Definitions
- the invention is in the field of promotion of flat, bendable objects, in particular of printed products, and relates to a device according to the preamble of the independent claim.
- the device is used for separating individual flat, bendable objects from the underside of a stack of such objects and for transporting away the objects, in particular for separating individual printed products from the underside of a printed product stack and for transporting away the printed products.
- the device has for the separation of individual printed products from the underside of the printed product stack arranged below the stack, around a substantially horizontal axis rotating carrier wheel on the periphery of which pairs of a sucker and a sucker associated gripper are arranged. Furthermore, the device has a support means which on the one hand supports the stack from below and on the other hand ' has at least one removal opening, by which the lowest printed product detected by a sucker and can be bent to separate from the stack against the gripper associated with the sucker.
- the carrier wheel is arranged and driven to move the nipple and gripper parallel to an edge pair of the stacked printed products and approximately midway therebetween under the stack.
- the suckers are pivoted controlled during the rotation of the carrier wheel and connected to a suction line and decoupled from it.
- the grippers are controlled closed during the rotation and reopened.
- the support means on which the stack is supported a roll carpet having a plurality of parallel to each other and horizontally oriented, freely rotatably mounted rollers which rectified with the suckers and grippers but on a substantially straight and horizontal path under the Stack to be moved through.
- the movements of the rollers and the nipple are coordinated so that the nipple can detect the lowest printed product of the stack between two successive roles and pull out the edge region and the subsequent of these two roles moves between the detected by the nipple and the flying thereon printed product ,
- the roll carpet thus forms a sequence of removal openings aligned parallel to the rolls and the printed product edges detected by the suckers and moving one after the other under the pile.
- rollers forming the roller carpet under the stack consist of two aligned roller parts, which are spaced from each other. This will prevent the pads from interfering with the rollers.
- a circumferential chain is provided on each side of the carrier wheel, wherein the roller parts are coupled to this chain and rotate around each other with the chain and at constant distances.
- the orbit of the chains extends around a respective coaxial with the carrier wheel arranged deflecting wheel and another deflection wheel with a parallel axis, which is arranged such that an upper part of the orbits between the guide wheels is approximately horizontal. Over this area of the orbit of the rollers, the stack is arranged.
- the device according to EP1226083 thus, it has a revolving roller carpet with removal openings, wherein the stack is arranged on the outside of this roller carpet.
- the printed products are drawn through one of the removal openings on the inside of the revolving roller carpet, from where they must return to the outside for further promotion.
- the roller parts are pivoted in the corresponding region of their orbit in a substantially vertical position.
- the printed products are placed on a conveyor belt and released from the grippers, the conveyor belt is connected substantially tangentially to the circular motion of the gripper.
- a device which serves the same purpose.
- the rollers of the roller carpet are attached to a roller wheel, which rotates, for example, on the same axis as the carrier wheel.
- the printed products are not pulled completely into the interior of the roll carpet, but only partially.
- the printed products are conveyed in this position a little bit in sync with the roll carpet with, and then placed on a transport path. So it's not like the EP1226083 - Required to open the roll carpet in a certain area to transport the printed products from inside the roll carpet.
- rollers are articulated by means of levers on the roller wheel, such that the levers are pivotable parallel to the plane of rotation of the roller wheel.
- a clear orbit of the rollers and a clear and consistent movement of the rollers along this orbit are defined by a roller guide which controls the movement of the rollers along the orbit.
- the EP-1254855 also shows a roller carpet in which the rollers are attached to a roller wheel.
- the rollers In order to open the roll carpet in a certain area, the rollers are tilted away, about a tilt axis, which is substantially radial or secant to the roller wheel.
- a link control is provided for pivoting the rollers.
- a rolling on a backdrop wheel moves via a lever mechanism with multiple levers, the rollers. Due to the unfavorable leverage due to the relatively long rollers and located near the pivot point of the rollers lever mechanism, the forces occurring at the gate and the lever mechanism are high, and conversely, the resulting movement of the rollers is not quite precisely defined.
- WO 2007/051324 A1 shows a device for separating objects from the bottom of a stack according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a device which serves the same purpose as the devices described above, but which is constructed structurally simple and causes a flowing, precise running movement of the rollers.
