Handling system

Abstract

A system for the handling of paper products has a cross-stacker, a pressing module and a dispensing module which are arranged along a straight conveying path. A rotation device which permits a rotation of a stack of paper products by 180° is provided.

1 . A system for handling of paper products supply in an overlapping stream, comprising: 
 a cross-stacker for forming a stack of paper products with a plurality of part layers respectively rotated by 180°;    a pressing module adjoining the cross-stacker and comprising a rotation device which permits rotation of the stack by 180°; and    a dispensing module for presentation of the stack,    wherein the cross-stacker, the pressing module and the dispensing module have conveying devices, which convey the stack from the cross-stacker along a straight conveying path up to the presentation.    
     
     
         2 . A system in accordance with  claim 1 , characterized in that the cross-stacker has a conveying device which supplies the overlapping stream in the direction of the straight conveying path.  
     
     
         3 . A system in accordance with  claim 1 , characterized in that the pressing module has an expulsion which extends at right angles to the straight conveying path.  
     
     
         4 . A system in accordance with  claim 1 , characterized in that the pressing module has an electrostatic blocking device.  
     
     
         5 . A system in accordance with  claim 1 , comprising a strapping device in the region of the pressing module or following the pressing module.  
     
     
         6 . A pressing module for a system in accordance with  claim 1 , comprising a pressing device to press the stack in the vertical and/or horizontal direction, wherein the conveying device conveys the stack along the straight conveying path inside the pressing module.  
     
     
         7 . A pressing module in accordance with  claim 6 , comprising an expulsion path which extends at right angles to the straight conveying path.  
     
     
         8 . A pressing module in accordance with  claim 6 , comprising an electrostatic blocking device and/or a strapping device.  
     
     
         9 . A method for handling of paper products supplied in an overlapping stream, comprising the following steps: 
 a) conveying a plurality of products of a product stream of paper products into a cross-stacker and forming a stack including an even number of part layers arranged rotated by 180°;    b) conveying the stack from the cross-stacker into a pressing module and compressing the stack and rotating the stack by 180°; and    c) conveying the stack from the pressing module to a dispensing module and presentation of the stack,    wherein the conveying of the stack from the cross-stacker up to the dispensing module takes place along a straight conveying path.    
     
     
         10 . A method in accordance with  claim 9 , characterized in that the stacker in the pressing module is expelled at right angles to the conveying path in case of malfunction.
