Definitions

  • the invention relates to a printing machine, in particular a sheetfed offset printing press, in which a sheet to be processed is guided by sheet guiding elements and means for influencing the sheet travel in its position, wherein a sheet monitoring device is connected to a control means for influencing the sheet travel controlling evaluation.
  • a sheet feeder for sheet printers in which the sheets lying in a stack are separated by targeted supply of air flow.
  • Photoelectric sensors are arranged laterally in the height of the floating sheets. The light rays emitted by the sensors are reflected by the side surfaces of the separated sheets, the reflected light also being detected by the sensors. From the brightness differences of the reflected light, the singling and the parallelism of the isolated arcs is checked. The parallelism of the arc is then concluded when the output of both sensors corresponding to the amount of reflected light is the same.
  • the sheet travel can be changed by a variety of influences.
  • the invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a printing machine, in which an optimal guidance of the printing material is ensured by the printing press, even in an automated operation.
  • the object is achieved in that the optically formed sheet travel monitoring device detects the actual spatial position of the sheet on a sheet guiding element and the evaluation compares the actual spatial position of the sheet using a pattern recognition with an ideal spatial position and in evaluation of this comparison at least one device for Influencing the sheet run controls.
  • the advantage of the invention is that the sheet can be kept on an ideal conveyor line during the entire processing process within the printing press, since deviations from the ideal case can be detected and corrected immediately.
  • This automatic, optimized sheet guiding is possible for all bedrudcstoffe.
  • the generation of the spatial representation gives a comprehensive information of the sheet travel. Due to pattern recognition, a target - actual - value comparison of the entire sheet in many individual points is possible.
  • the sheet travel monitoring device for detecting the spatial position of the sheet of two image recording units is formed, of which the first image pickup unit is a horizontal image of the Bogens and the second image pickup unit generates a vertical image of the sheet, the two image acquisition units are connected to evaluate their approximately simultaneously recorded actual images with an image evaluation unit, which creates a spatial representation of the actual sheet travel from these figures and with the applied in a storage unit compares ideal sheet runs.
  • the optimum position of the sheet run at different, each differentiated bow paths requiring stations is determined and adjustable.
  • the comparison of the actual with the ideal for this position spatial sheet run ensures trouble-free operation of the production process.
  • Due to the use of optical monitoring devices can be dispensed with a determination of the paper-specific parameters such as paper weight or format or distribution of the color on each sheet and a presetting of the elements for influencing the sheet run before the start of the printing process.
  • the image recording unit is a video camera, wherein the image evaluation unit digitizes the images determined by the video camera and compares them with a digitized, ideal spatial sheet travel stored in the storage unit.
  • Video cameras can be used particularly well as image recording units, since their electronically coded images can be well amplified, can be transported arbitrarily via suitable cables and can be processed and displayed very flexibly.
  • the electronically encoded images produced by the video camera can be easily processed using known methods, such as the triangulation principle. If adequate computing power is available, real-time image processing is possible, ie image processing does not result in a delay in the presentation of the image.
  • the spatial image of the actual sheet travel generated by the image recording unit can be fed to a display device, where, in addition to the actual spatial image of the sheet travel, the associated ideal spatial sheet travel can be displayed simultaneously.
  • a display device where, in addition to the actual spatial image of the sheet travel, the associated ideal spatial sheet travel can be displayed simultaneously.
  • the display device does not have to be permanently linked to a particular image acquisition unit. Rather, it is conceivable to display successively pictures of different recording locations on a display device, wherein the switching in an automatic rhythm, manually selectable or situation-dependent, for example. can be done with a serious difference between actual and ideal sheet travel. Apparent resources can be concentrated in the system according to the invention on the optical recording and Wedergabesysteme, which benefits the image quality.
  • the image evaluation unit is self-learning to determine the ideal spatial arc run.
  • the ideal spatial sheet travel is continuously determined during the printing process from the spatial representations of several actual sheet runs determined by the image evaluation unit.
  • the image evaluation unit can determine the ideal spatial sheet travel as a function of at least one machine parameter such as machine speed and temperature and / or a parameter of the printing material such as paper, color and moisture.
  • the image evaluation unit is coupled to a machine control device which is connected to sensors for monitoring the functional state of the printing press and actuating elements of the individual stations of the printing press.
  • the image evaluation unit outputs signals to the machine control device for adjusting the means of sheet travel as a function of the comparison. A direct additional access of the image evaluation unit to the fan or suction elements of the printing press is therefore not necessary.
  • the machine control device is preferably designed for the independent control of a plurality of devices for influencing the sheet travel, whereby the sheet travel can be set very accurately in selected positions.
