Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for collecting, collecting and inserting printed products according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a device for collecting folded printed products is known from EP-A-0 095 603 and the corresponding US-A-4,489,930, in which a multiplicity of saddle-shaped supports are arranged like ladder rungs on two conveyor chains running in parallel. Along the upper strand, which is effective in conveying, several feed points are connected one behind the other, at which folded printed products are placed astride the supports. At the end of the route, which is effective for conveying, the printed products which have been placed on top of one another in this way are lifted off the supports and transported away by means of a removal station.
  • EP-A-0 218 872 or the corresponding US-A-4,706,951 discloses a device for collating printed products.
  • This has a plurality of pocket-shaped receiving parts, which are arranged transversely to the direction of rotation on a rotating conveyor chain.
  • the printed products thus arranged next to one another in the receiving parts are handed over to a further processing station by opening the bottom of the receiving parts.
  • a similar device for inserting printed products is known from CH-PS 594 553.
  • This has pocket-shaped receiving parts which are arranged on a rotating traction element and which a folded printed product is introduced at a first feed point.
  • this printed product is opened by means of an opening device, so that the printed products introduced into the receiving parts at the next feed points come to rest in this opened first printed product.
  • the supply points are followed by a removal point at which the printed products inserted into one another are released by opening the bottom of the receiving parts and are fed to a further processing station.
  • the drum-like and alternately arranged saddle-shaped supports for collecting and pocket-like receptacles for collating or inserting around a horizontal axis Has printed products.
  • the printed products that are straddled or inserted into the receiving parts at feed points are shifted in the course of one revolution around the horizontal axis in the longitudinal direction of the supports or receiving parts and thus in the direction of the axis to a next feed point or to the removal point.
  • brackets In order to prevent the printed products from falling off from the supports or falling out of the receiving parts when passing through the sections of the processing path in which the supports are directed towards the bottom and the receiving parts are open towards the bottom between the feed points and between these and the removal point, in the Receiving parts arranged brackets provided.
  • the receiving parts and conditions can be permanently attached to the device.
  • the receiving parts and / or the supports of the holding arrangements can be removed. This also allows the pads to be exchanged with the receiving parts. After a short changeover time, the device can be used to collect, insert or collect printed products.
  • the supports and receiving parts are provided on a carousel-like support arrangement which can be rotated about an essentially vertical axis.
  • the feed points and the removal point are then arranged in a fixed manner in the region of the periphery of this support arrangement.
  • the receiving parts and supports are arranged alternately one behind the other.
  • the mutually facing walls of two adjacent receiving parts are advantageously covered by a support or this is flush with the walls.
  • An opening device is preferably assigned to each receiving part. This makes it possible to open folded printed products fed in the closed state, so that a next printed product fed in can be inserted into this first opened printed product.
  • a preferred embodiment the opening device is specified in claims 9-14.
  • Fig. 1 is a side view of an interrupted transport device 10 with saddle-shaped pads 12 for collecting folded printed products 14, 14 'is shown schematically.
  • the transport device 10 has two traction elements 16 (conveyor chains), which are driven in parallel and mutually parallel in the conveying direction F, of which only one is visible.
  • the traction elements 16 are fixed at the beginning and at the end of the conveyor-effective route in a known manner mounted chain wheels 18, of which at least one is driven.
  • holding arrangements 20 are fastened, on which the supports 12 running at right angles to the conveying direction F are seated. It should be noted that the holding arrangements 20 lie laterally against one another on the straight, conveyor-effective route, while they are pivoted apart in a V-shape in the region of the chain wheels 18.
  • a conveyor 24 At the beginning of the conveyor-effective route, two feeders 22, 22 'and at the end of the conveyor-effective route, a conveyor 24 is shown.

  • the traction elements 26 (conveyor chains) are guided in the area of the transport device 10 around stationary sprockets 30 and the mutual distance of the grippers 28 is essentially the same as the distance between the supports 12. It should be noted that in FIG. 1 only two feeders 22, 22 'are shown, but further feeders 22' can be provided in the part shown in broken lines.
  • Each gripper 28 of the feed conveyors 22, 22 'guided to the transport device 10' holds a printed product 14, 14 'on its trailing fold 32, seen in the feed direction Z.
  • the transport device 10 is in each case an essentially parallel to the feed direction Z, below the feed conveyor 22, 22 'arranged baffle 34 upstream, which the sliding edges of the printed products 14, 14' sliding on it each have an opening device 36 feed.
  • the opening devices 36 each have a rotatably mounted and rotating driven opening roller 38, which are provided with controllable clamps 40.
  • the leading edge of the printed products 14, 14 'sliding on the guide plate 34 is gripped by a bracket 40 and held on the outer surface of the opening roller 38.

  • the device shown in FIG. 1 functions as follows:
  • An open printed product 14 is placed astride each support 12 passing underneath the first feed conveyor 22. This printed product 14 is transported in the direction of conveyance F to the next feed conveyor 22 ', where another opened printed product 14' is straddled on this printed product 14 '. Analogously, other, not shown, can Feeders 22 'further printed products 14' are placed on the already astride superimposed printed products 14, 14 '. The printed products 14, 14 'thus collected arrive at the conveyor 24, where they are gripped by the grippers 28 and transported away together.
