Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the transport of recording media in office machines, in particular for documents in document processing equipment, in which the recording medium in each case in processing in positions outside the recording medium trajectory processing means, in particular pressure and / or reading means, is insertable and a feed shaft consists of guide means, form in the transport direction one or more consecutive, transversely extending recesses for the transversely movable to the transport direction processing means.
  • Such devices serve the purpose of recording media such as e.g. Documents (checks, forms and the like) flat and without bulges at the corners in the office machine, e.g. in a document processing device or a printer, introduce and bring to a read or write position.
  • Documents checks, forms and the like
  • special processing means are provided which are moved transversely to the transport direction of the recording medium and necessarily interrupt the course of the feed chute.
  • special processing means are provided which are moved transversely to the transport direction of the recording medium and necessarily interrupt the course of the feed chute.
  • a document processing device of the feed chute in the transport direction behind the first pair of counter roller / transport roller through a transverse recess for a printhead, wherein on the length of the movement path of the printhead, a pressure abutment is arranged.
  • a recess for a read head is provided in the transport direction behind the movement path of the print head and behind another pair of counter roller / transport roller, which is also moved on a carriage transversely to the transport direction of the recording medium.
  • the above-mentioned support level in the lower part of the device is not interrupted opposite the reading head, but the upper part of the device, in which the carriage guide must be arranged for the reading head.
  • Such a pressing device does not solve the problem of guiding a recording medium over a plurality of processing stations, which are not limited to a printhead such as a printing head. a matrix needle printhead or a thermal printhead, but also a reading means for optical character recognition. The resulting from the arrangement of such treatment stations recesses in the guide can not be compensated by the known means.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object, in office machines, the interruptions in the transport path of the recording medium, in particular of the feed shaft, have (so-called recesses) to propose means to eliminate the adverse effects of such interruptions.
  • the recesses are at least partially closed by means of elastic covers which form each inlet funnel for the recording medium in the transport direction and that in transverse movements of the processing means the respective elastic cover by the moving processing means from its occupied in the initial state each functional position during the passing of the processing means is temporarily movable into another functional position.
  • An improvement consists in the fact that over the recess for the reading means two opposing, angled covers are provided, which are located in the end positions located reading means except for a gap or touching each other.
  • the invention is also characterized in that the cover is provided with an additional, directed downward in the feed chute.
  • the invention consists in that adjacent covers for adjacent processing means are combined to form a single cover. As a result, covers, e.g.
  • the feed tray for the first inlet funnel be created from transparent, thin plastic films that form the feed tray for the first inlet funnel and opened after retraction of the recording medium in trouble-free feeding operation into the feed chute and after reaching the recesses for the processing means or displaced from this, i. be moved into a desired position.
  • the foils close in the running area of the optical reading device when the latter is in the right or left rest position and thus form at the Einsugsseite the desired inlet funnel.
  • the features limit the number of covers or foils.
  • An embodiment of the invention provides that the cover is attached to a guide plate as a guide means and extends angularly outside of the guide plate, wherein a printing medium associated cover covers the ribbon outside of the pressure field.
  • This intended for a liftable and lowerable printhead Cover is thus used successively as an inlet funnel and as a ribbon guide or as a ribbon cover, with deformed documents are recovered trouble-free and smearing of the document is prevented by the ribbon.
  • a document processing apparatus 1 with a lower device part 2 is shown (FIG. 1).
  • a recording medium 3 is moved in the transporting direction 4 by the document processing apparatus 1.
  • the record carrier 3 can also consist of vouchers, as are customary in the banking business.
  • processing means 5 are therefore required, which in the present case consist of printing means 6, e.g. a matrix needle printhead or a thermal printhead, or a reading means 7 for optical character recognition.
  • a feed shaft 8 consists of a lower support level 9 on the lower part of the unit 2 and projecting from cutouts 10 lower transport rollers 11 and from each one above Counter roller 12.
  • the support plane 9 is arranged opposite a guide plate 13 which limits the thickness of the thickest printed material and thus the height of the feed chute 8.
  • the guide plate 13 is not adjustable by itself.
  • the counter-roller 12 is resiliently adjustable and adjusts to the thickness of the recording medium 3 a.
  • the lower transport roller 11 may be driven.
