Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a procedure and a machine for placing a band, preferably elastic, on a bookbinding cover. More specifically, the present invention also relates to a procedure and a machine for placing an elastic band on the cover of a book, notebook or diary.
  • the document ES2030520T3 discloses a machine for affixing an elastic band to a cardboard or similar surface of a folder. This is a machine that works on a surface, which already contains two perforations. The band is made to pass from one part of the surface to the other by means of suction, and is moved from one perforation to the other in the same manner. Finally, the band is passed through the second perforation by mechanical means and the suction is stopped.
  • This method has the disadvantage that the machine that performs it does so is bulky, expensive and generates maintenance problems.
  • FR2503803 discloses a method for affixing an elastic band that is performed by means of pushing, unlike the document ES2030520T3 .
  • the method comprises the steps of placing the elastic or rubber band adjacent to a hole and pushing the band through the hole using a tapered cylindrical pusher, there being a closing rivet in the conical portion of the pusher.
  • the rivet is placed in the hole, clamping the band against the walls of the hole.
  • a die part having a central hole mating with the diameter of the pusher is actuated from the side opposite to the pusher action in such a way that it deforms the rivet, thus fixing the band in place.
  • This method has the disadvantages that it is not flexible and that it leaves the end of the band free. Moreover, the rivet is aesthetically undesirable and the band can escape by slippage with use.
  • the document ES2428002T3 discloses a manual method wherein the band is placed between the cover and an intermediate cover that has a groove for receiving the band.
  • the cover and the intermediate cover are glued together.
  • the document MX2012008151A discloses a manual method wherein the band is made to pass through two holes of the cover, and once there the ends of the band are affixed to terminals of a size larger than the holes, which, since they cannot pass through the holes, prevent the band from escaping.
  • the document DE1922432A1 discloses a machine with improvements for inserting and attaching bookmarkers in a book.
  • An aim of the present invention is to disclose a method and a machine that make it possible to automate the process of placing an elastic band on a surface of cellulose material, preferably the cover of a book, notebook or diary, and that simultaneously offer lower cost and greater flexibility than the known methods and machines.
  • the present invention discloses a method for placing a band, preferably elastic, on a bookbinding cover as defined in claim 1.
  • the method comprises a step of measuring and cutting the band.
  • the method comprises a step of measuring the cover to which the band must be added, determining the length of band to be cut according to said measurement.
  • the measurement of the cover may be carried out directly (by measuring the cover directly) or indirectly (by measuring the spine or another dimension of the book, notebook or diary).
  • the method comprises a step of punching said punched holes.
  • the holes may be created at the start of the method. However, greater flexibility is achieved when the punching is carried out within the method.
  • the passage of said first and second excess portions is performed without the first and second clamps releasing the band.
  • This feature is advantageous because it simplifies the machine and possible due to the fact that said first and second excess portions are between the clamps and the respective free ends of the band, allowing the excess portions to pass freely through the holes.
  • the passage of said first and second excess portions is carried out by means of two pins that push said first and second portions. Still more preferably, both pins act simultaneously.
  • the placement of said first and second glue points is carried out by means of a single movable applicator.
  • This feature makes it possible to vary the points of application at will, for example according to the measurements of the cover.
  • the present invention allows the band to be applied to the cover of a previously bound book, notebook or diary.
  • the present invention also comprises a machine for the implementation of the method forming the subject of the present invention as defined in claim 10.
  • the machine further comprises a station for measuring and cutting the band.
  • the machine further comprises a station for measuring the cover on to which the band is to be applied, and still more preferably automatic means for varying the length of band to be cut according to the measurement of the cover. Still more preferably, the measuring station is located in a receptacle intended to receive a book, notebook or diary.
  • said station comprises a punch for creating said holes in the cover.
  • the adhesive applicator is single and movable.
  • said machine further comprises a station for feeding bookbinding products such as books, notebooks or diaries, and/or a station for placing an envelope or pocket on the cover, and/or a station for placing a loop of band on the cover.
  • the machine may comprise one or more of the following stations: printing of the cover, heat engraving of the cover, affixing of labels.
  • the machine comprises four different stations, each intended for the performance of a specific process on the cover, in this case of a previously bound diary.
  • the machine comprises:
  • the feeding station -1- receives the bound diaries in readiness for their subsequent movement to the other stations.
  • the station for placing an elastic band -2- comprises a station for measuring the cover on to which the band is to be applied, located in a receptacle that receives the diaries -100-.
  • the station comprises an elastic band measuring and cutting unit -22- for varying the length of band to be cut according to the measurement of the cover of the diary -100-.
  • a punch -23- creates two holes in the cover of the diary -100- for passing the elastic band through said holes.
  • the band is held by two clamps -27- (see Figure 2 ) that have the ability to move relative to each other. Both clamps also have the ability to move in the direction of advance of the band (see arrow in Figure 2 ), which is delivered from a feeder -21- (see Figure 3 ). Said clamps -27- do not hold the cut section of band by the endmost portions of the section, so that there is an excess portion of band between each clamp and each end of the cut band.
  • the elastic band placement station -2- comprises a system -24-for positioning the band on the cover and parallel-acting supports -251- that push the excess portions of band through the punched holes in the cover of the diary -100-.
  • the elastic band placement station -2- comprises a movable glue applicator -25-, capable of placing adhesive points at different locations on the cover.
  • a press -26- presses the excess portions of the band against the cover so that they are fixed to the diary.
  • the machine further comprises a station for placing a loop of elastic band -3- (see Figure 4 ) on the cover of, in this case, a previously bound diary.
  • This station comprises a band feeding, measuring and cutting station - 30-, which feeds a section of band, held by a clamp -32-, to two handling spatulas -31-, -33- for handling each end of the band.
  • the station for placing a loop of elastic band -3- further comprises a press -35- for pressing the band against the cover in order to attach it.
  • the station further comprises a station for placing an envelope or pocket -4- on the cover of, in this case, a previously bound diary -100- (see Figure 5 ).
  • the station comprises a feeder for envelopes -41-, which are picked up by an envelope handler -42- for their placement on the cover of the diary -100-.
  • a movable glue applicator -43- Prior to the placement of the envelope, places a trace of adhesive around the area of the cover.
  • FIG. 6 shows schematically the method applied to a previously bound diary.
  • the cover to which the band must be added is measured in order to determine the length of band to be cut according to said measurement.
  • two holes are punched in the cover of the diary.
  • the elastic band is cut to the appropriate length according to the measurement of the cover, and the band is then held by two clamps -27-.
  • a first clamp holds the band by a first point in such a way that there is a first excess portion of band between a first free end of the band and the first clamp.
  • a second clamp holds the band by a second point in such a way that there is a second excess portion of band between a second free end of the band and the second clamp.
  • the clamps -27- have the ability to move relative to each other in order to adapt to the length of the band, resulting in the ability to adapt to different sizes of diaries.
  • FIG. 7 shows schematically the method applied to a previously bound diary.
  • the band is fed into the machine, where it is measured and cut.
  • the band is held by means of a clamp while it is cut.
  • the band is fixed to the cover, beginning with one of its ends.
  • a first adhesive point is placed -600- on the cover by means of an automatic applicator, and subsequently -700- a first end of the band -2- is moved by means of a spatula -31- and placed on the first adhesive point.
  • a press presses the band against the adhesive and the cover in order to fix it in place.
  • the procedure is repeated, i.e. an adhesive point is placed -800-, a spatula -32- places the second end on the adhesive point, and a press presses the second end of the band against the adhesive and the cover.
