Description

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Weiche für Vorrichtungen zur Bearbeitung von Blattgut, insbesondere Banknoten und Schecks.The invention relates to a switch for devices for processing sheet material, in particular banknotes and checks.

Derartige Weichen dienen dazu, das Blattgut in einer Vorrichtung zur Bearbeitung von Blattgut während des Transportes in verschiedene Richtungen zu leiten. Bei den Vorrichtungen zur Bearbeitung von Blattgut kann es sich beispielsweise um Bankautomaten, Sortier- und Zählvorrichtungen, Geldwechselautomaten, Fahrkartenautomaten, Eintrittskartenautomaten oder Parkscheinautomaten handeln. Derartige Vorrichtungen und Automaten sind in der Lage, das Blattgut in unterschiedliche Transportrichtungen zu lenken, um es beispielsweise einer Zwischenspeicherung zuzuführen und gegebenenfalls an einen Kunden zurückzugeben.Such switches serve to guide the sheet material in a device for processing sheet material during transport in different directions. The devices for processing sheet material may, for example, be bank machines, sorting and counting devices, automatic change machines, ticket machines, ticket machines or parking ticket machines. Such devices and machines are capable of directing the sheet material in different directions of transport, for example, to caching and optionally return to a customer.

Aus dem Stand der Technik der DE 39 31 571 A1 ist eine Zwei-Wege-Weiche bekannt, welche mit einem um eine Drehachse schwenkbar gelagerten Weichenkörper ausgestattet ist. Der Weichenkörper kann zwei Stellungen einnehmen. Dadurch wird erreicht, dass Banknoten beim Transport zu einer Speicherrolle und beim Aufwickeln auf die Speicherrolle einen anderen Weg zurücklegen als beim Abwickeln von der Speicherrolle. Hin- und Rückweg sind dabei unterschiedlich.From the prior art of DE 39 31 571 A1 is a two-way switch known, which is equipped with a pivotally mounted about a rotation axis switch body. The switch body can assume two positions. It is thereby achieved that bank notes travel differently when being transported to a storage roll and when being wound up on the storage roll than during unwinding from the storage roll. Round trip are different.

Als nachteilig erweist sich, dass derartige Weichen lediglich zwei unterschiedliche Wege des Blattgutes ermöglichen. Das Abzweigen einzelner blattartiger Gegenstände aus einer Vielzahl von zugeführten blattartigen Gegenständen sowie das Aufteilen des zugeführten Blattgutes in zwei unterschiedliche Transportrichtungen kann mit den bekannten Weichen nicht erreicht werden.A disadvantage is that such switches only allow two different paths of the sheet material. The branching of individual sheet-like objects from a plurality of supplied sheet-like objects and the splitting of the supplied sheet material in two different transport directions can not be achieved with the known switches.

Die DE 195 38 066 A1 beschreibt eine Blattweiche für zwei Verteilrichtungen mit einem dreieckig ausgeführten Blattführungskörper der linear zwischen zwei Endstellungen verschoben werden kann und somit jeweils eine Verteilrichtung freigibt.The DE 195 38 066 A1 describes a blade switch for two distribution directions with a triangular running blade guide body can be moved linearly between two end positions and thus each releases a distribution direction.

Als nachteilig erweist sich, dass die Weichen der DE 39 31 571 A1 und der DE 195 38 066 A1 lediglich zwei unterschiedliche Wege des Blattgutes ermöglichen. Das Abzweigen einzelner blattartiger Gegenstände aus einer Vielzahl von zugeführten blattartigen Gegenständen sowie das Aufteilen des zugeführten Blattgutes in zwei unterschiedliche Transportrichtungen kann mit den bekannten Weichen nicht erreicht werden. Nachteilig an der Dreiwegeweiche der DE 196 48 181 A1 sind die verschiedenen zu steuernden Leitführungen, die diese Dreiwegeweiche störanfällig machen.As disadvantage proves that the switches of the DE 39 31 571 A1 and the DE 195 38 066 A1 only allow two different ways of the sheet material. The branching of individual sheet-like objects from a plurality of supplied sheet-like objects and the splitting of the supplied sheet material in two different transport directions can not be achieved with the known switches. A disadvantage of the three-way switch of the DE 196 48 181 A1 are the various guides to be steered that make these three-way switches susceptible to interference.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Weiche für Vorrichtungen zur Bearbeitung von Blattgut zur Verfügung zu stellen, die den Transport von Blattgut entlang von mehr als zwei verschiedenen Wegen ermöglicht.The present invention has for its object to provide a switch for devices for processing sheet material available, the Transport of sheet material along more than two different paths.

