ABSTRACT:
A book block transport system with a plurality of book block clamps (1) each having a supporting frame (2) that is supported in guides and carries an inner clamping jaw (3) and a pivot frame (4) that is suspended on a shaft (6) of the supporting frame (2) extending parallel thereto for accommodating an outer clamping jaw (5). The pivoting movement for opening and closing the outer clamping jaw (5) is controlled by a cam track, with a spring element (13) that generates the clamping force between the inner and outer clamping jaws (3and5). A book stop catch (30, 40) is carried on the book block clamp (1) for aligning the book block supplied by an infeed device. In order to reliably and flawlessly transfer and align the book blocks supplied by an infeed device, the book stop catch (30, 40) is arranged on the book block clamp (1) such that it can be moved relative to the inner clamping jaw (3). Only a small transport gap is required between two successively supplied book blocks such that the book block clamps (1) are able to transport a larger format height relative to the clamp pitch.
