Auch bei der Herstellung hochwertiger Druckprodukte für die Verpackungsindustrie, beispielsweise Faltschachteln, werden zunächst Bögen breitbahnig in einer Druckmaschine bedruckt. Auf den Bögen sind jeweils mehrere Nutzen der herzustellenden Faltschachtel aufgedruckt, die dann in einer Stanze ausgestanzt werden. Die ausgestanzten Faltschachtelzuschnitte werden anschließend einer Faltschachtelklebemaschine zugeführt und hier zu Faltschachteln verarbeitet.Also in the production of high-quality printed products for the packaging industry, such as folding cartons, sheets are first broad-web printed in a printing press. On the sheets are each several benefits of the carton to be printed, which are then punched out in a punch. The punched-out folding box blanks are then fed to a folding box gluing machine and processed here into folding boxes.

Faltschachtelklebemaschinen zur Herstellung von Faltschachteln aus Faltschachtelzuschnitten weisen bekanntermaßen zumindest die folgenden Module als Bearbeitungsstationen auf:

  • Einen Einleger, der die zu verarbeitenden Zuschnitte mit hoher Geschwindigkeit aus einem Stapel nacheinander abzieht und einzeln der nachfolgenden ersten Bearbeitungsstation zuführt,
  • Ein Auftragwerk für Klebstoff, üblicherweise Leim, das auf die zu verklebenden Faltlappen einen Klebstoffstreifen aufträgt und
  • Eine Faltstation, in der die mit einem Klebestreifen versehenen Zuschnittteile zur Herstellung einer Klebeverbindung um 180° umgelegt, also gefaltet werden.
  • Im Anschluss an die Faltstation ist üblicherweise eine sogenannte Überleitstation angeordnet, in der die Schachteln gezählt, markiert und - falls schadhaft - ausgeschleust werden können.
  • Danach folgt eine Pressstation, an deren Anfang ein Schuppenstrom aus gefalteten zuschnitten gebildet wird, der in der Pressstation für einige Zeit unter Druck gehalten wird, damit die beiden Zuschnitte an der Klebenaht verbunden werden.
  • Danach folgt eine Pressstation, an deren Anfang ein Schuppenstrom aus gefalteten Zuschnitten gebildet wird, der in der Pressstation für einige Zeit unter Druck gehalten wird, damit die beiden Zuschnitte an der Klebenaht verbunden werden.
Folding box gluing machines for the production of folding boxes from folding box blanks are known to have at least the following modules as processing stations:
  • A feeder, which pulls the blanks to be processed at high speed from a stack one after the other and feeds them individually to the subsequent first processing station,
  • An applicator for glue, usually glue, which applies an adhesive strip to the folding flaps to be glued and
  • A folding station in which the blank parts provided with an adhesive strip are folded by 180 °, ie folded, to produce an adhesive bond.
  • Following the folding station usually a so-called transfer station is arranged, in which the boxes can be counted, marked and - if defective - can be discharged.
  • This is followed by a pressing station, at the beginning of which a shingled stream of folded blanks is formed, which is held in the pressing station for some time under pressure, so that the two blanks are connected to the adhesive seam.
  • This is followed by a pressing station, at the beginning of which a shingled flow of folded blanks is formed, which is held in the pressing station for some time under pressure, so that the two blanks are connected to the adhesive seam.

Darüber hinaus weisen Faltschachtelklebemaschinen optional Module zur Rillung, Stanzung und Prägung, beispielsweise zur Prägung von Braille-Schriften in Pharmaverpackungen, auf.In addition, folding box gluing machines optionally have modules for scoring, punching and embossing, for example for embossing Braille fonts in pharmaceutical packaging.

Die einzelnen Bearbeitungsstationen weisen zum Transport der Faltschachtelzuschnitte angetriebene Fördermittel auf. Diese bestehen beispielsweise aus jeweils einem an der Seite der Maschine angeordneten oberen und unteren Förderriemen, wobei der untere Förderriemen in einer Rollenwange und der obere Förderriemen in einer Rollschiene geführt ist. Die Förderriemen sind querverstellbar angeordnet und können somit auf das jeweilige Faltschachtelzuschnittformat eingestellt werden. Die Zuschnitte werden mit der bedruckten Seite nach unten zwischen dem oberen und unteren Förderriemen transportiert.The individual processing stations have conveying means driven for transporting the folding box blanks. These consist, for example, each one arranged on the side of the machine upper and lower conveyor belt, the lower conveyor belt is guided in a roller cheek and the upper conveyor belt in a roller rail. The conveyor belts are arranged transversely adjustable and can thus be adjusted to the respective folding carton blank format. The blanks are transported printed side down between the top and bottom conveyor belts.

Aus der DE 10 2004 022 344 A1 ist beispielsweise eine solche Faltschachtelklebemaschine bekannt.From the DE 10 2004 022 344 A1 For example, such a folding box gluing machine is known.

Weiterhin ist aus der EP 1 920 911 A1 eine Faltschachtelklebemaschine mit einem Modul zur Prägung von Brailleschrift bekannt.Furthermore, from the EP 1 920 911 A1 a Faltschachtelklebemaschine with a module for embossing Braille.

