Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for folding flat workpieces.
  • a device for folding flat workpieces is for example off DE 197 47 997 A1 known.
  • the Taschenfalz worn typically comprises three operationally continuously rotating rollers forming a pair of transport rollers and a Falzwalzencru and this are usually arranged axially parallel under horizontal alignment and have a common transport roller pair and the Falzwalzencru roller, which forms a transport nip with a transport roller and a folding gap with a folding roller.
  • the three rolls a folding pocket with a pocket mouth and an adjustable pocket stop is assigned such that a transport gap passing flat workpiece - usually a previously printed sheet - runs through the pocket mouth in the folding pocket and impinges with the leading edge of the workpiece on the pocket stop.
  • Adjusting means provided in the form of a servomotor, by means of which the pocket stop is adjustable by changing its distance from the pocket mouth.
  • the not belonging to the pair of transport rollers roller of the folding roller pair of the known device is deflected by the passing of the folding gap signatures.
  • Corresponding deflections are detected by means of a sensor whose signals are combined in a control unit with measured values for the conveyed arc length between the inlet of the sheet in the device and the fold, so that in incorrect position of the fold break with respect to, for example, the leading edges of the arc control unit in turn the mentioned servomotor to adjust the pocket stop in terms of a correction of the position of the fold breakage.
  • Known folding pocket has a pocket stop, which in addition to adjusting its distance from the pocket mouth is rotatable about a point which lies in the longitudinal center of the pocket stop.
  • a pocket folding machine which has adjustable stops.
  • a folding sheet striking the stop strip of the folding machine is registered in its position by sensors and its signals are forwarded to the control computer of the folding machine.
  • the control computer forms an average value of the deviation from the predetermined reference fold line. In case of deviations, this mean value is compensated by the control computer and two stepper motors are actuated for adjusting the stop bar in the folding machine.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a device for folding flat workpieces in such a way that in addition to retrofitting when changing the format of the workpieces required setup work by an operator can be dispensed with in the event that the workpieces are not exactly trimmed orthogonal.
  • control is preferably designed such that it reduces the delay time to a minimum.
  • the delay time depends on the orientation of said leading edge of the workpieces and the orientation of the pocket stop. With matching orientation of the anticipatory Edge and the pocket stop results in a minimum of the delay time. In this case, theoretically all points along the leading edge meet simultaneously on the pocket stop (in this case, it is assumed that the pocket stop has a closed stop face). Regardless of the orientation of the leading edge and the pocket stop results in each impact of this edge on the pocket stop a noise, among other things depending on the above orientations varying sound pressure levels. However, in the case of a minimum delay time, the occurring sound pressure level always assumes a maximum value.
  • the sound pressure although different workpieces result in different measured values for a respective maximum value when hitting different pocket stops with different speeds, is a particularly suitable measurement variable in order to generate the signals of the occurrence of the respective leading edge on the pocket stop by means of a sensor system.
  • the sensor provided for this purpose only requires a sound pressure sensor.
  • the requirements for the control means controlling the control means are relatively low, if as the target value of the delay time is a time window is provided, the extent of which is at least almost equal to zero.
  • the control does not require any stored therein - depending on a plurality of parameters - target value and it is here only designed to evaluate the means of the sensor generated sound pressure levels corresponding signals to control the actuating means such that, while approximating the orientation of the pocket stop to those of each leading edge of the workpieces ultimately at least almost a maximum value of the impact of the workpieces occurring on the pocket stop sound pressure level results.
  • the controller is designed so that an adjustment movement of the adjusting means initiated by the latter is maintained when an increase in the sound pressure level is associated therewith. Otherwise, the control causes a reversal of an initiated adjustment movement.
  • the controller compares successive signals that characterize the process of the impact of each leading edge of successive workpieces on the pocket stop in the case of generating these signals by means of a sound pressure sensor comprehensive sensor with regard to the height of the successive impact of the workpieces on the
  • it causes the actuating means, after the start of an actuating movement thereof and an optionally reversed direction of the actuating movement to standstill, if the comparison of said signals shows that the sound pressure level is at a level which is at least almost one order-specific maximum.
  • the controller is also able to store a nominal value signal representing the named level of the sound pressure level together with order-specific data (format, basis weight and the like of the workpieces) for similar follow-up orders.