Die erfindungsgemäße Weiche mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 zeichnet sich gegenüber den bekannten Weichen dadurch aus, dass der Weichenkörpers mit mehreren dreieckigen flachen Weichenflügeln ausgestattet ist, deren jeweilige Schmalseiten jeweils eine Längsseite und zwei Umlenkseiten bilden, und dass ein Weichenantrieb vorgesehen ist, der den Weichenkörper in mindestens zwei verschiedene Richtungen in eine Bewegung versetzt, wobei mindestens eine der beiden Bewegungen eine lineare Translationsbewegung ist. Bei der zweiten Bewegung kann es sich ebenfalls um eine Translationsbewegung oder eine Rotationsbewegung handeln. Die Bewegung des Weichenkörpers bei einer Positionsänderung setzt sich damit zusammen aus zwei Translationsbewegungen in unterschiedliche Richtungen oder einer Translationsbewegung und einer Rotationsbewegung. Besonders bevorzugt ist jedoch die Bewegung, welche sich aus zwei Translationsbewegungen zusammensetzt.The switch according to the invention with the features of claim 1 is distinguished from the known switches in that the switch body is equipped with a plurality of triangular flat switch wings whose respective narrow sides each form a longitudinal side and two deflecting sides, and that a switch mechanism is provided which the switch body in at least two different directions in a movement, wherein at least one of the two movements is a linear translational movement.

However, particularly preferred is the movement, which is composed of two translational movements.

Die Längsseite und die beiden Umlenkseiten der Weichenflügel sind beim Transport je nach Weichenstellung dem Blattgut zugewandt sind. Jede dieser Seiten dient dem Leiten und Lenken des Blattgutes. Der Weichenantrieb ermöglicht es, dass der Weichenkörper relativ zu seiner Umgebung mindestens drei unterschiedliche Stellungen einnehmen kann, um das Blattgut entlang mindestens drei unterschiedlicher Wege zu führen.The longitudinal side and the two deflection sides of the switch wings are facing the sheet material during transport depending on the switch position. Each of these pages is used to guide and direct the sheet material. The point machine makes it possible for the switch body to occupy at least three different positions relative to its surroundings in order to guide the sheet material along at least three different paths.

Nach einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung versetzt der Weichenantrieb den Weichenkörper in zwei unterschiedliche Richtungen in jeweils eine lineare Translationsbewegung. Dadurch wird jede beliebige Einstellung des Weichenkörpers relativ zu seiner Umgebung ermöglicht.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the points drive offset the switch body in two different directions in each case a linear translational movement. This allows any adjustment of the switch body relative to its surroundings.

Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist der Weichenantrieb als magnetischer Antrieb ausgestaltet. Dabei handelt es sich beispielsweise um einen oder mehrere Hubmagnete oder Drehmagnete. Sie sind bevorzugt mit einem oder beiden Enden des Weichenkörpers verbunden und sorgen für eine schnelle Positionsänderung des Weichenkörpers. Um den Weichenkörper möglichst exakt zu führen, sind vorteilhafterweise zusätzliche Führungen vorgesehen.According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the point machine is designed as a magnetic drive. It is about for example, one or more solenoids or rotary magnets. They are preferably connected to one or both ends of the switch body and ensure a rapid change in position of the switch body.

Dabei kann es sich beispielsweise um einen Schrittmotor, einen Synchronmotor oder einen Servomotor handeln. Derartige Motoren haben den Vorteil, dass sie eine exakte Positionierung des Weichenkörpers ermöglichen.According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, an electric motor is provided as switch machine. This may be, for example, a stepping motor, a synchronous motor or a servomotor. Such motors have the advantage that they allow an exact positioning of the switch body.

Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist ein Zahnradgetriebe mit Zahnrad und Zahnstange zur Übertragung der Bewegung des Elektromotors auf den Weichenkörper vorgesehen. Das Zahnradgetriebe ermöglicht die Übersetzung einer Rotationsbewegung des Elektromotors in eine lineare Bewegung des Weichenkörpers.According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, a gear transmission with gear and rack for transmitting the movement of the electric motor is provided on the switch body. The gear transmission allows the translation of a rotational movement of the electric motor in a linear movement of the switch body.

Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist die Weiche mit einem magnetischen Antrieb zur Translationsbewegung in eine erste Richtung und mit einem Elektromotor zur Translationsbewegung in eine zweite Richtung ausgestattet. Zur Translationsbewegung in eine erste Richtung wird der Weichenkörper durch einen oder zwei Magnete, beispielsweise Hub- oder Drehmagnete angeregt. Um die Translationsbewegung in eine zweite Richtung zu ermöglichen, ist ein Elektromotor vorgesehen. Hierzu wird die gesamte Einheit aus Weichenkörper und magnetischem Antrieb durch den Elektromotor bewegt. Dabei ist darauf zu achten, dass der Weichenkörper seine durch den magnetischen Antrieb und den Elektromotor vorgegebene Position exakt einhält und nicht kippelt. Die exakte Positionierung des Weichenkörpers ist notwendig, damit eine zuverlässige Führung des Blattgutes garantiert und eine Beschädigung sowie ein Stau des Blattgutes vermieden werden kann. Die Bewegungen müssen daher ohne Spiel erfolgen. Vorteilhafterweise ist eine Führungsplatte zur Führung des Weichenkörpers vorgesehen, um ein unerwünschtes Ausbrechen des Weichenkörpers aus seiner vorgegebenen Position zu verhindern. An dieser Führungsplatte sind sowohl der Weichenkörper als auch der magnetische Antrieb aufgenommen. Die Bewegung des Elektromotors wird über ein Getriebe auf die Führungsplatte übertragen.According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the switch is equipped with a magnetic drive for translational movement in a first direction and with an electric motor for translational movement in a second direction.

Soll die Transportrichtung entlang der Längsseite freigegeben werden, so wird der Weichenkörper derart mit Abstand zu der Transportplatte positioniert, dass Weichenkörper und Transportplatte einen Spalt begrenzen, durch den das Blattgut hindurchgeführt werden kann. Soll der Transportweg in Längsrichtung jedoch gesperrt werden, so wird der Weichenkörper derart an die Transportplatte herangeführt, dass die Weichenflügel mit ihren Längsseiten in die Aussparungen und/ oder Vertiefungen der Transportplatte eintauchen. Auf diese Weise wird ein anderer Transportweg freigegeben. Durch das teilweise Eintauchen oder Eindringen der Weichenflügel in die Aussparungen oder Vertiefungen der Transportplatte wird vermieden, dass das Blattgut mit den spitz zulaufenden Kanten des Weichenflügels kollidiert. Durch derartige Kollisionen könnte ein Stau des Blattgutes ausgelöst oder das Blattgut beschädigt werden.According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the switch is equipped with at least one transport plate, which the longitudinal sides of the Weichenflügel is opposite. The transport plate has recesses and / or depressions for the longitudinal sides of the switch wings. While the switch body can change its position thanks to the switch drive, the transport plate is fixedly arranged on the switch. If the transport direction is to be released along the longitudinal side, the switch body is positioned at a distance from the transport plate such that the switch body and transport plate define a gap through which the sheet material can be passed. If the transport path in the longitudinal direction, however, be blocked, the switch body is brought to the transport plate so that the switch wings dive with their long sides in the recesses and / or depressions of the transport plate. In this way, another transport path is released. Due to the partial immersion or penetration of the switch wings in the recesses or depressions of the transport plate is avoided that the sheet material collides with the tapered edges of the switch wing. Such collisions could cause a jam of the sheet material or damage the sheet material.

Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist die Transportplatte mit mehreren parallelen Transportrippen ausgestattet. Der Zwischenraum zwischen den Transportrippen bildet die Vertiefungen für die Weichenflügel. Die Transportrippen können entweder einstückig mit der Transportplatte ausgebildet sein oder als Leisten auf die Transportplatte aufgesetzt sein.According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the transport plate is equipped with a plurality of parallel transport ribs. The space between the transport ribs forms the recesses for the switch wings. The transport ribs can either be integrally formed with the transport plate or be placed as strips on the transport plate.

Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist die Weiche mit mindestens einer Umlenkplatte ausgestattet, welche den Umlenkseiten der Weichenflügel gegenüber liegt. Die Umlenkplatte ist mit Aussparungen und/ oder Vertiefungen für die Umlenkseiten der Weichenflügel ausgestattet. Die Umlenkplatte ist im Unterschied zum Weichenkörper ortsfest an der Weiche angeordnet. Wird der Weichenkörper derart relativ zur Umlenkplatte positioniert, dass ein Abstand zwischen den Umlenkseiten der Weichenflügel und der Umlenkplatte besteht, so kann das Blattgut durch den Spalt zwischen den Umlenkseiten der Weichenflügel und der Umlenkplatte transportiert werden. Wird dagegen der Weichenkörper derart nah an die Umlenkplatte herangeführt, dass die Weichenflügel mit ihren Umlenkseiten in die Aussparungen der Umlenkplatte eindringen, so ist der Transportweg entlang der Umlenkseiten der Weichenflügel gesperrt.According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the switch is equipped with at least one baffle, which lies opposite the deflection sides of the switch wings. The baffle plate is equipped with recesses and / or depressions for the deflection sides of the switch wings. The baffle is arranged in contrast to the switch body fixed to the switch. If the switch body is positioned relative to the deflecting plate such that there is a spacing between the deflecting sides of the switch wings and the deflecting plate, then the sheet material can pass through the gap between the deflecting plates Deflection sides of the switch wings and the baffle are transported. If, on the other hand, the switch body is brought so close to the deflecting plate that the switch blades with their deflecting sides penetrate into the recesses of the deflecting plate, then the transport path along the deflecting sides of the switch wings is blocked.

Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist die Umlenkplatte mit mehreren parallelen Umlenkrippen ausgestattet. Die Vertiefungen für die Umlenkseiten der Weichenflügel werden durch den Zwischenraum zwischen den Umlenkrippen gebildet. Die Umlenkrippen können entweder einstückig mit der Umlenkplatte ausgebildet oder als zusätzliche Leisten auf die Umlenkplatte aufgesetzt sein. Durch das teilweise Eintauchen der Weichenflügel in die Aussparungen beziehungsweise Zwischenräume der Umlenkplatte wird vermieden, dass das Blattgut beim Transport mit den spitz zulaufenden, parallelen Kanten der Weichenflügel kollidieren kann. Auf diese Weise wird eine Beschädigung des Blattgutes und ein Stau des Blattgutes während des Transportes durch die Weiche vermieden.According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the baffle plate is equipped with a plurality of parallel deflection ribs. The recesses for the deflection sides of the switch wings are formed by the space between the Umlenkrippen. The deflecting ribs can either be integrally formed with the baffle or placed as additional strips on the baffle plate. By partially dipping the switch wings in the recesses or spaces of the baffle is avoided that the sheet material during transport with the tapered, parallel edges of the switch wings can collide. In this way, damage to the sheet material and a jam of the sheet material during transport through the switch is avoided.

Weitere Vorteile und vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind der Zeichnung, der nachfolgenden Beschreibung und den Ansprüchen zu entnehmen.Further advantages and advantageous embodiments of the invention can be taken from the drawing, the following description and the claims.

In Figur 1 ist eine Weiche mit einem Weichenkörper 1, mit mehreren Weichenflügeln 2 und insgesamt drei Weichenantrieben 3, 4 und 5 in perspektivischer Ansicht dargestellt. Bei den beiden Weichenantrieben 3 und 4 handelt es sich um Hubmagnete. Die Bewegung der beiden Hubmagnete 3 und 4 wird über zwei Kipphebel 6 auf die Enden des Weichenkörpers 1 übertragen. Von den beiden Kipphebeln 6 ist lediglich einer in der Zeichnung erkennbar. Um zu gewährleisten, dass der Weichenkörper 1 eine geradlinige Bewegung ausführt, sind die beiden Enden des Weichenkörpers 1 in je einer Führungsplatte 7 aufgenommen, welche mit zwei Führungsschlitzen 8 für die Enden des Weichenkörpers 1 ausgestattet ist.In FIG. 1 is a switch with a switch body 1, with a plurality of Weichenflügeln 2 and a total of three Weichenantrieben 3, 4 and 5 shown in a perspective view. The two turnout drives 3 and 4 are lifting solenoids. The movement of the two solenoids 3 and 4 is transmitted via two rocker arms 6 to the ends of the switch body 1. Of the two rocker arms 6 only one can be seen in the drawing. In order to ensure that the switch body 1 performs a rectilinear movement, the two ends of the switch body 1 are each received in a guide plate 7, which is equipped with two guide slots 8 for the ends of the switch body 1.