Bei den bekannten Modulen ist eine Anpassung des Werkzeugs an das jeweilige zu bearbeitende Bogenformat oder der Wechsel von Werkzeugen sehr aufwendig.In the known modules an adaptation of the tool to the respective sheet format to be processed or the change of tools is very expensive.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist deshalb eine Vorrichtung zu schaffen, bei der die Werkzeugeinheiten einfach an das jeweilige Bogenformat als auch an die jeweils durchzuführende Bearbeitung einfach angepasst bzw. gewechselt werden können.The object of the present invention is therefore to provide a device in which the tool units can be easily adapted or changed simply to the respective sheet format as well as to the respective processing to be performed.

Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale der Ansprüche 1 bis 11.This object is achieved by the characterizing features of claims 1 to 11.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der vorliegende Offenbarung weist die Vorrichtung zum Bearbeiten von flachem, bogenförmigen Material eine rechte und linke Gestellwand auf, die über Quertraversen miteinander verbunden sind. Die Vorrichtung weist weiter eine untere und obere Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtung für eine untere und obere Werkzeugeinheit auf. Die Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtungen weisen jeweils rechte und linke Seitenwände, obere und untere Quertraversen und Antriebswellen auf. Die untere Quertraverse ist an den Gestellwänden befestigt und die untere Antriebswelle in den Seitenwänden der unteren Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtung. Die obere Quertraverse und die obere Antriebswelle in den Seitenwänden der oberen Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtung. Die Quertraversen weisen erfindungsgemäß ein Profil auf, welches geeignet ist, die beim Bearbeiten des Zuschnitts, beispielsweise beim Prägen, entstehenden Kräfte quer, in und senkrecht zur Zuschnittlaufrichtung aufzunehmen. Die von den Quertraversen aufgenommenen Kräfte werden hierbei vorteilhafter Weise über die Gestell- und Seitenwände abgeleitet. Hierdurch ist es möglich, die Antriebswellen 28, 29 in ihrem Durchmesser geringer zu dimensionieren und so die bewegten Massen gering zu halten. Die obere und untere Werkzeugeinheit sind über obere und untere Werkzeugführungselemente gleitend auf den Quertraversen seitlich verstellbar. Hierdurch ist es vorteilhafterweise möglich, auf einfache Art und Weise das Werkzeug auf jede beliebige Position des Bogens zu positionieren und/oder beliebig viele Werkzeuge auf der Antriebswelle zu positionieren. Weiterhin werden auftretende Kräfte, beispielsweise Prägekräfte, in der Quertraverse abgefangen. Deshalb wird die Antriebswelle relativ dünn ausgeführt, da sie lediglich die Antriebskräfte übertragen muss. Weiterhin bietet diese Ausführung den Vorteil, dass unterschiedlich breite Werkzeuge einfach eingesetzt werden können.In a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for processing flat, arcuate material has right and left frame walls which are connected to each other by crossbeams. The apparatus further comprises a lower and upper tool receiving device for a lower and upper tool unit. The tool receiving devices each have right and left side walls, upper and lower cross members, and drive shafts. The lower crossbeam is attached to the frame walls and the lower drive shaft in the side walls of the lower tool receiving device. The upper cross-beam and the upper drive shaft in the side walls of the upper tool receiving device. According to the invention, the cross members have a profile which is suitable for receiving the forces arising transversely, in and perpendicular to the direction of cut during processing of the blank, for example during embossing. The forces absorbed by the crossbeams are thereby advantageously derived via the frame and side walls. This makes it possible to dimension the drive shafts 28, 29 smaller in diameter and thus to keep the moving masses low. The upper and lower tool unit are laterally adjustable via upper and lower tool guide elements sliding on the crossbeams. This makes it advantageously possible to easily position the tool on any position of the sheet and / or to position any number of tools on the drive shaft. Furthermore, occurring forces, such as stamping forces, intercepted in the crossbeam. Therefore, the drive shaft is made relatively thin, since it only has to transmit the driving forces. Furthermore, this design has the advantage that different width tools can be easily used.

Hierdurch wird einerseits ein Werkzeugwechsel vereinfacht und andererseits auch eine Fehlerbeseitigung, beispielsweise beim Doppeleinzug von Bögen, vereinfacht.In a further particularly preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, the upper tool receiving device is pivotable about a frame fixed pivot about the lower tool receiving device. As a result, a tool change is simplified on the one hand and on the other hand, a troubleshooting, for example, when double-feeding sheets, simplified.

In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform gemäß der vorliegenden Offenbarung werden die oberen und unteren Werkzeugeinheiten über pneumatische Spannelemente an beliebiger Stelle auf den Quertraversen fixiert. Auf diese Weise sind die Werkzeugeinheiten einfach und schnell zu fixieren. Als Alternative ist natürlich auch eine Fixierung über Passbolzen und Passnut/- bohrung möglich.In a further advantageous embodiment according to the present disclosure, the upper and lower tool units are fixed at any location on the crossbeams via pneumatic tensioning elements. In this way, the tool units are easy and fast to fix. As an alternative, of course, a fixation on fitting bolts and fitting groove / - bore possible.

