    Abstract: A sheet material processing unit (20, 22, 24) comprises a transport system (32) for transporting sheets (12) or parts thereof from a respective input end (20i, 22i, 24i) to a respective output end (20o, 22o, 24o). A gripper unit (46) is releasably coupled to the transport system (32) and is configured for holding at least a part of one of the sheets (12). Additionally, at least one handover mechanism (47d, 47r) is provided being configured for decoupling the gripper unit (46) from the transport system (32) and providing the gripper unit (46) to a neighboring sheet material processing unit (20, 22, 24) and/or receiving a gripper unit (46) from a neighboring sheet material processing unit (20, 22, 24) and coupling the received gripper unit (46) to the corresponding transport system (32). Additionally, a sheet material processing machine (10) is presented which comprises at least two such sheet material processing units (20, 22, 24).

    Abstract: A transport with media hold down is used with an inkjet printer. A plurality of spar links and vacuum links are connected pivotally together to form an endless belt orbiting around drive wheels and driven wheels. Vacuum links have hollow chambers to hold the media sheet against the endless belt using vacuum. At least one spar is received in a slot on a spar link. The spar extends above the link to receive the media sheet. The spar moves into a clamping position by a cam and follower to clamp the media sheet against the spar link. The media sheet will thus pass beneath the inkjet print head without contact. The spar moves into an extended position by the cam and follower to release the media sheet. The spar moves into a retracted position below the spar link surface by the cam and follower to allow the media sheet to exit the transport.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a collating apparatus (90), which includes a conveying track on which, in a closed circuit, a multiplicity of receiving units (13) arranged one after another in the direction of circulation to hold pre-products to be collated circulate, and on which, in at least one collating region (94, 95, 96), a plurality of feed devices are arranged one after another in the direction of circulation, from which pre-products are discharged into the receiving units (13) moving past on the conveying track. In such a collating apparatus, flexible operation is made possible in that the receiving units (13) are conveyed on the conveying track by means of a three-dimensionally flexible, preferably chain-like, conveying element, in that the receiving units (13) in each case have clamping means, which hold the pre-products collated in the receiving units (13) in a clamped manner, and in that at a plurality of points of the conveying track there are arranged transfer devices (91, 92, 93) which transport collated pre-products away from the receiving units (13) for post processing.

    Abstract translation: 本发明涉及一种整理设备(90),其包括输送轨道,在闭合回路中,沿着循环方向一个接一个排列的多个接收单元(13)在其上保持要整理的预制品循环 ,并且在至少一个对照区域(94,95,96)中,多个进料装置沿着循环方向一个接一个地布置,从而从其中将预产物排放到接收单元(13)中移动 过去在传送轨道上。 在这种对照装置中,可以通过三维柔性,优选链状输送元件在接收单元(13)在传送轨迹上传送,因此接收单元(13)可以进行灵活的操作, 在每种情况下都具有夹紧装置,夹紧装置以夹紧的方式保持在接收单元(13)中整理的预制品,并且在传送轨道的多个点处布置有传送装置(91,92,93) 哪些运输已经从接收单元(13)分离的预产品进行后处理。
