Definitions
- ABSTRACT The present invention relates to means for automatically, continuously bursting and separating individual items at relatively high speed from a continuous series of items, such for example, as manifolded document forms or cutting from manifolded perforated items to provide clean cut forms.
- the invention employs oppositely disposed, substantially rigid, yet deformable members disposed in confronting arrangement in the path of the items to be separated.
- the deformable members are of differing resiliencies with the upper member being slightly more resilient than the lower member and the lower member including a longitudinally extending discontinuity or channel.
- the two members are movable relative to one another with the items disposed therebetween so as to cause the resilient portion of the upper member to distend slightly into the discontinuity in the lower member stretching the items tautly between the confronting surfaces of the deformable members causing the leading item to be burst apart and separate from the adjacent trailing items.
- the upper member is provided with a cutting or severing element receivable in a cavity in the lower member such that items disposed therebetween have a portion of the area adjacent. to the perforations removed therefrom as the items are fed therebetween at high speed.
- Means adjacent to the deformable members and in the pathway of the items cause the burst item to be rapidly discharged out of the path of the advancing items and into a stacking pocket or hopper or onto a shingling table.
- Such items may also be produced in a continuous, nonperforated form; fan-folded back and forth; or may be rolled items or sheets. Such items are then divided into individual item sheets or documents by means of a cutter penetrator mechanism.
- the known bursting devices employ pairs of rollers operable in surface contact and disposed in the pathway to the advancing items.
- rollers are generally arranged in separated sets or pairs in such manner that the speed differential between the sets or pairs and the fact that the item is gripped between one pair or set causes the items to become stretched therebetween.
- a stress raising element e.g. breaker bar, is projected into the weakened area of the item, causing the individual item to be stripped or burst apart from the continuous series of forms.
- the present invention contemplates, but is obviously not limited to, the use of documents varying in length from 2 5/6 to 24 inches and in width between 6 and 20 inches.
- the paper or item thickness can vary from single ply item onion skin or thinner paper to as many as eight or more ply multipart forms.
- the apparatus is constructed in a modular format.
- the main operational elements of the combination are demountably housed within and operably associated with a base supporting structure enabling efficient, quick, and easy maintenance and avoiding the requirement for highly skilled on-site operator service personnel.
- the present invention overcomes the difficulties of the-prior art and provides a neater, cleaner, quieter, smaller and much more efficiently operating burstingseparating cutting and/or severing apparatus by utilizing a novel and heretofore unknown combination of elements which enable the apparatus to accommodate itself to varying sizes and plies or thicknesses of documents without the need for operator intervention to change or alter the arrangement of the basic bursting mechanism itself.
- upper fixed and lower movable deformable members are constructed so as to provide opposite, confronting, facing surfaces and are arranged to straddle a web of continuous item forms, e.g. checks, which may be fed longitudinally through the apparatus from a supply bin or roll, etc.
- the two members are adapted to be brought into surface contact with the web therebetween and (by means of suitable timing devices) into contact with the line of weakening, e.g. perforations, approximately centrally located relative to the transverse dimension of the two deformable members.
- the line of weakening e.g. perforations
- the two members grip the continuous form item or item stack, as the case may be, tightly therebetween.
- the upper softer more resilient deformable member to be deflected into a cavity in the lower less resilient deformable member so that the adjacent items are stretched apart at the line of weakening, effectively bursting the leading item from the next or trailing item.
- the burst item or items are moved at high speed out of the bursting area onto a shingling table or into a stacking hopper as desired.
- the upper and lower deformable members are first caused to move toward one another so as to grip the item or items therebetween after which, as the items are tautly held at the line of weakening, a cutting or severing assembly is caused to be projected into engagement with the items at the line of weakening, and then is driven on into the cavity in the lower member severing a transverse piece of material from the leading and trailing items.

- FIG. 1 of the drawings there is shown an idealized assembly view of a high speed continuous form item bursting apparatus 10.
- the burster 10 may be part of a modularized signer-protectorburster apparatus such as that described and claimed in copending U.S. Pat. Application U.S. Ser. No. 210,737 filed Dec. 22, 1971, in the names of Richard H. Colwill et al, and titled BURSTING AND SEPARATING AP- PARATUS FOR CONTINUOUS FORMS now U.S. Pat. No. 3,794,228 assigned to the same assignee as the present invention.
- the bursting mechanism 12, hereinafter described in detail is disposed centrally of the main machine assembly 10, as shown.
- An item moving device such as a pin feed tractor mechanism 14 is driven by electric motor 16 through a belt 18 and pin wheel pulleys 20.
- Conically shaped pins 22 are engagable with line holes or perforations 24, FIGS. 5 and 6, located on opposite parallel edges of continuous item forms 26.
