Abstract

An apparatus for transferring ink to the printing plate of a metering head of a metering machine has an ink storage roller mounted on a roller support with which it is interchangeably inserted through a lateral opening in the metering machine casing. On one end of the roller support, a handle is provided which is located laterally on the casing, thereby preventing contact with the ink storage roller during replacement. The insertion of a new ink storage roller is facilitated by a fixed bearing bolt on which is mounted the hollow shaft of the roller support. A protective sleeve connected to the back of the casing wall prevents unauthorized access to the metering head of the metering machine through the casing opening.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Einrichtung zum Farbübertrag auf das Klischee des Frankierkopfes einer Frankiermaschine mit einer auswechselbaren Farbspeicherwalze und mindestens einer Farbübertragwalze.The invention relates to a device for ink transfer to the cliché of the franking head of a franking machine with an exchangeable ink storage roller and at least one ink transfer roller.

Bei einer durch den Markt bekannten Einrichtung der genannten Art hat die Farbspeicherwalze an beiden Enden je einen Achszapfen und lässt sich quer zu ihrer Längsrichtung durch ein Fenster in einem Gehäuseteil der Frankiermaschine auswechseln. Das Auswechseln ist jedoch mühsam, da ein Kontakt mit der Farbe durch die Hand oder beim Ablegen, Verpacken, Wegwerfen usw. und eine Verschmutzung nicht vermeidbar ist. Ausserdem ist der Arbeitsablauf mechanisch kompliziert.In a device of the type mentioned which is known on the market, the ink storage roller has an axle pin at each end and can be exchanged transversely to its longitudinal direction through a window in a housing part of the franking machine. However, replacement is tedious, since contact with the paint by hand or when storing, packing, throwing away, etc. and contamination cannot be avoided. In addition, the workflow is mechanically complicated.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine solche Einrichtung so zu verbessern, dass das Auswechseln der Farbspeicherwalze einfach, schnell und ohne Gefahr einer unerwünschten Farbübertragung möglich ist. Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäss gelöst aufgrund der Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teiles des Anspruchs 1.The present invention has for its object to improve such a device so that the replacement of the ink storage roller is easy, quick and without risk of unwanted ink transfer. This object is achieved according to the invention on the basis of the features of the characterizing part of claim 1.

Durch die erfindungsgemässe Gestaltung ist es möglich, die Farbspeicherwalze mit dem Walzenträger mittels eines Handgriffs aus einem besonderen Verpackungsbehälter zu entnehmen und ohne Griffwechsel in die Frankiermaschine einzusetzen. Ebenso lösst sich die verbrauchte Farbspeicherwalze dabei in den leergewordenen Verpackungsbehälter einsetzen, um mit diesem ohne die Gefahr eines unerwünschten Farbübertrages weggeworfen zu werden.Due to the design according to the invention, it is possible to use an ink storage roller with the roller carrier Handle can be removed from a special packaging container and inserted into the franking machine without changing the handle. Likewise, the used ink storage roller is released into the empty packaging container so that it can be thrown away without the risk of undesired ink transfer.

Im folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand der Zeichnungen näher erläutert. Es zeigt:

  • Fig. 1 eine schematische Seitenansicht einer Frankiermaschine im Bereich des Frankierkopfes und der Einrichtung zum Farbübertrag mit entferntem Gehäuseteil,
  • Fig. 2 einen Teilsdchnitt entlang der Linie II-II der Fig. l, jedoch mit aufgesetztem Gehäuseteil,

The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the drawings. It shows:
  • 1 is a schematic side view of a franking machine in the area of the franking head and the device for ink transfer with the housing part removed,
  • 2 shows a partial section along the line II-II of FIG. 1, but with the housing part attached,
  • 3 is a handle-side end view of the roller carrier,

Die Frankiermaschine, deren allgemeine Ausführung als bekannt vorausgesetzt wird, hat seitlich von einem nicht dargestellten Hauptgehäuse, an dem die Verstellhebel zur Einstellung eines Frankierwertes vorgesehen sind, einen Frankiertisch 2 und einen darüber angeordneten Frankierkopf 4. Der Frankierkopf 4 dreht sich entsprechend dem Arbeitszyklus der Frankiermaschine, ausgelöst durch die Einführung eines Briefumschlages in Richtung des Pfeiles 6, so dass sich das Klischee 8 in Umfangsrichtung des Frankierkopfes 4 an der Farbübertragswalze 10 der Einrichtung 12 zum Farbübertrag abwälzt und anschliessend auf der Oberfläche eines Briefumschlages. Der Andruck erfolgt dabei durch die automatische Hubbewegung einer durch eine Strichlinie angedeuteten Andruckwalze 14.The franking machine, the general design of which is assumed to be known, has a franking table 2 and a franking head 4 arranged on the side of a main housing (not shown) on which the adjusting levers are provided for setting a franking value. The franking head 4 rotates according to the working cycle of the franking machine , triggered by the introduction of an envelope in the direction of the arrow 6, so that the cliché 8 rolls in the circumferential direction of the franking head 4 on the ink transfer roller 10 of the device 12 for ink transfer and then on the surface of an envelope. The pressure is effected by the automatic lifting movement of a pressure roller 14 indicated by a broken line.

