Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Leitstand einer Druckmaschine nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a control station of a printing press according to the preamble of claim 1.

Als farbliche Referenz bei der Ausführung eines Druckauftrags auf einer Druckmaschine, wie z. B. auf einer Rollenrotationsdruckmaschine oder auf einer Bogendruckmaschine, dient nach der Praxis üblicherweise ein auf einem Farbtintenstrahldrucker angefertigtes Referenzmuster, wobei ein Drucker die auf der Druckmaschine gedruckten Druckexemplare mit diesem Referenzmuster an einem Leitstand der Druckmaschine vergleicht. Solche auf einem Farbtintenstrahldrucker geduckten Referenzmuster bezeichnet man auch als Hardcopyproof. Um einen von einer Raumbeleuchtung unabhängigen, visuellen Vergleich zwischen den gedruckten Druckexemplaren und dem als farbliche Referenz dienenden Hardcopyproof zu ermöglichen, ist dem Leitstand der Druckmaschine mindestens eine Normlichtquelle zugeordnet, mit Hilfe derer der Leitstand zumindest partiell ausgeleuchtet werden kann.As a color reference when executing a print job on a printing press, such as. B. on a web-fed rotary printing press or on a sheet-fed printing press, is usually used in practice on a reference ink sample made on a color inkjet printer, with a printer comparing the printed copies on the printing press with this reference pattern at a control station of the printing press. Such reference patterns printed on a color inkjet printer are also known as hard copy proofs. In order to enable a visual comparison, independent of room lighting, between the printed copies and the hard copy proof serving as a color reference, the control center of the printing press is assigned at least one standard light source, with the aid of which the control center can be at least partially illuminated.

Weiterhin ist es aus der Praxis bereits bekannt, zusätzlich zu dem oder als Ersatz für das auf dem Farbtintenstrahldrucker angefertigte Hardcopyproof eine farbliche Referenz auf einem farbverbindlichen Monitor zu visualisieren. Die Visualisierung einer farblichen Referenz auf einem farbverbindlichen Monitor wird auch als Softproof bezeichnet. Der zuverlässige visuelle Vergleich zwischen den gedruckten Druckexemplaren und einem als farbliche Referenz dienenden Softproof bereitet jedoch an aus der Praxis bekannten Druckmaschinenleitständen Schwierigkeiten, da die Helligkeit und/oder der Kontrast von farbverbindlichen Monitoren eingeschränkt ist.Furthermore, it is already known from practice to visualize a color reference on a color-binding monitor in addition to or as a replacement for the hard copy proof made on the color inkjet printer. The visualization of a color reference on a color-binding monitor is also referred to as softproof. However, the reliable visual comparison between the printed copies and a soft proof serving as a color reference causes difficulties for printing press control stations known from practice, since the brightness and / or the contrast of color-binding monitors is restricted.

Aus der DE 10 2006 038 200 A1 ist ein Leitstand einer Druckmaschine bekannt, der mindestens einen farbverbindlichen Monitor zur Visualisierung mindestens eines als farbliche Referenz für in einem Druckprozess gedruckte Druckexemplare dienenden Softproof und mindestens eine Normlichtquelle zur zumindest partiellen Ausleuchtung des Leitstands umfasst. Nach der DE 10 2006 038 200 A1 ist eine von der oder jeder Normlichtquelle erzeugte Leuchtstärke bzw. Leuchtintensität veränderbar, um so die von der oder jeder Normlichtquelle erzeugte Leuchtstärke bzw. Leuchtintensität an eine mit dem oder jedem farbverbindlichen Monitor erzielbare Helligkeit und/oder einen mit dem oder jedem farbverbindlichen Monitor erzielbaren Kontrast in der Visualisierung des Softproof anzupassen.From the DE 10 2006 038 200 A1 A control center of a printing press is known, which has at least one color-binding monitor for visualizing at least one softproof serving as a color reference for printed copies printed in a printing process and at least one standard light source for at least partial Illumination of the control center includes. After DE 10 2006 038 200 A1 A luminosity or luminous intensity generated by the or each standard light source can be changed, in order to adjust the luminosity or luminous intensity generated by the or each standard light source to a brightness that can be achieved with the or each color-binding monitor and / or a contrast that can be achieved with the or each color-binding monitor adapt to the visualization of the softproof.

