Auslaufseltig schließt sich an die Auflageelemente 6 als Abförderer ein Querförderer 7 an, von dem die fertigen Blattstapel 4 quer zur Produktlaufrichtung zu einer nicht dargesteilten Packstation abtransportiert werden.The collecting station 3 consists of a series of support elements 6 extending in the direction of product travel, which are arranged at a somewhat distance from each other and whose surfaces carrying the stacks 4 run in a horizontal plane. Elapsed at the end of the support elements 6 as a discharge conveyor connects to a cross conveyor 7, from which the finished sheet stack 4 are transported transversely to the product running direction to a not dargesteilten packing station.

Im Bereich der Sammelstation 3 sind weitere Stapelbildungs- und Übergabeelemente angeordnet, die eine kantengenaue Ablage der Blattlagen zu einem Stapel 4 und dessen Übergabe an den Querförderer 7 sicherstellen: Die einlaufseitige Begrenzung des Stapelbereichs wird von einer Reihe von Begrenzungs-Schüttelelementen 8 gebildet, von denen eines In Figur 4 detaillierter dargestellt ist. Es besteht aus zwei mit Abstand voneinander angeordneten waagerechten Tragteilen 8.1 und zwei sich fluchtend anschließenden senkrecht nach unten abgewinkelten Begrenzungsteilen 8.2 an deren senkrechten hinteren Begrenzungskanten die Blattlagen beim Stapeln ausgerichtet werden. Für eine kantengenaue Ablage werden die obersten Blattlagen beim Ablegen auf einen Stapel 4 geschüttelt. Dies erfolgt mittels einer Schütteiplatte 8.3, die senkrecht verlaufend zwischen den Begrenzungskanten angeordnet ist und von einem Schüttelantrieb 8.4 geschüttelt wird. Oben auf den Tragteilen 8.1 ist eine Halteplatte 8.5 befestigt, in der eine sich quer über die Arbeitsbreite erstreckende Führungsieiste 14 gelagert ist. Die Führungsleiste 14 dient dazu, die Begrenzungs- und Schüttelelemente 8 aufzunehmen.In the area of the collecting station 3 further stacking and transfer elements are arranged, which ensure a precise edge storage of the sheet layers to a stack 4 and its transfer to the cross conveyor 7: The inlet-side boundary of the stacking area is formed by a series of boundary-shaking elements 8, of which an in FIG. 4 is shown in more detail. It consists of two spaced-apart horizontal support members 8.1 and two aligned subsequent perpendicular downwardly angled boundary parts 8.2 at the vertical rear boundary edges of the sheet layers are aligned during stacking. For an edge-exact storage, the uppermost sheet layers are shaken when depositing on a stack 4. This is done by means of a Schütteiplatte 8.3, running vertically between the boundary edges is arranged and shaken by a shaker 8.4. On top of the supporting parts 8.1, a holding plate 8.5 is fixed, in which a transverse to the working width extending guide rail 14 is mounted. The guide rail 14 serves to receive the limiting and shaking elements 8.

Zwischen den Auflageelementen 6 sind senkrecht sich in Produktlaufrichtung erstreckende Seltenschüttelbleche 9 angeordnet, von denen die Seitenkanten der Stapel 4 bei der Stapelbildung geschütteit werden. Die Vorderkanten der Blattlagen werden von sich quer über die Arbeitsbreite angeordneten Stopperelementen abgestoppt, die in den Figuren nicht dargestellt sind. Die Auflageelemente 6, die Begrenzungs- und Schütteielemente 8, zwei Schüttelbleche 9 und die Stopperelemente bilden so beim Ablegen der Blattlagen eine oben offene Sammelbox, In der die Stapel 4 gebildet werden.Between the support elements 6 are arranged vertically extending in the product direction Seltenschüttelbleche 9, of which the side edges of the stack 4 are geschütteit in stacking. The leading edges of the sheet layers are stopped by arranged across the working width stopper elements, which are not shown in the figures. The support elements 6, the boundary and Schütteielemente 8, two Schüttelbleche 9 and the stopper elements form when depositing the sheet layers an open-top collection box, in which the stack 4 are formed.

