Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Falztaschenvorrichtung für eine Taschenfalzmaschine nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a folding pocket device for a pocket folding machine according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Aus der DE 38 40 856 A1 ist eine Falztaschenvorrichtung für eine Taschenfalzmaschine bekannt, die einen in einem Taschenraum einer Falztasche angeordneten Bogenanschlag aufweist, der zur Anpassung an die Bogenlänge in Einlaufrichtung des Bogens verstellbar ist. Außerdem ist eine Bogenweicheneinrichtung vorgesehen, mittels derer die Einlaufmündung in die Falztasche verschlossen werden kann, so dass der Bogen ohne Falzung in der Falztasche umgelenkt wird. Zur Bewegung der Bogenweicheneinrichtung aus einer Freigabestellung, in der sie die Einlaufmündung in die Falztasche freigibt, in eine Umlenkstellung, in der sie zur Umlenkung des Bogens die Einlaufmündung verschließt, ist ein Linearmotor vorgesehen.From the DE 38 40 856 A1 a Falztaschenvorrichtung is known for a Taschenfalzmaschine having a arranged in a pocket space of a folding pocket sheet stop, which is adjustable to adapt to the arc length in the direction of entry of the sheet. In addition, a sheet diverter device is provided, by means of which the inlet mouth can be closed in the folding pocket, so that the sheet is deflected without folding in the folding pocket. To move the sheet diverter device from a release position in which it releases the inlet opening in the folding pocket, in a deflection position in which it closes the inlet opening for deflecting the sheet, a linear motor is provided.

Aus der DE 92 11 016 U1 ist eine gattungsgemäße Falztaschenvorrichtung für eine Taschenfalzmaschine bekannt, bei der der Bogenanschlag so ausgebildet ist, dass er gleichzeitig als Bogenweiche dient. Um die Einlaufmündung in die Falztasche zu verschließen, wird der Bogenanschlag aus einer vorherigen Anschlagstellung mittels eines Antriebs in eine vordere Umlenkstellung bewegt, in der er als Bogenweiche dient. Damit der Bogen sicher umgelenkt werden kann, weist der Bogenanschlag einzelne Anschlagelemente auf, die konkav ausgebildet sind. Die einzelnen Anschlagelemente sind zwischen den Taschenstäben der Falztasche angeordnet, weshalb es nicht möglich ist, eine durchgehende Anschlagfläche zu bilden. An der auftreffenden Kante von Bogen kann es hierdurch zu einer Bildung von Anschlagmarken kommen. Darüber hinaus ist der Weg, den der Anschlag aus der Anschlagstellung in die Umlenkstellung fahren muss, relativ lang, wodurch die Taktzeit der Falzmaschine begrenzt wird.From the DE 92 11 016 U1 is a generic Falztaschenvorrichtung for a Taschenfalzmaschine known in which the sheet stop is designed so that it also serves as a curved diverter. In order to close the inlet mouth in the folding pocket, the sheet stop is moved from a previous stop position by means of a drive in a front deflection position in which it serves as a curved switch. So that the sheet can be deflected safely, the sheet stop on individual stop elements, which are concave. The individual stop elements are arranged between the pocket bars of the folding pocket, which is why it is not possible to form a continuous stop surface. This can lead to the formation of stop marks on the impinging edge of the sheet. In addition, the way the stop must travel from the stop position to the deflection position is relatively long, which limits the cycle time of the folding machine.

