Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for transporting products according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the DE 40 12 084 A1 shows a book block transport channel in which the book blocks can be transported upright.
- the book block transport channel runs a conveyor with drivers, which push the book blocks through the transport channel.
- the width of the book block transport channel is adaptable to the product width.
- From the DE 196 48 173 A1 goes out a device for conveying printed products, such as printing sheet stack.
- the products are transported by a belt conveyor belt between them, which consists of opposing belt conveyors.
- the distance of the belt conveyor belt runs can be adapted to the thickness of the products to be transported.
- the products are transported horizontally.
- Object of the present invention is therefore to provide a device for transporting with a discharge device in which the products can be safely transported standing and discharged. This object is achieved by a device for transporting according to the characterizing features of claim 1.
- a device for transporting products, such as sheet stacks, collected signatures, book blocks or the like, has a transport channel for the stationary transport of the products.
- the width of the transport channel is adaptable to the product thickness.
- the device has a device for determining the product thickness.
- the width of the transport channel is automatically adapted to the product thickness.
- the device for transporting further has a discharge device, which has at least one channel-like executed point with a points drive and a control device for controlling the points drive.
- the switch is designed so that these directly to the transport channel followed.
- the device for determining the product thickness can also be mounted within the discharge device in the transport direction upstream of the at least one switch in the immediate vicinity of the switch, for example as a non-contact optical thickness sensor.
- the device for determining the product thickness also serves to determine the actual product thickness of a respective product and thus the completeness check of the product.
- the switch of the discharge device is switchable in an advantageous manner, so that a product can either be transported further straight through the transport channel or can be discharged, for example when the product is incomplete.
- the width of the channels of the switch, as well as the width of the transport channel, can be adapted to the product thickness.
- Such a discharge device advantageously allows an orderly discharge and thus the further processing of quality-tested precursors.
- the rejection device can eject the products both to the right and to the left of the transport channel.
- the control device of the discharge device is connected via data lines to the device for determining the product thickness, a machine control and the points drive.
- the machine control controls the transport speed and the transfer of the products to the device for transporting from a preceding machine and the transfer of the products from the device for transporting to a subsequent machine.
- the setpoint values for the product thickness can also be stored in the machine control.
- the product thickness is determined by the device for determining the product thickness and reported to the machine control. This gives default values for the width of the transport channel. These values can be adopted for the channel width adjustment of the turnout.
- the controller controls the switching of the switch and the width adjustment of the channels of the switch.
- the control device causes a rapid switching of the switch and thus allows a sorting of individual products.
- One possible procedure is as follows: One product is transported through the transport channel of the device for transporting and passes through the device for determining the product thickness. The actual thickness of the product is determined and compared with the specified thickness stored in the machine control. If both thicknesses match, the product is transported in a straight line through the transport channel. However, if the thicknesses do not match, the switch is switched and the product is discharged.
- the points drive causes the circuit of the switch and the width adjustment of the channels of the switch to the product thickness.
- the points drive can consist for example of a fast-switching electric motor for switching the switch and a further electric motor for width adjustment of the switch channels.
- the width adjustment of the channels of the switch takes place together with the width adjustment of the transport channels.
- the discharge device has at least two switches arranged one behind the other.
- the first switch is used, for example, the removal of defective products from the main transport channel and a second switch for feeding the error-free products in a stack display.
- the discharge device has at least one three-way switch. An output of the three-way switch can then be followed by, for example, an adhesive binder, a waste paper delivery and a stack delivery.
- a transport channel is connected to each outlet of the switch. The transport channel can then lead, for example, to an adhesive binder, a waste paper delivery or a stack delivery.
- the device for transporting has rotating drivers which circulate in the transport channel and move the products through the channel.
- the device also has means for transporting the products.
- conveyor belts can also be used here.
- the product display can be designed as a stack display, for example as a so-called Criss-Cross delivery. If, for example, the products are passed on from a collating machine via the device for transporting the products to an adhesive binder, the products can be laid out in the stack delivery. This is particularly advantageous when the gathering machine is operated at a higher speed than the perfect binder. If the gathering machine is operated, for example, at twice the speed of the perfect binder, then every second product that has been collected can be designed in the stack delivery. The stack delivery can also be advantageously used when the perfect binder has to be shut down due to an error. The gathering machine can then continue to operate and the products can be laid out in the stack display.
- the display can alternatively be designed as waste paper delivery. In the simplest case, this is a container which picks up the defective products.
