Definitions

  • sheet products e.g. folded sheets, newspapers, brochures, flyers or the like.
  • sheet products e.g. folded sheets, newspapers, brochures, flyers or the like.
  • the products are transported without further hindrance on one transport route.
  • the scale flow is deflected from one transport path to the other crossing transport route.
  • the scale formation should remain as such as possible unchanged.
  • the transfer means comprise a transfer device with a space curve describing, adaptable deflection, which maintains a distance to one of the transport paths with a movable free end in the first setting and in the second setting with the free end in one of the Transport routes deflecting engages.
  • the mechanism becomes particularly simple if, according to another embodiment, the deflection path has a constant length, and the space curve of the deflection path changes when the free end of the deflection path is moved. Under moving is understood inter alia a method and a pivoting.
  • an adjusting device is provided for moving the free end of the deflection.
  • the adjustment works with advantage pneumatically or hydraulically or electrically.
  • Another embodiment is characterized in that the two transport paths intersect at an angle of substantially 90 °, and that the deflection path describes a space curve, which causes a deflection by substantially 90 ° with simultaneous turning of the flat products.
  • the deflection path 25 with the head 16 adjoins the route section 11a such that products 14 transported on this route section can be transferred directly to the deflection route 25 or (in the case of the reverse transport direction) via the deflection route 25 brought products 14 directly to the route section 11a can be forwarded.
  • the pivoting out of the middle track section 11b can be done passively as described above. However, it is also conceivable to provide a separate drive mechanism for swinging out.
  • the head 16 is lowered again, whereby the middle section 11 b in the non-swung position of Fig. 2a sinks back and the transport route 11 closes again and makes it continuous.
  • the other end of the transfer device 15 or the deflection path 25 remains firmly connected to the transport path 12.
  • the transfer device 15 is also formed on this page analog switchable.
  • FIG. 3 two parallel operating transfer devices 15a and 15b are shown side by side, which are each movable on an associated transport path 18a and 18b.
  • transport lines 18a, b circumferential conveyor belts 19a, b are provided in the longitudinal direction, with which the transport of the products 14 from and to the transfer devices 15a, b takes place.
  • the support strips 20a, b When pivoting the portion 27 and the actuating means 17, the support strips 20a, b are geometrically deformed. Thanks to their elastic bending ability they can compensate for the difference in height, the head 16 in lower and upper position experiences. It is a particular advantage that with point-related suspension of the support strips 20a, b the necessary geometric deformation over the entire or at least over larger surface areas of the support strips 20a, b can be compensated. Of course, the roller conveyor 21 and the belts 22 and 23 are moved in this process according to the height adjustment. Their spatial compensation movement is due to their flexibility constructively accessible by known means.
  • the transport sections 11 and 12 are formed flat and straight in the embodiments shown here. However, in special applications it may also be advantageous to arrange the transport sections or their sections 11a-c along spatial curves (for example in a plane curve or also with a path that overcomes a plane offset). The introduction of the head 16 is to be selected in such arrangements so that a homogeneous insertion area arises. Of course, the transport section 12 may have multiple sections if necessary.
  • the insertion region for the flat products in the region of the head 16 instead of a hinged stretch section can also take place in a closable opening region between the stretch sections 11a and 11b.
  • the intermediate element can be pushed away.
  • This solution is advantageous if the elevation of the section 11b (see FIG. Fig. 2 ) could cause collisions with overlying components. Again, the release takes place at the insertion only by a head 16 actuated drive.
  • the products described are transported and transferred in the form of dandruff with the described arrangement, it can also be used in suitable operation to densify the scale flow either by shortening the distance between successive products or by extending the same distance apart.
  • Such a change in the scale current density is achieved in that the transport speed of the scale before and after the transfer between two routes is chosen differently: To stretch the scale, the transport speed after the transfer is higher, for upsetting it is lower. By turning the scale in the transfer device 15a, b can be ensured that the foremost product in the scale always comes to lie lowermost.