Die JP 2007 308209 A offenbart eine Falztaschenvorrichtung für eine Taschenfalzmaschine mit einer Falztasche mit einer Einlaufmündung, durch die ein Bogen in einer Einlaufrichtung in einen Taschenraum der Falztasche einlaufen kann. Eine Bogenanschlageinrichtung weist einen sich im Wesentlichen quer zur Einlaufrichtung im Taschenraum erstreckenden Bogenanschlag auf, der in der und gegen die Einlaufrichtung verschiebbar ist. Außerdem ist eine Bogenweicheneinrichtung vorgesehen, die eine Umlenkeinrichtung umfasst, die aus einer Freigabestellung, in der sie die Einlaufmündung in die Falztasche freigibt, in eine Umlenkstellung verschiebbar ist, in der sie zur Umlenkung eines Bogens die Einlaufmündung verschließt. Die Umlenkeinrichtung ist mittels des Bogenanschlags aus der Freigabestellung in die Umlenkstellung verschwenkbar, wenn der Bogenanschlag gegen die Einlaufrichtung verschoben wird.The JP 2007 308209 A discloses a Falztaschenvorrichtung for a pocket folding machine with a folding pocket with an inlet mouth through which a sheet can enter in a direction of entry into a pocket space of the folding pocket. A sheet stop device has a substantially transversely to the direction of entry in the pocket space extending sheet stop, which is displaceable in and against the inlet direction. In addition, a sheet diverter device is provided which comprises a deflection device which is displaceable from a release position in which it releases the inlet opening in the folding pocket in a deflection position in which it closes the inlet mouth for deflecting a sheet. The deflection is pivotable by means of the sheet stop from the release position in the deflection position when the sheet stop is moved against the inlet direction.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, mit konstruktiv einfachen Mitteln eine Falztaschenvorrichtung für eine Taschenfalzmaschine zu schaffen, die zur Erzielung einer hohen Taktzeit schnell von Anschlagstellung in Umlenkstellung umgeschaltet werden kann.The invention has for its object to provide a folding pocket device for a Taschenfalzmaschine with simple design means that can be quickly switched to achieve a high cycle time of stop position in the reversing position.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch eine Falztaschenvorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der erfindungsgemäßen Falztaschenvorrichtung sind Gegenstand der Patentansprüche 2 bis 6.This object is achieved by a Falztaschenvorrichtung with the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the Falztaschenvorrichtung invention are the subject of claims 2 to 6.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Falztaschenvorrichtung wird die Umlenkeinrichtung der Bogenweicheneinrichtung mittels des Bogenanschlags aus der Freigabestellung in die Umlenkstellung verschoben, wenn der Bogenanschlag gegen die Einlaufrichtung verschoben wird. Der Weg, den der Bogenanschlag für diese Verschiebung bewegt werden muss, ist im Vergleich zu dem Weg des Bogenanschlags, der aus der DE 92 11 016 U1 bekannt ist, relativ gering, da der Anschlag selbst nicht bis in die Umlenkstellung verschoben werden muss. Dies erlaubt eine geringe Taktzeit und eine Umschaltung zur Anpassung an einen neuen Auftrag während des laufenden Betriebs. Trotzdem ist nur ein einziger Antrieb zur Verschiebung des Bogenanschlags und der Umlenkeinrichtung erforderlich, so dass der konstruktive Aufwand gering ist. Schließlich ist es nicht, wie zum Beispiel bei dem aus der DE 92 11 016 U1 bekannten Bogenanschlag erforderlich, die Anschlagfläche so auszubilden, dass sie sowohl für einen Bogenanschlag als auch für die Umlenkung eines Bogens geeignet ist. Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Falztaschenvorrichtung kann die Umlenkeinrichtung optimal für eine Umlenkung ausgebildet werden, während die Anschlagfläche des Bogenanschlags der Anschlagfunktion entsprechend konstruiert werden kann. Darüber hinaus ist es auch möglich, bei Verwendung von Taschenstäben für die Falztasche den Bogenanschlag durchgehend auszubilden, wie es beispielsweise aus der EP 1 422 178 A1 bekannt ist.In the folder pocket device according to the invention, the deflection of the sheet diverter device is moved by means of the sheet stop from the release position in the deflection position when the sheet stop is moved against the inlet direction. The way the sheet stop has to be moved for this displacement is compared to the path of the sheet stop coming out of the DE 92 11 016 U1 is known, relatively low, since the stop itself does not have to be moved to the deflection position. This allows a low cycle time and switching to adapt to a new job during operation. Nevertheless, only a single drive for moving the sheet stop and the deflection is required, so that the design effort is low. After all, it's not like that, for example DE 92 11 016 U1 known sheet stop required to form the stop surface so that it is suitable for both a bow stop and for the deflection of a bow. In the folder pocket device according to the invention, the deflection can be optimally designed for a deflection, while the stop surface of the sheet stop the stop function can be designed accordingly. In addition, it is also possible when using Pocket bars for the folding pocket to form the sheet stop continuously, as for example from the EP 1 422 178 A1 is known.

