Definitions
- the invention relates to a hand-held labeling device according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
- a hand-held labeling device which contains one or two stamp printing units in a frame which is pivotally connected to the housing. By swiveling the frame on the device housing upwards, the printing units are accessible for cleaning purposes.
- the use of a rotary printing unit is not readily possible with such a device, since after loosening the drive connection that results when the frame is pivoted out of the device, rotation of the rotary printing unit is possible, so that the printing unit does not pivot when the frame is subsequently pivoted back occupies the previous position. This will cause the device to malfunction.
- the invention has for its object to provide a hand-held labeling device of the type described at the outset, in which the problem of a malfunction due to an undesired rotation of the printing unit when the drive connection is released does not occur.
- the device used in the device according to the invention ensures that the rotary printing unit assumes a defined basic position after pivoting out the frame during the subsequent pivoting back and that malfunctions cannot occur as a result of incorrect engagement of the drive connection.
- the hand-held labeling device shown in FIG. 1 contains a housing 1 to which a handle 2 is attached. Below the handle 2 there is an operating lever 3 which can be pulled against the handle 2 by hand to actuate the device; the operating lever 3 rotates about the axis 4. Inside the housing 1, a drive gear 5 is rotatably mounted, which is only shown schematically with broken lines. This drive gear 5 is rotated via a drive connection, not shown, from the operating lever 3 when it is pulled against the handle 2. When the operating lever 3 is released, it returns under the action of a spring, not shown, back to its starting position of FIG. 1, whereby the drive gear 5 rotates in the opposite direction.
- the drive gear 5 is in engagement with a tooth segment 6, also shown only schematically, which is non-rotatably connected to a printing unit 7.
- the printing unit 7 is rotatably mounted about an axis 8. So when the drive gear 5 rotates, due to its engagement with the toothed segment 6, the printing unit 7 also rotates about the axis 8.
- a curved body 16 is formed on the lower edge of the shaft 12, the purpose of which will be explained below.
- the shaft 12 can be pivoted upwards about an axis 17 which is fixedly connected to the housing 1 from the position shown in FIG. 1 to the position shown in FIG. In the position shown in FIG. 1, the shaft 12 is held in place by means of a latching device 18.
- the carrier tape 15 with the self-adhesive labels 14 adhering to it runs downward from the supply roll 13, and it is guided between the printing unit 7 and the printing roller 10 to a dispensing edge 19 on which the self-adhesive labels are located 14 because of the strong kinking of the carrier tape 15.
- 1 shows a self-adhesive label 14 detached from the carrier tape 15, which in a dispensing position is located below a pressure roller 21 which can be rotated about an axis 20.
- a transport device ensures that the carrier tape 15 is moved during a work cycle, that is to say during the pivoting of the operating lever 3 against the handle 2 and the return of the operating lever to the starting position shown in FIG. 1, in such a way that a self-adhesive label 14 is moved from the printing unit 7 printed and then brought into the dispensing position shown in Fig. 1 below the pressure roller 21.
- the printing unit 7 is mounted in a frame 22 which can be pivoted out of the housing about the axis 20 of the pressure roller 21 from the position of FIG. 1 into the position of FIG. 2.
- the frame 22 consists of two side parts 23, of which of course only one can be seen in the side views of FIGS. 1 and 2.
- a connecting rod 24 extends between the two connecting parts 23; the axis 8 of the printing unit 7 also extends between the two side parts 23.
- the connecting rod 24 forms, together with the cam body 16 on the shaft 12, a pressing device which holds the printing unit 7 in the position shown in FIG. 1 when the shaft 12 is held in the position of FIG. 1 by means of the latching device 18.
- the cam body 16 is shaped so that it exerts a downward force on the connecting rod 24 in the position of FIG. 1, so that the frame 22 is held without play with the printing unit 7, while it after pivoting the shaft 12 about the axis 17 lies in the position shown in FIG. 2 outside the circular arc described by the connecting rod 24 when the frame 22 is pivoted about the axis 20 of the pressure roller 21. Therefore, the frame 22 with the printing unit 7 can only be moved from the position of FIG. 1 to the position of FIG. 2 after the shaft 12 has been pivoted into the position shown in FIG. 2.
- the gear connection provided for driving the printing unit 7 from the gear 5 and the toothed segment 6 is engaged in the position of FIG. 1, while the engagement in the position of FIG. 2 is not present.
- a spring clip 25 is provided which has a leg 26 connected to the frame 22 and a leg 27 connected to the housing.
- a locking device which prevents the printing unit 7 from rotating about the axis 8 in the position of FIG. 2.
- This locking device contains a lug 28 attached to the printing unit circumference 7 and a pawl 29 which is loaded by a spring 30 in such a way that it attempts to rotate clockwise about an axis 31 in the representations of FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the pawl 29 is pushed back so far against the action of the spring 30 by a pin 32 firmly connected to the housing that it lies outside the path that the nose 28 describes when the printing unit 7 rotates.
- the spring 30 rotates the pawl 29 into the position shown in FIG. 2, in which the nose 28 abuts the pawl 29, so that the printing unit 7 does not rotate about the axis 8 can. This ensures that the relative position of the gear 5 and the toothed segment 6 is not changed when the frame 22 is pivoted out of the housing 1 and when it is pivoted back.
- the printing unit 7 can also be held in a defined basic position by means of a torsion spring (not shown) when the printing unit 7 is pivoted out of the housing 1.
- a torsion spring can also be used to prevent the printing unit 7 from being inadvertently rotated in the pivoted-out position and from assuming a position when pivoted back in which the correct engagement of the gear wheel 5 and the toothed segment 6 is not guaranteed. Since the torsion spring holds the printing unit 7 in the defined basic position, the tooth connection is certainly properly engaged when the printing unit 7 is pivoted back into the housing 1.
- torsion spring for holding the printing unit 7 in a defined basic position also has the advantage that the printing unit 7 can be rotated in the pivoted-out position against the force of the spring so that the printing types are easily accessible for control and cleaning purposes.
- a torsion spring 33 embodied as a helical spring, is wrapped around the axis 8 of the printing unit 7 and engages with the axis 8 with one end 34 and with the printing unit 7 with the other end 35.
- the end 34 is supported on a pin 36 attached to the axis 8, while the end 35 is supported in a recess 37 in the printing unit 7 on an inner surface of this recess 37.
- the torsion spring 33 exerts a force on the printing unit 7, which prestresses the printing unit 7 clockwise in the illustration of FIG. 1.
- the basic position is determined by a stop 38 attached to the printing unit 7 and a slot 39 provided in the frame 22, which runs along an arc around the axis of the printing unit 7.
- the length of the slot determines the maximum rotational path of the printing unit 7.
- the stop 38 and the slot 39 are shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the printing unit 7 being in the basic position.
- the path through which the carrier tape 15 with the self-adhesive labels 14 runs from the supply roll 13 to the dispensing edge 19 is easily accessible from the front of the housing when the printing unit 7 is pivoted out of the housing 1. Should the carrier tape 15 have become jammed in the interior of the housing or should a self-adhesive label 14 have detached from the carrier tape 15 in the device prematurely, then such malfunctions can be remedied very quickly due to the free accessibility of the housing interior. Since the frame 22, apart from the easily removable spring clip 25, is connected to the housing 1 only on the axis 20 of the pressure roller 21, it can be completely separated from the housing 1 without great effort.
