Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un procédé et une installation pour acheminer et traiter ou travailler en continu un support souple déformable de préférence vierge, tel qu'une bande en papier stockée en rouleau ou en pli ou analogue, destiné à passer dans une imprimante d'ordinateur avec emploi d'unités autonomes capables de réaliser des impressions différentes en noir ou toute autre couleur pour réaliser une pluralité de feuilles ou documents, en imprimant sur ladite bande des impressions commandées par l'imprimante d'ordinateur en collaboration avec des moyens de lecture et de détection.The present invention relates to a method and an installation for conveying and continuously processing or working a flexible, preferably virgin, flexible support, such as a paper strip stored in a roll or fold or the like, intended to pass through a computer printer. with the use of autonomous units capable of producing different prints in black or any other color to produce a plurality of sheets or documents, by printing on said strip prints controlled by the computer printer in collaboration with reading means and detection.
Jusqu'à présent, les centres informatiques utilisent toujours des documents pré-imprimés sur un support souple déformable tel qu'une bande par exemple en papier, et l'imprimante de l'ordinateur complète le document pré-imprimé par les données contenues dans la mémoire de l'ordinateur.Until now, data centers have always used documents pre-printed on a flexible deformable support such as a strip, for example of paper, and the printer of the computer supplements the pre-printed document with the data contained in the computer memory.
Les documents ainsi obtenus peuvent ensuite être façonnés par exemple par une unité autonome de façonnage pouvant réaliser des découpes et/ou perforations. Ces documents peuvent être ensuite remis ou expédiés au destinataire ou rester sous forme de pile, c'est-à-dire en paquet de pile, pour être utilisés sous cette présentation dans différents services ou bureaux.The documents thus obtained can then be shaped for example by an autonomous shaping unit capable of making cuts and / or perforations. These documents can then be delivered or sent to the addressee or remain in the form of a stack, that is to say in a stack package, to be used in this presentation in different departments or offices.
Pour le cas où les données provenant de l'ordinateur et imprimées au moyen de l'imprimante sont toutes différentes et variables, suivant la programmation voulue, il est actuellement impossible de faire varier à souhait et de manière irrégulièrement programmable des impressions de base et généralement en couleur en fonction du passage dans l'imprimante de l'ordinateur, et donc après celle-ci.In the case where the data coming from the computer and printed by means of the printer are all different and variable, depending on the desired programming, it is currently impossible to vary at will and irregularly programmable basic prints and generally in color according to the passage in the printer of the computer, and therefore after this one.
Par exemple, si on se trouve en présence d'une liasse ou d'une bobine de papier pré-imprimés par exemple avec des documents "factures", tous les documents de cette pile ou bobine de documents seront les mêmes, il ne sera pas possible d'y trouver d'autre document à des endroits très différents et irréguliers, qui seraient par exemple: une note d'envoi, une lettre d'accompagnement, une lettre publicitaire, un contrat, et ce dans des coloris différents tandis qu'en outre, des façonnages, tels que des découpes, perforations, pourraient être différents dans ces documents et de manière aléatoire ou irrégulière. D'autre part, on a essayé.d'éliminer la nécessité de partir de bobines ou de liasses de papier pré-imprimé en réalisant cette impression en incorporant une unité d'impression autonome avant l'imprimante de l'ordinateur.For example, if we are in the presence of a bundle or a reel of pre-printed paper, for example with "invoice" documents, all the documents in this stack or reel of documents will be the same, it will not be it is possible to find other documents in very different and irregular places, which would be for example: a dispatch note, a cover letter, an advertising letter, a contract, and this in different colors while furthermore, shapes, such as cutouts, perforations, could be different in these documents and in a random or irregular manner. On the other hand, attempts have been made to eliminate the need to start from reels or bundles of pre-printed paper by carrying out this printing by incorporating a stand-alone printing unit before the printer of the computer.
