Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Such a device is known for example from GB-PS 1 568 752.
  • the section of the conveyor opening directly into the stacking shaft is arranged below the preceding section and has a practically opposite conveying direction with respect to the same.
  • the printed products reach the stacking chute with the edge that was the trailing edge on the preceding section of the conveyor.
  • This is particularly advantageous when the resulting printing products are produced in a conventional stream of shingles, in which the leading edge of the printing products is generally formed by the fold, while the opposite edge is a so-called cut edge.
  • it is thus prevented, among other things, that the more delicate edge of the printed products, namely the fold, strikes the stop rails delimiting the stacking shaft when it arrives in the stacking shaft.
  • the second conveyor is followed by a third conveyor, the conveying direction of which is parallel to that of the first conveyor and which, after counting, leads the printed products away in the same scale formation in which the printed products were fed by the first conveyor, that is to say with the leading conveyor extending at right angles to the conveying direction Edge.
  • the printed products in scale form are therefore only inclined for counting over a certain distance and then conveyed on again in the original formation.
  • FIG. 1 shows a top view of part of a conveyor 10 loading a stacking shaft.
  • This conveyor 10 consists of two sections 11, 12, only the end of section 11 and only the beginning of section 12 being shown.
  • Section 11 consists of an apron conveyor 13, on which printed products - here newspapers 15 - are conveyed in a freely lying scale stream in the direction of arrow 14.
  • the conveying direction 14 is here at right angles to the leading and trailing edges of the newspapers 15.
  • the section 12 adjoining the end of the section 11 likewise has an apron conveyor 16, the conveying direction 17 of which is at an angle with respect to the conveying direction 14 of the section 11 - here for example about 45 ° - is deflected.
  • the newspapers 15 transferred to section 12 are therefore, as shown, in turn conveyed in a stream of shingles, but their position is rotated by 45 ° with respect to the conveying direction 17 now prevailing, so that the section 12 each form a corner the leading end of a newspaper 15.
  • the conveying speed in the conveying direction 17 expediently has a component which corresponds to the direction and size of the speed in the conveying direction 14.
  • the transition of the newspapers from section 11 to section 12 is particularly "gentle" and there is only a minimum degree of acceleration which results in forces acting on the newspaper.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 If one now looks at FIGS. 2 and 3, one can see the end of section 12 of conveyor 10, which opens into a stacking shaft 18.
  • the stacking shaft 18 is laterally limited by stop rails 19, 20, 21 and 22.
  • the bottom of the stacking shaft 18 is formed by a slider 23 (or by a pair of slides) which, in the illustration in FIG. 3, can be displaced in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the drawing.
  • An actual stacking table 24 is arranged under the slider 23, which can be raised and lowered by means not shown, and can also be rotated by 180 ° about a vertical axis.
  • the end of section 12 is formed by a set of three infeed belts 25, 26, 27 (FIG. 3) adjoining the apron conveyor 16, each with an associated pressure belt 28, 29, 30, each of the infeed belts forming a conveyor gap with the associated pressure belt , which jams the newspapers taken over by the strap conveyor 16 and conveys them in the same position, that is, with one corner ahead.
  • the inlet belts 25 to 27 are driven at the same speed as the apron conveyor 16.
  • the pressure belts 28 to 30 can also be driven at the same speed, or they can also rotate freely.
  • the deflection rollers (not denoted by numerals) forming the end of the active run, the inlet belts 25 and 26, and the associated pressure belts 28 and 29 are arranged in the immediate vicinity of the stop rail 21 and the deflection rollers of the infeed belt 27 and the pressure belt 30 in the immediate vicinity of the stop rail 22.
  • Both pulleys both the inlet belt 25 to 27 and the pressure belts 28 to 30 are each rotatably mounted in a frame 25 'and 27' or 28 ', 29' and 30 'and these frames are transverse to a lower or an upper extending shaft 31 and 32 displaceable and lockable.
  • the frame of the inlet belt 26 is not visible in FIG. 3. This adjustment option allows a very simple adaptation of the device to different formats of the resulting flat structures.
  • the pressure belt 30 with the associated inlet belt 27 by moving the frame 30 'or 27' on the shaft 32 or 31 to move to the position indicated in Fig. 2 with the dash-dotted angle 30 ' .
  • the stop rails 19 to 22 are also to be adjusted by displacement to the format of the resulting flat structures, as is common for stacking devices. It is advantageous if the longitudinal center line 17 'of section 12 intersects the central axis 18' of the stacking shaft 18, as indicated in Fig. 2.
  • a set of support tines 33 is provided, each of which can be inserted into and retracted from the stacking shaft 18 through longitudinal openings 35 in the stop rail 19 by means of an associated pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder 34.
  • the cylinders 34 are fixedly mounted on a carriage 36 which, guided on columns 37, can be displaced vertically by means of two pneumatic or hydraulic units 38, 39 connected in series. If both units 38, 39 are fully extended, the cylinders 34 are in the position shown in solid lines in FIG. 3 above the end of the inlet belts 25 to 27.
  • the cylinders are located 34 and thus the carrying tines 33 (if extended) in the dash-dotted line in FIG. 3 and designated 33 ', immediately below the end of the inlet belt 25 to 27. If both units are retracted, the cylinders 34 and thus also the carrying tines 33 in the in FIG. 3 also dot-dashed position in the immediate vicinity above the slide 23.
  • Fig. 4a the carrying tines 33 are extended and in their position shown in Fig. 3 with 33 '. They thus form a temporary storage area for the newspapers 15 leaving the infeed belts 25 to 27 and the pressure belts 28 to 30, which strike against the stop rails 19 and 20.
  • the slide 23 is open and the previously formed part S1 of a stack rests on the lowering stacking table 24.
  • Fig. 4b the carrying tines 33 have come close to their lowest position and carry a further part S2 of the stack to be formed.
  • the upper side of the already formed part S 1 has now reached under the slide 23, which has subsequently been brought into the closed position.
  • the stacking table 24 now rotates through 180 ° about a vertical axis.
  • Fig. 4c the carrying tines 33 are withdrawn and have the part S2 still in formation of the stack deposited on the now closed slide 23.
  • the stacking table 24 is raised, so that the part S 1 thereon of the stack is against the lower side of the slider 23 is pressed so that it is pressed together.
  • the invention is not restricted to the exemplary embodiment described.
  • the stacking shaft and the elements associated therewith can be designed in any way, provided that the stacking shaft is laterally delimited by at least one pair of stop rails which are perpendicular to one another, so that the side edges of the flat structures which adjoin the corner thereof advance the fabrics reach the stacking shaft, strike these stop rails practically simultaneously and are thus aligned in the stack being formed.
  • the to some extent fanned-out scale formation of the newspapers 15 on the section 12 also enables the newspapers 15 to be counted correctly immediately before they reach the stacking shaft 18.
  • This counting can take place, for example, by means of a light barrier, the control beam of which - as indicated in FIG. 2 - penetrates the conveying plane of section 12 at point 50.
  • the counting pulse generator it is important that the counting takes place immediately before it arrives in the stacking shaft 18. This means that the counting result represents the actual state in the stacking shaft 18 practically without delay and that any irregularities in the scale formation on section 11 or at the beginning of section 12 (e.g. from a newspaper removed) do not influence the counting result.