In einer weiteren Ausführungsform gemäß der vorliegenden Offenbarung weisen die Werkzeugeinheiten jeweils ein Ober- bzw. Unterwerkzeug auf, die jeweils auf einem Universalaufnahmezylinder befestigt werden. Vorteilhafterweise können so unterschiedliche Bearbeitungswerkzeuge einfach und schnell gegeneinander ausgetauscht werden.In another embodiment according to the present disclosure, the tool units each comprise a top and bottom tool, respectively, mounted on a universal receiving cylinder. Advantageously, such different processing tools can be exchanged easily and quickly against each other.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform gemäß der vorliegenden Offenbarung sind die unteren Seitenwände an den Gestellwänden befestigt, wobei die untere bedienerseitige Seitenwand als entfernbarer Lagerdeckel für die untere Antriebswelle ausgeführt ist. Zusätzlich weist auch die obere bedienerseitige Seitenwand einen entfernbaren Lagerdeckel für die obere Antriebswelle auf.In a particularly preferred embodiment according to the present disclosure, the lower sidewalls are secured to the frame walls with the lower operator side sidewall configured as a removable lower drive shaft bearing cap. In addition, the upper operator-side side wall has a removable bearing cap for the upper drive shaft.

Diese Ausführungsform hat den Vorteil, dass die seitlichen Platten mit Lagerung einfach entfernt werden können. Aufgrund der dann freien Wellenenden ist die Entnahme und das Einsetzen der Werkzeughalter ohne großen Aufwand möglich, was kurze Rüstzeiten zur Folge hat, insbesondere wenn von einem Werkzeugtyp (beispielsweise Werkzeug zum Rillen, Stanzen, Prägen, Schneiden, Perforieren, Fräsen, Aufbringung von Heißfolie usw.) gewechselt werden muss. Weiterhin können die Werkzeugeinheiten auch außerhalb der Maschine mit Werkzeugen bestückt und dann eingesetzt werden, insbesondere wenn mehrere Werkzeugpaare zur Verfügung stehen.This embodiment has the advantage that the side plates with storage can be easily removed. Due to the then free shaft ends, the removal and insertion of the tool holder is easily possible, resulting in short set-up times, especially when of a tool type (for example, tool for grooving, punching, embossing, cutting, perforating, milling, application of hot foil, etc .) must be changed. Furthermore, the tool units can also be equipped with tools outside the machine and then used, in particular if several pairs of tools are available.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform gemäß der vorliegenden Offenbarung sind die oberen und unteren Antriebswellen als Polygonwellen ausgeführt. Diese Ausführung bietet den Vorteil einer besonders leichten Handhabbarkeit beim Werkzeugwechsel. Weiterhin stellt die Form der Antriebswellen sicher, dass das Oberwerkzeug und das Unterwerkzeug immer winkelgenau zueinander rotieren.In a particularly preferred embodiment according to the present disclosure, the upper and lower drive shafts are designed as polygonal shafts. This design offers the advantage of a particularly easy handling when changing tools. Furthermore, the shape of the drive shafts ensures that the upper tool and the lower tool always rotate with angular accuracy to each other.

Um sicherzustellen, dass das Oberwerkzeug auch rotativ zum Unterwerkzeug ausgerichtet ist, ist es beispielsweise sinnvoll, die Werkzeuge mittels Madenschrauben auf der Polygonwelle zu fixieren.To ensure that the upper tool is also rotationally aligned with the lower tool, it is useful, for example, to fix the tools by means of set screws on the polygon shaft.

In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform gemäß der vorliegenden Offenbarung werden die oberen und unteren Antriebswellen von Servomotoren angetrieben.In another preferred embodiment according to the present disclosure, the upper and lower drive shafts are driven by servomotors.

In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform gemäß der vorliegenden Offenbarung weisen die oberen und unteren Werkzeugführungselemente Anschlagbereiche für die pneumatischen Spannelemente auf. Dies ermöglicht ein leichtes, einfaches und genaues Positionieren und Fixieren der Werkzeugeinheiten.In another preferred embodiment according to the present disclosure, the upper and lower tool guide elements have abutment areas for the pneumatic clamping elements. This allows an easy, simple and accurate positioning and fixing of the tool units.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform gemäß der vorliegenden Offenbarung wirken die oberen und unteren Werkzeugeinheiten mit einem Zentrierelement zusammen. Hierdurch kann auf einfache Weise sichergestellt werden, dass die Werkzeugeinheiten synchron verschoben und ausgerichtet werden.In a particularly preferred embodiment according to the present disclosure, the upper and lower tool units cooperate with a centering element. In this way it can be ensured in a simple manner that the tool units are moved and aligned synchronously.

