Abstract

A method for producing newspaper copies, magazine copies and the like, in which a plurality of paper webs are printed by a corresponding number of rotary printing machines, are divided into sections which are conveyed one above the other in a particular manner and are cut to form partial products, the sheets or partial products are collated in the correct sequence, folded and stitched. The paper webs printed in each case by a rotary printing machine are delivered pre-folded or unfolded as an imbricated flow of partial products, the imbricated flow or the partial products is or are collected or stored as a coil, the partial products of the individual coils belonging to one magazine copy are removed by means of chains or the like and transported without further folding hanging perpendicular to the plane of the sheets and, during the transportation within the chains, are collated in the correct sequence of the sheets of the magazine copy and, after collation, the stitching (stapling) and folding of the completed magazine copies take place (Figure). <IMAGE>

Process for the production of newspaper and magazine copies and the like

The invention relates to a method for the production of newspaper, magazine copies and the like., in which several paper webs by correspondingly many Rotary printing machines printed, divided into strands, which are guided over one another in a certain way and become partial products are cut, the sheets or partial products are brought together in the correct order, folded and stapled will.

Ί COPY

The fewer pages of illustrated magazines in recent years usually left a so-called Complete production to, i.e. in the folder, in direct connection with the printing, all the sheets ■ each copy from the division of the printed paper web in strands and bringing them together as finished, folded and stapled copies in the form of an imbricated stream Issued in the means of transport to the package delivery.

With the increase in the number of pages, it became necessary to produce the booklets in the form of partial products and finally to put them together into a complete booklet with the help of saddle stitchers. They had to folded partial products for the purpose of gathering "are always opened again at a defined point.

This unnecessary combination of two mutually canceling process steps (folding - opening) is not only a source of numerous disturbances in the case of behavior that does not correspond to the theoretical ideas individual copies or sheets of paper, but also cause speed restrictions that lead to differences in the production speeds of the rotary machine and further processing unit of several 100% lead.

5 The invention addresses the problem that

Production of newspaper and magazine copies with to carry out a higher degree of efficiency. Also supposed to be a Process to be developed, in which the highest possible material speed in the production of copies of periodicals and the like. Is achieved. The disadvantages of previously known methods should also be eliminated .

This is achieved by a method according to the patent claim.

5 It is essential for the present invention that

the individual sub-products that make up a magazine copy should not be finally folded after printing, but rather in unfolded or pre-folded Can be transported hanging in such a way that the plane of the sheet is perpendicular to the transport device. To this In this way, the individual arches can be spaced relatively short, i.e. on a relatively small one Space can be moved at a rate that significantly increases the utilization of the facility. in the On the contrary, the method according to the invention can be operated at a speed that is not in terms of rotary printing speed is reduced because instead of the original speed of the coherent paper web moves the product stream shortened by the scaling factor correspondingly more slowly without affecting the speed of the material. When joining the transport chain there is a change of direction of movement by 90, so that the transport is no longer in the direction of the arch plane, but in the direction of the arc sequence and thus the ■ packing density or cycle sequence of the vertically hanging Arch in the transport chain determines the speed of the material flow.

Pre-folded in this context means that the

² ^ sheet has been subjected to a folding process and then not / in the folded, but in the stretched state essentially: is transported perpendicular to the plane of the sheet.

The invention is explained below with reference to the drawing, for example. The only figure of the The drawing shows a diagrammatic representation in plan view of a production facility in which the method can be used according to the invention.

In the drawing, 10, 20 and 30 rolls are shown, each behind a rotary printing press have been formed. In the wraps are the individual sheets, which are made with the help of transport chains, not shown are removed from the winding 10 ίιριΙ by dr-ii Trdn.sportketten 11, 12 and IJ can be ordered separately. Roin schematically in the areas 11 to 13 lines are shown

shows, which are intended to represent the upper edge of an arc. With the help of the transport chains these arches brought to a device 14, so that each one sheet from the transport chain 11 in front of a sheet from the transport chain 12 and this again in front of a sheet ■. the transport chain 13 is brought into alignment.

In the setup described so far, three of these sheets with the help of another transport. · Chain 15 removed. Purely schematic is in the area of

10. Transpörtkette 15 expressed by three dashes that the individual arches are now in close proximity to each other ujid from there to be continued. The combined sheets are in the direction of arrow 16 to a stapling and folding device so that finally the desired .Zagazine copy can be produced.

For purposes of clarity of illustration only only three coils 10, 20 and 30 have been shown here. It is obvious that the procedure according to the Invention can be carried out with a large number of sheets, in particular with the desired number of sheets can.

From the drawing it can be seen that the individual sub-products after being removed from the roll on their 5 upper end transported unfolded by means of the chains. ' will. The final folding process only takes place after the ' Stapling. In the case of known facilities, sheets or partial products have so far been collected into saddle stitchers, folded and in a later operation the. folded copies opened and further folded Partial products added. This unnecessary opening of the folded partial product is omitted in the method according to the invention.
