Sheet turning unit for use in printing machine, has sheet receiving devices rotatable around rotation axis, where receiving pockets of sheet receiving devices are spaced apart in rotation direction of sheet receiving devices

摘要

The unit has a sheet conveying unit (28) spaced apart from another sheet conveying unit (30), and sheet receiving devices (22, 24) provided with receiving pockets (26) for partially accommodating sheets (S). The sheet receiving devices are rotatable around a rotation axis, where the receiving pockets are spaced apart in a rotation direction of the sheet receiving devices. The former sheet conveying unit conveys the sheets into the receiving pockets, and the latter sheet conveying unit conveys the sheets from the receiving pockets. An independent claim is also included for a method for turning a sheet in a printing machine.