Für eine sichere Funktion weist die Bogenweicheneinrichtung eine sich quer zur Einlaufrichtung im Taschenraum erstreckende, mit der Umlenkeinrichtung verbundene Querschiene auf, die so angeordnet ist, dass der Bogenanschlag nach einer vorherbestimmten Bewegung gegen die Einlaufrichtung auf sie auftrifft und sie bei einer fortgesetzten Bewegung gegen die Einlaufrichtung verschiebt, bis die Umlenkeinrichtung die Einlaufmündung verschließt. Die Querschiene ist über wenigstens eine in einer rahmenfesten Führung geführte Verbindungsstange mit einer Querleiste verbunden. Die Umlenkeinrichtung umfasst eine Vielzahl von quer zur Einlaufrichtung im Abstand angeordneten Umlenkelementen, die an der Querleiste angebracht sind.For safe operation, the sheet diverter has a transversely to the inlet direction in the pocket space extending, connected to the deflection cross rail, which is arranged so that the sheet stop after a predetermined movement against the inlet direction impinges on them and they in a continued movement against the inlet direction moves until the deflection closes the inlet opening. The cross rail is connected via at least one guided in a frame-fixed guide connecting rod with a cross bar. The deflection device comprises a plurality of transversely arranged to the inlet direction deflecting elements which are attached to the cross bar.

Vorzugsweise umfasst die Bogenweicheneinrichtung eine elastische Einrichtung, vorzugsweise eine Schraubenrückholfeder, die so ausgebildet und angeordnet ist, dass sie komprimiert wird, wenn der Bogenanschlag die Umlenkeinrichtung gegen die Einlaufrichtung in die Umlenkstellung verschiebt, und die Umlenkeinrichtung durch ihre Federkraft wieder in die Freigabestellung verschiebt, wenn der Bogenanschlag wieder in Einlaufrichtung verschoben wird. Mit anderen Worten wird die Umlenkeinrichtung automatisch wieder in die Freigabestellung verschoben, wenn der Bogenanschlag wieder eine Anschlagfunktion erfüllen soll.Preferably, the sheet diverter device comprises an elastic means, preferably a screw return spring, which is designed and compressed so that it is compressed when the sheet stop moves the deflecting against the inlet direction in the deflection position, and the deflecting device by its spring force moves back to the release position, if the sheet stop is moved back in the inlet direction. In other words, the deflection is automatically moved back to the release position when the sheet stop should again fulfill a stop function.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform umfasst der Bogenanschlag eine sich quer zur Einlaufrichtung in dem Taschenraum erstreckende Anschlagschiene, die vorzugsweise mittels zweier Stellantriebe verschiebbar ist, die an zwei quer zur Einlaufrichtung im Abstand angeordneten Positionen mit der Anschlagschiene verbunden sind. Mittels der beiden Stellantriebe ist es möglich, eine Schrägstellung des Bogenanschlags einzustellen.In a preferred embodiment, the sheet stop comprises a transverse to the inlet direction in the pocket space extending stop rail, which is preferably displaceable by means of two actuators, which are connected at two transversely to the inlet direction spaced positions with the stop rail. By means of the two actuators, it is possible to adjust an inclination of the sheet stop.

