Abstract

A perfect binder for processing book blocks, including: a conveying device adapted to convey the book blocks along a closed circulating path, the conveying device including a plurality of clamping devices each adapted to convey a book block; and a plurality of processing stations arranged successively along the closed circulating path. One of the processing stations includes a spine-processing station, and another one of the processing stations includes an end sheet feed station following the spine-processing station. According to another aspect of the invention there is provided a method forthe perfect binding of book blocks, comprising: conveying the book blocks around a closed circulating path with each book block clamped in a clamping device of a conveying device, wherein a pluralityof processing stations are arranged successively along the closed circulating path; milling the spine of each book block at one of the processing stations; and subsequently, inserting at least one endsheet into the clamping device at a downstream end sheet feed station.

Description

Technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to a bonder for processing book blocks, with a conveying device for book blocks with a closed running track and a plurality of successive processing stations assigned to the conveying device, wherein the conveying device has a plurality of separate The book block is conveyed to the clamping device of the processing station, and one of the processing stations is the book back processing device. The invention also relates to a corresponding bonding method. Background technique

[0002] Binding factories are increasingly facing the problem that they can only manufacture book blocks for hard cover products in small batches, usually one book per edition. Generally, the content of such books is produced by a printing press with a short reloading time. The most common is that short-runs are made by digital printing presses, which allow dynamic changes to printed content. This can achieve continuous printing of books and continue to pr...

Embodiment Construction

[0039] figure 1 A top view of the bonder 7 used to process the book block 8 into bonded books, which can be made into hardcovers (Hardcover) later in an automatic book production line. The bonder 7 is driven by an unshown drive mechanism designed as a motor. Of course, one or more hydraulic or pneumatic drive mechanisms can also be used. The bonder 7 has a conveying device 9 and a plurality of processing stations 10. The conveying device 9 is a round table 12 rotating around a shaft 11 with a closed circular running track 13. The periphery of the table 12 has six splint accommodating mechanisms 14 arranged at equal intervals with each other, and these splint accommodating mechanisms respectively receive clamping devices 1 to 6 for the book block 8. Clamping devices 1 to 6 are adhesive splints with outer splints and inner splints 15, 16 respectively ( figure 2 ). The outer splints 15 arranged at an interval of 60° respectively have a fixed splint half and a movable splint half 1...