Bei dem Weichenantrieb 5 handelt es sich um einen Schrittmotor. Die Bewegung des Schrittmotors wird über zwei Antriebsräder 9 und 10 und eine Antriebsstange 11 auf zwei Zahnräder 12 übertragen. Die Zahnräder 12 wiederum rollen an zwei Zahnstangen 13 ab, von denen in der Zeichnung lediglich eine erkennbar ist. Die Zahnstangen 13 sind Teil der beiden Führungsplatten 7. Der Antrieb über den Schrittmotor 5 führt daher dazu, dass sich die gesamte Einheit aus Weichenkörper 1, Führungsplatten 7 und Hubmagneten 3 und 4 mit Kipphebeln 6 nach oben oder unten bewegt.The point machine 5 is a stepper motor. The movement of the stepping motor is transmitted via two drive wheels 9 and 10 and a drive rod 11 on two gears 12. The gears 12 in turn roll on two racks 13, of which only one can be seen in the drawing. The racks 13 are part of the two guide plates 7. The drive via the stepping motor 5 therefore causes the entire unit of switch body 1, guide plates 7 and 3 and 4 lifting magnets with rocker arms 6 moves up or down.

Der Weichenkörper 1 besteht aus einer Weichenachse 14 und insgesamt acht Weichenflügeln 2. Die Weichenflügel sind starr und ortsfest an der Weichenachse angeordnet. Jeder der Weichenflügel 2 ist als Platte ausgebildet und weist drei zueinander parallele, spitz zulaufende Kanten 15, 16 und 17 auf. Die drei Kanten eines jeden Weichenflügels 2 sind parallel zueinander. Sie begrenzen eine ebene Längsseite 18 und zwei nach innen gewölbte Umlenkseiten 19 und 20. An der Längsseite 18 und den beiden Umlenkseiten 19 und 20 gleitet das Blattgut, welches in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellt ist, entlang, während es die Weiche passiert. An welchen der drei Seiten 18, 19 und 20 das Blattgut entlang geführt wird, hängt von der in den Figuren 4, 5 und 6 eingestellten Position des Weichenkörpers 1 ab.The switch body 1 consists of a switch axis 14 and a total of eight switch blades 2. The switch wings are rigid and fixedly arranged on the switch axis. Each of the switch wings 2 is formed as a plate and has three mutually parallel, tapered edges 15, 16 and 17. The three edges of each switch wing 2 are parallel to each other. They define a flat longitudinal side 18 and two inwardly curved deflection sides 19 and 20. On the longitudinal side 18 and the two deflection sides 19 and 20 slides the sheet material, which is not shown in the drawing, along while passing the switch. At which of the three sides 18, 19 and 20, the sheet material is guided along, depends on the in the FIGS. 4, 5 and 6 set position of the switch body 1 from.

Figur 2 zeigt die gesamte Weiche in perspektivischer Darstellung. Der Weichenkörper 1 ist in Figur 2 nicht erkennbar, da er durch die Transportplatte 21 und die beiden Umlenkplatten 22 und 23 abgedeckt ist. Der Hubmagnet 3, der Schrittmotor 5, der Kipphebel 6, die Führungsplatte 7 mit Führungsschlitz 8 sowie das Getriebe des Schrittmotors 5 sind in Figur 2 jedoch erkennbar. Die Transportplatte 21 und die beiden Umlenkplatten 22 und 23 sind mit Transportrippen 24 und Umlenkrippen 25 und 26 ausgestattet. Je zwei dieser Rippen begrenzen einen Zwischenraum, der zusammen mit einer Aussparung in der Transportplatte 21 und den Umlenkplatten 22 und 23 eine Vertiefung bildet, in welche die Weichenflügel 2 zumindest teilweise eindringen können. Dies ist in den Figuren 4 bis 5 erkennbar. FIG. 2 shows the entire switch in perspective view. The switch body 1 is in FIG. 2 not recognizable, since it is covered by the transport plate 21 and the two baffles 22 and 23. The solenoid 3, the stepper motor 5, the rocker arm 6, the guide plate 7 with guide slot 8 and the transmission of the stepping motor 5 are in FIG. 2 however recognizable. The transport plate 21 and the two deflecting plates 22 and 23 are equipped with transport ribs 24 and deflecting ribs 25 and 26. Each two of these ribs define a gap, which forms together with a recess in the transport plate 21 and the baffles 22 and 23 a recess into which the switch wings 2 can at least partially penetrate. This is in the FIGS. 4 to 5 recognizable.

