Definitions

  • Embodiments of the invention relate to a method and apparatus for transporting paper in a paper handling installation from a first transport to a second transport, e.g. to a tailor who cuts a paper web into cut sheets and hands them to an infeed of a subsequent processing station.
  • Paper handling systems are known in the art which receive individual goods, for example personalized cover letters or sheets, grouped into a plurality of individual goods and further processed for dispatch.
  • groups include, for example, a cover letter to a recipient and optionally one or more subsequent pages of the letter and objects associated with the letter, such as credit cards or the like.
  • the group may include supplements.
  • the assembled group is then prepared for shipping, for example, by folding the group and welding the edges of the folded group or inserting the collected groups.
  • Such a system receives the sheets to be processed via one or more input channels, wherein such an input channel may be designed such that a paper web printed by an upstream printer is fed. Such paper webs can be printed on one or more users. When supplying thus prepared sheets in the input channel is a cross section to create single sheets. If the webs are printed with multiple uses, one or more longitudinal cuts occur in front of the cross section.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of a known paper handling system.
  • the paper handling system shown is an inserter 100 and includes a first entrance 102 and a second entrance 104, each provided with an endless path 106 and 108.

  • the inputs 102 and 104 include cutters 110 and 112 to cut across the supplied paper webs 106 and 108 to produce the cut sheets to be processed.
  • the two-purpose printed paper web 108 is further cut longitudinally.
  • the cut sheets are provided individually or in groups to an inserter 118, which envelopes them.
  • the paper handling system described above consists of various components and functional units. In the transition from one functional unit to the next there are transports that transport the paper from one component to the next. Preferably, the paper is transported trapped in the outlet of the first component, and taken in the inlet of the following component with slight overspeed grinding. This design between components or functional units is not a problem, as long as the paper is not accelerated or only very little.
  • Fig. 2 schematically shows a cutting machine 110, as in the prior art in paper handling systems of the Fig. 1 described type is used.
  • Fig. 2 (A) a schematic representation of a known paper cutting machine 110 is shown.
  • the cutting machine 110 includes a paper feeding device (first transport) 130 that is driven by a motor 130a.
  • the paper feeder 130 comprises a drive roller 132 driven by the motor 130a at a speed V1 and a guide roller 134.

  • the cutting device 144 comprises a so-called fall knife 146, which has substantially the shape of a guillotine, and a counter-blade 152, on which the fall blade 146 moves during its cutting movement in the direction perpendicular to the paper web 140.
  • the operation of the drop knife 146 is effected by means of a motor 154.
  • the fall knife performs when driving the motor 154 a continuous up and down movement through.
  • a paper discharge device (second transport) 164 is provided which serves to move the cut pieces of paper further.
  • This paper discharge means comprises a drive roller 168 actuated by a motor 166.
  • the motor 166 drives the drive roller 168 at a constant speed V3.
  • the speed V3 of the drive roller 168 is higher than the feeding speed of the paper web 140, so that a safe removal of the cut papers is ensured.
  • the paper removal device 164 comprises, in addition to the drive roller 168, a guide roller 170, the cut papers moving between the drive roller 168 and the guide roller 170.
  • the motor 154 is driven and accelerated to the speed V2, which is reached at time t 4 . This speed is maintained until time t 5 and the speed is lowered to zero until time t 6 .
  • the paper discharge device 164 which is driven by the motor 168 continuously at the speed V3, ensures that the cut paper is transported further.
  • the basis of the Fig. 2 (B) described speed control again and the paper web 140 is further fed in the direction of the cutting device 144 until the corresponding cutting position on the paper web 140 is reached.
  • Such cutters are eg in the WO 97/11902 A1 , of the WO 96/33122 A1 and in the WO 01/66448 A2 described.
  • the start / stop operation of a cutting machine means that the paper is stopped during the cut.
  • a sanding transport is used for the removal of the paper, with a constant, compared to the feed drive higher output speed is running (see Fig. 2 ).
  • the overspeed is preferred to quickly advance the paper, on the one hand, and to tightly pull the paper web to the other, so that transverse folds in the paper do not result in a large variance in cut lengths.
  • the constant speed, but higher than the feed drive results in a high differential speed between the paper which is not moved when cutting and the elements of the grinding transport.
