In a counter stacker for stacking and dividing every predetermined number of printed copies including a counter disposed on a first path of convey along which said copies are successively conveyed partially superimposed one on the other at a constant pitch of superimposing, a first dividing plate disposed on said path and adapted to be inserted between said copies, the above mentioned system has an odd copies dividing and delivering mechanism including a second dividing plate located at the same position with the first dividing plate or at least at a downstream side position of the first dividing plate and a second path only for odd copies and shunting from said first path at said second dividing plate. The system further has means for actuating the first dividing plate in accordance with a sum of the standard number S of fixed copies and a number F of odd copies which is coded on a label to be attached to a bundle of odd copies, the means being adapted to actuate, only when the number F in not equal to zero, the second dividing plate when the standard number S has been counted, and means incorporating a folding device disposed on the path of odd copies and adapted to actuate the device only when the height of stacking of the odd copies is smaller than a threshold, to fold the copies across a longitudinal center to impart a sufficient strength to the later.

Odd copies bundling system in connection with fixed copies auto-bundling

A fixed guide plate is disposed on one side along a paper passage before and after turning bars, and a circulating running belt is disposed on the other side along said paper passage, so that the front end of running paper is fed in the state gripped therebetween; in each turning bar, the end portion of said guide plate is curved along the peripheral face of the turning bar with a clearance corresponding to the paper thickness, so that the front end of running paper is guided by said curved portion; and an endless belt from which a sticking plate projects toward the paper running passage is made to stand by at the point where the front end of running paper separates from the final turning bar, so that the top of running paper is stuck to the sticking plate of the endless belt and withdrawn from the turning bar mechanism; or, in each turning bar, flanged pins are planted on the side face of the circulating running belt, and a female type rail curved along the peripheral face of the turning bar with a clearance corresponding to the paper thickness is supported at the top end of an arm, so that while the flanged pins are hung down and slidingly guided in succession by said female type rail, the course of said circulating running belt is turned by 90.degree. along the peripheral face of the turning bar and the front end of running paper is advanced with said circulating running belt and is turned around the turning bar.

Automatic paper-passing apparatus in turning bars in rotary press

An upright conveyor belt is made to run only at one side of the row of papers. A section plate is operatively arranged to be inserted into the line of the conveyor, for retaining subsequent papers within the row. A blade is adapted to be moved across the line of the conveyor so as to sample a predetermined number of papers out of the row. A feeler for detecting the leading end of the earliest subsequent paper is provided at a position spaced downwardly from the location of the blade insertion. The blade can be timely actuated by the signal from a limit switch provided at the base of the feeler. A fork is provided at the side of the row of the papers so as to interrupt the line to eject the subsequent papers along the fork.

Sampling apparatus of printed papers from conveyor line thereof

A double truck mechanism consists of a first truck adapted to move along first rails extending parallel to a reel shaft and support a new web loaded on it and a second truck adapted to move along second rails extending right beneath and at right angles to the reel shaft and the first rails and support the first truck brought and loaded onto it, the second truck being provided with a main lifter for lifting and lowering the loaded first truck, the mechanism includes a pair of web core collecting mechanisms on the second truck and mechanism for mounting and demounting the web core and a sequential control mechanism for controlling one cycle operation of the individual mechanisms.
