摘要: A platen structure to facilitate the transport of stacked sheet material conveyed along a transport deck of a sheet feeing apparatus. The platen structure comprises first and second segments connected by means of a compliant coupling. The first segment of the platen is operative to engage a face of the stacked sheet material and apply a stabilizing normal force thereon. The second segment of the platen is operative to engage and travel synchronously with a moving surface of the transport deck. Furthermore, the first and second segments are connected by means of a compliant coupling which is operative to facilitate the relative angular displacement of the first and second segments about at least one axis while maintaining the relative linear displacement therebetween about at least one of the other axes. The platen structure ensures reliable sheet material run-out by compensating for a reduction in sheet material weight as the final or last sheets of the stack are singulated/separated. Furthermore, the compliant coupling enables the various segments of the platen structure to conform to the contour of the stacked sheet material, i.e., a cantilevered delivery profile.

摘要: A cut sheet feeder for feeding stacked sheets of material including a feed support deck defining a planar surface for supporting the stacked sheet material and a transport deck defining an inclined surface relative to the planar surface of the feed support deck. The inclined surface is operative to transport additional sheet material to the feed support deck and produce a cantilevered sheet material delivery profile. Furthermore, a rotating element is employed to engage a surface of the stacked sheet material, and separate a single sheet from other sheet material supported by the feed support deck. The cantilevered delivery profile reduces the weight acting on the stacked material, minimizes the friction developed between individual sheets of material and facilitates separation of the sheets by the rotating element. A platen structure may also be employed to bear against the stacked sheet material to ensure reliable sheet material run out. That is, the platen structure serves to equilibrate or compensate for a lessening of sheet material weight as the final or last sheets of the stack are singulated or separated by the rotating element.

摘要翻译: 一种压板结构,便于运输沿着片材使用装置的运输甲板输送的堆叠片材。 压板结构包括通过柔性联接件连接的第一和第二段。 压盘的第一段可操作以接合堆叠的片材的表面并在其上施加稳定的法向力。 压盘的第二段可操作以与运输甲板的移动表面同步地接合和行进。 此外,第一和第二段通过柔性联接器连接,该联接器可操作以促进第一和第二段围绕至少一个轴线的相对角位移,同时保持其间的至少一个其它轴线之间的相对线性位移 。 压板结构通过补偿堆叠的最终或最后一张单片/分离来补偿片材重量的减少,确保了可靠的片材料排出。 此外,柔性联接使得压板结构的各个部分能够与堆叠的片材的轮廓一致,即悬臂输送轮廓。

摘要翻译: 一种切割片材进给器,用于输送堆叠的材料片材,包括限定用于支撑堆叠的片材的平坦表面的进给支撑平台和限定相对于进给支撑甲板的平坦表面的倾斜表面的运输甲板。 倾斜表面可操作以将附加的片材输送到进给支撑平台并产生悬臂式的片材输送轮廓。 此外,旋转元件用于接合堆叠的片材的表面,并将单个片材与由进给支撑甲板支撑的其他片材分离。 悬臂输送轮廓减小了作用在堆叠材料上的重量,使得在各个材料片之间产生的摩擦力最小化并且有助于通过旋转元件分离片材。 压板结构也可用于承受堆叠的片材,以确保可靠的片材用尽。 也就是说,压板结构用于平衡或补偿当堆叠的最后或最后的片材被旋转元件分离或分离时的片材重量的减轻。
