Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour le découpage de livres en vue de séparer les pages en papier des couvertures constituées par des matériaux divers. The present invention relates to a device for cutting books in order to separate paper pages from covers made of various materials.
La consommation sans cesse croissante de papier, aussi bien dans le domaine de l'édition que de l'informatique, ou de la publicité, donne à la récupération de ce matériau une importance grandissante, et de nombreux procédés permettant le recyclage du vieux papier ont été mis au point. La récupération du papier constituant les livres pose toutefois un problème particulier. En effet, un livre comporte des pages intérieures en papier, et une couverture en matériaux variés : carton, cuir, matière plastique, tissu, etc.. En outre, les pages sont généralement reliées entre elles par de la colle. The constantly increasing consumption of paper, in the fields of publishing as well as IT, or advertising, gives the recovery of this material an increasing importance, and many processes allowing the recycling of old paper have been developed. The recovery of the paper making up the books, however, poses a particular problem. Indeed, a book has interior pages of paper, and a cover of various materials: cardboard, leather, plastic, fabric, etc. In addition, the pages are generally linked together by glue.
De ce fait, il n'est pas possible de simplement déchiqueter les livres mis au rebut, si l'on souhaite les utiliser pour la fabrication de papier recyclé, la colle et les matériaux de couverture introduisant des substances indésirables. I1 est par conséquent nécessaire de séparer les pages en papier d'une part, la couverture et le talon de colle d'autre part, avant le recyclage du papier. Therefore, it is not possible to simply shred discarded books, if one wishes to use them for the manufacture of recycled paper, glue and covering materials introducing undesirable substances. It is therefore necessary to separate the paper pages on the one hand, the cover and the glue stub on the other hand, before recycling the paper.
Le procédé actuel consiste à trancher le talon des livres et la couverture à l'aide d'un massicot à trois lames. Un tel procédé permet effectivement de séparer les pages en papier du talon de colle et de la couverture. Toutefois, après tranchage, tous les éléments se retrouvent mélangés et une main d'oeuvre très nombreuse est nécessaire pour effectuer un tri manuel en vue d'obtenir un matériau recyclable. Compte-tenu du coût d'une telle opération, les matériaux sont difficiles à valoriser. The current process consists of slicing the heel of the books and the cover using a three-blade cutter. Such a process effectively makes it possible to separate the paper pages from the glue stub and from the cover. However, after slicing, all the elements are mixed and a very large workforce is necessary to perform manual sorting in order to obtain a recyclable material. Given the cost of such an operation, the materials are difficult to recover.
La présente invention a pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients en fournissant un dispositif pour le découpage de livres qui non seulement découpe les livres, mais effectue un tri entre les pages en papier et les autres parties. The present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks by providing a device for cutting books which not only cuts the books, but performs a sorting between the paper pages and the other parts.
A cet effet, la présente invention a pour objet un dispositif pour le découpage de livres, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte
- un organe de coupe placé dans un plan horizontal;
- des moyens pour maintenir séparément chaque livre à découper dans un plan vertical, le talon du livre étant orienté vers le bas et situé à un niveau légèrement inférieur au plan de l'organe de coupe;
- des moyens pour amener chaque livre au contact de l'or- gane de coupe.To this end, the present invention relates to a device for cutting books, characterized in that it comprises
- a cutting member placed in a horizontal plane;
- Means for holding each book to be cut separately in a vertical plane, the heel of the book being oriented downwards and situated at a level slightly below the plane of the cutting member;
means for bringing each book into contact with the cutting member.
- des moyens pour libérer sélectivement les pages intérieures et les couvertures. - means for selectively releasing the interior pages and covers.
Les moyens pour maintenir un livre peuvent être constitués par un tiroir qui comporte un fond horizontal et deux plaques verticales, l'une des plaques pouvant être écartée ou rapprochée de l'autre, un espace étant ménagé entre le bord inférieur des plaques verticales et le fond horizontal. The means for holding a book can be constituted by a drawer which has a horizontal bottom and two vertical plates, one of the plates being able to be separated or brought closer to the other, a space being created between the lower edge of the vertical plates and the horizontal background.
De préférence, l'une des plaques est fixe, et le déplacement de l'autre est commandé par deux vérins pneumatiques. Preferably, one of the plates is fixed, and the movement of the other is controlled by two pneumatic cylinders.
Le dispositif comporte avantageusement plusieurs tiroirs répartis régulièrement sur un support mobile capable d'amener successivement chacun d'eux au contact de l'organe de coupe fixe. The device advantageously comprises several drawers distributed regularly on a movable support capable of bringing each of them successively into contact with the fixed cutting member.
Un tel support mobile particulièrement préféré est constitué par un plateau ayant la forme d'un polygone régulier monté sur un axe vertical autour duquel il tourne, un tiroir étant fixé sur chaque côté dudit polygone. De préférence, le polygone a de 3 à 10 côtés. Un hexagone est particulièrement préféré. Such a particularly preferred mobile support consists of a plate having the shape of a regular polygon mounted on a vertical axis around which it rotates, a drawer being fixed on each side of said polygon. Preferably, the polygon has 3 to 10 sides. A hexagon is particularly preferred.
