Definitions

  • the invention relates to a new device for controlling the cylinders of a printing machine by the OFFSET process.
  • the cylinders having to be obviously synchronized, they generally receive their movements from a single transmission shaft which drives a meshing wheel with a pinion placed on one of the cylinders, for example a plate cylinder, the movement then being transmitted in series from cylinder to cylinder then to the ink rollers, each cylinder being provided at the end of the shaft with a pinion which meshes with the corresponding pinions of the cylinders which surround it.
  • the Blanchet cylinders are generally covered with a covering made up of a rubberized canvas intended to receive the impression in order to transfer it to the paper and having a certain elasticity which allows the application under pressure of the sheet.
  • a covering made up of a rubberized canvas intended to receive the impression in order to transfer it to the paper and having a certain elasticity which allows the application under pressure of the sheet.
  • the latter are provided at their ends with smooth treads which rest on each other and whose diameters are strictly exact so as to roll without slipping.
  • the slight difference in diameter between the Blanchet cylinders and the plate cylinders results in certain disadvantages in the conventional serial transmission mode when one wants to carry out a register adjustment.
  • each Blanchet cylinder can follow the setting of the corresponding plate cylinder independently of the rest of the kinematic chain.
  • Rotary offset printing machines are also known in which the two plate cylinders are driven by pinions with straight teeth forming two kinematic chains placed along two parallel planes on the side of the machine.
  • this known arrangement is only applicable to small installations because the two kinematic chains are driven by toothed wheels of large diameter which mesh with one another.
  • the subject of the invention is a new arrangement of the drive control which is less bulky and less expensive and which also makes it possible to reduce the number of gears and consequently the clearances.
  • the movement is transmitted to the two kinematic chains from two contiguous upstream pinions driven from a common motor shaft and each centered in one of said parallel planes.
  • the two pinions upstream of the drive kinematic chains of the Blanchet cylinders are wedged on the shaft of one of the plate cylinders at one end thereof, the first pinion placed inwards, meshing with a drive pinion of the Blanchet cylinder shaft corresponding to said plate cylinder and the second pinion placed towards the outside being connected by a series of intermediate pinions to an external pinion wedged on the end of the shaft of the second plate cylinder, on which is wedged, inwardly, a second pinion meshing with a drive pinion of the shaft of the second Blanchet cylinder.
  • the drive kinematic chain of the second Blanchet cylinder comprises two intermediate pinions each centered respectively on the shaft of one of the Blanchet cylinders, next to the drive pinion of said Blanchet cylinder, each said intermediate pinions being free to rotate relative to the shaft which carries it.
  • Figure 1 there is shown in front view the drive kinematic chain of a printing machine according to the invention, the set of rollers being shown in Figure 2 in section along the line AA.
  • the set of rollers whose arrangement is not particular to the invention, comprises two blanket cylinders 1 and 2 between which the sheet passes, and whose axes are placed in a plane slightly inclined relative to the horizontal .
  • Each Blanchet cylinder 1 or 2 cooperates with a plate cylinder, respectively 3 and 4.
  • Each plate cylinder 3 or 4 is associated with a chain of ink rollers, respectively 5 and 6, the role of which is to take ink from a trough forming an inkwell and to spread it progressively so as to distribute it evenly over the corresponding plate cylinder.
  • each cylinder and each roller is provided, at one end of the shaft, with a pinion which meshes with the corresponding pinions placed at the ends of the shafts of the cylinders or rolls which surround it, each cylinder thus receiving its movement from a neighboring cylinder and transmitting it to a neighboring cylinder (or roller).
  • the invention is characterized by an original arrangement of the drive kinematic chains of the different cylinders which is shown diagrammatically in FIG. 2.
  • Figure 2 is a developed view of a section along the line A-A and that is why the cylinders and the rollers are shown one above the other.
  • the drive shaft 80 drives, via a bevel gear reducer 8, the toothed wheel 81 which sets in motion all of the cylinders and rollers. This movement is transmitted separately to the two Blanchet cylinders by the plate cylinder 3, the shaft 30 of which carries two adjoining toothed wheels 31 and 32 centered in planes P 1 and P 2 and which constitute the pinions upstream of the drive kinematic chains. Blanchet cylinders.