Zum Herausschieben der fertigen Stapel 4 aus der Stapelbox in Richtung zum Querförderer 7 dienen Schiebeelemente 10, die in Figur 2 detaillierter dargestellt sind. Jedes Schiebeelement 10 besteht aus zwei senkrechten Schlebelelsten 10.1, die quer zur Produktlaufrichtung jeweils außen neben den Begrenzungsteilen 8.2 und parallel zu diesen angeordnet sind. An jede Schiebeleiste 10.1 schließt sich eine waagerechten Tragleiste 10.2 an, die sich jeweils neben einem Tragteil 8.1 des Begrenzungselements 8 erstreckt. Die Schlebeleisten 10.1 schieben einen fertigen Stapel 4 in Produktlaufrichtung aus der Sammelbox, so dass in dieser ein neuer Stapel gebildet werden kann. Vorteilhaft werden die Blattlagen auf den Tragleisten 10.2 zwischengelagert, während die fertigen Stapel 4 abtransportiert werden. Beim Zurückfahren der Schiebeelemente gegen Produktlaufrichtung werden die zwischengelagerten Blattlagen an die Auflageelemente 6 übergeben.To push out the finished stack 4 from the stacking box in the direction of the transverse conveyor 7 serve sliding elements 10, the in FIG. 2 are shown in more detail. Each sliding element 10 consists of two vertical Schlebelelsten 10.1, which are arranged transversely to the product running direction in each case outside the boundary parts 8.2 and parallel to these. To each slide bar 10.1 is followed by a horizontal support bar 10.2, which extends in each case adjacent to a support member 8.1 of the limiting element 8. The Schlebeleisten 10.1 push a finished stack 4 in the product direction of the collection box, so that in this a new stack can be formed. Advantageously, the sheet layers are stored on the support strips 10.2, while the finished stack 4 are transported away. When moving back the sliding elements against product running direction, the intermediate sheet layers are transferred to the support elements 6.

Zur anschließenden Übergabe der Stapel 4 an den Querförderer 7 dienen Elemente, von denen die Stapel 4 beim Transport festgeklemmt gehalten werden, um ein Verrutschen der gestapelten Blattiagen zu verhindern. Geeignete Elemente sind Wagen mit Klemmfingern, von denen die Stapel 4 so gehalten werden, dass ihre Form erhalten bleibt. Damit die anderen Teile sichtbar sind, sind diese Elemente in den Figuren nicht dargestellt.For the subsequent transfer of the stack 4 to the cross conveyor 7 serve elements of which the stack 4 are kept clamped during transport to prevent slippage of the stacked Blattiagen. Suitable elements are carriages with clamping fingers, of which the stacks 4 are held so that their shape is maintained. So that the other parts are visible, these elements are not shown in the figures.

The feed conveyor 5, the limiting and shaking elements 8, the Seltenschüttelbleche 9 and the trailing elements 10 are mounted on vertically movable rare cheeks 11, so that their position in the vertical direction can be adapted to the growing stack heights. The sliding elements 10 are additionally vertically and horizontally movable in and against the product running direction relative to the other elements mounted on the Seltenwangen 11 elements by means of a drive, so that they can start up and perform the sliding movement. In order to adjust the einlaufseltige boundary of the collection box in dependence on the format length of the sheet layers, the side cheeks 11 are mounted with the attached elements additionally limited horizontally adjustable in and against the product direction.

Damit unterschiedliche Formatbreiten der Blattlagen und eine unterschiedliche Nutzenanzahl verarbeitet werden können, sind nach der Erfindung die von der Formatbreite und/oder Nutzenanzahl abhängig quer zu positionierenden Elemente besonders vorteilhaft gestaltet und gelagert:In order to be able to process different format widths of the sheet layers and a different number of uses, according to the invention the elements which are to be positioned transversely to be positioned depending on the format width and / or number of use are designed and stored in a particularly advantageous manner:

Die auf die Stapelseiten einwirkenden Seitenschüttelbleche 9 sind gemeinsam mit den Oberbändern 5, von denen die Blattlagen in den Stapelbereich geführt werden, quer verstellbar. Die Seitenschüttelflächen 9 werden zwischen zwei parallel gebildete Blattstapel 4 positioniert, Falls weniger Nutzen als möglich gestapelt werden, werden die überflüssigen Elemente in seitliche Parkpositionen verfahren.The Seitenschüttelbleche 9 acting on the stack sides are transversely adjustable together with the upper belts 5, of which the sheet layers are guided in the stacking area. The side shaking surfaces 9 are positioned between two parallel formed stacks of sheets 4. If less use is stacked as possible, the redundant elements are moved to lateral parking positions.

