ABSTRACT:
A device for conveying a sheet through a printing machine includes a cylinder, formed with a channel wherein grippers are disposed for holding the sheet at a leading edge, a chain conveyor with grippers fixed to endless chains for holding and picking up the sheet at its leading edge from the cylinder and for holding the sheet at its trailing edge, and rotating sprockets carrying the chains. An actuating device is provided for opening and closing the grippers, and a drive is provided for the cylinder and the sprockets. Gripper pads and gripper tips for the trailing-edge grippers, in opened condition of the grippers, are able to run past the cylinder. The gripper pads and tips lie underneath a path described by the sheet. The trailing-edge grippers are closable in a rotational angle region wherein the chains run off the sprockets for the cylinder.
