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.
  • a suction surface of a printing cylinder of a sheet-processing machine which has circumferentially distributed suction openings, which are actuated by means of a valve block.
  • the DE 10 2006 012 895 A1 relates to a device for sucking workpieces and has a base body, which is applied to a negative pressure.
  • the main body is provided with a suction plate to be applied to the workpiece, which has a plurality of suction openings.
  • the flow cross section of one or more of the suction openings is variable.
  • the EP 1 099 552 A2 relates to a cylinder for sheet guiding in a printing press.
  • the cylinder can be acted upon with suction or blowing air and the effective air openings of the cylinder are adjustable to the sheet format to be processed.
  • the cylinder has a tubular outer jacket and a tubular inner jacket rotatable relative thereto.
  • Inner casing and outer casing circumferentially carry a plurality of rows of air openings, which can be exposed or turned off by rotating the inner shell.
  • 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.
  • 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 ).
