Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sheet feeder for cyclical conveyance of arches, with a leading edge separator that is two at a distance has two pairs of suction cups arranged side by side, the Double suction cups driven by gears on a closed movement Run the path in the conveying direction of the sheets and back and the double suction cups of a pair of double suction cups in two work cycles having a movement cycle offset by one work cycle in succession get into the area of the stack leading edge, each Double suction cup has a suction surface on its top and bottom and the lower suction surface of a double suction cup of a pair of double suction cups the top sheet of a sheet stack is detected and raised and in the raised state to the upper suction surface of the arranged next to it other double suction cups of this pair of double suction cups for further transport passes to a transport device up to a sheet transfer and the movement cycles of the pair of suction cups are approximately the same.
  • Such known sheet feeders have the advantage that they are very high working speeds with high positional accuracy of the funded Arch can be achieved.
  • the position accuracy of the funded Bow but from the positional accuracy of the leading edge of the top Arc of the stack of sheets or the positional accuracy of the leading edge of the stack dependent on the sheet stack. Switch these leading edges in the sheet conveying direction and / or offset obliquely from one to the sheet conveying direction right-angled target position, the sheets are also passed on to Transport device with this deviation from the target position.
  • the object of the invention is therefore a sheet feeder of the type mentioned Art and to create a process by which the funded Transfer the sheet to the transport device in the correct position become.
  • This object is achieved in that the movement cycle the double suction cup of at least one pair of double suction cups in the area of the sheet transfer to the transport device a phase difference leading and / or lagging the movement cycle the double suction cup of the other pair of suction cups is adjustable is.
  • the phase difference can occur during the entire movement cycle be effective or only in the area of the sheet transfer to the Transport means.
  • the motion cycle can either be by phase difference steps or by an infinitely adjustable phase difference can be set in advance and / or lag his.
  • the movement cycle can be done by the operator the sheet feeder manually adjustable and / or lagging in which this e.g. actuated an adjusting device by means of a button.
  • This is e.g. advantageous if the entire stack of sheets is even Inclined so that only for the entire stack of sheets a single adjustment is required.
  • Phase adjustment gear can be connected upstream.
  • the gears are advantageously one or both pairs of double suction cups driven by a common drive, so that the structure of the sheet feeder simply designed and the required space can be kept low.
  • each transmission of a pair of double suction cups can be driven by its own individual drive and one or both individual drives can be adjusted in advance and / or lag.
  • the deviation of the stack leading edge or the leading edge of a sheet conveyed by the sheet feeder from a nominal position perpendicular to the sheet conveying direction can be detected by a sensor system and a corresponding signal for actuating a forward and forward / or lag of the movement cycle of one or both pairs of double suction cups can be generated.
  • phase adjustment mechanism or one or both of the signals Individual drives can be controlled.
  • the object of the invention is further achieved in that the Extension of the closed path of at least one pair of suction cups at its front and / or rear end in the conveying direction in and / or extendable against the conveying direction of the sheets and / or can be shortened.
  • the extension of the closed path can either be gradual or but also be continuously adjustable and / or shortenable.
  • An extension that can be manually extended and / or shortened The closed path is beneficial when the entire stack of sheets has a uniform inclined position, so that for the entire stack of sheets only one adjustment is required.
  • extension can be extended automatically and / or can be shortened.
  • An easy way to adjust the extent of the closed Track is that the gearbox of one or more pairs of double suction cups one or more extending approximately in the conveying direction Has swing, of which at least one each on a double suction cup a pair of suction cups is articulated and the wings that are articulated on the double suction cups of this pair of double suction cups, in
  • the longitudinal extension can be lengthened and / or shortened or is adjustable whose position is adjustable in or against the direction of conveyance.
  • the adjustable rockers can easily be a spindle drive or have a piezo actuator through which the longitudinal extension the swing arm is adjustable.
  • Another advantageous training is that the position of the Swivel axis at the opposite end of the double suction cup Swing arm is adjustable in or against the conveying direction.
  • a sheet conveyed by the sheet feeder from one to the sheet conveying direction rectangular target position can be detected by a sensor system and a corresponding one Signal to control an extension and / or shortening the extension of the closed path of at least one pair of suction cups be generated.
  • Another method of feeding and handing over sheets correctly Location to a transport device by a sheet feeder in that the deviation of the stack leading edge or the leading edge a sheet conveyed by the sheet feeder to one to the sheet conveying direction rectangular target position is recorded and accordingly the Extension of the closed path of at least one pair of suction cups at its front and / or rear end in the conveying direction in and / or against the conveying direction of the sheets during a movement cycle can be extended and / or shortened.