Cependant, bien que cette solution permettre de partir de papier vierge qui peut être utilisé par la suite pour différentes impressions, cette solution présente toujours l'inconvénient de ne permettre la réalisation que d'un même type de document, par exemple des factures et il ne sera pas possible d'y trouver d'autres documents à des endroits très différents et irréguliers, comme indiqué précédemment, comme une note d'envoi, une lettre d'accompagnement, une lettre publicitaire, un contrat, et ce dans de coloris différents ou même des façonnages différents et de manière aléatoire ou irrégulière.However, although this solution makes it possible to start from blank paper which can be used subsequently for different prints, this solution still has the disadvantage of only allowing the production of the same type of document, for example invoices and it it will not be possible to find other documents there in very different and irregular places, as indicated previously, such as a dispatch note, a cover letter, an advertising letter, a contract, and this in different colors or even different shapes, randomly or irregularly.
Ainsi, il est nécessaire de procéder à l'impression par passes successives, par exemple tout d'abord une série de factures, puis ensuite d'une série de lettres d'accompagnement puis ensuite de lettres publicitaires, etc. Cette manière de procéder présente l'inconvénient majeur de nécéssiter encore par la suite un mixage des divers documents imprimés pour les réunir dans une même enveloppe pour transmission à leur destinataire.Thus, it is necessary to proceed to printing by successive passes, for example first of all a series of invoices, then then of a series of cover letters then then of advertising letters, etc. This way of proceeding has the major drawback of still requiring a mixture of the various printed documents thereafter in order to combine them in the same envelope for transmission to their recipient.
La présente invention a donc pour but de résoudre ou d'éliminer tous les inconvénients de la technique antérieure en fournissant un nouveau procédé et une nouvelle installation permettant d'acheminer et traiter ou travailler en continu un support souple et déformable de préférence vierge, tel qu'une bande en papier stockée en rouleau ou en pli ou analogue, destiné à passer dans une imprimante d'ordinateur avec emploi d'unités autonomes capables de réaliser des impressions différentes en noir ou toute autrecou- leur pour réaliser une pluralité de feuilles ou documents, en imprimant sur ladite bande des impressions commandées par l'imprimante d'ordinateur en collaboration avec des moyens de lecture et de détection, caractérisé en ce que ladite bande défile dans une succession d'unités autonomes chacune pourvue d'un microprocesseur et de propres moyens d'impression de textes en recto et/ou verso et de moyens de marquage, de lecture et de façonnage.The present invention therefore aims to solve or eliminate all the drawbacks of the prior art by providing a new method and a new installation making it possible to route and process or work continuously a flexible and deformable support, preferably blank, such as '' a paper strip stored in a roll or fold or the like, intended to pass through a computer printer with the use of autonomous units capable of producing different prints in black or any other color to produce a plurality of sheets or documents , by printing on said strip prints controlled by the computer printer in collaboration with reading and detection means, characterized in that said strip passes in a succession of autonomous units each provided with a microprocessor and own means for printing texts on the front and / or back and means for marking, reading and shaping.
Le brevet FR-A-2439677 décrit un procédé non continu, parce qu'il faut arrêter l'ensemble plusieurs fois, c.à.d. pour changer les unités autonomes d'impression (clichés), pour le nettoyage et l'encrage du cylindre, etc.The patent FR-A-2439677 describes a non-continuous process, because it is necessary to stop the assembly several times, i.e. to change the self-contained printing units (clichés), for cleaning and inking the cylinder, etc.
Le procédé selon la présente invention est au contraire parfaitement continu, sans aucun arrêt et sans aucune perte de temps.The process according to the present invention is on the contrary perfectly continuous, without any stopping and without any loss of time.
Le brevet JP-A-56-127 286 repose sur la lecture de la position des lignes d'édition de l'imprimante.Patent JP-A-56-127,286 is based on reading the position of the printer's edit lines.
Une fois le comptage effectué, l'ordre de perforation est accordé. Il s'agit d'un contrôle simple aller et retour et tout repose simplement sur la position des impressions.Once the count has been made, the punching order is granted. It is a simple round trip check and everything is simply based on the position of the prints.