- the rollers are each coupled by a coupling to at least one roller wheel, and by this coupling, the longitudinal axes of the rollers are each pivotable with respect to the roller wheel.
- the rollers are pivoted by a control in a release area of the orbit and thereby generate an opening of the roller carpet, through which opening the Wegtransportstoff is guided.
- the detachment and transport means thus drag the objects through the roller carpet in the (unopened) support area into an interior area of the roller carpet.
- the roll carpet is opened in a release area, in which the objects leave the interior again, for transporting away the objects.
- rollers are each on a roller wheel - and not on a belt or on a chain - are arranged, a very simple construction of the roller carpet is given.
- the pivoting of the rollers and thus the opening of the roller carpet in the release area is done by a preferably fixed Steuerkufe, for example by the rollers roll on the Steuerkufe.
- the rollers are preferably mounted rotatably about its longitudinal axis in a roller carrier.
- a rigid Steuerkufe be used without further moving controls.
- the Steuerkufe is located in the interior of the orbit and pushes the rollers respectively the roll carpet from the inside up.
- rollers may be extended rearwardly beyond the roller carriers so that the trailing ends of the rollers are urged against each other by a control cam or link which is located outside the roller carpet, and thus their forward ends move apart
- a control cam or link which is located outside the roller carpet, and thus their forward ends move apart
- Other mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic or electrical actuating means for pivoting the rollers are also usable. However, these are not according to the invention.
- the roller carriers are preferably mounted pivotably about a pivot axis on the roller wheel.
- the longitudinal axes of the rollers preferably extend substantially perpendicular to the plane or rotational plane of the respective roller wheel.
- This vertical position is preferably defined by a mechanical stop, which limits the pivoting movement in a corresponding stop position.
- the Steuerkufe on the one hand and the stop on the other hand results in a simple, consisting of a few parts motion control with low leverage and thus a precise guidance of the role of movement.
- the pretensioning device has an elastic traction cable which connects roller carriers of the individual rollers of a roller wheel with one another and thus pulls all these roller carriers and thus also their rollers in the direction of the stop position of the pivoting movement.
- the biasing device comprises a set of spring elements, each roller having its own spring element which effects a force between roller and roller wheel, this force pulling the roller in the direction of the stop.
- the rollers are freely rotatable and at least in a portion of the orbit, preferably at least in the support area, by rolling on a rolling body in a rotation displaceable, said rotation corresponds to a rolling movement of the rollers on the lowermost article of the stack.
- the rotation of the rollers is caused by the rolling body, and not by the lowest object, and so this object is spared.
- the rolling body is an externally stretched around a sector of the orbit rope. But it can also be a fixed rail or runner, against which the rollers are guided.
- the inventive device preferably has two opposing roller wheels with each other facing, preferably mutually symmetrical, roller sets.
- the axes of the two roller wheels are preferably coaxial, but may also be inclined, for example, towards the interior of the device. In certain applications, however, only a single roller wheel can be appropriate.
- the at least one roller wheel and the carrier wheel of the suction and gripper parallel axes of rotation, whereby a simple construction is possible.
- the carrier wheel and the at least one roller wheel are driven in rotation at the same angular speeds, preferably coupled together by the same drive and by a transmission.
- FIG. 1 shows a side view of an inventive device, looking at a plane of a roller wheel 7, and FIG. 2 a corresponding front view with a view along the plane of the roller wheels 7.
- a roller wheel 7 On a roller wheel 7, a plurality of rollers 9, in each case by means of a coupling 8, pivotally mounted.
- the entirety of the rollers 9 forms a roller carpet circulating along an orbit 11.
- longitudinal axes of the rollers 9 extend perpendicular to the plane of the roller wheel 7, ie also perpendicular to the plane of the drawing.
- This first region comprises at least one support region 12, in which flat objects 2, piled up in a stacking space 1, rest on the rollers 9.
- the rollers 9 roll on a rolling body 20.
- the rolling body 20 is a rope stretched around a part of the orbit.
- the cable 20 is held and tensioned, for example, by means of holding bodies 25 which are adjustably arranged in slots 26 of a housing wall 27.
