4 Claims. (Cl. lOl-415.1)
This invention relates to improvements in rotary webfed printing presses, and more particularly, to improvements concerning the adapting of the impression cylinder of the press to accommodate webs of different thicknesses and the protecting of the surfaces of the impression cylinder from wear or other damage. The invention is especially useful in conjunction with presses for offset printing but may also be used with advantage in conjunction with presses adapted for letter-press work.
In offset printing, for instance, the web is passed between the peripheral surfaces of the so-called impression cylinder and a rotating offset blanket to which the ink impression has been applied by the printing plate and which is wrapped around the peripheral surface of a blanket cylinder and applies the ink impression to the web.
For superior printing, it is essential that the contact betwen the web and the blanket be uniform and nicely adjusted. This contact will depend upon the spacing of the peripheral surface of the impression cylinder from that of the blanket and also upon the thickness of the web.
Customarily, at each end of the impression cylinder and of the blanket cylinder there is provideda so-called bearer ring extending longitudinally from the working surface of the cylinder and of slightly greater diameters than those of the respective cylinder. Because of their greater diameters, these bearer rings determine the minimum spacing between the peripheral surfaces of the impression cylinder and blanket cylinder, respectively, thus providing space between the peripheries to allow for the thickness of the blanket and the thickness of the web.
Where changes in the thickness of the web are contemplated, means must be provided for varying the spacing between the peripheral surface of the impression cylinder and that of the blanket. Also,'should the peripheral surface of the impression cylinder be subjected to wear, which would tend to increase the spacing between its pe. riphery and that of the blanket,`means must be provided for readjusting the periphery of the impression cylinder with respect to that of the blanket.
To meet these conditions, it has been proposed to change the so-called travel line on the impression cylinder by covering the peripheral surface ofthe cylinder with a thin metal sheet or plate which is replaceable from time toy time as required, either` because of wear orbecause of a contemplated change in web thickness. y
The present invention provides improved and effective means for securing such plates to the impression cylinder whereby the plates can be readily removed and replaced by plates of like or different thickness as required.
This means for securing the plate to the impression cylinder will sometimes be referred to herein as a lock-up. In presses employing an impression cylinder of relatively small diameter, a single lock-up will usually sutlice. However, in modern multicolor presses, where impression cylinders of relatively large diameter are used, the surfaces of the impression cylinder may be covered by a plurality of separate sheets, necessitating the use of an equal number of lock-ups, as hereinafter more fully described.
The invention will be further described and illustrated with reference to the accompanying drawings which represent conventionally and somewhat diagrammatically, a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention in conjunction with an impression cylinder employing four separate lock-ups, and of which Fig. l is a diagrammatic end view of the impression cylinder and a cooperating blanket cylinder, the impression cylinder being partly broken away to indicate the positions of the lock-up assemblies and the plates secured to the cylinder,
Fig. 2 is an enlarged end view of the lock-up assembly showing a portion of the cylinder structure,
Fig. 3 is a side view of the lock-up along the line 33 of Fig. 2, and
Fig. 4 is a further enlarged side view of means for fastening the end of one of the plates in the lock-up. In Fig. l, the impression cylinder is represented at l and a blanket cylinder at 2. There may, of course, be a plurality of blanket cylinders, particularly in multi-color printing. The spacing between periphery 3 of the irnpression cylinder and periphery 4 of the blanket cylinder is determined by the outside diameters of the bearer rings 5 and 6. The difference between the diameters of the `bearer rings and of the cylinders is usually quite small but has been exaggerated in the drawings for clarity.
In the periphery of the impression cylinder, there is provided one or more narrow longitudinal slots 7 adapted to receive the ends of a plate or plates 8. Where more ythan one plate is to be used, these slots may be evenly spaced about the circumference of the cylinder, for instance, where each quadrant of the cylinder is to bek covered by a separate plate, four slots will be provided spaced apart and a separate lock-up assembly will be provided beneath each slot.
