Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for gathering multi-layer brochures according to claim 1 and a saddle stitcher according to the preamble of claim 4.
  • Collating machines serve to collate book blocks from a plurality of signatures and comprise two essential elements: a device for transporting the collected sheets, a so-called block collector, and a plurality of investors.
  • the block collector may for example have a collecting channel with the collected sheets pushing drivers.
  • the block collector may have rotating transport compartments on a conveyor.
  • the feeders can be designed as feeders with gripper tongs or feeders with gripper drum.
  • the DE 1 216 837 shows such a collator with in a row juxtaposed investors with rapier and with an endless conveyor provided with carriers.
  • the gathering machine has both a book block display and a transfer device for transferring the book block to a subsequent further processing machine, such as an adhesive binder.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to describe a method which represents a simple, efficient and cost-effective solution for collating.
  • This object is achieved by a method for gathering according to claim 1, using a saddle stitcher.
  • Saddle stitchers are known and, for example, in the DE 20 2008 002 441 U1 described. From folded sheet investors individual folded sheets are separated from a stack, opened and placed on the gathering chain.
  • the gathering chain has a guide device whose upper portion is formed like a blade and whose ridge line determines the transport and stitching line, and a substantially roof-shaped support on which the signatures are transported astride.
  • the collecting chain In order to securely grasp the folded sheets deposited on the gathering chain even at high processing speeds, to achieve safe entrainment and to transport them evenly, the collecting chain has entrainment elements which convey the deposited folding sheets in the horizontal direction.
  • the folded sheets fed by the gathering chain and the carriers are transported through the gathering chain up to a stitching station.
  • the inventive method for collating Mehrlagenbroschuren consisting of a plurality n of signatures, is carried out using a saddle stitcher.
  • the saddle stitcher has a collecting line which has a collecting element moved by a drive and a plurality m of feeders arranged along the collecting line for depositing signatures on the collecting element.
  • the collecting element may in particular be a collecting chain.
  • the collecting element has a plurality of transport segments. In the case of a collecting chain, these are formed by the drivers.
  • the saddle stitcher has a stapling, a trimming and a Auslegestation.
  • the drive of the collecting element and the delivery station are connected to a common control unit. It is advantageous if the stitching and the trimming station are connected to this control unit.
  • a first signature is filed by a first feeder in a first transport segment of the collecting organ.
  • a second signature is stored by a second feeder in a second transport segment.
  • the collecting element is moved by its drive so that at this time, the second transport segment is located below the second investor.
  • the last signature of the multi-layer brochure referred to here as the nth signature, is stored by an nth feeder in an nth transport segment.
  • successive transport segments of the collecting device now contain successive signatures, which are to be assembled in this order into a multi-layer brochure, that is to say to a book block. Subsequently, the signatures are transported through the stitching station and the trimming station without being stapled or trimmed, and finally laid out in the delivery station.
  • this method it is advantageously possible by means of a saddle stitcher to combine individual signatures to form a book block. This can easily replace the gathering by hand.
  • this method allows a cost-effective and rapid gathering of book blocks for small runs, which can be subsequently bound in a hand-fed small perfect binder.
  • the delivery of the multi-layer brochures is carried out so that a respective multi-layer brochure is designed separately from a subsequently collected multi-layer brochure.
  • a respective multi-layer brochure is designed separately from a subsequently collected multi-layer brochure.
  • the signatures, which form a Mehrlagenbroschur are designed in a stack and the signatures, which form a subsequently collected Mehrlagenbroschur be designed with an offset to the previous batch.
  • the multi-layer brochures can also be separated by means of marking strips.
  • a stacker can be used for laying, so that the stack not only with an offset but each rotated by 90 ° to each other are designed. All three variants of the method described advantageously make it easy to pick up a collated Mehrlagenbroschur.
  • every nth transport segment is assigned an n-th signature.
  • All transport segments are filled with one signature without gaps.
  • the invention also relates to a saddle stitcher for signatures made of paper, cardboard and the like according to the characterizing features of claim 4.
  • the saddle stitcher according to the invention has a collecting section with a collecting member and a plurality of m along the collection line arranged investors for filing signatures on the collecting element and has further a stitching station, a Beêtstation and a display station.
