In each drawing, the right direction (first direction) is the X direction when viewed from the front, and the vertically upward direction is the Z direction, as indicated by arrows X and Z, respectively.
丁合・中入れ装置100は、丁合機構10(媒体処理部)、新聞供給機構20、新聞搬送・開き機構30(搬送・開き部)、および集積・揃え機構40を有する。新聞供給機構20は、装置を前方から見て丁合機構10の左側に隣接して配置され、新聞搬送・開き機構30は、丁合機構10および新聞供給機構20の前方に配置されている。集積・揃え機構40は、新聞搬送・開き機構30のさらに前方に配置されている。 The collating and inserting apparatus 100 includes a collating mechanism 10 (medium processing unit), a newspaper supply mechanism 20, a newspaper conveyance and opening mechanism 30 (conveyance and opening portion), and a stacking and aligning mechanism 40. The newspaper feeding mechanism 20 is disposed adjacent to the left side of the collating mechanism 10 when the apparatus is viewed from the front, and the newspaper transport and opening mechanism 30 is disposed in front of the collating mechanism 10 and the newspaper feeding mechanism 20. The accumulation and alignment mechanism 40 is disposed further to the front of the newspaper transport and opening mechanism 30.
このため、集積・揃え機構40の前方の下端には、作業員のつま先を入れるための凹所50が設けられている。凹所50を設けることで、作業員が丁合機構10に近付き易くなり、例えば、丁合機構10に対する折込ちらしtの投入作業やジャム処理などを容易にできる。 For this purpose, a recess 50 is provided at the front lower end of the accumulation and alignment mechanism 40 for inserting the toes of the workers.

At the same time as creating T, this collated bundle T is inserted into the newspaper P to create a sheet K.
図2は、丁合機構10を示す概略図である。
丁合機構10は、Z方向に長い略直方体形状の筐体1を有する。筐体1の前方(図示左側)および後方(図示右側)には、Z方向に並んだ複数段の給紙トレイ2が設けられている。給紙トレイ2は、その一部が筐体1の前方または後方から突出して設けられているが、図1では給紙トレイ2の図示を省略してある。
FIG. 2 is a schematic view showing the collating mechanism 10.
The collating mechanism 10 has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped casing 1 long in the Z direction. A plurality of paper feed trays 2 arranged in the Z direction are provided at the front (left side in the drawing) and the rear (right side in the drawing) of the housing 1. The paper feed tray 2 is partially provided to project from the front or back of the housing 1, but the paper feed tray 2 is not shown in FIG. 1.
各給紙トレイ2は、筐体1の内側に向けて下方に傾斜して取り付けられている。各給紙トレイ2には、数種類の折込ちらしtが複数枚重ねて投入される。複数の給紙トレイ2を介して同じ種類の折込ちらしtを投入することもできる。なお、筐体1の前方側の最下段にある給紙トレイ2aは、折り紙s(図3)を投入するための給紙トレイとして割り当てられている。折り紙sは、折込ちらしtの一種であってもよい。 Each paper feed tray 2 is attached to be inclined downward toward the inside of the housing 1. A plurality of types of folding leaflets t are stacked and fed to each sheet feeding tray 2. It is also possible to load the same type of folding sheet t through a plurality of sheet feeding trays 2. The lowermost sheet feed tray 2a on the front side of the housing 1 is assigned as a sheet feed tray for inserting the origami s (FIG. 3). Origami s may be a type of folding sheet t.
筐体1内には、筐体1の中心を通ってZ方向に延びた搬送パス3が設けられている。搬送パス3は、前方の複数段の給紙トレイ2と後方の複数段の給紙トレイ2の間でXZ平面に沿って設けられている。つまり、各給紙トレイ2から所定のタイミングで取り出された折込ちらしtが搬送パス3へ送り込まれて互いに重ねられる。そして、重なった状態の複数枚の折込ちらしtが搬送パス3を介して下方へ搬送される。搬送パス3には、重なった状態の複数枚の折込ちらしtを挟持して搬送するための複数組の搬送ローラ対4が設けられている。 In the housing 1, a transport path 3 extending in the Z direction through the center of the housing 1 is provided. The transport path 3 is provided along the XZ plane between the front multiple sheet feed trays 2 and the rear multiple sheet feed trays 2. In other words, the folding flaps t taken out from the respective sheet feeding trays 2 at a predetermined timing are sent to the conveying path 3 and are superimposed on each other. Then, the plurality of folded leaflets t in the overlapping state are transported downward through the transport path 3. The transport path 3 is provided with a plurality of transport roller pairs 4 for sandwiching and transporting a plurality of folded leaflets t in an overlapping state.
各給紙トレイ2の傾斜方向の下端側、すなわち搬送パス3に近い中心寄りの端部には、それぞれ、第1給紙ローラ5および第2給紙ローラ6が設けられている。第1給紙ローラ5は、給紙トレイ2上に重ねて投入された複数枚の折込ちらしtの最上端の折込ちらしtに接触して回転する。第1給紙ローラ5より折込ちらしtの取り出し方向の下流側に設けた第2給紙ローラ6は、捌き板7に2枚目以降の折込ちらしtの先端を押し付けて2枚取りを防止する。折込ちらしtの給紙方向に沿って第2給紙ローラ6の下流側には、搬送パス3へ折込ちらしtを送り込む送りローラ対8が設けられている。 A first sheet feeding roller 5 and a second sheet feeding roller 6 are provided at the lower end side of the sheet feeding tray 2 in the inclination direction, that is, at the end near the center close to the conveying path 3. The first sheet feeding roller 5 is rotated in contact with the uppermost end of the plurality of folding leaflets t which are stacked and fed onto the sheet feeding tray 2. The second sheet feeding roller 6 provided on the downstream side of the first sheet feeding roller 5 in the takeout direction of the folded sheet t presses the leading end of the second sheet and subsequent folded sheet t against the light sheet 7 to prevent taking of two sheets. . On the downstream side of the second sheet feeding roller 6 along the sheet feeding direction of the folding and folding sheet t, a feed roller pair 8 is provided for feeding the folding and folding sheet t into the transport path 3.
