Description

Book paper cutter

Technical Field

The invention relates to a paper cutter, in particular to a paper cutter for cutting three edges of books.

Background

The book manufacturing comprises the production processes of white paper cutting, printing, binding, volume forming and the like. After binding, the redundant parts of the other three edges of the books except the book backs need to be cut so that the sizes of the books are consistent and the edges are flush.

Traditional books paper cutter, after cutting the one side, need the manual work to turn to, the adjustment size cuts the another side again, and manual work turns to once more, and the adjustment size could accomplish the trilateral edge of this book and cuts. A book edge trimmer according to application No. 201721331046.7, comprising an operating table 1, a conveyor 2 arranged on the operating table 1, a clamping device 3 arranged above the conveyor 2 for pre-clamping a book 6, a cutter assembly 4 arranged on one side of the conveyor 2, and a drive 5 for driving the cutter assembly 4 to cut the edge of the book. Before the cutter assembly 4 cuts the book 6, the piston shaft 321 of the pneumatic cylinder 32 may abut on the sidewall of the movable clamp 312 and push the movable clamp 312 to translate toward the fixed clamp 311 against the elastic force of the spring 314 to clamp the book 6 firmly. When the cutting action is completed, the piston shaft 321 is retracted to be separated from the movable clamping plate 312, and the movable clamping plate 312 can be reset under the elastic force of the spring 314. The book cutting machine with the single-cutter structure is time-consuming, labor-consuming and low in efficiency.
