Opfindelsen angår en arksorteringsindretning til en elektronisk styret arkskriver i et flerbruger dataeller tekstbehandlingssystem, hvor arksorteringsindretningen omfatter adresserbare sorteringsbakker i form af 5 hovedsageligt parallelle og i indbyrdes afstand beliggende hylder, der tilsammen danner en enhed, som er afskærmet langs to hosliggende sideflader og er tilsluttet en arkfremførings- og fordelerenhed ved en tredje sideflade samt har tømmeåbninger for fjernelse af fær-10 digskrevne og sorterede ark ved den fjerde sideflade, og hvor en låge er lejret således svingbar om en akse, at den er bevægelig mellem en låsbar position, hvor lågen spærrer for adgang til en bakkes tømmeåbning, og en neutral position med uhindret adgang til fjernelse af 15 ark fra bakkerne.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The invention relates to a sheet sorting device for an electronically controlled sheet printer in a multi-user data or word processing system, wherein the sheet sorting device comprises addressable sorting trays in the form of essentially parallel and spaced shelves which together form a unit shielded along two adjacent side surfaces and connected sheet feeding and dispensing unit of a third side surface, and having discharge openings for removing finished and sorted sheets at the fourth side surface, and wherein a door is mounted so pivotally about an axis that it is movable between a lockable position where the door locks for access to a tray's discharge port, and a neutral position with unobstructed access to remove 15 sheets from the trays.
Ved eksempelvis data- eller tekstbehandlingssystemer, hvor mange brugere deler en enkelt centralt placeret arkskriver, har alle og enhver ofte adgang til at læse det trykte materiale. Der kan være tale om et 20 tekstbehandlingssystem i en virksomheds administrationsbygning, hvor de ansatte, som tilfældigvis befinder sig i nærheden af skriveren i perioden fra materialet trykkes og udsorteres i bakkerne til det afhentes af den person, som har igangsat trykningen, i dag har 25 fri adgang til at læse det trykte materiale, også selv om der er tale om direktionsbreve, regnskabstal eller andet potentielt følsomt materiale.For example, in data or word processing systems, where many users share a single centrally located sheet printer, anyone and everyone often has access to read the printed material. There may be a 20 word processing system in a business administration building where employees who happen to be near the printer during the period from the material are printed and sorted in the trays until picked up by the person who initiated the printing today has 25 free access to read the printed material, even in the case of letters of management, accounting figures or other potentially sensitive material.
I datasystemer, der anvendes til fx forskningsrelaterede beregninger, deler flere brugere normalt en 30 enkelt skriver, der ofte er anbragt i et særskilt printerrum, fordi udskrivningen frembringer et højt støjniveau, der ellers kunne genere brugerne. I større systemer kan der være kø af informationer, som venter på udskrivning, og brugerne vil da ofte efter beordret ud-35 skrivning gå i gang med andet arbejde for derefter på et senere tidspunkt i en belejlig arbejdspause at henteIn computer systems used for, for example, research-related calculations, multiple users usually share a single printer, often placed in a separate printer room, because printing produces a high level of noise that would otherwise bother users. In larger systems, there may be queues of information waiting for printing, and users will then often, after ordering printing, embark on other work and then at a later point in a convenient work break to retrieve

2 det trykte materiale, som i mellemtiden har ligget frit tilgængelig på en hylde i den til skriveren sluttede arksorteringsindretning.2 shows the printed material, which has meanwhile been freely available on a shelf in the sheet sorting device attached to the printer.
Udskrivning af telefaxmeddelelser udgør et sær-5 ligt problem, idet disse ofte som følge af en geografisk tidsforskel mellem sender og modtager udskrives på tidspunkter, hvor den normale bemanding af modtagerarbejdspladsen holder fri, medens der i stedet kan være rengøringspersonale, vagtpersonale eller andre med en 10 løsere tilknytning til arbejdspladsen. Der er derfor i eksisterende telefaxsystemer en iboende risiko for, at den overførte meddelelse gennemlæses af andre end den tiltænkte modtager.Printing fax messages is a particular problem as they are often printed due to a geographical time difference between sender and recipient at times when the normal staffing of the recipient workplace is held free, while there may instead be cleaning staff, receptionists or others with a 10 looser connections to the workplace. Therefore, in existing facsimile systems there is an inherent risk that the transmitted message will be read by other than the intended recipient.