Positioned within the cylinder beneath slot 7, are two jaw-like members 9 extending the entire length of the slot and pivoted about points 10. At their upper ends, these jaws are tapered toward each other to a rigid edge to permit their projecting through the slot a distance just short of the periphery of the cylinder, say about .03 inch. These jaws 9 and their pivot points 1t) should be of sufliciently rigid structure to prevent their distortion under severe strain occasioned by the tightening of the plate about the cylinder.
The pivot points 10 are rigidly supported by the cylini der structure. In the apparatus shown, the respective jaws are pivoted on rigid pins 11 projecting into eachend of the jaw and supported by an inner portion of the bearer ring forming the end structure 12 of the cylinder.
The lower end of each jaw is provided with a lug 13 to which there is fastened, by means of a pin 14, one end of a turn buckle 15. The other end of the turn buckle is fastened by means of pin 16 to the rigid structure of the cylinder indicated at 17. L.,
Each end of the plate to be fastened to the cylinder is bent at a substantially 90 angle, as shown in Fig. 2, so as to project inwardly through theslot` 7 and a rela.
tively heavy gauge metal strip 18, of a lengthequal to the width of the sheet, is secured to each end of the sheet, as by welding.
Uniformly spaced along the length of the strip 18, there is provided a number of holes 20 so spaced and of such size as to coincide with, and fit over, the rotatably mounted locking posts 21.
These locking posts 21 are spaced at intervals along the jaw, for instance on about 6 inch centers, and are nicelyr rotatably fitted into holes bored into the face of the jaw and held therein against longitudinal movement by snap rings 22. The outward extension of the locking posts is eccentrically positioned with respect to the aXis 3 of rotation ofthe portion fitting into the jaw and is provided with a lip 23;
The inner end of each locking-post is secured to a spur gear 24, each being adapted to engage,l a-ndto` be turnedy by a rack 25 'extending longitudinally through the jaw over substantially the length thereof. By moving the rack in a longitudinal direction, each locking-post isl turned simultaneously either to the lockedor unlocked positions.
Longitudinal movement of the rack may be effected in any suitable manner. A particularly advantageous means for effecting such longitudinal movement is by a rotatable shaft 26 threaded into an outer end of .the rack and held against longitudinal movement` by shoulders127. The outer end of the shaft is adapted at 28 to be turned by means of a wrench or the like, thereby movingL the rack longitudinally and causing the locking poststo rotate.
In order to simplify the fabrication of the jaws, especially with respect to providing a way for the rack Z5, the jaws are with advantage made of two parts joined together at line 29, the lower section of the jaw being secured to the upper section by screws 30.
In placing the plates on` the cylinder, thev jaws will be moved by means of the turn buckles, which are readily accessible from the end of the cylinder throughr openings 31,-.to a position in which their outer ends are spaced apart a maximum distance. An end of the plate, prebent as shown, and secured tostrip 1S, is inserted through slot 7 and the holes` in the strip 18 are slipped over the corresponding locking posts 21, the latter having.` been turned to the unlocked position.
Where a single plate is used, the; other endof' the; plate' is then secured to the other jaw and theends ofthe plate are then pulled tightly over the outer end of the jaw by turning the eccentrically positioned locking-posts, as previously described, to the locked position..
Having secured both ends of the plate to respective jaws, the plate is tightly drawn about the periphery. of the cylinder by forcing the otuer ends ofthe jawstogether by means of the turn buckles, leaving a minimum gap l at the seam of the plate.
By means of the lock-up assembly of my invention, the plates may be readily and quickly changed and' the new platesl accurately adjusted to the periphery of the cylinder, all by means readily accessible to the operator.
The plates can be drawn tightly and smoothly about thecylinder and about the edges of the slotsy with a minimum loss of printing area at the seams. Lock-up slots of an overall width of the order of 1/2 inch havev been found adequate in most instances.
It will be apparent to the skilled mechanic, in view of my foregoing disclosure, that various means equivalent to those shown may be employed for actuating the locking-posts and the jaws without departing from the` spirit of my invention, all such equivalents being within the` scope of my invention as dened by the appended claims.