- the item forms 26 are generally, although not necessarily, manifolded as shown at 28, FIG. 1, and may be fed vertically upwardly from the supply bin 30 by the pins of the feed tractor 14.
- the continuous forms 26 are adapted to be fed slantingly, vertically, upwardly over smoothing and retarding means such as the arcuately curved guiding member 32 under a smoothing brush assembly 34 into the feed area 36.
- Individual pin feed tractors 14 are arranged on opposite sides of the apparatus. Each edge tractor is adapted for horizontal, slidable movement toward and away from the other tractor along a helically threaded member (not shown) permitting the tractors 14 to be operator-adjusted for varying documents or item width.
- the continuous form 26 is fed by the tractors 14 into the bursting mechanism 12, to be described in detail shortly, and there beyond into the bight of upper and lower ejection rollers 38 and 40, respectively.
- Rollers 38 having resilient peripheral portions, are spring biased so to be engagable with the continuously rotating surface of transverse roller 40.
- the individually burst item hereinafter identified as 42 once separated from the continuous item forms 26, is moved at high speed leftwardly in FIG. 1 in the direction of arrow 44, into a stacker hopper 46 wherein such items are stacked one on top of the other for further handling and processing.
- the burster mechanism 12 due to its unusual and novel structural configuration enables the apparatus either to burst the continuous forms along the perforations therebetween or to provide a clean cut edge adjacent the line of perforations, if desired.
- Upper and a lower hold foot rail members 48 and 50 are provided.
- Upper hold foot rail member 48 is an elongated, transversely disposed, rigid member extending at right angles to the path of movement of the incoming document-item.
- Attached to the lower exposed surface portion of member 48 is a relatively soft resilient member 52 such as rubber, Neoprene or similar material.
- Member 52 may be secured to hold foot member 48 as by gluing, channelling, etc. Both the attachment face as well as the exposed surface of material 52 is substantially flat throughout its transverse extent.
- Lower hold foot member 50 is configured to provide a hollow central chamber 54 of rectangular cross section extending through its length.
- An elongated relatively narrow channel 56 extends parallel to the long dimension of'member 50.
- a bar like plunger member 58 is received in channel 56 and is biased vertically upwardly by means of springs 60 disposed within the chamber opening 54.
- the upper surface of member 50 carries oppositely disposed relatively hard, resilient members 62 arranged in parallel on the upper surface of member 50 so as to straddle channel 56 and the vertical portion of plunger bar 58.
- the height of the bar is calculated so as to permit the upper transverse edge thereof to'extend upwardly between the resilient members 62 such that in the rest position of FIG. I biased by springs 60 the surface of the bar member 58 is contiguous with and forms a common surface with the members 62.
- the lower foot rail member 50 is additionally configured to provide a pair of oppositely disposed, parallel, substantially identical rigid members 64a and 64b extending transversely across the width of the burster assembly.
- the two members 64a and 64b each carry a pair of substantially identical depending follower members 66 located at opposite ends thereof and cooperable with follower rollers or wheels 68 rotatably secured to each member 66 enabling the lower hold foot member to be vertically, slidably movable upon rotation of drive cams 70, as hereinafter described.
- drive motor 72 Disposed below the foot rail assembly is drive motor 72 the output shaft 74 of which is coupled to gear train 76.
- Drive shaft 78 from gear train 76 rotates drive cams 70. It will be immediately apparent that energization of motor 72 from a source of electrical energy will cause the lower foot rail member 50 to move vertically upwardly and downwardly in precise timed relationship.
- the line of weakening or perforations between adjacent continuous form items is automatically disposed centrally beneath the two opposed hold foot members 48 and 50.
- the lower hold foot member moves upwardly in its precise cammed cycle, as seen most clearly in FIGS. 2 and 3 of the drawings, the item is first gripped between the resilient confronting faces or surfaces of the hold feet (FIG. 2). Thereafter as the cycle continues the upper more resilient member is compressed by the lower less resilient hold foot member FIG. 3.
- the adjacent items at the line of perforations are securely clamped therebetween.
- the upper resilient member presses the item or items with it, deflecting the items downwardly into the cavity between the two parallel resilient members of the lower hold foot 50 against the upward bias of the plunger member 58.
- the elastic limit of the line of perforation is reached then exceeded and the two adjacent items are burst apart.
- the plunger 58 in its rest or inoperative position or condition provides a smooth continuous surface in the bursting area so that the continuous items have no tendency to become hung-up" or caught in their passage from the supply bin into the bursting area between the two hold foot members.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 are slightly exaggerated relative to scale.
- the upper resilient member 52 should deflect approximately 0.020 inch into the cavity to break the perforation and burst the items apart.
- the lower hold foot member can be elevated progressively lengthwise by moving this burst member at an angle to the upper foot rail member.
- the resilient members may be tapered or wedge shaped throughout their length depending upon the ultimate desired structural configuration and the type and speed of operation to be employed.
