p0015The invention is based is to provide a device for processing and / or conveying a web the task.

p0016This object is achieved by the features of claim 1.

p0017An essential achievable with the device or the method advantage is on the one hand that a lengthy set at the start of production is eliminated. Unlike settings, which only takes place during the pressure receiving means control circuits, the amount of waste is significantly reduced.

p0018A particular advantage of the invention is that it enables a rapid adaptation to a change of the processed web widths, because a user does not have access individually to each individual in adapting to move to the web width web-treatment tool.

p0019Another time saving results if the control unit itself is arranged to calculate the necessarily correlated with each other positions of the various working tools of a small number of input parameters and automatically adjust. In the simplest case it is sufficient to calculate these positions, only to specify the width of a web to be processed; the control unit can determine the required positions of all machining tools in a simple manner under the condition that a reference line of all paths to be processed, eg. as a right or left edge, or preferably the center line, irrespective of the width in the apparatus, the same from this requirement occupies position.

p0020Since the measures necessary to adapt to a changed web width shifts of some web-treatment tools are firmly correlated, the device can be simplified by an actuator for moving multiple path processing tools will be used simultaneously.

p0021The web processing tools of the device according to the invention includes, for example, at least one former. With a suitable choice of the reference line, it may be sufficient if only one is displaced by two formers; one chooses, however, which is preferred, the center line of the web to be processed as a reference line, so both must be at least displaced by two formers arranged side by side.

p0022The apparatus may further comprise at least one interval cutter for paging slitting the web. If there is a printed paper web, in particular a newspaper in the web of material, such interval cutter can be used to cut the web in each case locally of each second side so as z. B. a broadsheet signature with a tabloid insert to produce.

p0023If a cut up into several partial webs original web is processed in the apparatus, so pulling or catching roles as web editing tools expediently each of the partial webs assigned in the same way. It is therefore desirable that such roles are also corresponding to the width of the original web to be processed and the number of partial webs automatically by the control unit positionable.

p0024Also turning bars can be as provided by the control unit movable machining tools. When editing tools here and below are also Bahnleit-, Bahnantriebs- and / or web guiding elements, understood as such. B. turner bars, pressure rollers and / or guide rollers.

p0025For driving the displacement of the machining tools, the actuators each comprise a threaded spindle, and the movable cutting tool have in each case a sliding block, which is provided with such a threaded spindle engaged.

p0026According to the invention, such a threaded spindle a plurality of sections, which differ in direction of rotation and / or incline, and the sliding blocks of several machining tools of the same type are respectively engaged with the different sections of a same spindle to coupled the machining tools, but possibly in different directions, and / or to shift speeds.

p0028<figref idrefs="f0001 f0002">Fig. 1</figref> A shows a former arrangement in which the two partial sheets of paper 01, 02 next to each other over a roll 03 and then in two formers 06, 07 are guided. The former 06, 07 are parallel to the axis of roller 03 mounted in a frame 04th An actuator for moving the former 06, 07 is formed by a to the axis of roll 03 parallel threaded spindle 08 which has two portions with equal and opposite pitch, and a drive 11, for. Example, electric motor 11, for rotating the threaded spindle 08. The drive 11 and the former 06; 07 moving gear can be carried out in other ways. The former 06, 07 are each provided with a sliding block 09, with the two sliding blocks 09 08 are connected to different sections of the threaded spindle in engagement, so that rotation of the threaded spindle 08, the former 06, 07 drives to opposite movements. An electronic control unit 10 or a below-called system S for presetting controls the electric motor 11 on the basis of an input from the user to the control unit 10 (or present the system S) width of the paper webs 01, 02. The information on the width, the control device 10 ( or system S) and through other means, eg., by reading a common value or in a product planning system, a machine control, an imposition and / or a control station (in<figref idrefs="f0014">Fig. 9</figref> equivalent to P called) reproached value are implemented.