Bei einer solchen Ausführungsform wird die elastische Einrichtung zweckmäßigerweise von einer Schraubenrückholfeder gebildet, die sich einerseits an der Führung und andererseits an der Verbindungsstange abstützt.In such an embodiment, the elastic device is expediently formed by a screw return spring, which is supported on the one hand on the guide and on the other hand on the connecting rod.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nachstehend anhand von Zeichnungen näher erläutert. Es zeigen

  • Figur 1 einen Querschnitt einer Falztaschenvorrichtung, wobei sich eine Umlenkeinrichtung in einer Freigabestellung befindet,
  • Figur 2 die Falztaschenvorrichtung von Figur 1, wobei sich die Umlenkeinrichtung in einer Umlenkstellung befindet,
  • Figur 3 eine Draufsicht auf die Falztaschenvorrichtung von Figur 1.
An embodiment of the invention will be explained below with reference to drawings. Show it
  • FIG. 1 a cross section of a Falztaschenvorrichtung, wherein a deflection device is in a release position,
  • FIG. 2 the folding pocket device of FIG. 1 , wherein the deflection device is in a deflection position,
  • FIG. 3 a plan view of the Falztaschenvorrichtung of FIG. 1 ,

Wie es in Figur 3 zu erkennen ist, umfasst die Falztaschenvorrichtung 10 eine Falztasche 11 mit zwei im Abstand angeordneten Querträgern 70, 76 und zwei Längsträgern 72, 74, die die äußeren Enden der Querträger 70, 76 miteinander verbinden.As it is in FIG. 3 it can be seen, the Falztaschenvorrichtung 10 comprises a folding pocket 11 with two spaced transverse beams 70, 76 and two longitudinal members 72, 74 which connect the outer ends of the cross member 70, 76 together.

Die Falztasche 11 weist auf bekannte Weise mehrere im Abstand zueinander angeordnete obere Taschenstäbe 20 auf, unterhalb derer jeweils ein unterer Taschenstab 22 im Abstand angeordnet ist, so dass ein Taschenraum 24 zwischen den Taschenstäben 20, 22 gebildet wird.The folding pocket 11 has in known manner a plurality of spaced apart upper pocket bars 20, below each of which a lower pocket bar 22 is arranged at a distance, so that a pocket space 24 between the pocket bars 20, 22 is formed.

Eine Einlaufmündung 25 für einen Bogen in den Taschenraum 24 wird von einem oberen Einlaufblech 28 und von einem unteren Einlaufblech 26 gebildet. Die Einlaufbleche 26, 28 erstrecken sich in einen Walzenraum 18, der von drei Falzwalzen 12, 14 und 16 umgeben wird. Die Falzwalzen 14, 16 bilden ein erstes Falzwalzenpaar, durch das ein Bogen durch die Einlaufmündung 25 in einer Einlaufrichtung ER in den Taschenraum 24 befördert wird, wenn die Einlaufmündung 25 offen ist. Der Bogen trifft anschließend auf einem Bogenanschlag 40 auf, wonach sich in dem Walzenraum 18 eine Bogenschlaufe bildet, die zur Bildung einer Falzung von den Falzwalzen 12, 14 erfasst wird, die ein zweites Falzwalzenpaar bilden. Der Bogen läuft dann in einer Auslaufrichtung AR aus der Falztasche 11, die der Einlaufrichtung ER entgegengesetzt ist.An inlet mouth 25 for an arc in the pocket space 24 is formed by an upper inlet plate 28 and by a lower inlet plate 26. The inlet plates 26, 28 extend into a roller chamber 18, which is surrounded by three folding rollers 12, 14 and 16. The folding rollers 14, 16 form a first folding roller pair, through which a sheet is conveyed through the inlet opening 25 in an inlet direction ER into the pocket space 24 when the inlet opening 25 is open. The sheet then strikes a sheet stop 40, whereafter a sheet loop forms in the roll chamber 18 which is gripped by the folding rollers 12, 14 to form a fold forming a second pair of folding rollers. The sheet then runs in a direction of departure AR from the folding pocket 11, which is opposite to the direction of entry ER.

