Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a book binding system.
  • a book binding system generally consists of a feeding station that supplies stacks of signatures in sequence to a sewing machine, which sews the signatures to each other in order to form the books.
  • the sewing machine has an operating speed that is lower than the one of the feeding station; therefore, several sewing machines operating in parallel are very often employed in the book binding systems.
  • the sewing machines are connected to the feeding station through a station that distributes the stacks of signatures to each sewing machine.
  • a known solution consists of arranging a sorting machine downstream the feeding station.
  • the sorting machine moves the stacks of signatures transversally to a feeding direction thereof, so as to split the stacks of signatures provided by the feeding station into several parallel lines.
  • the stacks of signatures of each line are then placed on a corresponding roller bed, arranged transversally to the feeding direction, which conveys the stacks of signatures to the associated sewing machine.
  • a drawback of this solution consists in the fact that the structure described above is not able to serve a high number of sewing machines efficiently; in fact, in the case of more than three sewing machines the moving operation carried out by the sorting machine may bring about a skew of the signatures, with consequent malfunctioning of the whole book binding system. Moreover, the roller beds of each sewing machine (arranged transversally to the feeding direction of the stacks of signatures) make this structure very cumbersome.
  • a different known solution consists of providing a ring that causes a series of conveying boxes for the stacks of signatures to rotate continually; the feeding station and the sewing machines are arranged around the ring, suitably spaced apart. Every time a sewing machine needs a stack of signatures, a full box is stopped in front of the sewing machine, which withdraws the stack of signatures from it. The feeding station directly loads the empty boxes when they transit in proximity of it.
  • the present invention provides a book binding system including a feeding station for providing stacks of signatures in sequence, at least one sewing machine of the signatures, a distribution station for distributing the stacks of signatures to each sewing machine, wherein the distribution station includes a friction-type conveying element for conveying the stacks of signatures from the feeding station to the at least one sewing machine along an open path and, for each sewing machine, stopping means for stopping a stack of signatures in the proximity of the sewing machine and means for unloading from the conveying element and providing to the sewing machine the stopped stack of signature.
  • the present invention also provides a distribution station for use in this book binding system and a corresponding method for distributing the stacks of signatures.
  • a system 100 that is used in a book binding plant for making sewn books.
  • Each book is obtained sewing together a series of signatures (in a pre-set number); each signature consists of a large printed sheet that is folded up one or more times (so as to form the pages of the book).
  • the signatures are carried near the book binding system 100 using a series of pallets 105.
  • the signatures are grouped into homogeneous sets, each one consisting of signatures of a same type (i.e., forming the same pages of the book).
  • One or more operators take the signatures from the pallets 105 and place them on a collecting machine 110.
  • the collecting machine consists of a series of boxes, each one loaded with the signatures of a corresponding type.
  • the signatures are caused to fall one by one on a conveying element (not shown in the figure); the conveying element picks up the signatures in blocks, each one defining a book.
  • the blocks of signatures are provided to a connection channel 115, which conveys the blocks of signatures to a stacking machine 125.
  • the stacking machine 125 picks up and places several blocks of signatures (for instance some tens) one upon the others, so as to form corresponding stacks of signatures 130.
  • the stacks of signatures 130 are output in sequence, for instance at a speed of the order of a hundred of stacks of signatures per minute.
  • the stacks of signatures 130 are then distributed to one or more sewing machines 135a,135b (two of which shown in the figure); typically, each sewing machine 135a, 135b has an operating speed that is lower than the one of the stacking machine 125, for instance of the order of some tens of stacks of signatures per minute.
  • a straight friction-type roller bed 140 on which the stacks of signatures 130 supplied by the stacking machine 125 are placed.
  • the friction-type roller bed 140 consists of a series of friction-type rolls 142 arranged transversally to a longitudinal axis thereof. Each roll is formed by a shaft on which a series of small bushes are fitted. The shaft drags the bushes in rotation by frictional force, which bushes then causes the stacks of signatures 130 to move towards the sewing machines 135a-135b; however, an obstacle arranged along the friction-type roller bed 140 is able to stop the stacks of signatures 130 (with the bushes that idle on the corresponding shafts).
