Definitions

  • This invention belongs to the domain of automatic distributor machines for articles with a parallelepiped format and with two large flat surfaces (newspapers, magazines, books, boxes, etc.), machines intended to be located in public or private places frequented by a large number of people.
  • it belongs to that category of machines where the dispensing is based on the action of a wheel rotating above the upper surface of the article to be dispensed.
  • the machine that is the subject of this patent consists of a system capable of displacing the last article among those in the stack without the other articles being displaced.
  • the physical principle is based on the upper surface of the last article being acted on by a pulling force F greater than the localized resisting force between the 1st and 2nd article, R1, at the same time ensuring that this force is less than the localized resisting force between the 2nd and 3rd article, R2, thereby avoiding both articles from being pulled along.
  • This force can be created in two different ways:
  • the greater advantage shown by this invention lies in the simplicity of the solution and therefore the low manufacturing cost, as well as the mechanism's high degree of reliability. All this is the result of a particular way of orientating and locating the articles with respect to the extractor wheel, and of the rigorous choice of coefficients of friction for the materials, of the normal force, of the geometry and of the way in which the different elements making up the machine are created.
  • the basic execution of the invention concerns the operation of the wheel by means of a reducer motor mounted on an assembly that slides over some vertical guides in such a way that the whole unit drops down as the articles are dispensed. This makes it possible for the whole to be in contact with the last article with a force N, whose value is constant and independent of the height of the stack of articles.
  • Another particular feature of this method is the provision of an assembly with two collars, one at each end sliding over a pair of vertical guides.
  • the alternative would be a wheel with a series of edges along its periphery and also a multiple exit detector which activates a device that creates the additional force needed to retain the surplus article.
  • This method is also characterized by the arrangement of the wheel in relation to the articles.
  • the plane of the wheel is oblique to the folded edges in such a way that the objects to be dispensed make a small turn, thereby optimizing their exit.
  • the assembly holding the reducer motor consists of a projecting bar with a single collar on the end sliding in the guide and some elements that prevent the whole unit from rotating around the guide.
  • Figure 1 shows the set of forces involved in the process of extracting the articles by means of a rotating wheel.
  • Figure 2 is a graphic representation of the effect that we call intermeshing.
  • Figure 3 is a schematic representation of the element that creates an additional resisting force preventing the exit of several articles. The arrangement of the points on the periphery of the wheel can also be seen.
  • Figure 4 shows the arrangement of a system that prevents multiple exit by means of a detector. This consists of an oscillating needle inside a coil which stops when it receives a signal.
  • Figure 5 shows a mechanical device that prevents the exit of several articles. It consists of a hinged element with grooves and a spring in such a way that it allows the article to exit without becoming obstructed.
  • Figure 6 shows the relative situation of the wheel/articles for a specific solution.
  • Figure 7 is a diagram of one of the solutions for the extractor system.
  • Figure 8 shows a second solution.
  • FIG. 9 Shows the general arrangement of the machine.
