Definitions
- the invention relates to a book binding machine according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for operating such a book binding machine according to claim 8.
- Books are made according to the state of the art in bookbinding machines. Such consists of a plurality of successively arranged and chained together by a book conveyor machines: machines for collating book blocks, for bookbinding, machines for drying and / or cooling, for side trimming and for stacking the finished books.
- Collating machines serve to collate book blocks from a plurality of signatures and comprise two essential elements: a device for transporting the collected sheets, a so-called block collector, and a plurality of investors.
- the block collector may for example have a collecting channel with the collected sheets pushing drivers.
- the block collector may have rotating transport compartments on a conveyor.
- the feeders can be designed as feeders with gripper tongs or feeders with gripper drum.
- the DE 1216 837 shows such a collator with in a row juxtaposed investors with rapier and with an endless conveyor provided with carriers.
- the gathering machine has both a book block display and a transfer device for transferring the book block to a subsequent further processing machine, such as an adhesive binder.
- Another gathering machine is in the EP 1 873 103 A1 disclosed.
- This has a conveying device with a circulating traction means with a plurality of Receiving points.
- investors are arranged, which store signatures in the receiving points.
- An existing sensor checks if the pickup points are defective or functional. In the case of a defect, the investors are controlled by a machine control so that no signatures are filed in the defective receiving location.
- Perfect binders used for the production of adhesive booklets or book blocks for hard covers, wherein the folded sheets and / or single sheets are combined to form a book block by applying an adhesive or glue on the previously processed block spine.
- glue and adhesive are used synonymously below.
- the possible binding methods and the product variants depend on the machine equipment. This consists essentially of the functional units book block transport system, book block insertion station, back processing, back gluing, intermediate drying, side gluing, back reinforcement, put on envelope and press on, press envelope and dry.
- the DE 20 2005 007 012 U1 shows such a perfect binder.
- This comprises a book block transport system consisting of around deflection wheels running conveyors and a plurality of in a same spaced apart therefrom attached thereto brackets for clamping sheet stacks.
- the staples transport the stacks of sheets and glued book blocks through the various processing stations.
- a disadvantage of prior art bookbinding machines is that in the case of a defective book block clip of the perfect binder, the book binding machine must be stopped to replace the defective clip, if a replacement clip is present, or otherwise to repair the clip. During this time, the bookbinding machine can not be operated, which significantly reduces their productivity and which is particularly problematic in time-critical production jobs. Furthermore, the provision of spare brackets represents an unloved capital commitment. Furthermore, in the event of a necessary exchange of brackets, sufficiently qualified specialist personnel must be present.
- Another problem is that the quality of already located in the perfect binder book block is significantly reduced by stopping the bookbinding machine, that is, the interrupted machining process. Thus, during this time, the adhesive can partially set and a later attached envelope no longer adheres properly. If necessary. the book blocks must even be sorted out as scrap.
- Object of the present task is therefore to provide a bookbinding machine, which overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art and in particular in the event of a defect of a book block clamp can still be operated. Also, a method for operating such a bookbinding machine will be described.

This makes it easier to assign the control device of a particular book block clip in each case a transport segment of the gathering machine. It can also be provided that the machine operator mark individual book block brackets as defective by means of an interface of the control device by entering numbers, and thereby supply the control device with information for an adapted mode of operation of the bookbinding machine.
- a respective book block clamp may also have an identification element, which may be designed, for example, as an RFID tag or as a bar code. Such an identification element, which is preferred attached to the back of the clip can then be read by a sensor which simultaneously detects the position of a respective book block clip.
- the perfect binder of the bookbinding machine has a detection device for detecting defective or for detecting the absence of a book block clip.
- the detection device can be formed by one or more sensors, in particular optical sensors, or by a digital camera.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Buchbindemaschine gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 und ein Verfahren zum Betreiben einer solchen Buchbindemaschine gemäß Anspruch 8.The invention relates to a book binding machine according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for operating such a book binding machine according to claim 8.
