Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a rotary printing press with rubber-rubber printing units arranged essentially vertically one above the other.
  • the height of the printing tower which is kept low by this H construction, has a disadvantageous effect on the accessibility of the components of the printing tower, in particular the cylinders and rollers. Only a low maintenance tunnel remains between the H-pressure units arranged one above the other, which can only be walked on by the operating personnel in a stooped posture. The same applies particularly to the accessibility of the bottom and top printing units of such a printing tower.
  • a printing cylinder and its impression cylinder can be pivoted away from one another in such a way that an accessible space is formed between the cylinders of such a printing unit, namely the two rubber cylinders, which an operator can comfortably walk on, for example for the purpose of a roller exchange.
  • At least every second one of the rubber-rubber printing units arranged one above the other has rubber cylinders which can be pivoted away from one another.
  • the space created after the two rubber cylinders have been swiveled enables easy access.
  • a particularly convenient access to all printing units of a printing tower is created by the fact that the rubber cylinders of all printing units of a printing tower can be pivoted away.
  • the rubber-to-rubber printing units of a printing tower are either all arranged as "" -shaped or "V" -shaped cylinder bridges.
  • a further advantage lies in the fact that the ink and the dampening solution for each printing unit are conveyed in the same direction, either counter to or with the force of gravity, to the respective blanket cylinder. This improves the uniformity of the color structure of the printing units with one another.
  • FIG. 1 shows a printing tower 20 of a rotary printing press, which has four identical printing units 11, 12, 13 and 14 arranged one above the other.
  • Each of these printing units 11 - 14 comprises a pair of printing and impression cylinders, namely blanket cylinders 2 and 4, their respective associated plate cylinders 3 and 5 and the plate cylinders 3 and 5 respectively subordinate inking and dampening units 6 and 7, of which only two are illustrated are shown.
  • the rubber cylinders 2 and 4 of the four printing units 11-14 arranged one above the other can be pivoted away from one another. Representative of all printing units, only the rubber cylinders 2 and 4 of the lowermost printing unit 11 are shown in their pivoted-down position.
  • the two blanket cylinders 2 and 4 are each about the axes of rotation of their assigned plate cylinders 3 and 5 pivoted from one another into the positions designated by 2 'and 4' in FIG. 1 approximately vertically above their respective plate cylinders 3 and 4.
  • the space 23 is indicated in FIG. 1 as a rectangle and extends from the bottom 21 of the printing tower 20 to the second printing unit 12 arranged above the lowermost printing unit 11. Its width corresponds approximately to the clear distance between the two plate cylinders 3 and 5.
  • the now positions or rooms available overall for maintenance and adjustment work are also indicated in FIG. 1.
  • the personnel have access to the printing units from the outside, for example standing on the floor 21 or a vertically movable maintenance platform 31 of the printing tower 20.
  • the intermediate space 23 formed according to the invention is now available with the same other freedom of movement.
  • the cylinders and rollers of the printing units 11 - 14 forming the printing tower 20 all form "A" or "N" -shaped cylinder bridges.
  • the largest possible, namely the highest possible, space 23 is formed by this uniform alignment of the cylinders and rollers, and on the other hand, the ink and dampening solution flow to all rubber cylinders 2 and 4 always takes place in the same direction.
  • both advantages could also be achieved with printing units 11-14, which form "V" -shaped cylinder bridges. In this case, the ink transport would take place with the support of gravity instead of against it, as in the exemplary embodiment.
  • FIG. 1 It can be seen from FIG. 1 that it is sufficient to form a space 23 which is easy to walk on if only every second one of the printing units 11-14, preferably the lowermost printing unit 11 and the next but one printing unit 13, has swiveling rubber cylinders 2 and 4.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 show a pressure tower 20 with pivotable rubber cylinders 2 and 4 (FIG. 2) and a pressure tower 20 according to the prior art (FIG. 3) with four pressure units arranged one above the other, which are arranged to form H-shaped cylinder bridges , shown.
  • Eight single-color printing units are arranged in both printing towers 20, two printing units each forming a rubber-rubber printing unit.
  • the cylinders and rollers of the printing tower 20 according to FIG. 2 are more easily accessible for maintenance and adjustment work.
  • Only very low maintenance tunnels T remain free under and above the printing units according to FIG. 3 arranged in a conventional H-shape.
  • These conventional maintenance tunnels T can be walked on horizontally or at most in a bent posture, which makes maintenance and adjustment work considerably more difficult. With the printing material web B drawn in, such work is impossible because of the printing material web crossing the maintenance tunnel T.
  • the entire space 23 available by pivoting the rubber cylinders 2 and 4 can be kept almost entirely free.
  • the drawn-in printing material web B is close to one side of the space 23, i.e. at a short distance from one of the plate cylinders 4 or 5 and the pivoted rubber cylinder 2 or 3.
  • the web deflection rollers are to be arranged in the region of the intermediate space 23 formed in this way on one of the sides of this intermediate space 23, as can be seen in FIG. 4 using the example of two times 1 + 1 color production per double printing unit.
  • the two printing towers 20, in accordance with FIGS. 2 and 3, are again placed next to one another for comparison purposes.
  • the printing towers 20 are each configured for two times 1 + 1 color production per double printing unit.
  • the printing units of the conventional printing tower according to FIG. 5 which are arranged in the form of H-shaped cylinder bridges, each is conceivable Guidance of the printing material webs B, - B, the accessibility of at least one of the two printing units, each forming a printing unit, is ensured only via the very uncomfortable low maintenance tunnel T.
  • the lower printing units 11 and 13 of the two H-shaped cylinder bridges can only be worked from the outside in a stooped posture.
  • each printing unit The free passage to the left and right of each printing unit is greatly reduced by the printing material web that runs in and out at the side.
  • the top pair of rubber cylinders of each H-cylinder bridge are not accessible when the web is retracted, for example for changing plates or cleaning a rubber blanket.
  • a corresponding effort is to be made by providing appropriate web shifting means, as indicated at 51 and 52, or other cylinder release devices.
  • the printing material web is guided with the rubber cylinders 2 and 4 pivoted away as close as possible to one of the pivoted rubber cylinders, ie close to the sides of the intermediate space 23.
  • this is achieved by correspondingly arranging the web deflection rollers before the web entry and are arranged behind the web outlet in or out of the printing units, the rubber cylinders 2 and 4 of which form the intermediate space 23 between them in the pivoted-down position 2 'and 4'.
  • the two web deflection rollers 41 and 42 are indicated in FIG.
