Definitions
- the invention relates to a printing device as found in fax machines, printers and the like.
- the invention relates to a printing device comprising at least one removable element, and generally disposable, such than a roll of printing tape, a roll of backing paper or a toner cartridge, combined with an information carrier relating to this element, for example an electronic chip card, and a information carrier reader.
- a printing device comprising at least one removable element, and generally disposable, such than a roll of printing tape, a roll of backing paper or a toner cartridge, combined with an information carrier relating to this element, for example an electronic chip card, and a information carrier reader.
- the removable element and the information carrier can be linked to one another. the other or independent of each other.
- the first realization limits the risk of loss of the information carrier, which would make it unusable the associated item.
- a roll, tape or paper, rotatably mounted it proves difficult to read the support information, in the case it is mounted on the roller, during the rotational drive of this one.
- the present invention therefore provides a more satisfactory solution for block the information carrier in rotation.
- the invention relates to an assembly of a roll of printing consumable and information carrier relating to roller, for use in a printing device, in which the information carrier includes a receiving through obviously a rotation locking finger, provided on the device, allowing it to be locked in rotation in the reading position, and the roller supports a elastic lug which can extend in the obviously through, in order to temporarily secure the roller and the support in rotation, and be pushed back by the locking finger of the device.
- the information carrier and the roll are first provisionally secured in rotation, by means of the elastic lug, received in the recess crossing. Then, under the action of the rotational drive of the roller, the support is driven in a rotational locking position, in which the finger, enters the through recess of the support and pushes back the lug elastic outside the recess, under the action of the pushing means, in thus blocking the information carrier in rotation.
- the information carrier and the roller are first secured in rotation then, during the rotation of the roller, the information carrier is automatically blocks in rotation.
- the printing device is here integrated into a fax machine. For the sake of clarity, only the elements of the device necessary for the understanding of the invention will now be explained.
- the device comprises a housing 1, for receiving a rotary roller 20 and removable, printing ribbon and an information carrier 40 relative to roller 20, two axes 4, 5 supports of roller 20, two springs 2, 3 for pushing the roller 20 and a smart card reader 6, for read support information 40.
- the roller 20, of axis 21 comprises an axis 22 supporting the winding of the ribbon, tubular, and two flanges 23, 24, respectively mounted on the two ends of the support axis 22 and integral in rotation with the latter.
- One of the end flanges 23 comprises a housing 25 for receiving information carrier 40, a first central axis 28, for receiving the information carrier 40, and a second central axis 29, for receiving the winding support axis 22.
- the housing 25 is delimited by a bottom wall 26, in the form of a disc, and a cylindrical side wall 27.
- the receiving axis 29 has a diameter outside substantially equal to the inside diameter of the support axis winding 22, the latter being intended to be fitted on the former. It is further provided, through the wall 26 and the axes 28, 29, a passage crossing 30 for receiving the support axis 4.
- the axes 28, 29 and the passage crossing 30 are of axis 31, perpendicular to the wall 26 at its center.
- the other flange 24 is similar to the flange 23, except that it does not includes no information support housing, nor receiving axis of this support.
- the bottom wall 26 supports an elastic lug 32, designed to secure temporarily in rotation the roller 20 and the information carrier 40, as explained below.
- the pin 32 is formed by a part here rectangular of the bottom wall 26, cut and folded along one of the sides of the rectangle, and can be moved, against a recall action elastic, from a deployed position, in which it projects inside the housing 25, in a retracted position, in which it extends in the through opening 33 of the bottom wall 26 corresponding to the cutting.
- the information carrier 40 comprises a support card 41, in the form of disk, and an electronic chip 42, mounted on this card 41, comprising a memory for storing information relating to the roll. This is in the type of information relating to the characteristics of the ribbon (nature, color, ).
- the support card 41 of substantially outside diameter smaller than the inside diameter of the housing 25, provides an opening central 43 for receiving the axis 28 and a through recess 44 of receiving the elastic lug 32 and a finger 11 for blocking the rotation of the information carrier 40, explained below.