Bücher werden nach dem Stand der Technik in Buchbindemaschinen hergestellt. Eine solche besteht aus einer Mehrzahl von hintereinander angeordneten und über ein Buchfördermittel miteinander verketteten Maschinen: Maschinen zum Zusammentragen von Buchblocks, zum Buchbinden, Maschinen zum Trocknen und/oder Kühlen, zum Seitenbeschneiden und zum Abstapeln der fertigen Bücher.Books are made according to the state of the art in bookbinding machines. Such consists of a plurality of successively arranged and chained together by a book conveyor machines: machines for collating book blocks, for bookbinding, machines for drying and / or cooling, for side trimming and for stacking the finished books.
Zusammentragmaschinen dienen dem zusammentragen von Buchblocks aus einer Vielzahl von Falzbögen und umfassen zwei wesentliche Elemente: eine Einrichtung zum Transport der gesammelten Bögen, einen sogenannten Blocksammler, und eine Mehrzahl von Anlegern. Der Blocksammler kann beispielsweise einen Sammelkanal mit die gesammelten Bögen schiebenden Mitnehmern besitzen. Alternativ kann der Blocksammler an einem Fördermittel umlaufende Transportfächer besitzen. Die Anleger können als Anleger mit Greiferzange oder Anleger mit Greifertrommel ausgeführt sein.Collating machines serve to collate book blocks from a plurality of signatures and comprise two essential elements: a device for transporting the collected sheets, a so-called block collector, and a plurality of investors. The block collector may for example have a collecting channel with the collected sheets pushing drivers. Alternatively, the block collector may have rotating transport compartments on a conveyor. The feeders can be designed as feeders with gripper tongs or feeders with gripper drum.

Klebebinder, dienen der Herstellung von klebegebundenen Broschuren oder Buchblocks für Festeinbände, wobei die zu einem Buchblock zusammengetragenen Falzbogen und / oder Einzelblätter durch Auftragen eines Klebstoffs bzw. Leims auf den zuvor bearbeiteten Blockrücken verbunden werden. Die Begriffe Leim und Klebstoff werden nachfolgend synonym verwendet. Die möglichen Bindeverfahren und die Produktvarianten sind von der Maschinenausrüstung abhängig. Diese besteht im Wesentlichen aus den Funktionseinheiten Buchblocktransportsystem, Buchblockeinführstation, Rückenbearbeitung, Rückenbeleimen, Zwischentrocknung, Seitenbeleimen, Rückenverstärkung, Umschlag anlegen und andrücken, Umschlag anpressen und trocknen.Perfect binders, used for the production of adhesive booklets or book blocks for hard covers, wherein the folded sheets and / or single sheets are combined to form a book block by applying an adhesive or glue on the previously processed block spine. The terms glue and adhesive are used synonymously below. The possible binding methods and the product variants depend on the machine equipment. This consists essentially of the functional units book block transport system, book block insertion station, back processing, back gluing, intermediate drying, side gluing, back reinforcement, put on envelope and press on, press envelope and dry.
Die
Nachteilig an Buchbindemaschinen nach dem Stand der Technik ist, dass im Fall einer defekten Buchblockklammer des Klebebinders die Buchbindemaschine angehalten werden muss, um die defekte Klammer auszutauschen, sofern eine Ersatzklammer vorhanden ist, oder andernfalls die Klammer zu reparieren. Während dieser Zeit kann die Buchbindemaschine nicht betrieben werden, was deren Produktivität erheblich reduziert und was bei zeitkritischen Produktionsaufträgen besonders problematisch ist.
Auch stellt das Bereithalten von Ersatzklammern eine ungeliebte Kapitalbindung dar. Weiter muss im Falle eines notwenigen Klammertausches das ausreichend qualifizierte Fachpersonal anwesend sein.A disadvantage of prior art bookbinding machines is that in the case of a defective book block clip of the perfect binder, the book binding machine must be stopped to replace the defective clip, if a replacement clip is present, or otherwise to repair the clip. During this time, the bookbinding machine can not be operated, which significantly reduces their productivity and which is particularly problematic in time-critical production jobs.
