ABSTRACT:
An improved saddle stitching apparatus has dual scoring disks which cooperate with a scoring drum to create a flat spine on a cover. In one embodiment, a split ring is provided with two clamp arms, so that the ring can be releasably secured to the scoring drum. The ring includes a pair of annular grooves, with the distance between the grooves being of the desired spine width. The scoring disks are positioned adjacent the grooves so as to form the scoring lines. A folding assembly is also disclosed, which utilizes a flat carrying belt and a V-belt for purposes of folding the cover and moving the cover toward a stitching station. A gathering chain is also utilized to deliver the cover and signatures to the stitching station. The station includes a guide to assist in directing the preassembled covers and signatures toward a stitching head. Also provided is a block guide and an anvil for assistance in centering the spine beneath the stitching head. The stitching head delivers a saddle stitch in the center of the spine.