搬送パス3の下端には、折りローラ対9が配置されている。折りローラ対9は、そのニップが搬送パス3の延長線上に位置する姿勢で設けられている。つまり、搬送パス3を介して下方へ搬送された複数枚の折込ちらしtが折りローラ対9のニップへ送り込まれるようになっている。 At the lower end of the conveyance path 3, a folding roller pair 9 is disposed. The folding roller pair 9 is provided in a posture in which the nip is located on the extension of the conveyance path 3. In other words, a plurality of folding flaps t transported downward through the transport path 3 are fed into the nip of the pair of folding rollers 9.
折り紙sを給紙するための給紙トレイ2aの給紙方向の下流側(図示右側)には、給紙トレイ2aを介して投入された折り紙sを折りローラ対9の上方へ送り込むための送りローラ対8aが設けられている。折り紙sの給紙方向の先端には、折り紙sの先端を所定位置で係止する係止部11が設けられている。係止部11は、折り紙sの給紙方向の中央位置が折りローラ対9のニップに対向する位置で折り紙sを停止させる。折りローラ対9の斜め上方には、折りローラ対9のニップに向けて折り紙sの中央部を押し込むための折込ナイフ12が配置されている。 On the downstream side (right side in the drawing) of the paper feed tray 2a for feeding the origami s, the feed for feeding the origami s inserted through the paper feed tray 2a above the folding roller pair 9 A roller pair 8a is provided. At the leading end in the sheet feeding direction of the origami s, a locking portion 11 for locking the leading end of the origami s at a predetermined position is provided. The locking portion 11 stops the origami s at a position where the central position of the origami s in the sheet feeding direction faces the nip of the folding roller pair 9. A folding knife 12 is disposed diagonally above the folding roller pair 9 for pushing the central portion of the origami s toward the nip of the folding roller pair 9.
つまり、各給紙トレイ2を介して投入された折込ちらしtが搬送パス3で重ねられて折りローラ対9のニップへ送り込まれる。このとき、予め給紙された折り紙sの中央を折込ナイフ12によって折り込んでおく。そして、重なった状態で搬送パス3を介して搬送された複数枚の折込ちらしtが折り紙sの中央に押し込まれ、折りローラ対9の回転によって折り紙sの間に挟み込まれる。折りローラ対9を通過して2つ折りにされた折込ちらしの束、すなわち折り紙sの間に複数枚の折込ちらしtを挟んだ丁合束Tは、搬送ベルト13へ受け渡されて排出ローラ対14を介して筐体1の前方に設けた排出口15から排出される。 That is, the folded and inserted documents t inserted through the respective sheet feeding trays 2 are overlapped by the conveying path 3 and fed to the nip of the pair of folding rollers 9. At this time, the center of the origami s fed in advance is folded in by the folding knife 12. Then, in the overlapped state, a plurality of folded and folded documents t conveyed via the conveyance path 3 are pushed into the center of the origami s, and are sandwiched between the origami s by the rotation of the folding roller pair 9. A bundle of folded leaflets passed through the folding roller pair 9 and folded in two, that is, a collated bundle T having a plurality of folded leaflets t sandwiched between origami s, is delivered to the transport belt 13 and discharged roller pair It is discharged from the discharge port 15 provided in the front of the housing 1 through 14.
図3は、丁合機構10の排出口15から排出された丁合束Tの一例を示す外観斜視図である。丁合束Tは、その排出方向(Y方向)の先端T−1側を折り紙sによって覆われた状態でY方向に排出される。なお、本実施形態では、折り紙sの排出方向に沿った一端s−1(排出方向から見た右端部)が複数枚の折込ちらしtの端部t−1と略揃った状態で丁合束Tを排出するように、折り紙sのX方向に沿った給紙位置を調整可能となっている。 FIG. 3 is an external perspective view showing an example of a collated bundle T discharged from the discharge port 15 of the collating mechanism 10. The collated bundle T is discharged in the Y direction with the leading end T-1 side in the discharge direction (Y direction) covered by the origami s. In the present embodiment, in the state in which one end s-1 (right end as viewed from the discharge direction) along the discharge direction of the origami s is substantially aligned with the end t-1 of the plurality of folding leaflets t The sheet feeding position along the X direction of the origami s can be adjusted so as to eject T.
図4は、新聞供給機構20の投入部21を介して丁合・中入れ装置100へ投入される新聞Pの折り畳み方を説明するための図である。新聞Pは、図4(c)に示す折り目P−1が下を向き、且つ折り目P−2が装置の前方から見て右側になる立位の姿勢で投入部21へ投入される。 FIG. 4 is a view for explaining how to fold the newspaper P input to the collating / inserting device 100 through the input unit 21 of the newspaper supply mechanism 20. As shown in FIG. The newspaper P is inserted into the input unit 21 in a standing position in which the fold line P-1 shown in FIG. 4C is directed downward and the fold line P-2 is on the right side when viewed from the front of the apparatus.
新聞は、図4(a)に示すようにA1サイズの新聞紙を複数枚重ねた状態から中央の破線で図示矢印のように2つ折りにし、さらに図4(b)に示すようにA2サイズの2つ折りの複数枚の新聞紙を中央の破線で矢印のように2つ折りにした状態(4つ折りにした状態)のもの(略A3サイズに折り畳んだ新聞)(図4c)を複数部重ねた状態で投入部21へ投入される。投入部21へ投入された新聞Pは、折り目P−1を先頭にして下方に取り出される。 As shown in FIG. 4 (a), the newspaper is folded in half as shown by a broken line in the center from a state in which a plurality of newspaper sheets of A1 size are stacked, and as shown in FIG. 4 (b) A state in which a plurality of single-folded newspaper sheets are folded in half like a broken arrow in the center (in a state of being folded in four) (a newspaper folded into approximately A3 size) (FIG. It is input to the part 21. The newspaper P input to the input unit 21 is extracted downward with the crease P-1 at the top.