- the recess 44 and the lug 32 are arranged so that the lug 32 can snap into place in the recess 44, when the information carrier 40, mounted on the axis receiving 28, and the flange 23 are positioned in a position relative angular determined.
- the housing 1 for receiving the roll 20 comprises two walls transverse 7, 8, perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the housing 1, corresponding to that of the axis 21 of the roller 20 when it is put in place in its housing 1.
- the two support pins 4, 5 protrude respectively outside the two transverse walls 7, 8, perpendicular to them, inside the housing 1, and are arranged at each other's right.
- the winding support axis 22 is intended to be fitted on the two support axes 4, 5, when the roller 20 in the housing 1.
- the support axis 4, connected to a motor rotational drive, is intended to rotate the roller 20.
- a sleeve 9 is slidably mounted on the support axis 5 and extended, at its end closest to the wall 8, by a flange 10 for supporting the springs 2, 3.
- the springs 2, 3 are fixed, at one of their ends, to the wall transverse 8 and resting, at their other end, against the flange 10. They extend parallel to the support axis 5, on either side thereof, and are intended to push the roller 20 towards the transverse wall 7.
- the finger 11 for blocking the rotation of the information carrier 40 projects outside the transverse wall 7, inside the housing 1. It is intended for permanently block the information carrier 40 in rotation.
- the relative arrangement of the rotation locking pin 11 and the reader smart card 6 and the relative arrangement of the through recess 44 of the information carrier 40 and the electronic chip 42 are such that after placement of the roller 20, with the information carrier 40, in the housing 1 and positioning of the information carrier 40 in the position of reading, the finger 11 extends into the recess 44 and the reader 6 is arranged in look at the chip 42 and connected to it, as will be explained below.
- the information carrier 40 Before installing the roller 20 in the housing 1, the information carrier 40 on the flange 23 of the roller 20, engaging it on the support axis 28 through its central opening 43 and by orienting the chip 42 towards the outside of the housing 25. The information carrier 40 then extends in its housing 25 and pushes back the lug 32 in the opening 33, in position erased.
- the roller 20 is then placed in the housing 1 by fitting it in place, by its end integral with the flange 23, on the support axis 4 then, by its end secured to the flange 24, on the support axis 5, against the action of recall of springs 2, 3.
- the roller 20 is pushed towards the transverse wall 7 and the support 40 is forcedly pressed against the rotation locking finger 11, the axis 31 of the flange 23 and the axis 21 of the roller being combined.
- the flange 23 is rotated by its initial position at the position of provisionally secured flange 23 and of information carrier 40.
- Information carrier 40 is in support forced against the locking finger 11, under the pushing action of the springs 2, 3 and is thus locked in rotation, by friction against the locking finger 11.
- the support 40 pushes the lug 32 in the erased position, against elastic return action.
- the lug 32 is deployed, by elastic return, and extends into the through recess 34.
- the flange 23 and the information carrier 40 secured in rotation, are rotated from the position of temporary attachment of the roller 20 and the support 40 to the position of blocking in rotation of the information carrier 40.
- the finger 11 extends into the through recess 44 of the support 40 while pushing back the pin 31, under the action of the springs 2, 3 which push the roller 20 towards the transverse wall 7.
- the information carrier 40 is therefore permanently locked in rotation in the reading position, in which the reader 6 is arranged opposite the electronic chip 42 and connected to it.
- roller 20 and the flanges 23, 24 continue to be rotated, while the support 40 is locked in rotation, in the reading position.
- Reader 6 can then read the information from the support 40, immobilized, even during the rotation drive of the roller 20.
- the user before installing the roller 20 in the printing device, the user assembles the support himself 40 on roller 20. This could be done in the factory, during the manufacture of the roller 20, the latter being delivered to the user with the pre-assembled information carrier. We could also, in the factory, secure in rotation the information carrier and the roller, as in figure 2.
- the invention is equally applicable to a roll of printing paper or any other such roller.
