Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for forming a banded printed bundle, for example a banded banknote bundle.

[0002]

Japanese Patent Publication No. 60-20246 discloses a method of forming a banknote bundle hung from a flat sheet on which a large number of banknotes are printed.
For example, a band is applied to the central portion of all the banknote bundles.

[0003]

Therefore, since the above-mentioned banded banknote bundles have the same banding position, the thickness of the banding band is accumulated when the banknotes are stacked, and the banknote bundles are bent in a bow shape and the banknotes are bent. When stacking the bundles, or when stacking the bundles to perform packing or the like, a load collapse may occur.
Further, since it is bent, that is, it is not horizontal, there is a problem that it interferes with the work of the post-process performed in a state where the banknote bundles are stacked. These problems are not limited to banknote bundles,
This is caused when forming a bundle for each standard printing from a plurality of standard-printed flat laminated sheets.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a method for forming a banded print bundle that effectively solves the above problems, and as a means therefor, a flat sheet is placed between columns of standard printing. When cutting and performing banding for each standard printing, the band unit flat overlap block of a certain number of rows formed by cutting between the columns is banded at a position shifted to the left from the center of standard printing. The left wrapping and the right wrapping are performed alternately, as in the case where other flat unit blocks with a certain number of columns are sewn at a position shifted to the right from the center of standard printing. Then, after that, the row-unit flat overlapping blocks banded on the left and right sides are cut into small pieces for each standard printing to form a print bundle banded on each position. .

Further, when the row unit flat overlapping blocks formed by cutting the rows are hung, the respective row unit flat overlapping blocks are alternately displaced in the one column end direction and the other column end direction. In the same state, by using a strapping machine installed at a fixed position to strap each block, the left strap and the right strap can be realized according to the shift of the row ends. is there.

[0006]

According to the present invention, a print bundle group which is shifted leftward from the center and a print bundle group which is shifted rightward from the center are obtained, and both are alternately stacked at a constant number of bundles. At this time, the cumulative thickness of the binding band does not concentrate on the poles, but is evenly distributed and accumulated on the left and right sides.

Therefore, it is possible to eliminate the phenomenon that the printed bundle is bent in a bow when stacked, and to stack the printed bundle substantially horizontally.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

On the surface of the sheet 1, regular printings 2 such as banknotes are printed in rows and columns. This sheet 1 is flat-laid in a constant number, and the flat-laid sheet 1A is cut between rows to form a row-unit flat-laid block 1B.

The flat laminated sheet 1A is cut between the rows in the direction orthogonal to the conveying direction, that is, between the rows in the horizontal direction, to form the row unit flat laminated block 1B. Alternatively, although not shown, the flat laminated sheet 1A is cut between rows in the transport direction, that is, between rows in the vertical direction to form the row unit flat overlapping block 1B.

FIGS. 1 and 2 show a case where the flat laminated sheet 1A is cut in rows in the transverse direction by a cutter 3 to form a row unit flat laminated block 1B, which is subjected to the next banding step. The above-mentioned row unit flat overlapping block 1B is hung on a banding machine 4 for parallel feeding, and the preceding row unit flat overlapping block 1B 'is banded at a position leftward from the center of each standard printing 2 To form a line unit flat overlapping block 1C 'which has been banded, and a line unit flat overlapping block 1B "having a certain number of subsequent columns is banded at a position shifted to the right from the center of each standard printing. Row unit flat stack block 1C ″
To form.

The left band hanging and the right band hanging are alternately carried out for each row unit flat overlapping block of a certain number of columns, and subjected to a cutting step for forming a next print bundle.

FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 show a row-unit flat overlapping block 1
It shows a case in which the left and right bands are alternately applied to B for each single column. Without being restricted by this embodiment, it is not hindered that the row unit flat overlapping block 1B is alternately subjected to the left band hanging and the right band hanging in every multiple rows. Reference numeral 5 indicates a binding band used for hanging.

FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 show one method for properly performing the above left and right side strapping by means of a strapping machine 4 installed at a fixed position. This method will be described. Prior to the banding, the row-unit flat overlapping block 1B is formed in a state in which it is alternately displaced by a certain dimension in the direction of one row end and the direction of the other row for every certain number of rows, for example, for every single row as shown To do. A first pusher 6 is provided as a means for forming a state in which the row-unit flat overlapping block 1B is displaced in position.
The one row end of the row-wise flat overlapping block 1B fed in parallel is pressed every single row. As a result, as shown in FIG. 5A, the row-unit flat overlapping block 1B is formed in a state in which the positions are alternately shifted in the one column end direction and the other column end direction for each column.

