Definitions
- the invention relates to a knife shaft stripping device for document shredders, whose one-piece stripping webs are arranged in the cutting unit in the cutting zone between the knives of the knife shafts.
- the invention has for its object to simplify the structure of a document shredder and to reduce the number of items and the required assembly and adjustment.
- the invention has the characterizing features of claim 1.
- the fact that the stripping webs are produced as a stripping block which can be fastened in a receptacle of a housing part of the document shredder achieves a simplified construction of the device. The cost of manufacturing the individual parts can be reduced.
- the arrangement of the scraper block with the scraper bars obtains the required stability by assigning support bars to the scraper bars, which are arranged on the opposite housing part.
- the scraper webs and the support webs are provided with support surfaces which lie one on top of the other in the assembled state of the cutting mechanism, such that the scraper webs are supported and the scraper block is fixed in its position.
- the receptacle for the stripping block is trough-shaped and the stripping block is arranged in the receptacle with play ensures that certain manufacturing tolerances of the knife shafts can be compensated for automatically.
- the scraper block positions itself automatically when the cutting unit is installed according to the position of the knives of the knife shafts.
- the stripping block as a molded part, in particular as a plastic molded part.
- Scraper webs molded from plastic also have the required stability due to the design described.
- the support webs are injection-molded in one piece with a plastic housing part.
- a further simplification of the structure of the cutting mechanism can be achieved.
- the receptacle for the stripping block is preferably arranged on the lower housing part of the document shredder, while the support webs are arranged on the upper housing part.
- the support surfaces of the scraper webs and the support webs are then above the cutting zone of the cutting unit in the area of the paper feed, so that any edges in the area of the support surfaces can in no way negatively influence the function of the scraper webs. This preferred solution reliably rules out a jam of shredded paper particles in the cutting unit.
- bearing surfaces for the knife shafts are also injected into the lower housing part or into the upper housing part in addition to the receptacle for the stripping block and the supporting webs, the construction and in particular also the assembly of the cutting mechanism can be further simplified considerably. This also applies in particular if the receptacle for a drive motor and bearing surfaces for a transmission are also injected. All of the essential components of the cutting unit are then correctly positioned in relation to one another without an adjustment having to be made. As already stated, manufacturing tolerances of the knife shaft can, if necessary, be compensated for by arranging the stripping block with the stripping bars in its receptacle with play.
- 1 denotes a cutting device of a document shredder.
- the cutting unit 1 has two knife shafts 2, on which, in a manner known per se, interlocking knives 3 are arranged for comminuting the writing material not shown in the drawing.
- a knife shaft stripping device consisting of two rows of stripping webs 4 and associated supporting webs 5 is arranged on the two knife shafts 2.
- the stripping webs 4 are combined to form a stripping block 6.
- the stripping webs 4 engage in the spaces between the knives 3 of the knife shafts 2 and fill them. This prevents shredded documents from entering these gaps.
- the stripping webs 4 are comb-shaped and molded in one piece from plastic to form a stripping block 6.
- a trough-shaped receptacle 8 is arranged on the lower housing part 7 for the stripping block 6.
- the stripping block 6 is held in the receptacle 8 in the assembled state of the cutting unit 1.
- the stripping block 6 is preferably arranged with play in this receptacle 8, so that then manufacturing tolerances of the knife shaft 2 are automatically compensated.
- the support webs 5 have on their upper end face support surfaces 9 which are arranged at an angle to one another.
- Corresponding support surfaces 10 are arranged on the end faces of the scraper webs 4. In the assembled state of the cutting unit 1, d. H. When the upper housing part 11 is placed on the lower housing part 7, the support surfaces 9 and 10 lie one on top of the other.
- the support surfaces 10 of the support webs 5 engage in the support surfaces 9 of the wiper webs in such a way that the wiper webs 4 are supported both laterally and in the vertical direction.
- the stability of the cutting mechanism 1 is further increased by reinforcing ribs 12 arranged on the receptacle 8.
- the interlocking of the stripping webs 4 and the supporting webs 5 also increases the overall stability of the document shredder housing consisting of the lower housing part 7 and the upper housing part 11 in an advantageous manner.
- a paper inlet shaft 13 is arranged in the upper housing part 11 for feeding the paper to be shredded.
- bearing surfaces 14 for the knife shafts 2 are arranged in the lower housing part 7 and in the upper housing part 11. These bearing surfaces 14, like the receptacle 8 for the stripping block 6 and the supporting webs 5, are injected into the lower housing part 7 and into the upper housing part 11.
- bearing surfaces 17 for a gear 18 are also injected into the upper housing part 11 and the lower housing part 7.
- the drive motor 16 drives the knife shafts 2 of the cutting mechanism 1 via the gear 18.
- the paper For shredding, the paper, not shown in the drawing, is introduced into the paper inlet shaft 13 and then reaches the knives 3 of the knife shafts 2. The overlapping knives 3 shred the paper, the stripping webs 4 preventing the paper from entering the spaces between the knives 3 occurs. The shredded paper then passes through a paper channel 19 formed between the stripping bars 4 and supporting bars 5 arranged on both sides into a collecting container, not shown in the drawing.
- the scraper webs 4 are supported by the support webs 5, despite their preferred design as a flexible plastic part, they are precisely fixed in their position. As has surprisingly been shown, it is ensured on the basis of the design according to the invention that the stripping webs 4 remain in their position during the comminution process. Even under the action of the forces exerted by the paper to be shredded, there is no such deformation of the scraper webs 4 molded from plastic that malfunctions could occur.
- the design of the stripping webs 4 and the supporting webs 5 as a plastic injection molded part results in the advantage of a very inexpensive production.
- the individual parts of the document shredder are very easy to assemble in the inventive design.
- the stripper block 6 it is ultimately only necessary to insert the stripper block 6 into its receptacle 8, the knife shafts 2 into its bearing surfaces 14, the drive motor 16 into its receptacle 15, and the transmission 18 into the lower housing part 7 insert into its bearing surface 17. Then the upper housing part with the support webs 5 and the corresponding bearing surfaces is placed.
- the stripping block 6 is aligned and fixed automatically on the support surfaces 10 of the support webs 5 and on the knife shafts.
