Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for automatically folding paper webs. Upstream or downstream of such folding devices using the knife folding or the buckle folding technology there are longitudinal cutting means provided, for example, for bringing an already folded sheet or a sheet to be folded subsequently into the correct width by cutting off longitudinal margins or for cutting the product into a plurality of panels.
  • folding devices such as, for example, buckle folding devices
  • tool shafts can be equipped for longitudinal cutting, but also for perforating or creasing.
  • upper and lower knives can be used which are supported fixedly against rotation on a corresponding upper and lower shaft, respectively.
  • the web can be cut in one shearing cut in the longitudinal direction, i.e. in the running direction of the web. Due to manufacturing tolerances of the cutting knives it is very difficult to bring the cutting gap between the respective upper and lower knives to zero, if possible, in order to achieve the highest cutting quality possible.
  • the object underlying the invention is, starting from the prior art as mentioned above, to form the tool shafts, such as, in particular, knife shafts, which are arranged upstream or downstream in folding devices, such that a shearing cut of the highest quality possible or a longitudinal processing comparable thereto is achieved.
  • the tool shafts such as, in particular, knife shafts, which are arranged upstream or downstream in folding devices, such that a shearing cut of the highest quality possible or a longitudinal processing comparable thereto is achieved.
  • the lower circular knife is, for example, supported in a freely movable manner on its knife shaft, while the associated upper circular knife is supported fixedly against rotation on its upper shaft.
  • the lower, rotatively driven knife shaft is connected directly or indirectly through a transmission to the upper shaft such that the upper knife shaft is given a comparably higher rotational speed. This can also be achieved by a further own drive for the upper knife shaft.
  • This higher rotational speed of the upper shaft results in the fact that the upper circular knife has a correspondingly high rotational speed. By laying the upper circular knife against the lower circular knife this high rotational speed can be transferred to the lower circular knife supported in a freely rotatable manner on its lower shaft.
  • the lower circular knife can also be laid against the upper circular knife. In this way, it is guaranteed that the two cutting knives in the cutting point with the paper web have a higher speed component in the running direction of the web than the web itself, so that a shearing cut of high quality can be produced.
  • such a pulling longitudinal cut can also be achieved by arranging a corresponding transmission between the one shaft to be rotated by any kind of drive and one of the two circular knives. It would also be possible to cause one of the two or both circular knives by means of separate drives to rotate at a higher speed as compared to the rotatively driven shaft(s).
  • each two circular knives cooperating as cutters can be supported fixedly against rotation on their tool shafts.
  • the one or the two transport rollers abutting on the paper web from above and from below, respectively are herein supported in a freely rotatable manner on the respective tool shafts.
  • the transport rollers can be rotatively driven such that they transport the paper web conveyed between them at the desired web running speed towards the folding shafts or away from the folding shafts.
  • the tool shafts can be rotatively driven at a correspondingly higher speed so that the above-mentioned shearing cut of higher quality can be produced.
  • Manufacturing a transport roller which is supported in a freely rotatable manner can be done using a simpler design and is thus economically more advantageous than a comparable design for a circular knife being supported in a freely rotatable manner.
  • the transport rollers abutting on the paper web from above or from below, respectively, can be correspondingly driven by auxiliary shafts, for example. It would also be possible to drive only one of each two transport rollers correspondingly and to pull along the other transport roller quasi through their abutment on the paper web.
  • the cutting quality of the longitudinal cut(s) to be produced in a paper web in connection with a folding device can also be increased by bringing the cutting gap between the upper and lower knives to the amount of zero, if possible.
  • a cutting gap of minimal width can be produced by pressing one of the opposing circular knives through a spring element against the mating knife.
  • the circular knife attached fixedly against rotation on a shaft is loaded by means of a spring element in the axial direction such that its revolving rim always abuts in frictional engagement on the mating knife.
  • this spring element can preferably be an elastically deformable ring, such as, in particular, a rubber ring or else a steel spring or another spring element.

Since the transmission ratios of the gears 118 to the lower retainer jaw 60 and the upper retainer jaw 60 . 4 , respectively, are identical, the two circular knives 70 , 74 also rotate with exactly the same rotational speed. This rotational speed is—as already mentioned above—higher by about 20 percent than the rotational speed of the two shafts 24 , 26 .

  • An outer retaining ring 66 . 5 is supported in a rotatable manner through a ball bearing 144 on the lower retainer jaw 51 .
  • the rubber inlay 44 is attached at the outer retaining ring 66 . 5 , as it is the case with the above-mentioned lower transport roller unit 40 .
  • the outer retaining ring 66 . 5 can be rotated relatively to the lower cutting and transport shaft 26 .
  • a sprocket 146 radially protruding from the outer retaining ring 66 . 5 is provided for rotating the outer retaining ring 66 . 5 .
  • This sprocket is in meshing engagement with a gear 148 attached fixedly against rotation on the auxiliary shaft 122 , which is supported at a constant distance to the lower shaft 26 .
  • the outer retaining ring 66 . 5 with its rubber inlay 44 can be rotatively driven at any desired speed by driving the auxiliary shaft 122 by means of the gear 148 and the sprocket 146 .
  • a comparable freely rotatable support is also provided for the upper transport roller unit 50 . 5 .
  • an outer retaining ring 156 is held through a retainer jaw 52 . 5 supported fixedly against rotation on the upper shaft 24 by means of a screw 54 through a ball bearing 56 supported on the retainer jaw 52 . 5 .
  • a sprocket 148 is formed at the outer retaining ring 156 in a way comparable to the outer retaining ring 66 . 5 of the lower transport roller unit 40 . 5 , wherein the sprocket 148 cooperates with a gear 150 .
  • the gear 150 is attached fixedly against rotation on an auxiliary shaft 120 .
  • a rubber inlay 45 is attached at the outer retaining ring 156 , as it is also the case in a comparable way with the upper transport roller unit 50 ( FIG. 1 ).
  • the outer retaining ring 156 and thus the upper rubber inlay 45 can be given rotational speed, and the same is true for the lower rubber inlay 44 through the auxiliary shaft 122 .
  • These rotational speeds are high enough for transporting the paper web 28 held with frictional engagement between the two rubber inlays 44 , 45 at the desired web running speed through the area of the cutting and transport rollers 24 , 26 .
  • This web speed is equally high in the area of the cutting and transport shafts 24 , 26 and the folding rollers ( FIG. 2 ).
  • the two circular knives 70 , 74 can be driven, in the present exemplary embodiment, at rotational speed which is higher by about 20% (percent), so that the desired shearing cut of high quality can be produced in the paper web 28 , as it has been mentioned above.
  • the rotational speed of the two circular knives 70 , 74 which is higher as compared to that of the transport shafts is achieved by corresponding rotational drives for the two cutting and transport rollers 24 , 26 , on which the respective two circular knives 70 , 74 are arranged fixedly against rotation.