  • the machine control device changes a volume flow of the devices designed as blowing or suction air devices for influencing the sheet travel.
  • FIG. 1 shows a printing machine 1 which consists of a feeder 2, a plurality of subunits 3 to 6 designed as printing units and a delivery arm 7.
  • the path of the printing material in the configuration shown in Figure 1 takes place in the direction of the arrow from right to left.
  • Each printing unit 3 to 6 has an identical structure. For the basic understanding of the sheet guide in a printing press this will only be explained at an offset printing unit.
  • a not shown stack of loose sheets is inserted in the feeder 2.
  • the sheets are separated and moved in the direction of the first offset printing unit 3.
  • the incoming separated sheet is taken over by a first transfer cylinder 8, which forwards the sheet to an impression cylinder 9.
  • the sheet is fed to the blanket cylinder 10 for printing, wherein the blanket cylinder 10 is colored by a plate cylinder 11.
  • the sheet is transported via a further transfer cylinder 12 to the next printing unit 4.
  • the desired bowing is shown schematically by arrows.
  • the sheet is guided only in places by mechanical contact with the cylinders 8, 9, 10 and 12. There are also areas where the sheet is transported without contact and directed by individual blowers mounted in an air box 13 by setting defined air currents in the desired direction.
  • a fan box 13 is arranged under the transfer cylinders 12 of the individual printing units 3 to 6. By included in the fan box 13 fan 14 of the arc is set in its entire extent in its position.
  • a monitoring of the sheet travel of the sheet 15 of the Eogenoffsetdruckmaschine 1 is shown on a fan box 13.
  • a video camera 16 for controlling the sheet travel of the entire sheet 15 in the horizontal direction and a video camera 17 for detecting the sheet travel of the entire sheet 15 in the vertical direction are connected to an evaluation device 18, which is designed to evaluate images of the video cameras 16,17.
  • the evaluation device 18 contains an image evaluation unit 19. Depending on the output signals of the image evaluation unit 19, the fans 14 in the fan box 13 are individually controlled by the evaluation unit 18 to change the respective air flow, thus changing the position of the sheet 15 in the desired manner.
  • the evaluation unit 18 is also connected to a control station 21 of the sheet-fed offset printing machine 1, which has a monitor 22 and an operating device 23.
  • the evaluation unit 18 comprises an image evaluation unit 19 and a machine control device 25.
  • the image evaluation unit 19 is supplied with the images recorded by the video cameras 16, 17. Via an interface 24, the image evaluation device 19 is connected to the machine control device 25.
  • This machine control device 25 has a computing unit 26 which controls the printing process by evaluating signals supplied by sensors and generating control signals for actuating elements. For reasons of clarity, only one sensor for determining the machine angle 20 of the offset printing unit 3 and two fans 14 in the fan box 13 are shown here, which are connected to the machine-calculating unit 26 via an interface 27.
  • FIG. 4 shows the basic structure of the image evaluation unit 19.
  • the video cameras 16, 17 each have an optoelectronic CCD receiver unit, not shown in detail, which supplies an image grid with discrete pixels by means of a gray scale analysis.
  • These Video information is digitized in a video interface 28 by means of an A / D converter and stored in an image memory 29 and processed in an image processing unit 30 with an arithmetic logic unit in real time.
  • a D / A converter containing another video interface 31 the digital information is converted back into an analog video signal and displayed on the monitor 22 of the control station 21 of the printing machine 1.
  • the ideal spatial sheet travel of a sheet 15 is stored for selected machine angles of the offset printing unit 3.
  • the stored ideal sheet travel can either be determined mathematically by the image processing unit 30 for the respective desired machine angle or determined empirically from the evaluation of many actual sheet runs.
  • the spatial processing unit 30 From the digitized images recorded by the video cameras 16 and 17, the spatial processing unit 30 generates a spatial image of the sheet 15 by means of the triangulation principle.
  • the image processing unit 30 compares the spatial pattern of the actual sheet travel thus generated at the machine angle with an ideal spatial sheet travel stored digitally in the image memory 29 at this machine angle.
  • the image evaluation unit 19 sends a corresponding signal to the machine control device 25.
  • the arithmetic unit 26 evaluates the signals supplied by the image evaluation unit 19 and generates a corresponding control signal for activating the fans 14 Correct sheet travel with regard to the desired bowing by targeted air supply.
  • the fans 14 are thereby controlled separately from the evaluation unit, whereby a local correction of the position of the sheet 15 is possible.
  • the printer can track the sheet travel over a sheet guide path. Preferably, various locations of the entire sheet-fed offset printing machine can be monitored simultaneously.