  • each support 12 forms a pocket-shaped receiving part 46 with the leading wall 44 of the rear support 12 seen in the conveying direction F, which is closed at the bottom by a base 48.
  • the opening device 36 is switched off and the clamps 40 are moved into their closed position resting on the opening roller 38.
  • the printed products 14, 14 ' are thus inserted with their fold 32 ahead into the receiving parts 46, where they come to the plant on the bottom 48 of the receiving parts 46 or on the opened, first introduced printing product 14.
  • a folded printed product 14 is inserted with its fold 32 in front into a receiving part 46 from the first feed conveyor 22. After the respective gripper 28 has been opened, the printed product 14 falls into the receiving part 46 until the fold 32 comes to rest on the base 48. During the transport of this printed product 14 to the next feed conveyor 22 ', this is opened by means of an opening device, not shown, so that the printed product 14' supplied by the feed conveyor 22 'is inserted into the opened printed product 14. The so inserted into each other printed products 14, 14 'are closed in the course of further transport to the conveyor 24 by means of the opening device and thus come to rest against the leading wall 42 of the receiving part 46.
  • the grippers 28 capture the printed products 14, 14 'which are raised and inserted into one another by means of the guide plate 50 and convey these away in the direction W to a next processing station. It should be noted that between the second feed conveyor 22 'and the removal conveyor 24, further feed conveyors 22' can be provided, which feed further printed products 14 ', which are inserted into the first opened printed product 14.
  • a printed product 14 is introduced into each receiving part 46 by the first feed conveyor 22.
  • This printed product 14 now comes into contact with one wall 42 or 44 in the closed state.
  • This can be achieved, for example, in that the leading wall 42 of the receiving parts 46 is inclined to the vertical at a greater angle in the region of the conveyor-effective path than the trailing wall 44, which runs almost in the vertical direction.
  • this can also be achieved with the opening device described below, for inserting printed products 14, 14 ', by applying the printed products 14 to a wall 42 or 44 without opening them.
  • the introduced from the second feeder 22 'into the receiving parts 46 printed products 14' come next to the printed products 14 to the system.
  • the thus collected printed products 14, 14 ' are in an analogous manner, as described above in connection with the insertion, detected by the conveyor 24 and carried away.
  • FIG. 3 shows a support 12 of FIG. 1 in view. It is attached to the beam-like holding arrangement 20, which sits on the traction elements 16 at its lateral end regions.
  • the traction elements 16 are formed by known link chains, which are guided in C-shaped hollow profiles 52.
  • the support 12 is provided with a recess 54 in the middle. The purpose of this is that the grippers 28 of the conveyor 24 can easily grasp the printed products 14 indicated by dash-dotted lines and placed astride the supports 12 for the transport away.
  • the supports 12 or receiving parts 46 are alternately arranged on a carousel-like support arrangement.
  • This support arrangement is driven to rotate about a vertical axis 56 in the direction of rotation U.
  • the feed conveyor 22, 22 'and the removal conveyor 24 can be arranged in the tangential direction, so that in turn printed products 14, 14' can be collected or inserted into one another with this device.
  • Figures 5 and 6 show an enlarged view of part of the transport device 10 in the region of the second feeder 22 'of Figures 2 and 1.
  • a saddle-shaped support 12 is provided, so that alternately supports 12 and receiving parts 46 form.
  • the printed products 14 fed by the first feed conveyor 22 are folded outside the middle and, on their open side edge opposite the fold 32, have an edge section 58 on one part, which protrudes from the other part.
  • the printed products 14 are fed from the feed conveyor 22 in such a way that they come to rest against the respective leading wall 42 of the receiving parts 46 and that the edge section 58 is arranged on that part of the printed products 14 which faces the respective trailing wall 44.
  • each holding arrangement 20 Arranged on each holding arrangement 20 is an opening device 60 which has a shaft 62 which is pivotably mounted on the upper end region of the holding arrangement 20, as seen in the conveying direction F, and runs at right angles to the conveying direction F.
  • a follower roller 66 is rotatably mounted on the drive lever 64, which is pulled against the guide surface of a stationary link 70 by means of a tension spring 68 which is fastened at one end to the drive lever 64 and at the other to the holding arrangement 20.
  • the drive lever 64 and thus also the shaft 62 are by means of the link 70 and the tension spring 68 from a product open position in the 64 'designated product closed position and can be transferred back.
  • the drive lever 64 is held in the open position by a stop, not shown, on the holding arrangement 20.
  • an opening lever 72 is rotatably arranged, on the free end projecting toward the top of a two-armed clamping lever 74 is pivotally mounted.
  • the opening lever 72 can thus be transferred by pivoting the shaft 62 from a product open position shown with solid lines to a dash-dot line and with 72 'designated product closed position, in which it runs approximately parallel to the wall 42.
  • the opening lever 72 in its product open position is pivoted into openings of the leading wall 44 of the support arrangement 20 arranged downstream in the direction of conveyance F, so that the opening lever 72 together with the clamping lever 74 is covered by this wall 44 or aligned with this.