In Figur 1 befindet sich der Bogenanschlag 40 in einer hinteren Anschlagstellung. Der Bogenanschlag 40 umfasst eine Anschlagschiene 41 mit einer sich senkrecht erstreckenden vorderen Anschlagfläche 42. Obwohl in den Fig. 1 bis 3 nicht erkennbar, sind die Anschlagfläche 42 und die Taschenstäbe 20, 22 bevorzugt so ausgebildet, wie es aus der EP 1422 178 A1 bekannt ist, d.h. die Taschenstäbe 20, 22 weisen auf ihrer dem Taschenraum 24 zugewandten Seite eine Innenaussparung auf. Die Anschlagfläche 42 geht durch den Taschenraum 24 zwischen den Taschenstäben 20, 22 hindurch. Zwischen benachbarten Taschenstäben 20, 22 sind Außenanschläge angeordnet und innerhalb der Taschenstäbe sind Innenanschläge angeordnet, wobei sich die Innenanschläge jeweils in die Innenaussparungen der Taschenstäbe 20, 22 erstrecken. Die Innenanschläge sind außerdem mit den benachbarten Außenanschlägen über einen Verbindungssteg verbunden, dessen Breite geringer ist als die Höhe des Taschenraums 24 zwischen den Taschenstäben 20, 22.In FIG. 1 the sheet stop 40 is in a rear stop position. The sheet stop 40 comprises a stop rail 41 with a vertically extending front stop surface 42. Although in the Fig. 1 to 3 not visible, the stop surface 42 and the pocket bars 20, 22 are preferably formed as it is known from EP 1422 178 A1 is known, ie, the pocket bars 20, 22 have on their the pocket space 24 side facing an inner recess. The stop surface 42 passes through the pocket space 24 between the pocket bars 20, 22 therethrough. External stops are arranged between adjacent pocket bars 20, 22 and internal stops are arranged within the pocket bars, wherein the inner stops each extend into the inner recesses of the pocket bars 20, 22. The inner stops are also connected to the adjacent outer stops via a connecting web whose width is less than the height of the pocket space 24 between the pocket bars 20, 22nd

Wie es aus Figur 3 erkennbar ist, erstreckt sich die Anschlagschiene 41 seitlich über die Anordnung aus Taschenstäben 20 bzw. 22 hinaus. An dem Längsträger 74 ist unterhalb des Querträgers 76 ein Linearmotor 54 angebracht, der ein Motorgehäuse 56 und eine Schubstange 58 aufweist. Das vordere Ende der Schubstange 58 ist mit der Anschlagschiene 41 verbunden. Auf gleiche Weise ist an dem in Figur 3 linken Längsträger 72 unterhalb des Querträgers 76 ein Linearmotor 44 befestigt, der eine in einem Motorgehäuse 46 geführte Schubstange 48 antreibt, deren vorderes Ende mit der Anschlagschiene 41 verbunden ist. Mittels der Linearmotoren 44, 54 ist somit eine Bewegung der Anschlagschiene 41 in Einlaufrichtung ER und Auslaufrichtung AR eines Bogens in der Falztasche 11 möglich, wobei dadurch, dass die Motoren 44, 54 getrennt angetrieben werden, eine Schrägstellung der Anschlagschiene 41 möglich ist.Like it out FIG. 3 can be seen, the stop rail 41 extends laterally beyond the arrangement of pocket bars 20 and 22 also. On the longitudinal member 74, a linear motor 54 is mounted below the cross member 76, which has a motor housing 56 and a push rod 58. The front end of the push rod 58 is connected to the stop rail 41. In the same way is at the in FIG. 3 left side member 72 below the cross member 76, a linear motor 44 is fixed, which drives a guided in a motor housing 46 push rod 48, the front end of which is connected to the stop rail 41. By means of the linear motors 44, 54, a movement of the stop rail 41 in the inlet direction ER and exit direction AR of a sheet in the folding pocket 11 is thus possible, wherein characterized in that the motors 44, 54 are driven separately, an inclined position of the stop rail 41 is possible.

