Abstract

Die Vorrichtung zum Fördern von Druckereiprodukten (12) weist eine Zufördereinrichtung (14) auf, welche die Druckereiprodukte (12) zu einem Abgabeende (18) fördert. An diesem führt die Greifer-Umlaufbahn (24) des Greiferförderers (16) mit dem Übernahmeabschnitt (26) vorbei. Beim Hindurchbewegen durch den Übernahmeabschnitt (26) ergreifen die Greifer (22) mit ihrem Greifermaul die Druckereiprodukt (12) und fördern diese weiter. Befindet sich der Übernahmeabschnitt (26) bezüglich der Zufördereinrichtung (14) in der Mittenposition (36), werden die Druckereiprodukte (12) mittig gefasst und weitergefördert. Ist hingegen der Übernahmeabschnitt (26) mittels der Verstelleinrichtung (34) in eine Seitenposition (38) verschoben, werden die Druckereiprodukte (12) ausser mittig erfasst und weitergefördert.

Figure imgaf001
The device for conveying printed products (12) has a feed device (14) which conveys the printed products (12) to a delivery end (18). At this leads the gripper orbit (24) of the gripper conveyor (16) with the transfer section (26) over. When passing through the transfer section (26), the grippers (22) grasp the printed product (12) with their gripper mouth and convey it further. If the transfer section (26) is located in the center position (36) with respect to the feed device (14), the printed products (12) are centrally caught and conveyed further. If, on the other hand, the transfer section (26) is displaced into a lateral position (38) by means of the adjusting device (34), the printed products (12) are detected outside the center and conveyed further.
