Definitions

  • Toothed belts are fitted with carrier pins which engage in the perforations on the edge of the record carrier for transporting the tape-like record carrier.
  • Toothed belt with pins arranged centrally on it for a perforated record carrier in a stop printer via which a single record carrier web is transported through the printer.
  • a ramp is arranged between the actual transport area and a belt wheel driving the toothed belt, said ramp lowering the toothed belt and thus the pins having a collar and a conically tapering tip in front of the belt wheel relative to the recording medium.
  • the pins slide out of the transport holes as they circulate around the belt wheel without damaging them. It is therefore the object of the invention to provide a transfer printing station for an electrographic printing device, which makes it possible to transport two parallel recording medium webs arranged side by side from recording media provided with edge perforations through the transfer printing station and to print on them in parallel.
  • the transfer printing station is said to be able to process recording media of different tear strength without damage to the perforation holes.
  • the recording medium can be moved in a simple manner via a paper guide element over which the recording medium runs. However, it is also possible to maintain the paper path and to lower the transport pins accordingly, for example by changing the position of the pulley.
  • FIG. 3 shows a schematic illustration of a tractor drive with driving pins arranged on the outer surface of the belt
  • Figure 6 is a schematic representation of a tractor drive with guide elements.
  • An electrographic printing device for printing on tape-shaped recording media 10 of different bandwidth contains an electromotive photoconductor drum as intermediate media 11.
  • a band-shaped intermediate carrier for example an OPC band, or a magneto-styli arrangement as described, for example, in EP-B1-0 191 521 can also be used.
  • the various units for the electrophotographic process are grouped around the intermediate carrier 11.
  • a charging device 12 in the form of a charging corotron for charging the intermediate carrier 11; a character generator 13 with an LED comb for character-dependent exposure of the Intermediate support 11, which extends over the entire usable width of the intermediate support 11; a developer station 14 for coloring the character-dependent charge image on the intermediate carrier 11 with the aid of a one- or two-component developer mixture; a transfer printing station 15, which extends over the width of the intermediate carrier 11 and with which the toner images are transferred to the recording medium 10.
  • a cleaning station 16 is provided with a cleaning brush integrated therein with the associated suction device and a discharge device 17.
  • the intermediate carrier 11 is driven by an electric motor and moved in the direction of the arrow in printing operation.
  • the printing device contains a fixing station 18 which is arranged downstream of the transfer printing station 15 in the transport direction of the recording medium and which is designed as a thermal printing fixing station, with a heated fixing roller 19 with an associated pressure roller 20, and guide rollers 21 which are arranged downstream of the fixing station and which serve, among other things, as output elements serve elements for a stacking device 22 for the recording medium 10.
  • a fixing station 18 which is arranged downstream of the transfer printing station 15 in the transport direction of the recording medium and which is designed as a thermal printing fixing station, with a heated fixing roller 19 with an associated pressure roller 20, and guide rollers 21 which are arranged downstream of the fixing station and which serve, among other things, as output elements serve elements for a stacking device 22 for the recording medium 10.
  • the fusing station shown there are also other fusing stations, e.g. possible with a heated or unheated inlet saddle or a cold fixing station.
  • the tape-shaped recording medium 10 is made up of pre-folded, continuous paper provided with edge perforations and, starting from
  • the recording medium is preferably transported via a transport device 25 assigned to the transfer printing station 15 in the form of transport belts 26 provided with pins 32, which are guided into the perforations 31 on the edge of the recording medium via pulleys in the form of toothed pulleys 27 10 intervene. Furthermore, in the housing area of the printing device between the storage area 23 and the fixing Station 8 is arranged a deflection device 28, via which the recording medium 10 is returned from the fixing station 18 to the transfer printing station 15.
  • the electrographic printing device is suitable for printing on recording media with different bandwidths.
  • the intermediate carrier 11 (photoconductor drum) has a usable width which corresponds to the largest possible recording medium width (e.g. a format DIN A3 landscape). This width corresponds to twice the A4 bandwidth. This makes it possible in the area of
  • the recording medium 10 in the region of the belt wheel 27 is shifted or lifted from the transport position A to such an extent, as shown in FIG. 4, that the perforation holes 31 are in one Roll position B in the area of the tapered head part 34.
  • the size of the displacement V depends, among other things, on the angle of inclination of the tapering head 34, the radius of the belt wheel 27, the belt thickness and the transport position of the recording medium. It is to be coordinated depending on these parameters so that when immersing and sliding out the pins during the

Abstract

Afin de pouvoir monter deux entraînements tracteurs de deux bandes de support d'enregistrement à étroite proximité l'un de l'autre dans la zone de la station de duplication d'un dispositif d'impression électrographique, les pointes de transport (32) sont assujetties sur la surface extérieure des courroies de transport (26). Des éléments (35) de guidage du papier situés dans la zone des roues (27) de guidage des courroies soulèvent le support d'enregistrement (10) dans la partie supérieure conique (34) des pointes de transport (32), ce qui évite que les perforations marginales (31) ne se déforment.
