Sammelvorrichtungen der eingangs genannten Art werden in industriellen Buchbindereien zum Sammeln von Druckbogen zu losen Druckbogenstapeln (Buchblocks) eingesetzt. Die verschiedenen Druckbogen werden dabei in einer vorgegebenen Reihenfolge zusammengetragen und anschliessend in eine Weiterverarbeitungsmaschine, beispielsweise einen Klebebinder überführt, wo sie zu rohen Büchern, Katalogen, Broschüren oder dergleichen Druckprodukten gebunden werden. Sammelvorrichtungen nach dem Stand der Technik weisen dazu eine Fördervorrichtung auf, die durch an einem umlaufenden Zugmittel in gleichmässigen Abständen befestigte Förderelemente gebildet ist und entlang derer Zuführvorrichtungen angeordnet sind, die pro Maschinentakt, in der Regel, je einen Druckbogen an die Förderelemente der Fördervorrichtung überführen. Die Förderelemente werden im Wesentlichen gebildet durch eine Auflage, auf die die Druckbogen mit ihren flächigen Seiten abgelegt resp. auf denen sie gestapelt werden und einem senkrecht zur Auflage stehenden Anschlag, an dem sie ausgerichtet werden. In jeder Zuführvorrichtung ist eine definierte Sorte Druckbogen bevorratet, von denen je einer an die vorbeilaufenden Förderelemente abgegeben wird, sodass am Ende der Fördervorrichtung die Förderelemente, aus den einzelnen Druckbogen gebildete, lose Buchblöcke tragen.Collection devices of the type mentioned are used in industrial bookbinding for collecting printed sheets to loose printed sheet stacks (book block). The various printed sheets are collected in a predetermined order and then transferred to a finishing machine, such as an adhesive binder, where they be bound to raw books, catalogs, brochures or similar printed products. Prior art collecting devices have for this purpose a conveying device which is formed by conveying elements fastened at equal intervals on a rotating traction means and along which feeding devices are arranged, which in each case transfer one printing sheet to the conveying elements of the conveying device per machine cycle, as a rule. The conveying elements are essentially formed by a support on which the printed sheets are stored with their flat sides resp. on which they are stacked and a perpendicular to the support stop, where they are aligned. In each feeder a defined type of printed sheet is stored, one of which is delivered to the passing conveyor elements, so that at the end of the conveyor the conveying elements, formed from the individual sheets form loose book blocks.
Die vorveröffentlichte
Versuche mit dieser Einrichtung haben jedoch gezeigt, dass sich eine Neigungslage der Auflagefläche der Förderelemente als unzureichend erweist, wenn beim Sammeln der Druckbogen sich diese insbesondere durch das Gewicht erheblich unterscheiden. Wird der Auflagefläche beispielsweise ein leichter Druckbogen zugeführt, auf den anschliessend ein relativ schwerer Druckbogen aufgeschoben wird, dann kommt es vor, dass der aufgeschobene Druckbogen aufgrund eines Reibungsschlusses den darunterliegenden Druckbogen im vorderen Bereich entlang des Anschlages von der Auflagefläche weg verschiebt.
Dieser Umstand kann ebenfalls durch eine Ausführung nach der
Experiments with this device, however, have shown that an inclination position of the bearing surface of the conveying elements proves to be inadequate when they differ significantly in collecting the sheet, especially by the weight. If, for example, a light printed sheet is fed to the bearing surface, onto which a relatively heavy printed sheet is then pushed, then it happens that the pushed-on printed sheet, due to a frictional engagement, shifts the underlying sheet away from the bearing surface in the front region along the stop.
This circumstance can also be explained by an execution according to
