Definitions

  • the invention is based on a device known from DE-A-34 42 123 for removing the bottom plate of a stack of plates guided in a shaft with the features listed in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the front edge of the lowermost plate lies on a flat contact surface in the circumference of a first push-off element designed as a rotating body.
  • the rear edge of the lowermost plate rests on a rotatably mounted roller, in the area of which two further push-off members are provided, one of which can be moved back and forth as a slide in the plane of the lowermost plate and the other is designed as a rocker.
  • the first pushing element initially displaces it a short distance to the rear, while the slide dodges this movement and the rocker is in a rearward-facing basic position.
  • the front plate edge is released from this push-off element and the slide moves the rear edge of the plate back into its original position.
  • the rear edge of the plate rolls on the stationary roll, whereby the plate is inclined.
  • the front edge of the plate is supported on an inclined sliding surface, while only the one designed as a swing arm second pushing element acts against the rear edge of the plate and pushes the plate along the sliding surface in the direction of a conveyor located underneath.
  • two rear pushing members are required for pushing off the bottom plate, each of which requires its own drive and the movement of which must be coordinated.
  • the object of the invention is to simplify the known device and to make it suitable for the removal of cards, in particular plastic cards serving as data carriers.
  • the invention enables the card to be withdrawn from the stack while avoiding large-area friction and prevents the cards from being bent or otherwise deformed when they are separated.
  • the object of the invention has the advantage of a structurally simpler arrangement of the push-off members and their drive control.
  • special features of the invention are listed.
  • both push-off members are rotatable about mutually parallel axes and together form a crank mechanism, as defined in claim 2.
  • the rear end of the card is slightly pinched during the first short push-off operation, so that the card cannot fall down arbitrarily when released by the front push-off member.
  • DE-A 40 41 866 discloses a device which can be rotated step by step about a horizontal axis and has a plurality of card stacks for carefully loading a stack of card stacks.
  • This device contains cassettes, each of which receives a stack of cards, and has guide means for holding the cassettes, so that the cassettes are held essentially vertically in the same position during their entire circulation.
  • the invention according to claims 5 to 8 simplifies this known device and contains the principle of operation that a turntable arranged above the shaft is formed with several shafts and is driven so that in the rest position of the turntable, a filling shaft is aligned with the shaft.
  • a shaft is symbolically represented by (1), between the shaft walls (26) of which there is a stack of cards (2), the bottom card (3) of which is to be removed and separated.
  • the stack of cards (2) rests on the front edge of the card (4) on a flat support surface (10) of a first push-off element (6) and on the rear edge of the card (5) on a strip-shaped support (17).
  • a gap (18) extends in the area of the rear card edge (5), the clear width of which is dimensioned such that the lowermost card (3) can be inserted into the gap (18).
  • At least one, preferably two resiliently supported balls (19) engage in the gap (18). The spring force is set so that the balls are pushed away when the bottom card (3) is inserted into the gap (18), but the spring force is so great that the rear edge area (5) of the balls (19) after insertion is clamped in the gap (18).
  • the first push-off element (6) is driven so that it can rotate about the axis (12) in the direction of the arrow.
  • the step-like end of the flat support surface (10) hits against the front edge of the card (4) and causes the lower card (3) to be displaced in the direction of the arrow (8) (see FIG. 2), the rear end of the card (5) in dips the gap (18).
  • the first push-off element (6) actuates the second push-off element (7), which is designed as a rocker and can be rotated back and forth about the axis (13). Both axes (12, 13) are directed parallel to each other.
  • the coupling (14) is connected to the two via joints (15, 16) Push-off elements (6,7) connected. This creates a four-link chain or crank mechanism, in which the first push-off element (6) serves as a driving element in the sense of a crank.
  • the coupling (14) is fixed in its articulation in such a way that its push-off nose (11) dodges the rear edge of the card (5), while the lower card (3) is brought into the position according to FIG. 2 by the first push-off element (6).
  • the card (3) is detached almost continuously from the next card in the card stack (2) and only the rear card edge (5) is clamped in the gap (18) by the balls (19).
  • the front edge of the card (4) can detach from the support surface (10) of the first push-off element (6) and move downward.
  • the movement of the coupling (14) is reversed in the direction of the arrow (9).
  • the push-off nose (11) of the second push-off element (7) hits the rear edge of the card (5) and pushes it out of the gap (18).
  • the lower card (3) can be free drop, receiving a movement impulse in the direction of the arrow (9) due to the rotary movement of the push-off nose (11).
  • the card (3) can now fall in a controlled manner onto a conveyor, not shown, below the card stack (2), which brings the card to a subsequent working position.
  • This arrangement described is particularly suitable for separating plastic cards that serve as data carriers.
  • the embossments and imprints customary in such data carriers are largely spared by the card deduction according to the invention because surface friction and deformation are avoided.
  • the separating device according to the invention can, however, also be used with any other cards if they have sufficient rigidity to be able to carry out the push-off movement by the first push-off member (6).
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 The performance of the separating device according to the invention is extremely high, which is why a device is shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, which enables the slot to be refilled quickly with card stacks (2).
  • several filling shafts (21) are arranged on a turntable (20), which can be loaded with card stacks (2) from above by hand.
  • the slot (1) according to FIGS. 1 to 3 is located under one of the filling shafts (21).
  • the turntable (20) is at a standstill, the stack of cards is then lowered into the slot (1) below can be without single cards can come loose and tilt.
  • an arrangement consisting of two supports (23) is provided in the slot (1) according to the invention, which in the position according to FIG.
  • the supports (23) are rotatable in opposite directions about the axes (25). They have cylindrical contact surfaces (24) which roll on the lower card when the supports (23) are lowered and therefore also act gently on the cards (2).
  • the card stack (2) In the position according to FIG. 8, the card stack (2) has received its lower support position according to FIG. 1.
  • the supports (23) with their support surfaces (24) have been guided outwards through corresponding cutouts in the shaft walls (26), so that they cannot hinder the separation of the cards.
  • This described first filling process of the shaft (1) presupposes that there are no cards (3) in the shaft (1).
  • the supports (23) remain in the ineffective position according to FIG. 8.