Figur 3 zeigt die Weiche gemäß Figur 2 in einer Seitenansicht. FIG. 3 shows the switch according to FIG. 2 in a side view.

In den Figuren 4, 5 und 6 sind mögliche Positionen des Weichenkörpers relativ zu der Transportplatte und den beiden Umlenkplatten dargestellt. Zur Vereinfachung enthalten die drei Zeichnungen jeweils nur einen Weichenflügel 2, die Weichenachse 14 sowie je eine Transportrippe 24 der Transportplatte 21, eine Umlenkrippe 25 der Umlenkplatte 22 und eine Umlenkrippe 26 der Umlenkplatten 23. Da es sich um eine Seitenansicht handelt, ist ein Einblick in die durch die Rippen gebildeten Vertiefungen nicht möglich. Die Figuren lassen lediglich erkennen, dass die Weichenflügel 2 bis zur Weichenachse 14 in die Vertiefungen eindringen können.In the FIGS. 4, 5 and 6 possible positions of the switch body are shown relative to the transport plate and the two baffles. For simplicity, the three drawings each contain only one Weichenflügel 2, the switch axis 14 and a respective transport rib 24 of the transport plate 21, a Umlenkrippe 25 of the baffle plate 22 and a Umlenkrippe 26 of the baffles 23. Since it is a side view, is an insight into the depressions formed by the ribs are not possible. The figures merely show that the switch wings 2 can penetrate into the depressions as far as the switch axis 14.

In der in Figur 4 dargestellten Position des Weichenkörpers ist der Weichenflügel 2 entlang seiner Längsseite 18 in die durch die Transportrippe 25 der Transportplatte 21 gebildete Vertiefung bis zur Weichenachse 14 eingetaucht.In the in FIG. 4 shown position of the switch body of the switch wing 2 along its longitudinal side 18 in the recess formed by the transport rib 25 of the transport plate 21 recess to the switch axis 14 is immersed.

Der Weichenflügel verschließt den Spalt zwischen der Transportplatte 21 und der Umlenkplatte 23 und gibt den Pfad zwischen der Transportplatte 21 und der Umlenkplatte 22 sowie zwischen den beiden Umlenkplatten 22 und 23 frei. In dieser Einstellung wird das Blattgut von links kommend nach unten geleitet. Dank der in die Vertiefung eingetauchten Längsseite des Weichenflügels 2 wird verhindert, dass das Blattgut mit der spitz zulaufenden Kante 15 des Weichenflügels 2, welche in Figur 1 dargestellt ist, kollidiert. Die Kante 15 ist in der Position gemäß Figur 4 vollständig durch die Vertiefung, welche durch zwei Transportrippen 24 gebildet wird, aufgenommen.The switch wing closes the gap between the transport plate 21 and the deflecting plate 23 and releases the path between the transport plate 21 and the deflecting plate 22 and between the two deflecting plates 22 and 23. In this setting, the sheet material is sent from the left downwards. Thanks to the immersed in the recess long side of the switch wing 2 prevents the sheet material with the tapered edge 15 of the switch wing 2, which in FIG. 1 is shown collides. The edge 15 is in the position according to FIG. 4 completely received by the recess, which is formed by two transport ribs 24.

