Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of printing equipment, and in particular relates to a book-stitching mechanism that facilitates flat stitching and saddle stitching. Background Technology

[0002] There are two binding methods in the printing and binding of existing books: flat binding and saddle stitching. Flat binding involves aligning the pages and then attaching staples along the side, while saddle stitching involves folding the pages and binding them along the spine, resembling a "riding horse" holding the pages together.

[0003] In existing assembly line equipment for book production, semi-automatic saddle stitching equipment and semi-automatic flat stitching equipment are two different types of equipment. As a result, such enterprises need to purchase two sets of equipment to meet different binding needs, which not only increases the production cost of enterprises, but also increases the floor space required. Therefore, how to integrate the existing semi-automatic saddle stitching equipment and semi-automatic flat stitching equipment into one set of equipment is a technical problem that needs to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model addresses the technical problems existing in the use of existing semi-automatic saddle stitching and semi-automatic flat stitching equipment by proposing a convenient flat stitching and saddle stitching mechanism that is reasonably designed, simple in structure, easy to process, and can effectively integrate flat stitching and saddle stitching.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: This utility model provides a convenient stapler for flat stitching and saddle stitching, including a worktable and a support platform disposed on the worktable. A stapler head is disposed below the support platform. The support platform is trihedral in shape. An mounting plate is also disposed at the bottom of the worktable. The mounting plate is vertically disposed at the bottom of the worktable. A lifting plate is disposed on the mounting plate. The lifting plate is slidably disposed on the mounting plate. A tilting cylinder is disposed on the side of the lifting plate away from the mounting plate. A control board is connected to the power end of the tilting cylinder. A support plate is disposed on the end of the control board away from the tilting cylinder. The support plate is slidably disposed on the control board. The support plate is slidably disposed close to the top of the support platform.

[0006] Preferably, the workbench is also provided with a baffle, which is located on the side of the support platform away from the support plate. The workbench is provided with a fixed plate, and a push cylinder is provided on the fixed plate. The output end of the push cylinder passes through the fixed plate and is connected to the baffle. The baffle is located close to the support platform under the action of the push cylinder.

[0007] Preferably, both the lifting plate and the support plate are slidably mounted using rodless cylinders.

[0008] Preferably, the back of the baffle is also provided with a guide optical axis, and the fixing plate is provided with a linear bearing that cooperates with the guide optical axis.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model provides a convenient bookbinding mechanism for both flat stitching and saddle stitching. By improving the existing semi-automatic saddle stitching equipment, a support plate is used to support the book during binding, thereby achieving flat stitching. The cooperation of the mounting plate, lifting plate, control plate and support plate effectively ensures that the support plate moves away from or closer to the support table, thus enabling the switching between flat stitching and saddle stitching.

[0012] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0013] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0014] Example 1, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, this embodiment aims to provide a mechanism that can integrate flat stitching and saddle stitching, and achieve the two binding methods by switching between them. To this end, the convenient flat stitching and saddle stitching mechanism provided in this embodiment is modified from the platform of the existing semi-automatic saddle stitching equipment. It should be noted that this embodiment only shows the parts of the semi-automatic saddle stitching equipment that are related to the structure of this embodiment and have a convenient display position, and does not mean that the semi-automatic saddle stitching equipment only has these parts.

[0015] In this embodiment, the semi-automatic saddle stitching device includes a workbench 1 and a support platform 2 set on the workbench 1. A binding head 3 is set below the support platform 2. The support platform 2 is trihedral in shape, and the binding platform is on top of the support platform 2.

[0016] Considering that the binding head 3 used for both flat stitching and saddle stitching is the same, only the support platform 2 is horizontal instead of trihedral, the requirement for a flat top can be met by making the support platform 2 a horizontal top surface. Therefore, in this embodiment, a mounting plate 4 is also provided at the bottom of the workbench 1. The mounting plate 4 is vertically set at the bottom of the workbench 1, and a lifting plate 6 is provided on the mounting plate 4. The lifting plate 6 is slidably set on the mounting plate 4, that is, the lifting plate 6 can be raised and lowered on the mounting plate 4.

[0017] A tilting cylinder 7 is installed on the side of the lifting plate 6 away from the mounting plate 4. The power end of the tilting cylinder 7 can achieve a 90° tilt. For this purpose, a control plate 8 is connected to the power end of the tilting cylinder 7. In this way, the control plate 8 can switch between horizontal and vertical states under the action of the tilting cylinder 7.

[0018] Considering that the top of the support platform 2 needs to be level to achieve flatness, a support plate 9 is provided at the end of the control plate 8 away from the tilting cylinder 7. The support plate 9 is slidably mounted on the control plate 8 and can slide close to the top of the support platform 2. In this way, the distance limitation formed by the support platform 2 body can be avoided, thereby achieving top support. In this embodiment, in order to reduce costs, the sliding of the support plate 9 and the lifting plate 6 are both achieved by the rodless cylinder 5. In this way, the rodless cylinder 5 can achieve sliding and also play a role in stabilizing the sliding, avoiding the problem of using a piston cylinder and needing to match the guide rail and slider.

[0019] With the above settings, when flat binding is required, the support plate 9 is raised, flipped, and extended horizontally to the top of the support platform 2 to support the flat-bound books and complete the flat binding. When saddle binding is required, the support plate 9 is returned to its horizontal position, flipped to a vertical position, and then lowered to remove interference with the support platform 2. At the same time, it also avoids other impacts on the staff and makes it convenient to observe the binding status.

[0020] Considering that the support platform 2 for saddle stitching is trihedral, designed to allow books to be bound to rest on it and create a limiting position, further limiting is needed for the flat-stitched books. Therefore, a baffle 10 is installed on the workbench 1, positioned on the side of the support platform 2 away from the support plate 9. A fixing plate 11 is also installed on the workbench 1, and a push cylinder 12 is mounted on the fixing plate 11. The output end of the push cylinder 12 passes through the fixing plate 11 and connects to the baffle 10. The baffle 10 is positioned close to the support platform 2 under the action of the push cylinder 12. This effectively blocks one end of the book, creating a limiting position.

[0021] In this embodiment, to stabilize the movement of the baffle 10, a guide optical axis 13 is provided on the back of the baffle 10, and a linear bearing 14 cooperating with the guide optical axis 13 is provided on the fixing plate 11. Multiple guide optical axes 13 are provided, and a push cylinder 12 is provided between two adjacent guide optical axes 13 to ensure the stability of the push. Of course, multiple rodless cylinders 5 are also provided on the mounting plate 4 and the control plate 8. Similarly, including the flipping cylinder 7, their number is based on ensuring stable flipping and movement.

[0022] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