  • the stacking machine 125 is arranged near a beginning of the friction-type roller bed 140 (according to a moving direction of the stacks of signatures 130), while the sewing machines 135a,135b are placed along the friction-type roller bed 140, at its side; particularly, a last sewing machine 135b is placed near an end of the friction-type roller bed 140.
  • the friction-type roller bed 140 is partitioned into two sectors 140a and 140b (for example, each one with a length of 2-5m); the sector 140a extends from the stacking machine 125 to the sewing machine 135a, while the sector 140b extends from the sewing machine 135a to the sewing machine 135b.
  • Each sector 140a,140b is provided with a respective stop element (or time-marker) 145a,145b; the stop element 145a,145b is movable between a working position in which it stops a stack of signatures 130 in the proximity of the sewing machine 135a,135b and a non-working position in which it allows the stacks of signatures 130 to pass by.
  • a further stop element 150a,150b is used in a similar way for stopping the stacks of signatures 130 upstream the respective sewing machine 135a,135b.
  • each stop element 150a,150b directly stop a first stack of signatures 130 (which rests against the stop element 150a,150b); a further stack of signatures 130 is stopped by the first stack of signatures 130 and so on, so as to form a line of compacted stacks of signatures 130 (for instance about ten).
  • a sensor 155a,155b detects the presence of a stack of signatures 130 stopped by the respective stop element 150a, 150b; the sensor 155a,155b outputs a corresponding presence electric signal, which is for instance asserted at a logical level 1 and deasserted at a logical level 0.
  • a further sensor 160a,160b verifies that the stacks of signatures 130 are separated from each other in the proximity of the stop element 150a,150b (when in the non-working position); the sensor 160a,160b outputs a corresponding separation signal, which is asserted when no presence of stacks of signatures 130 is detected.
  • a sensor 165a,165b arranged near a beginning of the section 140a,140b verifies a filling of the line of stacks of signatures; the sensor 165a,165b outputs a corresponding full signal, which is asserted when the presence of a stack of signatures 130 is consecutively detected for a pre-set period of time (for instance 5 seconds).
  • a push element 170a,170b discharges the stack of signatures 130 stopped by the respective stop element 145a,145b from the friction-type roller bed 140; particularly, the push element 170a,170b causes the stack of signatures 130 to move transversally to the longitudinal axis of the friction-type roller bed 140.
  • the stack of signatures is then loaded into a pivoting box 175a,175b, which is arranged at the side of a loading zone of the respective sewing machine 135a,135b.
  • the operation of the book binding system 100 is managed by a programmable logic controller (PLC) 180, which in particular receives the presence signals, the separation signals and the full signals provided by the sensors 155a-155b, the sensors 160a-160b and the sensors 165a-165b, respectively.
  • PLC programmable logic controller
  • the stop element 145a consists of a series of vertical pegs 205a, which are operated by a pneumatic actuator 210a.
  • the pegs 205a are lifted above the friction-type rolls 142, so as to form an obstacle for the stacks of signatures 130; conversely, when the stop element 145a is in the non-working position, the pegs 205a are lowered under the friction-type rolls 142, so as not to interfere with the moving of the stacks of signatures 130.
  • the stop element 150a consists of a series of vertical pegs 215a, which are operated by a pneumatic actuator 220a (with the pegs 215a lifted and lowered in the working position and in the non-working position of the stop element 150a, respectively).
  • each friction-type roll 142 is coupled through a respective drive belt 230a to a single drive shaft 235a, which is operated by a corresponding electric motor 240a.
  • the drive shaft 235a has a non-constant section, with a diameter that is bigger in proximity of the stop element 150a.
  • the push element 170a consists of a rake 245a, which is caused to slide along a guide 250a (through a belt coupled to an electric motor, not shown in the figure).
  • the pivoting box 175a is operated by a pneumatic actuator 255a; particularly, the pivoting box 175a rotates between a lowered position in which it is placed at the side of the friction-type rolls 142 (for receiving a stack of signatures 130 pushed by the rake 245a) and a lifted position in which it is placed at the side of a loading reservoir 260a of the sewing machine.
