- the function of such a printing module will be to deliver two labels printed consecutively from one and the other of the two print media through a single distribution slot, preferably with the possibility of also issuing pre-printed labels.
- the object of the present invention is to propose another simpler solution with regard to the advance and guiding of the print media, based on the use of two print heads, preferably with the possibility of making each one of them inoperative for a simple function of distribution of preprinted media. It offers a printing module for at least two printing supports, characterized in that it comprises:
- a frame substantially in the form of a prism, of which two adjacent faces each define a guide path for one of the printing supports, the advance of the printing supports being in the direction of the end common to the two faces;
- each print head can be raised to the out-of-service position, for a simple dispensing function.
- the means for driving the print media can be housed inside the frame, each print head being able to be arranged on a removable head support disposed opposite the exterior of the frame and comprising means for fixing to the latter.
- the printing module can be loaded on at least one of its paths with adaptable printing supports, each printing support consisting for this purpose in a succession of zones differentiated, for example by their color, each zone being able to be printed and / or cut out, so that the final support can consist of a single zone, less than all of these zones, or all of these areas.
- the printing module exposed above was more particularly designed within the framework of a more general study relating to automatic distributors of printing supports printed therein or preprinted, and the present invention therefore also relates to these distributors. .
- the dispenser is a block consisting of a rectangular chest having a front door opening laterally, which door comprises a touch keyboard, a screen, means for payment in cash and by card, and a distribution bowl, at least two modules being placed side by side and pointing down in the trunk so as to be directly accessible from the outside after opening the door, and to communicate at the outlet with said bowl in the door.
- the dispenser can be provided with a balance embedded in its upper wall, for the supply of franking labels.
- FIG. 3 is a view similar to FIG. 2, but showing the module on the other side with respect to FIG. 2, and in which the cutter is in the closed operating position;

- drive 26A, 26B associated so that the roller also forms an anvil at the time of printing by the print head.
- this is removable and can be fixed laterally on the triangular walls 9 of the frame 8 using two lateral locking hooks 35a, 35b cooperating with notches in the frame 8 made for this purpose (not visible in the figures).
- a spring 36a, 3 ⁇ b permanently urges the corresponding hook 35a, 35b in the hooking position, the hooks being extended by operating arms 37a, 37b which can be secured to one another.
- the thermal printing head 30A is fixed on its support using two fixing screws 38a, 38b engaged in holes 39a, 39b of the head support 31A and in threads of said head.
- the connection to the control unit of the dispenser is made using a flexible connection tape 40A and a connector 41A disposed on the face 10A of the frame 8 (see Figs. 2 and 3).
- the head support 31A, 31B is moreover equipped with a free drive roller 42 and a mechanism making it possible to put the roller in an operating position in which it comes into contact with the printing medium, under pressure against the roller 26A, 26B, making the head inactive; or in a reverse raised position in which the head is active.
- the mechanism for switching from a "presser” mode to a "printing” mode comprises two small springs adapted to hold the roller in either position. It is thus easy to switch to "presser” mode without having to dismantle the print head for example to deliver a pre-printed label.
- the cutter 15, shown in Figs. 5A and 5B, comprises a movable front wall 50 provided with a blade 51; and a housing 52 provided with a fixed counter blade 53 and containing a motorized mechanism adapted to move the wall 50 in translation to cut the printing medium 3A or 3B.
- This mechanism comprises a stepping motor 55 receiving operating instructions from the distributor control unit, and successively meshing toothed pinions 56 which cooperate with a rack 58 integral with the movable front wall 50.
- Detection means 57 are also provided in the housing 52 for detecting the presence of print medium and triggering the cutting operation via the central control unit.
- the translational movement of the wall 50 is guided by two hinge elements 59a, 59b each having a bore which cooperates with a lateral axis 60 - belonging to the housing 52.
- This axis 60 is of circular section, also serving as the axis of articulation of the wall 50 relative to the housing 52, and thus allowing access to the motorized mechanism.
- At the end opposite the hinge pin 60 are means for closing, for example by snap-fastening, the wall 50 on the housing 52.
- the cutter 15 is mounted on the module 8 using a hinge 62 (see Fig. 5B), also fixed laterally on the housing 52 on the side of the hinge pin 60.
- a locking arm 64 cooperating with a suitable member disposed laterally on the triangular base of the frame 8, allows the cutter 15 to be locked in the closed operating position.
- the open position shown in FIG. 2 facilitates access to the elements of the printing module, in particular for switching from “printing” mode to “presser” mode of the printing medium 31A, 31B.
- the device operates as follows.
- the central control unit sends an instruction for example to the stepping motor 20A to advance the printing medium 3A via the drive means 22A-26A.
- the latter will advance until it is opposite the print head 30A.
- the latter then receives a printing instruction.
- the drive means 22A-26A then advance the printed support 6 into the distribution slot 5 and an instruction is given to the cutter motor 15 to lift the blade 51.
- the central unit will firstly command the recoil of the print medium 3A to the level of the print head 31A and then command the same procedure as above for the medium 3B.
- an optical sensor of the transmissive type is advantageously provided on board at least one of the guide bars 16A, 16b, to control the presence of print media and read the displacements by cooperating with a lateral streaking appropriate of it showing variations in the light transmission factor.
- Figs. 7A and 7B represent a distributor according to the invention, more specifically a distribution and printing device whose vocation is to automatically offer customers a plurality of different services in a limited volume.
- This device is in the form of a compact block 100, the dimensions of which can for example be of the order of 60 cm for its width and depth, and 70 cm for its height.
- it is a distribution and printing block more particularly intended for equipping a post office, and being able to supply, for example, selected from a wide range of possibilities, franking labels, plates stamps, tickets for shows, receipts for credit card payments.
- the block 100 consists of a rectangular chest, with a front door 101 hinged laterally, and a scale 102 embedded in the upper wall.
- the block 100 comprises two modules of the type described above and therefore designated by the same reference 1 as in the preceding figures, which modules 1 are arranged side by side, point downward, and both communicate at the outlet with the single bowl 108 .
- the modules 1 are arranged so as to be directly accessible from the outside after opening the door 100, FIG. 7B, and for this purpose, they are advantageously pivotally mounted in their lower part, so that they can be tilted outward to allow full accessibility to each of their two paper paths after lifting the print head support. corresponding.
- the block 100 can therefore be loaded with four different supports, which are in the form of a paper roll or a paper / silicone complex.
- the block 100 can print blank or partially pre-printed supports, after which they are cut and transferred to the bowl 108.
- the block 100 can also, for pre-printed supports such as stamp sheets, provide a simple dispenser function, the print head support 31A, 31B of the corresponding paper path then being tilted to activate the pressure roller 42 instead of the print head 30A, 30B, this operation can be performed manually when loading the media roll preprinted.
- An adaptable printing support design further increases the multiplicity of services offered to the customers' choice by a distribution and printing unit according to the invention.
- Each printing medium can thus comprise a succession of zones or bands possibly differentiated by their color, for example a central white zone between lower and upper blue and red bands.
- Each zone or band can be printed and cut, the final supports to be delivered to the customer can consist of a single band, or else the middle band plus one of the lower or upper bands, or else all of the three bands.
- the tapes to be eliminated may be marked to indicate their cancellation.
- Such an adaptable support is for example provided as a label for postal parcels, to receive in its central area a code for automatic reading such as a bar code, while an adjacent color strip is intended for manual processing.
- the distribution and printing unit according to the invention can distribute several supports in a single operation, for example a sheet of stamps and / or a franking label with a payment receipt by bank card.