Die Farbspeicherwalze 16 besteht z.B. aus Schaumstoff und ist mit flüssigem Farbstoff imprägniert. Sie dreht sich um eine relativ zur Frankiermaschine feststehende Achse 18 und wälzt sich dabei an einer 20 von zwei Farbübertragswalzen 20, 10 ab. Die Farbübertragswalzen 20, 10 sind in einem Rahmen 22 gelagert, der um eine Achse schwenkbar ist, die gleichachsig mit der Achse 18 der Farbspeicherwalze verläuft, so dass die Farbübertragswalze bei Kontakt mit dem Klischee 8 radial von dem Frankierkopf 4 weg ausschwenkbar ist. Die Schwenkbewegung erfolgt gegen den Druck einer Feder 24. Ein Anschlag 26 begrenzt die Schwenkbewegung des Schwenkrahmens 22 in Richtung zu dem Frankierkopf.The ink storage roller 16 is e.g. made of foam and is impregnated with liquid dye. It rotates about an axis 18 which is fixed relative to the franking machine and rolls on one of two ink transfer rollers 20, 10. The ink transfer rollers 20, 10 are mounted in a frame 22 which can be pivoted about an axis which is coaxial with the axis 18 of the ink storage roller, so that the ink transfer roller can be pivoted radially away from the franking head 4 when it comes into contact with the cliché 8. The pivoting movement takes place against the pressure of a spring 24. A stop 26 limits the pivoting movement of the pivoting frame 22 in the direction of the franking head.

Aus Sicherheitsgründen und um ein missbräuchliches Verstellen des eingestellten Frankierwertes des Frankierkopfes 4 zu verhindern, ist der Frankierkopf zusammen mit der Einrichtung 12 zum Farbübertrag von einem gemeinsamen, durch Strichlinien angedeuteten Gehäuse 28 umschlossen.For security reasons and in order to prevent improper adjustment of the set franking value of the franking head 4, the franking head together with the device 12 for ink transfer is enclosed by a common housing 28 indicated by dashed lines.

Die Anbringung, d.h. Lagerung und Befestigung der Farbspeicherwalze 16, ist aus der Darstellung in Fig. 2 ersichtlich. Die Farbspeicherwalze 16 ist an einer Lagerhülse 30 befestigt, die auf einem abgesetzten Teil 32 des Hohlschaftes 34 eines Walzenträgers 36 drehbar gelagert ist. Die Farbspeicherwalze 16 befindet sich an einem Ende des Walzenträgers 36, während an dessen anderem Ende eine Zentrier- und Verriegelungskappe 38 mit einem stegförmigen Handgriff 40 vorgesehen ist. Im montierten Zustand ist der Hohlschaft 34 des Walzenträgers auf einem mit der Frankiermaschine fest verbundenen Lagerungsbolzen 42 aufgesteckt, auf dem auch der Schwenkrahmen 22 gelagert ist. Auf diese Weise kann der Walzenträger mit der Farbspeicherwalze durch eine einfache Schiebebewegung in die Frankiermaschine eingesetzt und nach Verbrauch de3s Farbstoffes wieder entfernt werden.The attachment, ie storage and attachment of the ink storage roller 16, can be seen from the illustration in FIG. 2. The ink storage roller 16 is attached to a bearing sleeve 30 which is rotatably mounted on a stepped part 32 of the hollow shaft 34 of a roller carrier 36. The ink storage roller 16 is on one end of the roller carrier 36, while at the other end a centering and locking cap 38 with a web-shaped handle 40 is provided. In the assembled state, the hollow shaft 34 of the roller carrier is placed on a bearing bolt 42 which is firmly connected to the franking machine and on which the swivel frame 22 is also mounted. In this way, the roller carrier with the ink storage roller can be inserted into the franking machine by a simple sliding movement and removed again after the ink has been used up.