  • the sheet feeders shown in the figures have a front edge separator, with which the top sheet 1 of a sheet stack 2 detected and fed to a transport device 3 for further transport becomes.
  • the transport device is a conveyor table with two at a distance Endless suction belts arranged in relation to each other 4, only the takeover-side deflection roller 5 being shown.
  • the transport device is an overhead gripper.
  • the sheet leading edge separators have two transversely to the sheet conveying direction 6 at a distance next to each other over the front edge 8 of the stack of sheets 2 arranged pairs of suction cups 7, 7 ', the double suction cups 9, 9 ', 9 ", 9'” through gear 10, 10 ', 10 "10"', in particular coupling gear are drivable.
  • the double suction cups 9, 9 ', 9 ", 9'” perform movements in a movement cycle on a closed path 11 in the sheet conveying direction 6 and back out.
  • the double suction cups 9, 9 ', or 9 ", 9 '" of a pair of double suction cups 7 or 7' in two work cycles having a movement cycle offset by one work cycle in succession in the area of the stack leading edge 8.
  • Each double suction device 9, 9 ', 9 “, 9”' has a lower suction surface 12 on it Bottom and an upper suction surface 13 on its top.
  • the lower suction surfaces 12 which are in their lower locking position (FIG. 3 a or 5 c) double suction cups 9, 9 "located above the stack leading edge 8 capture the top sheet 1 of the sheet stack 2, lift it (figure 3 b) up to their upper locking position ( Figure 3 c or 5 a).
  • the double suction cups 9, 9 "then move in again along the path 11 the lower rest position.
  • Double suction cups 9, 9 '9 “, 9”' capture the position of the front edge 8 of the stack and supply appropriate signals to control electronics, not shown. By comparing these signals with data of a given direction of sheet conveyance 6 rectangular target positions are possible distance and / or Angular deviations of the stack leading edge 8 in the areas of the two pairs of double suction cups 7, 7 'and corresponding correction signals generated.
  • the correction signals are used in the exemplary embodiment in FIGS to 3 c, not shown, upstream of the gearboxes of the double suction pairs 7, 7 ' Phase adjustment gear controlled so that accordingly a detected leading or lagging position of the leading edge of the stack 8 a lag or lead by a corresponding phase difference the movement cycle of the respective double suction device 9, 9 ', 9 "or 9"' takes place. Oblique positions of the leading edge 8 of the stack thus lead to a front or Lagging of the double suction device 9 with respect to the double suction device 9 "or of the double suction device 9 'compared to the double suction device 9 "', as in the figures 1, 3 b and 3 d can be seen.
  • the pair of double suction cups has 7 opposite the pair of double suction cups 7 'have a phase difference in their movement cycle, the opposite of the measured deviation of the arc from the measured inclined position of the arch and thus compensates for it.
  • the phase difference is the double suction cup 9 and 9 "and 9 'and 9" against the detected deviation in the direction of sheet conveyance.
  • the sheet is then handed over to the Transport device 3 with a leading edge of the sheet, which is rectangular to the sheet conveying direction 6 and without deviation in the sheet conveying direction is aligned from the target position.
  • the basic movement is up to the adjustability of the Embodiment of Figures 4 to 5 c equal to that of the embodiment of Figures 1 to 3 c.
  • double suction cups 9, of which one is shown, driven by gears 10, which is a four-bar link have two approximately parallel to each other, approximately in the conveying direction 6 extending wings 16 and 17.
  • the wings 16 and 17 are spaced apart articulated one above the other on the double suction device 9.
  • the other ends are designed as threaded spindles and protrude through them with their threaded part spindle drive housing 18 and 19.
  • This Spindle drive housings 18 and 19 are at right angles to their longitudinal axis extending pivot axes pivotable in bearings 20 and 21 stored.
  • the Swing 16 and 17 By drives in the spindle drive housings 18 and 19, the Swing 16 and 17 the distance between their articulation points on the Double suction cup 9 and the bearings 20 and 21 enlarging or reducing can be set. By a different degree of adjustment also an adjustment of the inclination of the suction surfaces 12 and 13 of the double suction cup 9 can be reached.
  • a pivot rod extending against the rocker 17 22 arranged, at the free end of a roller 23 mounted freely rotatable is that on the radially circumferential surface of a rotatably drivable Cam 24 is in plant.
