Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement with a printer and a support, e.g. a printer table, and with a paper web, which is fed from a supply to the printer carried by the support and is fed from there to a tray, a paper web guide consisting of at least two, at least partly parallel, preferably rigid guide parts, e.g. in the form of a J, which at one end form a slot facing the printer and at the other end a slot that allows the paper web to enter or exit.
  • a paper web guide consisting of at least two, at least partly parallel, preferably rigid guide parts, e.g. in the form of a J, which at one end form a slot facing the printer and at the other end a slot that allows the paper web to enter or exit.
  • the slot which allows the paper web to enter is located below the support carrying the printer.
  • the slot is covered by the underlay.
  • the paper web which has to be moved through the space between the paper web guides and fed to the feed elements of the printer during the threading, is subject to frictional forces which are further increased when the paper web is deflected from the horizontal direction of movement.
  • the invention has for its object to design an arrangement of the type mentioned in such a way that a simple and quick change or insertion of the paper web is made possible without the aforementioned inconveniences.
  • the invention proposes to allow the guide parts to end freely with their slot, which allows the paper web to enter or exit, so that the slot is freely accessible by the operator's fingers when inserting a sheet. It is achieved by the invention that the operator's fingers can directly touch the edges of the insertion slot without the operator having to move.
  • the slot is directly accessible, not covered and not covered by any other obstacle.
  • the feed forces on the paper web when inserting a new paper web can be applied in the immediate vicinity of the insertion slot of the paper web guide, so that the paper can no longer evade the feed plane under the feed pressure.
  • the guide parts are adjustable in length, e.g. by telescoping, insertable intermediate parts or the like.
  • the guide can be adapted to practically any length of the support for the printer, thereby ensuring that the insertion slot is actually freely accessible, preferably at the end, i.e. comes to rest in the area of the free edge of the underlay.
  • the light distance between the guide parts by adjusting means, such as adjusting screws, cam levers or the like. is adjustable.
  • the guide parts or openings or the like are formed parallel to the feed direction of the paper web. for manual paper web transport. In this way the threading of the paper web between the guide parts and the transport to the printer can be further improved.
  • the security that can be achieved by the measure according to the invention when feeding the paper web to the printer table also makes it possible, in a further embodiment of the invention, to arrange a plurality of guide parts, essentially parallel to one another, in order to be able to guide one of different paper webs to the printer in each guide thus formed.
  • each guide with retaining members for example clamps, clamps or the like. is provided for the end of the paper web not required. In order to it is ensured that the paper web that is not required in each case does not slide out of the guide and has to be threaded again.
  • the introduction of a new paper web in an arrangement in which a plurality of paper web guides are arranged one above the other provides that the guide lying under the top paper web guide or the guides lying there are open to the side. This enables a new paper web to be inserted from the side, so that the paper web already threaded in the uppermost paper web guide does not prevent the insertion of another paper web into an underlying paper web guide.
  • the guide located under the top paper web guide or the top paper guide or the bottom guides is or are arranged so that they can be moved laterally around a new paper web next to the to be able to insert a stationary paper web from the side.
  • the guide parts are mounted on the table in a height-adjustable manner, around the table facing the printer at different heights bring to. As soon as the slot has reached the correct height, the guide is fixed opposite the printer table or the surface on which the printer is standing.
  • the height adjustability can be achieved in that the guide parts in the area of the paper insertion slot are pivotally mounted on the table in a pivot bearing and can be locked in any angular position relative to the table plane, e.g. by clamping.
  • the introduction of a new paper web can also be further improved in that a mechanical drive, for example in the form of drivable ones, is provided on the guide parts Rollers, grippers or the like is provided for transporting the paper web.
  • a mechanical drive for example in the form of drivable ones
  • the drive for the transport of the paper web between the paper web guides has a freewheel position for the paper web transport effected by the printer.
  • the freewheel position can be achieved in that the drive is brought into and out of engagement with the paper web.
  • the additional drive should only be effective for pulling or threading a new paper web, etc. until the paper web has reached the printer's feed rollers.
  • the drive for the transport of the paper web can be switched off.
  • the guide parts which go upward from the printer and are used for guiding the printed paper web away, have a viewing opening, which is preferably covered with transparent material. In this way, a perfect control of the paper web is also possible behind the printer, i.e. after printing has taken place.
  • the guide parts preferably with their longer legs, can be arranged in a recess in the table when the guide parts are in the form of a J.

  • FIG. 4 shows a printer 1 with the feed opening at the rear, in the case of a table 2 with an opening 4 as in FIG. 1.
  • the guide 6 with its parts 7, 8 is each in the form of a J; the longer legs 9, which are fixed on the underside of the table 10, are connected to the shorter legs 11 via web parts 15.
  • the guide 6 can have a pivot bearing 16 at the free end of the legs 9 in order to adapt the guide, namely its exit slot, to different heights of the feed opening of the printer 1.
  • the other end of the legs 9 can be fixed in the height position required in each case by means of locking elements, in the example shown a screw spindle.
  • a guide according to FIG. 4 is also provided in the arrangement according to FIG. 6, the longer legs 9 of the guide 6 extending between the upper side 3 of the table 2 and the lower side of the printer 1 and ending with the front wall thereof.
