. WEB. SUPPLY ARRANGEMENT OF PRINTING PHESSES Filed' March 10, 1934 Patented Feb. 8, 1938 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE WEB SUPPLY ARRANGEMENT F PRINTING PRESSES Application March 10,
1 Claim.
The principal objects of this invention are to provide web supply arrangements for printing presses occupying less horizontal floor space than has been the case heretofore; to provide the web supply on a plurality of different levels so as to reduce the side space occupied, and to provide a press unit occupying only the lateral space necessary for the two printing couples.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will appear hereinafter.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawing which is a diagrammatic View of a printing press constructed of several units in accordance with this invention.
In the modern newspaper world there is a constant struggle between competitive papers to place their product on sale at the earliest possible moment. This makes it quite desirable that newspaper presses be situated in the crowded areas so as to have the source of supply near the point at which the majority of quick sales is made. In the crowded business centers of cities floor space is very dear and this has stimulated a condensing of printing press units so that a large number of units may be placed in a small floor space. In order to handle the rolls of paper supplied to printing presses in an efficient manner some sort of a rotatable reel is desirable and since these reels take considerable lateral space it very often occurs that where there is room enough for presses to be installed the room available for reels is insuflicient. This invention is designed to obviate this difficulty by the use of two levels for the operation and loading of reels. This permits the placing of one reel above the other and thereby furnishes the advantages of two reels in the floor space of one.
Referring to the drawing, it will be seen that a condensed press unit A is shown, carrying one 40 ink motion a above and the other 2) below the printing cylinders. This provides a unit using very little floor space, practically no more than that required for the two printing couples. Similar units B, C and D, or any other desired number,
1934, Serial No. 714,917
may be used. One or more folders F are employed for associating the sheets from the several press units.
On a floor level 01, either above or beneath the press units, are mounted two reels G and H which may be used to supply the paper web to the units B and C according to the course illustrated. Mounted on another floor e of a different floor level, above or below the floor d, are two reels J and K which can be used to supply a paper web to the units A and D. The rolls for the two reels G and H and also for the two reels J and K are supplied from trucks M on rollers L.
This is a simple and effective arrangement for supplying webs to a line of printing press units with the reels for supplying the press mounted on difi'erent floor levels, both the reels and the press units taking up a minimum of lateral space. This particularly fits the whole plant for use in crowded areas where floor space is so valuable.
It is not essential that all of the reels or any of them be placed below the press units as a similar arrangement can be made within the scope of this invention to arrange both of the floor levels for the reels above the press. However, ordinarily, it is more economical to supply the press from reels located on two floor levels below the press room level.
Having thus described my invention and the advantages thereof, I do not wish to be limited to the details herein disclosed, otherwise than as set forth in the claim, but what I claim is:
In a printing press, the combination of two printing units adjacent each other, two web supply devices, including each a magazine reel for carrying a plurality of web rolls, both located below the printing units and one below the other, means for conducting two webs from the two Web supplying devices to the two printing units, said Web supply devices being arranged in substantially vertical alignment with each other and with the printing units.