  • empirically determined order-specific nominal value signals are stored from the outset.
  • the senor generates the process of hitting the respective leading edge of the workpieces on the pocket stop characterizing signals from frequency spectra of the impact of the workpieces on the pocket stop caused sounds and the device includes a frequency analyzer, which actual value spectra with in compares the setpoint value spectra stored in the control.
  • the adjusting means are controlled in dependence on the respective result of the comparison in the sense of an approximation of the spectra supplied by the sensor to the respective stored order-specific nominal value spectrum. This may in turn give rise to a reversal of an initially initiated adjusting movement of the actuating means.
  • a fast-working, digitally operating control is provided, which is real-time capable in a preferred embodiment.
  • the senor generates the process of striking the respective leading edge of the workpieces on the pocket stop characterizing signals in contrast to a later explained in detail embodiment of events that are caused by the contact of the workpieces with the pocket stop.
  • events include not only the creation of noise but also Movements and elastic deformations of the pocket stop. However, these movements as well as elastic deformations of the pocket stop are not part of the present invention.
  • the extension of the time window for the delay time within which the leading edge of the respective workpiece momentarily comes to a halt when hitting the pocket stop approaches the more zero the more precisely the orientation of the stop surface of the pocket stop that of the leading edge corresponds to the respective workpieces.
  • the conformity of the orientation of the stop surface of the pocket stop with that of each leading edge of the workpieces are in the case of taken with a view to the symmetry measures the movement processes and changes in shape of the pocket stop as a result of the impact of the workpieces on this symmetrical to the longitudinal center of the pocket stop.
  • said sensor system comprises encoders for measured values of movement processes or elastic deformations of the pocket stop and generates corresponding signals which characterize the process of impingement of the respectively leading edge of the workpieces on the pocket stop, which signals are then evaluated by the controller and used to control the Adjusting means are used in the sense that they adjust the pocket stop to an orientation in which the measured values arise symmetrically at least substantially as the longitudinal center of the pocket stop.
  • the sensors detect actual values of movement processes or changes in shape at locations symmetrical with respect to the longitudinal center of the pocket stop.
  • the evaluation of the signals by the control takes place on the basis of the comparison of the measured values obtained at the symmetrical locations.
  • the center-symmetric actual value detection enables the controller to memorize the setting means in the right direction from the outset.
  • the controller stops the actuating means when the orientation of the pocket stop meets the specifications.
  • the signals characterizing the process of impingement of the respectively leading edge of the workpieces on the pocket stop are already generated on the way of the workpieces in the direction of the pocket stop.
  • the sensor system is equipped with detectors, by means of which the orientation of a respective on the pocket stop to moving leading edge of the workpieces characterizing orientation signals are generated, and the controller is designed to evaluate these orientation signals the adjusting means in the sense of an alignment of the orientation of the pocket stop to those of the detected edge of the workpieces to control.
  • Orientation signals characterizing the orientation of this edge in turn allow the control to impart an actuating movement in the right direction to the adjusting means from the outset and to set the actuating means to a standstill when the orientation of the pocket stop meets the specifications.
  • Taschenfalzmaschine 1 is exemplary designed for four folds on flat workpieces 2 and has four folding pockets 3 to 6, of which each one - only reproduced in the case of folding pocket 3 - adjustable pocket stop 7.
  • a roller pair - formed from a transport roller 8 and a transport and folding roller 9 - conveys the in the direction of in Fig. 1 right arrow in unspecified manner delivered flat workpieces 2 in the first folding pocket 3, until the already mentioned upset fold forms when hitting the leading edge 2.1 of the workpiece 2 to the pocket stop 7, then in the folding gap between the transport and folding roller. 9 and a folding and transporting roller 10 in which the first folding takes place.
  • the folding and transport roller 10 transported together with the transport and folding roller 9, the resulting signature 2 'with vorseilendem fold break in a second folding pocket 4 and it runs a similar process from where the formation of folds in a folding gap between the folding and transport roller 10th and a folding and transporting roller 11 takes place, which in the further course together with the folding and transport roller 10 performs the function of a transport roller, etc., until the workpieces finally reach the last folding pocket - here the fourth of four - and a last pair of rollers 12 received a final fold.