次に、上述した丁合・中入れ装置100による丁合モード時の動作について説明する。動作に先だち、オペレータは、丁合機構10の各給紙トレイ2、2aに折込ちらしtを投入する。 Next, the operation in the collating mode by the collating and inserting apparatus 100 described above will be described. Prior to the operation, the operator inserts the folding flap t into each of the sheet feeding trays 2 and 2a of the collating mechanism 10.
そして、図示しない操作入力パネルを介して丁合モードによる処理コマンドが入力されると、所定の給紙トレイ2から折込ちらしtが1枚ずつ搬送パス3へ給紙されて重ねられ、重ねられた複数枚の折込ちらしtが搬送パス3を介して下方へ搬送され、複数枚の折込ちらしtが折り紙sに挟み込まれた丁合束Tが排出口15から排出される。 Then, when a processing command in the collating mode is input through the operation input panel (not shown), the folding flaps t are fed one by one to the conveyance path 3 from the predetermined sheet feeding tray 2 and overlapped and overlapped. A plurality of folded leaflets t are conveyed downward via the transport path 3, and a collated bundle T in which the plurality of folded leaflets t are sandwiched by the origami s is discharged from the discharge port 15.
排出口15から排出された丁合束Tは、方向変換部60のフリー空間Fを通ってY方向にフライング搬送され、Y方向に走行する排出コンベア39上に落下し、排出コンベア39の走行により集積・揃え機構40へ順次排出されて積重ねられる。このとき、集積・揃え機構40に設けた図示しないX方向叩き板およびY方向叩き板が動作され、集積される丁合束Tの端辺が揃えられる。 The collated bundle T discharged from the discharge port 15 is flying and conveyed in the Y direction through the free space F of the direction conversion unit 60, falls onto the discharge conveyor 39 traveling in the Y direction, and travels by the discharge conveyor 39 It is sequentially discharged to the stacking and aligning mechanism 40 and stacked. At this time, an X-direction strike plate and a Y-direction strike plate (not shown) provided in the accumulation and alignment mechanism 40 are operated to align the end sides of the collected bundle T.
所定数の丁合束Tが排出口15から排出されて、集積・揃え機構40にて丁合束Tを積重ねながら端辺を揃えると、丁合機構10の動作が停止されて、所定数の丁合束TがX方向へ排出されて図示しないリフターへ移載される。このとき、複数組の丁合束Tがその集積方向と異なるX方向に水平移動されるため、丁合束Tの姿勢が崩れにくい。 When a predetermined number of collated bundles T are discharged from the discharge port 15 and the end sides are aligned while stacking collated bundles T by the accumulation and alignment mechanism 40, the operation of the collating mechanism 10 is stopped, and the predetermined number The collated bundle T is discharged in the X direction and transferred to a lifter (not shown). At this time, since the plurality of sets of collated bundles T are horizontally moved in the X direction different from the stacking direction, the posture of the collated bundles T is less likely to collapse.
次に、上述した丁合・中入れ装置100による丁合・中入れモード時の動作について説明する。なお、中入れモード時の動作は、折込ちらしの丁合動作が無いだけで丁合・中入れモードと同じであるため、ここではその説明を省略する。 Next, the operation in the collating and inserting mode by the above collating and inserting apparatus 100 will be described. In addition, since the operation | movement at the time of a centering-in mode is the same as a collation / centering-in mode except only there is no collation operation | movement of a folding | covering, the description is abbreviate | omitted here.
丁合・中入れモードにおける動作に先だち、オペレータは、丁合機構10の各給紙トレイ2、2aに折込ちらしtを投入して、新聞供給機構20の投入部21へ複数部の新聞Pを投入する。 Prior to the operation in the collating / interlacing mode, the operator inserts the folding leaflets t into the respective sheet feeding trays 2 and 2a of the collating mechanism 10, and inserts a plurality of newspapers P into the inserting portion 21 of the newspaper supplying mechanism 20. throw into.
この状態で、図示しない操作入力パネルを介して丁合・中入れモードによる処理コマンドが入力されると、新聞供給機構20によって新聞Pが1部ずつ取り出され、上述した丁合モードのときと同様に丁合束Tが作成されて排出口15から排出される。このとき、新聞Pを排出コンベア39へ送り込むタイミングと丁合束Tを排出コンベア39に向けて排出するタイミングが合うように、新聞Pの処理速度や取り出しタイミングが調整してある。 In this state, when a processing command in the collating / inserting mode is input via the operation input panel (not shown), the newspaper supply mechanism 20 takes out a part of the newspaper P one by one, as in the collating mode described above. The collated bundle T is created and discharged from the discharge port 15. At this time, the processing speed and the extraction timing of the newspaper P are adjusted so that the timing of sending the newspaper P to the discharge conveyor 39 and the timing of discharging the doubled bundle T toward the discharge conveyor 39 match.
新聞供給機構20によって新聞Pが新聞搬送・開き機構30へ送り込まれると、当該新聞PがX方向に搬送され、新聞搬送・開き機構30のX方向の下流側にある方向変換部60のフリー空間Fへ送り込まれる。このとき、新聞Pは、フリー空間Fを通ってフライング搬送されるとともに、新聞Pの上側部分P1と下側部分P2が開かれる。そして、新聞Pの搬送タイミングに合わせてフリー空間Fへ送り込まれた丁合束Tが上側部分P1と下側部分P2との間の隙間に挿入され、組紙Kが形成されて排出コンベア39上に落下されて載置される。 When the newspaper P is fed to the newspaper transport / opening mechanism 30 by the newspaper supply mechanism 20, the newspaper P is transported in the X direction, and the free space of the direction conversion unit 60 downstream of the newspaper transport / opening mechanism 30 in the X direction. It is sent to F. At this time, the newspaper P is flying and transported through the free space F, and the upper portion P1 and the lower portion P2 of the newspaper P are opened. Then, the collated bundle T sent into the free space F in accordance with the transport timing of the newspaper P is inserted into the gap between the upper portion P1 and the lower portion P2, and the paper sheet K is formed on the discharge conveyor 39. Dropped and placed.
