A method and device for additional pressing during a page nipping event in the adhesive binding of books or corresponding objects. One part of the cover ( 1 ) and the spine of the book are folded around the block ( 2 ) formed by the book's pages and glued on the spine of the block. The other part of the cover is folded into shape by means of a moveable jaw ( 8 ). The aforementioned folding of the cover ( 1 ) is accomplished by the aid of an additional compactor ( 9 ) acting by way of a stiffening brace ( 10 ) supporting the block ( 2 ). Alternatively, the process may be aided directly by the flexible support ( 7 ) by, for example, making a fold in the support ( 7 ) which causes it to function as a spring. |