p0029A connected to the former 06 left frame 15 or frame 15 also serves as a support for a bearing of the roller 03 so that the roller 03 every movement of the former 06 follows. The right side of the roller 03 is telescopically on a fixed frame 04 at the pin, for. Example, via an axially displaceable bearing 25 (<figref idrefs="f0002">FIG. 1b)</figref>Slidably. By dragging the former 06 thus the roller 03 and z. B. shifts a circumferential groove on the roller 03 20 (dashed lines in<figref idrefs="f0002">Figure 1 b)</figref>Which acts as a cutting with a knife for the continuous or discontinuous longitudinal section together.

p0030Also rigidly connected to the former 06, z. B. over the frame 15 is an interval cutter 05 or skip slitter 05, which is mounted above the roll 03. The interval cutter 05 has a rotating broken blade 06 is aligned with the fold line of the former and of alternately printed on the paper web section 01 pairs of printed pages alternately a pair of cuts and the other leaves uncut. If it is in the uncut side pairs to broadsheet pages with transversely oriented to the direction of rows and the cut to tabloid pages whose lines are oriented in the conveying direction, as can be deduced from the paper web portion 01 in a connected, not shown folder easily way create a signature with an insert in the half-page size.

p0031In <figref idrefs="f0002">FIG. 1b </figref>is the attitude of the former 06, 07 shown for the processing of two partial sheets of paper 12, 13, the opposite of the partial sheets of paper 01, 02 <figref idrefs="f0001 f0002">Fig. 1</figref> a by a value d are narrower. The center line M, at which the webs 12, 13 meet, has the same position as the center line M between the webs 01, 02 in respect to the frame<figref idrefs="f0001 f0002">Fig. 1</figref> a. To set the former 06, 07 for processing such narrow partial sheets of paper 12, 13 is the electric motor 11, the threaded spindle is rotated 08 so that the former 06, 07 are shifted toward the center line M respectively to d / 2.

p0032In an advantageous modification or refinement with the former 06; 07 - in addition to or instead of the compound to the knife 05 - one of the former tip downstream driven roller 30 together or simultaneously with the former 06; 07 laterally movable. For this purpose, the former 06, 07 preferably via a common frame 15 with a bearing of the roller 30th In shifting the former 06, 07 at the same time the roller 30 is moved. The roller 30 is performed either as a driven transfer roll 30, over which a the former 06; 07 leaving sender strand is out and undergoes a change in direction. In other embodiments, the roll can be carried out 30 as z. B. a single motor-driven drawing roller 30 a Zugwalzengruppe against which a pressure roller 35 is adjustable. In this case, the entire traction system 30, 35 with the former 06; 07 connected.

p0033Of course, could be a former arrangement of in <figref idrefs="f0001 f0002">Fig. 1</figref> having a, 1 b type shown, three or more formers for the processing of a corresponding number of partial webs. If three parallel partial webs are to be processed and its center line M always has independent of the width of the tracks the same position with respect to the frame, the two outer formers are to d to move with a change in width of the partial webs in each case by d, while the center former remains unshifted. corresponding to the case of four partial webs is the displacement of d / 2 for the two middle and 3d / 2 for the two outer, etc.

p0034In an advantageous embodiment, it is to preset the press (see <figref idrefs="f0014">Fig. 9</figref>) Provided that the controller 10 or the drive 11 for the described movement of the former 06; 07 is in signal communication with the system S. On the basis of production data (. Eg the web or partial web width b, b ') is the current situation of the former 06; 07 compared with a predetermined or predeterminable position for this production and, if necessary, causes a corresponding movement via actuating commands to the respective drive eleventh Depending on the web or partial web width and / or position whose center is the former 06; 07 (or the former tip) to position themselves accordingly laterally. The former 06; . 07, for example, is positioned so that the partial web 02; . 05 centrally with respect to the former tip on the respective former 06; 07 runs. Presetting values ​​can be stored in tables for various productions, or it finds a calculation based on the resultant from the web widths and the lateral offset web paths in the system instead.