Bei dem aus der DE 10 2006 038 200 A1 bekannten Leitstand ist die oder jede Normlichtquelle oberhalb des farbverbindlichen Monitors positioniert. Trotz einer zwischen der oder jeder Normlichtquelle und dem farbverbindlichen Monitor angeordneten Blende lässt sich bei einem derartigen Leitstand nicht komplett ausschließen, dass die oder jede Normlichtquelle den farbverbindlichen Monitor mit beleuchtet. Dann, wenn von der oder jeder Normlichtquelle emittiertes Normlicht auf einen farbverbindlichen Monitor eines Softproofsystems fällt, bereitet der zuverlässige Vergleich zwischen einem als farbliche Referenz dienenden Softproof und einem gedruckten Druckexemplar Schwierigkeiten. Ebenso bereitet es Schwierigkeiten, andere Monitore, auf die von der oder jeder Normlichtquelle emittiertes Normlicht fällt, zuverlässig abzulesen.The one from the DE 10 2006 038 200 A1 known control center, the or each standard light source is positioned above the color-binding monitor. Despite a diaphragm arranged between the or each standard light source and the color-binding monitor, it cannot be completely ruled out in such a control center that the or each standard light source also illuminates the color-binding monitor. If standard light emitted by the or each standard light source falls on a color-binding monitor of a softproof system, the reliable comparison between a softproof serving as a color reference and a printed printed copy is difficult. It is also difficult to reliably read other monitors on which the standard light emitted by the or each standard light source falls.

Das Dokument DE 101 21 984 A1 offenbart ein Softproofsystem, bei welchem ein Softproofmonitor in der Ebene einer Auflagenfläche für die Druckexemplare angeordnet ist, wobei der Softproofmonitor von vorne oder von hinten beleuchtet werden kann.The document DE 101 21 984 A1 discloses a softproof system in which a softproof monitor is arranged in the plane of a support surface for the printed copies, the softproof monitor being able to be illuminated from the front or from the rear.

Das Gebrauchsmuster DE 200 00 831 U1 betrifft eine Einrichtung zur Qualitätskontrolle an Druckexemplaren mit einem Stellantrieb zur Einstellung von Höhe und Neigung einer Auflage, wobei an die Auflage eine Beleuchtungseinrichtung gekoppelt werden kann.The utility model DE 200 00 831 U1 relates to a device for quality control of printed copies with an actuator for adjusting the height and inclination of a support, wherein a lighting device can be coupled to the support.

Die US 2006/0280360 A1 offenbart eine Vorrichtung zur Farbkalibrierung von großen Farbdisplays, wobei zur Farbkalibrierung das vom zu kalibrierenden Display emittierte Licht von einem Sensor zur Farbmessung erfasst wird.The US 2006/0280360 A1 discloses a device for color calibration of large color displays, the light emitted by the display to be calibrated being detected by a sensor for color measurement for color calibration.

Es besteht Bedarf an einem Leitstand einer Druckmaschine, bei welchem einerseits bedruckte Druckexemplare mit Hilfe einer Normlichtquelle normgerecht ausgeleuchtet werden können, bei welchem jedoch andererseits einen Normlichtemission in Richtung auf Monitore verhindert werden kann.There is a need for a control center of a printing press, in which on the one hand printed printed copies can be illuminated in accordance with the standards with the aid of a standard light source, but on the other hand in which a standard light emission in the direction of monitors can be prevented.

Hiervon ausgehend liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung das Problem zugrunde, einen neuartigen Leitstand einer Druckmaschine zu schaffen.Proceeding from this, the present invention is based on the problem of creating a new control center of a printing press.

Dieses Problem wird durch einen Leitstand gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst. Erfindungsgemäß ist der mindestens eine farbverbindliche Monitor in vertikaler Erstreckung oberhalb der und beabstandet zur Pultoberfläche angeordnet, wobei die mindestens eine Normlichtquelle des Normlichtsystems zwischen einer Pultoberfläche des Leitstands, die der Aufnahme gedruckte Druckexemplare dient, und dem oder jedem Monitor angeordnet.This problem is solved by a control center according to claim 1. According to the invention, the at least one color-binding monitor is arranged in a vertical extension above and at a distance from the desk surface, the at least one standard light source of the standard lighting system being arranged between a desk surface of the control station, which is used for recording printed copies, and the or each monitor.