Il n'y a pas d'analyse, pas de comparaison, par d'interprétation, pas de calcul, pas de gestion de l'information, pas de commande de mouvement, ni en position, ni en temporisation, comme c'est le cas du procédé et de l'installation selon la présente invention.There is no analysis, no comparison, no interpretation, no calculation, no information management, no movement control, neither in position nor in timing, as is the case of the method and installation according to the present invention.
Les caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront à la lumière de la description explicative faite en référence aux dessins annexés dans lequels:
- -la figure 1 représente schématiquement une installation selon l'invention comprenant par exemple deux unités autonomes d'impressions capables de réaliser deux impressions différentes,
- -la figure 2 représente une vue de dessus partielle représentant les marquages pouvant être effectués de préférence par l'imprimante de l'ordinateur,
- -les figures 3 à 5 représentent divers documents personnanlisés obtenus par l'installation et le procédé selon l'invention.
- FIG. 1 diagrammatically represents an installation according to the invention comprising for example two autonomous printing units capable of producing two different prints,
- FIG 2 shows a top view partial representing the markings which can preferably be carried out by the printer of the computer,
- FIGS. 3 to 5 represent various personalized documents obtained by the installation and the method according to the invention.
En référence à la figure 1, une installation selon l'invention pour acheminer et traiter ou travailler en continu un support soupte déformable qui peut être vierge ou pré-imprimé pour lequel on doit effectuer des impressions ou façonnages complementaires ou partiels, tel qu'une bande par exemple en papier stocké en rouleau ou en pli, ou analogue, est caractérisée en ce qu'elle comprend une ou plusieurs unités autonomes d'impression capables de réaliser des impressions différentes.With reference to FIG. 1, an installation according to the invention for conveying and continuously processing or working a deformable valve support which can be blank or pre-printed for which additional or partial printing or shaping must be carried out, such as a strip, for example of paper stored in rolls or folds, or the like, is characterized in that it comprises one or more autonomous printing units capable of producing different prints.
Selon l'exemple représenté sur la figure 1, on a une unité d'impression qui comprend deux groupes d'impression G1 et G2 permettant de réaliser deux impressions différentes. Naturellement, l'installation selon l'invention peut comprendre un nombre x de groupes d'impression ou un nombre x d'unités d'impression autonomes, permettant de réaliser x impressions différentes; le nombre des unités d'impression est donc quelconque et permet de préférence de réaliser l'impression de n textes différents et/ou de m coloris différents et/ou de p dessins différents. De même, l'installation selon l'invention peut comprendre de la même manière une ou plusieurs unités autonomes de façonnage capables de réaliser des façonnages différents, tels que perforations, découpes, etc.According to the example shown in FIG. 1, there is a printing unit which comprises two printing groups G 1 and G 2 allowing two different prints to be produced. Naturally, the installation according to the invention can comprise a number x of printing units or a number x of autonomous printing units, making it possible to produce x different prints; the number of printing units is therefore arbitrary and preferably allows printing of n different texts and / or m different colors and / or p different designs. Likewise, the installation according to the invention may likewise comprise one or more autonomous shaping units capable of carrying out different shapings, such as perforations, cuts, etc.
