Definitions

  • the invention relates to a folder feeder with a drum, with which sheet and in particular sheet, for example, be deducted from a stack and a folding device can be supplied with a first Rillrad, which is arranged on the drum and with a second Rillrad, for the grooves of the withdrawn sheet cooperates with the first creasing wheel.
  • a folder feeder of this kind is for example from the EP-A-1 247 775 known.
  • printed sheets are sucked with suckers and grippers as single sheets of a stack and folded on a folding blade in a continuous.
  • the folded sheets are placed on a gathering chain and detected by this with drivers.
  • the withdrawn sheets are grooved prior to folding.
  • the grooved press sheets are folded along the formed groove on the folding blade in a continuous process.
  • the quality of the fold depends largely on the quality of the groove.
  • a not even deep or even interrupted groove can be a blurred, incomplete or not closed Lead fold.
  • the folded sheets are used to produce printed matter such as brochures, magazines, catalogs or books. The quality of these printed products is also dependent on the folding quality of the sheets.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a folder feeder of the type mentioned, which allows a higher folding quality and still high performance and reliability.
  • the task is solved in generic Falzanleger in that the second Rillrad is mounted on a Tastrad which runs on the first Rillrad and is resiliently pressed against a running surface of the first Rillrades and keeps constant the distance of the second Rillrades to the peripheral surface of the first Rillrades. Under a creasing wheel is in this case understood a wheel that perforates the bow.
  • the jockey wheel very effectively compensates for a non-circular run of the first creasing wheel.
  • a non-circular run can be caused by an imbalance, an ovality or eccentricity of the drum, especially at high power.
  • the scoring wheel engages with its creasing edge always the same depth into the groove of the first scoring wheel and accordingly ensures that the groove formed is always evenly deep.
  • the axis of the second Rillrades thus holds a constant distance from the peripheral surface of the first Rillrades. Since the second scoring wheel is pressed against the first scoring wheel, out-of-roundness or eccentricity of the first scoring wheel is immediately compensated.
  • the grooved bow and folded which have a very different weight, for example, a weight in the range of 70 g / m 2 to 260 g / m 2 .
  • the groove depth can be for example 0.02 mm. Due to the said compensation, the demands on the manufacturing tolerances and thus the manufacturing costs of the folder feeder can be reduced.
  • the second Rillrad is mounted adjustable on the jockey wheel.
  • the second scoring wheel is mounted on the jockey wheel via an eccentric. This makes it possible in a simple manner, to set the distance of the second Rillrades to the peripheral surface of the first Rillrades and thus the depth of the groove.
  • the second scoring wheel and the first scanning wheel form a unit which is mounted with one arm on a rod which runs parallel and at a distance from the shaft of the first scoring wheel or the drum. This allows a particularly reliable and stable storage of the second Rillrades and the Tastrades.
  • the contact pressure of the second Rillrades can be changed with an adjustment. This is particularly easy and accurate with a Bowden cable that attacks the arm mentioned.
  • the sheets are transported substantially vertically while creasing.
  • the sheets are taken with a gripper drum and guided between belts.
  • the folding feeder 1 shown in Figure 1 has a drum 7 which is driven in a known manner by a shaft 9 in a clockwise direction.
  • the drum 7 has at least two spaced-apart drum wheels 57, each having a movable gripper 8 and a suction device 34 on its circumference. With these sheets 4 are withdrawn from a stack 3, which is mounted in a magazine 5. With rotating drum 7, the lowermost sheet 4 of the stack 3 is taken in each case and moved downwards in the clockwise direction.
  • the withdrawn sheets 4 are each guided between conveyor belts 23.
  • FIG 2 two such conveyor belts 23 are indicated. These are each u.a. guided with a roller bearing 22 to a frame-fixed rod 19.
  • the sheets 4 are in particular printed sheets, which are provided for example for the production of magazines, brochures or books.
  • the withdrawn sheets 4 are each fed individually to a folding device 6.
  • This consists of a folding blade 39, which-as kann- inclined and tangent to the drum 7 runs.
  • a folding blade 39 At the folding blade 39 an endless round string 36 is mounted, which is placed around two spaced-apart rollers 37 and 38.
  • the round string 36 cooperates with a folding belt 35 which is driven in the direction of the arrow 42.
  • the withdrawn sheet 4 are taken on the folding blade 39 of the round string 36 and the folding belt 35 of the conveyor belts 23 and folded between folding rollers 44.
