Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for fastening a flexible plate on a Cylinder of a rotary printing press according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • DE 43 35 140 C1 is a device for attaching a flexible Printing plate on the forme cylinder of a rotary printing press with at least one in Axial cylinder pit known.
  • a leading and acute angled hanging leg is on one edge of the the first pit wall of the cylinder pit of the forme cylinder.
  • a trailing one Hanging leg is on the approximately in the radial direction of the forme cylinder second pit wall of the cylinder pit can be created.
  • the cylinder pit takes one around her Axis swiveling spindle. On the spindle are two each across the width of the Pressure plate distributed leaf springs attached, which when swiveling the spindle with the Hanging legs can be brought into or out of engagement.
  • EP 06 06 604 B1 discloses a device for the positive fastening of a Printing plate.
  • clamping strips are actuated by means of an air hose.
  • the invention has for its object a device for attaching a to create a flexible plate on a cylinder of a rotary printing press.
  • the advantages that can be achieved with the invention consist in particular in that a robust, simply constructed and inexpensive to manufacture device was created.
  • the The device can be adjusted in three positions without turning the spindle. This device is particularly suitable for clamping and releasing several on the circumference of one Cylinder arranged plates.
  • Another advantage of the device is that its axial extension can consist of several short base bodies. This makes it possible to z. B. piecewise for maintenance purposes from the cylinder pit without removing the cylinder from the side frame to disassemble. An automatic plate feed and discharge using known Devices are possible.
  • a cylinder 01 e.g. B. a plate or blanket cylinder of a rotary printing press is for receiving two flexible plates 02; 58 with two cylinder pits 03; 59 provided. Every cylinder pit 03; 59 carries on each front facing in the production direction A of the cylinder 01 Edge 04 a front or "leading" hanging leg 06; 61 of plate 02; 58. Each plate 02; 58 also has a rear or “trailing" hanging leg 07; 62, which on a second rear edge 08 of the same cylinder pit 03; 59 is mounted.
  • an acute opening angle alpha is formed, e.g. B. up to 45 °.
  • The has a second pit wall 13, which extends approximately in the radial direction of the cylinder 01 an obtuse opening angle beta of approximately 95 ° to the lateral surface 11.
  • Both edges 04; 08 or vertices of the opening angle alpha; Beta are through one Mounting slot 09 separately.
  • the mounting slot 09 is formed in its internal width b so that there is space for at least two hanging legs 06, 62 and 07, 61 next to each other, which in the cylinder pit 03; 59 protrude.
  • the plates 02; 58 can e.g. B. as flexible printing plates - also several side by side lying - or as flexible carrier plates with rubber blankets arranged on them be trained.
  • the cylinder pit 03; 59 can be approximately circular in cross section and is through the Fastening slot 09 connected to the lateral surface 11.
  • Each cylinder pit 03; 59 takes in each case an identically designed clamping device 14; 16, which is arranged in a base body 19.
  • the base body 19 has the shape a longitudinally separated tube (trough-shaped), which is in the cylinder pit 03; 59 in extends parallel to the axis and with its opening in the direction of the first pit wall 12 or in the direction of the fastening slot 09.
  • the channel-shaped base body 19 can be C-shaped or U-shaped, round, oval in cross section or be polygonal.
  • the cross section of the base body 19 is Cross-section of the cylinder pit 03 adapted.
  • the base body 19 is in axially parallel direction in several shorter base body 32; 33; 34 divided.
  • everyone Base body 32; 33; 34 is opposite the adjacent base body 32; 33; 34 detachable, z. B. connected by means of a clutch.
  • This clutch can e.g. B. act positively and by means of a double-sided toothing 36; 37 the base body 32; 33; 34 realized become.
  • a free end of the in the cylinder pit 03; 59 first and last Base body is rotatably connected to an end coupling piece 38.
  • the device z. B. for maintenance purposes from the cylinder pit 03; 59 can be removed without the cylinder 01 must be removed from the side frame.
  • each base body 19 or 32 to 34 are movable clamping and / or Clamping elements arranged, which consist of two parallel strips 39; 41 exist.
  • First or lower ends 42; 43 are at a clear distance g, z.
  • B. one Sixth or eighth of the diameter d of the cylinder pit 03; 59, from each other in Abutments 44 pivotally mounted.
  • the abutments 44 can be made in the base body 19 or slots 45 arranged in each of the base bodies 32 to 34, in what parts of the lower end 42; 43 of the bar 39; 41 intervene.
  • Second or upper hook-in legs near ends 46; 47 (Force attack ends) of the strips 39; 41 protrude from the interior 29 of the base body 19 or 32 to 34 and are directly or indirectly with the opposite Hanging legs 06, 62 or 07, 61 in operative connection and push them through the Force of at least one spring 48; 49, e.g. B. compression spring against the first or second pit wall 12; 13 on.
  • the compression springs 48; 49 are each between the Inner wall 28 of the base body 19 and the outside 51; 52 of the bar 39; 41 arranged.
  • active connection means that between the upper towards the first Pit wall 12 bent end 47 of the bar 41 and the or at the first Pit wall 12 adjoining hanging legs 06 or 61 at least for each base body 32 to 34 a rolling element, for. B. a pinch roller 53 is arranged.
  • each base body 32 to 34 lies in one on the top Einsteck Anlagenelnenen end 46 of the bar 39 located recess 54.
  • On both sides of the Recess 54 remain folded arms 46 of the upper end 46, which against the second pit wall 13 or against the hanging leg 07; Press 62 (Figs. 1 and 2).
  • the air hose 27 is at one of its ends, for. B. provided with a valve and is a so connected, not shown line to the cylinder journal and by means of a known If necessary, compressed air is introduced to the rotary inlet.
  • a pressure force F1 exerted by the spring 48 is greater than that by the spring 49 pressure applied F2.
  • the parts 39; located in the interior 29 of the base body 19; 41; 48; 49; 53 are referred to as clamping and / or tensioning elements. This also applies to them shorter base body 32 to 34 too.
  • a method of releasing a plate 02 from two on the circumference of the cylinder 01 attached flexible plates 02; 58 runs as follows:
  • the air hose 27 of the first Clamping device 14 is pressurized with compressed air of approximately four bar. This will the lasts 39; 41 against the force F1; F2 of springs 48; 49 in a first release position X pivoted (Fig. 3). All clamps are removed.
  • Rear Insert leg 07 of the plate 02 rips out of the due to its inherent tension Fixing slot 09 out.
  • the front suspension leg 61 of the second plate 58 is held on the front edge 04 of the cylinder pit 03.
  • the air pressure for the Hose 27 of the clamping device 14 is withdrawn.
  • Plates 02 or 58 are clamped in the reverse order.
