Definitions

  • the invention relates to a printing unit of an offset printing machine for performing a flying printing plate change with two plate cylinders used alternately, to which an inking unit and at least one dampening unit is assigned, as well as a blanket cylinder and an impression cylinder, between which the printing material web is guided.
  • the object of the invention is to design a printing unit of the type mentioned in the introduction such that the plate cylinders are not moved in order to carry out a flying printing plate change.
  • the offset printing unit shown in FIG. 1 has a blanket cylinder 1 which interacts with an impression cylinder 2 arranged underneath.
  • the blanket cylinder 1 and the impression cylinder 2 are mounted in a known manner with eccentric bearings 4, 5 in side walls of the printing press, of which one side wall 3 is shown in FIG. 3.
  • the blanket cylinder 1 can be moved into three different positions 6, 7, 8 by means of the eccentric bearing 4.
  • the impression cylinder 2 can be converted into three different positions in the same way by means of the eccentric bearing 5.
  • a printing material web 9 is passed between the blanket cylinder 1 and the impression cylinder 2.
  • the axes of the blanket cylinder 1 and the impression cylinder 2 are arranged at an angle to one another.
  • the blanket cylinder 1 is assigned two plate cylinders 10, 11 which are arranged at a distance from one another and are mounted in a stationary manner in the side walls of the printing press.
  • the plate cylinders 10, 11 are positioned such that the blanket cylinder 1 is optionally in its possible position 6 on the plate cylinder 10 and in its position 8 on the plate cylinder 11.
  • position 7 the blanket cylinder 1 is parked by both plate cylinders 10, 11.
  • the blanket cylinder 1 and the impression cylinder 2 are shown in dashed lines in FIG. 1.
  • Each of the two plate cylinders 10, 11 is assigned an insertion roller 12, 13 for the liquid drawing in of the printing plate 14, 15 to be replaced in each case.
  • the inking roller 16 is supported at both ends in an adjusting lever 17.
  • the adjusting levers 17 are arranged so as to be pivotable about an inking roller 18 designed as an oscillating friction roller.
  • the inking roller 18 is followed by further rollers, not shown, of any inking unit.
  • a dampening solution feed roller 19 of a dampening unit 20 is also present on the inking roller 16.
  • the dampening solution feed roller 19 is supported at both ends on two articulated levers 21, 22, of which the articulated lever 21 can be pivoted about the axis of the inking roller 16 and the articulated lever 22 about the axis of a stationary dampening unit roller 23.
  • These articulated levers 21, 22 ensure that the dampening solution supply roller 19 always remains in contact with both the dampening unit roller 23 and the inking roller 16.
  • pressure springs instead of the articulated lever 21 or 22, which ensure that the dampening solution feed roller 19 bears against the inking roller 16 or the dampening roller 23.
  • two application rollers mounted on a common support pivotable about the axis of the inking roller 18 can also be provided.
  • the dampening unit 20 is then expediently placed on the inking roller 18 or a separate dampening unit is assigned directly to each plate cylinder.
  • Such printing units shown in FIG. 1 can also be arranged several times in succession, so that, in extreme cases, a complete printing machine is produced from similar printing units for performing a flying printing plate change. Because of the wrapping of the printing material web 9 on the cylinders 1 and 2, additional web guiding means are unnecessary.
  • the measure of letting the axial components of the blanket cylinder 1 and the impression cylinder 2 run obliquely with respect to one another means that the printing material web 9 is wrapped around the cylinders 1 and 2.
  • Fig. 2 the drive and the mechanical coupling of the blanket cylinder 1 with the impression cylinder 2 is shown.
  • gears 32, 33 are mounted to the shafts 30, 31 of the blanket cylinder 1 and the impression cylinder 2, which are mounted on the side shown by means of the eccentric bearings 4, 5 in the side wall 3.
  • the gear 32 of the blanket cylinder 1 is designed as a double gear, one toothing 34 of the gear 32 meshing with the gear 33 and the other toothing 35 of the gear 32 meshing with a gear 36 of a fixedly positioned shaft 37 of the machine drive.
  • pneumatic adjusting devices act on the eccentric bearings 4, 5 in a known manner. While the eccentric bearings 4, 5 impose a translational movement on the rubber blanket cylinder 1 and the impression cylinder 2 when changing between the three possible positions 6, 7, 8, the shaft 30 of the rubber blanket cylinder 1 rolls around the gear 36 of the shaft 37 of the machine drive by means of the toothing 35 from. At the same time, the resulting movement of the blanket cylinder 1 in the circumferential direction is transmitted to the impression cylinder 2 by means of the toothing 34 with the gear 33. The gear 33 rotates in the opposite direction to the toothing 34.
  • the mechanical coupling of the blanket cylinder 1 with the impression cylinder 2 thus makes it possible to compensate for the adjustment path S when the position of the impression cylinder 1 and the impression cylinder 2 changes, for example from position 8 to position 6 by turning back the point 38, i.e. the point of contact of the blanket cylinder 1 with the impression cylinder 2 by the distance S.
  • position 6 the positions of the tension channels 39 b and 40 b by the distance S in the circumferential direction the blanket cylinder 1 and the impression cylinder 2 offset.
  • the register is maintained in relation to a downstream printing unit or the folder.
  • the blanket cylinder 1 and the impression cylinder 2 move together around the shaft 37 when the positions 6 and 8 are changed in the middle position 7, the blanket cylinder 1 and the impression cylinder 2 are separated, the toothing 34 and the gearwheel 33 are kept in comb.
  • the double toothed wheel 32 and the toothed wheel 33 each engage a further toothed wheel, from which the drive of the plate cylinders 10, 11, 24, 25 is derived.