p0035<figref idrefs="f0003">Fig. 2A</figref> shows a fishing reel assembly as another example of web editing tools. This fishing reel assembly consists of a roller 14 to be caught in the operation of one, in the figure paper web is not shown is wrapped, a plurality of rollers 16, a plurality of sliding blocks 18, 19, 21, a guide rail 17, a threaded spindle 22 and one already mentioned by the control unit 10 (or system S) controlled electric motor 23rd

p0036The roller 14 is rotatably mounted in the frame 04th In parallel with the roller 14, the guide rail 17 is mounted in the rack 04th On the guide rail 17 are a plurality of sliding blocks 18, 19 is slidably disposed. A centrally to the roller 14 disposed sliding block 21 is fixed on the guide rail 17th The sliding blocks 18, 19 and 21 each carry a rotatably mounted roller 16. In this case, press the rollers 16 against the roller 14 and roll against this from. Since the rollers 16 are designed for rotation in only one direction, prevent a backflow of looped around the roller 14 the paper web during a possible web break.

p0037The threaded spindle 22 penetrates on one side the frame 04 and protrudes at this point from the frame 04 also. It is aligned parallel to the roller 14 and the guide rail 17th The lead screw 22 has two different threaded portions with different directions of rotation, which are separated by a non-threaded portion. In this non-threaded portion of the sliding block 21 is arranged. The two threaded portions have slopes that 22 increase proportionally to the distance from the slide block 21 along a longitudinal axis of the threaded spindle. The sliding blocks 18, 19 are provided with the saw from sliding block 21 from left and right threaded portion rather than an internal thread with several turns in engagement - such would get stuck due to the variability of the pitch, rather than a single narrow spigot on a small circumferential section of the threaded spindle 22 in whose thread engages the protruding end portion of the frame 04 of the lead screw 22 engages the electric motor 23 on the threaded spindle 22 at.

p0038If the interceptor roller arrangement shown to be used for a paper web with a narrower width, the sliding blocks 18, 19 along the guide rail 17 to be moved, as in <figref idrefs="f0004">FIG. 2b</figref> shown. The threaded spindle 22 is rotated via the drive 23rd As a result of the different direction of rotation of the two with the sliding blocks 18 and 19 in engagement threaded portions move at a rotation of the threaded spindle 22 the sliding blocks 18 of the left and the sliding blocks 19 from the right to the center slider 21 to. The movement of the sliding blocks 18, 19 is synchronous case, but as a result of along the longitudinal axis of the threaded spindle 22 changing of threaded portions are the paths of the sliding blocks 18, 19 and thus to cover the run of them rolls 16, proportional to your distance middle sliding block 21. Depending on the width of the product web can be the sliding blocks 18, 19 move through a corresponding rotation of the lead screw 22 more or less close to the sliding block 21 continuously, and set the catcher roller so for any web widths. The sliding blocks 18, 19 may be placed in front of a shift arbitrarily on the spindle 22; the ratio of their distances is maintained at a shift.

p0039It is also conceivable, two threaded sections each having along its length would provide a constant slope. This is sufficient for a roller assembly with no more than three movable rollers 16. In the event of a larger number of rollers, as in the<figref idrefs="f0004">FIG. 2b</figref> shown, the distance between the two left sliding blocks would (also and between the right sliding blocks 19) remain 18 with a displacement constant and distance ratios would change with a shift.

p0040Another possibility would be, for each of the four sliding blocks 18, 19 provide a separate threaded portion with a specific slope. However, the variability of web widths to which the fishing reel assembly is adjustable, then limited by the fact that the sliding blocks - at least those that are coupled via an internal thread with several turns of the spindle - can not leave the threaded portions with the appropriate for their pitch .

p0041It might also be a plurality of threaded spindles with two portions of equal and opposite pitch are provided, the mirror image of each bear sliding blocks of each other relative to the center line M opposite roles. These screws are expediently identical to each other. To obtain different shifts of the coupled to them rollers, the threaded spindles by a common electric motor via a gear may be driven with respectively adapted transmission ratio, or each threaded spindle has its own electric motor, which is controlled by the control unit individually according to the required displacement.