Um die Anzahl der Querverstellungen bei einem Formatwechsel erheblich zu verringern, werden jewells ein Auflageelement 6, ein Begrenzungs- und Schüttelelement 8 und ein Schiebeelement 10 gemeinsam als Einhelt quer verschoben. Dazu sind die beiden Schiebeleisten 10.1 eines Schiebeelements 10 jeweils außen neben den beiden Begrenzungsteilen 8.2 eines Begrenzungs-und Schüttelelements 8 angeordnet. Die Schüttelplatte 8.3 ist zwischen den beiden Begranzungsteilen 8.2 befestigt. Ein Auflageelement 8, das den Boden der Sammelbox bildet, ist unterhalb der Schüttelplatte 8.3 ebenfalls zwischen den Begrenzungsteilen 8.2 angeordnet. Diese Gestaltung ermöglicht es, mittels eines einzigen seitlich an einem Begrenzungsteil 8.2 angreifenden Verstellelements, beispielsweise einer Verstellstange 13, die aus einem Auflageelement 6, einem Schiebeelement 10 und einem Begrenzungs- und Schüttelelement 8 bestehende Einheit gemeinsam quer zur Produktlaufrichtung zu verstellen und auf die neue Formatbreite zu positionieren. Dies vereinfacht die Querpositionierung der Elemente erheblich.To significantly reduce the number of transverse adjustments in a format change, jewells a support element 6, a limiting and shaking element 8 and a sliding element 10 are moved together as Einhelt transverse. For this purpose, the two sliding strips 10.1 of a sliding element 10 are each arranged outside next to the two boundary parts 8.2 of a limiting and shaking element 8. The shaker plate 8.3 is attached between the two Begranzungsteilen 8.2. A support element 8, which covers the floor the collecting box forms, is also arranged below the shaking plate 8.3 between the boundary parts 8.2. This design makes it possible, by means of a single side engaging on a boundary part 8.2 adjusting element, for example, an adjusting rod 13, the unit consisting of a support element 6, a sliding element 10 and a limiting and shaking element 8 to adjust together across the product direction and the new format width to position. This considerably simplifies the transverse positioning of the elements.

Die beiden Schiebeleisten 10.1 eines Schiebeelements 10 sind bevorzugt unterhalb des zugehörigen Auflageelements 6 mit einer Quertelste verbunden, damit sie ohne Kollision mit dem Begrenzungs- und Schüttelement 8 nach oben und ohne Kollision mit einem Seitenschütteiblech 9 in und gegen Produktlaufrichtung bewegt werden können.The two sliding strips 10.1 of a sliding element 10 are preferably connected below the associated support element 6 with a cross-belt so that they can be moved without collision with the limiting and pouring element 8 upwards and without collision with a Seitenschütteiblech 9 in and against the product direction.

Zum Transport der geschuppten Blattlagen und/oder der Stapel 4 sind ein oder mehrere Förderstrecken auf besonders vorteilhafte Welse gestaltet. Die Förderstrecken werden oder teilweise von ebenen Oberflächen von Tragelementen gebildet, die aus einem porösen Keramlkwerkstoff mit offenen Poren gefertigt sind. Die Poren weisen einen mittleren Durchmesser von weniger als 100 µm, bevorzugt weniger als 20 µm, auf. Die Tragelemente sind an Ihrer Unterseite an eine Druckluftzufuhr angeschlossen, so dass Druckluft zur Bildung eines Luftpolsters aus der fördernden Oberfläche austritt und so die Reibung mit den Blattlagen und/oder Stapeln 4 auf minimale Werte verringert. Diese Bauweise ermöglicht Förderstrecken mit sehr geringer Bauhöhe im Vergleich zu Förderbändern. So lassen sich quer verstellbare Förderelemente Innerhalb des Bereichs der maximalen Fallhöhe der Blattlagen beim Stapeln anordnen. Bevorzugt sind bei der Sammel- und Transportvorrichtung die Auflageelemente 6, der Querförderer 7 und der Einlauf in die Sammelstation 3, insbesondere der Führungstisch 2, aus dem plattenförmigen porösen Keramikwerkstoff mit offenen Poren gefertigt,To transport the scaly sheet layers and / or the stack 4 one or more conveyor lines are designed for particularly advantageous catfish. The conveying paths are formed in part or by planar surfaces of supporting elements, which are made of a porous ceramic material with open pores. The pores have an average diameter of less than 100 .mu.m, preferably less than 20 .mu.m. The support elements are connected to a compressed air supply at the bottom so that compressed air escapes from the conveying surface to form an air cushion, thus minimizing friction with the sheet layers and / or stacks 4. This design allows conveyor lines with very low height compared to conveyor belts. Thus, transversely adjustable conveying elements can be arranged within the range of the maximum drop height of the sheet layers during stacking. Preferably, in the collecting and transporting device, the support elements 6, the cross conveyor 7 and the inlet to the collecting station 3, in particular the guide table 2, made of the plate-shaped porous ceramic material with open pores,
