Definitions
- the present invention relates to a folding device according to The preamble of claim 1.
- a folding device according to The preamble of claim 1.
- Such a device is known.
- a pair of feed rollers rotates at constant speed and conveys them individually fed sheets into a folding pocket inclined upwards with one stroke.
- the front sheet edge touches the stop the floor bulges downwards against the feed gap between the lower feed roller and a folding roller.
- the sheet is picked up and folded there and transported downwards.
- the present invention has for its object a to develop such device so that a higher working speed can be reached. This task will solved by the characterizing features of claim 1.
- the device 1 according to FIG. 1 has a pair of feed rollers 10, 11 with horizontal axes of rotation arranged vertically one above the other 12, 13.
- the lower roller 10 is by a servo motor 14 driven with coupled angle encoder 15.
- the common Tangential plane 16 in the nip 17 of the rollers 10, 11 is horizontal.
- the pair of rollers 10, 11 promotes the in the feed nip 17 detected sheet 18 in an inclined to the plane 16 arranged folding pocket 19 with an adjustable end stop 20 for the leading edge 21 of the sheet 18.
- the roller 10 and thus also the roller 11 are accelerated and then decelerated to a peripheral speed which is substantially lower than the feed speed v 0 of the sheet 18
- the course of the peripheral speed v of the rollers 10, 11 of an exemplary embodiment is shown in FIG. 3 as a function of time.
- the feed speed v 0 of the paper sheets 18 is 6 m / s in this example.
- the peripheral speed v is first accelerated to 9 m / s and then braked to a little less than 3 m / s. In the area of this lowest speed, the front edge 21 strikes the stop 20.
- the peripheral speed v is then increased to approximately 7 m / s and the sheet 18 is again reduced to the feed speed v 0 .
- the area A enclosed by the curve shown above the feed speed of 6 m / s must be at least as large as the area B below 6 m / s.
- the device can be attached directly to a printing press, which was not useful in the folding devices known today because of their low working speed. In this case, the device is synchronized with the printing press. If it is operated separately, a light barrier can be arranged, for example, directly in front of the feed gap 17, which in each case scans the front edge 21 of the sheet 18. Because the acceleration of the sheets 18 creates a gap between successive sheets 18, a simple synchronization with the feed cycle is possible. By reducing the velocity of the attack, the noise is also reduced. Damage and crumpling of the sheets are largely avoided.
- an additional device is indicated, with which the stop speed on the stop 20 further can be reduced.
- the stop 20 is on a carriage 28 mounted on a guide 29 parallel to the longitudinal extent the folding pocket 19 is displaceable.
- a servo drive 30 which for example in function of the with Angle encoder 15 controlled angle of rotation of the roller 10 controlled is, the stop 20 shortly before arrival of the leading edge 21 in the feed direction A to, for example, half the peripheral speed v the roller 10 accelerates at this time and only braked after opening and back in the basic position is retracted.
- FIG. 1 A further embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG.
- the folding pocket 19 is shortened and the stop 20 replaced by a pair of rollers 35, 36.
- the axes 37, 38 of the rollers 35, 36 are parallel to the axes 12, 13, 24.
- the common tangential plane 39 of the rollers 35, 36 in their feed gap 40 intersects the plane 16 an acute angle ⁇ .
- At least one of the rollers 35, 36 is by a servo motor 41 with a coupled angle encoder 42 driven.
- the rollers run 37, 38 initially with the same peripheral speed as the rollers 10, 11 until the sheet 18 is gripped in the feed nip 40 is. Then they are together with the rollers 10, 11, 23 braked and at a predetermined, adjustable angle of rotation the roller 10 stopped and then reversed. she then run at the same peripheral speed as the rollers 10, 11, 23 but in the opposite direction.
- This embodiment has the advantage of being even easier is adaptable to other sheet formats and with it too very delicate sheets of paper, for example very thin and light wrinkled sheets can be folded easily.
- FIG. 4 shows a diagram of the peripheral speeds of the rollers 10, 11, 23 on the one hand (curve C) and of the rollers 35, 36 (curve D).
- all the rollers 10, 11, 23, 35, 36 are first accelerated from the feed speed v 0 of 6 m / s to a peripheral speed v of 12 m / s and then braked to a standstill.
- the rollers 10, 11, 23 are then accelerated again to the initial speed v 0 and the rollers 35, 36 rotate synchronously in the opposite direction at the same speed.
- the sheet 18 is conveyed and folded synchronously into the feed nip 22 by both pairs of rollers 10, 11 and 35, 36.
- the front edge 21 of the sheet 18 leaves the rollers 35, 36, whereupon they are braked again and accelerated in the original direction of rotation to synchronize with the rollers 10, 11, 23.
- all rollers 10, 11, 23, 35, 36 run synchronously again.
- the area A In order to be able to feed the sheets 18 without a distance, the area A must also be at least as large as the area B here.
