Abstract

Eine Bogenmaterial-Fördervorrichtung umfaßt eine Vielzahl von Bogenmaterial-Zuführstationen. Es werden eine Vielzahl von Taschen (10) der Reihe nach an den Bogenmaterial-Zuführstationen voebei bewegt, um nacheinander das Bogenmaterial aufzunehmen. Jede Tasche (10) umfaßt ein oberes Ende (50) durch welches das Bogenmaterial in die Tasche (10) eintritt, ein unteres Ende (60), durch welches das Bogenmaterial die Tasche (10) verläßt, und eine Stützvorrichtung (70, 72, 74), welche das Bogenmaterial in der Tasche (10) stützt. Die Stützvorrichtung (70, 72, 74) ist zwischen einer Vielzahl von geschlossenen Positionen, in welchen die Stützvorrichtung unterschiedlich von dem oberen Ende (50) der Tasche (10) beabstandet ist und mindestens teilweise das untere Ende (60) der Tasche (10) blockiert, bewegbar. Ebenso ist die Stützvorrichtung (70, 72, 74) von jeder der geschlossenen Positionen in eine offene Position, in welcher das Bogenmaterial aus der Tasche 10) durch deren unteres Ende (60) ausgestoßen wird, bewegbar. Die Tasche (10) umfaßt eine Zahnstange (80) und ein Ritzel (120), die eine Relativbewegung ausführen, um die Stützvorrichtung (70, 72, 74) zwischen jeder der geschlossenen Positionen und der offenen Position zu bewegen.

Figure 00000001
A sheet material feeder includes a plurality of sheet material feed stations. A plurality of pockets (10) are moved in sequence at the sheet material feed stations to consecutively receive the sheet material. Each pocket (10) comprises an upper end (50) through which the sheet material enters the pocket (10), a lower end (60) through which the sheet material leaves the pocket (10), and a support device (70, 72, 74), which supports the sheet material in the pocket (10). The support device (70, 72, 74) is between a plurality of closed positions in which the support device is spaced differently from the upper end (50) of the bag (10) and at least partially the lower end (60) of the bag (10) blocked, movable. Likewise, the support device (70, 72, 74) is movable from each of the closed positions to an open position in which the sheet material is ejected from the pocket 10) through its lower end (60). The pocket (10) includes a rack (80) and a pinion (120) that perform relative movement to move the support device (70, 72, 74) between each of the closed positions and the open position.
