Device to ensure correct tooth engagement of two gears

摘要

A device for ensuring correct tooth engagement during coupling of an adjustable, first gearwheel to a second gearwheel of a printing-material processing machine, includes a first adjustment device for adjusting the first gearwheel in a direction towards the second gearwheel during coupling, and further includes a protrusion and a guide for guiding the protrusion during the coupling, the protrusion being disposed eccentrically to one of the two gearwheels and being connected to the one gearwheel, so that, during rotation of the one gearwheel about a central axis thereof, the protrusion is rotatable together with the one gearwheel.