In einer weiteren Ausführungsform gemäß der vorliegenden Offenbarung ist der Abstand der oberen zur unteren Werkzeugeinheit über zwei Pneumatikzylinder variierbar. Dies ermöglicht auf einfache Art und Weise den Einsatz variabler Materialstärken des Bogenmaterials und weiterhin die Möglichkeit variabler Prägetiefen. Damit sind zusätzlich die Werkzeugeinheiten nicht nur hinsichtlich der Arbeitsbreiten, sondern auch hinsichtlich des Werkzeugdurchmessers skalierbar. Darüber hinaus ist der Abstand über eine Feineinstelleinheit einstellbar, so dass die Prägetiefen besonders genau eingestellt werden können.In another embodiment according to the present disclosure, the distance of the upper to the lower tool unit is variable via two pneumatic cylinders. This allows the use of variable material thicknesses of the sheet material in a simple manner and also the possibility of variable embossing depths. In addition, the tool units are scalable not only with regard to the working widths but also with regard to the tool diameter. In addition, the distance via a fine adjustment is adjustable, so that the embossing depths can be set very accurately.

Figur 1 zeigt beispielhaft für eine Weiterverarbeitungsmaschine eine Faltschachtelklebemaschine mit mehreren Bearbeitungsstationen, in denen erfindungsgemäße Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtungen eingesetzt werden können. FIG. 1 shows by way of example for a further processing machine a folding box gluing machine with a plurality of processing stations in which tool receiving devices according to the invention can be used.

Die Faltschachtelklebemaschine beginnt in Figur 1 rechts unten mit einem Einleger 1, der die zu verarbeitenden Zuschnitte mit hoher Geschwindigkeit aus einem Stapel nacheinander abzieht und einzeln der nachfolgenden Bearbeitungsstation zuführt. Im Anschluss an den Einleger 1 folgt eine Ausrichtestation 4, in der die Zuschnitte einzeln gegen einen seitlichen Anschlag ausgerichtet werden. Durch die Ausrichtstation führen quer positionierbare Maschinenkomponenten in Form von zwei Riemenpaaren, die als Fördermittel dienen und über Stellantriebe quer positioniert werden können.The folder gluer starts in FIG. 1 bottom right with an insert 1, which pulls off the blanks to be processed at high speed from a stack one after the other and feeds them individually to the subsequent processing station. Following the insert 1 is followed by an alignment station 4, in which the blanks are individually aligned against a lateral stop. The alignment station is used to guide transversely positionable machine components in the form of two belt pairs, which serve as conveyors and can be transversely positioned via actuators.

Anschließend folgt ein Vorbrecher 6 und ein erstes Faltmodul 7. Sowohl durch den Vorbrecher 6 als auch durch das Faltmodul 7 führen quer positionierbare Maschinenkomponenten in Form von Riemenpaaren als Fördermittel, die abhängig vom Zuschnittstyp mit einem Stellantrieb quer positioniert werden.This is followed by a primary crusher 6 and a first folding module 7. The machine components in the form of belt pairs, which can be positioned transversely in the form of belt pairs, both through the primary shredder 6 and through the folding module 7, are transversely positioned with an actuator depending on the type of blank.

Auf das Faltmodul 7 folgt eine Drehstation 9. Die Drehstation 9 enthält zum Drehen der Zuschnitte um eine senkrechte Achse um 90° zwei parallel nebeneinander angeordnete Förderstrecken, deren Geschwindigkeit getrennt einstellbar ist. Die Zuschnitte liegen auf beiden Förderstrecken auf, so dass sie bei unterschiedlichen Geschwindigkeiten der beiden Förderstrecken gedreht werden. Die beiden Förderstrecken enthalten angetriebene Rollen als Fördermittel.On the folding module 7 follows a turning station 9. The turning station 9 includes for rotating the blanks about a vertical axis by 90 ° two parallel juxtaposed conveyor lines whose speed is adjustable separately. The blanks are on both conveyor lines, so that they are rotated at different speeds of the two conveyor lines. The two conveyor lines contain driven rollers as conveying means.

Im Anschluss an die Drehstation 9 folgt eine weitere Ausrichtestation 10, die in ihrem Aufbau der Ausrichtestation hinter dem Einleger 1 entspricht. Sie enthält somit wiederum quer positionierbare Maschinenkomponenten in Form von Förderriemenpaaren als Fördermittel.Subsequent to the turning station 9 is followed by a further alignment station 10, which corresponds in its construction of the alignment station behind the insert 1. It thus again contains transversely positionable machine components in the form of pairs of conveyor belts as conveying means.

Die nächste Bearbeitungsstation 13 dient dazu, vom Schachteltyp abhängige Bearbeitungsvorgänge durchzuführen; beispielsweise werden weitere Rilllinien vorgebrochen oder Sonderfaltungen durchgeführt. Auch durch die Bearbeitungsstation 13 führen Riemenpaare als Förderelemente, die mit Stellantrieben quer positioniert werden können.The next processing station 13 serves to perform box-type dependent processing operations; For example, further score lines are pre-broken or special folds are performed. Also by the processing station 13 lead belt pairs as conveying elements, which can be positioned transversely with actuators.