  • a control arrangement 76 for the clamping lever 74 is provided in the central region of the opening lever 72. This has a bracket 78 fastened to the clamping lever 74, on which a two-armed control lever 80 is pivotably mounted. At one end of the control lever 80, a plunger 82 is articulated, which acts via a compression spring 84 on the end of this clamping lever 74 remote from the bent clamping end 86 of the clamping lever 74. A follower 88 is provided on the control lever 80 at the end remote from the tappet 82. The control lever 80 is held by the spring 90 attached to this and on the boom 78 in a rest position or in a 80 'designated clamping position stable.

  • the clamping lever 74 In the rest position of the control lever 80, the clamping lever 74 is also pivoted into its rest position, in which its clamping end 86 lies approximately in the straight extension of the opening lever 72.
  • the clamping end 86 of the clamping lever 74 pivoted clockwise abuts the opening lever 72 or the edge section 58 of the printed product 14 clamped between the opening lever 72 and the clamping end 86.
  • the opening device 60 functions as follows:
  • the holding arrangement 20 reaches the area of the first feed conveyor 22 (see FIG. 2).
  • a folded printed product 14 is inserted with the fold 32 ahead into the receiving part 46 and dropped, so that the fold 32 comes to rest on the bottom 48. Since the opening lever 72 and clamping lever 74 are covered by the wall 44, the printed product 14 can slide easily into the receiving part 46. It should be noted that the edge section 58 lies on the side of the printed product 14 facing the opening lever 72.
  • the opening lever 72 is transferred under the action of the link 70 to the follower roller 66 in the product closed position 72 ', whereby the printed product 14 is clamped between the opening lever 72 and the wall 42.
  • the follower 88 now runs onto the control link 92, which exerts a force directed downwards on it, so that the pivoting of the control lever 80 counterclockwise causes the clamping lever 74 to be moved clockwise into its clamping position.
  • the edge section 58 of the printed product 14 is now clamped between the opening lever 72 and the clamping end 86 of the clamping lever 74 (indicated by dash-dotted lines), the compression spring 84 ensuring that edge sections 58 of different thicknesses are properly clamped.
  • the opening lever 72 is pivoted back into its product-open position, which is accomplished by the following roller 66 running off the backdrop 70.
  • the part of the printed product 14 is carried along with the edge section 58 and the other part of the printed product 14 remains in contact with the wall 42, since this is inclined with respect to the vertical.
  • the printed product 14 thus opened reaches the area of the second feed conveyor 22 '(see FIG. 2), where a second printed product 14' is inserted into it.
  • the opening lever 72 is pivoted back into the product closed position in an analogous manner and the clamping lever 74 into its Moved to the rest position, whereby the printed product 14 with the inserted printed product 14 'is folded together and abuts the wall 42.
  • the opening lever 72 is pivoted back into its open position and the nested printed products 14, 14 'can be gripped by a gripper 28 of the conveyor 24 and carried away (see Fig. 2).
  • FIG. 6 shows the opening device 60 when collecting printed products 14 according to FIG. 1.
  • the opening lever 72 and the clamping lever 74 remain in their product-open or rest position.
  • the opened printed products 14, 14 'can thus be placed astride the pads 12 and fed to the conveyor 24.
  • the base 48 is preferably adjustable, so that the respective edge section 58 comes to lie in the area of the clamping lever 74.
  • the baffle 50, the backdrop 70 and the control gate 92 can be brought from an active to a non-active position or back by means of a controller depending on the processing of the printed products 14, 14 'to be carried out, so that printed products can be collected or collected with the same facility with very little effort can be inserted into each other.
  • the pads 12 and receiving parts 46 are alternately arranged one behind the other.
  • the supports 12 can be removably fastened to the holding arrangements 20, so that when the device is converted from collecting to collecting or plugging them in, they are removed and replaced by essentially V-shaped receiving parts 46.
  • the supports 12 and the receiving parts 46 are always directed upwards along the processing path along the conveyor, but these can certainly assume an inclined position with respect to the vertical direction.
  • the opening device 60 can also be used to open printed products 14 which do not have a protruding edge section 58.
  • the clamping lever 74 is then to be designed such that its clamping end 86 can pierce between the two parts of the folded printed sheets 14.
  • the printed products 14, 14 ' are placed astride the supports 12 by means of known feeders or are introduced into the receiving parts 46. It is also possible for a lower part of the wall 44 to be arranged in a rotationally fixed manner on the shaft 62 and for the clamping lever 74 to be mounted on this part of the wall 44 at its end region remote from the shaft 62.
  • the pocket-shaped receiving parts 46 can also be arranged on the holding arrangements 20, so that the mutually facing side walls 42, 44 of adjacent receiving parts 46 form a support 12 at least in the region of the processing path.
  • the opening device defined in claim 15 and described in detail above can also be used in other inserting machines with which the collection of printed products is not possible. Since in this opening device the product part to be swung away is grasped and taken along, the receiving parts can be arranged essentially upright.