Die Falztaschenvorrichtung 10 weist zudem eine Bogenweicheneinrichtung 30 auf, die an dem vorderen Querträger 70 angebracht ist. Hierzu sind an dem Querträger 70 zwei Zylinderführungen 38 so angebracht, dass sie sich in der Draufsicht von Fig. 3 in Einlaufrichtung ER erstrecken. In den Zylinderführungen 38 ist jeweils eine Verbindungsstange 32 geführt, die durch die Zylinderführungen 38 hindurchgeht. Die dem Bogenanschlag 40 zugewandten Enden der Verbindungsstangen 32 sind durch eine Querschiene 36 verbunden, während die anderen Enden der Verbindungsstange 32 mit einer Querleiste 62 einer Umlenkeinrichtung 35 verbunden sind. An der Vorderseite der Querleiste 62 sind eine Vielzahl von Umlenkelementen 34 im Abstand zueinander vorgesehen.The folder device 10 also has a sheet diverter 30 which is attached to the front cross member 70. For this purpose, two cylinder guides 38 are mounted on the cross member 70 so that they are in the plan view of Fig. 3 extend in the inlet direction ER. In the cylinder guides 38, a connecting rod 32 is guided in each case, which passes through the cylinder guides 38. The bow stop 40 facing ends of the connecting rods 32 are connected by a cross rail 36, while the other ends of the connecting rod 32 are connected to a transverse bar 62 a deflecting device 35. At the front of the cross bar 62 a plurality of deflecting elements 34 are provided at a distance from each other.

Wie es in den Figuren 1 und 2 zu erkennen ist, sind die Führungen 38 in Richtung der Einlaufmündung 25 leicht nach unten geneigt. Die Verbindungsstange 32 wird mittels einer nicht gezeigten Schraubenrückholfeder in die in Figur 1 gezeigte Freigabestellung vorgespannt, wobei die Rückholfeder die Verbindungsstange 32 umgibt und innerhalb der Führung 38 angeordnet ist. Sie stützt sich einerseits an der Führung 38 und andererseits an der Verbindungsstange 32 ab.As it is in the Figures 1 and 2 can be seen, the guides 38 are inclined slightly towards the inlet mouth 25 down. The connecting rod 32 is by means of a not shown screw return spring in the in FIG. 1 shown biased release position, wherein the return spring surrounds the connecting rod 32 and is disposed within the guide 38. It relies on the one hand on the guide 38 and on the other hand on the connecting rod 32 from.

Die Verbindungsstange 32 ist zwischen der in Figur 1 gezeigten Position, in der sich die Umlenkelemente 34 oberhalb der Einlaufmündung 25 befinden, gegen die Einlaufrichtung ER, d.h. in Auslaufrichtung AR so weit bewegbar, bis die Umlenkelemente 34 die Einlaufmündung 25 verschließen. Wenn in dieser Stellung ein Bogen zwischen die Falzwalzen 14, 16 eingeführt wird, wird er durch die Umlenkelemente 34 so umgelenkt, dass seine vordere Kante von den Falzwalzen 12, 14 ergriffen wird, so dass der Bogen ohne Falzungen der Falztasche 11 weiter befördert wird.The connecting rod 32 is between the in FIG. 1 shown position in which the deflecting elements 34 are located above the inlet opening 25, against the inlet direction ER, ie in the outlet direction AR so far moved until the deflecting elements 34 close the inlet opening 25. When a sheet is inserted between the folding rollers 14, 16 in this position, it is deflected by the deflecting elements 34 so that its front edge is gripped by the folding rollers 12, 14, so that the sheet without folds of the folding pocket 11 is further promoted.