  • One possible solution would be to design the removal in such a way that one of the transport elements, e.g. a lower roller, always in contact with the paper and running constantly to realize the grinding transport during positioning and cutting, whereas another transporting element, e.g. an upper roll, is lifted and is placed only for the removal of the cut paper.
  • another transporting element e.g. an upper roll
  • This differential speed or relative movement between the paper and the upper roll provides the frictional heat causing the damage.
  • toner transfer occurs through the constantly-moving roller (e.g., the lower roller).
  • Another solution would be to provide a controlled drive, in which the transport elements of the Abtransports are always engaged with the paper, so that the paper slip is taken over (with very high pressure force).
  • the problem that too high a set pressure while ensuring a high level of security for the removal of the cut sheet, but the feed in the cutting machine is adversely affected by the high additional force, so that the feed drive the paper no longer in the tight Position tolerances in the correct cutting position.

  • the US 4,429,602 A describes a device for cutting material webs, which operates in start / stop operation, in which two pairs of rollers are provided in front of a cutter, wherein the first pair of rollers continuously drives the material web.

  • Exemplary embodiments of the invention for example cutters according to embodiments of the invention, can be found, for example, in US Pat Fig. 1 used paper handling system can be used.
  • Fig. 3 Fig. 12 shows schematic illustrations of a device for transporting paper from a first transport to a second transport, with reference to which embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below.
  • Fig. 3 (A) shows an example of a cutter a situation in which a paper web 140 is introduced between the transports 130 and 164, ie a situation immediately before cutting. Furthermore, in Fig. 3 (A) the sheet 174 already cut in the previous cycle is shown. According to embodiments of the invention, the transport 164 is designed such that it has a speed that at least partially follows a travel curve of the first transport 130, in particular in a situation as described in US Pat Fig. 3 (A) is shown in which the paper web 140 is conveyed both by the first transport 130 and by the second transport 164.
  • a frictional force between the second transport 164 and the paper web 140 is set to a first, low value, thereby avoiding possible toner abrasion, while ensuring that the paper web 140 is also transported 164 is promoted so that it is pulled tight, for example, for cutting so as to avoid problems with respect to a cutting position.
  • the frictional force is dependent on a coefficient of friction of the material to be conveyed and the transport element and / or the pressure exerted by the transport elements on the material to be conveyed.
  • Fig. 3 (B) shows a situation similar to Fig. 3 (A) However, here already the paper web 140 has been promoted so far that the cutting position has been reached. In this situation, the transport rollers of the transport 130 are stopped, but the transport rollers of the transport 164 are still driven to tighten the paper web hold. Also in this situation, the frictional force between the transport 164 and the paper web 140 and the sheet 174 to be cut, respectively, remains at the low level so as to avoid toner abrasion problems. It should be noted here that the frictional force in the in 3 (A) and 3 (B) shown situations can be set to a common friction force or to each different frictional forces.
  • Fig. 3 (C) shows the situation immediately after cutting.
  • the transport 130 is still stopped and the transport 164 is driven at an increased speed to quickly discharge the cut cut sheet 174.
  • the frictional force between the transport members of the transport 164 and the cut sheet 174 is set to a higher value.
  • the frictional force between the second transport and the paper is set to a second value higher than the first value when the paper is conveyed only by the second transport.
  • Fig. 3 (D) shows a situation in which the cut sheet 174 has already left the second transport 164 and the paper web 140 is moved in the direction of the second transport, in which situation the second transport 164 is preferably set so that a frictional force between the transport and the to be picked up paper web 140 is set back to the first, lower value.
  • the sheet would be promptly conveyed by both transports 130 and 164, avoiding problems as described above due to the low frictional engagement between the sheet and the transport 164.
  • the first transport 130 releases the sheet, so that the further transport takes place exclusively by the second transport, in which situation the frictional force the high value is set.
  • Embodiments of the invention as described above set the frictional force between a first, low value and a second, higher value.
  • the transition between the first value and the second value, and also the transition back to the first value can take place either stepwise in one step or in several steps or continuously, eg linearly or exponentially rising / falling.
