Definitions
- the present invention relates to a clamp for holding flat objects according to the preamble of claim 1.
- a generic clamp designed in the manner of pliers is disclosed in Swiss Patent No. 569 197 and in the corresponding US Pat. No. 3,948,551. It has a clamping tongue fixedly arranged on a holding part.
- a clamping jaw can be pivoted about an axis running at right angles to the clamping tongue from an open position into a clamping position in which it forms a clamping gap with the clamping tongue.
- the clamping tongue and the clamping jaw can be moved relative to one another in the extension of the clamping gap away from one another in the open position and against one another in their clamping position. This makes it necessary for the clamp to be turned 90 ° out of or into the area defined by the object when opening and closing.
- this known clamp has particular advantages. It is self-locking and self-holding, it is practically not bulky compared to the thickness of the flat objects and accordingly finds space both in scale formations of the objects and in the buffering or stacking of the objects - with practically the same space requirement. In addition, it has such a low weight that it - if necessary - can be carried and held by the object itself.
- the clamp according to the invention it is no longer necessary to turn the clamp according to the invention when opening and closing. It is simple in construction, cheap to manufacture and extremely easy to use. In addition, the clamping jaw is held in the clamping position by self-locking; Locking elements are not necessary.
- the slim design of the clamp allows the objects held by the clamp to be buffered in the smallest space, while maintaining the individualization of the objects; i.e. each item is individually captured and can therefore be handled individually.
- the terminal can also be opened if adjacent terminals are adjacent to one another in a buffer.
- 1 is a view of a clamp according to the invention in the open position
- FIG. 2 shows a side view of the clamp shown in FIG. 1 in the closed position
- FIG. 3 in a section along the line III-III of Figure 1, the clamp shown there in the open position.
- FIGS. 1 to 3 shows a side view of part of a device with a plurality of clamps arranged one behind the other according to FIGS. 1 to 3, each of the clamps being supplied with a printed product;
- FIG. 5 shows, in the same representation as in FIG. 4, the part of the device shown there with a clamp during the closing process
- Fig. 6 in the same representation as in Figure 5, the clamp shown there in the clamping position for holding the printed product.
- FIGS. 4 to 6 shows a further part of the device shown in FIGS. 4 to 6 with a clamp holding a printed product at the beginning of the opening process;
- FIG. 8 shows the part of the device shown in FIG. 7 with a partially opened clamp
- FIG. 9 in the same representation as in Figures 7 and 8, the terminal shown there in the open position. 10 shows a further part of the device shown in FIGS. 4 to 9, with a plurality of clamps arranged one behind the other, each holding a printed product and abutting one another for buffering;
- Fig. 11 in view and partly in section along the line XI-XI of Fig. 12, a drive device for the clamps;
- FIG. 12 is a top view of the drive device shown in FIG. 11.
- the clamp 10 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 has an essentially cuboid supporting part 12. Seen in the longitudinal direction of the support part 12, guide lugs 14 are formed on its two ends, which are intended to engage in guide rails 16 which are C-shaped in cross section and open to one another. The clamp 10 is thereby slidably displaceable in the guide rails 16.
- a flat, essentially rectangular clamping tongue 20 bears on a side surface 18 of the supporting part 12 and is fastened to the supporting part 12 by means of suitable fastening means 22, for example screws or rivets.
- the side surface 18 lies in a plane running at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the guide rails 16, so that the clamping tongue 20 projects over the guide rails 16 in a cantilever manner and over the support part 12. 2 and 3, the clamping tongue 20 is bent around a bending line 24 running parallel to the longitudinal direction of the support part 12, so that the free end 20 'of the clamping tongue 20 is approximately in one plane lies, which is defined by the opposite surface of the side surface 18 of the cross-sectionally shaped support member 12.
- the clamping tongue 20 has a triangular passage 26 in its part projecting above the supporting part 12 to save weight. Adjacent to its free end 20 ′, the clamping tongue 20 is provided with two adhesive covering strips 28 on the side lying radially inward with respect to the bend.
- the support part 12 has a guide gap 30 which is penetrated by a flat, essentially rectangular, curved clamping jaw 32. This can be moved from an open position 34 shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 by shifting in the closing direction S into a clamping position 36 shown in FIG. 2.
- the clamping jaw 32 is bent around an axis running parallel to the longitudinal direction of the supporting part 12 in the manner of a circular cylinder segment and is guided on the supporting part 12 in such a way that the clamping tongue 20 is located on the radially inner side of the clamping jaw 32.
- the guide gap 30 is shaped in accordance with the curvature of the clamping jaw 32.
