In den Fig. 1 und 2 ist eine Einrichtung 1 zur Durchführung des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens veranschaulicht. Diese Einrichtung 1 zum Beschneiden der offenen Seitenkanten von Büchern, Magazinen, Broschüren und Zeitschriften besteht aus einer in einer Vertikalebene eines etwa horizontalen Schneidtisches 22 antreibbares Messer 3 aufweisenden Schneidvorrichtung 2. Ein absenkbarer Messerbalken 25, an dem das Messer 3 (austauschbar) befestigt ist, übt eine scherenartige Bewegung aus, die an einer in den Schneidtisch 22 eingelassenen Schneidleiste 26 endet. Der Schneidtisch 22, der Teilfläche des ebenen Verarbeitungstisches 14 ist, befindet sich seitlich versetzt zu einer Positioniervorrichtung 7, welche ihrerseits um eine zur Fläche des Verarbeitungstisches 14 senkrechte Drehachse 24 und senkrecht hin und her zur Schneidebene der Schneidvorrichtung 2 antreibbar ist. Hierzu weist der Verarbeitungstisch 14, der auf dem Boden stehend ständerartig ausgebildet ist, eine schlitzartige Ausnehmung 27 auf, die von einer mit der Positioniervorrichtung 7 verbundenen Antriebswelle 28 durchsetzt wird. Der nicht dargestellte Antriebsmotor der Antriebswelle 28 ist an einem unterhalb des Verarbeitungstisches 14 parallel zur Ausnehmung 27 beweglichen schlittenartig geführten Gestell (nicht ersichtlich) befestigt. Auf den Verarbeitungstisch 14 in Fig. 1 schauend, dreht die Positioniervorrichtung 7 zur Durchführung des Beschnittes der Druckerzeugnisse schrittweise um jeweils 90° im Gegenuhrzeigersinn. Die im Verarbeitungstisch 14 geführte Positioniervorrichtung 7 besitzt zwei an der Drehachse 24 sich mit dem Rücken gegenüberliegende Einspannvorrichtungen 12, 13, in denen die gebundenen Druckerzeugnisse 4 bis 6 mit der gebundenen Seitenkante 23 eingespannt sind.
Gemäss den Fig. 1 und 2 besitzt jede der Einspannvorrichtungen 12, 13 eine in einer die schlitzartige Ausnehmung 27 aufweisenden Vertiefung 29 des Verarbeitungstisches 14 versenkte Aufspannplatte 16, die eine mit dem Verarbeitungstisch 14 bündige Aufspann- bzw. Auflageebene bildet.
Die an der Drehachse 24 sich flach gegenüberliegenden Aufspannplatten 16 sind durch einen in der Drehachse 24 etwa rechtwinklig zu den Aufspannplatten 16 angeordneten Verbindungssteg 30 mit einer beabstandeten Abstützplatte 31 verbunden, an der eine jeder Aufspannplatte 16 zugeordnete Schliess- und eine Oeffnungslage der Einspannvorrichtung 12, 13 versetzbare Druckplatte 32 geführt ist. Die den Einspanneinrichtungen 12, 13 jeweils zugewandte Seite des Verbindungssteges 30 bilden einen als Bezugskante für das Breitformat dienenden Anschlag 35 für die Bund voran zugeführten Druckerzeugnisse 4 bis 6 und weitere. Die Betätigung der Druckplatten 32 erfolgt durch die schematisch dargestellten, hydraulisch oder pneumatisch bzw. mechanisch oder elektromechanisch betätigbaren Kolben-Zylinder-Einheiten 33, die auf den Abstützplatten 31 befestigt sind. Das Antriebsaggregat der Kolben-Zylinder-Einheiten 33, die durch nicht veranschaulichte Ventile gesteuert sind, befindet sich am nicht sichtbaren schlittenartig geführten Gestell des Antriebsmotors der Positioniervorrichtung 7. Gemäss Darstellung in Fig. 1 sind zwei Druckerzeugnisse 5, 6 in der Schneidposition für Kopf- und Fusskante, in der sie durch einen vor der Schneidvorrichtung 2 angeordneten Pressbalken 34 jeweils vor dem Schneiden auf den Schneidtisch 22 gepresst werden. Der Pressbalken 34 ist in Zusammenwirkung mit der Schneidvorrichtung 2 und den Bewegungen der Positioniervorrichtung 7 gesteuert.
Die Beschickung der Positioniervorrichtung 7 über den Verarbeitungstisch 14 erfolgt etwa parallel zur Schneidebene der Schneidvorrichtung 2 durch eine etwa geradlinige Zuführbewegung, bei der beispielsweise ein abgesenkter Pressbalken 34 oder eine besonders dafür geeignete Seitenführung zuhilfe genommen werden könnte.
