Definitions

  • the invention relates to a printing press temperature control system according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a printing press temperature control system is over EP 0 602 312 A1. It is especially useful for the Fountain solution offset printing and dry offset printing used. This can be sheet printing (printing of individual sheets of paper) or roll printing (printing of paper webs).
  • the sheet-fed offset printing machines are much smaller than the web offset presses stand in a pressroom and generate heat which they deliver to the pressroom.
  • the chiller is working on the principle of alternate compression and Expansion of a refrigerant in one Refrigerant circuit:
  • the refrigerant indicates its coldness the cold water or another coolant.
  • the refrigeration generator releases the heat extracted from the cold water the surrounding area.
  • the chiller hereinafter the chiller called, housed in the press room, where the Printing press is housed, however, at a distance of the printing press so that they can stand out from them do not heat each other.
  • the object of the invention is to solve a problem unwanted heating of the Sheet printing machine, in particular Sheet offset printing machine by the heat given off by the refrigeration generator, and a unwanted heating of the refrigeration system by reduce heat radiated from the printing press, and train the tempering system at the same time so that it takes up less space in the pressroom and still is quickly and easily accessible for maintenance work or for an exchange of a device unit or for Refill fountain solution or another Liquid.
  • the invention provides the following advantages in particular: The cooling generator requires less cooling capacity, in Pressroom becomes space for other purposes, and that Temperature control system is easily accessible.
  • the printing press temperature control system shown schematically in Fig. 1 2 is used to control the temperature of at least one press means of at least a printing unit 4 of a sheet-fed printing machine 6, especially one according to the offset printing process working sheet printing machine for printing on Sheets of paper.
  • the printing machine means can be air 8 which by a blower 10 by a first Heat exchanger 12 driven through and on the Shell surface of a cylinder 13 to be cooled Printing machine 6 is blown.
  • the cylinder 13 can for example a forme cylinder or plate cylinder Transfer cylinder such as a Blanket cylinder, or an impression cylinder.
  • the Temperature control system 2 and the printing press 6 are in a press room 14 having walls 15 and 16.
  • a Refrigerator 20 is outside the pressroom 14 arranged and cools coolant one through it passed coolant circuit 22.
  • the Coolant circuit 22 extends through the a wall 15 in the press room 14 and has one the delivery branch 24 and the printing branch 14 one also passed through the press room 14 Return branch 26 on.
  • the flow directions in Temperature control system 2 are indicated by arrows.
  • Of the first heat exchanger 12 is at one end to the Lead branch 24 and with another end to the Return branch 26 connected in terms of flow and is through which the coolant flows.
  • the first Form heat exchanger 12 and its associated fan 10 one to be cooled over the entire length of the Cylinder 13 extending blowing air cooling device, such as it is known for example from EP 0 602 312 A1.
  • the printing unit 4 contains, for example, a forme cylinder or plate cylinder 28, a blanket cylinder 29 and an impression cylinder 30.
  • a schematic shown dampening unit 32 transmits fountain solution a fountain solution 34 on the locations on the circumference of the Plate cylinder 28, which do not accept printing ink allowed to.
  • a schematically illustrated inking unit 36 transfers ink from a not shown Ink source on the ink-accepting Places on the circumference of the plate cylinder 28.
  • Figure 1 shows two device units 40 and 42, which immediately next to or below or into the printing press 6 can be placed within the printing room 14.
  • Die one or first device unit 40 contains a second one Heat exchanger 44, a reservoir 46 for Fountain water 47, a pump 48 and a valve 50.
  • the second heat exchanger 44 includes a first Heat exchanger strand 52, which over two Pipe connections 54 and 55 of the one unit 40 in the flow branch 24 of the coolant circuit 22 is used interchangeably so that it is from the Coolant of the coolant circuit 22 is flowed through.
  • the second heat exchanger 44 contains also a second heat exchanger branch 58, which within the second heat exchanger 44 with the first Heat exchanger strand 52 is in heat exchange and over a heat exchanger feed line 60, in which the first pump 48 is located, and via a Heat exchanger return line 62 each with the Reservoir 46 is fluidly connected and with together a first temperature-controlled circuit 64 forms.
  • a first temperature-controlled circuit 64 forms on a downstream of the first pump 48 located branch from the supply line 60.
  • one Supply line 66 which contains the valve 50, which via a third pipe connection 67 one Device unit 40 with one in the fountain water tank 34 leading line section 68 connected in terms of flow is.
  • a drain line 70 of an overflow of Dampening water pan 34 is via a fourth pipe connection 72 of one device unit 40 to a second Return line 74 connected in terms of flow, which opens into the reservoir 46.
  • a second Return line 74 connected in terms of flow, which opens into the reservoir 46.
  • the flow cross section of the valve 50 can be changed to more or less fountain solution to circulate in the second circuit 76.
  • the Storage container 46 is designed such that it without Disassembly of the first pump 48 and the second Heat exchanger 44 from one device unit 40 can be removed or inserted.
  • the other or second interchangeable device unit 42 is on, under or in the printing press 6, and in designed essentially the same as one or the first Device unit 40 and is therefore the same Provide reference numbers.
  • unit 42 is not fountain solution 47 but cooling water 87, which by a Ink roller 88 is passed to it cool.
  • the first heat exchanger strand 52 of the Heat exchanger 44 in the second device unit 42 is in the Lead branch 24 of the coolant circuit 22 in Row and downstream of the first heat exchanger strand 52 of the heat exchanger 44 of the first device unit 40 in this way arranged that he after the heat exchanger 44 of the first Unit 40 of the coolant Coolant circuit 22 is flowed through.
  • the coolant of the coolant circuit 22 some heat from the fountain solution 47 of the first Unit 40 added before the cooling water 87th of the second device unit 42 cools. This will takes into account that the ink roller 88 be warmer must as the plate cylinder 28th
  • a pump 90 Upstream of the heat exchanger 44 of the two Device units 40 and 42 are in the lead branch 24 of the coolant circuit 22, a pump 90, which the coolant through the Coolant circuit 22 promotes.