  • the sewing machine is further provided with pliers 265a, which are caused to slide along a guide 270a (through a belt coupled to an electric motor, not shown in the figure); the pliers 265a grab the stack of signatures 130 loaded in the pivoting box 175a and place it in the loading reservoir 260a.
  • the stop elements 145a,145b are lowered and the stop elements 150a,150b are lifted.
  • the PLC 180 controls the stop elements 150a,150b so as to supply the lines of stacks of signatures 130 associated with each sewing machine 135a,135b by turns (for instance with a round-robin policy), substantially distributing the stacks of signatures in a uniform manner among the different sewing machines 135a,135b.
  • the stop elements associated with the preceding sewing machines are lowered, so that the stacks of signatures of the respective line are caused to advance.
  • the first stack of signatures 130 directly resting against the stop element 150a advances at a speed higher than the one of following stacks of signatures 130, so as to be spaced apart.
  • the respective sensor 160a does not detect the presence of any stack of signatures 130, the corresponding separation signal is asserted.
  • the stop element 150a is lifted, so as to stop the following stacks of signatures 130.
  • the first stack of signatures 130 then lines up at the following line (associated with the sewing machine 135b), while the stacking machine 125 directly supplies the line of the first sewing machine 135a.
  • the sewing machine 135a Each time the stacks of signatures present in the reservoir of a sewing machine (for instance the sewing machine 135a) fall below a pre-set level, the sewing machine 135a outputs a corresponding request signal that is supplied to the PLC 180. As a consequence, the pliers 265a grab the stack of signatures 130 loaded in the pivoting box 175a (as described in the following); the pliers slide along the guide 270a and place the stack of signatures 130 in the loading reservoir 260a. The pivoting box 175a is then lowered to be at the side of the friction-type rolls 142.
  • the stop element 150a is lowered and then raised again for causing the first stack of signatures 130 to pass in a way analogous to the preceding one.
  • the stop element 145a is lifted, so as to stop the stack of signatures 130 in front of the push element 170a.
  • the rake 245a is caused to slide along the guide 250a, so as to push the stack of signatures 130 toward the pivoting box 175a (and it is then withdrawn immediately).
  • the pivoting box 175a is then raised again, in order to be ready to satisfy a next request of the sewing machine 135a.
  • a friction-type conveying element for conveying the stacks of signatures from the feeding station to one or more sewing machines along an open path and, for each sewing machine, stopping means for stopping a stack of signatures in the proximity of the sewing machine and means for unloading from the conveying element and providing to the sewing machine the stopped stack of signature.
  • the solution of the present invention is extremely economic, since it does not require any sorting machine and uses a very simple conveying element. This even makes the use of a single sewing machine advantageous from an economic point of view.
  • the book binding system described above is particularly flexible, since it allows the number of sewing machines to grow with the simple addition of a new module to a pre-existing structure. This solution makes it possible at the beginning to buy a system comprising a single sewing machine and then to expand the same as the production needs increase.
  • the structure of the present invention is particularly compact, since it uses a single conveying element of small dimensions.
  • a distribution station formed by the friction-type roller bed with the relative stop elements, push elements and pivoting boxes
  • the straight friction-type roller bed is extremely simple and inexpensive.
  • the stop elements upstream each sewing machine and the particular mechanism that produces a different speed of rotation of the friction-type rolls allow the stacks of signatures to be separated in a very efficient way.
  • the push elements and the corresponding pivoting boxes make it possible to unload the stacks of signatures from the friction-type roller bed quickly and in a simple manner, and at the same time they make it possible to supply the stacks of signatures to the sewing machines without requiring any change to their structure.
  • the friction-type roller bed is arranged along a different open path, it is replaced by another equivalent friction-type element, the stacks of signatures are stopped in proximity of each sewing machine in a different manner, other devices are used for unloading the stacks of signatures from the friction-type roller bed and for supplying them to the sewing machines, and the like.
  • each sector 140a,140b of the friction-type roller bed 140 may be operated independently (through the respective electric motor 240a). In this way, every time a sector 140a,140b is full (full signal output by the sensor 165a, 165b asserted), the respective electric motor 240a,240b is switched off. This avoids pressing of the stacks of signatures on the preceding stacks of signatures, which might cause an overlapping or a skewing of the signatures.
