Patent number: 6951172Abstract: A printing unit configuration includes an accessory and a connection mechanism moveably fastening the accessory thereto, throwing the accessory thereon into a working position, and removing it therefrom into maintenance positions. A linear guide can be connected to the accessory and disposed perpendicular to a pivot axis, with the mechanism pivoting the accessory away from the unit about the axis and displacing it along the guide. The mechanism can have two pivot axes disposed parallel to the unit rotation axis and can pivot the accessory away from the unit first about the first axis then about the second. The mechanism can pivot the accessory about an axis perpendicular to the unit rotation axis and/or about a single pivot axis disposed below the accessory. The mechanism can connect the accessory to the unit to project into a recess of a side wall of the printing machine at a side opposite an operator side in a maintenance position.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2001Date of Patent: October 4, 2005Assignee: Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AGInventors: Andreas Detmers, Arno Jünger, Jürgen Kreutzkämper, Sven Mader, Christian Meier, Gotthard Schmid

Patent number: 6810809Abstract: A method for driving a printing press includes driving, in a printing operation, via a gear train by at least a first motor, at least one drum for advancing printing material and a printing-form cylinder, processing angle-of-rotation signals of the drum in a control device for controlling the driving of the drum and the form cylinder, and driving, in a printing-form production operation in the printing press, a printing-form cylinder by a separate motor. The method further includes, in an operation for producing the printing form, synchronously actuating the first motor and the separate motor by providing a gear allocated to the driving of the printing-form cylinder, and an adjacent gear allocated to the driving of the drum of the gear train, the gears being disposed relative to one another at the most out of contact with one another, and at the least barely in engagement with one another so as to exert a slight pressure on one another, and a device for performing the method.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2003Date of Patent: November 2, 2004Assignee: Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AGInventors: Andreas Detmers, Arno Jünger, Jürgen Kreutzkämper, Sven Mader, Christian Meier

Patent number: 6557472Abstract: An apparatus is provided for guiding a print carrier upon feeding the print carrier to and guiding the print carrier away from a form cylinder of a rotary printing machine. Guide elements for the print carrier are disposed axially parallel to the form cylinder. The guide elements are disposed in two groups. One group serves to pull the print carrier into the printing unit, while the other group assists in the removal of the print carrier from the printing unit of the rotary printing machine. The guide elements assisting the feeding-in and exchanging of the print carrier are protected against contact with the print carrier by throw-on elements during exchange of a print carrier. A printing unit in a rotary printing machine having the apparatus is also provided.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2001Date of Patent: May 6, 2003Assignee: Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AGInventors: Andreas Detmers, Rene Güldenberg, Arno Jünger, Jürgen Kreutzkämper, Sven Mader, Christian Meier

Publication number: 20030041756Abstract: A rotary printing press includes at least one form cylinder, a transmitting gear via which the form cylinder is drivable together with at least another cylinder during a printing operation, and a device for setting an image on a printing form disposed on the form cylinder. A freewheeling clutch is disposed, during the printing operation, between the form cylinder and the gear for driving the form cylinder. A separate drive is provided for driving the form cylinder during an image setting operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2002Publication date: March 6, 2003Inventors: Andreas Detmers, Arno Junger, Jurgen Kreutzkamper, Sven Mader, Christian Meier
