Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a printing system double-sided black and white and color cards by turning the card over.
  • the known machines implementing this technology usually print either in black and white, either in color with a first pass of the card on the front and a second pass of the card reversed by printing on the back after news machine programming. Such a machine is slow and involves manual intervention intermediaries.
  • Patent DE-A-37 04 059 describes a printer for cards with a turning device in the mouth which has the drawback of being complicated to produce and to implement.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a automatic machine which allows higher rates high for black and white and color printing double-sided cards by implementing a simple, compact and easy to turn device enforce.
  • the charger 10 is of known type, it offers a capacity about 200 cards and has a security system to avoid double feeding and a triggering of the arrival of a card depending on the availability of the color station 1.
  • machines 1, 2 and 3 of Figure 1 may have significant differences from one to the other, especially with regard to the ribbon and the piloting system, but their principle and mode of achievement are similar.
  • Each turning device 4 or 7 includes ( Figures 2, 3 and 4) a horizontal drum 11 in which card 9 is inserted flat, guided by a passage groove 12, lengthwise; this drum rotates ⁇ 180 ° around its horizontal axis thanks to bearings 50 which are carried by a chassis 51.
  • the rotation of the drum 11 is obtained by a motor 23 whose output shaft carries a pinion 52 which comes to clutch on a toothed wheel 53 secured of the drum.
  • Rollers 13, 14, 15, 16 support the movement of card 9 to introduce it into the drum then, after turning over, to send it to a another work station downstream or upstream of the drum; these rollers are rotated by means motor not shown.
  • Other rollers 17, 18 ensure the movement of the card inside the drum.
  • the distance between, respectively, on the one hand, the rollers 13, 14 and 17, 18, and on the other hand the rollers 16, 17 and 17, 18 is less than the length of a card so that a card entering or leaving the turning device is successively pushed and pulled by two pairs of rollers whatever the direction of its movement.
  • the drive roller 17 has a pinion 19, 20 at each end making protruding from the outside of the drum.
  • the flipping motor 23 is powered to create a resistive torque when starting the motor 21 and up to the end of the conveyance.
  • the input or output of the card 9 of the drum 11 is detected by two optical devices 40, 41, by example two photocells, each placed at one end of the drum and outside of it.
  • the rotation of the drum 11 is detected by a optical device comprising a cell photoelectric 45 cooperating with two holes 46 and 47 present in the flange of the drum 11, diametrically opposite.
  • the initial position of the drum is checked in sending a light beam through the bore 46 which is issued by an issuer (not shown) and detected by photocell 45. After the lapse of a delay less than the rotation time, it is checked that the photocell 45 is well masked by the rotation of the flange of the drum; after the expiration of a delay greater than the time of rotation it is sent a light beam, this times through the hole 47 which, detected by the cell 45, attests to the 180 ° rotation of the drum.
  • the turning motor 23 causes the rotation of the drum 11 by ⁇ 180 ° relative to a position horizontal initial of the insertion groove 24 cards that turn the card around of its major axis.
  • the drum is provided with recognition means, directly visible 30, 31 by an operator, allowing to know the direction of the card contained in the drum, front or back.
  • An electronic control device 55 of the type microprocessor receives signals from detection devices 40, 41 and 45 and develop control signals for motors 21, 23 as well as motor drive means (not shown) of rollers 13 to 16.
  • the card 9 is introduced into the drum 11 by the external rollers, referenced 13 and 14 on one side and 15, 16 on the other side, along its major axis and in position flat. It is supported by the rollers interns 17, 18 which take over from the rollers transit external positioned less than one length Map.
  • the reversing motor 23 is activated to rotate the drum 180 ° in a one way or the other.
  • one of the two pinions 19, 20 located at the ends of the drive roller axis internal clutch on the pinion 22 of the motor 21 which, ordered one way or the other, allows direct the card downstream or upstream of the drum 11.
  • the returned card is supported by the rollers external 13 to 16 transit positioned within one card length of the internal rollers 17, 18.
  • the card is thus routed to another extension work, either upstream or downstream of the drum.
  • Electric personalization station 5 is known in herself. It is compatible with all types of existing integrated circuits or electronic chips on the market. This station 5 aims to customize the integrated circuit that was placed in a card cavity, for example to store there a secret code that only the future user of the card will know.
  • the stacker 6 which is also known, has a capacity for less equal to that of charger 10.
  • the microcomputer 8 controls the various elements of the printing system of figure 1 by through interface circuits each associated with one element, each interface circuit can include a microprocessor.
  • this microprocessor also performs the control of the steering system at from information provided by means of detection.
  • Control systems for printing machines and flipping devices revive their sensor information at the input and output of these elements and, depending on the availability of print heads, supply them with cards print either from the feeder for printing front, either from a turning device by a back print.
  • the microcomputer 8 directs the map to the station electrical customization.
  • the microcomputer 8 has specific software in order to carry out the various operations such than those listed in the diagram in Figure 5.
  • a security module does not authorize the use of the printing system only after introduction and microcomputer 8 verification of a card authorization prohibiting the use by a unaccredited person.
  • the operator after introduction and verification of his authorization card, feeds the charger 10 with cards to print and from the microcomputer 8 launches a specific printing and personalization of cards to be printed; the program specific is implemented by the different systems described in relation to Figure 1 and according to a process described in relation to Figure 5.