Furthermore, the provision of spare brackets represents an unloved capital commitment. Furthermore, in the event of a necessary exchange of brackets, sufficiently qualified specialist personnel must be present.
Weiter problematisch ist, dass die Qualität von sich bereits im Klebebinder befindlichen Buchblocks durch das Anhalten der Buchbindemaschine, sprich den unterbrochenen Bearbeitungsprozess, erheblich reduziert wird. So kann in dieser Zeit der Klebstoff teilweise abbinden und ein später angebrachter Umschlag haftet nicht mehr richtig. Ggfs. müssen die Buchblocks gar als Ausschuss aussortiert werden.Another problem is that the quality of already located in the perfect binder book block is significantly reduced by stopping the bookbinding machine, that is, the interrupted machining process. Thus, during this time, the adhesive can partially set and a later attached envelope no longer adheres properly. If necessary. the book blocks must even be sorted out as scrap.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Aufgabe ist es daher, eine Buchbindemaschine zu schaffen, welche die Nachteile des Standes der Technik behebt und insbesondere im Falle eines Defekts einer Buchblockklammer trotzdem betrieben werden kann. Auch soll ein Verfahren zum Betreiben einer solchen Buchbindemaschine beschrieben werden.Object of the present task is therefore to provide a bookbinding machine, which overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art and in particular in the event of a defect of a book block clamp can still be operated. Also, a method for operating such a bookbinding machine will be described.
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Buchbindemaschine mit einer Zusammentragmaschine zum Zusammentragen von Buchblocks, wobei die Zusammentragmaschine eine Sammeleinrichtung mit einer Mehrzahl von Transportsegmenten besitzt. Die Buchbindemaschine umfasst weiter einen Klebebinder zum Bearbeiten der Buchblocks, zur Herstellung von klebegebundenen Broschuren bzw. Büchern, wobei der Klebebinder ein Buchblocktransportsystem mit einer Mehrzahl von Buchblockklammern aufweist zum Transport der Buchblocks durch Bearbeitungsstationen des Klebebinders. Die Bearbeitungsstationen können Rückenbearbeitungs-, Klebstoffauftrags-, Fälzel- und Umschlaganlegestation sein. Weiteres Element der Buchbindemaschine ist eine zwischen Zusammentragmaschine und Klebebinder angeordnete Übergabeeinrichtung zum Übergeben der zusammengetragenen Buchblocks von der Sammeleinrichtung der Zusammentragmaschine an das Buchblocktransportsystem des Klebebinders. Die Zusammentragmaschine und der Klebebinder werden dabei erfindungsgemäß von einer gemeinsamen Steuereinrichtung angesteuert. In vorteilhafter Weise ist durch diese Steuereinrichtung der jeweiligen Buchblockklammer des Klebebinders je ein Transportsegment der Sammeleinrichtung der Zusammentragmaschine zugeordnet. Durch diese Zuordnung eines Transportsegments zu einer Buchblockklammer kann in vorteilhafter Weise bei einer fehlenden oder defekten Buchblockklammer das Zusammentragen von Buchblocks bereits in der Zusammentragmaschine angepasst werden ohne, dass dabei die Buchbindemaschine angehalten werden müsste.The invention relates to a book binding machine with a collating machine for collating book blocks, wherein the collating machine has a collecting device with a plurality of transport segments. The bookbinding machine further includes an adhesive binder for processing the book blocks, for producing adhesive bound books, the binder having a book block transport system with a plurality of book block brackets for transporting the book blocks through processing stations of the adhesive binder. The processing stations can be spine processing, adhesive application, folding and Umschlaganlegestation. Another element of the bookbinding machine is a transfer device arranged between the collating machine and the adhesive binder for transferring the collated book blocks from the collecting device of the collating machine to the book block transport system of the perfect binder. The gathering machine and the perfect binder are driven according to the invention by a common control device. In an advantageous manner, a transport segment of the collecting device of the collating machine is assigned to each respective book block clamp of the perfect binder by means of this control device. Through this assignment of a transport segment to a book block clip can advantageously in a missing or defective book block clip the Collecting book blocks are already adjusted in the collator without the bookbinding machine having to be stopped.