  • the counter-roller 12 is driven by means of a belt drive 14 or by means of equivalent drive elements only in the case of the front pair of counter-roller and transport roller.
  • For the drive transmission is a common drive shaft 15.
  • each case two counter-rollers 12 are mounted together and connected via shafts 16.
  • the lengths of the shafts 16 are matched to the width of a recording medium 3 or a document.
  • the guide plate 13 is provided with cutouts 17 for the counter-roller 12.
  • the transport rollers (11) are all driven, only in the first pair of rollers in addition, the counter-roller (12) is also driven.
  • the processing means 5 are movable in the transverse direction 18, ie transversely to the transport direction 4 of the recording medium 3.
  • transverse direction 18 special slide guides are provided, which, however, are of no significance to the understanding of the invention in its embodiment.
  • the respective necessary aids for the processing means 5, ie the slide guides for the processing means 5, necessarily interrupt the course of the feed chute 8.
  • the feed chute 8 in the transport direction 4 behind the first pair of counter-roller 12 and transport roller 11 a transverse recess 19 interrupted.
  • Within the recess 19 is a pressure abutment 20 with a length which the movement path of the pressure medium 6 corresponds.
  • further transport rollers 11 and counter rollers 12 are now provided behind the recess 19.
  • the counter-rollers 12 are each rotatably mounted on pivot levers 21, and all pivot levers 21 are fixed to a pivot shaft 22 which is provided with a drive 23. From the pair of counter-roller 12 and transport roller 11 also follows here a recess 19, which, however, is represented by the said slide guide for the reading means 7. Again, the feed chute 8 is interrupted, so that the risk of paper jams arises.
  • the recess 19 is located in the region of the reading means 7 in the (not shown) upper device part.
  • the recesses 19 are at least partially closed by means of elastic covers 24 or 25, said elastic covers 24 and 25, e.g. consist of transparent, elastic plastic films and wherein these elastic covers 24, 25 each have their own inlet funnel 26 to avoid the paper jam by an irregular recording medium 3.
  • the system of the elastic covers 24, 25 is further designed such that the transverse movement of the processing means 5 changes the initial state (the initial position) of the covers 24 and 25 for the overflow of the processing means 5, whereby the respective inlet funnel 26 can be temporarily lost or persisted , After the overflow, i. the processing of the recording medium 3, the initial state is resumed.
  • the cover 24 is attached to a guide plate 27 as a guide means and extends outside of the guide plate 27 as angular cover 24a.
  • the cover 24 associated with the printing means 6 covers an ink ribbon 28 outside a printing field 29, thereby avoiding smears on the recording medium 3.
  • the cover 24 is provided with an additional, directed downward into the feed chute 8 bend 31 (Fig. 2, 3 and 7).
  • Adjacent covers for adjacent processing means 5, e.g. the pressure means 6 and the reading means 7 can be combined to form a single cover 24.
  • the blank of the covers 24 and 25 is shown separately in FIGS. 4 to 7.
  • the guide plate 27 is provided with the cutouts 17 and formed for the counter-rollers 12 with guide angle 32.
  • the guide plate 27 is fastened through screw holes 33 by means of screws 34 (FIG. 1) at the necessary vertical distance from the device lower part 2.
  • the made of transparent plastic, foil-like covers 24 and 25 are adapted in their outlines on the local conditions.
  • the cover 25 is provided with cutouts 35 in the area of the counter-rollers 12. Similar cutouts 36 are attached to the cover 24 ( Figures 6 and 7).
  • the covers 24 and 25 are displaceable with respect to the reading means 7 in two positions: In the end position 30 of the reading means 7 (Fig. 2), the covers 24 and 25 except for a narrow gap 37th closed. In the operating position (FIG. 1), the reading means 7 temporarily opens the covers 24 and 25 during movements in the transverse directions 18. Here an inlet funnel 26a always remains.
  • the cover 24 or the angular cover 24a is in an upper position (FIG. 2) in the end position 30 of the pressure means 6 and is pressed down during the movements in the transverse directions 18 (FIG. 3), with a chamfer 38 on the pressure abutment 20 creates a favorable investment of the angular cover 24a.
  • the ink ribbon 28 is covered outside the printing field 29, whereby smearing on the recording medium 3 can be avoided.