このようにして丁合束Tが新聞Pに中入れされた組紙Kは、排出コンベア39を介して集積・揃え機構40に送り込まれ、積重ねられながら端辺を揃えられる。所定数の組紙Kが集積されると、集積された所定数の組紙K(図示せず)がX方向へ排出され、図示しないリフターへ移載される。 In this way, the paper sheet K in which the collated bundle T is inserted in the newspaper P is sent to the accumulation / alignment mechanism 40 via the discharge conveyor 39, and the edges are aligned while being stacked. When the predetermined number of sheets K are stacked, the predetermined number of stacked sheets K (not shown) are discharged in the X direction and transferred to a lifter (not shown).
以上のように、本実施形態の丁合・中入れ装置100によると、丁合モードおよび中入れモードに加えて丁合・中入れモードによる動作が可能となる。丁合・中入れモードでは、新聞Pを開いて搬送すると同時に丁合束Tを作成して中入れするようにしたため、折込ちらしの丁合と同時に新聞Pへの中入れが可能となり、組紙Kを綺麗に揃えることができる。このため、例えば、折り紙sを用いずに複数枚の折込ちらしtを重ねただけの丁合束Tを新聞Pに中入れすることもできる。 As described above, according to the collating and inserting apparatus 100 of the present embodiment, in addition to the collating mode and the inserting mode, the operation in the collating and inserting mode becomes possible. In the collated / interleaved mode, the newspaper P is opened and conveyed, and at the same time, the collated bundle T is created to be inserted in, so the interlacing into the newspaper P becomes possible simultaneously with the collating of the folding leaflets, K can be neatly arranged. For this reason, for example, it is also possible to insert in the newspaper P a collated bundle T in which only a plurality of folding leaflets t are stacked without using the origami s.
よって、本実施形態によると、オペレータによる作業負担を軽減でき、処理効率を高めることができる。さらに、本実施形態によると、従来のように丁合機で作成した丁合束をインサーター(丁合束を新聞に中入れする装置)に投入する必要がなく、オペレータによる作業コストを抑えることができる。 Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the workload on the operator can be reduced, and the processing efficiency can be improved. Furthermore, according to the present embodiment, it is not necessary to insert a collated bundle created by a collating machine as in the prior art into an inserter (an apparatus for inserting the collated bundle into a newspaper), thereby reducing the operation cost by the operator. Can.
図5は、新聞搬送・開き機構30を拡大した概略図である。
新聞供給機構20の投入部21から取り出された新聞Pは、折り目P−1を先頭にして鉛直下方に導かれ、投入部21と新聞搬送・開き機構30との間に配置した上側送りベルト25aおよび下側送りベルト25b(以下、まとめて送りベルト対25と称する場合もある)を介して、新聞搬送・開き機構30へ送り込まれる。このとき、新聞Pは、上側送りベルト25aと下側送りベルト25bとの間に挟まれて、装置の前方へ向けて湾曲されてY方向に搬送され、略水平な姿勢に姿勢変換されて新聞搬送・開き機構30の搬送コンベア31(第1搬送部)上に落下されて載置される。
FIG. 5 is an enlarged schematic view of the newspaper transport and opening mechanism 30. As shown in FIG.
The newspaper P taken out from the input unit 21 of the newspaper supply mechanism 20 is guided vertically downward with the fold line P-1 at the top, and the upper feed belt 25a disposed between the input unit 21 and the newspaper conveyance / opening mechanism 30. And the lower feed belt 25b (hereinafter, may be collectively referred to as a feed belt pair 25), it is fed to the newspaper transport and opening mechanism 30. At this time, the newspaper P is sandwiched between the upper feed belt 25a and the lower feed belt 25b, is curved toward the front of the device, is conveyed in the Y direction, and is converted into a substantially horizontal attitude, so that the newspaper It is dropped and placed on the transport conveyor 31 (first transport unit) of the transport / opening mechanism 30.
新聞搬送・開き機構30は、新聞供給機構20のフロント側で送りベルト対25の新聞排出部25cより下方に配置された搬送コンベア31を有する。搬送コンベア31は、X方向に離間してY方向に互いに平行に延びた一対のベルトローラ32、33に無端状の搬送ベルト34を巻回してX方向に張設した構造を有する。 The newspaper transport and opening mechanism 30 has a transport conveyor 31 disposed on the front side of the newspaper supply mechanism 20 below the newspaper discharge unit 25 c of the feed belt pair 25. The conveyor 31 has a structure in which an endless conveyor belt 34 is wound around a pair of belt rollers 32 and 33 which are separated in the X direction and extend in parallel to each other in the Y direction and stretched in the X direction.
搬送コンベア31は、搬送ベルト34の上面34a(搬送ベルト34の表面が上方を向く姿勢で走行する部位の上面)を略水平面に沿ってX方向に走行させる。搬送コンベア31は、搬送ベルト34の上面34aの新聞供給機構20側の端縁がY方向の前方の端縁よりわずかに上方に傾斜する姿勢で設けられている。搬送コンベア31の搬送ベルト34の上面34aは、新聞供給機構20から送り込まれて落下した新聞Pを載置する面として機能する。 The transport conveyor 31 causes the top surface 34 a of the transport belt 34 (the top surface of the part traveling with the posture in which the surface of the transport belt 34 faces upward) to travel in the X direction along a substantially horizontal plane. The transport conveyor 31 is provided such that the edge of the upper surface 34 a of the transport belt 34 on the newspaper supply mechanism 20 side is inclined slightly upward from the front edge in the Y direction. The upper surface 34 a of the transport belt 34 of the transport conveyor 31 functions as a surface on which the newspaper P which has been sent from the newspaper supply mechanism 20 and dropped falls.
