Definitions

  • the invention relates to a web-fed printing machine.
  • the DE 44 42 265 A1 discloses a web-fed printing machine having the features of the preamble of the new patent claim 1.
  • US 4,803,634 A shows a designed as an endless conveyor horizontal conveyor.
  • EP 0 623 467 A1 relates to a sheet-fed printing machine.
  • the present invention has the object to provide a novel web printing press.
  • the invention allows a fully automated handling of printing plates on a web-fed printing machine for performing a printing plate change, wherein there is no danger that printing plates are changed at wrong plate cylinder positions within a printing unit or on a wrong printing unit.
  • Fig. 1 and 2 show a highly schematized section of a web press in different views, namely in Fig. 1 in a plan view and in Fig. 2 in a side view, wherein the web-fed printing press comprises three printing towers 10, 11 and 12 each of two vertically superposed printing units 13 and 14, respectively. In the area of printing towers 10, 11 and 12, non-illustrated printing substrate webs are printed.
  • the exposure of the printing plates takes place according to a production scheme or imposition scheme.
  • the production scheme also includes the respective position of the printing plate in the printing tower or in the printing unit of a printing tower to print the printed product for which the production scheme or imposition scheme was created.
  • the exposed printing plates are, with the aid of a first conveyor 15 designed as a horizontal conveyor, according to FIG Fig. 2 is positioned above the printing towers 10, 11 and 12, automatically conveyed into the area of the printing tower 10, 11 and 12, respectively, on which the respective printing plate is required to execute a printing plate change. It can also be formed as a horizontal conveyor first conveyors are present, the z. B. above each printing unit 13, 14 of the printing towers can be positioned.
  • the trained as a horizontal conveyor first conveyor 15 is designed as a circulating endless conveyor having a plurality of receiving positions for receiving a respective individual printing plate 16.
  • first conveyor 15 associated transfer station 17 Via one of the first conveyor 15 associated transfer station 17 are exposed, new printing plates of the first conveyor 15 can be fed, each of the transfer station 17 transferred to the first conveyor 15 pressure plate in a separate receiving position of the first conveyor 15 recording.
  • the conveying direction of the first conveyor 15 is visualized by arrows 18.
  • the transfer direction of the transfer station 17 for supplying printing plates to the first conveyor 15 is shown by an arrow 19.
  • the respective pressure plate 16 from the first conveyor 15 to a second conveyor 20 can be handed over, according to Fig. 1, 2 both between the two printing towers 10 and 11 and between the two printing towers 11 and 12 each have a second conveyor 20 is positioned.
  • the transfer of printing plates 16 from the first conveyor 15 to the second conveyor 20 takes place in the direction of the double arrows 21.
  • Each second conveyor 20 comprises both a horizontal conveyor 22 and a plurality of handling arms 23. Via the horizontal conveyors 22 of the second conveyors 20, printing plates 16 can be transported exclusively in the horizontal direction.
  • the handling arms 23 are used for the vertical transport of the printing plates 16, wherein the handling arms 23 remove printing plates 16 from the respective horizontal conveyor 22 and feed the printing units at corresponding plate cylinder positions.
  • the transfer of printing plates 16 from the second conveyor 20 in the direction of the printing towers 10, 11 and 12 is in Fig. 1 represented by double arrows 24.
  • the conveying direction of the horizontal conveyor 22 of the second conveyors 20 is visualized by arrows 25.
  • the handling arms 23 of the second conveyors 20 consist of several articulated or pivotally interconnected segments, wherein, as already mentioned, the handling arms 23 serve to displace the printing plates 20 in the vertical direction.
  • the handling arms 23 are designed to be stationary in the axial direction of the plate cylinders of the printing towers 10, 11 and 12, respectively.
  • old printing plates to be removed are first removed by means of the handling arms 23 from plate cylinder positions of the respective printing towers 10, 11 and 12 and fed to the horizontal conveyors 22 of the second conveyors 20, then transferred to the first conveyor 15 and in the region of a transfer station 26 from the web press discharged and fed to a non-illustrated disposal station for old printing plates.
  • the transfer direction of the transfer station 26 is in Fig. 1, 2 visualized by an arrow 27.
  • Blanking plates are unexposed printing plates which, when individual plate cylinder positions are not required for printing, are tensioned at these plate cylinder positions.
  • the dummy plates can be supplied as well as exposed, new printing plates by means of the transfer station 17 of the first conveyor 15 in the direction of the arrow 19, wherein the subsequent handling of the dummy plates corresponds to the handling of newly exposed printing plates.
  • blank plates can be fed to the first conveyor 15 via a separate transfer station.
  • the exposure device has information on which printing plate is exposed and information on which position in the printing tower each exposed printing plate of the or each first conveyor and the or to promote each second conveyor. This can be done by controlling or regulating the exposure device and the first and second conveyors via a common control device on the basis of the data of the production scheme or imposition scheme.
  • In 3 and 4 comprises the second conveyor 20 in contrast to the embodiment of Fig. 1 and 2 no separate horizontal conveyor, but only handling arms 23, wherein the handling arms 23 serve both the displacement of the printing plates 16 in the horizontal direction and the displacement thereof in the vertical direction.
  • the handling arms 23 in the direction of the double arrows 28 in the axial direction of the plate cylinder of the printing towers 10, 11 and 12 are movable.
  • the handling arms 23 are movable in the horizontal direction and thus can be operated with a handling a plurality of plate cylinder positions can, in the embodiment of the 3 and 4 compared to the embodiment of the Fig. 1 and 2 the number of required handling arms are reduced because in the embodiment of Fig. 1 and 2 for each axial plate cylinder position a handling arm is required.