In einer besonders vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Buchbindemaschine weist die Steuereinrichtung ein Maschinenprogramm auf, welches beim Detektieren einer defekten oder fehlenden Buchblockklammer die Zusammentragmaschine so ansteuert, dass für diese defekte oder fehlende Buchblockklammer kein Buchblock zusammengetragen wird. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass ein Auftrag trotz defekter Klammer zu Ende gebracht werden kann und der Klebebinder bzw. die Buchbindemaschine nicht angehalten werden muss. Alternativ ist es möglich, die Buchbindemaschine kurz anzuhalten, die defekte Klammer zu entnehmen und die Buchbindemaschine mit dem Klebebinder ohne die defekte Klammer weiter zu betreiben. Die Position der defekten und entnommenen Klammer innerhalb des Buchblocktransportsystems bleibt dann leer. Dies ermöglicht in vorteilhafter Weise, dass die defekte Klammer ohne Zeitdruck außerhalb des Klebebinders repariert werden kann.In a particularly advantageous development of the bookbinding machine according to the invention, the control device has a machine program which controls the gathering machine when detecting a defective or missing book block clamp so that no book block is collected for this defective or missing book block clamp. This has the advantage that a job can be brought to an end despite the broken clip and the perfect binder or bookbinding machine does not have to be stopped. Alternatively, it is possible to briefly stop the bookbinding machine, remove the defective clip and continue to operate the bookbinding machine with the perfect binder without the defective clip. The position of the broken and removed parenthesis within the book block transport system then remains empty. This advantageously allows the defective clip to be repaired without time pressure outside of the perfect binder.
In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Buchbindemaschine weist der Klebebinder mindestens einen Sensor auf zum Erfassen der Position einer jeweiligen Buchblockklammer. Alternativ kann die Position einer jeweiligen Buchblockklammer auch in der Steuereinrichtung hinterlegt sein.In an advantageous development of the bookbinding machine according to the invention, the adhesive binder has at least one sensor for detecting the position of a respective book block clamp. Alternatively, the position of a respective book block clip can also be stored in the control device.
In einer besonders vorteilhaften und daher bevorzugten Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Buchbindemaschine sind die Buchblockklammern des Klebebinders nummeriert. Dies erleichtert es, der Steuereinrichtung einer bestimmten Buchblockklammer jeweils ein Transportsegment der Zusammentragmaschine zuzuordnen. Auch kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Maschinenbediener mittels eines Interfaces der Steuereinrichtung durch Nummerneingabe einzelne Buchblockklammern als defekt markieren und dadurch der Steuereinrichtung Informationen für eine angepasste Betriebsweise der Buchbindemaschine liefern kann. In einer alternativen Ausführungsvariante kann eine jeweilige Buchblockklammer auch ein Identifikationselement aufweisen, welches beispielsweise als RFID-Tag oder als Strichcode ausgebildet sein kann. Ein solches Identifikationselement, welches bevorzugt an der Rückseite der Klammer angebracht ist, kann dann von einem Sensor ausgelesen werden, der gleichzeitig die Position einer jeweiligen Buchblockklammer erfasst.In a particularly advantageous and therefore preferred development of the bookbinding machine according to the invention, the book block brackets of the adhesive binder are numbered. This makes it easier to assign the control device of a particular book block clip in each case a transport segment of the gathering machine. It can also be provided that the machine operator mark individual book block brackets as defective by means of an interface of the control device by entering numbers, and thereby supply the control device with information for an adapted mode of operation of the bookbinding machine. In an alternative embodiment variant, a respective book block clamp may also have an identification element, which may be designed, for example, as an RFID tag or as a bar code. Such an identification element, which is preferred attached to the back of the clip can then be read by a sensor which simultaneously detects the position of a respective book block clip.
