Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a printing press having at least one device for conveying a printing press pallet.
[0002] The technical field to which this invention pertains is the graphic industry, and in particular relates to the technical field of conveying (e.g., to a printing press) trays for stacking sheets of printing material. Background Technology
[0003] DE4023877A1 discloses a roller conveyor for a carriage in a printing press.
[0004] DE10122430A1 discloses a buffer station for logistics in a printing plant.
[0005] DE3835268C2 discloses a device for removing stacked tables with liftable and lowerable features from a bracket.
[0006] Documents JPH1018634A, JPH1037511A, and JPH10140871A pertain to the field of storing automobile bodies in high-rise warehouses, which is quite different from the graphics industry. They describe areas with elevators for frame-like components, both above ground and underground. Summary of the Invention
[0007] Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide an improved solution compared to the prior art, which in particular provides machine storage racks in a space-saving manner (especially with regard to machine floor area) and in a non-disruptive manner (especially with regard to operator access to the machine).
[0008] These tasks are solved according to the present invention using a printing press.
[0009] Advantageous and therefore preferred improvements of the invention are derived from the description and drawings.
[0010] According to the present invention, an apparatus for conveying trays for stacking sheets of printing material is provided, the apparatus having a conveying path for the trays arranged in a horizontal plane, characterized in that the apparatus includes a holder for the trays, wherein the holder receives a plurality of empty trays arranged vertically to each other, wherein the holder is arranged below the horizontal plane.
[0011] The present invention also relates to a graphic industrial machine having at least one device according to the invention, wherein the machine is substantially arranged above the horizontal plane.
[0012] This invention advantageously provides machine storage racks in a space-saving manner (particularly regarding machine floor space) and in a non-disruptive manner (particularly regarding operator access to the machine). This allows for efficient use of area and space in the printing plant. Productivity can be increased, and costs can be reduced.
[0013] The following describes a preferred extension of the device according to the present invention (hereinafter referred to as the "extension").
[0014] One extension may feature that the storage device includes a travel / lifting mechanism for the tray, the travel mechanism having a driver and a controller. The driver may include a scissor lift. The controller may include a digital computer, preferably connected to a computer for tray logistics.
[0015] One extension may be characterized in that the controller controls the drive of the travel device in such a way that the travel device descends to receive the tray and ascends to deliver the stored tray.
[0016] One extension may be characterized in that the storage device is implemented as a vertical storage device, wherein the storage device receives a plurality of empty brackets arranged vertically above each other or a plurality of empty brackets stacked on top of each other.
[0017] One extension may be characterized in that the storage device is implemented as a vertical storage device, wherein the storage device receives a plurality of empty brackets arranged directly above or below each other in the vertical direction or a plurality of empty brackets stacked directly on top of each other.
[0018] The following describes a preferred extension of the machine according to the present invention (hereinafter referred to as the "extension").
[0019] One possible extension is that the horizontal plane is formed by the hall floor, and the machine is placed upright on the hall floor. The machine can be placed directly (e.g., on its support legs) on the hall floor. Alternatively, the machine can be placed indirectly on the hall floor: the machine can be a so-called "elevated machine" placed on a protrusion (e.g., a concrete base strip) located on the hall floor.
[0020] One extension may be characterized in that the storage device is implemented as a vertical storage device and arranged in a recess (Grube) in the hall floor.
[0021] One extension may feature that the conveyor path is positioned below the operator's access passage of the machine. Here, the passage facilitates easy access / contact for the operator with the machine (particularly the higher or elevated sections of the machine, such as the printing unit). The passage is accessible to the operator.
[0022] One possible extension is that the machine is a printing press.
[0023] The features and combinations of features disclosed in the foregoing paragraphs on the technical field, the summary of the invention, and the extensions, as well as in the following paragraphs on the embodiments, can be combined in any manner to constitute other advantageous extensions of the invention. Attached Figure Description
[0024] The accompanying drawings illustrate preferred embodiments of the invention and its extensions. Corresponding features are indicated by the same reference numerals in the drawings. For clarity, repeated reference numerals are omitted from the drawings.
[0025] Figure 1 A preferred embodiment of the device / machine according to the invention is shown from the side.
[0026] Figure 2 A preferred embodiment of the device / machine according to the present invention is shown above. Detailed Implementation
[0027] Figure 1 and Figure 2 The device 1 according to the invention is schematically shown for conveying (e.g., for stacking sheets of printing material) a tray 2, particularly for conveying empty trays, i.e. unloaded trays (empty trays). Figure 1 The device is shown from the side. Figure 2 The same device is shown above.
[0028] The device 1 includes a conveying section 3 for the bracket 2. The conveying section 3 is arranged at least in sections or entirely in a horizontal plane 4 (in Figure 1 The image is shown as a dashed line, for example, the hall floor 4. The transport path 3 may include multiple transport elements 7 for the brackets 2. These transport elements 7, such as FTF (Fahrerlose Transport Systeme), may move along the transport path 3 together with the brackets 2 (preferably each bracket 2 is on a movable transport element 7); alternatively, the transport elements 7 may be fixed in place (e.g., rollers), and the brackets 2 may be movable via the transport elements 7.
[0029] The conveying section 3 may include a so-called pusher (slider) that causes the brackets 2 to move individually from the conveying element 7 onto the travel device 11 of the device 1 and / or from the travel device 11 onto the conveying element 7. The pusher may include a driver and a controller.
[0030] The device 1 includes a storage unit 10 (particularly a vertical storage unit). The storage unit 10 further includes the travel device 11, its driver 12, and its controller 13, the driver 12 and the controller 13 being used to raise and lower the travel device 11 (see vertical double arrow 14). The vertical storage unit can receive multiple trays 2 and store them in the vertical direction, preferably stacked on top of each other (i.e., one tray on one tray).
[0031] The storage container 10 may be arranged in a recess 5 (preferably located in the hall floor 4). In this case, the storage container 10 may constitute an underground storage container 10.
[0032] exist Figure 1 The image shows a graphic industrial machine 20, particularly a printing press (see dashed line). This machine may include a passageway 21 for operator use.
[0033] from Figure 1 As can be seen, the device 1 according to the invention includes a storage unit 10 for the bracket 2 such that the storage unit 10 receives a plurality of empty brackets arranged vertically to each other, and the storage unit 10 is substantially arranged below the horizontal plane 4.