  • the first value and the second value for the frictional force and also the step size or the degree of the continuous change becomes dependent on one or more properties of the paper to be transported and / or dependent on a speed with which Paper is being promoted.
  • Properties of the paper may include, for example, the mass of the paper, the surface roughness of the paper, the thickness of the paper, the dimension of the paper, or the like.
  • the frictional force can be adjusted depending on how the paper to be transported has been printed, in which case properties of the used printing material, such as the toner, and the method for applying the printing material are taken into account.
  • Embodiments have been described in which the frictional force established between the transport 164 and the sheet 174 is changed between a low value and a high value.
  • Fig. 3 has been generally spoken of a transport 164 having such a property, such a friction force change by the transport 164 can be obtained by various embodiments of the transport.
  • Embodiments of the invention relate to transports in which the elements of the transport 164 are controlled to adjust the frictional force between the elements and the paper being conveyed by changing the pressure that the elements of the transport 164 exert on the paper.
  • Such a frictional / pressure change may be gradual or continuous, for example, starting from a situation in which no pressure is applied, may be continuous, or one, two or more stages (steps), a final maximum allowable pressure be set.
  • Embodiments of the invention generate this pressure change by increasing a pressing force exerted, for example, by rollers or belt elements of the transport 164 on the paper to be conveyed.
  • Other embodiments use suction belts, in which case an adjustment of the pressure via a variation of the applied suction force is achieved.
  • transports in which the transport elements, eg the rollers, are formed of metal, whose surface property can be changed depending on an applied current due to electrostatic charging, so that, for example, a low coefficient of friction is achieved when the metal roller is not energized, and a high coefficient of friction is obtained when the metal roller is energized.
  • Other embodiments use transport elements whose surface property can be changed by that, in a situation where low frictional force is desired, only metal portions of a roll or other low friction portions are in contact with the papers to be transported. In a situation in which a high frictional force is desired, these drive elements can be designed so that other areas of the role can be "switched", which have a higher coefficient of friction.
  • transports 164 in which opposing pairs of rollers are used, wherein at least one of the pairs of rollers is rotatably mounted such that either a first roller of the pair of rollers or a second roller of the pair of rollers opposes a corresponding counter-roller.
  • the two rollers have different surface properties and thus different coefficients of friction. Depending on the desired frictional force, either a first roller in contact with the paper web to be conveyed or the second roller with the paper web to be conveyed are brought into contact. Alternatively, it can also be provided that the two rollers are made of the same material but are pressed against the paper web with different forces.

Procédé selon l'une des revendications 1 à 4, dans lequel le premier transport (130) transporte le papier pendant un premier segment (t0-t2) d'un cycle de traitement (t0-t6) à une vitesse (vmin) qui est réduite par rapport à une vitesse pendant un autre segment (t2-t6) du cycle de traitement (t0-t6), le premier transport (130) déplaçant le papier avec un profil de vitesse prédéterminé (186), et le procédé présentant les étapes suivantes consistant à:
    (a) entraîner le deuxième transport (164) avec un profil de vitesse (184) qui suit le profil de vitesse (186) du premier transport (130);
    (b) lorsqu'un premier moment (t1) est atteint pendant le premier segment (t0-t2) du cycle de traitement (t0-t6), régler la force de friction à la deuxième valeur (p2);
    (c) transporter le papier au moyen du deuxième transport (164) à la force de friction qui est réglée à la deuxième valeur (p2); et
    (d) après que le papier ait quitté le deuxième transport (164), régler la force de friction à la première valeur (p1), de sorte que l'autre papier soit soumis par le deuxième transport (164) à une force de friction inférieure.
  6. Procédé selon la revendication 5, à l'étape suivante consistant à:
    (e) répéter les étapes (b) à (d).
  7. Procédé selon la revendication 5 ou 6, dans lequel une vitesse du deuxième transport (164) pour les segments correspondants des profils de vitesse (184, 186) du premier transport (130) et du deuxième transport (164) est supérieure à une vitesse à laquelle le premier transport (130) transporte le papier.
