Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for folding a number of flat objects, which in particular individually follow each other, with the help of a device according to the Schwertfalztex and a device for controlling a drive of a folding blade for folding a number of flat objects, which in particular individually to each other consequences.
  • a working according to the Schwertfalztex folding unit has two opposite in operation rotating, parallel with their axes of rotation folding rollers and a parallel to the Falzwalzenspalt arranged folding blade on.
  • the folding sword is perpendicular in direction movable to the plane defined by the folding roller axes, the folding blade and the Falzwzwaltspalt lie in a plane which defined by the Falzwalzenachsen Plane at right angles intersects.
  • the folding sword movement perpendicular to the plane of the flat object the flat object between the two folding rollers are beaten into the folding roller gap.
  • the vertical, typically one-dimensional sword movement can vary will be realized.
  • a drive can be used, which directly or indirectly is tapped from the main shaft of the folding machine.
  • the Drive system can in various ways the necessary movement of the Execute folding blade:
  • the sword movement can be cam-controlled or but be realized by means of a sliding-crank mechanism.
  • the Drive with constant drive speed which is proportional to the Machine speed increases when transmitted directly from the drive shaft.
  • there are different folding ratios for different ones Speeds there are different folding ratios for different ones Speeds.
  • a major disadvantage of such drive systems is that with mechanical drive elements only a general, for all flat objects one Production-free uniform movement or speed profile of the Folding sword is realized. At the same time the amplitude, in other words the Position of the dead points of the movement clearly defined.
  • a synchronization of the sword movement on the passage of the flat objects can clock bound, ie in forced operation with the clock frequency of the folding machine, or unblocked, in other words event-driven.
  • DE 33 25 139 discloses how a folding blade control such is carried out that the flat object at the time in the Folding roller pair is hammered when its leading edge stops in the folder has reached.
  • a detector element or a sensor is at one of the length of the planar Object appropriate distance set to the stop in the folder.
  • EP 0 522 408 A1 discloses a folding machine which at least has a blade folder and a feeder and which is characterized by that the drive of the folding machine a single drive for the blade folder and the Having investors, which coordinates by means of a programmable control device become.
