Definitions
- the invention is in the field of general cargo processing and relates to a device according to the preamble of the independent claim.
- the device is used to collate flat objects and to convey the articles further, the flat objects being in particular printed products.
- the skilled person understands the stacking of different printed products into stacks, wherein the same printed products usually lie in the same order in all the stacks, but the stacks may also differ from each other, if individual printed products are missing from individual stacks.
- the printed products are, for example, individual, unfolded or folded sheets or multiply folded signatures and the printed products compiled into a stack differ from each other in terms of their printed content, but may additionally differ in their shape.
- Devices for collecting printed products have a plurality of feeding units and a collating means.
- Each feeder unit is equipped to feed one type of printing product to the collator and the collator is equipped for the production of Stack from the supplied printed products.
- the feed unit outputs directed against the collating means are arranged substantially one after the other in a row and the collator means comprises a number of compartments for receiving the printed products fed, the row of feeder outlets being parallel to the row of compartments.
- one compartment each is aligned with one feed outlet each.
- the collating means is equipped for conveying the supplied printed products in a collating direction directed parallel to the two said rows.
- the feed units are, for example, feeders, winding stations or on-line connections with devices in which the printed products to be assembled are created or processed.
- the compartments are stationary during the feeding steps and the printed products are pushed or thrown from the side into the compartments aligned with the feeder outlets. Between successive feed steps, the printed products with the compartments in the collation direction are shifted by the distance between successive feeders (or by an integer book portion of that distance) such that the compartments aligned with the feed outlets are replaced by successive compartments.
- the compartments of such devices are usually arranged such that the printed products lie horizontally therein. In the publication US-2561070 such a device is described, whose compartments have a corner which is lower than the other three corners, such that the printed products deposited therein are aligned by gravity at this one corner.
- Collapsing devices are also known whose compartments always remain stationary.
- the printed products fed to the sections are pushed through the following compartments between feed steps by means of a slider in the gathering direction from the compartment to which they are fed until all the printed products fed in the previous feeding step are in a compartment which is in front of the compartment front feed exit is arranged.
- the printed products pushed from compartment to compartment to be neatly stacked in such a device, it is necessary for the printed products in the gathering direction to be inclined, that is to say the trays of the compartments are arranged correspondingly obliquely.
- Collapsing devices with the described completely stationary compartments with trays inclined in the collating direction are described, for example, in the publications US Pat. No. 1861406, GB-1444487 or EP-0292458.
- Collapsing devices with compartments moving essentially continuously in the collating direction do not have the disadvantages mentioned.
- the printed products For trouble-free feeding of the printed products to continuously moving compartments, however, the printed products must be substantially rectified with the gathering direction and precisely synchronized with the compartments pushed or thrown into the compartments, and their speed is adapted to the conveying speed of the compartments.
- the gathering means known such devices for example, a conveyor belt with transversely and optionally - A -
- each two adjacent transverse walls define a compartment.
- the supplied printed products are stacked lying on the conveyor belt.
- Other known collating devices with continuously conveyed compartments have V- or L-shaped compartments in which the supplied printed products stand on one edge and lean against a wall leading or trailing in the collating direction.
- V- or L-shaped compartments can be conveyed much closer one behind the other, so that significantly less conveying speeds are necessary for the same unit performance.
- the printed products in these compartments stand on one edge and automatically remain aligned relative to this edge by the action of gravity.
- the openings of the compartments are significantly narrower and a relevant higher accuracy in feeding necessary, not only so that the most unguided leading edge of a supplied printed product meets the department opening at all, but in particular so that this leading edge securely at upper edges of already stacked in the compartment products can be passed over.
- high feed accuracy limits the conveying speed and thus the piece performance of the appropriately equipped collating devices.
- the compartments are also equipped with retaining means, are pressed by the already stacked products against one wall and thus can not come into conflict with a further supplied printed product. Such measures make the compartments complex and complex in terms of equipment and control.
- the object of the invention is now to provide a continuously operable device for collating flat objects, in particular printed products, and for conveying the collated objects or printed products, the device being able to be realized with the simplest means. Nevertheless, the device should be suitable for high unit performance and enable a further promotion of the collected printed products without significant restrictions and a simple transfer to a subsequent funding.
- the device according to the invention like known collating devices, has a plurality of compartments which are essentially continuously and circulatingly driven, part of the circulating track being designed as a feed region, that is to say running parallel to a row of feed outlets.
- the compartments of the device according to the invention combine the advantages of the compartments of known continuously operating collating devices, in which the flat ones Objects are stacked lying down, with the advantages of such compartments in which the flat objects are stacked standing on an edge, and they are by an appropriate design and control for further promotion with gradients, gradients and / or directional changes and for easy removal of the therein assembled, flat objects equipped.
- the circumferentially driven compartments of the device according to the invention have a bottom on which the supplied printed products are stacked lying, and at least one wall (transverse wall). Further, they are so coupled to a conveyor (eg conveyor chain) that they are pivotable about at least one pivot axis transverse to the conveying direction and they advantageously have control means by means of which they can be brought into different pivotal positions during their rotation relative to the conveyor or relative to the orbit are. At least in the feed area, the compartments are aligned such that the at least one. Transverse wall is aligned transversely to the conveying direction and that the compartment floors are inclined in the conveying direction against this transverse wall. Transverse to the conveying direction, the compartment floors, for example, aligned substantially horizontally.
- compartments are conveyed in the said spatial position substantially one behind the other (optionally with a small overlap of less than 10%) through the feed area, so that their openings for feeding without great effort to be stacked in the compartments objects are large enough and fed Objects are aligned by gravity on the transverse wall.
- the compartments are pivotable, for example, about a substantially horizontal pivot axis relative to the conveyor or relative to the orbit, wherein the pivot axis is for example in the region of the intersection of compartment floor and transverse wall.
- the compartments can be pivotable about a substantially vertical pivot axis relative to the conveyor or to the orbit, so that the transverse wall is aligned transversely to the conveying direction and advancing or trailing in the promotion by the supply area and that, for example, in a further promotion of the spatial orientation the transverse wall remains the same, even if the floor plan of the orbit has changes in direction, or the spatial orientation of the transverse wall can be changed, even if the floor plan of the orbit has no direction changes.
- the control of said pivotability of the compartments of the device according to the invention is realized, for example, with control rollers which are arranged on the compartments and which roll on stationary scenes.
- control rollers which are arranged on the compartments and which roll on stationary scenes.
- the compartments are advantageously narrower than the flat objects to be handled and / or have gaps extending in the conveying direction, so that means for removing the stacked printed products from the compartments laterally from the compartments and / or through the gaps from below onto the objects act and these can stand out from the compartment floors.
- the angle of inclination of the compartment floors in the feed area is as small as possible so that the opening of the compartments remains large.
- the angle of inclination is so great too Select that gravity at least supports the orientation of the supplied printed products.
- the angle of inclination of the compartments in the feed region is between 10 ° and 45 °, advantageously between 10 ° and 20 °.
- the inclination angle of the compartment floors can be adjusted in the feed area by a corresponding adjustment also to the friction coefficient and the weight of the flat objects to be handled.
- the device according to the invention is particularly suitable for the collation of very different, flat objects, of which at least a part are printed products, for example for the production of groups of such objects as shipping units.
- groups often comprise a newspaper or magazine (main product) as well as a wide variety of supplements, such as folded or unfolded sheets, cards, booklets, brochures, CDs, flat samples or small pieces of paper affixed to one of the other items (Mesomick®) or Cards.
