Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A method and apparatus for making folded stacks of printed sheets, and for transporting the stacks to a bookbinding machine.
  • Four superimposed imprinted bands are transported to cutting means which cut off leading portions of the four bands to form stacks of sheets which are transported at an increased speed so as to be separated from the following leading band portions.
  • Two stacks are superimposed to form a double stack with eight sheets, and the double stacks are folded to form booklets having sixteen imprinted sheet portions.
  • the folded booklets are deposited at the bookbinding machine, and bound along the foldline.
  • SHEET 2 METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MAKING STACKS OF PRINTED SHEETS FOR A BOOKBINDING MACHINE BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • the present invention is concerned with the manufacture of books, brochures and other stacks of folded sheets which are cut off from several superimposed paper bands.
  • paper webs are continuously imprinted in printing machines, such as rotary printing machines, and then supplied to folding apparatus in which they are cut and folded.
  • the folded sheets are gathered, manually placed on pallets and transported to the bookbinding machine where the folded sheets are manually arranged in small stacks on a table.
  • the arrangement has the disadvantage that four to five workers are required for carrying out the necessary manual operation following the imprinting of the web at a high speed rotary printing machine.
  • the paper webs stored on reels are cut longitudinally to form narrow paper webs, and these narrow webs are superimposed so that the superimposed webs have as many layers as the printed book to be made has pages.
  • the superimposed webs are glued at the back, whereupon a further web is supplied for forming the cover.
  • the completed encased books are cut off the superimposed webs.
  • the apparatus is expensive and has the disadvantage that stitching or stapling is not possible.
  • Another object of the invention is to form stacks of sheets by cutting off the leading portion of a plurality of superimposed imprinted paper bands.
  • the method of the invention comprises the steps of transporting in one longitudinal direction at a first speed a plurality of superimposed bands having imprints along predetermined equal longitudinal distances; cutting off successive superimposed leading portions of the superimposed bands at the predetermined distances to form stacks of printed sheets; transporting each cut off stack of printed sheets at a second speed higher than the first speed so that each cut off stack separates from the following uncut superimposed leading portions of the superimposed bands; and depositing the cut off stacks for binding in a bookbinding machine.
  • two successive cut off stacks are stacked for forming a double stack which is folded along a central fold line which may be stitched in a bookbinding machine so that a bound booklet results.
  • the apparatus of the invention includes first transporting means for transporting the superimposed bands, cutting means for cutting off successive superimposed leading portions of the bands at the predetermined distances to form stacks of printed sheets; and second transporting means for transporting each cut off stack at a second higher speed in the same direction so that each stack separates from the following uncut superimposed leading portions of the superimposed bands.
  • each imprint on the bands has two separate parts, and folding means fold the stacks along a center fold line located between the two separate parts of the imprints.
  • the first transporting means preferably includes a pair of transporting rollers
  • the second transporting means include endless conveyor means for transporting the stacks at an increased speed away from the cutting means.
  • An embodiment of the apparatus of the invention comprises rotary reel means for a wound up web having a four transversely adjacent imprints, a first cutting device for cutting the web along a longitudinal center line into two web portions; first guide means for superimposing the two web portions; a second cutting device for cutting each of the web portions along longitudinal center lines thereof into two pairs of bands; and second guide means for superimposing the two pairs of bands to form four superimposed bands transported by the first transporting means to the cutting means.
  • FIG. 1 is a fragmentary perspective view illustrating a device for transforming a broad web into four superimposed bands
  • FIG. 2 is a fragmentary side elevation illustrating one embodiment of the apparatus of the invention with depositing means for a saddle stitching machine;
  • FIG. 3 is a fragmentary side elevation illustrating depositing means for a bookbinding machine in which the back of the folded stack of sheets is glued.
  • a pair of transporting rollers 1] transport a paper web 1 and pull it off a reel shaft la.
  • the paper web 1 has four imprinted areas or imprints 1b across its width.