  • these two pinions can have a width of teeth smaller than that of the wheel 32 placed towards the outside, at the end of the shaft 30 and which directly receives the movement of the drive wheel 7 and transmits it to the second blanket cylinder 2 via a second kinematic chain.
  • the Blanchet cylinder 2 carries, wedged on its shaft 20, a wheel 21 which meshes with a toothed wheel 41 wedged on the shaft of the plate cylinder 4. These two wheels are centered in a plane P 3 offset by relative to the plane P 1 , preferably on the side of the cylinders, so as to allow the rotation of the two wheels 11 and 21.
  • the axis 40 of the plate cylinder 4 carries a second outer wheel 42 wedged at the end of the shaft next to it of the inner wheel 41 and centered in the same plane P z as the wheel 32 wedged on the shaft of the cylinder 3 and meshing with the driving wheel 7.
  • FIG. 3 shows in more detail the method of mounting the drive wheels for the Blanchet cylinders and the plate cylinders.
  • the different shafts 10, 20, 30, 40 of the cylinders are carried at their ends by bearings 13, 2, 33, 43 mounted on the frame B of the machine.
  • the treads for example 100 and 200 which rest on each other so as to maintain the center distance of the cylinders.
  • the wheel 31 is centered on the sleeve 34 and secured in rotation with the latter.
  • the wheel 32 is provided with an extension 320 which is adjusted to a centering surface 340 formed on the outside of the sleeve 34 and it is slidably mounted on said surface so as to be able to move axially over a small distance.
  • This axial displacement is determined, in known manner, by an adjustment rod 7 passing through an axial bore formed in the shaft 3 and provided on the side of the mechanism with a head 70 for fixing to the extension 320 of the pinion 32 and to its other end, on the operating side, of a conventional adjustment button not shown.
  • the pinion 32 is secured in rotation with the sleeve 34 by means of straight grooves 321.
  • the pinion 32 meshes with the drive wheel 81 and the intermediate pinion 12 by means of helical teeth. Consequently, the axial displacement of the pinion 32 controls, by pressing on the wheel 81, a slight rotation of the pinion 32 and of its axis 30.
  • This arrangement allows the register adjustment of the plate cylinder 3 Thanks to the meshing of the toothed wheels 11 and 31, this slight rotation of the plate cylinder 3 is transmitted to the corresponding blanket cylinder 1, which in particular makes it possible to maintain the coincidence of the hooking grooves of the linings of the cylinders.
  • the damper adjustment of the plate cylinder 3 has no no consequence on the other Blanchet 2 cylinder.
  • the pinions are mounted on the shafts of the other cylinders in a similar manner.
  • the pinion 11 for driving the cylinder 1 is fixed on a sleeve 14 integral in rotation with the shaft 10.
  • the sleeve 14 is provided, towards the outside, with an extension 140 providing a smooth range 141 for centering of the intermediate wheel 12.
  • the wheel 12 is simply adjusted relative to the bearing 140 but is not linked in rotation to the shaft 1.
  • the wheel 12 transmits the movement received from the wheel 32 without influence the rotation of the shaft 1.
  • the other plate cylinder 4 carries at the end of the shaft two inner and outer pinions respectively 41 and 42 mounted in a similar manner to that which has been described for the pinions 31, 32 of the cylinder 3, this d is- position comprising in particular a register adjustment device known per se.
  • the two plate cylinders 3 and 4 are driven in synchronism from the drive wheel 81.
  • each of the plate cylinders 3, 4 drives the Blanchet cylinder which corresponds to it respectively 1 and 2, and the register setting of each plate cylinder has an influence only on the corresponding Blanchet cylinder.
  • each Blanchet cylinder remains completely independent of the plate cylinder which does not correspond to it.
  • the arrangement according to the invention it is therefore possible, by means of a simple and space-saving device to individually adjust the register of each plate cylinder without interference on the Blanchet cylinder which does not correspond to it.
  • each of the plate cylinders 3 or 4 is associated with a set of ink rollers 5 or 6 which are driven from the corresponding plate cylinder by means of a clutch.
  • each of the plate cylinders constitutes the driving element for all the elements associated with it, the two plate cylinders being driven from the same driving shaft.