Die Druckerzeugnisse können im Verarbeitungstakt der Einrichtung 1 maschinell zugeführt werden, beispielsweise durch einen Lift, der die Druckerzeugnisse 40 gestapelt nach oben führt, wo sie bei Erreichen des Verarbeitungstisches 14 einzeln einer geöffneten Einspannvorrichtung 12, 13 der Positioniervorrichtung 7 zugestellt bzw. zugeschoben werden.
Die Arbeitsschritte der Positioniervorrichtung 7 erfolgen jeweils in einer 90°-Teildrehbewegung und senkrecht hin und her zur Schneidebene des Messers 3 der Schneidvorrichtung.
Gegenüberliegend von der Schneidvorrichtung 2 ist eine Auslage 21 angedeutet, durch welche die Druckerzeugnisse den Verarbeitungsprozess verlassen.
Die Druckerzeugnisse können auch an einer an der Drehachse 24 in Verarbeitungsrichtung und Auslage 270° von der Beschickungseinrichtung entfernten Auslage 21 dem Prozess entnommen werden.
Der Verarbeitungsprozess erfolgt mit einer programmierbaren Steuerung, die einen zwischen Einspannvorrichtungen 12, 13 bzw. Positioniervorrichtung 7 und Schneidvorrichtung 2 erforderlichen Arbeitstakt bestimmt. Dieser ist auszudehnen, wenn beispielsweise eine Beschickungseinrichtung zugeschaltet wird.
1 and 2 illustrate a device 1 for carrying out the method according to the invention. This device 1 for trimming the open side edges of books, magazines, brochures and magazines consists of a cutting device 2 having a knife 3 which can be driven in a vertical plane of an approximately horizontal cutting table 22. A lowerable knife bar 25 to which the knife 3 is (replaceably) attached, exerts a scissor-like movement which ends at a cutting bar 26 embedded in the cutting table 22. The cutting table 22, which is the partial surface of the flat processing table 14, is laterally offset from a positioning device 7, which in turn can be driven about an axis of rotation 24 perpendicular to the surface of the processing table 14 and perpendicularly back and forth to the cutting plane of the cutting device 2. For this purpose, the processing table 14, which is designed like a stand on the floor, has a slot-like recess 27, which is penetrated by a drive shaft 28 connected to the positioning device 7. The drive motor (not shown) of the drive shaft 28 is fastened to a frame (not visible) which is guided beneath the processing table 14 and is movable parallel to the recess 27. Looking at the processing table 14 in FIG. 1, the positioning device 7 gradually rotates counterclockwise by 90 ° in order to carry out the trimming of the printed products. The positioning device 7 guided in the processing table 14 has two clamping devices 12, 13 on the axis of rotation 24 which are opposite one another and in which the bound printed products 4 to 6 are clamped with the bound side edge 23.
1 and 2, each of the clamping devices 12, 13 has a clamping plate 16 sunk in a recess 29 of the processing table 14 which has the slot-like recess 27 and which forms a clamping or support plane which is flush with the processing table 14.
The clamping plates 16 lying flat on the axis of rotation 24 are connected by a connecting web 30 arranged approximately at right angles to the clamping plates 16 in the axis of rotation 24 to a spaced support plate 31 on which a closing position and an opening position of the clamping device 12, 13 assigned to each clamping plate 16 displaceable pressure plate 32 is guided. The side of the connecting web 30 facing the clamping devices 12, 13 form a stop 35, which serves as a reference edge for the wide format, for the printed products 4 to 6 fed in advance for the bundle and others. The pressure plates 32 are actuated by the schematically illustrated, hydraulically or pneumatically or mechanically or electromechanically actuable piston-cylinder units 33 which are fastened on the support plates 31. The drive assembly of the piston-cylinder units 33, which are controlled by valves (not shown), is located on the frame of the drive motor of the positioning device 7, which is not visible in a slide-like manner. As shown in FIG. 1, two printed products 5, 6 are in the cutting position for head and the base edge, in which they are pressed onto the cutting table 22 by a pressing bar 34 arranged in front of the cutting device 2 before cutting. The press beam 34 is controlled in cooperation with the cutting device 2 and the movements of the positioning device 7.
The positioning device 7 is loaded via the processing table 14 approximately parallel to the cutting plane of the cutting device 2 by an approximately rectilinear feed movement in which, for example, a lowered press beam 34 or a side guide which is particularly suitable for this purpose could be used.
The printed products can be fed mechanically to the device 1 in the processing cycle, for example by means of a lift, which leads the printed products 40 in a stacked manner, where, when they reach the processing table 14, they are individually fed or pushed to an open clamping device 12, 13 of the positioning device 7.