  • a rotary cutter 2 is positioned at the center of the web and cuts the web into two longitudinal web portions 12 and 13, each of which has two imprints 1b across its width.
  • Guide rods 4 and 5 guide the web portion 13 downward under the web portion 12 which is guided by aguide roller 6 to register with the web portion 13 so that the two web portions Hand 13 are exactly superimposed on another guide roller 8.
  • a second cutter 7 cuts longitudinally along the'center line ofthe superimposed web portions 12 and 13 so that four bands are formed which are superimposed by a guide means 9 to form a web 10 consisting of four superimposed bands 10a.
  • Each band 10a has a width corresponding to the width of one printed area 1b which follow each other on each band 10a at equal distances, and are separated by free spaces.
  • the two transporting rollers 11 transport the web 10 of four superimposed bands 10a in horizontal direction to a pair of endless conveyors 19, 20.
  • a rotary cutter 14, which cooperates with a counter cutter 15, has a peripheral cutting knife. and cuts during each revolution of the cutting means 14 and 15, a transverse cut through the web 10 which is located between two printed portions lb.
  • a stack of four superimposed sheets 16 is cut off from the leading portion of the transported web 10.
  • Each stack 16 of four superimposed sheets has the length A which corresponds to the longitudinal extension of two printing areas or imprints 1b, so that a cut is made at every second space between two adjacent imprints 112.
  • the length A of the cut off stacks can be set.
  • the acceleration rollers 17 rotate at the same rotary speed as the rotary cutting means 14 and 15.
  • the cut off stack 16 While the cut off stack 16 is transported at an increased speed, it reaches a mechanical switch 21 which is positioned to guide each stack of four superimposed sheets between a rotary stacking drum 22 and a band 23 guided on rollers to extend around the stacking drum 22.
  • a stack 16 When a stack 16 has passed about the stacking drum 22, it is deposited on the next following stack 16 of four sheets to form a double stack having eight sheets.
  • the thus formed double stack 24 is of greater thickness than the single stack 16, and shifts the mechanical switch 21 so that the double stack 24 is transported by conveyor band 20 until stopped by a stop 25 in a position in which the center thereof is located under a transverse folding knife 26 which is then reciprocated in vertical direction to cooperate with a gap between two folding rollers 27, so that, as shown in FIG. 2, the double stack is folded to form a folded stack of sheets. Since each stack 24 is folded along a fold line which is located between two imprints 1b, the folded stack forms a booklet with 16 sheets.
  • the folding rollers 27 transport the folded stack 24 to a gripper drum 28 of known construction which transports the stacks to positioning rollers 29 which place the two legs of the folded stack 27 in a position straddling the conveyor 30 of a stitching machine which secures the spines of the folded stacks 27a on conveyor 30 to each other.
  • stack 24 is transported by transporting rollers 27 into the gap between a drum 31 and a portion of an endless belt 32-50 that the folded stack 24 is deposited on the collecting channel 33 of a glue bookbinding machine.
  • Apparatus for continuously transforming superimposed bands into bound booklets comprising first transporting means for transporting in one longitudinal direction a plurality of superimposed bands at a first speed; cutting means for cyclically cutting off successive superimposed leading portions of said superimposed bands at predetermined equal distances to form stacks of sheets, said cutting means including a rotary cutter cutting said superimposed bands once during each revolution of said rotary cutter; second transporting means adjacent said cutting means for transporting each cut-off stack at a second higher speed so that each stack separates from the following leading portion of said superimposed bands; stacking means for stacking each second cut-off stack on the preceding cut-off stack whereby double stacks are formed having twice the number of sheets than each cut-off stack, said stacking means including a rotary stacking drum, and a mechanical switch for guiding every second cut-off stack onto the preceding cut-off stack, said rotary stacking drum rotating at the same rotary speed as said rotary cutter and having a peripheral speed equal to the speed of said second transporting means; folding means for folding each double