- the present invention permits of minor modification enabling the basic apparatus to function as a die cutting device as will now be described in connection with FIGS. 4, 5 and 6 of the drawings.
- the perforated discontinuous edge remaining after the bursting operation be made regular, even and continuous such for example as where a data processor printer is utilized to produce hard copy correspondence in letter forms.
- the perfed edge would destroy the aesthetically desirable uniform copy edge normally seen with typewriter bond paper.
- the upper hold foot member is shaped to provide an elongated cutting member or blade 82 either integral with or as part of the rigid member 80.
- Oppositely disposed; parallel, resilient members 84 straddle the blade 82 and provide a substantially straight, flat uniform transverse surface adjacent to the blade.
- the depending extent of the members 84, which are secured to the hold foot member 80 in suitable fashion as by gluing for example. are such that the blade 82 is recessed slightly below the exposed surface of the members 84 when in the rest or inoperative condition.
- the lower hold foot member or anvil 86 comprises a substantially U-shaped, elongated. transverse rigid structure, e.g. metal, disposed as is the upper hold foot member, at right angles to the pathway of the continuous item forms.
- the channel 88 formed by the vertical arms of the U is first rectangular in cross section and then wedged shaped as indicated by reference character 90 with the wider portion of the wedge at the bottom interior of the channel as seen in FIGS. 4, 5 and 6 for purposes to be described shortly.
- the upper portion of channel 88 is linear with parallel walls as at 92 to matingly engage the die-cutting member 82 as hereinafter described.
- the lower depending portion of the lower hold foot assembly 86 is provided with oppositely arranged follower members 94 carrying follower rollers 96 rotatably secured thereto.
- Cams 98 secured to shaft 78 rotatably contact rollers 96.
- the follower roller assembly is biased downwardly by means of spring I00 so as to cause the follower rollers to continually engage and track the cams 98.
- the perforated continuous item forms 26 are fed by the tractor mechanism 14 into the cutting area 102 so that the perf line is midway between the side edges of the channel opening 88 as seen in FIG. 4.
- the lower hold foot member 86 moves vertically upwardly to the position of FIG. 5.
- the upper exposesd surface 104 of member 86 engages the lower surface of the item 26 compressing it upwardly against the lower exposed surface 106 of resilient members 84 compressing the latter as indicated by the slight bulge at 108 FIG. 5 and causing the knife blade die 82 to project downwardly forcing the blade to cut the paper and push the cut piece 110 into the cavity or channel opening 88 therebelow as in FIG. 5.
- the burst cut item 26 is thereafter fed at high speed by rollers 38 and 40 to take-up bin. A fresh item is next fed into the die-cutting area.
- FIGS. 7 and 8 of the drawing A simplified but extremely efficient structural arrangement is that illustrated in FIGS. 7 and 8 of the drawing.
- This modified construction can be substituted for that shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 inclusive.
- the upper hold foot member 112 is provided in its modified form with oppositely disposed deformable, resilient members 114-114 secured to the lower planar surface of member 112 and adapted to straddle an elongated penetrator member 116 extending transversely of the burster.
- the lower depending end portion of member 116. is smoothly rounded as at 118, for purposes to be explained presently.
- the lower hold foot member 120 carries on its upper, exposed. flat surface portion oppositely disposed, parallel, resilient members 122 offering relatively more resistance to deformation than the members 114.
- Members 122 are arranged to form an elongated, transverse groove or channel 124 for the reception therein of penetrator member 118, as will now be described.
- the continuous item forms 26' will be positioned first as shown in FIG. 7 with the line of weakening or perforations 126, disposed between the upper and lower hold feet and centrally of the transverse channel 124.
- the two hold feet rises vertically upwardly into engagement with the upper hold foot
- compressing the upper less resilient members 114-114 and causing them to bulge laterally, slightly, as shown in FIG. 8.
- This deformation of members 114 permits the penetrator 118 to extend from between members 114, to force the forms at the line of weakening (i.e. perforations) into the channel 124.
- the force resulting from this compression exceeds the elastic limit of the perforations effectively bursting the leading item from the trailing item form 26.
- the cycle is completed with the lower hold foot member 120 retracting downwardly as earlier described herein, ready for the next item bursting cycle.
- Apparatus for separating continuous multiple item forms into separate and individual items comprising;
- one of said rigid members being movable with respect to the other of said rigid members
- the upper resilient means being solid, flat faced, flexible material
- lower resilient means being formed as two separate, flat faced members with a cavity therebetween, the resilient means of one member being receivable within the cavity formed by the resilient means of the other of said rigid members,
- one of said rigid members includes reciprocable means within said cavity cooperating with said resilient means to form a continuous item form receiving surface.
- one of said resilient members is wedge shaped from end to end.