Beim erfindungsgemäßen Leitstand ist mindestens eine Normlichtquelle des Normlichtsystems zwischen einer Pultoberfläche des Leitstands und dem oder jedem farbverbindlichen Monitor angeordnet. Hiermit kann einerseits eine ausreichende normgerechte Beleuchtung gedruckter Druckexemplare gewährleistet werden, andererseits wird vermieden, dass eine signifikante Menge des Normlichts auf Monitore fällt. Vorzugsweise ist hierzu zwischen dem oder jedem Monitor und der oder jeder Normlichtquelle eine Blende positioniert.In the control center according to the invention, at least one standard light source of the standard light system is arranged between a desk surface of the control center and the or each color-binding monitor. On the one hand, this can ensure adequate, standardized lighting of printed copies, and on the other hand it prevents a significant amount of standard light from falling on monitors. For this purpose, an aperture is preferably positioned between the or each monitor and the or each standard light source.

Eine weitere erfindungsgemäße Ausführung sieht vor, den Monitor beweglich zu montieren und die Normlichtquelle so anzuordnen, dass sie sich synchron mit einer Bewegung bzw. einer Verschiebung mitbewegt.A further embodiment according to the invention provides for the monitor to be mounted movably and for the standard light source to be arranged in such a way that it also moves synchronously with a movement or a displacement.

Dabei ist es besonders vorteilhaft, den Monitor oberhalb der Pultfläche zumindest annähernd parallel zu dem auf der Pultfläche liegenden Exemplar auszurichten, wobei die Anzeigerichtung zum Betrachtungsstandpunkt des Bedieners hin ausgerichtet und die Normlichtquelle an der Rückseite des Monitors angeordnet sowie zur Beleuchtung des Druck-Exemplars zur Pultfläche hin ausgerichtet ist. Der Monitor "fliegt" über der Pultfläche und dem darauf liegenden Exemplar.
Die Monitordarstellung (Softproof) und das gedruckte Papier-Exemplar können dadurch vorteilhaft unter sehr ähnlichem Betrachtungswinkel und Betrachtungsabstand begutachtet und verglichen werden. Der selbstleuchtende Monitor wird dabei vom Normlicht nicht beleuchtet, es wird vielmehr lediglich das Druckexemplar beleuchtet.
Die Normlichtquelle kann sehr klein und damit leicht dimensioniert werden (Bewegbarkeit, Kosten), da sie mit dem Monitor in den Bereich verschoben werden kann, den der Betrachter gerade begutachten möchte.It is particularly advantageous to align the monitor above the desk surface at least approximately parallel to the copy lying on the desk surface, the display direction being oriented towards the operator's point of view and the standard light source being arranged on the rear of the monitor and for illuminating the printed copy to the desk surface is aligned. The monitor "flies" over the desk surface and the copy lying on it.
The monitor display (softproof) and the printed paper copy can thus advantageously be examined and compared from a very similar viewing angle and viewing distance. The self-illuminating monitor is not illuminated by the standard light, rather it only illuminates the printed copy.
The standard light source can be very small and therefore easily dimensioned (mobility, costs), since it can be moved with the monitor into the area that the viewer is about to examine.

Bevorzugte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen und der nachfolgenden Beschreibung. Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung werden, ohne hierauf beschränkt zu sein, an Hand der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Dabei zeigt:

Preferred developments of the invention result from the subclaims and the following description. Exemplary embodiments of the invention are explained in more detail with reference to the drawing, without being restricted to this. It shows:

a schematic representation of a control station according to the invention of a printing press and
Fig. 2:
a schematic representation of another control center according to the invention of a printing press.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine schematisierte Darstellung eines erfindungsgemäßen Leitstands 1 einer Druckmaschine, wobei der Leitstand 1 eine Pultoberfläche 2 aufweist, die der Aufnahme gedruckter Druckexemplare 6 dient. Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of a control station 1 according to the invention of a printing press, the control station 1 having a desk surface 2, which is used to hold printed copies 6.