- Fig. 1 shows a device for transporting 1 with a transport channel 4.
- Products 100 such as collated brochures or book blocks are transported by a gathering machine 10 in the transport direction T through the transport channel 4 on to an adhesive binder 40.
- the width y of the transport channel 4 is variable and can be adapted to the product thickness x of the products 100.
- a discharge device 2 is integrated with a switch 20.
- the switch 20 is located in a first switching position, which allows products 100 are transported in a straight line through the transport channel 4.
- the switch 20 is in a second switching position.
- products 100 coming from the gathering machine 10 are not further transported to the perfect binder 40, but are discharged through the switch 20, transported further through a second transport channel 5 and laid out in a display 30.
- the channel width y of the second transport channel 5 is also adapted to the product thickness x.
- the various components of the discharge device 2 are shown.
- the discharge device 2 has a switch 20, a points drive 21, a control device 22 and a device for determining the product thickness x, for example a thickness sensor 23.
- the thickness sensor 23 could alternatively be mounted further upstream in the gathering machine 10 in the transport direction T (not shown).
- a product 100 coming from the collating machine 10 is transported through the first transport channel 4 and passes through the thickness sensor 23.
- the thickness sensor 23 measures the thickness x of the product 100 and reports it to the control device 22.
- the control device 22 accesses the in the machine control 3 deposited desired thickness of the product 100 back and compares the actual product thickness x with the target thickness. If both agree, the switch is not switched and the situation arises Fig. 1 , However, if the product thicknesses do not match, the points drive 21 is actuated by the control device 22 and the points drive 21 causes a circuit of the switch 20, as in Fig. 2 shown.
- the product 100 is through the switched switch 20 from the first transport channel 4 in the second transport channel 5 discharged and designed in a subsequent to the second transport channel 5 display 30.

- a device for transporting 1 is shown, whose first transport channel 4 and whose second transport channel 5 have been adapted in their width y to a thin product 100.
- the switch 20 is in a first switching position which causes the products 100 to be transported in a straight line through the first transport channel 4 from a collating machine 10 to an adhesive binder 40.
- Fig. 4 is the switch 20 in a second switching position, which causes the products 100 discharged from the first collection channel 4, transported by a second collection channel 5 and stored in a display 30.
- FIGS. 5a and 5b two alternative embodiments of discharge devices 2 are shown.
- Fig. 5a shows a device for transporting 1 with a discharge device 2 with two points 20.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Transportieren von Produkten gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1.The invention relates to a device for transporting products according to the preamble of
Die Herstellung von klebegebundenen Büchern und Broschuren geschieht in mehreren Verfahrensschritten. In einem ersten Schritt werden die bedruckten Bogen in einer Falzmaschine gefalzt, in einem zweiten Schritt werden die Falzbogen in einer Zusammentragmaschine zusammengetragen und es werden Rohblöcke gebildet und in einem dritten Schritt wird ein jeweiliger Rohblock in einem Klebebinder an seiner Rückenfläche zu einem Buchblock verklebt und mit einem Umschlag versehen. In einem letzten Schritt erfolgt der Dreiseitenbeschnitt des Buchblocks. Häufig wird ein "Rohblock" auch bereits als "Buchblock" bezeichnet. Dieses Verständnis gilt auch nachfolgend.The production of bound books and brochures is done in several process steps. In a first step, the printed sheets are folded in a folding machine, in a second step, the folded sheets are collected in a collator and rough blocks are formed and in a third step, a respective ingot is glued in an adhesive binder on its back surface to a book block and with provided an envelope. In a last step, the three-page trimming of the book block takes place. Often, an "ingot" is also referred to as a "book block". This understanding also applies below.