Anschließend folgt eine Faltstation 14, in der vorher mit einer Klebenaht versehene Zuschnittteile um 180° umgefaltet werden. Die Faltstation 14 enthält Riemenpaare als Förderelemente und ein Klebstoffauftragwerk, die mittels Stellantrieben in ihre vom Zuschnittstyp abhängige Querposition bewegt werden können. Anschließend folgt eine Überleitstation 15, von der die gefalteten, mit noch nicht abgebundenen Klebenähten versehenen Zuschnitte in allen Teilen exakt ausgerichtet der nachfolgenden Sammel- und Presseinrichtung 16 zugeführt werden. In der Sammel- und Presseinrichtung 16 wird zunächst ein Schuppenstrom aus gefalteten Zuschnitten gebildet, der anschließend zwischen fördernden Pressbändern für einige Zeit unter Druck gehalten wird, damit die Klebenähte abbinden. Die Überleitstation enthält ebenfalls Riemenpaare, die mittels Stellantrieben querverstellt werden können.This is followed by a folding station 14, in which the blank parts previously provided with an adhesive seam are folded over by 180 °. The folding station 14 includes pairs of belts as conveying elements and an adhesive applicator, which can be moved by means of actuators in their dependent of the cutting type transverse position. This is followed by a transfer station 15, from which the folded blanks, provided with not yet set adhesive seams, are exactly aligned in all parts with the subsequent collecting and pressing device 16. In the collecting and pressing device 16, a shingled stream of folded blanks is first formed, which is subsequently held under pressure for some time between conveying press belts, so that the adhesive seams set. The transfer station also contains pairs of belts, which can be transversely adjusted by means of actuators.

