Definitions

  • the invention relates to a suction surface of a sheet transport table or a printing cylinder of a sheet-processing machine, which has suction openings for fixing the sheets.
  • EP 0990518 B1 is a suction surface of a printing cylinder of a sheet-processing machine known, which has circumferentially distributed suction openings, which are controlled by a valve block.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a suction surface which is continuously adaptable to different sheet formats.
  • the suction surface may be the surface of a table or a cylinder.
  • Such a printing cylinder is also referred to as Jettingzylinder.
  • z. B at least two suction openings having sheets or foils, in a cylinder curved sheets or foils, provided, which have a different Saugö Stammsver republic and wherein one of the sheets is fixed and the other or the other two are arranged mutually displaceable, in particular one with a circumferential grid rotatable in the circumferential direction and the second is arranged displaceably with a side grid in the side direction.
  • the suction surface has a suction openings exhibiting, fixedly arranged baffle plate and a slide plate arranged displaceably with this with a so-called combination raster, which is arranged both in the circumferential direction and laterally displaceable.
  • a curved plate having suction openings is provided, which is rotatable in the circumferential direction and displaceable in the lateral direction.
  • the number of effective suction openings in the circumferential direction and in the axial direction can be adapted to a respective sheet format, d. H. at bow length and bow width.
  • the sheets or foils provided with the suction openings are made of metal or plastic.
  • a sheet-fed printing machine in particular a digital printing machine, has a feeder 2 for feeding sheets to the sheet-fed printing press 1 and a delivery 4 for discharging the printed sheets from the digital printing press 1. It is at least one printing station 6 is provided for printing the sheets 3.
  • the sheet is transferred from the feeder 2 by means of a feed table to a feed cylinder 8, which preferably transfers the sheet to a double-size transfer drum 9. From here, the sheet 3 passes by means of a z. B. simply large transfer cylinder 11 to a z. B. three-size printing cylinder 12, on which the sheet is printed by means of an inkjet printing unit 13.
  • the printed sheet 3 is transferred from the printing cylinder 12 to a particular double-sized transfer drum, from where this is a z. B.
  • the transfer drum 14 operates as a storage drum and transfers the sheet at its trailing edge to a downstream turning drum 18, from where the sheet 3 is returned to the printing drum 9 for printing on its back by means of a transfer drum 19 so that it in the printing unit 6 on the back can be printed.
  • the printing cylinder 12 is formed in particular as an inkjet printing cylinder and has for holding a sheet mechanical or pneumatic gripping means 22 in order to fix the sheet at its leading edge.
  • a sheet mechanical or pneumatic gripping means 22 in order to fix the sheet at its leading edge.
  • the suction openings 24 are in sheets or foils in each case a grid A, U, S; A, K ( FIGS. 6-8 ; FIGS. 11-14 ) on the peripheral surface of the printing cylinder 12 according to FIG. 3 or a table according to FIG. 2 arranged.
  • the individual grid windows may in particular also have any desired rectangular, circular or possibly also other geometric shapes.
  • a thin-layer slide 22 is arranged with the circumferential grid U, which is mounted displaceably in the circumferential direction of the printing cylinder 12.
  • the circumferential grid U has a number of suction openings 24 with a uniform surface F with the edge lengths L, which are arranged in rows and rows.
  • a distance X of the rows seen in the sheet transport direction is the same.
  • a distance Y of the lines lying within a smallest longitudinal format to be processed is Y.
  • a distance of the lines which are outside of a smallest longitudinal format to be processed is Z.
  • the distance Z is smaller or larger than Y (Z ⁇ Y).
  • a lower slider 28 is arranged with the side grid S having a number of suction openings 24S with a uniform surface F with the edge lengths L, which are arranged in rows and rows.
  • a distance Y of the lines is the same as seen in the sheet transport direction.
  • the distances V, W outside the smallest format to be processed are uniform but smaller or larger than the distances X (V ⁇ X ⁇ W; or V> X> W).
  • the distances V z. B. by the amount greater than X as the distances W are smaller than X.
  • combi-grid K is diagonally displaceable or rotatable in the circumferential direction and slidably disposed in the lateral direction under the exit pattern A.
  • the combination raster K points according to FIG. 11 a number of suction openings 24K having a uniform area F with the edge lengths L arranged in rows and rows.
  • a distance Y of the lines is seen in the sheet transport direction in smallest format to be processed (minimum format) equal. In minimal format, this also applies to the row spacings X, the suction openings 24K arranged in rows.
  • FIG. 12 the position of the combination grid K is shown in relation to the exit grid A in a position "maximum format" for processing a maximum format.
  • all suction openings (holes) 24 are at least partially opened. If the combination raster K is now displaced by the amount "a" against the sheet transport direction, the suction openings 24 outside the minimal format are successively closed in the longitudinal direction (s. FIG. 13 ).
