なる。2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional carrier for carrying printed matter such as newspapers, a belt conveyor which runs at substantially the same speed as the carrier is arranged below the carrier in parallel with the carrier and the carrier gripper is opened sequentially. The printed matter is dropped onto the conveyor to form a tile-like stack of the printed matter on the conveyor, and in this state, the printed matter is carried out to the next processing step such as a counter stacker or an inserter. However, when the weight of printed matter such as newspapers is lowered from the carrier onto the belt conveyor, the inertia of the printed matter moving at high speed and friction with the belt conveyor cause the belt conveyor to move closer to the carrier as much as possible. The posture of the printed matter on the conveyor is disturbed, and the distance between the printed matter stacked in a tile shape is greatly changed, which causes various inconveniences in the next processing step.

(Kaisho 64-81754, etc.). That is, the clamp 22 is provided below the carrier 21 having the gripper 20.
The conveyer 23 for unloading is arranged to face each other, and the lower end portion of the printed matter 24 which is gripped by the fixed claw 20a and the movable claw 20b of the gripper 20 and conveyed in the arrow direction is moved in the arrow direction via the slide guide 25. The printed matter 24 was stacked in a tile shape on the conveyor 23 at a constant pitch by inserting the movable piece 22 into the opening of the moving clamp 22 and timing the closing of the opening of the clamp 22 and the opening of the gripper 20. In this state, it is carried out to the next processing step.

In addition, since the clamp 22 is required, its structure becomes extremely complicated, and there is a drawback that the manufacturing cost cannot be reduced. Further, in order to eliminate the unloading mistake of the printed matter, it is necessary to strictly regulate the operation timing between the carrier 21 and the carry-out conveyor 23, which causes a problem that the operation management of the apparatus is remarkably troublesome. Furthermore, the conveyor 23 for transportation
Since the rear end of the printed matter 24 is held by the clamp 22 of the printed matter 24, the printed matter 24 is easily damaged and the clamp 22
If the printed matter 24 is clamped before the end of the printed matter 24 is completely inserted into the inner part of the sheet, there is a problem that the pitch is misaligned.

The printed matter 5 that has been conveyed up to the first has its trailing end portion (lower end portion) 5b arranged below the carrier B and travels in the same direction at the same speed as that of the carrier B for carrying out the crosspiece belt 6b.
Touch on. As shown in FIG. 1, the belt 6 with the crosspiece and the carrier gripper 2 are such that the rear end portion 5b of the printed matter 5 contacts the front side of the crosspiece 6a in the lower portion of the unloading mechanism 4. Since they are operated at a constant speed in a mutual positional relationship, the rear end portion 5b of each printed matter 5 advances in the direction of the arrow while sequentially contacting the front surface side of the crosspiece 6a.

Further, the central portion of the printed matter 5 is sucked onto the suction plate 7a by the decompression of the air box 7, thereby preventing the printed matter 5 from jumping up and the like, and the disturbance of the lateral posture is prevented by the printed matter posture correcting device 8. Will be fixed. Further, even if a slight slip occurs when the printed matter 5 falls, the relative movement of the printed matter 5 is stopped because the rear end portion 5b is engaged with the front surface side of the crosspiece 6a. As a result, the printed matter 5 is attached to the rear end portion 5 by the crosspiece 6a.
In the state where b is held, the tiles are piled up with a constant pitch Pb and conveyed in the arrow direction.

は上述の通り優れた実用的効用を奏するものである。According to the present invention, below the straight line portion of the carrier B, the belt 6 with crosspieces is provided which runs in the same direction as the carrier B at the same speed and while maintaining a predetermined mutual positional relationship. The distance between the crosspieces 6a of the belt 6 with crosspieces is regulated to be substantially the same as the pitch Pa of the grippers 2 of the carrier B. Therefore, the lower end portion 5b of the printed matter 5 gripped by the gripper 2 comes into contact with the lower belt 6 with a crosspiece and then contacts the front side of the crosspiece 6a, and the rear end 5b is held by the crosspiece 6a. Under this condition, the gripper 2 is opened, and the folded portion 5a of the gripper 2 is lowered downward by its own weight. As a result, on the belt 6 with crosspieces, the printed matter 5 having the intervals of the folding portions 5a substantially the same as the pitch Pa of the gripper 2 is obtained.
The stack of printed matter 5 is carried out while the rear end portion 5b is held by the crosspiece 6a without any posture disorder. Further, in the present invention, since the short air box 7 is arranged in parallel to the belt 6 with crosspieces, the lower surface side of the printed matter 5 that has dropped by its own weight due to the opening of the gripper 2 is sucked to the suction plate 7a side,
The printed matter 5 is prevented from jumping up at the time of descending, and the lateral position of the printed matter 5 is corrected by the posture correcting device 8 so that the printed matter 5 is regularly arranged on the carry-out conveyor C.
Thereby, the disturbance of the posture of the printed matter 5 is more effectively prevented. Further, in the present invention, since the carry-out conveyor C is formed of the belt 6 with crosspieces and the extremely short air box 7, the structure thereof is remarkably simplified, and the manufacturing cost of the carrier unloading and carrying-out apparatus A is significantly reduced. Is possible. The present invention has excellent practical utility as described above.