Vorzugsweise ist in die Pultoberfläche 2 eine wannenartige Vertiefung zur Aufnahme der gedruckten Druckexemplare 6 integriert.A trough-like depression for receiving the printed copies 6 is preferably integrated into the desk surface 2.

Der erfindungsgemäße Leitstand 1 umfasst ein Normlichtsystem mit mindestens einer Normlichtquelle 4, um die wannenartige Vertiefung der Pultoberfläche 2 und damit in der wannenartigen Vertiefung der Pultoberfläche 2 aufgenommene Druckexemplare 6 normgerecht auszuleuchten. Eine Normlichtquelle 4 verfügt über eine Farbtemperatur von näherungsweise 5000 K und eine Intensität von in etwa 2000 Ix. Von der oder jeder Normlichtquelle 4 des Normlichtsystems imitiertes Normlicht ist in Fig. 1 als Normlichtemission 5 visualisiert.The control station 1 according to the invention comprises a standard light system with at least one standard light source 4 in order to illuminate the trough-like depression of the desk surface 2 and thus print copies 6 recorded in the trough-like depression of the desk surface 2 in accordance with the standards. A standard light source 4 has a color temperature of approximately 5000 K and an intensity of approximately 2000 Ix. Standard light imitated by the or each standard light source 4 of the standard light system is in Fig. 1 visualized as standard light emission 5.

Neben dem Normlichtsystem mit mindestens einer Normlichtquelle 4 verfügt der erfindungsgemäße Leitstand 1 weiterhin über mindestens einen Monitor, wobei der in Fig. 1 dargestellte Monitor 7 als farbverbindlicher Monitor 7 eines Softproofsystems ausgebildet ist. Erfindungsgemäß ist die oder jede Normlichtquelle 4 des Normlichtsystems zwischen der Pultoberfläche 2 und dem oder jedem farbverbindlichen Monitor 7 des Softproofsystems positioniert. Dabei ist gemäß Fig. 1 die oder jede Normlichtquelle 4 des Normlichtsystems oberhalb der Pultoberfläche 2 und unterhalb des oder jedes farbverbindlichen Monitors 7 angeordnet.In addition to the standard light system with at least one standard light source 4, the control station 1 according to the invention also has at least one monitor, the control unit 1 in Fig. 1 Monitor 7 shown is designed as a color-binding monitor 7 of a soft proofing system. According to the invention, the or each standard light source 4 of the standard light system is positioned between the desk surface 2 and the or each color-binding monitor 7 of the softproof system. It is according to Fig. 1 the or each standard light source 4 of the standard light system is arranged above the desk surface 2 and below the or each color-binding monitor 7.

Vorzugsweise ist zwischen der oder jeder Normlichtquelle 4 des Normlichtsystems und dem oder jedem farbverbindlichen Monitor 7 eine Blende 3 positioniert. Die Blende 3 wirkt einer Normlichtemission 5 in Richtung auf den oder jeden farbverbindlichen Monitor 7 sowie einer Normlichtemission 5 in Richtung auf einen am Leitstand 1 arbeitenden Betrachter 8 entgegen. Hierdurch kann einerseits eine Blendung des Betrachters 8 durch Normlicht und andererseits der Einfall von Normlicht auf den oder jeden farbverbindlichen Monitor 7 verhindert werden.A diaphragm 3 is preferably positioned between the or each standard light source 4 of the standard light system and the or each color-binding monitor 7. The diaphragm 3 counteracts a standard light emission 5 in the direction of the or each color-binding monitor 7 and a standard light emission 5 in the direction of an observer 8 working at the control center 1. This can on the one hand prevent the viewer 8 from being dazzled by standard light and, on the other hand, prevent normal light from entering the or each color-binding monitor 7.

Die oder jede Normlichtquelle 4 des Normlichtsystems, die zwischen der Pultoberfläche 2 und dem oder jedem farbverbindlichen Monitor 7 positioniert ist, ist vorzugsweise hinsichtlich ihrer Leuchtstärke bzw. Leuchtintensität regelbar. Vorzugsweise ist die oder jede Normlichtquelle 4 des Normlichtsystems als LED-Lichtquelle ausgebildet, wobei das Normlichtsystem eine asymmetrische Geometrie aufweisen kann.The or each standard light source 4 of the standard light system, which is positioned between the desk surface 2 and the or each color-binding monitor 7, is preferred adjustable in terms of their luminosity or intensity. The or each standard light source 4 of the standard light system is preferably designed as an LED light source, it being possible for the standard light system to have an asymmetrical geometry.