- rollers 9 are pivoted by a control cam 15 from the direction normal to the plane of the drawing.
- a traction means here a pull rope 18, pulls the rollers 9 back against a stop in this direction.

- a variety of such (not shown here) teat 4 and gripper 5 runs on a in the FIG. 1 dashed line drawn in the counterclockwise direction. In a gap 21 between the two roller wheels 7 and their rollers 9, the suckers 4 can be guided against the flat objects 2.
- a sucker 4 releases one of the flat objects 2 or a printed product, and grips a gripper 5 of this printed product 2 and draws it between the rollers 9 into the interior of the orbit 11. Subsequently, the gripper 5 pulls the printed product 2 on a support belt or a support rail 22 along a Wegtransportstoff 6, for example a conveyor belt, and releases it. In the release area 13, the transporting means 6 leads the printed product 2 out of the circulation path 11 through the roller carpet open there.

- the traction cable is suspended, for example, in each case on a hook 24 of the roller carrier 17. It can slide in the hook 24 relative to the roller carrier 17 or be fixed.
- the pull cable 18 thereby pulls the roller carriers 17 and thus the rollers 9 inwards, in the direction of the position in which the longitudinal axes 10 extend perpendicular to the plane of the roller wheel 7. This position is controlled by a stop 16 ( FIG. 4 ) defined at the coupling 8, to which the roller carrier 17 is present in each case.
- rollers 9 are pressed by the control skid 15 against the spring force of the pull cable 18 to the outside and pivoted ( FIGS. 4 and 5 ).

Die Erfindung stellt sich aus diesem Grunde die Aufgabe, eine Vorrichtung zu schaffen, die demselben Zwecke dient, wie die eingangs beschriebenen Vorrichtungen, die aber konstruktiv einfacher aufgebaut ist und einen fliessenden, präzise ablaufende Bewegung der Rollen bewirkt.The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a device which serves the same purpose as the devices described above, but which is constructed structurally simple and causes a flowing, precise running movement of the rollers.
Diese Aufgabe löst eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruches 1.This object is achieved by a device having the features of patent claim 1.
Die Vorrichtung zum Abtrennen von einzelnen flachen, biegbaren Gegenständen von der Unterseite eines Stapels solcher Gegenstände und zum Wegtransport der abgetrennten Gegenstände weist also
- ■ einen Stapelraum mit einem den Stapel von unten stützenden Stützmittel,
- ■ umlaufende Ablöse- und Transportiermittel zum Abtrennen der Gegenstände von der Unterseite des Stapels und
- ■ ein Wegtransportmittel zum Wegtransportieren der abgetrennten Gegenstände
- A stacking space with a support means supporting the stack from below,
- ■ Circular detachment and transport means for separating the articles from the bottom of the stack and
- ■ a Wegtransportmittel for Wegtransportieren the separated objects
Die Rollen sind jeweils durch eine Ankopplung an mindestens einem Rollenrad angekoppelt, und durch diese Ankopplung sind die Längsachsen der Rollen jeweils bezüglich des Rollenrades verschwenkbar. Die Rollen werden durch ein Steuerelement in einem Freigabebereich der Umlaufbahn verschwenkt und erzeugen dadurch eine Öffnung des Rollentepichs, durch welche Öffnung das Wegtransportmittel geführt ist.The rollers are each coupled by a coupling to at least one roller wheel, and by this coupling, the longitudinal axes of the rollers are each pivotable with respect to the roller wheel. The rollers are pivoted by a control in a release area of the orbit and thereby generate an opening of the roller carpet, through which opening the Wegtransportmittel is guided.
Die Ablöse- und Transportiermittel ziehen also die Gegenstände durch den Rollenteppich im (ungeöffneten) Stützbereich in einen Innenbereich des Rollenteppichs. Der Rollenteppich wird in einem Freigabebereich, in welchem die Gegenstände den Innenbereich wieder verlassen, zum Wegtransportieren der Gegenstände geöffnet.The detachment and transport means thus drag the objects through the roller carpet in the (unopened) support area into an interior area of the roller carpet. The roll carpet is opened in a release area, in which the objects leave the interior again, for transporting away the objects.