Zum Transport von in einer Zusammentragmaschine zusammengetragenen Signaturen oder Buchblöcken zu einem Klebebinder kommen verschiedenartige Transportvorrichtungen zum Einsatz. Die
Aus der
Gemäß der
Häufig werden zusammengetragene Produkte in einer Zusammentragmaschine liegend transportiert, anschließend in die Senkrechte aufgerichtet, stehend weiter transportiert und an die Klammern eines Klebebinders übergeben. Als Beitrag zur Qualitätssicherung ist es sinnvoll, die Buchblöcke kurz vor Übergabe an die Klammern des Klebebinders zu überprüfen. Dies geschieht üblicherweise bereits in der Zusammentragmaschine durch eine Bogenkontrolle oder im Verlauf des Weitertransports durch eine Dickenmessung des Produktes. Bei einer Abweichung der Produktdicke von der Solldicke muss die Möglichkeit bestehen, den fehlerhaften Buchblock auszuschleusen. Nach dem Stand der Technik sind derartige Ausschleusweichen nur für liegend transportierte Buchblöcke bekannt. Diese bekannten Weichen lassen sich jedoch nicht ohne weiteres auf die Ausschleusung von stehenden Buchblocks übertragen. Hierbei ist wichtig, dass die Weiche eine schnelle Umschaltung ermöglicht und dass auch ausgeschleuste Produkte sicher weitertransportiert werden. Lange Einrichtzeiten zur Anpassung der Kanalbreite an die Produktdicke müssen vermieden werden.Frequently, collected products are transported lying in a collating machine, then erected in the vertical, further transported standing and handed over to the brackets of a perfect binder. As a contribution to quality assurance, it makes sense to check the book blocks just before handing over to the staples of the perfect binder. This is usually done already in the gathering machine by a bow control or in the course of further transport by a thickness measurement of the product. If the product thickness deviates from the target thickness, it must be possible to remove the defective book block. According to the prior art such Ausschleusweichen are known only for horizontally transported book blocks. However, these known switches can not be readily transferred to the discharge of standing book block. It is important that the switch enables a quick switchover and that even rejected products are transported safely. Long setup times to adjust the channel width to the product thickness must be avoided.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es deshalb, eine Vorrichtung zum Transportieren mit einer Ausschleuseinrichtung zu schaffen, in der die Produkte sicher stehend transportiert und ausgeschleust werden können. Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch eine Vorrichtung zum Transportieren gemäß den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen von Anspruch 1.Object of the present invention is therefore to provide a device for transporting with a discharge device in which the products can be safely transported standing and discharged. This object is achieved by a device for transporting according to the characterizing features of
Eine erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung zum Transportieren von Produkten, wie Blattstapeln, zusammengetragenen Signaturen, Buchblöcken oder dergleichen, besitzt einen Transportkanal zum stehenden Transport der Produkte. Die Breite des Transportkanals ist an die Produktdicke anpassbar. Dazu besitzt die Vorrichtung eine Einrichtung zur Bestimmung der Produktdicke. Vorteilhafter Weise wird die Breite des Transportkanals automatisch an die Produktdicke angepasst. Die Vorrichtung zum Transportieren besitzt weiter eine Ausschleuseinrichtung, welche mindestens eine kanalartig ausgeführte Weiche mit einem Weichenantrieb und eine Steuereinrichtung zur Steuerung des Weichenantriebs aufweist. Die Weiche ist so ausgeführt, dass sich diese direkt an den Transportkanal anschließt. Die Einrichtung zur Bestimmung der Produktdicke kann auch innerhalb der Ausschleuseinrichtung in Transportrichtung stromaufwärts der mindestens einen Weiche in unmittelbarer Nähe der Weiche angebracht sein, beispielsweise als berührungslos arbeitender optischer Dickensensor. Die Einrichtung zur Bestimmung der Produktdicke dient auch der Bestimmung der tatsächlichen Produktdicke eines jeweiligen Produktes und damit der Vollständigkeitskontrolle des Produktes.
Die Weiche der Ausschleuseinrichtung ist in vorteilhafter Weise schaltbar, so dass ein Produkt entweder geradlinig weiter durch den Transportkanal transportiert werden oder ausgeschleust werden kann, z.B. dann wenn das Produkt unvollständig ist. Die Breite der Kanäle der Weiche ist ebenso wie die Breite des Transportkanals an die Produktdicke anpassbar.A device according to the invention for transporting products, such as sheet stacks, collected signatures, book blocks or the like, has a transport channel for the stationary transport of the products. The width of the transport channel is adaptable to the product thickness. For this purpose, the device has a device for determining the product thickness. Advantageously, the width of the transport channel is automatically adapted to the product thickness. The device for transporting further has a discharge device, which has at least one channel-like executed point with a points drive and a control device for controlling the points drive. The switch is designed so that these directly to the transport channel followed. The device for determining the product thickness can also be mounted within the discharge device in the transport direction upstream of the at least one switch in the immediate vicinity of the switch, for example as a non-contact optical thickness sensor. The device for determining the product thickness also serves to determine the actual product thickness of a respective product and thus the completeness check of the product.
