Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for arbitrarily setting the type wheels of the date stamp in the impression cylinder of a franking machine according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention further relates to a method for setting the named type wheels.
  • franking machines In their printing cylinder, franking machines generally have a date stamp in addition to the value stamp, the date setting of which has to be carried out daily.
  • a switching device for switching the date stamp of a franking machine forward is known from the document CH 418 705.
  • This switching device comprises a rotary knob, by the rotation of which a cam disc unlocks the type wheels of the date stamp, switches on and finally locks them again.
  • the device works manually and does not allow the date to be reset. The device is therefore unsuitable for correcting an incorrect setting or for setting a pre-dating.
  • a further adjusting device for the type wheels of the date stamp of a franking machine is known from the document EP 105 424.
  • This device has adjusting tappets actuated by electron magnets, which adjust the type wheels in stages in the manner of a ratchet drive by means of gear wheels.
  • the adjustment plungers either grip from the outside - 2 - Fall l 657
  • the specified solution is comparatively simple and fulfills the requirements for good operability and automatic date / date creation.
  • the figure shows an electrically / mechanically combined block diagram of a franking machine.
  • the electrical active connections are identified by single arrows, the mechanical ones by double arrows.
  • values in particular franking values, can be entered into an electronic storage and display unit 12 - 3 - Fall l ' 657
  • the toothed rack 24 is longer than the toothed racks 23 and, in addition to the ten setting or locking positions 0 to 9, has one for setting the assigned value digit rollers 27 .
  • Extension on through which the rack 24 can be brought into an eleventh locking position is Associated with this extension.
  • the interaction means 33 are shown in the figure as mechanical AND gates.
  • they are designed, for example, as movable, spring-loaded levers which are actuated by the cam or trigger 31, which can snap into one recess of the toothed racks 23 and, for example, engage the type rollers 36 via a further toothed rack.
  • Interaction means 33 bring the type rollers 36 of the date stamp 37 into direct or indirect engagement with an associated toothed rack 23. At the same time, the type rollers 36 are unlocked and can now be set to any value via the gear 17 and the toothed racks 23. As soon as the rack 24 is removed again from its eleventh latching position, the said interventions between the racks 23 and the type rollers 36 are canceled again and the type rollers 36 are locked against rotation.
  • the device described so far works as follows: In the idle position, the type rollers 36 of the date stamp 37 are blocked and are out of engagement with the assigned toothed racks 23.
  • a date setting process can now be initiated by input via the keyboard 11.
  • all racks 23 are first either brought into their starting position, which corresponds to the value number 0. Or they are preferably brought into the position that corresponds to the starting position in the previous date setting process.
  • This previous starting position can preferably be stored in a memory and can be called up again at the start of the new date setting process.
  • the toothed rack 24 is brought into its eTft detent position.
  • the type rollers 36 are unblocked via the trigger 31 and the interaction means 33 and come into engagement with the toothed racks 23.
  • the type rollers 36 can now be made by suitable inputs via the keyboard 11, by actuating the slip clutch gear 14, via the gear 17 and the toothed racks 23 - 5 - Fall l ' 657
  • the rack 24 is again taken out of the eleventh locking position, whereby the engagement of the type rollers 36 in the toothed racks 23 is canceled and the type rollers are blocked again.
  • the starting positions of the toothed racks 23 are then stored and all the toothed racks 23, 24 are advantageously returned to the basic position corresponding to the value number 0.
  • the trigger 31 in the eleventh latching position of the rack 24 brings only one type roller 36 of the date stamp 37 into engagement with the associated rack 23, in particular the roller with the ones' digits of the day.
  • the other type roles 36 in particular for the tens digits of the day and the month, are connected to the former, a type role 36 by a transmission gear, as is known from mechanical counters. In this case - 6 - Fall l 657
  • any date setting is carried out serially day after day with a tens and monthly transfer by possibly repeatedly pushing the rack 23 mentioned, the rack 24 then having to be briefly removed from its eleventh rest position each time. With regular date tracking, however, only a single step forward must be carried out.
