Patent

CA 2725836

The invention relates to a device and a method for inserting flat objects (5) into a folded printed product (2), wherein the products (2) are held by grippers (12) of a gripper conveyor (10) which opens only briefly for inserting the flat object (5). In order to also stabilize the product in the open state of the gripper (12), according to the invention a support element (22, 22') is provided, which moves between the two product parts (3, 4) before the gripper (12) opens and rests on one of the product parts (3, 4). If the orientations of the support elements (22, 22') and the grippers (12) are selected in a suitable fashion, this will suffice in order to position the product (2) and keep it open such that the flat object (5) can be inserted and the gripper (12) can then be closed again, while clamping the product (2) with the flat object (5) into position. Optionally, further support elements (62, 62', 70) are present, which additionally support the product (2) from the outside, such as the folded edge (6).

L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif utilisés pour insérer des objets (5) plats dans un produit d'impression (2) plié. Selon l'invention, les produits (2) sont maintenus par des pinces (12) de convoyeur à pinces (10), qui ne s'ouvrent que brièvement pour insérer l'objet plat (5). L'invention vise à stabiliser le produit, y compris lorsque la pince (12) est à l'état ouvert. A cet effet, il est prévu un élément d'appui (22, 22') qui s'engage entre les deux parties du produit (3, 4) avant ouverture de la pince (12) et repose sur une des parties du produit (3, 4). Un choix pertinent des orientations des éléments d'appui (22, 22') et des pinces (12) suffit à positionner et à maintenir le produit (2) ouvert, de sorte que l'objet (5) plat peut être inséré et la pince (12) peut ensuite être refermée, de manière à bloquer le produit (2) conjointement avec l'objet (5) plat. D'autres éléments d'appui (62, 62', 70) qui soutiennent en outre le produit (2) depuis l'extérieur, par ex. au niveau de l'arête de pliage (6), sont éventuellement prévus.