搬送コンベア31の上面34aの前方、すなわち搬送ベルト34のX方向に沿った前方の端縁に対向する位置には、新聞供給機構20の送りベルト対25を介して搬送コンベア31上に送り込まれた新聞PのY方向の先端(折り目P−1)を突き当てる突き当て板35が設けられている。図5では、搬送コンベア31を見易くするため、突き当て板35を破線で示してある。 The upper surface 34 a of the conveyer 31 is fed onto the conveyer 31 via the feed belt pair 25 of the newspaper supply mechanism 20 at a position opposite to the front end edge along the X direction of the conveyer belt 34. An abutment plate 35 is provided to abut the tip of the newspaper P in the Y direction (fold P-1). In FIG. 5, in order to make the transport conveyor 31 easy to see, the abutment plate 35 is shown by a broken line.
突き当て板35は、Y方向に送り込まれた新聞Pの先端を突き当てて、新聞PのY方向への搬送を停止させる。突き当て板35に先端を突き当てた新聞Pは、自重により搬送ベルト34の上面34aに落下する。突き当て板35は、その上端が後方に傾く姿勢で傾斜して取り付けられている。 The abutment plate 35 abuts the tip of the newspaper P fed in the Y direction, and stops the transportation of the newspaper P in the Y direction. The newspaper P having its tip end butted against the abutment plate 35 falls onto the upper surface 34 a of the transport belt 34 by its own weight. The abutment plate 35 is attached in an inclined manner with its upper end inclined rearward.
搬送コンベア31がX方向に走行すると、新聞供給機構20から送り込まれて搬送ベルト34の上面34a上に落下した新聞Pは、その搬送方向を90°方向変換されてX方向に搬送される。 When the conveyor 31 travels in the X direction, the newspaper P fed from the newspaper supply mechanism 20 and dropped onto the upper surface 34 a of the conveyor belt 34 is 90 ° converted in the conveyance direction and conveyed in the X direction.
新聞搬送・開き機構30は、搬送コンベア31の搬送方向(X方向)下流側の端部に隣接した方向変換部60のフリー空間Fに突出した吸着回動部材37および分離板38を備えている。吸着回動部材37および分離板38は、丁合機構10の排出口15の前方に対向する位置に配置されている。より詳細には、吸着回動部材37および分離板38は、排出ローラ対14を介して丁合機構10の排出口15からY方向に排出された丁合束Tが、分離板38の下面に沿って新聞Pの上側部分P1と下側部分P2の間に送り込まれるように位置決めされている。 The newspaper transport and opening mechanism 30 includes an adsorption rotation member 37 and a separation plate 38 which project into the free space F of the direction conversion unit 60 adjacent to the downstream end of the transport conveyor 31 in the transport direction (X direction). . The suction and rotation member 37 and the separation plate 38 are disposed at a position facing the front of the discharge port 15 of the collating mechanism 10. More specifically, in the suction rotation member 37 and the separation plate 38, the collated bundle T discharged in the Y direction from the discharge port 15 of the collation mechanism 10 through the discharge roller pair 14 is on the lower surface of the separation plate 38. It is positioned so as to be fed between the upper part P1 and the lower part P2 of the newspaper P along.
吸着回動部材37は、搬送ベルト34の後方に片寄った位置で搬送ベルト34の上面34aより下方に配置されている。吸着回動部材37は、搬送コンベア31を通過した新聞Pの下側部分P2(図4c)に負圧を作用させて吸着し、搬送面から離れる方向(下方)に回動する。吸着回動部材37は、新聞Pが搬送される度に動作し、新聞Pの下側部分P2が上側部分P1から少なくとも離間する短い時間だけ下側部分P2に負圧を作用させる。すなわち、吸着回動部材37によって吸着されて下方に開かれた新聞Pの下側部分P2は、吸着回動部材37による負圧が解消された後、自重によりさらに下方に開く。 The suction and rotation member 37 is disposed below the upper surface 34 a of the conveyance belt 34 at a position offset to the rear of the conveyance belt 34. The suction and rotation member 37 applies a negative pressure to the lower portion P2 (FIG. 4c) of the newspaper P which has passed through the transport conveyor 31, sucks it, and pivots in a direction (downward) away from the transport surface. The suction and rotation member 37 operates every time the newspaper P is transported, and applies a negative pressure to the lower portion P2 for a short time at least when the lower portion P2 of the newspaper P is separated from the upper portion P1. That is, the lower portion P2 of the newspaper P which is sucked downward by the suction and rotation member 37 and opened downward is further opened downward by its own weight after the negative pressure by the suction and rotation member 37 is eliminated.
分離板38は、搬送ベルト34の後方に片寄った位置で搬送コンベア31の搬送方向(X方向)下流側の端部に隣接して配置され、搬送コンベア31を通過した新聞Pの上側部分P1を下から支える。分離板38は、搬送コンベア31の搬送面と略同じ高さ位置で吸着回動部材37より上方に配置されている。つまり、分離板38は、新聞Pの下側部分P2を吸着して回動する吸着回動部材37と協働して、新聞Pの上側部分P1と下側部分P2を分離するよう機能する。 The separation plate 38 is disposed adjacent to the downstream end of the transport conveyor 31 in the transport direction (X direction) at a position offset to the rear of the transport belt 34, and the upper portion P1 of the newspaper P passing through the transport conveyor 31 Support from below. The separation plate 38 is disposed above the suction and rotation member 37 at substantially the same height position as the conveyance surface of the conveyance conveyor 31. That is, the separation plate 38 functions to separate the upper portion P1 and the lower portion P2 of the newspaper P in cooperation with the suction and rotation member 37 which sucks and rotates the lower portion P2 of the newspaper P.
すなわち、搬送ベルト34の上面34aに載置されてX方向に搬送された新聞Pの搬送方向の先端が搬送コンベア31の下流側の端部から外れてフリー空間Fにさしかかると、搬送ベルト34の後方に片寄った位置で新聞Pの下側部分P2が吸着回動部材37によって吸着されて下方に開かれる。このとき、新聞Pの上側部分P1は、分離板38の上を通って移動し、新聞Pの上側部分P1と下側部分P2が分離される。そして、新聞Pの上側部分P1と下側部分P2が開かれたタイミングで、丁合機構10の排出口15から丁合束Tが排出され、上側部分P1と下側部分P2の間に挿入される。 That is, when the leading end in the conveyance direction of the newspaper P placed on the upper surface 34 a of the conveyance belt 34 and conveyed in the X direction is separated from the downstream end of the conveyance conveyor 31 and approaches the free space F, The lower portion P2 of the newspaper P is sucked by the suction and rotation member 37 and opened downward at a position offset to the rear. At this time, the upper part P1 of the newspaper P moves above the separating plate 38, and the upper part P1 and the lower part P2 of the newspaper P are separated. Then, at the timing when the upper part P1 and the lower part P2 of the newspaper P are opened, the collated bundle T is discharged from the discharge port 15 of the collating mechanism 10 and inserted between the upper part P1 and the lower part P2. Ru.