Fra EP-A-241 273 kendes en sorteringsindretning 15 af den indledningsvis nævnte art, hvor en aflåselig låge spærrer for adgangen til flere bakker. Lågen er ved underkanten lejret drejelig om en akse, der forløber parallelt med den nederste af de skråtstillede, aflåselige låger, så at lågen kan vippes ned, når kopier skal 20 fjernes fra bakkerne. Den bundhængslede låge besværliggør arkudtagning fra den nederste aflåselige bakke. I flerbrugersystemet kan kun en enkelt person ad gangen sende ark til de aflåste bakker, og det er ikke muligt at ændre antallet af aflåste bakker efter det øjeblik-25 kelige brugsbehov. Endvidere er sorteringsindretningens fleksibilitet i et flerbrugersystem mindsket ved, at arkskriveren kun kan igangsættes, hvis samtlige låger er låst.EP-A-241 273 discloses a sorting device 15 of the kind mentioned above, in which a lockable door blocks access to several trays. The door is mounted at the bottom edge about an axis extending parallel to the bottom of the inclined, lockable doors so that the door can be tilted down when copies need to be removed from the trays. The bottom hinged door makes it difficult to remove sheets from the lower lockable tray. In the multi-user system, only a single person can send sheets to the locked trays at a time, and it is not possible to change the number of locked trays according to the immediate use requirement. Furthermore, the flexibility of the sorting device in a multi-user system is diminished by the fact that the sheet printer can only be started if all the doors are locked.
Det et et formål for opfindelsen af afhjælpe 30 ovennævnte ulemper og at anvise en arksorteringsindretning med en sådan modulær opbygning, at den enkelte bruger efter behov kan tildeles en eller flere aflåselige bakker.It is an object of the invention to remedy the above-mentioned disadvantages and to provide a sheet sorting device with such a modular structure that the individual user can be assigned one or more lockable trays as needed.
Dette opnås ved, at indretningen ifølge opfin-35 delsen er ejendommelig ved, at flere aflåselige bakker har hver sin låge, hvis lejringsakse står vinkrelret påThis is achieved by the device according to the invention being characterized in that several lockable trays each have a door whose bearing axis is perpendicular to
DK 165237BDK 165237B
3 hyldens plan, og at flere låger valgfrit kan sammenkobles til fælles svingning om lejringsaksen, når flere til de pågældende låger hørende hylder bliver allokeret en enkelt bruger.3, the shelf plan, and that multiple doors can be optionally linked together for common swing about the bearing axis, when several shelves belonging to the relevant doors are allocated a single user.
5 Anvendelsen af en sidehængslet låge til hver af de aflåselige bakker muliggør uhindret autoriseret adgang til at gribe om og udtage ark fra en enkelt hylde, hvis låg er svunget til side, uafhængigt af om andre hylder er aflåste. Muligheden for sammenkobling efter 10 ønske af flere låger giver let betjening og stor fleksibilitet i sorteringsindretningens tilpasning til det øjeblikkelige brugerbehov for aflåselige hylder.5 The use of a side hinged door for each of the lockable trays allows unobstructed authorized access to grab and remove sheets from a single shelf whose lid is swung aside, regardless of whether other shelves are locked. The possibility of interconnecting after 10 requests of multiple doors provides easy operation and great flexibility in the arrangement of the sorting device to the immediate user need for lockable shelves.
Den enkle betjening af arksorteringsindretningen er i en foretrukket udførelsesform fremmet ved, at de 15 for fælles svingning sammenkoblede låger er aflåselige ved hjælp af en enkelt fælles lås, så at tømning af de til en bestemt bruger hørende hylder kun kræver oplåsning af en lås. Samtidig med to lågers sammenkobling kan den til den ene låge hørende lås inaktiveres, så at 20 begge låger er aflåselige ved hjælp af den anden låges lås.The simple operation of the sheet sorting device is, in a preferred embodiment, promoted by the fact that the joint pivot interlocking doors are lockable by means of a single common latch, so that emptying the shelves of a particular user requires only the unlocking of a latch. At the same time, with the two doors interconnected, the lock belonging to one door can be deactivated, so that both doors are lockable by means of the other door lock.