  • the collection line, the stitching station, the trimming station and the delivery station are connected to a common control unit.
  • the collecting element of the collection line has a plurality of transport segments. If the collecting element is formed by a gathering chain, the transport segments are created by the carriers attached to the collecting chain.
  • the control unit has a machine program for collating multilayer brochures, consisting of a plurality n of signatures.
  • the machine program controls the stitching station in such a way that it does not staple, and the trimming station in such a way that is not cut.
  • the signatures pass through the stitching and trimming station without being edited, that is without being stapled or trimmed.
  • the investors are controlled by the machine program so that a maximum of one signature is stored in a respective transport segment.
  • the number of investors m is advantageously greater than or equal to the number of signatures n, which form a Mehrlagenbroschur.
  • Such a saddle stitcher advantageously allows a simple and secure gathering of multi-layer brochures for short runs and can thus replace the gathering by hand in a simple and cost-effective manner.
  • the delivery station is designed so that a Mehrlagenbroschur is separated from each subsequently collected Mehrlagenbroschur.
  • the delivery station can be, in particular, a cross-stacker.
  • the delivery station may also be a flat delivery with marking devices. Both alternatives make it possible for the machine operator to advantageously remove the multilayer brochures collected by means of the saddle stitcher simply by hand from the delivery station and to be able to feed it to an adhesive binder.
  • a respective feeder and / or the stitching station and / or the trimming station and / or the delivery station each have a control unit. These control units are then connected to the common control unit. In the alternative embodiment of the saddle stitcher according to the invention, the control takes place exclusively by the common control unit.
  • FIG. 1 shows a saddle stitcher 100 with three investors 101, 102 and 104, a gathering chain 70, a stitching station 8, a trimming station 40 and a delivery station 50.
  • the feeders 101, 102, 104 and the drive of the gathering chain 70 (not shown), the stitching station 8, the trimming station 40 and the delivery station 50 are connected to a common control unit 30.
  • the saddle stitcher 100 further has a Umtschfalzanleger 3, a dispensing device 9, an inkjet station 4 and a discharge device 60. These components are not considered in detail, since they are not relevant to the subject invention and are not used in the application of the method according to the invention. It should only be clarified here that the saddle stitcher 100 is a commercial saddle stitcher.
  • a machine program is stored in the control unit 30, which allows a collation of multi-layer brochures 210.
  • the stitching station 8 and the trimming station 40 are controlled by the control unit 30 in such a way that they are not operated, that is to say that they do not process the signatures 201, 202, 204.
  • the investors 101, 102, 104 are controlled by the control unit 30 so that they discard signatures 201, 202, 204 on the gathering chain 70 in the correct order.
  • the signatures 201, 202, 204 are transported by the gathering chain 70 in the direction of transport T through the stitching station 8. Subsequently, the signatures 201, 202, 204 are transported through the trimming station 40 and laid out as a multi-layer brochure 210 by the delivery station 50.
  • the process of gathering a respective multi-layer brochure is closer FIG. 2 ,
  • the collecting element of the saddle stitcher 100 is formed by a gathering chain 70.
  • a gathering chain 70 At the gathering chain 70, a plurality of carriers 71 is attached, whereby transport segments 701, 702, 704 are formed.
  • a first signature 201 is stored in the first transport segment 701 of the gathering chain 70.
  • a second signature 202 is stored in a second transport segment 702.
  • the number of investors m must correspond to at least the number of signatures n, which form a multi-layer brochure.
  • a multi-layer brochure 210 is formed by three signatures 201, 202 and 204. n is thus 3.
  • an nth signature 204 is stored in an nth transport segment 704.
  • the successive signatures 201, 202 and 204 which are collected in this order and later form a book block. If the signatures 201, 202, 204 are initially transported at a distance, they become, as in FIG FIG. 2 shown below, in the region of the delivery station 50 (not shown) pushed together or stacked to a multilayer brochure 210.
  • Such a gathered Mehrlagenbroschur 210 can easily and easily by the machine operator be safely removed by hand and an adhesive binder with manual feed, such as customary for single tethers, fed.