X方向に沿った搬送コンベア31の下流側で分離板38(丁合束Tを新聞Pに中入れする中入れ位置)の下方には、排出コンベア39(第2搬送部、搬出部)が設けられている。排出コンベア39は、搬送コンベア31と同様に、一対のベルトローラに無端状のベルトを巻回して張設したものであり、その上面39aがY方向に走行する向きで設けられている。つまり、排出コンベア39による組紙Kの移動方向は、搬送コンベア31による新聞Pの搬送方向とは約90°異なる。 A discharge conveyor 39 (a second conveyance unit, a discharge unit) is provided below the separation plate 38 (the insertion position for inserting the gathering bundle T into the newspaper P) on the downstream side of the conveyance conveyor 31 along the X direction. It is done. Similar to the transport conveyor 31, the discharge conveyor 39 is an endless belt wound around a pair of belt rollers and stretched, and the upper surface 39a of the discharge conveyor 39 is provided to run in the Y direction. That is, the moving direction of the paper sheet K by the discharge conveyor 39 is different by about 90 ° from the conveyance direction of the newspaper P by the conveyance conveyor 31.
排出コンベア39は、その上面39aが搬送コンベア31の上面34aより低い位置に配置されている。このため、搬送コンベア31によりX方向にフライング搬送された新聞Pが排出コンベア39の上面39aに落下する。なお、搬送コンベア31から排出コンベア39へ落下する途中で、上述したように、新聞Pの上側部分P1と下側部分P2の間に丁合束Tが挿入されて組紙Kが形成される。つまり、組紙Kが排出コンベア39の上面39aに落下する。 The discharge conveyor 39 is disposed at a position where the upper surface 39 a is lower than the upper surface 34 a of the transport conveyor 31. Therefore, the newspaper P flying and transported in the X direction by the transport conveyor 31 falls onto the upper surface 39 a of the discharge conveyor 39. In the meantime, as described above, the collating bundle T is inserted between the upper portion P1 and the lower portion P2 of the newspaper P while being dropped from the transport conveyor 31 to the discharge conveyor 39, and the paper sheet K is formed. That is, the paper sheet K falls onto the upper surface 39 a of the discharge conveyor 39.
図6は、方向変換部60を斜め上方から見た外観斜視図である。図7は、第1の実施形態に係る押えプレート64(押え部材)を含む方向変換部60の構成を示す概略図である。搬送コンベア31と排出コンベア39の間には、XY平面と平行な搬送ガイド66が設けられている。以下、方向変換部60の構成および作用について、図6および図7を参照して説明する。 FIG. 6 is an external perspective view of the direction conversion unit 60 as viewed obliquely from above. FIG. 7 is a schematic view showing the configuration of the direction conversion unit 60 including the pressing plate 64 (pressing member) according to the first embodiment. A conveyance guide 66 parallel to the XY plane is provided between the conveyance conveyor 31 and the discharge conveyor 39. Hereinafter, the configuration and operation of the direction conversion unit 60 will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7.
方向変換部60は、搬送コンベア31によってフリー空間Fへ送り込まれた新聞PのX方向の先端(折り目P−2)を突き当てる突き当て壁62(突き当て部材)を有する。また、方向変換部60は、突き当て壁62に先端を突き当てた新聞Pの逆方向への跳ね返り(戻り)を抑えるように当該新聞PのX方向の後端に当接可能な押えプレート64を有する。 The direction changing unit 60 has a butting wall 62 (abutment member) for abutting the tip (fold P-2) of the newspaper P fed into the free space F by the transport conveyor 31 in the X direction. Further, the direction conversion unit 60 is capable of abutting against the rear end of the newspaper P in the X direction so as to suppress the rebound (return) in the reverse direction of the newspaper P whose front end is abutted against the abutment wall 62. Have.
突き当て壁62は、排出コンベア39の上方のフリー空間FのX方向下流側に配置され、YZ平面と略平行な平らな突き当て面62aを有する。突き当て面62aは、Y方向に沿って、新聞PのX方向の先端と略同じ長さを有する。また、突き当て面62aは、Z方向に沿って、少なくとも搬送コンベア31の上面34aを超える高さを有する。突き当て壁62は、搬送コンベア31を介してX方向に搬送されてフリー空間Fへ送り込まれた新聞PのX方向の先端を突き当てて、新聞PのX方向への搬送を停止させる。 The abutment wall 62 is disposed on the downstream side of the free space F in the X direction above the discharge conveyor 39, and has a flat abutment surface 62a substantially parallel to the YZ plane. The abutment surface 62a has substantially the same length along the Y direction as the tip of the newspaper P in the X direction. Also, the abutment surface 62a has a height that exceeds at least the upper surface 34a of the transport conveyor 31 along the Z direction. The abutting wall 62 abuts on the tip of the newspaper P conveyed in the X direction via the conveyer 31 and sent into the free space F in the X direction, and stops the conveyance of the newspaper P in the X direction.