Herefter beskrives en udførelsesform for opfindelsen nærmere med henvisning til den skematiske tegning, hvor 25 fig. 1 viser en arkskriver med en sorteringsind retning af kendt art, fig. 2 i udsnit et perspektivbillede af en sorteringsindretning ifølge opfindelsen, og fig. 3 en illustration af låseindretningen iføl-30 ge opfindelsen.Next, an embodiment of the invention is described in more detail with reference to the schematic drawing, in which FIG. 1 shows a sheet printer with a sorting arrangement of the prior art; FIG. 2 is a sectional view of a sorting device according to the invention; and FIG. 3 is an illustration of the locking device according to the invention.
Den i fig. 1 viste arkskriver 1 kan være af vilkårlig kendt type, såsom en printer eller et offsetapparat til originaltrykning eller mangfoldiggørelse af en skrivelse. Arkskriveren afleverer enkeltark, ek-35 sempelvis af A4-størrelse, til en arksorteringsindretning 2 bestående af sorteringsbakker 3 og enThe FIG. Sheet printer 1 shown in Figure 1 may be of any known type, such as a printer or offset apparatus for original printing or multiplication of a writing. The sheet printer delivers single sheets, for example A4 size, to a sheet sorting device 2 consisting of sorting trays 3 and a

4 arkfremførings- og fordelerenhed 4, der sorterer arkene ud i de enkelte bakker i afhængighed af de elektroniske styrekoder, som skriveren og sorteringsindretningen er tilført fra brugerapparatet sammen med den re-5 sterende del af signalsekvensen til styring af udskrivningen .4 sheet feeding and distributing unit 4, which sorts the sheets into the individual trays depending on the electronic control codes supplied to the printer and the sorting device by the user apparatus together with the remaining portion of the printing control signal sequence.
Det er almindelig kendt teknik, at den indvidu-elle bruger kan være allokeret bestemte bakker i indretningen 2, og også at brugeren alternativt selv har 10 mulighed for adressering af udskrivningen til en bestemt bakke.It is well known in the art that the individual user may be allocated certain trays in the device 2, and also that the user alternatively himself has the opportunity to address the printing to a particular tray.
De enkelte bakker er udformet som hylder 5, der er parallelle og ligger i indbyrdes afstand over hinanden. Bakkerne er sideværts på tre sider afgrænset 15 af henholdsvis fordelerenheden 4 og en afskærmning 6 bestående af fx tyndplade eller plast. På den fjerde side er der fri adgang til hylderne, og hver bakkes tømmeåbning er dermed afgrænset i lodret retning af den pågældende hylde og den ovenliggende hylde og i vandret 20 retning af afskærmningen 6 og enheden 4..The individual trays are designed as shelves 5 which are parallel and spaced apart. The trays are laterally arranged on three sides 15 by the distributor unit 4 and a cover 6 consisting of, for example, thin plate or plastic. On the fourth side there is free access to the shelves, and the emptying opening of each tray is thus bounded in the vertical direction of the respective shelf and the upper shelf and in the horizontal direction of the shield 6 and the unit 4.
I fig. 2 ses sorteringsindretningen ifølge opfindelsen, hvor elementer med samme funktion som ovenfor er tildelt samme henvisningsnummer.In FIG. 2, the sorting device according to the invention is shown, in which elements having the same function as above are assigned the same reference number.
På den fjerde sideflade 7 er hver af de fire 25 øverste bakker forsynet med en låseindretning i form af en låge 8, som via et i lågens ene endeområde beliggende hængsel 9 er lejret svingbar om en lodretstående aksel 10, der er båret af to fremspring 11 i sorteringsindretningens ramme. Lågen 8 kan fastholdes i 30 lodret retning af en i en reces i akslen 10 indsat seegering (ikke vist), som ligger an mod hængslet 9's underkant.On the fourth side surface 7, each of the four top 25 trays is provided with a locking device in the form of a door 8, which is pivotally mounted via a hinge 9 located in one end area of the door, about a vertical shaft 10 supported by two projections 11. in the frame of the sorting device. The door 8 can be held in a vertical direction by a sealing ring (not shown) inserted in a recess in the shaft 10, which abuts the lower edge of the hinge 9.