Figur 2 zeigt eine erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung. Die Vorrichtung weist eine rechte Gestellwand 20 und eine linke Gestellwand 21 auf, die durch Quertraversen 22, von denen in Figur 2 eine dargestellt ist, miteinander verbunden sind. Auf den Gestellwänden 20, 21 ist die untere Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtung 3 fest verschraubt. Die untere Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtung 3 weist eine untere Quertraverse 24, die zwischen den Gestellwänden 20, 21 verschraubt ist, auf. Weiterhin eine untere Antriebswelle 29, die zwischen einer linken unteren Seitenwand 39 und einer rechten unteren Seitenwand, die als entfernbarer Lagerdeckel 38 angeführt ist, gelagert wird. Die linke untere Seitenwand 39 ist auf der linken Gestellwand 21 befestigt und der untere Lagerdeckel 38 auf der rechten Gestellwand 20. Auf der unteren Antriebswelle 29 ist eine untere Werkzeugeinheit 34 gelagert und über ein unteres Werkzeugführungselement 41, welches sich auf der unteren Quertraverse 24 abstützt, seitlich gleitend mit der unteren Antriebswelle 29 verbunden. Mit Hilfe eines pneumatischen unteren Spannelementes 32 kann die untere Werkzeugeinheit an beliebiger Stelle zwischen den beiden unteren Seitenwänden 38, 39 fixiert werden. Hierzu drückt das pneumatische untere Spannelement gegen den unteren Anschlagbereich 43 (Figur 3) der unteren Werkzeugeinheit 34 und stützt sich gleichzeitig an der unteren Quertraverse 24 ab. Über der unteren Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtung 3 ist eine obere Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtung 2 befestigt. Diese ist um eine gestellfeste Drehachse 37 schwenkbar befestigt. Die obere Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtung 2 weist eine obere Quertraverse 23 und eine obere Antriebswelle 28 auf, die beide zwischen einer linken oberen Seitenwand 26 und einer rechten oberen Seitenwand 25 gelagert bzw. befestigt sind. Die rechte obere Seitenwand weist zur Lagerung der Antriebswelle 28 einen entfernbaren oberen Lagerdeckel 27 auf. Auf der oberen Antriebswelle 28 ist eine obere Werkzeugeinheit 33 gelagert und über ein oberes Werkzeugführungselement 40, welches sich auf der oberen Quertraverse 23 abstützt, seitlich gleitend mit der oberen Antriebswelle 28 verbunden. Die Quertraversen 23, 24 weisen erfindungsgemäß ein Profil auf, welches geeignet ist, die beim Bearbeiten des Zuschnitts, beispielsweise beim Prägen, entstehenden Kräfte quer, in und senkrecht zur Zuschnittlaufrichtung aufzunehmen. Vorzungsweise weist das Profil zumindest ein hohes Widerstandmoment senkrecht zu Zuschnittlaufrichtung auf. Hierdurch wird vorteilhafter Weise sichergestellt, dass die Quertraversen über die gesamte Breite nahezu parallel zueinander sind. Die von den Quertraversen aufgenommenen Kräfte werden hierbei vorteilhafter Weise über die Gestell- und Seitenwände abgeleitet. Hierdurch ist es möglich, die Antriebswellen 28, 29 in ihrem Durchmesser geringer zu dimensionieren und so die bewegten Massen gering zu halten. Mit Hilfe eines oberen pneumatischen Spannelements 31 kann die obere Werkzeugeinheit 33 an beliebiger Stelle zwischen den beiden oberen Seitenwänden 25, 26 fixiert werden. Hierzu drückt das pneumatische obere Spannelement 31 gegen den oberen Anschlagbereich 42 der oberen Werkzeugeinheit 33 (Figur 3) und stützt sich gleichzeitig an der oberen Quertraverse 23 ab. Die beiden Antriebswellen 28, 29 werden jeweils durch einen separaten Servomotor 30 angetrieben. Durch diese Konstruktion nehmen die Quertraversen 23, 24 die eventuell anfallenden hohen Kräfte, beispielsweise die Prägekräfte beim Prägevorgang, auf und die Antriebswellen 28, 29 übertragen lediglich die Drehmomente. Hierdurch werden die rotierenden Massen gering gehalten. Die Schwenkbewegung der oberen Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtung 2 um die gestellfeste Drehachse 37 ist vorteilhaft zur Beseitigung von Doppeleinzügen und bei einem Werkzeugwechsel. Der Abstand der beiden Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtungen 2, 3 zueinander kann über zwei Pneumatikzylinder 35, 36 variiert werden. Diese stützen sich einerseits an den Gestellwänden 20, 21 und andererseits an den oberen Seitenwänden 25, 26 ab. Die Wirkung der Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34 auf das bogenförmige, zu bearbeitende Material 11, 12, welches zwischen den beiden Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34 hindurch transportiert wird, kann so gezielt eingestellt werden. Insbesondere die Umrüstung auf verschiedene Materialstärken ist hierdurch einfach möglich. FIG. 2 shows a device according to the invention. The device comprises a right frame wall 20 and a left frame wall 21, which by transverse members 22, of which in FIG. 2 one is shown interconnected. On the frame walls 20, 21, the lower tool receiving device 3 is firmly screwed. The lower tool receiving device 3 has a lower cross-beam 24, which is screwed between the frame walls 20, 21, on. Further, a lower drive shaft 29, which is between a left lower side wall 39 and a lower right side wall, which is listed as a removable bearing cap 38 is stored. The lower left side wall 39 is mounted on the left frame wall 21 and the lower bearing cap 38 on the right frame wall 20. On the lower drive shaft 29, a lower tool unit 34 is mounted and via a lower tool guide member 41, which is supported on the lower cross-beam 24, laterally slidably connected to the lower drive shaft 29. With the aid of a pneumatic lower clamping element 32, the lower tool unit can be fixed at any point between the two lower side walls 38, 39. For this purpose, the pneumatic lower clamping element presses against the lower stop area 43 (FIG. FIG. 3 ) of the lower tool unit 34 and is supported at the same time on the lower cross-beam 24. Above the lower tool receiving device 3 is an upper Tool receiving device 2 attached. This is pivotally mounted about a frame-fixed axis of rotation 37. The upper tool receiving device 2 has an upper cross-beam 23 and an upper drive shaft 28, both of which are mounted between a left upper side wall 26 and a right upper side wall 25. The upper right side wall has a removable upper bearing cap 27 for supporting the drive shaft 28. On the upper drive shaft 28, an upper tool unit 33 is mounted and laterally slidably connected to the upper drive shaft 28 via an upper tool guide element 40, which is supported on the upper cross-beam 23. According to the invention, the cross members 23, 24 have a profile which is suitable for receiving the forces arising during processing of the blank, for example during embossing, transversely, in and perpendicular to the cutting direction. For example, the profile has at least a high resistance moment perpendicular to the direction of cutting. As a result, it is advantageously ensured that the transverse members are almost parallel to one another over the entire width. The forces absorbed by the crossbeams are thereby advantageously derived via the frame and side walls. This makes it possible to dimension the drive shafts 28, 29 smaller in diameter and thus to keep the moving masses low. By means of an upper pneumatic tensioning element 31, the upper tool unit 33 can be fixed at any point between the two upper side walls 25, 26. For this purpose, the pneumatic upper clamping element 31 presses against the upper stop area 42 of the upper tool unit 33 (FIG. FIG. 3 ) and at the same time supported on the upper cross-beam 23. The two drive shafts 28, 29 are each driven by a separate servomotor 30. As a result of this construction, the transverse members 23, 24 absorb the possibly occurring high forces, for example the embossing forces during the embossing process, and the drive shafts 28, 29 only transmit the torques. As a result, the rotating masses are kept low. The pivoting movement of the upper tool receiving device 2 about the frame-fixed axis of rotation 37 is advantageous for eliminating Doppeleinzügen and a tool change. The distance between the two tool receiving devices 2, 3 to each other can be varied via two pneumatic cylinders 35, 36. These are based on the one hand on the frame walls 20, 21 and on the other hand on the upper side walls 25, 26 from. The effect of the tool units 33, 34 on the arcuate, to be machined Material 11, 12, which is transported between the two tool units 33, 34, can be adjusted so targeted. In particular, the conversion to different thicknesses is thereby easily possible.