The switch of the discharge device is switchable in an advantageous manner, so that a product can either be transported further straight through the transport channel or can be discharged, for example when the product is incomplete. The width of the channels of the switch, as well as the width of the transport channel, can be adapted to the product thickness.
Eine derartige Ausschleuseinrichtung erlaubt in vorteilhafter Weise ein geordnetes Ausschleusen und damit die Weiterverarbeitung von qualitätsgeprüften Vorprodukten. Je nach Maschinenaufbau und zur Verfügung stehendem Platz kann die Ausschleuseinrichtung die Produkte sowohl rechts als auch links vom Transportkanal ausschleusen.Such a discharge device advantageously allows an orderly discharge and thus the further processing of quality-tested precursors. Depending on the machine structure and available space, the rejection device can eject the products both to the right and to the left of the transport channel.
In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist die Steuereinrichtung der Ausschleuseinrichtung über Datenleitungen mit der Einrichtung zur Bestimmung der Produktdicke, einer Maschinensteuerung und dem Weichenantrieb verbunden. Die Maschinensteuerung steuert beispielsweise die Transportgeschwindigkeit und die Übergabe der Produkte an die Vorrichtung zum Transportieren von einer vorangehenden Maschine und die Übergabe der Produkte von der Vorrichtung zum Transportieren an eine nachfolgende Maschine. In der Maschinensteuerung können auch die Sollwerte für die Produktdicke hinterlegt sein. Alternativ wird die Produktdicke durch die Einrichtung zur Bestimmung der Produktdicke bestimmt und an die Maschinensteuerung gemeldet. Damit liegen Vorgabewerte für die Breite des Transportkanals vor. Diese Werte können für die Kanalbreiteneinstellung der Weiche übernommen werden. Die Steuereinrichtung steuert die Schaltung der Weiche und die Breitenanpassung der Kanäle der Weiche. Die Steuereinrichtung veranlasst ein schnelles Schalten der Weiche und erlaubt damit ein Aussortieren einzelner Produkte. Ein möglicher Ablauf ist dabei wie folgt: Ein Produkt wird durch den Transportkanal der Vorrichtung zum Transportieren transportiert und passiert dabei die Einrichtung zur Bestimmung der Produktdicke. Dabei wird die tatsächliche Dicke des Produktes bestimmt und mit der in der Maschinensteuerung hinterlegten Solldicke verglichen. Stimmen beide Dicken überein, so wird das Produkt geradlinig weiter durch den Transportkanal transportiert. Stimmen die Dicken jedoch nicht überein, so wird die Weiche geschaltet und das Produkt ausgeschleust.In an advantageous development of the invention, the control device of the discharge device is connected via data lines to the device for determining the product thickness, a machine control and the points drive. The machine control, for example, controls the transport speed and the transfer of the products to the device for transporting from a preceding machine and the transfer of the products from the device for transporting to a subsequent machine. The setpoint values for the product thickness can also be stored in the machine control. Alternatively, the product thickness is determined by the device for determining the product thickness and reported to the machine control. This gives default values for the width of the transport channel. These values can be adopted for the channel width adjustment of the turnout. The controller controls the switching of the switch and the width adjustment of the channels of the switch. The control device causes a rapid switching of the switch and thus allows a sorting of individual products. One possible procedure is as follows: One product is transported through the transport channel of the device for transporting and passes through the device for determining the product thickness. The actual thickness of the product is determined and compared with the specified thickness stored in the machine control. If both thicknesses match, the product is transported in a straight line through the transport channel. However, if the thicknesses do not match, the switch is switched and the product is discharged.
In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung bewirkt der Weichenantrieb die Schaltung der Weiche und die Breitenanpassung der Kanäle der Weiche an die Produktdicke. Der Weichenantrieb kann dabei beispielsweise aus einem schnell schaltenden Elektromotor zum Schalten der Weiche und einem weiteren Elektromotor zur Breitenanpassung der Weichenkanäle bestehen. In einer alternativen Ausführungsform geschieht die Breitenanpassung der Kanäle der Weiche zusammen mit der Breitenanpassung der Transportkanäle.In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the points drive causes the circuit of the switch and the width adjustment of the channels of the switch to the product thickness. The points drive can consist for example of a fast-switching electric motor for switching the switch and a further electric motor for width adjustment of the switch channels. In an alternative embodiment, the width adjustment of the channels of the switch takes place together with the width adjustment of the transport channels.