Hver låge bærer i endeområdet modsat hængslet 9 en ene part 12 af et udløseligt låseorgan, hvis anden 35 part 13 er -fast monteret i afskærmningen 6. Den anden part kan være en kodelås af den art, som kendes fra dokumentmapper.Each gate carries in the end region opposite the hinge 9 one portion 12 of a releasable locking member, the other of which 35 is 13 fixedly fixed in the shield 6. The other portion may be a code lock of the kind known from document folders.

Alternativt kan der i hængslet 9 være indbygget en fjeder, som forbelaster lågen 8 til bevægelse i lukkeretningen, og låseorganet kan være en med nøgle udløselig smæklås.Alternatively, in the hinge 9 a spring may be incorporated which preloads the door 8 for movement in the closing direction, and the locking means may be a key-release latch.
5 Lågen 8, se fig. 3, er hensigtsmæssigt frem stillet i transparent plast, så at der, selv om lågen er lukket, visuelt kan"konstateres, om der ligger usorterede ark i den pågældende bakke. Lågen omfatter et fladt forstykke 14 og to indadgående flangestykker 10 15, som i lågens lukkede stilling ligger stort set ud for de tilhørende hylder 5.5 The door 8, see fig. 3, is conveniently made of transparent plastic so that, even if the door is closed, it can be visually ascertained whether there are unsorted sheets in the tray concerned. The door comprises a flat head 14 and two inward flange pieces 10 15, as in the closed position of the door is largely adjacent to the associated shelves 5.
Hylderne er i den centrale del af kantfladen udført med en reces, så at de udsorterede ark vil rage lidt ud over hyldekanten for derved lettere at kunne 15 gribes ved manuel tømning af bakken. Flangen 15 har et modsvarende centralt fremspring 16 med en udsparing 17, der tillader, at der gribes omkring en udsorteret stabel ark i den overliggende bakke, selv når lågen 8 er lukket.The shelves in the central part of the edge surface are made with a recess so that the sorted sheets will protrude slightly beyond the shelf edge so as to be easier to grasp by manually emptying the tray. The flange 15 has a corresponding central projection 16 with a recess 17 which permits gripping around a sorted stack of sheets in the overhead tray, even when the door 8 is closed.
20 -Over- og underflangen 15 bærer hver sin del af et snaplåsningsorgan 18, som efter ønske kan anvendes til sammenkobling af flere låger 8, så at de kan svinges som en enhed om akslen 10 og kun kræver låsning med et enkelt låseorgan 12. Dette er fordelagtigt, 25 såfremt flere bakker er allokeret et enkelt brugerapparat, fordi oplåsningen kun kræver aktivering af én lås. Snaplåsningsorganet 18 kan alternativt udformes som huller i flangerne 15 og et løst indsatsstykke, hvilket på enkel vis tillader lågejustering svarende 30 til ændringer i hyldernes allokering ved at fjerne eller isætte indsatsstykket og eventuelt justere de tilhørende låse.The upper and lower flanges 15 each carry a portion of a snap-locking member 18 which can be used, as desired, to interconnect several doors 8 so that they can be pivoted as a unit about the shaft 10 and require only locking with a single locking member 12. This is advantageous if several trays are allocated to a single user device because the unlocking requires only one lock. Alternatively, the snap locking means 18 can be formed as holes in the flanges 15 and a loose insert, which simply allows door adjustment corresponding to 30 changes in the shelf allocation by removing or inserting the insert and optionally adjusting the associated locks.
Såfremt arksorteringsindretningen anvendes i forbindelse med en telefaxskriver, vil telefaxen nor-35 malt være allokeret én bestemt bakke, som er forsynet med en lukkeindretning ifølge opfindelsen. Det må dogIf the sheet sorting device is used in conjunction with a facsimile printer, the facsimile will normally be allocated one particular tray provided with a closure device according to the invention. However, it must