L'organe de coupe peut être une scie circulaire placée horizontalement sur le trajet des tiroirs lorsque ceux-ci sont déplacés. L'organe de coupe peut également être constitué par un jet d'eau ou un faisceau laser. The cutting member can be a circular saw placed horizontally in the path of the drawers when the latter are moved. The cutting member can also consist of a water jet or a laser beam.
Les moyens pour libérer sélectivement les pages intérieures et la couverture après découpage du talon de colle peuvent être constitués par chaque paire de plaques verticales, si ces plaques sont creuses, reliées à un venturi qui permet de les mettre en dépression, et si les faces en regard des deux plaques d'une paire comportent une ouverture munie d'un joint. The means for selectively releasing the interior pages and the cover after cutting the glue bead can be constituted by each pair of vertical plates, if these plates are hollow, connected to a venturi which makes it possible to put them in depression, and if the faces in view of the two plates of a pair have an opening provided with a seal.
Lorsque le talon d'un livre maintenu par les deux plaques rapprochées a été coupé, lesdites plaques sont mises en dépression, puis écartées. Les pages intérieures du livre qui ne sont plus reliées à la couverture tombent Mais chaque partie de la couverture reste collée à la plaque adjacente par aspiration. When the heel of a book held by the two closely spaced plates has been cut, said plates are placed in depression, then discarded. The inside pages of the book which are no longer connected to the cover fall off, but each part of the cover remains glued to the adjacent plate by suction.
Pour faire tomber les parties de couverture, il suffit de remettre les plaques à la pression atmosphérique ou à une pression légèrement supérieure.To drop the cover parts, simply return the plates to atmospheric pressure or to a slightly higher pressure.
La présente invention sera expliquée plus en détail par référence aux figures jointes, qui illustrent de manière non limitative un exemple de réalisation du dispositif selon l'invention. The present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the appended figures, which illustrate, without limitation, an embodiment of the device according to the invention.
La figure 1 représente une vue schématique par-dessus du dispositif selon l'invention. Figure 1 shows a schematic view over the device according to the invention.
La figure 2 représente une vue suivant A de la figure 1. FIG. 2 represents a view along A of FIG. 1.
La figure 3 représente une vue à l'oblique par-dessus suivant B de la figure 1. FIG. 3 represents an oblique view from above along B of FIG. 1.
Le dispositif selon l'invention tel que représenté sur les figures 1 à 3 comporte un plateau (1) de forme hexagonale porté par un axe central (2) autour duquel il peut tourner. Dans la suite, un élément présent sur chacune des faces du plateau sera désigné par le même repère. Sur les 'figures, ce repère comportera en indice le numéro de la face. Sur chacune des faces du plateau est fixé un tiroir comportant une plaque creuse verticale (3) fixe montée sur la face du plateau, une plaque creuse mobile (4) et une plaque de fond horizontale (10) située à une faible distance sous le bord inférieur des plaques verticales. The device according to the invention as shown in Figures 1 to 3 comprises a plate (1) of hexagonal shape carried by a central axis (2) around which it can rotate. In the following, an element present on each of the faces of the plate will be designated by the same reference. On the 'figures, this reference will include in index the number of the face. On each side of the tray is fixed a drawer comprising a vertical hollow plate (3) fixed mounted on the face of the tray, a movable hollow plate (4) and a horizontal bottom plate (10) located a short distance below the edge lower vertical plates.
Chaque plaque mobile (4) est reliée à la plaque fixe (3) correspondante par des entretoises (5) et (6). Chaque plaque mobile (4) est munie d'une paire de vérins (7) à double effet qui permettent de la rapprocher ou de l'écarter de la plaque fixe (3).Each movable plate (4) is connected to the corresponding fixed plate (3) by spacers (5) and (6). Each movable plate (4) is provided with a pair of double-acting cylinders (7) which allow it to be brought closer or apart from the fixed plate (3).
Chaque plaque mobile (4) est munie sur sa face externe, de moyens (8) permettant sa mise sous dépression, et sur sa face interne, d'une ouverture non représentée (9) munie d'un joint. Each movable plate (4) is provided on its outer face with means (8) enabling it to be placed under vacuum, and on its inner face, with an opening (not shown) (9) provided with a seal.
De même, chaque plaque fixe (3) peut être mise sous dépression et comporte sur sa face interne une ouverture munie d'un joint.Similarly, each fixed plate (3) can be placed under vacuum and has on its internal face an opening provided with a seal.
Le plateau tournant (1) peut être mu par un moteur à variateur de vitesse qui entraîne l'axe (2) par une chaîne. Sur cet axe (2) sont fixées deux cames (non représentées), la came supérieure commandant l'ouverture et la fermeture des vérins (7), la came inférieure commandant la mise sous vide des plaques (3) et (4). The turntable (1) can be driven by a variable speed drive motor which drives the axis (2) by a chain. On this axis (2) are fixed two cams (not shown), the upper cam controlling the opening and closing of the jacks (7), the lower cam controlling the evacuation of the plates (3) and (4).