  • the folds are each re-pressed and finally the sheet 4 individually via a sword extension 40, for example, to a here only indicated conveying device 2 a saddle stitcher where it is detected by drivers 52 and moves in Figure 1 to the left in the direction of arrow 43 become.
  • the sheets 4 are hereby straddling the fold on top of the conveyor of the saddle stitcher.
  • the scoring device 10 is fixed to the drum and the scoring wheel 17 is driven according to Figure 1 in a clockwise direction.
  • the scoring device 10 has a further scoring wheel with a cylindrical peripheral surface 11, in which a circumferential groove 13 is incorporated.
  • a tread 12 for a Tastrad 15 At a distance from the groove 13 has the peripheral surface 11 according to Figure 5, a tread 12 for a Tastrad 15, which is rotatably mounted on an arm 21.
  • This arm 21 is connected according to Figures 2 and 3 with the rod 19 which is secured by its ends by means of flanges 20 on a machine frame, not shown here.
  • the Tastrad 15 is mounted with a roller bearing 26 on an axle 28, which in turn is mounted with bearing 27 in arm 21.
  • the Tastrad 15 has a cylindrical peripheral surface 45 which is resiliently pressed with a clamping device 30 on the tread 12.
  • the contact force is generated according to Figure 3 by a spring 33 which is supported on a nut 53 which is screwed onto a cylindrical screw 53.
  • the nut 53 is supported via a part 54 on a frame 55 only indicated here.
  • a slot 56 makes it possible to adjust the tension of the spring 33.
  • the tensioned spring 33 acts via a holder 31 of the tensioning device 30 on the arm 21.
  • the holder 31 is fixedly connected to the arm 21 and extends approximately at right angles to this.
  • the force acts according to Figure 3 in the direction of arrow 47, wherein the rod 19 forms the axis of rotation. By this force, the feeler wheel 15 is pressed on the other creasing wheel of the creasing device 10 with a constant but adjustable force.
  • the axis 28 is connected according to Figure 2 via an eccentric connection 16 with an axis 18 on which with a rolling bearing 25, the Tastrad 15 is rotatably mounted.
  • the creasing wheel 17 has at its periphery a circumferential creasing edge 24. This creasing edge 24 engages according to Figure 5 with pressed Tastrad 15 with a constant depth in the groove 13 a.
  • the depth of the groove 13 is for example 0.02 mm.
  • Conceivable here is also an embodiment in which the groove 13 is replaced by a web and the creasing wheel 17 has a corresponding circumferential groove instead of the creasing edge 24.
  • both creasing wheels can also be designed so that the continuous sheets 4 are perforated.
  • the withdrawn sheets 4 are grooved between the creasing wheels 10, 17 in a substantially vertical transport in the flow.
  • the Tastrad 15 runs in each case on the withdrawn sheet 4, which is pressed by the contact pressure of the Tastrades 15 to the peripheral surface 11.
  • Creasing wheel 17 rotates passively about the axis 18, the distance to the peripheral surface 11 and the groove 13 is held constant by the scanning feeler 15.
  • the tread 12 here is the reference surface which is concentric with the groove 13.
  • scoring wheel 17 follows the readjustment movements of the feeler wheel 15. A run-out or eccentricity changed during production is thereby compensated.
  • the engagement of the Rillrades 17 in the groove 13 is thus kept constant and, accordingly, the groove or perforation formed in the withdrawn sheet 4 is uniformly deep. Due to the eccentric connection between the feeler wheel 15 and the axis 18, the distance between the axis 18 and the peripheral surface 11 can be adjusted. Thus, it is possible to set the groove depth exactly.
  • the grooved sheet 4 are as described above, the folding device 6 passed and with this, the sheet 4 are folded along the groove formed between the folding rollers 44.
  • the contact pressure of the feeler wheel 15 on the other creasing wheel can be adjusted according to Figure 3 with a Bowden cable 29 having adjustment 14.
  • the Bowden cable 29 engages with a cable 49 on a spring 32 which is connected to the holder 31.
  • the Bowden cable 29 is mounted on a frame-fixed support 50 and can be operated on a hand wheel, not shown here.
  • the guide sleeve 51 of the Bowden cable 29 is as shown connected via a holder 48 with the arm 21. If the spring 32 is tensioned with the Bowden cable 29, then a back pressure is built up on the spring 33 and thus the contact force of the feeler wheel 15 is reduced to the other Rillrad. Conversely, the contact pressure can be increased accordingly.