As shown in FIG. 5B, the present invention includes the case where the above-mentioned row unit flat overlapping block 1B is alternately displaced for every plurality of rows. That is, the row unit flat overlapping block 1B is shown in FIG.
The positions are alternately shifted for each single row as shown in FIGS. 2 and 5A, or the positions are alternately shifted for each multiple rows as shown in FIG. 5B. In this case, the first pusher 6 presses the row-unit flat overlapping blocks every other row or every other row. By the above, the row unit flat overlapping block 1B is formed in a state in which the positions are alternately displaced in the one column end direction and the other column end direction by the fixed size, and in this state, the strapping machine 4 installed in the strapping device 4 is strapped. To serve.

FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 show a row-unit flat overlapping block 1
The case where B is pressed in the direction of one row end in every single row or every other row (only B ″ in FIG. 2 is pressed) to form the above-mentioned alternate positional displacement state is shown. The overlapping block 1B is alternately pressed in the one-row end direction and the other-row end direction for each single row or for every plural rows (both B'and B "in FIG. 2 are pressed in opposite directions), and the above-mentioned misaligned state Including the case of forming.

As described above, the row-unit flat overlapping block 1B is formed in a state in which the positions are alternately shifted in the one-row end direction and the other-row end direction for every certain number of rows, and the fixed positions are arranged in the shifted state. The band is applied by the banding machine 4. As a result, as shown in FIG. 2, the row unit flat overlapping block 1B ′ whose position is shifted in the one-row end direction is banded at a position leftward from the center of each standard printing according to the position deviation. The row-unit flat overlapping block 1B ″, which is relatively shifted in the other column end direction, is banded at a position shifted to the right from the center of each standard printing in accordance with the above-mentioned displacement. In Fig. 2, 1C indicates the above-mentioned band unit flat overlapping block, 1'is displaced to the left and is applied to the block, and 1C "is displaced to the right and applied. Each block is shown. Reference numeral 5 indicates a binding band for hanging.

The above-mentioned row unit flat overlapping block 1C 'which is displaced to the left and banded and the row unit flat overlapping block 1C "which is displaced to the right and banded are sequentially fed in parallel, and in the process, the first The row-unit flat stacked block 1B ″, which is pressed by the pusher 6, that is, 1C ″ is pressed in the opposite direction by the second pusher 7, and each row-unit flat stacked block 1C is already banded.
′, 1C ″ are aligned, and the row-aligned flat overlapping blocks 1C ′, 1C ″ subjected to this alignment are continuously fed in parallel while cutting with the cutter 8 and then the cutter 9
With this, small cuts are made for each standard print 2, and a print bundle 1D for each standard print is formed at each position. The cutters 9 are provided in the number required to simultaneously cut all the standard prints 2 of the row unit flat overlapping block. For example, when there are four standard prints 2 on a row, three cutters 9 are provided, and each block is collectively cut to form four print bundles.

FIG. 4 shows an example of the above band hanging.
The above row unit flat overlapping block 1B is a conveyor pusher 1
0 is kept horizontal and is fed in parallel, while the binding band 5 being fed from the band reel 11 is wound from the front end in the feeding direction, the binding band 5 is cut by the cutter 13 to a predetermined size, and further feeding is held down. The bar 12 is folded up so that the end portions of the binding band 5 are overlapped, and heat-bonded by the heater 14. In this way, the strapping as shown in FIG. 6 is performed.
As the binding band 5, a plastic band having heat-bonding property and heat-shrinking property is used to achieve binding of the printing bundle without loosening.

The above strapping device is an example for understanding the present invention, and various other strapping devices can be applied. In this case, row unit flat overlapping block 1B
Is for parallel feeding while passing through a strapping device,
It is not preferable that the strapping device cannot pass through the block 1B. This is because, when the block cannot be passed, the block 1B must bypass the strapping device and be used for the next cutting step as in the conventional example.

[0021]

According to the present invention, it is possible to appropriately and rationally form a print bundle group that is shifted to the left from the center and a print bundle group that is shifted to the right from the center. When they are stacked alternately, the cumulative thickness of the binding band is not concentrated at the poles but is evenly distributed to the left and right. Therefore, it is possible to eliminate the phenomenon that the print bundle is extremely bulky when stacked, and to stack the print bundle substantially horizontally.

Further, since the print bundles can be stacked horizontally, the work in the next process can be carried out without any trouble. Further, by forming the state that the row-unit flat overlapping blocks fed in parallel are alternately displaced in the direction of one row end and the direction of the other row, and providing them for banding, the above right side band hanging and left band hanging It can be realized easily and surely, and automation and rationalization for the above strapping can be advantageously achieved.
