Definitions

  • the invention is in the field of general cargo processing and relates to a device according to the preamble of the independent claim.
  • the device is used to collate flat objects and to convey the articles further, the flat objects being in particular printed products.
  • the skilled person understands the stacking of different printed products into stacks, wherein the same printed products usually lie in the same order in all the stacks, but the stacks may also differ from each other, if individual printed products are missing from individual stacks.
  • the printed products are, for example, individual, unfolded or folded sheets or multiply folded signatures and the printed products compiled into a stack differ from each other in terms of their printed content, but may additionally differ in their shape.
  • Devices for collecting printed products have a plurality of feeding units and a collating means.
  • Each feeder unit is equipped to feed one type of printing product to the collator and the collator is equipped for the production of Stack from the supplied printed products.
  • the feed unit outputs directed against the collating means are arranged substantially one after the other in a row and the collator means comprises a series of compartments for receiving the printed products fed, the row of feed outlets being parallel to the row of compartments.
  • one compartment each is aligned with one feed outlet each.
  • the collating means is equipped for conveying the supplied printed products in a collating direction directed parallel to the two said rows.
  • the feed units are, for example, feeders, winding stations or on-line connections with devices in which the printed products to be assembled are created or processed.
  • the compartments are stationary during the feeding steps and the printed products are pushed or thrown from the side into the compartments aligned with the feeder outlets. Between successive feed steps, the printed products with the compartments in the collation direction are shifted by the distance between successive feeders (or by an integer book portion of that distance) such that the compartments aligned with the feed outlets are replaced by successive compartments.
  • the compartments of such devices are usually arranged such that the printed products lie horizontally therein.
  • US 2561070 Such a device is described, whose compartments have a corner which is lower than the other three corners, such that the printed products deposited therein are aligned by gravity at this one corner.
  • Collapsing devices are also known whose compartments always remain stationary.
  • the printed products fed to the compartments are slid through the following compartments between feed steps by means of a slider in the gathering direction from the compartment to which they are fed until all the printed products fed in the previous feeding step are in a compartment which is in front of the foremost supply exit is arranged.
  • the printed products pushed from compartment to compartment to be neatly stacked in such a device, it is necessary for the printed products in the gathering direction to be inclined, that is to say the trays of the compartments are arranged correspondingly obliquely.
  • Collating devices with the described completely stationary compartments with inclined in the collation direction soils are described for example in the publications US 1861406 . GB 1444487 or EP-0292458 ,
  • Collapsing devices with compartments moving essentially continuously in the collating direction do not have the disadvantages mentioned.
  • the printed products but with the collation direction must be substantially rectified and precisely synchronized with the compartments pushed or thrown into the compartments, and their speed is adapted to the conveying speed of the compartments.
  • the gathering means known such devices for example, a conveyor belt with transversely and optionally also arranged along the strip length partitions, each two adjacent transverse walls define a compartment. In these compartments, the supplied printed products are stacked lying on the conveyor belt.
  • Other known collating devices with continuously conveyed compartments have V- or L-shaped compartments in which the supplied printed products stand on one edge and lean against a wall leading or trailing in the collating direction.
  • Continuously conveyed compartments in which the printed products are stacked horizontally are very easy to implement (e.g., conveyor belts with transverse walls) and do not impose high accuracy requirements on the feeder, since they have large openings and may also be larger than the printed products to be supplied.
  • the compartments in the gathering direction must have a relatively large size, very high conveying speeds are necessary for high unit outputs, which limits the use.
  • the stacked printed products in the compartments especially if they are larger than the printed products, actually not kept and the stacks are not stabilized, which in particular in a further promotion with accelerations and / or directional changes and when removing the stack from the compartments or in the further processing of the stack can lead to increased effort.
  • V- or L-shaped compartments can be conveyed much closer one behind the other, so that significantly less conveying speeds are necessary for the same unit performance.
  • the printed products in these compartments stand on one edge and automatically remain aligned relative to this edge by the action of gravity.
  • the openings of the compartments are significantly narrower and a relevant higher accuracy in feeding necessary, not only so that the most unguided leading edge of a supplied printed product meets the department opening at all, but in particular so that this leading edge securely at upper edges of already stacked in the compartment products can be passed over.
  • high feed accuracy limits the conveying speed and thus the piece performance of the appropriately equipped collating devices.
  • the compartments are also equipped with retaining means, are pressed by the already stacked products against one wall and thus can not come into conflict with a further supplied printed product. Such measures make the compartments complex and complex in terms of equipment and control.
  • the invention now has the task of providing a continuously operable device for collating flat objects, in particular printed products, and for conveying the collated articles or printed products, the device being able to be realized with the simplest means. Nevertheless, the device should be suitable for high unit performance and allow further promotion of the collected printed products without significant restrictions and a simple transfer to a subsequent funding.
