Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for unlocking a compartment of an opening mechanism, and in particular a thermal printing mechanism, the unlocking device being intended to facilitate the loading and unloading of the paper used in such a device. thermal printing.
  • Printing mechanisms generally consist of a printing head fixed to a frame.
  • the thermal print head comprises a ceramic support which carries the line of heating points and integrated circuits or chips for controlling their supply.
  • the print head can pivot relative to the frame, most generally along an axis parallel to a longitudinal side of the frame.
  • a roller is integral with the frame so that its longitudinal axis is also parallel to a longitudinal side of the frame.
  • the print head is held by a spring resting on the roller. The position of the roller must therefore be perfectly controlled in order to obtain perfect alignment with the thermal print head.
  • the print medium generally consists of a roll of paper, one side of which is sensitive to heat. This printing roller is driven in rotation by means of a drive roller, also called capstan, which itself is actuated by a pinion system and by a small electric motor.
  • the compartment intended to receive the paper roll is closed by a cover made up of one or more articulated parts, the cover supporting the printing roll and allowing bring the print roller into contact with the chassis.
  • the locking of the roller on the print head is carried out by a spring secured to the frame bringing the roller into contact with the print head and between which the paper intended to be printed is inserted.
  • the pressure of the print head on the roller makes it possible to lock the system in the closed position, either by a condition on the respective positions of the axis of rotation of the cover and the direction of support of the print head, either by a condition on the shape of the spring or on the shape of the chassis.
  • known locking systems require a fairly strong pressure of the print head on the roller in order to ensure correct alignment between the print head and the roller, and in order to be unable to open too easily for example under the effect of a fall or a shock or when a pull is exerted on the paper.
  • the present invention is placed in this context and its object is to provide a thermal printing device in which the cover of the compartment intended to receive the paper roll can be operated in the direction of opening as in the direction of closing. simply and without significant effort, the opening and closing mechanism should only include a reduced number of parts so as not to negatively affect the cost of such a printing device and its reliability.
  • the subject of the present invention is a device for unlocking a compartment of an opening mechanism, in particular of a thermal printing mechanism, comprising a frame, the compartment being intended to receive a roll of paper, and being closed by a cover.
  • a lever is rotatably mounted on the cover and comprises an operating part, the lever comprising stops capable of cooperating with the sides of the frame to cause the cover to rotate relative to the frame when the lever is subjected to a rotation relative to the cover.
  • the operating part of the lever is received in an opening of the cover.
  • the opening is formed on the middle part of its main face, and housings are formed on portions extending perpendicular to the main face of the cover.
  • the housings are formed between openings intended to cooperate with pins integral with the chassis and allowing the rotation of the cover relative to the chassis and slots intended to receive the ends of the axis of a roller. for supporting and driving the paper delivered by the paper roll.
  • the lever comprises an operating part, of shape substantially complementary to that of the opening of the cover, and it is provided with extensions carrying at their free ends axes of rotation intended to engage in the housings formed. in the cover, and stops intended to cooperate with the sides of the chassis.
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of the closure cover of the compartment intended to receive the paper roll, seen from below;
  • FIG. 2 shows a perspective view of the lever fitted to the cover of Figure 1, in view of two rear thirds;
  • FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of the printing frame and the lever shown in Figure 2, the cover being omitted for the sake of clarity;
  • Figure 4 shows a perspective view of the closure cover of the compartment intended to receive the paper roll, seen from below from an angle other than that of Figure 1;
  • FIG. 5 shows a perspective view of the closure cover of the compartment intended to receive the paper roll, seen from below and equipped with the lever according to the present invention, the lever being in the closed position;
  • - Figure 6 shows a perspective view of the closure cover of the compartment intended to receive the paper roll, seen from below and equipped with the lever according to the present invention, the lever being in the open position
  • - Figure 7 represents a perspective view of the printing frame and of the lever shown in FIG. 2 from an angle other than that of FIG. 3.
  • thermal printing mechanism comprising a compartment intended to receive a roll of paper, this compartment being closed by a cover itself provided with a locking device intended to facilitate the loading and unloading of paper used in such a thermal printing device, the opening of the cover being facilitated by a lever produced in accordance with the present invention.
  • the thermal printing mechanism is quite similar to that which has been described in document FR-A-2 760 684 in the name of the applicant, the content of which is assumed to be incorporated by reference in the present description and which will therefore not be not described in more detail.
  • cover of the compartment intended to receive the paper roll the cover being designated as a whole by the reference 10.
  • the cover 10 is of generally rectangular configuration and has, at the ends of one of its sides, openings 12 intended to receive pins (not shown) integral with the chassis and allowing tilting or rotation of the cover 10 on the chassis.
  • the cover 10 has on the ends of the side opposite to that which carries the openings 12 of the slots 14 intended to receive the ends of the axis of a roller (not shown) for supporting and driving the paper delivered by the roller of paper (not shown).
  • the cover 10 is provided on the central part of its main face with an opening 16, of generally rectangular shape, and with housings 18 formed on portions 20 extending perpendicular to the main face between the openings 12 and the slots 14.
  • a lever shown in more detail in Figure 2, and designated as a whole by the reference 22, comprises a main part 24, of shape substantially complementary to that of the opening 16 of the cover 10, and forming part of maneuver.
  • the lever 22 is provided on the ends of one of its long sides with extensions 26 themselves carrying at their free ends axes of rotation 28 and stops 30.
  • the axes of rotation 28 are intended to be engaged by clipping into the housings 18 formed in the cover 10, as shown in Figures 5 and 6.
  • the lever 22 is fixed by clipping into the cover 10, the axes of rotation 28 of the lever 22 being forcibly engaged in the housings 18 of the cover 10.
  • the latter can then be installed on the chassis of the mechanism thermal printing through the openings 12 arranged around pins integral with the chassis.
  • the cover can then be closed simply by pressing on it. Indeed, the lever is free in the cover and presents no obstacle to this closing movement.
  • the stops 30 come to bear on the sides of the chassis.
  • the force exerted by the user at the end of the operating part 24 is exerted by the stops 30 on the sides of the chassis, this force being being multiplied by the ratio between the lever arms existing between on the one hand the end of the operating part 24 and the axes of rotation 28, and on the other hand between the axes of rotation 28 and the stops 30.
  • the ratio between these lever arms can be very large, and preferably more than ten.
  • the opening of the cover 10 can therefore be carried out in a particularly ergonomic manner for the user, who does not have to exert a significant effort to achieve this opening.
  • a thermal printing device has therefore been produced according to the present invention in which the cover of the compartment intended to receive the paper roll can be maneuvered in the direction of opening as in the direction of closing simply and without require significant effort, the opening and closing mechanism comprising only one piece, playing both the roles of gripping or operating member, axis of rotation of the lever relative to the cover, and lever stopper on the chassis.
  • Such a lever is therefore of a particularly reduced cost, as is that of the cover which it is intended to equip, so that the cost price and the reliability of the printing mechanism are not thereby affected.