- the clamping jaw 32 From its free end 32 ′ facing the clamping tongue 20, the clamping jaw 32 is provided with an approximately triangular cut 38, whereby two clamping legs 40 of the clamping jaw 32 are formed, which at their end region adjoining the free end 32 ′ form a clamping foot 42 are cranked against the bend of the jaw 32.
- the clamping feet 42 In the clamping position 36, the clamping feet 42 form a clamping gap 44 with the clamping tongue 20.
- the clamping jaw 32 In the open position 34, the clamping jaw 32 is in a position in which the clamping feet 42 are located on the supporting part 12.
- the clamping feet 42 move along a circular movement path 46 which cuts the clamping tongue 20 at an acute angle a.
- the movement path 46 is a circular path, the center of which lies in the axis of the bend of the clamping jaw 32 and the radius of which corresponds to the distance from the axis to the clamping jaw 32.
- the angle ⁇ is approximately 30 °. But it can also be smaller or larger; however, it is preferably less than 45 °.
- the clamping feet 42 move along their path of movement 46 until they come to rest on the adhesive covering strip 28 or on a flat object lying against the clamping tongue 20.
- the clamping feet 42 slide along the outside of the flat product or the adhesive covering strip 28 facing it, towards the free end 20 'of the clamping tongue 20, whereby the clamping feet 42 move out of the path 46, which they would otherwise follow. be deflected.
- the clamping jaw 32 is made of self-resilient material, for example of spring steel sheet and is inevitably guided in the guide gap 30 transversely to the latter, the clamping feet 42 are thereby elastically pushed back, whereby a clamping force K is generated, which the flat object on the clamping tongue 20 and in particular the Adhesive covering strip 28 presses on.
- a clamping force K is generated, which the flat object on the clamping tongue 20 and in particular the Adhesive covering strip 28 presses on.
- the acute angle ⁇ no or only a small force component can act on the clamping jaw 32 against the closing direction S. This force component is caused by the frictional force in the guide gap 30 without teres added, so that the clamp 10 is self-holding in the clamping position 36.
- the clamping jaw 32 is provided with lateral projections 50 and bent in a tube-like manner.
- the projections 50 are intended to cooperate with an opening element in order to move the clamping jaw 32 from the clamping position 36 against the closing direction S into the open position 34.
- the support part 12 consists of a support body 52 with a recess 54, into which a wedge body 56 is inserted, which engages behind the clamping tongue 20 with a retaining lug 58 and is held in the recess 54 in this way.
- the support body 52 and the wedge body 56 delimit the guide gap 30.
- FIG. 4 to 6 show part of an apparatus 60 for processing printed products 62 such as newspapers, magazines and the like.
- a transfer section 64 is shown, in which printed products 62 fed from a belt conveyor 66 are taken over by means of clamps 10 for further transport.
- the guide rails 16 run in the vertical direction and the clamps 10 which are arranged one behind the other and abut one another are continuously moved forward in a conveying direction F from below towards above. Seen in the direction of conveyance F, the clamping tongues 20 of the clamps 10 are trailing with respect to the clamping jaws 32.
- the free end 20 'of the clamping tongues 20 faces the belt conveyor 66, which is intended to transport the printed products 62 in the feed direction Z in a scale formation, in which each printed product 62 rests on the trailing one.
- a closing device 68 for the terminals 10 is arranged on the regarding tion rails 16 opposite the belt conveyor 66. It has an endless traction element 70 which is driven in the direction of arrow A at a speed v and which is greater than the speed v ⁇ at which the clamps 10 are moved.
- Cams 72 which are intended to interact with the end 48 of a clamping jaw 32, are arranged one behind the other on the traction element 70.
- the feed speed of the belt conveyor 66 and the speed Vf at which the clamps 10 are moved / are coordinated with one another such that a printed product 62 is fed to each clamp 10.
- a clamping tongue 20 engages under the printed product 62 projecting over the end of the belt conveyor 66 and lifts it in the conveying direction F.
- a cam 72 of the closing device 68 strikes the end 48 of the relevant clamping jaw 32 and moves it from the open position 34 in the closing direction S; this is due to the difference between the speed v of the cams 72 and the speed v ⁇ of the terminals 10.
- FIG. 5 shows the point in time during the closing process of the clamp 10 at which the clamping foot 32 comes into contact with the printed product 62.
- the printed product 62 does not yet lie flat against the clamping tongue 20, it can be pushed further into the clamping mouth in the feed direction Z until it is brought into contact with the adhesive covering strip 28 by the clamping foot 42.