The working steps of the positioning device 7 each take place in a 90 ° partial rotary movement and perpendicularly back and forth to the cutting plane of the knife 3 of the cutting device.
A delivery unit 21 is indicated opposite the cutting device 2, through which the printed products leave the processing process.
The printed products can also be removed from the process at a delivery 21 located on the axis of rotation 24 in the processing direction and delivery 270 ° from the loading device.
The processing process is carried out with a programmable control which determines a working cycle required between clamping devices 12, 13 or positioning device 7 and cutting device 2. This should be extended if, for example, a loading device is switched on.

Die Fig. 3a bis 3f vermitteln in dieser Reihenfolge einen Verarbeitungsverlauf von Beginn einer Produktion mit drei gebundenen Druckerzeugnissen 4 bis 6 in Verbindung mit einer in Fig. 1 dargestellten Einrichtung 1.
Ueberdies zeigen diese Figuren in schematischer Form das Messer 3 einer Schneidvorrichtung 2 und die Positioniervorrichtung 7 der Einrichtung von oben betrachtet.
In Fig. 3a ist die Ausgangslage des Schneidprozesses gezeigt, d.h. das erste Druckerzeugnis 4 befindet sich in der ersten Einspanneinrichtung 12 in der Schneidposition der Kopfkante 9. Zuvor wurde das erste Druckerzeugnis 4 mit Rücksicht auf die Schneidvorrichtung 2 gemäss der gestrichelten Linien in einer Verarbeitungsebene 8 bzw. auf einem Verarbeitungstisch 14 der Positioniervorrichtung 7 gemäss Pfeil 15 leicht versetzt zugeführt. Diese Massnahme kann bei einer entsprechenden Konstruktion der Schneidvorrichtung 2 vernachlässigt werden und beeinträchtigt das vorgeschlagene Schneidverfahren nicht. Bei der Ausführung des Druckerzeugnisses 4 ist die mit der Positioniereinrichtung 7 verbundene erste Einspannvorrichtung 12 geöffnet und ihre Aufspannplatte 16 bildet mit der Zuführebene eine Verarbeitungsebene 8. Sofern die Druckerzeugnisse 4 bis 6 jeweils in einer versetzten Lage -wie oben beschrieben und gestrichelt gezeigt- in der ersten Einspannvorrichtung 12 eintreffen, dann ist eine grössere Zustellstrecke zur Schneidvorrichtung 2 hin erforderlich, als wenn sie nur um den abzutrennenden Abschnitt 17 d.h. geradlinig in einer der Einspannvorrichtungen 12, 13 eintreffen. Fig. 3a zeigt weiterhin das eingespannte Druckerzeugnis 4 im Schneidbereich.
Nach dem Trennen des Abschnittes 17 durch eine Schneidbewegung des Messers 3 wird das während dem ganzen Verarbeitungsvorgang eingespannte Druckerzeugnis 4 nach Anheben des Messers 3 in der Verarbeitungsebene 8 um 90° gedreht und in eine Lage versetzt, in der der Beschnitt der Frontseite vorgenommen werden kann. Bei diesem Schritt spielt die Breite des Druckerzeugnisses 4 eine Rolle, die die Länge der senkrecht zum Messer 3 oder der Schneidebene zurückzulegenden Zustellstrecke bestimmt. Zufälligerweise kann die Zustellstrecke Null sein, um die Frontkante 11 der Druckerzeugnisses 4 beschneiden zu können. Im vorliegenden Fall bedarf es einer Zurückversetzung des Druckerzeugnisses 4 bzw. der Positioniervorrichtung 7 vom Messer 3 aufgrund des Verhältnisses von Längs- und Seitenkante des Druckerzeugnisses. Die translatorische Bewegung ist durch Pfeil 18, die der drehenden Bewegung um 90° durch Pfeil 19 in Fig. 3b angedeutet.
