ABSTRACT:
At least several spaced apart storage compartments are provided in a plate storage device. These compartments can receive used printing forms from a printing cylinder or new printing forms that are to be supplied to the printing cylinder. At least one positioning assembly is utilized to adjust at least one mouth region of two of the storage compartments to the same spaced position, with respect to the printing cylinder, at different times in the operating cycle of the plate storage compartments. This mouth region is situated facing the printing cylinder. In another embodiment, at least one printing form, that is being received from the printing cylinder, can be stored in at least one storage compartment. At least one conveying apparatus is provided and includes an entraining mechanism for gripping the printing form that is to be removed. Alternatively, the conveying apparatus can be used with a new printing form that is to be fed to the printing cylinder and which is stored in at least one of the storage compartments. At least one advancing mechanism is provided and is comprised of a slider that can grip the printing form that is to be fed. A positioning assembly lifts and lowers the storage compartment, relative to the entraining mechanism and/or the slider or lifts and lowers the entraining mechanism and/or the slider relative to the storage compartment.
