Abstract (en)
[origin: US2006153665A1] A device for centrally splitting book blocks ( 1 ) in bookbinding machines, wherein the book blocks ( 1 ) being transported forward of a conveyor ( 2 ) are split by being pushed against a splitting element ( 3 ). In order to also ensure the functionally reliable splitting of book blocks ( 1 ) that consist of thick cardboard sheets or panels, a blunt wedge ( 10 ) in the form of a gable roof acts upon the front edge cut ( 1 a) of the book block upstream of the splitting element ( 3 ) and produces a gap that begins in the leading book block edge and extends into the head edge cut or the foot edge cut ( 1 b) and into the front edge cut ( 1 a). The splitting tool ( 4 ) penetrates into the book block ( 1 ) through the gap. In one preferred embodiment, a spring-loaded, rotatable wedge roller ( 10 ) is used that has a rounded point and a wedge angle (a) of 130°.
