Abstract

See full text

Apparatus for feeding strips coated with a fusion adhesive on one of their surfaces to a sheet-stack binding apparatus, in particular, for the binding of loose sheets to form brochures or books, such apparatus enabling, in parallel with a binding operation, a strip cut to the required length to be made available for a subsequent binding operation. The apparatus (14) arranged in the strip path downstream of a cutting unit (12) includes a transport carriage (15) which is stationary with respect to the strip path (13) and movable vertically to the strip path and on which a horizontally movable element (16) as well as a plurality of stationary mechanical elements (11, 17) are arranged for holding the strip free from torsion. Driving means (19), control means, as well as a tilting device (18) are provided for transferring transport carriage (15) to a binding apparatus (21) which is arranged vertically to the strip path (13) and holds the sheet stack (22) such that the strip rests on the spine of the sheet stack in a centrally aligned position and is fixed by holding elements (23) of the binding apparatus (21).
