Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0658426A1] In a folding device, it is to be ensured that outer edges, running parallel to the conveying direction, of the signatures of variable width are sufficiently covered by conveyor belts (41; 42; 43; 44; 45; 46) of a belt conveying system so that, in the event of the grippers (17) arranged on the collecting cylinder (16) continuing to grip, the leading ends of the signatures remain undamaged. This takes place due to the fact that the strip (6) of the paper web which can be divided into signatures is displaceable in the axial direction of the collecting cylinder by at least one belt width. In this case, a width of the conveyor belts (b) is equal to or greater than a gap (i) between the belts. <IMAGE>
