Definitions

  • a "saddle-stapled booklet” is a number of printed sheets, for example of A4 size paper, which are folded in half as a group, to A5 size, and then stapled along the fold, to form the saddle-stapled booklet.
  • the known machines are either large and expensive, or involve handling of paper between several devices.
  • a machine for producing saddle-stapled booklets comprises a tray for forming a group of sheets; a folder blade or saddle for engaging and moving the group of sheets between fold-forming members for folding the group of sheets and for pushing the folded group of sheets at the fold against a stapling device for insertion of staples through the folded sheets; and means for ejecting the folded and stapled booklet.
  • the tray is horizontal and includes devices for registering sheets to form the group of sheets.
  • the fold-forming members preferably comprise a pair of parallel and horizontal rollers, spaced a small distance apart, so that the sheets are pushed by the folder blade between the rollers to fold the group of sheets centrally.
  • the folder blade or saddle is driven upwardly in a single vertical plane and in a continuous movement to fold the group of sheets and then to push it against the stapling device.
  • the latter preferably comprises a number of staplers, the number of staplers corresponding to the number of staples required to be inserted in the group of sheets.
  • a method for producing saddle-stapled booklets comprises the steps of:- forming a group of sheets; moving the formed group of sheets to a position between a folder blade on the one hand and a stapling device on the other; and causing the blade to engage and move the group of sheets in a continuous movement and in a single plane firstly between fold-forming members so as to form a group of sheets folded along a fold line, and secondly against the stapling device for insertion of staples through the sheets at the fold line to form a booklet.
  • two staplers 1,1 each with a magazine of known type and containing a supply of staples, are parallel, spaced apart, and stationary.
  • a folder saddle or blade 4 mounted for up and down movement by pins 4A,4A slidable in vertical bores in frame pillars 4B,4B.
  • a lower part 4C of the blade 4 has a slot 4D in which is received a crank pin 5A on a crank arm 5 which is mounted on and rotatable by a shaft 5B.
  • An electric motor 8 drives the shaft 5B by way of a gearbox 9, shaft 9A, belt 10, shaft 6A, and a magnetic clutch 6.
  • the electric motor also drives a pair of crease-forming and booklet ejecting rollers 3,3, by way of the gear box 9, shaft 9B, belt 10A, idler pulley 11, and belt 10B.
  • a stacking and aligning tray is not shown, but is a horizontal tray disposed at a level (Fig. 2) such that a group of sheets, stacked and aligned on the tray, will be level with the gap between the top of the folder blade 4 and the rollers 2, and will be moved horizontally from the tray to be engaged by the top surface of the blade 4.
  • a group of for example 15 to 17 printed A4 sheets are placed in the tray, which is constructed so as to register the group of sheets accurately. Then the horizontally lying group of registered sheets is moved horizontally and to the right (Fig. 2) centrally above the blade 4 into the space between the blade 4 and the rollers 2,2. This space is seen in Fig. 1 below the rollers 2,2 and above the upper edge of the folder blade 4 which in Fig. 1 is seen between the booklet creasing and ejecting rollers 3,3.
  • the folder blade 4 As soon as the group of sheets is in position above the folder blade 4, the latter is driven upwardly and carries the group of sheets upwardly in a vertical plane into the gap between the rollers 2,2, so that the combined action of the blade and rollers folds the group of sheets along a central fold line to form the booklet.
  • the blade 4 acts not only as a folder bar, but as a saddle or anvil and in its upper edge has two spaced staple-receiving recesses lA,lA, Fig. 2.
  • the upward motion of the blade 4 continues, so driving the fold of the booklet against two staples, one of which projects from each stapler 1.
  • the staples are driven through the thicknesses of folded paper, and are bent over by the two recesses in the top edge of the blade 4.
  • the folder blade drives the group of . sheets upwardly in a single continuous motion in a vertical plane. Firstly it causes the group of sheets to be folded by the rollers 2,2, and secondly it drives the folded group of sheets against the staplers 1,1.
  • the folder blade thus forms an anvil against which the staples are bent.
