Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for supplying printed products, such as newspapers, magazines, brochures and the like, as well as supplements to such printed products, to a delivery point according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the present invention has for its object to provide a device of the type mentioned, with which it is possible, despite the limited supply capacity of the source downstream Delivery point to be able to continuously supply printed products.
- the transport members transporting these printed products are temporarily stored in the buffer section of the conveyor arrangement which conveys the printed products from the source to the delivery point. The latter are then fed from this buffer section to the delivery point. After the source is exhausted and either replaced with a new source or refilled with new printed products, the continuous supply of printed products to the delivery point can be continued from the buffer line during this time, the length of the buffer line then being reduced, because yes during the replacement or refilling of the source, no new transport organs loaded with printed products can reach the buffer line.
- FIG. 1 shows a device for feeding printed products from a product roll to a delivery point at the time of exchanging a product roll
- 2 shows the device according to FIG. 1 shortly after the start-up of a full product roll.
- the device shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 has a delivery station 1 and a processing station 2, which are connected to one another via a conveyor arrangement 3.
- This conveyor arrangement 3 ' transports printed products 4, namely newspapers, magazines, brochures and the like, as well as supplements to such printed products, which are supplied by a source Z located in the delivery station 1, in a manner to be described in more detail below.
- the source Z is an exchangeable storage unit 5 or 5 ′, which is formed from a product roll 6, which is stored in a frame 7, which can be moved by means of a suitable transport device.
- the product roll 6 consists in a known manner in a scale formation on a winding core 8 wound printed products.
- the winding core 8 is rotatably mounted in the frame 7.
- FIG. 1 shows the state at the time when an empty storage unit 5 'is replaced by one with a full winding 6, while FIG. 2 shows the state shortly after a new storage unit 5 is started up with a full winding 6.
- the printed products 4 unwound from the roll 6 are taken over in a scale formation S by a conveyor 9, preferably a belt conveyor, and in the direction of arrow A by a Uniformization device 10 conveyed through to a transfer point 11.
- the equalization device 10 ensures, in a manner known per se, that the distance between successive printed products 4 in the scale formation S is always approximately the same and that there are no gaps in the scale formation.
- the printed products 4 are transferred to a conveyor system, generally designated 12.
- the conveyor system 12 has a number of individual, mutually independent transport members 13, which are moved in the direction of arrow B along a conveyor path 14 designed as a closed loop.
- the transport members 13 are separate from one another, ie are not coupled to one another and are independent of one another. The distance between the transport members 13 can thus change.
- the transport members 13 have controllable grippers 15 which are fastened to carriages or sleds 16. At the transfer point 11, the gripper 15 of each transport member 13 grips a printed product 4 on its leading edge.
- the conveyor section 12 has rising sections 17, 17a and falling sections 18, 18a, 18b and 18c, which alternate with one another. The movement of the transport members 13 takes place along the sloping sections 18-18c under the action of gravity. If necessary, suitable funding can also be provided.
- conveying means 19 are present, or corresponding conveying means 19a may be present, which are not shown in more detail in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- deflection wheels 20a and 20 are provided, which also have a conveying effect. This promotional effect may be sufficient for short, rising sections.
- the processing station 2 is assigned a delivery point 21 at which the printed products 4 are released by the grippers 15 of the transport members 13.
- a single-stroke device 22 which is only shown schematically, and which ensures that the transport members 13 arrive at the delivery point 21 in a certain cycle sequence, in order to ensure that the printed products 4 are transferred to the devices of the processing station 2 without any problems.
- the section of the conveyor line 12 upstream of the infeed device 22 is designed as a buffer section 23, along which the transport members 13 are stored before they are called up by means of the infeed device 22. In this buffer section 23, the transport members 13 take the smallest possible mutual distance.
- the sections 18c and 18 of the conveyor section 12 upstream of the deflection wheels 20, 22a serve as accumulation or storage sections 24, 24a, in which the transport members 13 can also be buffered or stored.