Figur 3a zeigt nun die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung in einer Seitenansicht. Dargestellt ist der linke Teil der Vorrichtung mit den Quertraversen 23, 24, den sich auf diesen abstützenden Werkzeugführungselementen 40, 41 und den Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34. Weiterhin sind die bereits beschriebenen Spannelemente 31, 32 mit den Anschlagbereichen 42, 43 zu erkennen. FIG. 3a now shows the device according to the invention in a side view. Shown is the left part of the device with the crossbeams 23, 24, which are supported on these tool guide elements 40, 41 and the tool units 33, 34. Furthermore, the already described clamping elements 31, 32 with the stop areas 42, 43 can be seen.

In Figur 3b ist die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung in einer Seitenansicht von der gegenüberliegenden Seite mit Feineinstellungsvorrichtung 60 gezeigt. Wie bereits beschrieben, kann der Abstand der beiden Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtung 2, 3 und damit auch der Abstand der Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34 über Pneumatikzylinder 35, 36 eingestellt werden, indem die obere Werkzeugaufnahmevorrichtung 2 um die gestellfeste Drehachse 37 verschwenkt wird. Insbesondere beim Einsatz von Prägewerkzeugen, beispielsweise zum Einprägen von Braillesymbolen in Faltschachteln, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn eine zusätzliche Feineinstellung des Abstandes der Prägewerkzeuge zueinander möglich ist. Hierdurch wird es einerseits möglich, die Prägewerkzeuge genauer auf die Kartondicke einzustellen, zum Anderen kann aber auch die Einprägetiefe in den Karton und damit die saubere Ausbildung der Braillesymbole positiv beeinflusst werden. Wünschenswert ist hier eine Einstellmöglichkeit bis in den 100stel Millimeterbereich. Diese Feineinstellung wird bei der vorliegenden Erfindung dadurch verwirklicht, dass die Feineinstellungsvorrichtung 60 zwei Anschläge 58, 59 aufweist und der Anschlag 59 ortsfest ist und der Anschlag 58 über ein Handrad 56, eine Gewindespindel 57 sowie nicht näher dargestelltes Schneckengetriebe auf den gewünschten Abstand einstellbar ist.In FIG. 3b the device according to the invention is shown in a side view from the opposite side with fine adjustment device 60. As already described, the distance of the two tool receiving device 2, 3 and thus also the distance of the tool units 33, 34 via pneumatic cylinders 35, 36 can be adjusted by the upper tool receiving device 2 is pivoted about the frame fixed axis of rotation 37. In particular, when using embossing tools, for example for embossing Braille symbols in folding boxes, it is advantageous if an additional fine adjustment of the distance of the embossing tools to each other is possible. This makes it possible, on the one hand, to adjust the embossing tools more precisely to the thickness of the carton, but on the other hand, the embossing depth into the carton and thus the clean formation of the braille symbols can be positively influenced. Desirable here is a setting up to the 100ths of a millimeter range. This fine adjustment is realized in the present invention, characterized in that the fine adjustment device 60 has two stops 58, 59 and the stopper 59 is stationary and the stop 58 via a handwheel 56, a threaded spindle 57 and unspecified worm gear to the desired distance is adjustable.

In Figur 4 ist die Sicherheitseinrichtung zu erkennen. Die Sicherungseinrichtung besteht aus einem nicht näher dargestellten Schutzblech sowie Lichtschranken 44, die ein Sicherheitslichtgitter bilden. Auf diese Weise werden die Werkzeugeinheiten gegen unbefugte Berührung gesichert. Weiterhin sind die Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34 in teildemontiertem Zustand dargestellt, der anhand der Figur 6 noch näher beschrieben wird. Figur 5 zeigt die erfindungsgemäßen Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34 im ausgebauten Zustand zusammen mit den Werkzeugführungselementen 40, 41.In FIG. 4 the safety device can be recognized. The safety device consists of a fender, not shown, and light barriers 44, which form a safety light grid. In this way, the tool units are secured against unauthorized contact. Furthermore, the tool units 33, 34 shown in teildemounted state, based on the FIG. 6 will be described in more detail. FIG. 5 shows the tool units 33, 34 according to the invention in the disassembled state together with the tool guide elements 40, 41.

Figur 6 zeigt die erfindungsgemäßen Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34 im ausgebauten Zustand und teildemontiert. Die obere Werkzeugeinheit 33 weist einen Universalaufnahmezylinder 47 auf, auf dem ein Oberwerkzeug 48 befestigt ist. Geschützt wird die obere Werkzeugeinheit 33 durch einen oberen Schutzkasten 45. FIG. 6 shows the tool units 33, 34 according to the invention in the disassembled state and partially dismantled. The upper tool unit 33 has a universal receiving cylinder 47, on which an upper tool 48 is attached. The upper tool unit 33 is protected by an upper protective box 45.

Die untere Werkzeugeinheit 34 weist ebenso einen Universalaufnahmezylinder 49 mit einem darauf befestigten Unterwerkzeug auf. Geschützt wird die untere Werkzeugeinheit 34 durch einen Schutzkasten 46.The lower tool unit 34 also has a universal receiving cylinder 49 with a lower tool mounted thereon. The lower tool unit 34 is protected by a protective box 46.