In Figur 1 befinden sich die Umlenkelemente 34 oberhalb der Einlaufmündung 25 und der Bogenanschlag 40 befindet sich in einer mittels der Linearmotoren 44, 54 eingestellten Anschlagstellung. In diesem Fall wird ein Bogen von den Falzwalzen 14, 16 ergriffen, durch die Einlaufmündung 25 eingeführt und trifft dann auf die Anschlagfläche 42 des Bogenanschlags 40.In FIG. 1 are the deflecting elements 34 above the inlet port 25 and the sheet stop 40 is in a set by means of the linear motors 44, 54 stop position. In this case, a sheet of the folding rollers 14, 16 is taken, introduced through the inlet opening 25 and then strikes the stop surface 42 of the sheet stop 40th

Wenn die Umlenkelemente 34 aus der in Figur 1 gezeigten Freigabestellung in die in Figur 2 gezeigte Umlenkstellung bewegt werden sollen, wird die Anschlagschiene 41 des Bogenanschlags 40 mittels der Linearmotoren 44 und 54 in Auslaufrichtung AR bewegt. Bei dieser Bewegung trifft die Anschlagfläche 42 auf die Querschiene 36 auf, wodurch die Verbindungsstange 32 gegen die Kraft der Rückholfeder bewegt wird, weshalb die Umlenkelemente 34 in die Einlaufmündung 25 eintauchen.If the deflecting elements 34 from the in FIG. 1 shown release position in the in FIG. 2 shown deflection position to be moved, the stop rail 41 of the sheet stopper 40 is moved by means of the linear motors 44 and 54 in the outlet direction AR. In this movement, the stop surface 42 strikes the cross rail 36, whereby the connecting rod 32 is moved against the force of the return spring, which is why the deflection elements 34 dive into the inlet port 25.

Wenn die Umlenkelemente 34 wieder in die Freigabestellung bewegt werden sollen, wird die Anschlagschiene 41 des Bogenanschlags 40 durch die Linearmotoren 44, 54 wieder in Einlaufrichtung ER bewegt, bis sich die Anschlagfläche 42 an einer vorherbestimmten Position für einen Anschlag eines Bogens befindet, die für einen bestimmten Auftrag erforderlich ist. Die Querschiene 36 wird durch die auf die Verbindungsstangen 32 wirkende Federkraft der Rückholfeder wieder zurück in die in Figur 1 gezeigte Ausgangsstellung bewegt, so dass sich die Umlenkelemente 34 oberhalb der Einlaufmündung 25 befinden.When the deflectors 34 are to be moved back to the release position, the stop rail 41 of the sheet stopper 40 is moved by the linear motors 44, 54 again in the inlet direction ER until the stop surface 42 is at a predetermined position for a stop of a bow, which is for a specific order is required. The cross rail 36 is again acted upon by the acting on the connecting rods 32 spring force of the return spring in the in FIG. 1 shown starting position moves, so that the deflecting elements 34 are located above the inlet port 25.

Bei der oben beschriebenen Ausführungsform trifft die Anschlagschiene 41 auf die Querschiene 36 auf und verschiebt diese. Es ist aber auch möglich, die Verbindungsstangen 32 nicht durch eine Querschiene zu verbinden. In diesem Fall trifft die Anschlagschiene 41 direkt auf die Verbindungsstangen 32 auf.In the embodiment described above, the stop rail 41 meets the cross rail 36 and moves it. But it is also possible not to connect the connecting rods 32 by a cross rail. In this case, the stop rail 41 meets directly on the connecting rods 32.

Außerdem können anstatt der bei der oben beschriebenen Ausführungsform verwendeten Linearmotoren mit Schubstangen ebenso Servomotoren mit Spindeln zur Anwendung kommen.In addition, instead of the linear motors with push rods used in the above-described embodiment, servomotors with spindles may also be used.