  8. Procédé selon la revendication 5 ou 6, dans lequel le profil de vitesse (184) du deuxième transport (164) entre le moment (t3) où le papier a quitté le deuxième transport et la fin (t6) du cycle de traitement (t0-t6) suit le profil de vitesse (186) du premier transport (130), et dans lequel le profil de vitesse (184) du deuxième transport (164) entre la fin (t2) du premier segment (t0-t2) du cycle de traitement (t0-t6) et le moment (t3) où le papier a quitté le deuxième transport (164) est tel que le deuxième transport (164) transporte le papier plus rapidement que le premier transport (130).
  9. Procédé selon l'une des revendications 1 à 8, dans lequel la force de friction entre le deuxième transport et le papier est réglée en modifiant une propriété superficielle d'un élément du deuxième transport qui est en contact avec le papier.
  10. Procédé selon l'une des revendications 1 à 8, dans lequel la force de friction entre le deuxième transport et le papier est réglée en modifiant une pression que le deuxième transport exerce sur le papier.
  11. Procédé selon la revendication 1, dans lequel la production de la feuille individuelle comporte une découpe ou un arrachement de la bande de papier.
  12. Dispositif de transport de papier dans une installation de manutention de papier (100, 110) d'un premier transport (130) vers un deuxième transport (164), le papier étant présent sous forme d'une bande de papier, avec:
    une commande (178) qui est reliée en fonctionnement au premier transport (130) et au deuxième transport (164) pour provoquer
    que le deuxième transport (164) présente une vitesse qui suit au moins partiellement une courbe de circulation du premier transport (130) lorsque le papier est transporté par le premier transport (130) et le deuxième transport (164),
    qu'une force de friction entre le deuxième transport (164) et le papier soit réglée à une première valeur lorsque le premier transport (130) et le deuxième transport (164) sont en prise avec le papier,
    que la force de friction entre le deuxième transport (164) et le papier soit réglée à une deuxième valeur qui est supérieure à la première valeur lorsque le papier est transporté par le deuxième transport (164),
    que le premier transport (130) fonctionne en mode marche/arrêt,
    que la bande de papier soit transportée par le premier transport (130),
    qu'une feuille individuelle soit produite à partir de la bande de papier lorsque le premier transport ne transporte pas la bande de papier,
    que le deuxième transport (164) reçoive une extrémité avant de la bande de papier avant la production de la feuille individuelle et transporte la bande de papier avant la production de la feuille individuelle de sorte que la bande de papier soit tendue avant la production de la feuille individuelle,
    que le deuxième transport (164) suive le premier transport (130) jusqu'à l'arrêt, de sorte que puisse être produite la feuille individuelle, et
    que le deuxième transport (164) évacue la feuille individuelle.
  13. Dispositif selon la revendication 12, dans lequel la commande est opérationnelle pour rétablir la force de friction à la première valeur lorsque le papier n'est plus transporté par le deuxième transport (164), de sorte que l'autre papier soit transporté par le deuxième transport (164) initialement avec une moindre force de friction.
  14. Dispositif selon la revendication 12 ou 13, dans lequel le premier transport (130) transporte le papier pendant un premier segment (t0-t2) d'un cycle de traitement (t0-t6) à une vitesse (vmin) qui est réduite par rapport à une vitesse pendant un autre segment (t2-t6) du cycle de traitement (t0-t6), le premier transport (130) déplaçant le papier avec un profil de vitesse prédéterminé (186), la commande (178) étant opérationnelle pour
    entraîner le deuxième transport (164) avec un profil de vitesse (184) qui suit le profil de vitesse (186) du premier transport (130);
    lorsqu'un premier moment (t1) est atteint pendant le premier segment (t0-t2) du cycle de traitement (t0-t6), régler la force de friction à la deuxième valeur (p2);
    transporter le papier à l'aide du deuxième transport (164) à la force de friction qui est réglée à la deuxième valeur (p2); et
    après que le papier ait quitté le deuxième transport (164), régler la force de friction à la première valeur (p1), de sorte que l'autre papier soit soumis par le deuxième transport (164) à une force de friction inférieure.
  15. Installation de manutention de papier (100, 110), avec:
    un moyen (144) destiné à séparer une bande de papier en feuilles individuelles qui fonctionne en mode marche/arrèt; et
    un dispositif selon l'une des revendications 12 à 14, le traitement de la feuille individuelle comportant une production de la feuille individuelle à partir de la bande de papier.