En référence à la figure 1, on voit que chaque unité ou de préférence groupe G de l'unité 2 comprend un cylindre de travail M et un contre cylindre D monté sur des bras 6 articulés pivotant autour du point F et pourvus de vérins 4 dont le piston 5 est relié au bras 6 de sorte que par actionnement du vérin 4, entre une position en fonctionnement représentée pour le groupe G2, en appui contre le cylindre de travail M et une position hors fonctionnement représentée pour le groupe G1 où le contre cylindre D n'est pas en appui contre le cylindre de travail M, comprend que la bande de papier 8, de préférence provenant de l'imprimante de l'ordinateur (non représentée) qui est en permanence en appui contre le contre-cylindre D, peut être sélectivement amenée en appui contre le cylindre de travail M par exemple du group G2 de l'unité autonome 2 par simple actionnement des vérins 4 de chaque groupe G de chaque unité par des moyens de commande sélective constitués par un microprocesseur P comprenant de préférence une mémoire centrale.With reference to FIG. 1, it can be seen that each unit or preferably group G of unit 2 comprises a working cylinder M and a counter cylinder D mounted on articulated
Les moyens de commande sélective peuvent également comprendre avantageusement des moyens de détection H1, H2, de marquage sur le support souple tel que les marquages 10, 12, représentés à la figure 2, qui sont de préférence réalisés par l'imprimante de l'ordinateur. Les marquages 10 sont par exemple destinés à commander l'impression désirée et ces marquages 10 sont donc respectivement lus, transmis au microprocesseur P qui, après analyse, donne l'ordre au vérin 4 articulant les cylindres de contre-partie D d'effectuer une rotation en synchronisation parfaite avec le cylindre de travail M et précise la position exacte où doivent se trouver les deux cylindres au moment du contact. Il,- en est de même dans le cas du marquage 12 qui contient les instructions nécessaires à la réalisation du façonnage adéquat.The selective control means can also advantageously comprise detection means H 1 , H 2 , of marking on the flexible support such as the
La présence de marquages sur le support souple 8 peut être remplacée par un programme approprié qui peut être affiché soit manuellement, soit par transfert sur bande magnétique contenant les instructions nécessaires au microprocesseur, ce qui le fait fonctionner de manière irrégulière, cyclique ou aléatoire.The presence of markings on the
Cette manière de procéder peut être réalisée dans une chaîne intégrée avec une imprimante d'ordinateur. On préfère cependant l'insertion de l'installation selon l'invention dans la chaîne intégrée de l'imprimante de l'ordinateur en direct après le passage dans l'imprimante de l'ordinateur.This procedure can be carried out in an integrated chain with a computer printer. However, it is preferred to insert the installation according to the invention into the integrated chain of the computer printer directly after passing through the computer printer.
Enfin, il peut être prévu un moyen de détection H3 vérifiant la bonne synchronisation du travail, c'est-à-dire de l'impression d'un texte, d'une coloration, d'un dessin; et/ou du façonnage tel que les perforations, les découpes, etc... suivant un troisième élément qui est le support souple constitué de préférence par une bande de papier. On comprend donc que cette installation permet de réaliser le procédé selon l'invention précédemment mentionné. L'invention permet donc de pouvoir avoir à disposition des feuilles de papier blanc ou éventuellement des impressions ou des façonnages incomplets, de de pouvoir personnaliser chaque document, suivant sa destination après son passage dans l'imprimante, ce qui était absolument impossible jusqu'à présent par le système utilisé dans toutes les imprimeries de papier en continu.Finally, there may be provided a detection means H 3 verifying the good synchronization of the work, that is to say the printing of a text, a coloring, a drawing; and / or shaping such as perforations, cutouts, etc. according to a third element which is the flexible support preferably consisting of a strip of paper. It is therefore understood that this installation makes it possible to carry out the method according to the invention previously mentioned. The invention therefore makes it possible to be able to have available sheets of white paper or possibly incomplete printing or shaping, to be able to personalize each document, according to its destination after it has passed through the printer, which was absolutely impossible until present by the system used in all continuous paper printing plants.
Il est donc possible selon l'invention, sans aucun risque d'erreur, par l'application du procédé et de l'installation selon l'invention, de procéder à l'assemblage ou à la composition d'un ensemble de documents différents par leur présentation, coloris, logos, dessins, textes, perforations, et ce en provenance d'une même bande de papier et se succédant dans l'ordre défini par l'ordinateur au moment du passage au travers de son imprimante.It is therefore possible according to the invention, without any risk of error, by applying the method and the installation according to the invention, to proceed to the assembly or the composition of a set of different documents by their presentation, colors, logos, drawings, texts, perforations, and this from a single strip of paper and succeeding in the order defined by the computer at the time of passage through its printer.
