Definitions

  • the invention relates to an installation for feeding paper reels to a reel stand, as used in reel cellars of printing works, and a method for its operation.
  • WO 98/12 131 A1 discloses an installation of the generic type which is evidently intended for the reel cellar of an offset printing works having a number of reel stands in succession in the longitudinal direction.
  • a feed track and a removal track parallel thereto whose distance from the feed track is smaller than the maximum diameter of the reels used and which is therefore suitable only for removing residual reels, leads to the feed side of the pit in which in each case the moving platform coordinated with a reel stand is displaceable.
  • stub tracks Arranged on the opposite side, as a continuation of said tracks, are stub tracks, but, owing to the small distance, only one of them can be used as a storage track and temporarily receives a carriage with an unpacked reel provided with an adhesion point.
  • the storage capacity in the immediate vicinity of the reel stand is therefore only small and is not sufficient for receiving all reels required for a print run.
  • a complicated separate intermediate store with a feed means which is likewise complicated is therefore provided for the row of reel stands.
  • the installation formed according to the invention is intended in particular for gravure printing. It offers the possibility of setting up, in the immediate vicinity of the reel stand, an intermediate store which can be operated with very little effort by means of the moving platform and the carriage, i.e. parts which are in any case necessary.
  • the intermediate store permits breaks for the personnel who are responsible for supplying the reel stand with paper reels.
  • FIG. 1 shows a plan view of an installation according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 shows a section along II-II in FIG. 1 .
  • the gravure printing installation according to the invention which is shown in figures comprises two symmetrically arranged unwinding devices 1 a , 1 b .
  • a centrally arranged straight supply track 2 which follows a longitudinal direction and passes a ramp 3 where a clamp stacker 4 sets down paper reels 5 whose diameter as a rule corresponds to a maximum diameter of, for example, 1.5 m and in any case does not exceed it.
  • a plurality of paper reels may be stored side by side on the ramp 3 , the lowermost of which, if required, is rolled onto a carriage 6 on the supply track 2 .
  • the supply track 2 leads via an unpacking station 7 to a first turntable 8 and via this to a second turntable 9 , where in each case feed tracks 10 , 11 which lead to the unwinding devices 1 a , 1 b branch off, following a transverse direction at right angles to the longitudinal direction.
  • the unwinding device 1 a the further unwinding device 1 b is a mirror image and is therefore not described separately below—comprises a reel stand 12 having two unwinding axes extending in the transverse direction.
  • a crane 13 which serves for disposing of reel cores is arranged just in front of the reel stand 12 .
  • a rectangular pit 14 which reaches below the reel stand 12 and extends in the longitudinal direction and in which a moving platform 15 is arranged so as to be displaceable in the longitudinal direction. It carries a track section 16 which is continuous in the transverse direction.
  • the two feed tracks 10 , 11 abut at right angles the longitudinal edge of the pit 14 , on its feed side facing the supply track 2 .
  • a plurality of storage tracks 17 which, in the example, are in the form of three stub tracks extending in the transverse direction and emanating from the longitudinal edge of the pit 14 , one of which storage tracks is present between the feed track 10 and the reel stand 12 and the remaining are present between the two feed tracks 10 , 11 .
  • Arranged on the opposite side of the pit 14 are a further five storage tracks 17 in the form of stub tracks emanating from the corresponding longitudinal edge, each of which storage tracks is aligned with one of the feed tracks 10 , 11 or with one of the three storage tracks 17 on the feed side.
  • a carriage 6 with an unpacked paper reel 5 provided with an adhesion point can be parked on each of the storage tracks 17 .
  • each of the storage tracks 17 is laterally separated from each adjacent storage track or feed track, in each case from middle to middle by a distance which is greater than the maximum diameter, so that mutual hindrance is ruled out.
  • the unwinding devices 1 a,b For constantly supplying the unwinding devices 1 a,b with paper reels 5 , e.g., six paper reels are prepared for each of the reel stands 1 a,b , before a break of two hours during work, and are clamped in the reel stand or temporarily stored.
  • the paper reel 5 is transferred in each case from a main store by means of the clamp stacker 4 to the ramp 3 , where it rolls downwards towards the supply track 2 .
  • a plurality of paper reels is present side by side on the ramp 3 , the lowermost being prevented by a retaining member from rolling off the ramp 3 .
  • a carriage 6 For transporting a reel further, a carriage 6 is moved to the ramp 3 and the retaining member is briefly deactivated so that the lowermost paper reel rolls onto the carriage 6 . This is then moved to the unpacking station 7 , where the paper reel is raised and is manually unpacked and provided with an adhesion point.
  • the carriage with the paper reel then travels, for example, directly via the turntable 8 to the turntable 9 , which is then turned, for example, 90° to the left, whereupon the carriage travels via the feed track 10 to the pit 14 and onto the moving platform 15 , which is positioned so that its track section 16 is aligned with the feed track 10 .
  • the moving platform 15 is moved to the reel stand 12 and the paper reel 5 is mounted or, if the reel stand 12 is already equipped, the carriage is moved further onto the storage track 17 aligned with the feed track 10 , or the moving platform 15 is first moved so that it is aligned with one of the other storage tracks 17 and then the carriage 6 with the paper reel 5 is moved onto it.
  • the moving platform 15 is then moved back to its starting position.
  • the reel stand 12 can be continuously provided with fresh paper reels by moving the moving platform 15 to a position in which it is aligned with two storage tracks 17 opposite one another or with one of the feed tracks 10 , 11 and the respective opposite storage track 17 and moving a carriage 6 with a paper reel 5 from one of the tracks onto the moving platform 15 , whereupon it is moved under the reel stand 12 where the paper reel 5 is picked up directly from the carriage 6 by the empty unwinding axis—the reel core was removed beforehand by means of the crane 13 . It is also possible to remove a residual roll 5 ′, i.e.
  • a partly used-up reel from the reel stand 12 by bringing a carriage 6 with a residual reel base under the unwinding axis of the reel stand 12 and placing the residual reel on the latter.
  • the carriage 6 with the residual reel base 18 and the residual reel 5 ′ can then ( FIG. 2 ) be parked on one of the storage tracks 17 or one of the feed tracks 10 , 11 .
  • the pit can generally be relatively long so that there is space for many storage tracks.
  • the storage tracks may also be longer so that they can receive more than one carriage. This, too, is a question of space.
