Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sword folder with the preamble features of claim 1 and a method for seam preparation according to claim 7.
  • Pocket folding machines and Schwertfalzmaschinen are known from the prior art.
  • the combination of pocket folding machines with Schwertfalzmaschinen is common as Kombifalzmaschine.
  • parallel folds are folded in pocket folders and cross breaks in the subsequent knife folders.
  • the sheet passes through at least the following stations in the feed-through direction of the combination folding machine: feeder, transfer table, pocket folder, knife folder, delivery arm.
  • a respective pocket folder consists of a folding pocket and three folding rollers, which are arranged in two pairs of folding rollers.
  • From the DE 29 40 360 A1 is a single sword folding machine for folding of printed and pre-folded sheet known.
  • Combination folding machines combine pocket folders and knife folders. Here are folded in a first folding station in Taschenfalztechniken parallel breaks and in a subsequent folding station in Schwertfalztechniken cross breaks.
  • the DE 31 47 064 A1 and the DE 10 2006 055 301 A1 show Kombifalzmaschinen with a plurality of Taschenfalzwerken and nachranging arranged Schwertfalzwerken.
  • the EP 1 475 334 A1 shows a folding machine with a pair of knife shafts.
  • the knife shafts are mounted parallel to each other between two spaced side walls of the folding machine.
  • the folding rollers of a folding unit knife shaft pairs are upstream or downstream.
  • grooves and grooves are used synonymously. What is meant is a material weakening of the sheet material by removing material, thereby reducing the cross-section.
  • the knife shafts are usually knife shaft pairs, in which one blade shaft are equipped with tools and the other blade shaft with counter tools.
  • the tools are mounted on tool holders, which are pushed onto the knife shafts.
  • Such preparation of sheets to be folded is required to cause material weakening at the desired positions of the fold breaks and thus to ensure that the fold breaks are actually made at the intended position. Otherwise, the position of the fold breaks may differ, especially with thicker products, resulting in lower quality folded products.
  • the US 2,775,448 A discloses a sword folder according to the preamble of claim 1, wherein lines of weakness are used in the fold areas of thicker folded products.
  • a disadvantage of the use of knife shafts is on the one hand their complex adjustment to the correct position. When changing jobs it may be necessary to remove the knife shafts from the folding machines in order to be able to push additional knife holders onto the knife shafts.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a blade folder and to describe a method for seam preparation, wherein a precise fold breakage is made possible even with thick products and the problems of the prior art are at least reduced.
  • the Schwertfalzwerk invention is used for folding arcuate elements and is suitable for use in a Bogenfalzmaschine.
  • the sword folder has a transport device, a leading edge stop, a folding blade and a folding roller pair, wherein the arcuate element of the transport device in the transport direction under the folding blade and against the leading edge stop is transportable.
  • the folding blade is not designed as a parallel folding sword, but - as is common - oriented parallel to the sheet transport direction. In the interaction of folding blade and folding rollers, the formation of a fold break is substantially parallel to the sheet transport direction in the arcuate element.
  • a notching device with a notching element is provided in the region of the leading edge stop for introducing a notch into the front edge of the arcuate element.
  • This notch alternatively also to be described as a small backcut, or small parting cut, has the advantage that the forces required for the formation of folds in the arched element are substantially reduced by the folding blade and the folding roller pair. In addition, unwanted wrinkling in the area of the back of the folded sheet member is greatly reduced. The introduction of the notch can thus reduce both the burden of the folding blade and its drive and thus their wear and significantly increase the quality of the seam breakage.
  • the notched element is designed as a circular blade.
  • the notch element can also be designed as a double-circle knife, ie as a parallel arrangement of two circular knives.
  • the distance between be adjustable both circular knives of the double circle knife. The introduction of two notches through the double circular blade into the arcuate element could further reduce unwanted wrinkling at the ridge of the folded arcuate element.
  • the notching device has a drive for the circular blade or the double circular blade, which is designed in particular as an electric motor.
  • the notching device has an actuator for moving the notching element from a waiting position into an operative position and vice versa, wherein the actuator is designed in particular as a pneumatic cylinder.
  • the actuator is designed in particular as a pneumatic cylinder.
  • a detector for determining the arrival of the arcuate elements is provided on the leading edge stop.
  • the sword folder has a control unit, wherein at least the detector and the actuator are connected to the control unit via data lines, so that a measuring pulse of the detector can trigger the actuator, if necessary with a time delay.
  • this performs a rotational movement at least during the retraction and during the generation of the notch.
  • the subject of the present invention is also a sheet folding machine with a blade folder as described above for carrying out the method described above.
  • the arrival of the folded product 1 in the region of the leading edge stop 4 is detected by a Bogenanrobsdetektor 11 and reported to a control unit 12.
  • the control unit 12 controls an actuator 6 designed as a pneumatic cylinder, so that the circular blade 8 is pivoted from a waiting position, not shown, into its illustrated operative position.
  • the pneumatic cylinder 6 performs a lifting movement h, which pivots the circular blade 8 about the axis of rotation A.
  • the control unit 12 also controls an electric motor 5, which drives the circular blade 8 via a belt drive.
  • the rotary blade 8 can either be put into a rotational movement r only if it produces a notch 9, or can be a permanent one Perform rotational movement r. Once the notch 9 is generated, the rotary blade 8 is pivoted by the pneumatic cylinder 6 back into the waiting position.
  • the signal of the Bogenanzunftsbogendetektors 11 is also used by the control unit 12 for the control of the drive of the folding blade 111, not shown, so as to trigger the Schwerthub at the right time.
  • the Schwerthub can be done as soon as the circular blade 8 is moved from its active again in its waiting position.
  • Fig. 3 is the result of the notching process shown.
  • a small incision namely a notch 9
  • the appearance of the folded product 1 is hardly affected due to the small size of the notch 9 and this negligible disadvantage is offset by a better quality fold break at the fold line 3 by far.
