摘要:
A binding machine (100) is proposed. The binding machine includes a feeding station (115,120) for feeding a signature (105) in succession, a binding station (125,135), a binding movable saddle element (140s) for receiving the signature, driving means (145) for maintaining the binding movable saddle element stationary at a binding position for binding the signature to a forming block of signatures (130) in the binding station and for moving the binding movable saddle element between the binding position and a releasing position for releasing the signature being bound to the forming block of signatures, and loading means (140c,150) for loading the signature from the feeding station onto the binding movable saddle element; in the solution according to an embodiment of the invention, the loading means includes a loading movable saddle element (140c) arranged at a side of the binding movable saddle element, the driving means (145) being further adapted to maintain the loading movable saddle element stationary at a loading position for loading the signature from the feeding station and to move the loading movable saddle element integrally with the binding movable saddle element at least in part while the binding movable saddle element moves from the releasing position to the binding position, and transferring means (150) for transferring the signature from the loading movable saddle element to the binding movable saddle element while the binding movable saddle element and the loading movable saddle element move integrally.

An opening station (120) for signatures (110) each having a lip with a first end and a second end comprises means (203, 209-215) for supplying the signatures (110) in succession along a supply axis (206) at a predetermined supply speed, first opening means (218a-218d, 221a-221d) for opening each signature (110) in the middle, in the vicinity of the first end of the lip, and second opening means (254a, 254b) for opening the signature (110) in the middle, along the lip; the opening station (120) includes means (245, 248a, 248b) for moving the second opening means (254a, 254b) transverse the supply axis (206) with a velocity having a component along the supply axis (206) substantially equal to the supply speed, the second opening means (254a, 254b) sliding along the lip of the signature (110) from the first end to the second end.

A cam system (300;400,500) for use in a bookbinding sewing machine (100) is proposed. The cam system includes a follower (315;415;515) for driving at least one member (120-135) of the sewing machine, and control means (305a,305b,335;405a,405b,435;505a,535) for selectively causing the follower to follow a first motion law or a second motion law, the follower driving the at least one member in a first mode or in a second mode when following the first motion law or the second motion law, respectively, wherein the control means includes a first cam (305a;405a;505a) and first biasing means (335;435;535) for biasing the follower in a first direction to couple the follower with the first cam, the follower when coupled with the first cam following the first motion law; the control means further includes second biasing means (335;435;535) for biasing the follower in a second direction to decouple the follower from the first cam, the follower when decoupled from the first cam following the second motion law, and switching means (140) for selectively enabling one of the first biasing means and the second biasing means.
