Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0393562A2] In a longitudinal folding device for a web of printing material on a folding apparatus of a web-fed rotary printing machine, which has a former mounted rotatably in relation to the machine side walls at a pivot point, the pivot point has previously been arranged on the rear side of the former. During a swivel movement of the former, the former roller arranged above the former and the former inlet rollers arranged on both sides of the former nose had to be guided. <??>By placing the pivot point on the side of the web of printing material facing away from the former - preferably near to the intersection of two straight lines, the first of which extends perpendicular to the former inclination through its upper end and the second of which extends perpendicular through the lower end of the former - the vertical offset of the former nose and the displacement of the upper end is minimised to such an extent that the need for guiding is obviated. <IMAGE>