Indem die Rollen jeweils an einem Rollenrad - und nicht an einem Band oder an einer Kette - angeordnet sind, ist eine sehr einfache Konstruktion des Rollenteppichs gegeben.By the rollers are each on a roller wheel - and not on a belt or on a chain - are arranged, a very simple construction of the roller carpet is given.
Erfindungsgemäß geschieht das Verschwenken der Rollen und damit die Öffnung des Rollenteppichs im Freigabebereich durch eine vorzugsweise feststehende Steuerkufe, beispielsweise indem die Rollen an der Steuerkufe abrollen. Dabei wird ausgenutzt, dass die Rollen vorzugsweise um ihre Längsachse drehbar in einem Rollenträger gelagert sind. So kann eine starre Steuerkufe ohne weitere bewegliche Steuerelemente verwendet werden. Die Steuerkufe ist im Innern der Umlaufbahn angeordnet und drückt die Rollen respektive den Rollenteppich von innen her auf. Es können alternativ aber auch die Rollen über die Rollenträger hinaus nach hinten verlängert werden, so dass die hinteren Enden der Rollen durch eine Steuerkufe oder Kulisse, welche ausserhalb des Rollenteppichs angeordnet ist, gegeneinander gedrückt werden, und sich so ihre vorderen Enden auseinander bewegen eine solche Alternative gehört jedoch nicht zum Schutzbereich der beanspruchten Erfindung. Es sind auch andere mechanische, pneumatische, hydraulische oder elektrische Betätigungsmittel zum Schwenken der Rollen verwendbar. Diese sind jedoch nicht erfindungsgemäß.According to the invention, the pivoting of the rollers and thus the opening of the roller carpet in the release area is done by a preferably fixed Steuerkufe, for example by the rollers roll on the Steuerkufe. It is exploited that the rollers are preferably mounted rotatably about its longitudinal axis in a roller carrier. Thus, a rigid Steuerkufe be used without further moving controls. The Steuerkufe is located in the interior of the orbit and pushes the rollers respectively the roll carpet from the inside up. Alternatively, however, the rollers may be extended rearwardly beyond the roller carriers so that the trailing ends of the rollers are urged against each other by a control cam or link which is located outside the roller carpet, and thus their forward ends move apart However, alternative does not belong to the scope of the claimed invention. Other mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic or electrical actuating means for pivoting the rollers are also usable. However, these are not according to the invention.
Die Rollenträger sind vorzugsweise um eine Schwenkachse schwenkbar am Rollenrad gelagert. Im Stützbereich verlaufen die Längsachsen der Rollen vorzugsweise im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Ebene respektive Dreh-Ebene des jeweiligen Rollenrades. Diese senkrechte Stellung ist vorzugsweise durch einen mechanischen Anschlag definiert, welcher die Schwenkbewegung in einer entsprechenden Anschlagposition begrenzt. Grundsätzlich ist es aber auch möglich, die Rollenräder zu neigen und den Anschlag so auszubilden, dass die Rollen im Bereich des Stapels, wo sie als Stütze dienen, parallel zur Unterseite des Stapels verlaufen (in der Regel horizontal).The roller carriers are preferably mounted pivotably about a pivot axis on the roller wheel. In the support region, the longitudinal axes of the rollers preferably extend substantially perpendicular to the plane or rotational plane of the respective roller wheel. This vertical position is preferably defined by a mechanical stop, which limits the pivoting movement in a corresponding stop position. In principle, it is also possible tilt the roller wheels and make the stop so that the rollers in the area of the stack, where they serve as a support, are parallel to the bottom of the stack (usually horizontal).