In der Position des Weichenkörpers gemäß Figur 5 wird das Blattgut von links nach rechts geradlinig transportiert. In dieser Position tauchen die Weichenflügel 2 mit ihrer Umlenkseite 19 vollständig in die durch die Umlenkrippen 24 der Umlenkplatte 22 gebildeten Vertiefung ein. Die spitz zulaufende Kante 15 der Weichenflügel 2 ist in dieser Position vollständig in die Vertiefung aufgenommen. Sie ist daher in Figur 5 nicht erkennbar. Eine Kollision des Blattgutes mit der spitz zulaufenden Kante 15 der Weichenflügel 2 kann dadurch vermieden werden. Soll das Blattgut von rechts nach links transportiert werden, so wird der Weichenkörper nach rechts verschoben, so dass die spitz zulaufende Kante 16 vollständig in die durch die Umlenkrippen 26 der Umlenkplatte 23 gebildete Vertiefung aufgenommen ist. Diese Position ist in den Figuren 4 bis 6 nicht dargestellt. Bei einem Transport von rechts nach links gleitet das Blattgut entlang der Längsseite 18 der Weichenflügel 2.In the position of the switch body according to FIG. 5 The sheet material is transported straight from left to right. In this position, the switch wings 2 dive with their deflection side 19 completely into the depression formed by the deflection ribs 24 of the deflection plate 22. The tapered edge 15 of the switch wings 2 is completely received in this position in the recess. She is therefore in FIG. 5 not visible. A collision of the sheet material with the tapered edge 15 of the switch wings 2 can be avoided. If the sheet material to be transported from right to left, the switch body is moved to the right, so that the tapered edge 16 is completely taken up in the recess formed by the deflecting ribs 26 of the baffle 23. This position is in the FIGS. 4 to 6 not shown. During a transport from right to left, the sheet material slides along the longitudinal side 18 of the switch wings 2.

Bei der Position des Weichenkörpers gemäß Figur 6 sind die Weichenflügel 2 ebenfalls mit ihrer Längsseite in die durch die Transportrippen 24 der Transportplatte 21 gebildeten Vertiefungen eingetaucht. In diesem Fall sind die Weichenflügel 2 jedoch nach links verschoben, so dass das Blattgut entlang der Umlenkseite 20 transportiert wird. Der Transport erfolgt von rechts nach unten. Die spitz zulaufende Kante 16 der Weichenflügel 2 ist in diesem Fall vollständig in die durch die Transportrippen 24 der Transportplatte 21 gebildeten Vertiefungen eingetaucht, so dass das Blattgut mit dieser Kante nicht kollidieren kann. In dieser Position ist der Spalt zwischen der Transportplatte 21 und den Weichenflügeln 2 sowie zwischen der Umlenkplatte 22 und den Weichenflügeln 2 abgedeckt. Lediglich der Spalt zwischen der Umlenkplatte 23 und den Weichenflügeln 2 ist für den Transport freigegeben.In the position of the switch body according to FIG. 6 are the Weichenflügel 2 also immersed with its long side in the recesses formed by the transport ribs 24 of the transport plate 21. In this case, however, the switch blades 2 are shifted to the left, so that the sheet material is transported along the deflecting side 20. The transport takes place from the right to the bottom. The tapered edge 16 of the switch wings 2 is completely immersed in this case in the recesses formed by the transport ribs 24 of the transport plate 21, so that the sheet material does not collide with this edge can. In this position, the gap between the transport plate 21 and the Weichenflügeln 2 and between the baffle 22 and the Weichenflügeln 2 is covered. Only the gap between the baffle plate 23 and the Weichenflügeln 2 is released for transport.

Die Figuren 4, 5 und 6 zeigen lediglich drei mögliche Einstellungen des Weichenkörpers 1. Für den Transport in die entgegengesetzten Richtungen sind drei weitere Einstellungen des Weichenkörpers möglich, die in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellt sind. Dabei wird dafür Sorge getragen, dass jeweils diejenige spitz zulaufende Kante 15, 16 oder 17 der Weichenflügel 2, an welche sich das Blattgut beim Transport zuerst annähert, in die jeweilige Vertiefung der Umlenkplatten 22 und 23 oder der Transportplatte 21 aufgenommen ist, um zu verhindern, dass das Blattgut auf diese Kante aufläuft.The FIGS. 4, 5 and 6 show only three possible settings of the switch body 1. For the transport in the opposite directions, three other settings of the switch body are possible, which are not shown in the drawing. In this case, care is taken that in each case that tapered edge 15, 16 or 17 of the switch wings 2, to which the sheet material first approaches during transport, is received in the respective recess of the baffles 22 and 23 or the transport plate 21 to prevent in that the sheet material runs onto this edge.

Sämtliche Merkmale der Erfindung können sowohl einzeln als auch in beliebiger Kombination miteinander erfindungswesentlich sein.All features of the invention may be essential to the invention both individually and in any combination with each other.
