Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a printing device, in particular a ticket printing device according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • the present invention is concerned with a ticket printing device with which both a strip-shaped printed matter, preferably fed from a supply roll, and a separately printed, card-shaped printed matter, particularly in the form of single tickets, can be printed.
  • a known, commercially available printing device (CH-A-626 832) has a printing unit, a supply roll of a strip-like one Printed matter, which is formed by a paper strip, and a transport device for the paper strip.
  • a printing unit When the paper strip is printed, it is transported in the feed direction by the transport device relative to the printing unit.
  • the paper strip It is also possible to print single tickets that have been introduced into the printing unit from the outside with the known printing device. In this mode, however, the paper strip must be out of engagement with the transport device and the printing unit. If, after printing a single ticket, the paper strip is to be printed again, it is necessary to bring it into engagement with the printing unit and the transport device. Because of this requirement, it is not possible to use the known printing device for alternating use for printing single tickets and paper strips.
  • the object of the present invention is to develop a printing device of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that it can be used to print both the strip-shaped printed matter and an individually feedable, card-shaped printed matter.
  • the blocking device by means of the blocking device and insertion opening for the card-shaped printed matter designed according to the invention, a commercially available printing device of the type described at the outset for alternately printing both a strip-shaped printed matter and a paper strip, as well as a card-shaped printed matter, such as a single ticket.
  • the blocking device When printing on the strip-shaped material to be printed, the blocking device remains inoperative, so that the printing device in this operating mode has an unchanged mode of operation compared to the prior art.
  • the blocking device for the strip-shaped material When inserting a card-shaped printed material through the insertion opening in the second operating mode, the blocking device for the strip-shaped material is actuated.
  • the card-shaped material to be printed When the card-shaped material to be printed is inserted, it comes to lie between a part of the printing unit and the strip-like material on the one hand and a part of the transport device and the strip-like material on the other hand.
  • the card-shaped printed material is conveyed through the transport device, the card-shaped printed material sliding on the strip-shaped printed material.
  • the card-shaped printed matter covers the strip-shaped printed matter relative to the printing part of the printing unit during the printing process, so that only the card-shaped printed matter is printed.
  • the printing device according to the invention can be used for further printing on the strip-shaped printed matter.
  • the printing device When used as a ticket printing device, the printing device according to the invention works with the printed matter defined in claim 2.
  • the embodiment of the printing device according to the invention specified in claim 5 enables a particularly simple replacement of a used supply roll of the strip-shaped printed matter by a new supply roll with simple insertion of the strip-shaped printed matter by the block device, transport device and the printing unit.
  • a further preferred embodiment is the subject of claim 6.
  • a preferred embodiment of the printing device according to the invention is described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawing. It shows: The only figure is a sectional view through a printing device according to the invention.
  • the printing device shown in the figure which can be used in particular as a ticket printing device, has a printing unit 8, 9, 11, which comprises a print head 8, printing needles 9, an ink ribbon 10 running in front of the needles 9 and a stop bar 11.
  • the print head 8 is guided on two slide rails 7.
  • a transport device 1, 2 has a driven transport roller 1 and a non-driven transport roller 2, which is arranged on an arm 3.
  • the arm is mounted on a shaft 4 on the housing 5 of the printer.
  • the arm 3 is acted upon by a spring (not shown) in such a way that the non-driven transport roller 2 rests resiliently against the driven transport roller 1.
  • a roll holder 13 is arranged on a cover 16 which is pivotable relative to the housing 5 and carries a supply roll 6 by means of a paper roll holder 22 of a paper strip 21.
  • the paper strip 21 extends from the supply roll 6 via a pressure shaft 15 and the non-driven transport roller 2 and the stop bar 11 to a slot 18 arranged in a cover 19 of the housing 5 for guiding out the paper strip.
  • the cover 19 has an insertion opening 17 for a card-shaped printed material 20.
  • the insertion opening 17 is arranged in such a way that the card-shaped printed material 20, which is formed in particular by single tickets or single tickets, both between the needles 9 of the print head 8 and the stop bar 11 and between the driven transport roller 1 and the non-driven transport roller 2 of the transport device 1 , 2 is insertable.
  • the introduction of the card-shaped printed matter is limited by a stop bracket 12.
  • a blocking device for the strip-shaped printing material 21 is formed by the pressure shaft 15 on the roller holder 13 and by a pivotable, electrically actuable crankshaft 14.
  • the printing device works as follows: For printing on the strip-shaped printed material 21, the non-driven transport roller 2 lies against the strip-shaped printed material 21, which is conveyed by the driven transport roller 1, under the action of the spring-loaded lever 3.
  • the blocking device 14, 15 is not activated.
  • the operating mode of the printing is either automatically assumed by the printing device by detecting the insertion of the card-shaped printed matter or by pressing a mode selection key (not shown).
  • the movable arm 3 is brought out of its basic position into an actuated position pivoted clockwise in the figure, as a result of which between the ink ribbon 10 and the stop bar 11 on the one hand and between the driven transport roller 1 and the non-driven transport roller 2 on the other hand, an opening is created.
  • the card-shaped printed material 20 is pushed into the printing unit up to the stop 12, whereupon the movable arm 3 assumes its basic position. In this basic position, both the strip-shaped printed material 21 and the card-shaped printed material 20 are located between the transport rollers 1, 2.
  • crankshaft 14 is pivoted electrically against the pressure shaft 15 via an electromagnet (not shown), so that the strip-shaped printing material 21 is clamped between these parts.
  • the driven transport roller 1 slides the card-shaped printed material 20 over the strip-shaped printed material 21 in the direction of the insertion opening 17, while the card-shaped printed material 20 is printed by the printing unit 8, 9, 11.
  • the pivotable cover 16 When the supply roll 6 of the strip-shaped material to be printed 21 is applied and has to be replaced, the pivotable cover 16 is opened. Here pivots together with the pivotable cover 16, the roller holder 13 and thus the pressure shaft 15 in a position spaced from the crankshaft 14. In this position, the feed opening of the printing unit, which is defined by the transport rollers 1, 2, is freely accessible, so that a new insertion of the strip-shaped printed matter 21 is not a problem.
  • the pivotable cover 16 of the housing 5 is subsequently closed, the strip-shaped printed material 21 is automatically brought into the desired position between the pressure shaft 15 and the crankshaft 14.
  • the printing device according to the invention has been explained with reference to a ticket printing device, it can be used wherever, in addition to a strip-shaped printed matter, a card-shaped printed matter, that is to say divided into separate parts, is to be printed.
  • any other printing unit can also be used.
  • the use of a type wheel printer, an inkjet printer, a laser printer or another printer suitable for the desired purpose is possible.
  • the transport device can also comprise a plurality of transport wheels or conveyor belts.
  • Any device with which it is possible to fix the strip-shaped printed matter against the transport effect of the transport device is possible as a blocking device.