Das Einsetzen erfolgt durch eine Oeffnung 44 in der Seitenwand 46 des Teilgehäuses 28 der Frankiermaschine, die in der Darstellung nach Fig. 1 parallel zur Zeichenebene verläuft. Die Oeffnung 44 hat die Grösse des äusseren Durchmessers des Zentrierteiles 48 der Zentrierkappe 38, der aus einzelnen, axial verlaufenden Stegteilen bestehen kann. An einer Stelle des Zentrierteiles 48 befindet sich ein Verriegelungsnocken 50, der bajonettverschlussartig in einem Verriegelungskanal 52 des Gehäuseteiles zum Eingriff gebracht werden kann. Senkrecht zu der Gehäuseseitenwand 46 verläuft eine Sicherungshülse 52 in den Gehäuseinnenraum hinein, die den Walzenträger mit der Farbspeicherwalze 16 so weit wie möglich umschliesst. Diese Sicherungshülse 52 hat die Aufgabe, bei herausgenommenem Walzenträger mit Farbspeicherwalze einen unbefugten Zugriff zum Frankierkopf 4 bzw. zum Klischee und damit eine Verstellung des Frankierwertes zu verhindern. Eine seitliche Oeffnung 54 in der Sicherungshülse 52 ermöglicht den Kontakt der Farbspeicherwalze mit der angrenzenden Farbübertragungswalze 20. Der Verriegelungskanal 72 für den Zentrierteil 48 der Zentrier- und Verriegelungskappe 38 kann in rechtwinkliligem Verlauf in der Innenwand der Sicherungshülse 52 eingeformt sein, so dass die Verriegelung durch eine erste Axialverschiebung und anschliessende Ver4drehung des Walzenträgers relativ zum dem Gehäuseteil 28 ausgeführt wird. Wie der Darstellung in Fig. 4 zu entnehmen ist, schliesst sich im Bereich der Oeffnung 54 an die Sicherungshülse 42 tangential ein Wandteil 56 an, der ein Hindurchgreifen durch die Oeffnung 54 in Richtung zum dem Frankierkopf 4 verhindert.It is inserted through an opening 44 in the side wall 46 of the partial housing 28 of the franking machine, which runs parallel to the drawing plane in the illustration according to FIG. 1. The opening 44 has the size of the outer diameter of the centering part 48 of the centering cap 38, which can consist of individual, axially extending web parts. At one point of the centering part 48 there is a locking cam 50 which can be brought into engagement in a locking channel 52 of the housing part in the manner of a bayonet lock. A securing sleeve 52 extends perpendicular to the housing side wall 46 and encloses the roller carrier with the ink storage roller 16 as far as possible. This securing sleeve 52 has the task of preventing unauthorized access to the franking head 4 or the cliché, and thus an adjustment of the franking value, when the roller carrier with ink storage roller is removed. A lateral opening 54 in the securing sleeve 52 enables the ink storage roller to come into contact with the adjacent ink transfer roller 20. The locking channel 72 for the centering part 48 of the centering and locking cap 38 can run at right angles in the inner wall of the securing sleeve 52 be molded in, so that the locking is carried out by a first axial displacement and subsequent rotation of the roller carrier relative to the housing part 28. As can be seen from the illustration in FIG. 4, a wall part 56 tangentially adjoins the securing sleeve 42 in the region of the opening 54, which wall part prevents reaching through the opening 54 in the direction of the franking head 4.

Das freie Ende des Lagerungsbolzens 42 steht geringfügig über die Aussenfläche der Gehäuseseitenwand 46 über, so dass beim Einführen der Farbspeicherwalze durch die Oeffnung 44 des Gehäuseteiles 28 bereits vor einem möglichen Kontakt der Farbspeicherwalze mit der5 Gehäusewand 46 eine Zentrierung der Einführungsbewegung gegeben ist.The free end of the bearing pin 42 protrudes slightly beyond the outer surface of the housing side wall 46, so that when the ink storage roller is inserted through the opening 44 of the housing part 28, the insertion movement is centered before the ink storage roller 46 comes into contact with the housing wall 46.

Am freien Ende des Hohlschaftes 34 des Walzenträgers sind Einschlitzungen 66 vorgesehen, die ein radiales Einfedern beim herstellungsbedingten Aufschieben der Lagerungshülse 30 der Farbspeicherwalze 16 ermöglichen.At the free end of the hollow shaft 34 of the roller carrier, slots 66 are provided, which enable radial deflection when the bearing sleeve 30 of the ink storage roller 16 is pushed on due to the manufacturing process.

Die Fig. 5 zeigt einen Verpackungsbehälter 58, mit dem eine neue Farbspeicherwalze angeliefert werden kann, und die der anschliessenden Aufnahme der aus der Frankiermaschine entnommenen verbrauchten Farbspeicherwalze mit Walzenträger dient. Die Verpackung besteht aus einem Hülsenkörper, an dessen Bodenwand 60 ein Führungsschaft 62 angeformt ist, der beim Einsetzen der verbrauchten Farbspeicherwalze die gleiche Aufgabe übernimmt wie der Lagerungsbolzen 42 der Frankiermaschine. Entsprechend steht das freie Ende des Führungsschaftes 62 ebenfalls etwas über die Einführungsöffnung der Hülse über. Ein winkelförmiger Schlitz 64 dient der Aufnahme des Verriegelungsnockens 50 entsprechend dem Verriegelungskanal 72 in der Sicherungshülse 52 nach Fig. 3.FIG. 5 shows a packaging container 58 with which a new ink storage roller can be delivered and which is used for the subsequent reception of the used ink storage roller with roller carrier removed from the franking machine. The packaging consists of a sleeve body, on the bottom wall 60 of which a guide shaft 62 is formed, which, when the used ink storage roller is inserted, performs the same task as the bearing bolt 42 of the franking machine. Accordingly, the free end of the guide shaft 62 also protrudes somewhat beyond the insertion opening of the sleeve. An angular slot 64 is used to receive the locking cam 50 corresponding to the locking channel 72 in the securing sleeve 52 according to FIG. 3.