- the clamping leg 40 which is lengthening in the process, is tensioned in the manner of a spiral spring, as a result of which clamping force is built up with which the printed product 62 is held by the clamp 10 for further transport, as is shown in FIG. 6 is shown.
- the adhesive effect of the adhesive covering strips 28 on the printed product 62 is greater than the sliding friction between the clamping feet 42 and the printed product 62. If necessary, the clamping foot 42 can be provided with a sliding coating. As can also be seen in FIG. 6, the clamps 10 are each in the closed position 36 when the end of the closing device 68 is reached.
- FIGS. 7 to 9 show a further part, a delivery section 74, of the device 60 already mentioned in connection with FIGS. 4 to 6.
- the guide rails 16 run in the horizontal direction and the clamps 10 are used to transport the printed products 62 directed towards the bottom in a hanging position.
- the clamps 10 are moved in the conveying direction F.
- the clamping jaws 32 When entering the dispensing section 74, the clamping jaws 32 are in the clamping position 36 and hold a printed product 62 in the clamping gap 44 formed by them and the relevant clamping tongue 20.
- a wedge-shaped opening link 76 is arranged on the two guide rails 16.
- FIG. 7 shows the point in time at which the projections 50 of a clamp 10 touch the opening link 76.
- the jaw 32 is pulled up, whereby the clamping force K is reduced.
- 8 shows the point in time at which the clamping foot 42 releases the printed product 62, so that it is handed down to the next processing station.
- the clamping jaw 32 is then moved completely into the open position 34, as shown in FIG. 9.
- the clamp 10 is ready to receive a printed product 62 again.
- the friction conditions in the guide gap 30 are sufficient to hold the clamping jaw 32 in the open position 34.
- the 10 shows a buffer section 78 of the device 60. This is located, for example, between the take-over section 64 shown in FIGS. 4 to 6 and the delivery section 74 shown in FIGS. 7 to 9.
- the guide rails 16 likewise run horizontally Direction and the terminals 10, each equipped with a printed product 62, abut one another.
- This figure shows in particular that the clamps 10, as seen in the longitudinal direction of the guide rails 16, are of very slim design, so that they hardly apply in relation to the thickness of the printed products 62 they hold. This enables a high packing density to be achieved in the buffer section.
- a drive section 80 of the device 60 is shown in a view and a top view.
- the bottom 82 of the guide rails 16 with a C-shaped cross section is removed.
- the lateral legs 84 connected to one another in the remaining sections by the base 82 also extend continuously through the drive section 80 in order to close the clamps 10 to lead.
- the support parts 12 of the clamps 10 engage with their guide lugs 14 in the guide rails 16 and their end faces 86 are intended to cooperate in the drive section 80 with driving bodies 88 of a drive device 90; a drive device 90 is assigned to each guide rail 16.
- One of the symmetrically constructed and arranged drive devices 90 is described below.
- a large number of driving bodies 88 are arranged on a self-contained chain 92 which is guided around two parallel-axis chain wheels 94 spaced apart in the direction of the guide rails 16.
- One of these chain wheels 94 is driven in a rotating manner in the conveying direction F by means of a drive unit, not shown.
- the conveying strand 96 of the chain 92 runs parallel to the relevant guide rail 16 and is arranged with respect to the latter in such a way that the corresponding entrainment bodies 88 engage between the legs 84 in the guide rail 16 and rest frictionally on the end faces 86 of the supporting parts 12 of the clamps 10.
- a pressure and guide rail 98 arranged between the chain wheels 94 ensures that the pressure force is maintained.
- the clamps 10 are freely movable outside the drive device 90 in the guide rails 16, so that they can be at a different distance from one another.
- a drive section 80 can, for example, overlap with a take-over section 64 or a delivery section 74 in order to move the clamps 10 in the conveying direction F in these sections. It is also conceivable for the clamping jaws to be flat and for the clamping shoes 42 to be moved along a straight line of motion when the clamp is being closed and opened. In this case, too, the trajectory forms an acute angle with the clamping tongue.
- terminals 10 and the device 60 can be designed differently.
- Clamps according to the invention are suitable, for example, for use in devices such as are disclosed in WO patent applications PCT / CH97 / 00200 and PCT / CH97 / 00201.
- Printed products 62 are mentioned in connection with the exemplary embodiment shown as an example of flexible, flat objects.
- the clamps 10 according to the invention are also suitable for holding rigid, flat objects or different flexible flat objects.
- the objects can have different thicknesses.
- the clamping force K also increases with increasing thickness.
- the clamping tongue can be designed to be inherently elastic and, for this purpose, can be made of spring steel sheet, for example. Finally, it would also be conceivable to design the clamping tongue to be elastic and the clamping jaw to be rigid.
