Abstract
In some examples, a sheet processing machine includes at least one pile formation device. The at least one pile formation device is arranged in a vertical direction beneath a multiple-up separating mechanism. The at least one pile formation device is arranged so as to be displaceable at least in an inward-moving direction. The at least one pile formation device includes at least one horizontally displaceable pile formation means and a deposit element that can be displaced relative to the at least one pile formation means.

A sheet processing machine (01) comprising:
- a multiple-up separating mechanism (501);
- at least one pile formation device (701), the at least one pile formation device (701) being arranged in a vertical direction (V) beneath the multiple-up separating mechanism (501), the at least one pile formation device (701) being arranged to be displaceable at least in an inward-moving direction (E) toward the multiple up separating mechanism (501), the at least one pile formation device (701) including:
- at least one pile formation means (705) that is horizontally displaceable by at least one first drive (706);
- at least one deposit element (703) that can be displaced relative to the at least one pile formation means (705), wherein the at least one deposit element (703) is configured as at least one at least partially linearly configured transport means (703), and the at least one deposit element (703) is at least partially horizontally displaceable by at least one second drive (704), wherein the at least one pile formation means (705) and the at least one deposit element (703) are displaceable horizontally to a temporary storage position (724), wherein the at least one first drive (706) is configured to move the at least one pile formation means (705) away from the temporary storage position (724) while the at least one second drive (704) is configured to hold a region (721) of the at least one deposit element (703) stationary relative to the at least one pile formation means (705);
- and
- a frame (733), wherein the at least one first drive (706) is fixed to the frame (733) and the at least one second drive (704) is fixed to the frame (733).
A method for forming piles in a sheet processing machine (01) comprising at least one pile formation device (701), the at least one pile formation device (701) comprising at least one pile formation means (705) and at least one deposit element (703) that can be displaced relative to the at least one pile formation means (705), the method comprising:
- inwardly moving the at least one pile formation device (701) in an inwardly-moving direction (E) from an inward-moving position (723) into a temporary storage position (724), and
- outwardly moving the at least one pile formation device (701) from the temporary storage position (724) into an outwardly-moving position (726) counter to the inwardly-moving direction (E), wherein:
- the at least one pile formation means (705) is at least horizontally displaced by at least one first drive (706),
- the at least one deposit element (703) is at least partially horizontally displaceable by at least one second drive (704),
- the at least one deposit element (703) is configured as at least one at least partially linearly configured transport means (703),
- during the outwardly moving the at least one pile formation device (701) from the temporary storage position (724) into the outwardly-moving position (726), a relative movement takes place between the at least one deposit element (703) and the at least one pile formation means (705), wherein, during the relative movement, based at least on the at least one first drive (706) and the at least one second drive (704) being fixed to a frame (733) of the sheet processing machine, the least one first drive (706) moves the at least one pile formation means (705) to the outwardly-moving position (726), while the at least one second drive (704) holds a region (721) of the at least one deposit element (703) stationary.