押えプレート64は、例えば、1枚の金属板を形状加工して折り曲げた構造を有する。押えプレート64は、Y方向に延設した回動軸71を中心に固定フレーム61に対して回動可能に取り付けられている。押えプレート64は、回動軸71を介して固定フレーム61に一端を回動自在に取り付けた上流側傾斜板部72、上流側傾斜板部72の他端に連続した平板部74、および平板部74に連続した下流側傾斜板部76を一体に有する。押えプレート64は、搬送コンベア31のX方向の下流側で上面34aに対向して搬送ベルト34のY方向の中心で固定フレーム61に取り付けられている。 The holding plate 64 has, for example, a structure in which one metal plate is shaped and bent. The pressing plate 64 is rotatably attached to the fixed frame 61 around a pivot shaft 71 extending in the Y direction. The pressing plate 64 has an upstream inclined plate portion 72 rotatably attached at one end to the fixed frame 61 via a rotating shaft 71, a flat plate portion 74 connected to the other end of the upstream inclined plate portion 72, and a flat plate portion A downstream side inclined plate portion 76 continuous with 74 is integrally provided. The pressing plate 64 is attached to the fixed frame 61 at the center of the transport belt 34 in the Y direction so as to face the upper surface 34 a on the downstream side of the transport conveyor 31 in the X direction.
押えプレート64は、搬送コンベア31を介して新聞Pを搬送していない図7に示す状態で、図示の押え位置に配置されており、その自重により回動軸71を中心に図示時計回り方向に付勢されている。例えば、この状態で、押えプレート64の一部(例えば上流側傾斜板部72)が搬送コンベア31のX方向の下流側端部近くに押し付けられている。このとき、押えプレート64による図示時計回り方向の押圧力は、適当な重り80を平板部74に乗せることで調整可能である。 The pressing plate 64 is disposed at the pressing position shown in the drawing in the state shown in FIG. 7 in which the newspaper P is not transported via the transport conveyor 31, and its own weight in the clockwise direction around the pivot shaft 71. It is energized. For example, in this state, a part of the pressing plate 64 (for example, the upstream inclined plate portion 72) is pressed near the downstream end of the transport conveyor 31 in the X direction. At this time, the pressing force in the clockwise direction in the figure by the pressing plate 64 can be adjusted by placing an appropriate weight 80 on the flat plate portion 74.
押えプレート64の上流側傾斜板部72は、図7に示す押え位置に押えプレート64を配置した状態で、XY平面に対してX方向に向けてわずかに下方に傾斜している。上流側傾斜板部72が自重により搬送コンベア31に接触しているため、図7の状態で搬送コンベア31を介してX方向に新聞Pが搬送されると、新聞PのX方向の先端が上流側傾斜板部72の下面に衝突する。そして、新聞Pの衝突による押圧力が上流側傾斜板部72を持ち上げる方向に作用し、押えプレート64が回動軸71を中心に反時計回り方向に回動する。これにより、押えプレート64が図示しない退避位置へ回動され、新聞Pの通過が許容される。 The upstream inclined plate portion 72 of the pressing plate 64 is slightly inclined downward in the X direction with respect to the XY plane in a state where the pressing plate 64 is disposed at the pressing position shown in FIG. 7. Since the upstream side inclined plate portion 72 is in contact with the conveyer 31 by its own weight, when the newspaper P is conveyed in the X direction via the conveyer 31 in the state of FIG. It collides with the lower surface of the side inclined plate portion 72. Then, the pressing force due to the collision of the newspaper P acts in the direction of lifting the upstream inclined plate portion 72, and the pressing plate 64 pivots counterclockwise around the pivot shaft 71. Thus, the pressing plate 64 is pivoted to the retracted position (not shown), and the passage of the newspaper P is permitted.
一方、押えプレート64の回動の先端側にある下流側傾斜板部76は、図7に示す押え位置に押えプレート64を配置した状態で、鉛直方向に延びたYZ平面に対してその上端が下端よりX方向(フリー空間F側)にわずかに傾斜している。また、この状態で、下流側傾斜板部76のフリー空間F側の当接面78は、新聞Pの搬送経路上に配置されている。このため、フリー空間Fへ送り込まれた新聞PのX方向の後端が押えプレート64を通過して押えプレート64が図7に示す押え位置に戻った状態で、突き当て壁62に先端が衝突した新聞Pが跳ね返って逆方向に戻った場合であっても、新聞PのX方向の後端を下流側傾斜板部76の当接面78に当接させることができ、新聞Pの跳ね返りを抑えることができる。 On the other hand, the downstream inclined plate portion 76 located on the tip end side of the rotation of the pressing plate 64 has its upper end against the YZ plane extending in the vertical direction with the pressing plate 64 arranged at the pressing position shown in FIG. It is slightly inclined in the X direction (free space F side) from the lower end. Further, in this state, the contact surface 78 on the free space F side of the downstream side inclined plate portion 76 is disposed on the transport path of the newspaper P. Therefore, with the rear end of the newspaper P fed into the free space F in the X direction passing through the pressing plate 64 and the pressing plate 64 returning to the pressing position shown in FIG. Even in the case where the newspaper P which is carried out bounces back and returns in the opposite direction, the rear end of the newspaper P in the X direction can be made to abut on the abutment surface 78 of the downstream side inclined plate portion 76. It can be suppressed.
本実施形態では、図7に示す押え位置に押えプレート64を配置した状態で、押えプレート64の下流側傾斜板部76の当接面78と突き当て壁62の突き当て面62aとの間のX方向に沿った距離を、新聞PのX方向の幅よりわずかに大きくしている。このため、突き当て壁62の突き当て面62aに先端が衝突した新聞Pが逆方向に跳ね返る不具合をほとんど無くすことができ、フリー空間Fへ送り込まれた新聞PのX方向の停止位置を所望する位置に高精度に制御することができる。 In the present embodiment, in a state where the pressing plate 64 is disposed at the pressing position shown in FIG. 7, the contact surface 78 of the downstream inclined plate portion 76 of the pressing plate 64 and the abutting surface 62 a of the abutting wall 62 The distance along the X direction is slightly larger than the width of the newspaper P in the X direction. For this reason, it is possible to almost eliminate the problem that the newspaper P whose tip collides with the abutment surface 62a of the abutment wall 62 bounces back in the reverse direction, and the stop position in the X direction of the newspaper P sent into the free space F is desired. The position can be controlled with high precision.
