Apparatus for the production of a device for detaching portions of plate-like workpieces

An apparatus for the production of a device for separating parts of a laminar, workpiece of cardboard used in the folding box industry, said workpiece containing at least one blank for a folding box and adjoining waste pieces where the waste pieces are removed from a plane of the workpiece by means of said device which comprises a breaking-out tool comprising a breaking-out plate tooled with a plurality of partially inserted breaking-out pins, said apparatus comprising:

• a pressing element movable to and fro relative to a surface of said breaking-out plate;
• a container-shaped magazine device carrying a plurality of individually removable breaking-out pins;
• said magazine device being provided between the pressing element and the breaking-out plate so that the breaking-out pins to be fixed to the breaking-out plate to be tooled are individually transferred from the magazine device into a pressing path of the pressing element;
• a guide piece associated with the container-shaped magazine device and the pressing element, said guide piece acting as a guiding device for each said breaking-out pin;
• and
• said guiding device being provided in a feed path of the magazine container and being provided with a recess for receiving the breaking-out pins from said magazine device.

An apparatus for producing a device for detaching portions of a substantially planar workpiece having at least one blank in the form of a desired product and adjoining waste pieces and for moving said waste pieces out of a plane of said workpiece wherein said device includes a breaking-out plate for detaching said portions of said substantially planar workpiece from said waste pieces, said apparatus comprising:

• a breaking-out pin setting device;
• said breaking-out pin setting device comprising a magazine device containing a plurality of breaking-out pins and means for removing said breaking-out pins from said magazine device and inserting said pins into said breaking-out plate in a desired pattern corresponding to locations of said waste pieces;
• said removing and inserting means comprising a pressure member movable in a direction substantially at a right angle with respect to a surface of said breaking-out plate into which said pins are to be inserted;
• and
• said pin setting device being fixed to a movable support of a printing machine and the breaking-out plate resting on a printing table in opposite relation thereto.