En effet, l'ordinateur commande en pratique la totalité des opérations puisque soit il réalise un marquage du support souple matérialisant sur le support les informations nécessaires au travail effectué ensuite par les moyens de commande sélective selon la présente invention des diverses unités autonomes, soit on utilise un programme préalablement réalisé et qui peut être transféré sur bandes magnétiques lues par le micro-processeur P, ledit programme étant adapté à partir de la connaissance préalable du programme en mémoire dans l'ordinateur et qui détermine l'ordre et le contenu des messages qui seront imprimés par l'imprimante de l'ordinateur, pour distinguer et personnaliser chacun des documents. Ainsi, l'invention est applicable directement dans le domaine de la bureautique pour distinguer et personnaliser complètement chaque document.Indeed, the computer controls in practice all of the operations since either it carries out a marking of the flexible support materializing on the support the information necessary for the work then carried out by the selective control means according to the present invention of the various autonomous units, or uses a program previously produced and which can be transferred to magnetic tapes read by the microprocessor P, said program being adapted from prior knowledge of the program stored in the computer and which determines the order and content of the messages will be printed by the computer printer, to distinguish and personalize each of the documents. Thus, the invention is directly applicable in the field of office automation to distinguish and completely personalize each document.
Aucun mixage n'est plus nécessaire car à la suite du travail effectué selon l'invention en utilisant les mêmes fonctions, repères, la même électronique du moins dans ses principes, on peut coupler à la suite les uns des autres des documents tout à fait différents mais destinés à la même personne.No mixing is necessary any more because following the work carried out according to the invention by using the same functions, marks, the same electronics at least in its principles, one can couple after the ones of the documents completely different but intended for the same person.
Par contre antérieurement il fallait prendre plusieurs documents dans des piles différentes, après passage en imprimante d'ordinateur, pour les réunir et les mettre dans une même enveloppe, et ce d'une manière manuelle ou automatique.On the other hand, before, several documents had to be taken in different stacks, after going through a computer printer, to gather them and put them in the same envelope, either manually or automatically.
Les figures 3 à 5 donnent des exemples de réalisation obtenus par l'installation et le procédé selon l'invention.Figures 3 to 5 give examples of embodiments obtained by the installation and the method according to the invention.
Un autre exemple de réalisation est le suivant: à la réception d'une bande de papier contenant par exemple onze documents de format A4, en les coupant l'un après l'autre, on va obtenir l'ensemble de toute une correspondance bien spécifique et parfaitement personnalisée.Another example of embodiment is as follows: upon receipt of a strip of paper containing for example eleven A4 documents, by cutting them one after the other, we will obtain all of a very specific correspondence and perfectly personalized.
Le premier document sera par exemple une lettre de présentation coloris rouge. Le deuxième sera une invitation de coloris bleu mais avec perforation d'une partie du document qui devient détachable et en rouge, et devant être retournée à l'expéditeur dûment complétée. Le troisième sera constitué par une facture à fond vert avec une description en noir, suivi de quatre copies identiques dont l'une d'entre elles contient une découpe, etc.The first document will, for example, be a red cover letter. The second will be an invitation in blue color but with perforation of a part of the document which becomes detachable and in red, and having to be returned to the sender duly completed. The third will consist of a green background invoice with a description in black, followed by four identical copies, one of which contains a cutout, etc.
La série suivante peut être composée non pas de onze documents mais de quatre par exemple avec des perforations, des coloris, des découpes qui ne seront plus de tout dans le même order ni sur les mêmes documents.The following series can be made up not of eleven documents but of four for example with perforations, colors, cutouts which will no longer be everything in the same order or on the same documents.
La série suivante peut être réalisée de même documents tout à fait différents des séries précédentes.The following series can be produced from the same documents quite different from the previous series.
Naturellement, selon l'invention tous les documents peuvent se placer dans une seule bande de papier, l'un après l'autre dans n'importe quel ordre d'impression, celle-ci pouvant être réalisée en recto et/ou verso, coloris différents, textes différents, l'ordre des documents étant variable à l'infini ainsi que les façonnages tels que perforation, découpe dans le document choisi dans la série.Naturally, according to the invention, all the documents can be placed in a single strip of paper, one after the other in any printing order, this can be done on the front and / or back, color different, different texts, the order of the documents being infinitely variable as well as the shaping such as perforation, cutting in the document chosen in the series.