よって、本実施形態によると、フリー空間Fへ送り込まれた新聞Pを所望する位置に確実に停止させることができ、排出コンベア39に対する当該新聞Pの落下位置を高精度に制御することができる。このため、排出コンベア39上に落下した新聞PをY方向に確実に搬出することができ、方向変換部60にて、新聞Pの搬送ジャムを生じることなく、新聞Pの搬送方向を確実且つ安定して変えることができる。 Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the newspaper P sent into the free space F can be reliably stopped at a desired position, and the dropping position of the newspaper P relative to the discharge conveyor 39 can be controlled with high accuracy. Therefore, the newspaper P dropped onto the discharge conveyor 39 can be reliably carried out in the Y direction, and the direction conversion unit 60 reliably and stably carries the newspaper P without causing jamming of the newspaper P. Can be changed.
また、本実施形態によると、上述したようにフリー空間Fへ送り込んだ新聞Pの間に丁合束Tを挿入するため、丁合束TのX方向に沿った挿入位置を安定させることができ、全ての組紙Kにおいて丁合束TのX方向の挿入位置を一定にすることができる。このため、後段の集積・揃え機構40において複数部の組紙Kを集積したとき、複数部の組紙Kの端部をよりきれいに揃えることができる。 Further, according to this embodiment, since the collated bundle T is inserted between the newspapers P fed into the free space F as described above, the insertion position of the collated bundle T along the X direction can be stabilized. The insertion position in the X direction of the collated bundle T can be made constant in all the paper sheets K. For this reason, when a plurality of sets of paper sheets K are stacked in the rear-stage stacking and aligning mechanism 40, the end portions of the plurality of sets of paper sheets K can be aligned more beautifully.
さらに、本実施形態によると、フリー空間Fを通してフライング搬送した新聞Pの先端が、方向変換部60の突き当て壁62の突き当て面62aに衝突した後、逆方向に戻ることがないため、X方向に送り込まれる後続の新聞Pと干渉(衝突)してジャムを生じる不具合を防止することができる。 Furthermore, according to the present embodiment, the tip of the newspaper P flying and transported through the free space F does not return in the opposite direction after colliding with the butting surface 62 a of the butting wall 62 of the direction conversion unit 60. It is possible to prevent jamming due to interference (collision) with the subsequent newspaper P fed in the direction.
図8は、第2の実施形態に係る押えプレート82を含む方向変換部80の構成を示す概略図である。方向変換部80は、押えプレート82の構造が第1の実施形態の押えプレート64と異なる以外、上述した方向変換部60と略同じ構造を有する。よって、ここでは、第1の実施形態と同様に機能する構成要素には同一符号を付してその詳細な説明を省略する。 FIG. 8 is a schematic view showing the configuration of the direction conversion unit 80 including the pressing plate 82 according to the second embodiment. The direction changer 80 has substantially the same structure as the direction changer 60 described above except that the structure of the pressing plate 82 is different from that of the pressing plate 64 of the first embodiment. Therefore, the same reference numerals are given to constituent elements that function in the same manner as in the first embodiment, and the detailed description thereof will be omitted.
押えプレート82は、一端に回動軸71を備えた上流側傾斜板部84、上流側傾斜板部84の他端に連続した平板部74、および平板部74に連続した下流側傾斜板部76を有する。上流側傾斜板部84は、第1の実施形態の押えプレート64の上流側傾斜板部72より短く且つ傾斜角度が大きくされている。また、押えプレート82の回動軸71のY方向の両端は、固定フレーム61に垂設したブラケット86のスリット88に沿って上下方向(Z方向)に移動可能に支持されている。 The pressing plate 82 has an upstream inclined plate portion 84 provided with a rotation shaft 71 at one end, a flat plate portion 74 connected to the other end of the upstream inclined plate portion 84, and a downstream inclined plate portion 76 connected to the flat plate portion 74. Have. The upstream inclined plate portion 84 is shorter than the upstream inclined plate portion 72 of the pressing plate 64 of the first embodiment and the inclination angle thereof is increased. Further, both ends in the Y direction of the pivot shaft 71 of the pressing plate 82 are supported so as to be movable in the vertical direction (Z direction) along the slits 88 of the bracket 86 vertically provided on the fixed frame 61.
本実施形態では、上流側傾斜板部84の傾斜角度を第1の実施形態より大きくしたため、X方向に搬送される新聞Pの先端が上流側傾斜板部84に衝突した際の衝撃力が大きくなる。また、本実施形態では、上流側傾斜板部84を短くして押えプレート82を軽量化したため、新聞Pが衝突した際に押えプレート82が跳ね上がり易くなる。このため、本実施形態においては、第1の実施形態と比較して、新聞Pが通過する際に押えプレート82がより大きく振動する(あばれる)。 In this embodiment, since the inclination angle of the upstream inclined plate portion 84 is made larger than that of the first embodiment, the impact force when the tip of the newspaper P conveyed in the X direction collides with the upstream inclined plate portion 84 is large. Become. Further, in the present embodiment, since the upstream inclined plate portion 84 is shortened to reduce the weight of the pressing plate 82, the pressing plate 82 is likely to jump up when the newspaper P collides. For this reason, in the present embodiment, as compared with the first embodiment, the presser plate 82 vibrates more greatly (when the newspaper P passes), as compared to the first embodiment.
このため、本実施形態では、押えプレート82の回動軸71をスリット88に沿って上下に移動可能に支持することで、押えプレート82の振動を抑制するようにした。つまり、第2の実施形態の押えプレート82を用いると、装置構成を小型軽量化することができ、その上、フリー空間Fへ送り込まれた新聞Pの跳ね返りを確実に防止することができ、第1の実施形態と同様の効果を奏することができる。 For this reason, in the present embodiment, vibration of the pressing plate 82 is suppressed by supporting the pivot shaft 71 of the pressing plate 82 so as to be vertically movable along the slits 88. That is, when the pressing plate 82 of the second embodiment is used, the device configuration can be reduced in size and weight, and moreover, the bounce of the newspaper P sent into the free space F can be reliably prevented, The same effect as that of the first embodiment can be achieved.
