Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for transferring ink onto the cliché of the franking head of a franking machine with an exchangeable ink storage roller and at least one ink transfer roller, and a packaging container for the ink storage roller.
  • 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.
  • replacement is tedious, since contact with the paint by hand or when storing, packing, throwing away, etc. and contamination cannot be avoided.
  • the workflow is mechanically complicated.
  • the present invention has for its object to improve such a device so that the replacement of the ink storage roller is easy, fast 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.
  • the design according to the invention makes it possible to remove the ink storage roller with the roller carrier from a special packaging container by means of a handle and to insert it into the franking machine without changing the handle.
  • the used ink storage roller can also be inserted into the empty packaging container so that it can be thrown away without the risk of undesired ink transfer.
  • the franking machine 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 arrow 6, so that the cliché 8 rolls around 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.
  • 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.
  • the franking head together with the device 12 for ink transfer is enclosed by a common housing 28 indicated by dashed lines.
  • the attachment, i.e. 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 located at one end of the roller support 36, while at the other end a centering and locking cap 38 with a web-shaped handle 40 is provided.
  • 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 dye has been used up.
  • 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.
  • a locking cam 50 which can be brought into engagement in a locking channel 72 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 having unauthorized access to the franking head 4 or the cliché, and thus one, when the roller carrier with ink storage roller is removed To prevent adjustment of the franking value.
  • a lateral opening 54 in the security 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 be formed at right angles in the inner wall of the security sleeve 52, so that the locking by a first axial displacement and subsequent rotation of the roller carrier relative to the housing part 28 is carried out.
  • a wall part 56 tangentially adjoins the securing sleeve 52 in the region of the opening 54 and prevents a reaching through through the opening 54 in the direction of the franking head 4.
  • the free end of the bearing bolt 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 in the housing part 28, the insertion movement is centered before the ink storage roller can come into contact with the housing wall 46.
  • 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.
  • 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.