In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung besitzt der Klebebinder der erfindungsgemäßen Buchbindemaschine eine Detektionseinrichtung zum Detektieren von defekten oder zum Detektieren des Fehlens einer Buchblockklammer. Die Detektionseinrichtung kann dabei durch einen oder mehrere Sensoren, insbesondere optische Sensoren, oder durch eine Digitalkamera ausgebildet sein. Eine Kamera kann dazu dienen, dass ein Bildvergleich durchgeführt wird, um den Istzustand einer Buchblockklammer mit einem, in einem Datenspeicher der Maschinensteuerung hinterlegten Sollzustand zu vergleichen.In an advantageous development of the perfect binder of the bookbinding machine according to the invention has a detection device for detecting defective or for detecting the absence of a book block clip. The detection device can be formed by one or more sensors, in particular optical sensors, or by a digital camera. A camera may serve to perform an image comparison to compare the actual state of a book block clip with a target state stored in a data memory of the machine control.
In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Buchbindemaschine weist deren Steuereinrichtung ein Maschinenprogramm auf, welches beim Detektieren einer defekten oder fehlenden Buchblockklammer die Umschlaganlegestation des Klebebinders so ansteuert, dass für die fehlende bzw. defekte Buchblockklammer kein Umschlag bereitgestellt wird.In an advantageous development of the bookbinding machine according to the invention, its control device has a machine program which, upon detecting a defective or missing book block clamp, controls the envelope applicator station of the perfect binder in such a way that no cover is provided for the missing or defective book block clip.
Die Erfindung betrifft auch ein Verfahren zum Betreiben einer wie oben beschriebenen Buchbindemaschine. Dabei werden die Buchblockklammern des Klebebinders überwacht, und wenn eine defekte oder fehlende Buchblockklammer detektiert wird, so wird die Zusammentragmaschine so angesteuert, dass für diese defekte oder fehlende Buchblockklammer kein Buchblock zusammen getragen wird. In einer ersten Ausführungsvariante kann die Überwachung der Buchblockklammern durch den Maschinenbediener erfolgen, welcher die Informationen über defekte oder fehlende Buchblockklammern in die Steuereinrichtung der Buchbindemaschine eingibt. In einer zweiten Ausführungsform kann die Überwachung der Buchblockklammern durch eine Detektionseinrichtung, wie eine Kamera oder mindestens einen Sensor erfolgen, wobei die Informationen über defekte oder fehlende Buchblockklammern von der Detektionseinrichtung an die Steuereinrichtung gemeldet werden.The invention also relates to a method for operating a bookbinding machine as described above. The book block staples of the perfect binder are monitored and if a defective or missing book block staple is detected, the gathering machine is driven so that no book block is carried together for this defective or missing book block staple. In a first embodiment, the monitoring of the book block brackets by the machine operator can be done, which inputs the information about defective or missing book block brackets in the control device of the bookbinding machine. In a second embodiment, the monitoring of the book block brackets can be performed by a detection device, such as a camera or at least one sensor, wherein the information about defective or missing book block brackets are reported by the detection device to the control device.
Die beschriebene Erfindung und die beschriebenen vorteilhaften Weiterbildungen der Erfindung stellen auch in beliebiger Kombination miteinander vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung dar.The described invention and the described advantageous developments of the invention are also in any combination with each other advantageous developments of the invention.
Hinsichtlich weiterer Vorteile und vorteilhafter Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung wird auf die Unteransprüche sowie die Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels unter Bezugnahme auf die beiliegende Zeichnung verwiesen.With regard to further advantages and advantageous embodiments of the invention, reference is made to the dependent claims and the description of an embodiment with reference to the accompanying drawings.