Wenn jeweils mehrere Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34 auf den Antriebswellen 28, 29 angeordnet werden, beispielsweise mehrere Prägevorrichtungen 54, 55 für das Einprägen von Braillesymbolen, wie in Fig. 10a dargestellt, kann es vorteilhaft sein, dass die Werkzeuge sowohl hinsichtlich Oberwerkzeug zu Unterwerkzeug als auch die Werkzeugpaare relativ zueinander auf den Wellen in Umfangsrichtung zueinander ausgerichtet werden können. Dies ist beispielsweise dadurch möglich, dass die Werkzeuge 48, 50 auf den Universalaufnahmezylinder 47, 49 in Umfangsrichtung verstellbar befestigbar sind oder dass die Werkzeugeinheiten selbst relativ zu Spannelementen rotativ befestigt werden.If a plurality of tool units 33, 34 are respectively arranged on the drive shafts 28, 29, for example a plurality of embossing devices 54, 55 for embossing braille symbols, as in FIG Fig. 10a illustrated, it may be advantageous that the tools can be aligned relative to each other on the shafts in the circumferential direction to each other both in terms of upper tool to lower tool and the tool pairs. This is possible, for example, in that the tools 48, 50 can be adjustably fastened on the universal receiving cylinders 47, 49 in the circumferential direction or that the tool units themselves are fastened rotatively relative to clamping elements.

Figur 7 zeigt die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung mit entfernten Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34 und entfernten oberen Lagerdeckel 27 und unteren Lagerdeckel 38. In diesem Zustand sind die Antriebswellen 28, 29 frei zugänglich und die Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34 leicht austauschbar. FIG. 7 shows the device according to the invention with removed tool units 33, 34 and removed upper bearing cap 27 and lower bearing cap 38. In this state, the drive shafts 28, 29 are freely accessible and the tool units 33, 34 easily replaceable.

Figur 8a zeigt die Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34 mit dem Zentrierelement 51. Um ein synchrones Verschieben/Ausrichten der beiden Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34 zu gewährleisten, sind diese mittels eines Zentrierelements 51 miteinander gekoppelt. Das Zentrierelement ist derart ausgeführt, dass die Zentrierfunktion zu- und abgeschaltet werden kann, je nachdem ob Bogen durch die Maschine laufen oder nicht. Bei dem Zentrierelement 51 handelt es sich um einen in der oberen Werkzeugeinheit 33 gelagerten Zentrierstift, der manuell nach unten in eine Bohrung in der unteren Werkzeugeinheit 34 abgesenkt wird und damit Oberwerkzeug und Unterwerkzeug fest miteinander verbindet (Fig. 6). FIG. 8a shows the tool units 33, 34 with the centering element 51. To ensure a synchronous displacement / alignment of the two tool units 33, 34, these are coupled to each other by means of a centering element 51. The centering element is designed in such a way that the centering function is switched on and off depending on whether sheets pass through the machine or not. The centering element 51 is a centering pin mounted in the upper tool unit 33, which is lowered manually downwards into a bore in the lower tool unit 34 and thus firmly connects the upper tool and the lower tool ( Fig. 6 ).

Figur 8b zeigt eine erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung mit einer Indexiervorrichtung 61 für die Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34. Wie bereits beschrieben, sind die Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34 auf Antriebswellen 28, 29 gelagert. Diese Antriebwellen 28, 29 können vorteilhafter Weise als Polygonwellen, beispielsweise mit einem Profiltyp, der in Bezug auf seinen Querschnitt an ein Quadrat angenähert ist, ausgebildet sein. Wenn z. B. die Werkzeugeinheiten 33, 34 als Prägewerkzeuge für Braillesymbole ausgebildet sind, ist es wichtig, dass Patrize und Matrize zueinander passend auf den Antriebwellen angeordnet sind. Bei einer Polygonwelle mit einem in etwa quadratischen Querschnitt können die Werkzeuge in vier verschiedenen Stellungen auf die Antriebswelle aufgeschoben werden. Damit die Werkzeuge lagerichtigt aufgeschoben werden, weisen die Antriebswellen jeweils mindestens einen Indexierbolzen 63 auf und die Werkzeugeinheiten eine Indexiernut 62. Auf diese Art wird sichergestellt, dass die Werkzeugeinheiten positionsrichtig aufgeschoben werden. FIG. 8b shows a device according to the invention with an indexing device 61 for the tool units 33, 34. As already described, the tool units 33, 34 are mounted on drive shafts 28, 29. These drive shafts 28, 29 can advantageously be designed as polygonal shafts, for example with a profile type which is approximated to a square in relation to its cross section. If z. B. the tool units 33, 34 are formed as embossing tools for Braille symbols, it is important that the male and female are arranged mutually fitting on the drive shafts. In a polygonal shaft with an approximately square cross section, the tools can be pushed in four different positions on the drive shaft. So that the tools are pushed in the correct position, the drive shafts each have at least one Indexierbolzen 63 and the tool units an indexing groove 62. In this way it is ensured that the tool units are pushed in the correct position.
