Abstract

See full text

With an apparatus for the processing by milling of the overhanging spine (14) region of a book block (9), which is clamped into at least one clamping device (4) on a conveying arrangement (5) with the side to be processed pointing in downward direction, the book block (9) is moved along the conveying path past a rotary-driven processing tool (16) of a stationary processing station (6). The at least one clamping device (4) is attached to a rotating frame (3) that rotates around a perpendicular axis of rotation (2), wherein the clamping device is provided with an immovable clamping jaw (7) as well as an opposite-arranged movable clamping jaw (8) for opening and closing the clamping device (4). The apparatus is furthermore provided with a supporting member (19) that counteracts the cutting forces generated by the processing station (6), wherein the supporting member (19) assigned to the processing station (6) is mounted stationary and comprises a stabilizing element (20) that comes to rest against the clamping jaw (7, 8) of the clamping device (4) and is attached to a guide member (21) which supports the overhanging book block region.
