Fold section feeding out apparatus of folding unit

摘要

A fold section feeding out apparatus of a folding unit for a rotary press is capable of preventing rebounding of a read end portion of a fold section to be caused upon transferring from a delivery fan to a conveyer. The fold section feeding out apparatus includes the delivery fan receiving fold sections cut and folded by a folding unit for feeding, and the conveyer receiving fold sections fed from the delivery fan and transporting the fold section in overlapped condition with shifted for a predetermined pitch. The fold section feeding out apparatus also includes at least one air ejecting means opening above the conveyer and ejecting a compressed air from a leading end side of the fold section at least toward a position in the vicinity of the rear end of the fold section for holding the rear end of the fold section transferred from the delivery fan to the conveyer as being lowered according to rotation of the delivery fan, for restricting free movement of the rear end of the fold section.