Ein anschliessender Verarbeitungsschritt ist in Fig. 3c abgebildet. Nach dem Anheben des Messers 3 wurde das erste Druckerzeugnis 4 um weitere 90° gedreht und die Positioniervorrichtung 7 in eine Lage versetzt, in der die zweite Einspannvorrichtung 13 das nächstfolgende Druckerzeugnis 5 aufnehmen kann. Gemeinsam werden beide Druckerzeugnisse 4, 5 durch eine translatorische Bewegung in den Schneidbereich verlegt und dort an den Seitenkanten beschnitten, wobei bei Druckprodukt 4 jetzt die Fusskante 10 und bei Druckprodukt 5 die Kopfkante 9 beschnitten wird, sofern beide Druckerzeugnisse 4, 5 in der gleichen Lage - selbstverständlich bundvoran - der ersten 12 bzw. zweiten Einspannvorrichtung 13 zugeführt worden sind. Die beiden Pfeile in Fig. 3c weisen auf die zuvor durchgeführte Bewegung der Druckerzeugnisse 4, 5 hin, die sich durch ausgezogene 4 und strichpunktierte Linien 5 unterscheiden. Nach diesem Verarbeitungsschritt ist das erste Druckerzeugnis 4 fertiggestellt und könnte gemäss Pfeil 20 die Einrichtung 1 verlassen. Bei der vorliegenden Einrichtung 1 befindet sich jedoch die mit Pfeil 21 bezeichnete Auslage bei neun Uhr in Fig. 3d, die den Beschnitt der Frontkante 11 des zweiten Druckerzeugnisses 5 und die Entnahme des ersten Druckerzeugnisses 4 aus der Einspannvorrichtung 12 zeigt. Der Schneidvorgang an Druckerzeugnis 5 entspricht etwa dem Schneidvorgang an Druckerzeugnis 4 gemäss Fig. 3b.
Danach wird gemäss Fig. 3e die die Positioniervorrichtung 7 in die Lage versetzt, in der sie das dritte bzw. nächstolgende Druckerzeugnis 6 durch die (erste) Einspannvorrichtung 12 aufnehmen kann. Die Situation in Fig. 3e entspricht etwa einer Wiederholung von Fig. 3c.
In Fig. 3f wiederholt sich der Vorgang von Fig. 3d an den Druckerzeugnissen 5 und 6.
3a to 3f convey in this sequence a processing sequence from the start of a production with three bound printed products 4 to 6 in connection with a device 1 shown in FIG. 1.
Moreover, these figures show in schematic form the knife 3 of a cutting device 2 and the positioning device 7 of the device viewed from above.
3a shows the starting position of the cutting process, ie the first printed product 4 is located in the first clamping device 12 in the cutting position of the head edge 9. Previously, the first printed product 4 was in a processing plane 8 with regard to the cutting device 2 according to the dashed lines or on a processing table 14 of the positioning device 7 according to arrow 15 slightly offset. This measure can be neglected with a corresponding design of the cutting device 2 and does not impair the proposed cutting method. When the printed product 4 is executed, the first clamping device 12 connected to the positioning device 7 is opened and its clamping plate 16 forms a processing level 8 with the feed plane 8. If the printed products 4 to 6 are each in an offset position - as described above and shown in broken lines - in the If the first clamping device 12 arrive, then a larger feed distance to the cutting device 2 is required than if they only arrive in a straight line in one of the clamping devices 12, 13 around the section 17 to be separated. 3a also shows the clamped printed product 4 in the cutting area.
After the section 17 has been separated by a cutting movement of the knife 3, the printed product 4 clamped in during the entire processing operation, after lifting the knife 3 in the processing plane 8, is rotated by 90 ° and placed in a position in which the front can be trimmed. In this step, the width of the printed product 4 plays a role, which determines the length of the feed path to be covered perpendicular to the knife 3 or the cutting plane. It happens that the infeed path can be zero in order to be able to trim the front edge 11 of the printed product 4. In the present case, it is necessary to reset the printed product 4 or the positioning device 7 from the knife 3 due to the ratio of the longitudinal and side edges of the printed product. The translatory movement is indicated by arrow 18, that of the rotating movement by 90 ° by arrow 19 in Fig. 3b.
A subsequent processing step is shown in Fig. 3c. After the knife 3 was raised, the first printed product 4 was rotated by a further 90 ° and the positioning device 7 was placed in a position in which the second clamping device 13 can receive the next printed product 5. Together, both printed products 4, 5 are moved by a translational movement into the cutting area and trimmed there on the side edges, the foot edge 10 being printed now for print product 4 and the head edge 9 being printed for printed product 5, provided that both printed products 4, 5 are in the same position - Of course, in advance - the first 12 or second clamping device 13 have been fed. The two arrows in FIG. 3 c indicate the previously performed movement of the printed products 4, 5, which differ by solid 4 and dash-dotted lines 5. After this processing step, the first printed product 4 is finished and could leave the device 1 according to arrow 20. In the present device 1, however, the delivery indicated by arrow 21 is at nine o'clock in FIG. 3d, which shows the trimming of the front edge 11 of the second printed product 5 and the removal of the first printed product 4 from the clamping device 12. The cutting process on printed product 5 corresponds approximately to the cutting process on printed product 4 according to FIG. 3b.
Thereafter, according to FIG. 3e, the positioning device 7 is placed in the position in which it can hold the third or next printed product 6 by the (first) clamping device 12. The situation in FIG. 3e corresponds approximately to a repetition of FIG. 3c.
The process of FIG. 3d is repeated in FIG. 3f on the printed products 5 and 6.
