analogous to FIG. 2).
- This row 2 is also suitable for a lateral grip and in the area of the corners of the sub-products aligned with one another. The groups seized are separated, for example, in a direction indicated by the arrow F.
- FIG. 4 shows the creation of a further row 2 of sub-product groups 7.
- a preliminary row 2 ' the leading edges of the sub-products of each group are aligned with one another.
- the sub-product groups are separated from this preliminary row 2 'and, for example, rotated by 180 ° with a cell wheel and placed in row 2 overlapping one another.
- This row in which the sub-products of each type do not overlap but in which the entire groups overlap and in which the aligned edges of the sub-products in each group are trailing, is wound up into a roll 5 (on winding direction D) and at Use again unwound (unwinding direction E), whereby the groups for the separation from the row on their leading side, on which the edges of the partial products contained therein are aligned, can be detected.
- FIG. 5 shows a further embodiment of a row 2 of partial product groups 7, which is wound up into a roll 5 in a step preparing for completion.
- this row it is again the sub-product groups 7 that overlap one another, the sub-products of each group along a longitudinal edge are aligned with one another and the groups for the separation are advantageously gripped laterally.
- FIG. 6 shows a further embodiment of a row 2 of sub-product groups 1; whereby these do not overlap in the row but are arranged one behind the other at a distance from one another.
- a row is particularly suitable for an unhealthy separation and feeding of the sub-product groups, that is, without grasping the foremost sub-product group after the winding 5 has been unwound.
- a stabilizing agent 20 is provided with which, for example, the adhesion between the sub-products in each group is increased, e.g. by the action of ultrasonic waves or by static electricity.
- FIG. 7 shows a row 2 of partial product groups 7 arranged one behind the other, which are stabilized in themselves (transverse stabilization).
- the partial products are single sheets which are connected to one another via folding edges, which may be perforated, so that each group has the form of a single-lane or multi-lane folding stack. It is also conceivable to connect or have the bottom or top sheet of each folding-stack-like sub-product group 7 connected to the bottom or top sheet of the adjacent groups (longitudinal stabilization).
- the folding stacks are then arranged analogously to the groups shown in FIG. 6, but with no significant distance between them, as row 2 and separated from one another at the top end of row 2, that is to say immediately before addition to the printed products.
- FIG. 8 also shows a row 2 of sub-product groups 7 which are connected to one another in a row, the connecting means not only stabilizing the winding by connecting the groups to one another but also connecting the sub-products in the groups (longitudinal and transverse stabilization).
- a row of sub-product groups 7, for example created by collating, is guided onto a quasi-endless film web 30 and this is placed around the groups 7 with suitable means and closed over the groups, as is the case in sections I and II (cutting planes transverse to Longitude of the row 2) is shown.
- the film web 30 is welded between the sub-product groups 7 (welding means 31), so that the groups in the row 2 successive groups represent interconnected packages.
- the row 2 stabilized in this way is wound up into the roll 5 and, if necessary, unwound again and dissolved for completion, the packages being separated from the head end of the row 2 and being added to the printed products as such.
- FIG. 9 shows a further type of longitudinal stabilization of row 2 of sub-product groups 7.
- Auxiliary tapes 3.1 and 3.2, auxiliary foils or auxiliary cords, which extend between feed streams 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3, as used for example in connection, are used here as stabilizing means were described with Figures 1 and 2 are positioned.
- the auxiliary belts may or may not be tensioned in the winding. They are advantageously narrower than at least some of the partial products, such that, for example, longitudinal edges of the partial products that are aligned with one another can be detected for the separation of the groups without the auxiliary belts being detected, so that groups thus detected are deducted from the auxiliary belts 3.1 and 3.2 can.
- the auxiliary tapes, films or cords are advantageously wound up again when the roll is released and used again for a next roll, as is also the case for the winding tape.