Une scie (11) portée par un support (15) et constituée par un disque horizontal est située à un niveau compris entre le bord inférieur des plaques (3) et (4) et la plaque horizontale (10). Une buse d'aspiration (non représentée) est située à proximité de la scie pour récupérer les copeaux et les poussières de papier. A saw (11) carried by a support (15) and constituted by a horizontal disc is located at a level between the lower edge of the plates (3) and (4) and the horizontal plate (10). A suction nozzle (not shown) is located near the saw to collect paper shavings and dust.
Un tapis roulant (12), situé au-dessus du plateau (1), apporte les livres à découper au niveau du tiroir immédiatement en amont de la scie. Un tapis roulant (13) est situé sous le plateau et passe sous la scie. Un second tapis roulant (14) est situé sous le plateau (1). A conveyor belt (12), located above the plate (1), brings the books to be cut to the level of the drawer immediately upstream of the saw. A conveyor belt (13) is located under the platform and passes under the saw. A second conveyor belt (14) is located under the tray (1).
Le fonctionnement du dispositif selon l'invention sera expliqué ci-dessous. The operation of the device according to the invention will be explained below.
Le dispositif tourne dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre. The device rotates clockwise.
La face du plateau se trouvant immédiatement en amont de la scie (11) et en face de l'opérateur à l'instant to est désignée sur la figure 1 par face n 1, et tous les éléments se rapportant à cette face comportent l'indice 1 à la suite du nombre qui les repère. L'opérateur est installé immédiatement en amont de la scie. The face of the plate located immediately upstream of the saw (11) and in front of the operator at the instant to is designated in FIG. 1 by face n 1, and all the elements relating to this face include the index 1 following the number which identifies them. The operator is installed immediately upstream of the saw.
A l'instant to, l'opérateur saisit un livre (16) arrivant à sa portée par le tapis (12) et l'insère talon vers le bas dans le tiroir porté par la face n 1 arrivant ouvert devant lui à cet instant. La came supérieure portée par l'axe commande aussitôt le rapprochement des plaques (31) et (41) par les vérins (71) pour que le livre soit maintenu. Le plateau tournant amène le livre ainsi maintenu vers la scie (11) qui coupe le talon du livre. Celui-ci tombe sur le tapis roulant (13). La came supérieure commande alors l'ouverture du tiroir par les vérins (71), c'est-à-dire le déplacement de la plaque (41), de sorte que les pages intérieures tombent lorsque le tiroir passe au-dessus du tapis roulant (14). At the instant to, the operator grabs a book (16) arriving at his reach by the mat (12) and inserts his heel downwards in the drawer carried by the face n 1 arriving open in front of him at this instant. The upper cam carried by the axis immediately controls the bringing together of the plates (31) and (41) by the jacks (71) so that the book is maintained. The turntable brings the book thus held towards the saw (11) which cuts the heel of the book. It falls on the treadmill (13). The upper cam then controls the opening of the drawer by the jacks (71), that is to say the movement of the plate (41), so that the inner pages fall when the drawer passes over the conveyor belt (14).
Les couvertures du livre restent collées contre les plaques du fait de la dépression existant à l'intérieur de chacune des plaques. Ensuite, le plateau continuant de tourner, la came inférieure de l'arbre commande la coupure de la dépression dans les plaques au moment où le tiroir repasse au-dessus du tapis roulant (13) ; les couvertures tombent et le tiroir arrive à nouveau devant l'opérateur vide et en position ouverte. Ainsi, pendant un tour complet du plateau, on peut charger six livres et récupérer le papier correspondant sur le tapis roulant (14), les talons de colle et les couvertures sur le tapis (13). The covers of the book remain glued against the plates due to the depression existing inside each of the plates. Then, the plate continuing to rotate, the lower shaft cam controls the cut-off of the vacuum in the plates when the drawer passes over the conveyor belt (13); the covers fall off and the drawer again arrives in front of the empty operator and in the open position. Thus, during a complete turn of the tray, one can load six books and recover the corresponding paper on the conveyor belt (14), the glue heels and the covers on the carpet (13).
Le dispositif selon l'invention, décrit ci-dessus, comporte six tiroirs de chargement des livres, montés sur un plateau hexagonal. Bien entendu, un nombre différent de tiroirs peut être utilisé, montés sur un support autre qu'un plateau, à condition que le circuit décrit par les tiroirs forme une boucle. La vitesse de déplacement des tiroirs, l'emplacement des différents tapis roulants et l'étalement dans le temps des différentes commandes seront adaptés pour que chaque opération du cycle soit effectué à l'endroit approprié de la boucle. The device according to the invention, described above, comprises six drawers for loading books, mounted on a hexagonal plate. Of course, a different number of drawers can be used, mounted on a support other than a tray, provided that the circuit described by the drawers forms a loop. The speed of movement of the drawers, the location of the different treadmills and the spread over time of the different controls will be adapted so that each cycle operation is performed at the appropriate location on the loop.
