  • the sub-collection chain and the main collection chain form at least along a feed path provided with Falzbogenanlegern parallel votingertrume, of which that of the main collection chain at least as far in the conveying direction beyond a stitching station out that transported in a transfer station an ejector blade astride the Sammelkettenan extract and stapled in the stitching station signatures takes off from the main collection chain and hands over to Auslegeb testing.
  • the conveying strand of the secondary collecting chain already ends before the stitching station.
  • the one approaching the ejection position approaching driver is brought shortly before the arrival of the specimen in the ejection position by pivoting against the conveying direction out of contact with the specimen to counteract the risk that the driver during the excavation of the specimen its position taken astride the main collection chain acts on the specimen in the conveying direction by means of the ejector blade and possibly jams it.
  • the invention has for its object to form a saddle stitcher of the type mentioned in such a way that it causes no uncontrolled changes in position on this way by means of this stapled signatures on their way into an ejection position.
  • a respective roof segment immediately adjacent to the abutment surfaces carries an auxiliary driver limited to the ridge region, which together with the latter forms a composite abutment surface in the working position of the driver.
  • the saddle stitcher according to Fig. 1 includes in the present embodiment, three folded sheet feeder 10, 12, 14, each straddle a folded sheet 16, 18, 20 astride a collecting chain arrangement not shown here in detail.
  • the stitching station 24 in the present exemplary embodiment comprises two stitching heads 26 and a respective one assigned to them, in FIG Fig. 1 unrecognizable Umbieger, which by means of Stapling heads 26 bend into the stitched to be copies 30 staples wire clips 27 and that the legs of the wire staples 27, which have penetrated the specimens 30.
  • the transfer station 29 in the present embodiment comprises a not shown in detail ejector blade and Auslegeb section 29.1.
  • the ejector blade intervenes in the respective fold fracture of the stapled copies 32, lifts them out of the transport and stapling line 22 and transfers them to the delivery slips 29.1, by means of which the stapled copies 32 are transported further in the direction of the arrow T, and to be preferred a trimming device.
  • a later-described measuring station 33 is provided, in which the thickness of the copies 30 to be stitched is determined.
  • the collecting chain arrangement in the present exemplary embodiment comprises an endless operationally circulating secondary collecting chain 40 and an endless, operationally circulating main collecting chain 50, which form conveying paths which extend on both sides of a guide strip 48.
  • These conveyor belts pass through all folded sheet feeder 10, 12, 14 together.
  • the sub-collection chain 40 dives below the guide strip 48 and the further transport of the copies to be stapled 30 and then stapled copies 32 to the transfer station 29 after the sub-collection chain 40 submerged by means of the main collection chain 50th
  • the sub-collection chain 40 and the main collection chain 50 each include a drive and Umlenkkettenson wraparound roller chain with inner and outer plates, evenly spaced on the outer plates a chain side such arranged pivot 44 or 54 that they are pivotable about a roller axis of the roller chain, and transverse to the roller chain inclined roof segments which are connected to outer straps the same chain side, said respective chain side and the inclination of the roof segments are provided such the sub-collecting chain 40 and the main collecting chain 50 together along the conveying run of the sub-collecting chain 40 represent a gable roof forming a ridge region F, in whose ridge region F a gap is formed, which is bridged by the guide strip 48.
  • the mutual distances of the drivers 44 of the sub-collection chain 40 are equal to those of the driver 54 of the main collection chain 50 and the phase position of the sub-collection chain 40 and the main collection chain 50 is set such that formed on the drivers 44 and the drivers 54 in the transport direction indicated by arrow P pointing stop surfaces 44.1 and 54.1 along the conveying run of the sub-collection chain 40 are flush, until such time as before submerging the sub-collection chain 40, a respective driver 44 of the sub-collection chain 40 from a working position in which he pushes a copy 30 in front of him, against the transport direction pivots away from this copy 30 according to arrow P.
  • This pivoting of the driver 44 and 54 takes place under its own weight, which is supported in the working position of the driver 44 and 54 of guide rails.
  • Fig. 3 this is shown by the example of the secondary collection chain 40.
  • the principle recognizable herein applies equally to the main collector chain 50 and its driver 54.
  • An endless roller chain 41 used to form the sub-collection chain 40 wraps around a drive sprocket 76 and a deflection sprocket (not shown here) and is guided between them by means of guide rails 46.
  • a respective one of the drivers 44 is coupled via an articulated connection 78 to the roller chain 41 such that it is pivotable about the axis of one of the chain rollers of the roller chain 41.
  • a respective driver 44 along the transport run of the sub-collection chain 40 by means of a cam follower roller 80 is supported on a guide rail 82 and thereby held in its working position.
  • baffles 64 and 70 are provided in particular following the sub-collection sub-chain. These support and guide each one leg of the astride transported copies 30, whose respective other leg is supported and guided by the roof segments 52 of the main collection chain 50. Accordingly, the baffles 64 and 70 are also inclined as the roof segments 42 of the secondary collection chain 40 and together with roof segments 52 of the main collection chain 50 form a gable roof forming a ridge region, wherein in the ridge region, in turn, a gap is formed bridging the already mentioned guide bar 48 becomes.
  • the measuring station 33 already mentioned comprises a fixed measuring roller 68 inserted into a recess of the guide plate 70 and a disengageable measuring roller 72 carried by a sensing arm 74.
  • the copies 30 to be stitched pass the measuring station 33 between the fixed measuring roller 68 and the disengageable measuring roller 72.
  • the stapled specimens 32 in the said transfer station 29 are lifted out of the transport and stapling line 22 by means of said ejector blade and transferred to the delivery belts 29.1.
  • the measures for preventing uncontrolled changes in position of the stapled specimens on their way into their ejection position are limited to the main collection chain 50.
  • the transport of the stapled specimens 32 preceding this process takes place exclusively by means of the main accumulator chain 50. It is understood, however, that in such a configuration of a saddle stitcher that this stapled copies transported by means of two gathering chains to the transfer position, the appropriate measures can be taken at both collecting chains.