Durch die Steuerkufe einerseits und den Anschlag andererseits ergibt sich eine einfache, aus wenigen Teilen bestehende Bewegungssteuerung mit günstigen Hebelverhältnissen und dadurch einer präzisen Führung der Rollenbewegung.The Steuerkufe on the one hand and the stop on the other hand results in a simple, consisting of a few parts motion control with low leverage and thus a precise guidance of the role of movement.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung liegt eine Vorspannvornchtung vor, welche die Rollenträger und damit auch deren Rollen jeweils in Richtung der Anschlagposition der Schwenkbewegung zieht. In einer besonders einfachen, bevorzugten Ausführungsform weist die Vorspannvorrichtung ein elastisches Zugseil auf, welches Rollenträger der einzelnen Rollen eines Rollenrades miteinander verbindet und so alle diese Rollenträger und damit auch deren Rollen in Richtung der Anschlagposition der Schwenkbewegung zieht. In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform weist die Vorspannvorrichtung einen Satz von Federelementen auf, wobei jeder Rolle ein eigenes Federelement zugeordnet ist, welche eine Kraft zwischen Rolle und Rollenrad bewirkt, wobei diese Kraft die Rolle in Richtung des Anschlags zieht.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, there is a Vorspannvornchtung, which pulls the roller carriers and thus their roles in each case in the direction of the stop position of the pivoting movement. In a particularly simple, preferred embodiment, the pretensioning device has an elastic traction cable which connects roller carriers of the individual rollers of a roller wheel with one another and thus pulls all these roller carriers and thus also their rollers in the direction of the stop position of the pivoting movement. In another preferred embodiment, the biasing device comprises a set of spring elements, each roller having its own spring element which effects a force between roller and roller wheel, this force pulling the roller in the direction of the stop.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind die Rollen frei drehbar und sind zumindest in einem Abschnitt der Umlaufbahn, vorzugsweise zumindest im Stützbereich, durch Abrollen an einem Abrollkörper in eine Drehung versetzbar, wobei diese Drehung einer Abrollbewegung der Rollen am untersten Gegenstand des Stapels entspricht. Damit wird die Drehung der Rollen durch den Abrollkörper, und nicht durch den untersten Gegenstand bewirkt, und wird so dieser Gegenstand geschont.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the rollers are freely rotatable and at least in a portion of the orbit, preferably at least in the support area, by rolling on a rolling body in a rotation displaceable, said rotation corresponds to a rolling movement of the rollers on the lowermost article of the stack. Thus, the rotation of the rollers is caused by the rolling body, and not by the lowest object, and so this object is spared.
Vorzugsweise ist der Abrollkörper ein von aussen her um einen Sektor der Umlaufbahn gespanntes Seil. Er kann aber auch eine feststehende Schiene oder Kufe sein, gegen welche die Rollen geführt werden.Preferably, the rolling body is an externally stretched around a sector of the orbit rope. But it can also be a fixed rail or runner, against which the rollers are guided.
Die erfindungsgemässe Vorrichtung weist vorzugsweise zwei einander gegenüberliegende Rollenräder mit einander zugewandten, vorzugsweise zueinander symmetrischen, Rollensätzen auf. Die Achsen der beiden Rollenräder sind vorzugsweise koaxial, können aber auch beispielsweise gegen das Innere der Vorrichtung hin geneigt sein. In bestimmten Anwendungen kann aber auch nur ein einzelnes Rollenrad zweckmässig sein.The inventive device preferably has two opposing roller wheels with each other facing, preferably mutually symmetrical, roller sets. The axes of the two roller wheels are preferably coaxial, but may also be inclined, for example, towards the interior of the device. In certain applications, however, only a single roller wheel can be appropriate.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung weisen das mindestens eine Rollenrad und das Trägerrad der Sauger und Greifer parallele Drehachsen auf, wodurch eine einfache Konstruktion möglich ist. Ferner sind vorzugsweise das Trägerrad und das mindestens eine Rollenrad mit gleichen Winkelgeschwindigkeiten rotierend angetrieben, vorzugsweise durch denselben Antrieb und durch ein Getriebe miteinander gekoppelt.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the at least one roller wheel and the carrier wheel of the suction and gripper parallel axes of rotation, whereby a simple construction is possible. Further, preferably, the carrier wheel and the at least one roller wheel are driven in rotation at the same angular speeds, preferably coupled together by the same drive and by a transmission.
Weitere bevorzugte Ausführungsformen gehen aus den abhängigen Patentansprüchen hervor.Further preferred embodiments emerge from the dependent claims.