- the fact that the empty transport members 13 'are stored in the storage or storage section 24a ensures that a transport member 13' is available for each printed product 4 arriving at the transfer point 11.
- a branching point 25 with a switch, not shown is arranged in the falling section 18a.
- a branch conveyor section 26 leads from this branch point 25 to an insertion point 27, which likewise has a switch, not shown, and which is arranged downstream of the discharge point 21.
- empty transport members 13 ' ie those which do not transport printed products 4, can be discharged from the conveyor line 12.
- the discharged empty transport members 13 ' are moved along the branch conveyor line 26 to the insertion point 27, at which they can be re-introduced into the conveyor line 14 by means of the switch. That is to say, the empty transport members 13 'discharged at the branch point 25 are reunited at the insertion point 27 with the empty transport members 13' which have delivered the printed products 4 they have conveyed to the delivery point 21.
- a plug-in drum 28 In the processing station 2 there is a plug-in drum 28, only shown schematically, which is of a known type and which is driven to rotate in the counterclockwise direction.
- the insertion drum 28 has radially extending receiving compartments 29, into which the printed products 4 released at the delivery point 21 fall.
- the printed products 4 transported by the transport members 13 are folded printed sheets in the present case, and those by the grippers 15 of the transport members 13 are held at their open side edge opposite the folded edge. It goes without saying that it is also possible to collect the printed products 4 in the insertion drum 28 instead of inserting them.
- the loaded transport members 13 moved by conveying means or under the influence of gravity in the direction of arrow B from the transfer point 11 to the discharge point 21 along the buffer section 23, but also along the stowage or storage section 24, with reduction of the mutual distance temporarily buffered.
- This buffering of the transport members 13 makes it possible to continue to supply printed products 4 continuously, especially from the buffer section 23, even if the supply of printed products 4 to the transfer point 11 is interrupted, primarily from the buffer section 23.
- the length of this buffer section 23 temporarily decreases.
- the reason for an interruption in the delivery of printed products 4 to the transfer point 11 is that the source Z has a limited delivery capacity has, that is, only a limited number of printed products 4 is stored in the product roll 6.
- Fig. 1 it is shown that the storage unit 5 'is discharged, i.e. that the winding core 8 is empty.
- the last printed product still unwound from the winding core 8 is designated by 4 '.
- the empty storage unit 5 ' has to be exchanged for a new storage unit 5 with a full product roll 6, as indicated in FIG. 1.
- the conveyor system 12 continues to run so that the delivery point 21 continues to be supplied with printed products 4.
- the printed products 4 are unwound from the new product roll 6 in a scale formation and fed to the transfer point 11, as can be seen in FIG. 2.
- the first printed product unwound from the new product roll 6 is designated 4 ′′ in FIG. 2.
- a gap is formed between this printed product 4 ′′ and the last printed product 4 ′ unwound from the previous product roll, as can be seen in FIG. 2.
- the buffer section 23 is reduced during the interruption of delivery of printed products 4 to the transfer point 11, ie its length decreases.
- the product source Z again supplies printed products 4
- the buffer zone 23 is refilled, since the delivery speed of the source Z is greater than the feed speed of transport elements 13 to the delivery point 21.
- the same printed products can be stored in the new product rolls 6 introduced into the delivery station 1 as in the previously processed product roll, or else different types of printed products.
- the transport members 13 shown only schematically in Figures 1 and 2 can have any suitable training.
- the conveyor section 14 of the conveyor system 12 can also be designed such that the printed products 4 are transported hanging along the entire route.
- the conveyor system 12 can have any other suitable training. It is only important that the distance between the transport members 13 moved along the conveyor section 14 of the conveyor system 12 can be changed.
- conveyor systems can also be used in which the transport elements are connected to one another in such a way that the distance between the transport elements can be changed within certain limits, such as e.g. from EP-A-0 309 702 (and the corresponding US-A-4, 887, 809) and EP-A-0 633 212 (and the corresponding US-A-5, 503, 264).