In einer alternativen vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Vorrichtung zum Transportieren besitzt die Ausschleuseinrichtung mindestens zwei hintereinander angeordnete Weichen. Die erste Weiche dient beispielsweise dem Ausschleusen fehlerhafter Produkte aus dem Haupttransportkanal und eine zweite Weiche zum Zuführen der fehlerfreien Produkte in eine Stapelauslage. In einer weiteren alternativen Ausführungsform besitzt die Ausschleuseinrichtung mindestens eine Dreiwegeweiche. An je einen Ausgang der Dreiwegeweiche kann sich dann beispielsweise ein Klebebinder, eine Makulaturauslage und eine Stapelauslage anschließen. In einer weiteren besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Vorrichtung zum Transportieren schließt sich an jeden Ausgang der Weiche je ein Transportkanal an. Der Transportkanal kann dann beispielsweise zu einem Klebebinder, einer Makulaturauslage oder einer Stapelauslage führen.In an alternative advantageous embodiment of the device for transporting the discharge device has at least two switches arranged one behind the other. The first switch is used, for example, the removal of defective products from the main transport channel and a second switch for feeding the error-free products in a stack display. In a further alternative embodiment, the discharge device has at least one three-way switch. An output of the three-way switch can then be followed by, for example, an adhesive binder, a waste paper delivery and a stack delivery. In a further particularly advantageous embodiment of the device for transporting, a transport channel is connected to each outlet of the switch. The transport channel can then lead, for example, to an adhesive binder, a waste paper delivery or a stack delivery.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform besitzt die Vorrichtung zum Transportieren umlaufende Mitnehmer, welche in dem Transportkanal umlaufen und die Produkte durch den Kanal bewegen. Für weitere Transportkanäle, welche sich an die Weichen anschließen, besitzt die Vorrichtung ebenfalls Mittel zum Transport der Produkte.In a further advantageous embodiment, the device for transporting has rotating drivers which circulate in the transport channel and move the products through the channel. For further transport channels, which join the switches, the device also has means for transporting the products.
Diese können ebenfalls als umlaufende Mitnehmer ausgestaltet sein. Alternativ können hierbei auch Förderbänder eingesetzt werden.These can also be configured as a rotating driver. Alternatively, conveyor belts can also be used here.
In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungs form der Vorrichtung zum Transportieren schließt sich an die mindestens eine Weiche der Ausschleuseinrichtung eine Produktauslage an. Die Produktauslage kann dabei als Stapelauslage ausgeführt sein, beispielsweise als sogenannte Criss-Cross-Auslage. Werden die Produkte beispielsweise von einer Zusammentragmaschine kommend über die Vorrichtung zum Transportieren der Produkte an einen Klebebinder weitergegeben, so können die Produkte in der Stapelauslage ausgelegt werden. Dies ist besonders dann vorteilhaft, wenn die Zusammentragmaschine mit einer höheren Geschwindigkeit als der Klebebinder betrieben wird. Wird die Zusammentragmaschine beispielsweise mit der doppelten Geschwindigkeit des Klebebinders betrieben, so kann in der Stapelauslage jedes zweite zusammengetragene Produkt ausgelegt werden. Die Stapelauslage kann weiterhin vorteilhaft eingesetzt werden, wenn der Klebebinder aufgrund eines Fehlers abgeschaltet werden muss. Die Zusammentragmaschine kann dann weiterbetrieben werden und die Produkte können in der Stapelauslage ausgelegt werden. Die Auslage kann alternativ auch als Makulaturauslage ausgeführt sein. Dabei handelt es sich im einfachsten Fall um einen Container, welcher die fehlerhaften Produkte aufnimmt.In a particularly preferred embodiment of the device for transporting is followed by a product delivery to the at least one turnout of the discharge device. The product display can be designed as a stack display, for example as a so-called Criss-Cross delivery. If, for example, the products are passed on from a collating machine via the device for transporting the products to an adhesive binder, the products can be laid out in the stack delivery. This is particularly advantageous when the gathering machine is operated at a higher speed than the perfect binder. If the gathering machine is operated, for example, at twice the speed of the perfect binder, then every second product that has been collected can be designed in the stack delivery. The stack delivery can also be advantageously used when the perfect binder has to be shut down due to an error. The gathering machine can then continue to operate and the products can be laid out in the stack display. The display can alternatively be designed as waste paper delivery. In the simplest case, this is a container which picks up the defective products.
