Abstract
A paper feeding/piling apparatus for a sheet-fed press includes a fork reciprocating unit, a fork unit lifting unit, and a piling/conveying unit. The fork reciprocating unit includes a fork support table supported between a pair of vertically movable right and left guide rails horizontally extending between the pile table and the auxiliary pile unit and reciprocated back and forth, and a plurality of forks supported by the fork support table and fitted in or removed from grooves of the pile board at an upper position upon reciprocal movement of the fork support table. The fork reciprocating unit has forward and backward limit positions detected by detectors. The fork unit lifting unit includes a guide rail drive unit, supported on apparatus frames, for vertically driving the guide rails, and detectors for regulating upper and lower limit positions of the guide rails. The piling/conveying unit includes a truck for mounting the pile board on which the next sheets are piled, and a truck drive unit for reciprocally driving the truck between the auxiliary pile position and the pile table. The piling/conveying unit has forward and backward limit positions regulated by detectors.
