Title: Method and device for inserting flat articles into printed products
Inventor: MAEDER CARL CONRAD
IPC: B65H5/30
Filed: 2005-10-10
Abstract: Flat articles are inserted into printed products (3), which, while being held at their folding or bundling edges, are continuously conveyed by grippers (11) of a gripper conveyor (1) while the grippers (11) are guided around a return element of the gripper conveyor (1). In the return element, the grippers (11) move from below to above while going around an essentially horizontal return element axis (2). Pinching elements (4), which are situated on both sides of the return element, are, in pairs, axially oriented toward one another while being interspaced, and which are located at a radial distance from the grippers, rotate about the return element axis (2) while being synchronized with the grippers. The printed products (3) are conveyed while being suspended into the return element and are immediately opened before the grippers (11) enter the return element. The pinching elements (4) are, when the grippers (11) enter the return element, activated in such a manner that they, while pinching together, grasp the trailing part (32) of an opened printed product (3) and the forward part (31) of the following product at the corner areas opposite the folding or bundling edges, and then hold until the grippers (11) exit the return element. During the activated phase of the pinching elements (4), the flat articles are inserted into the printed products (3), and the grippers (11) are opened and closed again in order to grasp, together with the printed products (3), the inserted articles. The pinching elements (4) are mounted on spoked wheels actively connected to the return element and can be adapted in the simplest possible manner to different formats of printed products (3) or can be placed in an inoperative state. The gripper conveyor (1) can be a conventional gripper conveyor that has a gripper interval (A) that is too small for inserting on a straight conveying line.
