Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for transporting printed sheets in an installation for controlling the quality of securities, in particular banknotes, in a control zone comprising at least one detector.
  • patent FR 1,489,113 describes a method and a device according to which sheets of uncut banknotes are first checked visually to allow the operator to mark defective banknotes, showing color errors or spots . The sheets are then cut into banknotes which pass on a first cylinder in front of detectors controlling the side of the banknote facing outwards and reacting to the control marks carried by the banknotes, as well as to errors in centering the image. Then, the banknotes are transferred to a second cylinder where detectors control their other side. Defective tickets are automatically withdrawn from the transport chain and replaced by faultless tickets. Finally, an automatic installation allows the controlled tickets to be counted and packaged.
  • a complete quality control must also include a transparency control or a reflection control to examine, in particular, the position of the watermark, the security thread, and all the other criteria verifiable by transparency or reflection.
  • the sheets must be in the planar state, therefore must be conveyed on a transport chain provided with clamps which grip the front edge of the sheet to make it pass in front of the detection system by transparency, or reflection, while said sheet slides in the transfer plane.
  • the present invention proposes to build a chain transport device which guarantees that the sheet takes on a perfectly flat state during its passage in front of the detector system, without risk of damaging the impression recently produced on the sheets.
  • the device according to the invention is characterized by the characterizing clause of claim 1.
  • the device according to the invention is characterized by the characteristics of claim 2.
  • the advantage of this device is to allow the printed sheet to be perfectly maintained by the vacuum system in the transfer plane defined by the support bars, as it passes below the detector, while avoiding a collision between the suction nozzles and the clamps when the latter reach the nozzles.
  • FIG. 1 represents a schematic view of the device, adapted to the example of a transparency control.
  • Figure 2 is a partial top view of the grab bars and movable arms in the control area.
  • FIG 3 is a partial perspective view of the control area according to Figure 2, with the arms in the operating position.
  • Figure 4 shows the same view as Figure 3, but with the arms in the retracted position relative to the transfer plane.
  • the transport chain 1 is provided with bars 2 with clamps 2a for gripping the front edge of each of the sheets to be examined 3 and for sliding them onto a support formed by support bars 4, 4 ', between a detector 5 and a lamp 8.
  • the support bars 4, 4' extend longitudinally in the direction of transport and are spaced a distance of about 15 to 20 mm.
  • the clamps 2a which grip the sheets and whose number is, for example, twelve, move partially in the intervals between the grab bars. All the leaves, only one of which is shown in the figure, follow one behind the other in determined and constant intervals.
  • the detector 5 is used for a transparency check, that is to say for checking the existence of details and characteristics which only appear through transparency.
  • the support bars 4, 4 ′ are provided with a slot 6 located in the sheet control area, the bars located in front of the slot 6 are defined by the reference 4 while those located after the slot are defined by the reference 4 '.
  • This area control has the form of a line transverse to the direction of transport of the sheets.
  • an air blower is provided by means of a bar 9, with nozzles 9a directed towards the sheet 3 in the region of the slot 6.
  • the grab bars 4 are provided at their end limiting the front of the slot 6, suction nozzles 4a aligned along a transverse line located in the control zone.
  • suction nozzles 4a aligned along a transverse line located in the control zone.
  • movable arms 10 provided at their end with nozzles 10a. In the operating position, the nozzles 10a and 4a form a single suction line arranged transversely to the direction of transport of the sheets, this suction line being located in the plane of transfer of the sheets.
  • auxiliary suction nozzles 10a are indeed necessary to guarantee a perfectly flat state of the sheets in the control zone and to avoid a risk of deformation in the spaces between the grab bars 4.
  • the nozzles 4a of the support bars 4 are connected to a vacuum system (not shown) and the nozzles 10a are connected to a vacuum duct 11 which is also connected to this vacuum system; the vacuum force is adjusted so that the suction allows the sheet to be held perfectly without deformation.
  • the connection between the nozzles 4a and the vacuum is not shown in the drawing.
  • an actuation mechanism is provided for these arms.
  • the arm 10 and vacuum duct 11 assembly is mounted movable relative to the support bars 4 and, for this purpose, is fixed to the end of a lever with two arms 12a, 12b.
  • This lever 12a, 12b is articulated on a stationary shaft 13 and the end of the second arm 12b is connected by a joint 14 on a transmission bar 15 the other end of which is itself connected by a joint 16 at the end a control lever 17.
  • the control lever 17 is mounted on a fixed pivot 18 and it is integral with a lever arm 19 also articulated on the pivot 18.
  • a follower roller 19a which cooperates with a cam 20, with its bulge 20a.
  • This cam 20 is mounted on an axis 20b whose rotation is synchronized with the speed of advance of the chain 1 such that the cam 20 makes a turn while the chain 1 advances the length of an interval between two bars 2 to pliers, therefore between two successive leaves.
  • the other end of the control lever 17 is articulated at 21 to a threaded rod 22 provided at its end with a stop 26 which bears against a fixed stop 23.
  • the position operator illustrated in Figures 1 and 3 is defined by the contact of said stops 23, 26, and can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the stop 26 on the threaded rod 22 and on which it is screwed.
  • the shape of the cam 20 and the synchronization of the rotational movements of the axis 20b and the advance of the chain 1 are such that the arms 10 remain in their operating position, namely with the nozzles 10a aligned and in the same plane that the nozzles 4a of the support bars 4 during the whole time that the sheet 3 scrolls above the slot 6, therefore in the control zone where it is perfectly maintained in the transfer plane by the action of the nozzles suction 4a, 10a.
  • the cam 20 with its bulge 20a causes the lever 17 to tilt, against the action of the spring 24, which causes the displacement of the transmission arm 15, which causes in turn the tilting of the bent lever 12a, 12b around the pivot 13, and consequently the downward movement of the ends of the arms 10 with their nozzles 10a.
  • This displacement can be, for example, a few millimeters. This prevents the clamps 2a from touching the arms 10 when they pass through the slot 6.
  • the roller 19a has exceeded the bulge 20a of the cam 20 and the levers 17, 19, under the action of the spring 24, reset the arms 10 operating position via the transmission arm 15 and levers 12a, 12b, this operating position being defined by the support of the stop 26 against the fixed stop 23. Furthermore, in this operating position, it is not necessary that the roller 19a touches the cam 20 in its part outside the bulge 20a.
