Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a device for collecting endless forms.
  • the present invention aims a device for collecting endless forms which excludes said disadvantage.
  • the invention concerns a device for collecting endless forms of the type which is provided with a positioning element for collecting and positioning the free edge of the first sheet of an endless form to be collected, characterized in that it is further provided with guide means to supply the endless forms and in that these guide means are provided with a freely rotatable guide element from which the endless forms are guided to the positioning element and the stacking space of the device.
  • this guide element preferably consists of two plates hanging against one another, such that the endless forms pass through these plates.
  • the invention concerns a device 1 for collecting endless forms 2.
  • said device 1 has a frame 3 with a bottom plate 4 and guide means 5 which are situated at a certain distance above the bottom plate 4.
  • the device 1 is provided with a positioning element 6 for collecting and correctly positioning the free edge 7 of the first sheet 8 of the endless form 2 to be collected.
  • the positioning element 6 is provided with a recess 9 in which the edge 7 of the first sheet 8 can be collected. As a result, the edge 7 of this sheet 8 is kept as it were in a particular place, as a result of which the endless form 2 automatically assumes the right place.
  • the positioning element 6 preferably has a V-shaped recess 9. Use can be made to this end of a V-shaped funnel 10, for example made of metal, preferably aluminium sheet.
  • the positioning element 6 is preferably at least partly countersunk in the bottom plate 4.
  • the positioning element 6 is preferably replaceable, such that positioning elements with different dimensions can be used.
  • the positioning element may hereby consist of a funnel 10 which fits loosely in an opening 11 in the bottom plate 4.
  • the funnel 10 is fixed in a holder 12 which rests on the frame 3.
  • the holder 12 makes it possible for the positioning element 6 to be easily removed.
  • the positioning element 6 may also exclusively consist of a V-shaped funnel 10.
  • the funnel 10 is preferably provided with bent edges 13 and 14 with which it can be suspended in the opening 11.
  • the edges 13 and 14 of the funnel hereby rest on the upper surface 15 of the bottom plate 4.
  • grooves 16 and 17 may be provided in the upper surface 15 for the free ends of the edges 13 and 14.
  • the device may be provided with two vertical guides 18 and 19 in between which the endless forms 2 are stacked in a zigzag manner.
  • These guides 18 and 19 can preferably be moved, such that the mutual distance A can be altered in between as a function of the height H of the sheets of the endless forms 2 to be collected.
  • the guides 18 and 19 can be attached to or be part of slidable supports 20 and 21 which are provided with bent edges 22 which clutch at the edge 23 of the bottom plate 4.
  • positioning means can be provided such as marks or grooves 24 in the upper surface 15 of the bottom plate 4.
  • the positioning element 6 is hereby situated in the central part or the middle of the bottom plate 4.
  • the above-mentioned guide means 5 preferably have a freely rotatable guide element 25 which consists of two bent plates 26 and 27 hanging against one another. These plates have parts 28 hanging down which split at their top side and are bent over almost 135° so as to form parts 29 which hang down in a slanting manner.
  • the plates 26 and 27 are freely suspended around supports 30 and 31, such that the parts 28 of the plates 26 and 27, due to the weight of the parts 29, and as a result of the ensuing lever action, are pressed against one another.
  • the endless forms 2 are directly supplied to the stacking space from between the plates 26 and 27, without any further guides being provided between these plates and the positioning element 6.
  • One or several guides are preferably provided above the guide element 25 in order to guide the endless forms 2 up to in between the plates 26 and 27, such as for example plates 32A and 32B which can be adjusted at an angle, which together can form a funnel-shaped opening.
  • another guide 33A can be provided to supply the endless forms 2, such that the device 1 can be placed against the back of a printer or such.
  • a guide 33B can be provided on the adjustable plate 32B, which prevents the forms 2 from going over the collecting system.
  • the device is also provided with means which make it possible to adjust the guide element 25 in height.
  • these means consist of a telescopic support 34.
  • the means for the height adjustment are preferably designed such that the bottommost end 35 of the guide element 25 can be positioned at a height H1 above the lowest point 36 of the recess 9 which is bigger than the height H of one sheet of the endless form 2 and smaller than twice the height H, this in relation to the forms 2 for which the device 1 was designed. Also in the case where the height H1 cannot be altered, it is preferably chosen such that the above-mentioned condition is met.
  • the guide element 25 is preferably shifted in relation to the positioning element 6, which is indicated in the drawing by means of the distance D. Tests have proven that such an eccentric erection makes it even more certain that the first sheet 8 drops in the right direction.
  • the guide element 25 is preferably shifted in the direction from which the endless forms 2 are supplied.
  • An endless form 2 to be collected slides over the guide 33A and the adjustable plate 32A up to in between the parts 28 of the plates 26 and 27.
  • the free edge 7 of the first sheet 8 is then collected in the positioning element 6, after which the different sheets are stacked in a zigzag manner.
