Abstract
Abstract A device for handling piles or bundles of newspaper-type printed matter which are packed on high-speed automatic transfer packing lines comprises two carriages mounted on horizontal parallel ways with a possibility of reciprocating therealong in mutually opposite directions. Each carriage mounts columns carrying an openable frame and capable of vertically traversing for the frame to be placed onto the pile and removed therefrom in the course of its packing.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
205 words
A device for handling piles or bundles of newspaper type printed matter in the process of their packing, in which in one working position, the pile is wrapped into a packing material and in a second working position, the butt ends of the piles are arrested, said device comprising horizontal parallel guide ways: two carriages, each carriage being mounted on said guide ways and adapted to reciprocate in said guide ways to be capable of moving simultaneously and parallel in mutually opposite directions and stopping alternately in the same working positions; means for imparting simultaneous motion in said mutually opposite directions; columns located on each of said carriages, arranged vertically and capable of moving along a vertical plane; means for synchronous motion of said columns along the vertical plane in the opposite directions in said working positions; two openable frames, each frame being rigidly secured on the corresponding columns and said columns lowering the frame, which is in one working position, and, concurrently raising the frame, which is in the other working position, for gripping and releasing the piles respectively so that for changing the working positions during the motion of the carriages in the mutually opposite directions, the frames pass one above the other.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
205 words
A device for handling piles or bundles of newspaper type printed matter in the process of their packing, in which in one working position, the pile is wrapped into a packing material and in a second working position, the butt ends of the piles are arrested, said device comprising horizontal parallel guide ways: two carriages, each carriage being mounted on said guide ways and adapted to reciprocate in said guide ways to be capable of moving simultaneously and parallel in mutually opposite directions and stopping alternately in the same working positions; means for imparting simultaneous motion in said mutually opposite directions; columns located on each of said carriages, arranged vertically and capable of moving along a vertical plane; means for synchronous motion of said columns along the vertical plane in the opposite directions in said working positions; two openable frames, each frame being rigidly secured on the corresponding columns and said columns lowering the frame, which is in one working position, and, concurrently raising the frame, which is in the other working position, for gripping and releasing the piles respectively so that for changing the working positions during the motion of the carriages in the mutually opposite directions, the frames pass one above the other.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
118 words
The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of said carriages has a recess and a gear, across-tie, said columns of each of said openable frames being interconnected through the cross-tie, a rack bar being fixed to said cross-tie and passing through said recess, said rack bar being arranged parallel to said columns and adapted to interact with said gear so as to impart vertical reciprocations to said columns; a shaft, each of said gears being set on a shaft and adapted to slide therealong as a result of motion of said columns; each of said shafts being positioned parallel to said guide ways and adapted to rotate in synchronism with each other in the same direction.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
69 words
The device as claimed in claim 1, including a gear rack, each of said carriages mounts the gear rack arranged parallel to said guide ways; a drive shaft, a gear interposed between said gear racks and set on a drive shaft so as to interact with said gear racks to impart reciprocations to each of said carriages together with said openable frame fRom one pile packing station to another.
