Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for merging and depositing folded printed products in shed formation on a conveyor device, with a cylindrical drum rotatable about a horizontal axis, which has a plurality of compartments which open to the drum circumference and are curved in the drum cross section to accommodate one g ⁇ each -folded printed product is equipped, the printed products are fed to the compartments on the drum circumference and placed in the lower half of the drum rotation on the conveyor.
- Devices of this type which are used to form a stream of shingles, are predominantly used in folders of printing machines in order to pick up the printed products folded by folding cylinders and to place them one after the other in shed formation on a conveyor belt.
- the invention aims to provide a device of the type specified in the introduction, which makes it possible to combine the products obtained from the two folding apparatuses into a single row arranged in scale form, in order in this way to have to provide the downstream processing machines only once .
- the device according to the invention is characterized in that the compartments of the drum are arranged side by side in two groups in the longitudinal direction of the drum and the compartments of the two groups alternate in the circumferential direction of the drum, the compartments of each group being aligned from an end face of the drum in alignment with an associated printed product -Infeed device extend inwards and overlap the compartments of the other group in a central section corresponding to the size of a printed product, and that each compartment is provided with a slide which is movable parallel to the drum axis and is biased against the drum end face and which runs from a drum end face which runs on a control curve
- the scanner can be moved towards the longitudinal center of the drum during a section of the drum rotation with displacement of the printed product into the overlapping section of the
- This construction makes it possible to combine the printed products emerging from two parallel folding devices in the form of a shingled stream into a single shingled stream.
- the high processing speed of the downstream processing machines can be exploited, e.g. up to 2 x 50,000 products / h, therefore can be up to 120,000 products / h.
- each section is a cam or the like in the area of entry of the individual printed products into the compartments. assigned to lifting the leading edge of each printed product in order to prevent the printed product from bumping against a specialist edge.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic section of a device according to the invention along the line II in FIG. 2,
- Figure 2 is a schematic front view of the device and
- Figure 3 shows a schematic development of the representation of Figure 2.
- the device has a rotatably mounted drum 1 with a cylindrical core 1 'and compartments 2 which extend radially away from it and have a substantially U-shaped cross section and open towards the drum circumference.
- the compartments 2 are arranged side by side over the drum length in two groups, the compartments of each group extending inwards from one end of the drum and the compartments of the other group overlapping in a central drum section which corresponds to the width of a printed product.
- the compartments 2 of the two groups are thus arranged alternately in the drum circumferential direction.
- FIG. 2 shows, in the direction of the drum axis, a closed drum section 3 is provided next to each compartment of the one group and extends to the other end of the drum.
- the folded printed products D which leave the folders (not shown) on conveyors in two parallel rows, are fed to the compartments 2 essentially horizontally in an upper drum peripheral section.
- the leading edges of the printed products D are raised immediately before entering the compartments by means of a cam 4, so that they do not hit the boundary edge of the adjacent compartments; In this way, the individual printed products enter the subjects of the assigned specialist groups one after the other.
- the slide 5 is actuated by a scanner 6, which rolls on a control cam 7 assigned to the drum end face, which causes the slider 5 to be progressively pushed inwards towards the transverse median plane of the drum during the rotation of the drum in the compartment.
- the printed products D contained in the compartments are centered in a row with respect to the transverse median plane of the drum and slide in the lower section of the drum rotation under the effect of gravity from the compartments 2 onto a downstream conveyor belt 8, on which they come to rest in scale formation.

Abstract
Le dispositif décrit comporte un tambour (1) cylindrique rotatif autour d'un axe horizontal, muni de plusieurs compartiments (2) recourbés ménagés dans la section du tambour pour recevoir chacun un produit imprimé plié, ces produits étant introduits individuellement dans les compartiments à la périphérie du tambour et déposés, dans la moitié inférieure de la rotation du tambour, sur la bande transporteuse; les compartiments (2) sont agencés côte à côte en deux groupes dans le sens longitudinal du tambour et les compartiments des deux groupes alternent mutuellement dans le sens circonférentiel du tambour, les compartiments de l'un des groupes s'étendant vers l'intérieur depuis un côté frontal du tambour en alignement avec un dispositif correspondant d'amenée du produit imprimé, et les compartiments de l'autre groupe se chevauchant dans une partie centrale. Chaque compartiment (2) est pourvu d'un coulisseau (5) précontraint contre le côté frontal du tambour, lequel coulisseau est déplaçable par un palpeur (6) passant sur une came de commande (7) pendant une partie de la rotation du tambour accompagnée d'une translation du produit inprimé (D) dans la section de chevauchement des deux groupes de compartiments.The device described comprises a cylindrical drum (1) rotating around a horizontal axis, provided with several curved compartments (2) arranged in the section of the drum to each receive a folded printed product, these products being introduced individually into the compartments at the periphery of the drum and deposited, in the lower half of the rotation of the drum, on the conveyor belt; the compartments (2) are arranged side by side in two groups in the longitudinal direction of the drum and the compartments of the two groups alternate mutually in the circumferential direction of the drum, the compartments of one of the groups extending inwards from a front side of the drum in alignment with a corresponding device for feeding the printed product, and the compartments of the other group overlapping in a central part. Each compartment (2) is provided with a slide (5) prestressed against the front side of the drum, which slide is movable by a feeler (6) passing over a control cam (7) during part of the rotation of the drum accompanied a translation of the inpressed product (D) in the overlapping section of the two groups of compartments.