Vorzugsweise ist oberhalb des in Fig. 1 dargestellten farbverbindlichen Monitors 7 ein weiteres Normlichtsystem mit mindestens einer Normlichtquelle 4 angeordnet. In diesem Fall ist dann zwischen dem oberhalb des farbverbindlichen Monitors 7 angeordneten Normlichtsystem und dem unterhalb des farbverbindlichen Monitors 7 angeordneten Normlichtsystem derart hin- und her schaltbar, dass entweder das oberhalb des farbverbindlichen Monitors 7 angeordnete Normlichtsystem oder das unterhalb desselben angeordnete Normlichtsystem aktiv ist.Preferably above the in Fig. 1 shown color-binding monitor 7 arranged a further standard light system with at least one standard light source 4. In this case, it is then possible to switch back and forth between the standard light system arranged above the color-binding monitor 7 and the standard light system arranged below the color-binding monitor 7 such that either the standard light system arranged above the color-binding monitor 7 or the standard light system arranged below it is active.

Die Fig. 2 zeigt eine weitere beispielhafte Ausführung eines erfindungsgemäßen Leitstandes 1. Der Softproofmonitor 15 ist an einem Schwenkarm 12, der vorzugsweise aus zwei mit Kugelgelenken verbundenen Gelenken besteht angeordnet. Der Schwenkarm 12 ist vorzugsweise über ein weiteres Kugelgelenk am Leitstand 1 befestigt. Damit lässt sich der Monitor 15 frei über der Pultfläche 13 und einem dort aufliegenden Druckexemplar 14 positionieren. Durch ein weiteres Gelenk - vorzugsweise ein Kugelgelenk - ist es möglich, den Monitor 15 mit einem gewünschten Abstand zum Druckexemplar 14 parallel zur Pultoberfläche 13 auszurichten. Zum Bewegen des Monitors 15 ist vorzugsweise ein Haltegriff 19 vorgesehen. Die Anzeige/das Display 16 des Monitors 15 ist dabei im Wesentlichen nach oben in Richtung zum Betrachter/Bediener 11 ausgerichtet. Da die Darstellung des Softproofs am Monitor 15 und das von der Druckmaschine gedruckte Exemplar 14 dabei in gleicher Ausrichtung sehr nah beieinander liegen, kann der Betrachter 11 beide unter sehr ähnlichem Betrachtungswinkel und Betrachtungsabstand begutachten und vergleichen.The Fig. 2 shows a further exemplary embodiment of a control station 1 according to the invention. The softproof monitor 15 is arranged on a swivel arm 12, which preferably consists of two joints connected with ball joints. The swivel arm 12 is preferably attached to the control station 1 via a further ball joint. The monitor 15 can thus be positioned freely above the desk surface 13 and a print copy 14 lying there. A further joint - preferably a ball joint - makes it possible to align the monitor 15 parallel to the desk surface 13 at a desired distance from the printed copy 14. A handle 19 is preferably provided for moving the monitor 15. The display / display 16 of the monitor 15 is oriented essentially upwards in the direction of the viewer / operator 11. Since the display of the softproof on the monitor 15 and the copy 14 printed by the printing press are very close to one another in the same orientation, the viewer 11 can examine and compare both from a very similar viewing angle and viewing distance.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, dass bei dieser Ausführung, wenn die Normlichtquelle 17 direkt an der Rückseite des Displays bzw. der Anzeige des Monitors 15 angeordnet ist und die Beleuchtungsrichtung 18 zur Pultoberfläche 13 bzw. zum Druckexemplar 14 gerichtet ist. Dann kann der Betrachter 11 den Monitor 15 und damit die Beleuchtungs-/Normlichtquelle 17 synchron in einen beliebigen Bereich des Druckexemplares 14 verschieben, den er gerade begutachten/auswerten möchte. Da die Normlichtquelle 17 bei dieser Anordnung nicht das gesamte Druckexemplar 14 ausleuchten muss, kann sie sehr klein und damit leicht dimensioniert werden, wodurch die Kosten verringert und die Beweglichkeit erhöht werden. Weiterhin wird durch diese vorteilhafte Anordnung der Normlichtquelle 17 verhindert, dass Normlicht auf das Display des Monitors 15 fällt, sondern lediglich das Druckexemplar 14 beleuchtet wird.It is particularly advantageous in this embodiment if the standard light source 17 is arranged directly on the back of the display or the display of the monitor 15 and the direction of illumination 18 is directed toward the desk surface 13 or the printed copy 14. The viewer 11 can then move the monitor 15 and thus the illuminating / standard light source 17 synchronously into any area of the printed copy 14 which he is about to examine / evaluate. Since the standard light source 17 does not have to illuminate the entire printed copy 14 in this arrangement, it can be made very small and therefore light, which reduces the costs and increases the mobility. Furthermore, this advantageous arrangement of the standard light source 17 prevents standard light from falling onto the display of the monitor 15, rather only illuminating the printed copy 14.