p0042In the manner just described also Zugrollenanordnungen for being processed paper webs can perform adjustable with different widths, as Zugrollenanordnungen principle have an analog to catch roller assemblies structure. Such preset values ​​may be stored in tabular form for the different productions, or it takes place in the system S, a calculation using the from the web widths and the to be obtained lateral offset.

p0043<figref idrefs="f0005">Fig. 3a</figref> shows a longitudinal cutting device 71 of a superstructure 67 (<figref idrefs="f0014">Fig. 9</figref>). The longitudinal cutting device 71 is adapted to, for example, two partial webs cut open an incoming web into a plurality of partial webs longitudinally. Two guide rails 24 are arranged in parallel in the frame 04th A paper web 26 is guided between the two guide rails 24 pass. Two slides 27 are slidably supported on the two guide rails 24th They are mirror images of each other and mounted. Each carriage 27 supports a rotating knife 28 perpendicularly to the paper web 26 oriented cutting edge and cooperating with the knife 28 platen roller 29 (counter-blade). Between the carriage 27 a further blade 32, which is also perpendicular on the paper web 26, and one with this cooperating counter-pressure roll 31. The paper web 26 31 is cut by the blades 28, 32 and counter-pressure rollers 29, into four lanes. A parallel to the guide rails 24 threaded spindle 33 has two threaded sections with different directions of rotation and the same pitch, each of which is 27 with the carriage engaged. An end portion of the threaded spindle 33 protrudes on one side from the rack 04th At this end, a drive 34, eg. As electric motor 34, provided for rotating the threaded spindle 33rd The individual blades 28; 32 or counter-blade can also be driven together with a different style drive 34th

p0044If the longitudinal cutting device described cutting a paper web 36 with a narrow width in four partial webs, so as to <figref idrefs="f0006">FIG. 3b</figref> shown the threaded spindle 33 is rotated by the electric motor 34th Since the sled 27 33 are provided on different threaded portions of the threaded spindle with different directions of rotation and the same pitch in engagement, causes the rotation of the threaded spindle 33 that the carriage 27 to move to respectively equal distances to each other or to the central knife 32nd The rotation of the threaded spindle 33 is continued until the distance between the two knives 28, 32 one quarter of the width of the narrow paper web 36 corresponds.

p0045The operation of the motor 34 is by the control unit 10 (or system S) (<figref idrefs="f0001">Fig. 1 a)</figref> controlled or predetermined, which calculates the positions of the blades 28 on the basis of a set by the user or by (not shown) sensors automatically detected width of the web to be cut or the resulting from the cut partial webs.

p0046The axial positioning or at least preset by the machine control is preferably carried out automatically by means of the manually for printing intended width of the web and the specific product to be carried out cut lines or from a control panel forth. To this end, the current setting of the production envisaged, for example, before the start of production from the system S (from the machine controller or a corresponding software program) checks required presetting to and / or a default by acting on the drive 34 (or the drives 34) hit. Such preset values ​​may be stored in tabular form for the different productions, or it takes place in the system S, a calculation using the from the web widths and the to be obtained lateral offset.

p0047In <figref idrefs="f0007">FIG. 4a</figref> is a turning deck with two crossed turning bars 37, 38 is shown as another example of web-treatment tools, which can be present in the device. Two pairs of guide rails 39, 41 denotes, as the front 41 and rear guide rails 39 are held between plates of the frame 04th Each pair of guide rails 39, 41 only an upper guide rail in the figure can be seen, as they covered her parallel underlying rail. At the ends of the turning bar 37 is in each case a sliding block 42, 43 is provided, wherein the slide block 42 is slidably disposed on the visible upper guide rail 39 of the rear guide rail pair and the sliding block 43 on the visible upper guide rail 41 of the front guide rail pair. Accordingly, 38 are two slide blocks 44, 46 provided, the sliding block 44 is 46 slidably disposed on the non-visible lower guide rail 39 of the rear guide rail pair and the sliding block on the non-visible lower guide rail 41 of the front guide rail pair at the ends of the turning bar.

p0048Between the guide rail pairs 39 and 41 and transverse to these a deflection roller 47 is rotatably arranged in the frame 04th