Je nach Standpunkt des Betrachters 11 und der Position des Monitors 15 - beispielsweise bezüglich Druckexemplare 14 mit größerem Format - kann es vorteilhaft sein, die Ausrichtung des Monitors 15 etwas zu verändern, um den Betrachtungswinkel für den Betrachter 11 zu verbessern. Der Monitor 15 ist in diesem Fall unter Umständen nicht mehr genau parallel zur Pultoberfläche 13 zum Druckexemplar 14, sondern nur noch annähernd parallel. In diesem Fall kann es vorteilhaft sein, die Normlichtquelle 17 beweglich/drehbar am Monitor 15 zu befestigen, um sie unabhängig von der Ausrichtung des Monitors 15 auf das Druckexemplar 14 ausrichten zu können.Depending on the viewpoint of the viewer 11 and the position of the monitor 15 - for example with regard to printed copies 14 with a larger format - it can be advantageous to change the orientation of the monitor 15 somewhat in order to improve the viewing angle for the viewer 11. In this case, the monitor 15 may no longer be exactly parallel to the desk surface 13 to the printed copy 14, but only approximately parallel. In this case, it can be advantageous to attach the standard light source 17 to the monitor 15 in a movable / rotatable manner in order to be able to align it with the printed copy 14 regardless of the orientation of the monitor 15.

Neben der Befestigung an einem Schwenkarm sind selbstverständlich auch andere Einrichtungen denkbar, die den Monitor 15 beweglich machen. Es sind beispielsweise Linearführungen möglich, an welchen der Monitor 15 z.B. stets parallel zur Pultoberfläche 13 ausgerichtet seitlich verschoben werden kann.
Weiterhin ist es gemäß der Erfindung nicht zwingend erforderlich, die Normlichtquelle 17 direkt am Monitor 15 anzuordnen, sondern es ist auch möglich sie an der Bewegungseinrichtung zu befestigen.In addition to the attachment to a swivel arm, other devices that make the monitor 15 movable are of course also conceivable. For example, linear guides are possible, on which the monitor 15 can always be laterally displaced, for example, always aligned parallel to the desk surface 13.
Furthermore, according to the invention, it is not absolutely necessary to arrange the standard light source 17 directly on the monitor 15, but it is also possible to attach it to the movement device.

Darüber hinaus ist es auch möglich den Monitor 15 mit Abstand zur Pultoberfläche 13 in paralleler Ausrichtung feststehend anzuordnen, wobei die Normlichtquelle 17 vorzugsweise an der Rückseite des Displays mit Ausrichtung auf die Pultfläche 13 angeordnet ist. Das Druckexemplar 14 müsste dann entsprechend dem zu begutachtenden Bereich unterhalb des Monitors 15 positioniert werden.In addition, it is also possible to arrange the monitor 15 fixedly at a distance from the desk surface 13 in a parallel orientation, the standard light source 17 preferably being arranged on the rear of the display with an orientation towards the desk surface 13. The printed copy 14 would then have to be positioned below the monitor 15 in accordance with the area to be examined.
