Abstract

A self-inking stamp with overhead inking, with a lower component (1) for positioning on a surface to be stamped, with a swivel mechanism (W) for a print platen support arranged in the lower component for reciprocal swiveling movement between a stamp pad (4) and a support frame (A) and with an actuator upper component (2) movable against the bias of a spring relative to the lower component, the actuator upper portion being connected by its lateral parts (2'') to the lower component by a swivel axle of the print platen support extending through elongated openings (12) in narrow side walls of the lower component, whereby the actuator upper component is connected to the lower component by lateral elastic snap connections (7, 8) and is provided at its lower end with lateral snap recesses (9) which may be engaged by swivel axle stubs of the print platen support inserted into the guide slots of the lower component.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Selbstfärbestempel mit Oberschlagfärbung, mit einem auf die zu stempelnde Fläche aufsetzbaren Unterteil, mit einem Wendemechanismus für einen im Unterteil angeordneten, zwischen einem Farbkissen und einem Aufsetzrahmen unter gleichzeitiger Wendung hin- und herbewegbaren Druckplattenträger, und mit einem gegen Federkraft relativ zum Unterteil verschiebbaren Betätigungs-Oberteil, der mit seinen Seitenteilen durch eine die Schmalseitenwände des Unterteiles in Langlöchern durchsetzende Wendeachse des Druckplattenträgers mit dem Unterteil verbunden ist.The invention relates to a self-inking stamp with Oberschlagfärbung, with a placed on the surface to be stamped base, with a turning mechanism for a arranged in the lower part, between a color pad and a Aufsetzrahmen with simultaneous turn reciprocating pressure plate carrier, and with a relative to spring force relative to the lower part displaceable actuating upper part, which is connected with its side parts by a narrow side walls of the lower part in oblong holes passing through the turning axis of the pressure plate carrier with the lower part.

Derartige Selbstfärbestempel sind bekannt, z.B. aus dem EP 0 459 969 A1 . Bei diesen Stempeln ist der Betätigungs-Oberteil im wesentlichen haubenartig ausgebildet und weist sowohl vorne als auch hinten eine Ausnehmung auf, welche den Zutritt zum Stempelkissen gestattet, das in einen horizontalen Schacht des Stempelunterteiles austauschbar eingeschoben wird.Such self-inking are known, for example from the EP 0 459 969 A1 , In these punches the actuating upper part is formed substantially hood-like and has both front and rear a recess which allows access to the ink pad, which is inserted interchangeably into a horizontal shaft of the punch base.

Die Erfindung zielt darauf ab, durch eine neuartige Gestaltung des Stempels den Zusammenbau und den Transport desselben zu vereinfachen, damit der Endverbraucher die Montage der von ihm selbst gefertigten Stempelplatte auf einfache Weise bewerkstelligen kann und der Stempel dann sofort gebrauchsfertig ist. Dies wird bei einem Stempel der einleitend angegebenen Art erfindungsgemäß dadurch erreicht, daß der Betätigungs-Oberteil mit dem Unterteil über seitliche elastische Rastverbindungen verbunden ist und an seinem unteren Ende seitliche Rastaufnahmen aufweist, welche mit Wendeachsstummeln des in Führungsschlitze des Unterteiles eingreifenden Druckplattenträgers in Eingriff versetzbar sind.The invention aims to simplify the assembly and the transport of the same by a novel design of the stamp, so that the end user can easily accomplish the assembly of the self-made stamp plate and the stamp is then ready to use. This is inventively achieved in a stamp of the type specified by the fact that the upper part is connected to the lower part via lateral elastic latching connections and at its lower end lateral locking receptacles which are engageable with Wendeachsstummeln of engaging in guide slots of the lower part pressure plate carrier in engagement.

Vorzugsweise weist die Rastverbindung von Oberteil und Unterteil Rastnasen in den Seitenteilen des Oberteiles auf, die Hinterschneidungen in den Seitenteilen des Unterteiles hintergreifen.Preferably, the latching connection of upper part and lower part locking lugs in the side parts of the upper part, which engage behind undercuts in the side parts of the lower part.

Nach einem weiteren Erfindungsmerkmal sind in den Seitenteilen des Oberteiles im Anschluß an die Rastnasen Rastaufnahmen für die Achsstummel des Druckplattenträgers ausgebildet.According to a further feature of the invention are formed in the side parts of the upper part following the locking lugs detent receptacles for the stub axle of the pressure plate carrier.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend an einem Ausführungsbeispiel näher erläutert. Es zeigen Fig. 1 einen erfindungsgemäßen Stempel zur Hälfte im Axialschnitt und zur Hälfte in Ansicht, Fig. 2 ein Detail aus Fig. 1 und Fig. 3 einen Schnitt nach der Linie 3-3 in Fig. 1.The invention will be explained in more detail using an exemplary embodiment. 1 shows a stamp according to the invention in half in axial section and half in elevation, FIG. 2 shows a detail from FIG. 1 and FIG. 3 shows a section along line 3-3 in FIG. 1.

Der in Fig. 1 wiedergegebene Selbstfärbestempel weist einen Stempelunterteil 1 auf, der einen Aufsetzrahmen A und einen Wendemechanismus W enthält und mit einem relativ zum Unterteil 1 bewegbaren Betätigungs-Oberteil 2 durch eine federnde bzw. elastische Rastverbindung verbunden ist, die im Detail in Fig. 2 gezeigt ist.The reproduced in Fig. 1 self-inking stamp has a stamp base 1, which contains a Aufsetzrahmen A and a turning mechanism W and is connected to a movable relative to the lower part 1 actuating upper part 2 by a resilient or elastic latching connection, which in detail in FIG. 2 is shown.

Der Stempelunterteil 1 nimmt ein Farbkissen 4 auf, welches in einen Schacht des Unterteiles eingeschoben ist.The stamp base 1 receives a color pad 4, which is inserted into a shaft of the lower part.

Der Oberteil 2 trägt in seiner oberen Kappe 2' ein aufklappbares Textfenster 5 und in seinem Inneren eine Kegel-Druckfeder 6 für die Stempelbetätigung.The upper part 2 carries in its upper cap 2 'a hinged text window 5 and in its interior a cone compression spring 6 for the punch operation.

In den elastisch verformbaren Seitenteilen 2" des Oberteiles 2 sind nahe dem unteren Ende desselben Rastnasen 7 ausgebildet, die mit Hinterschneidungen 8 des Unterteiles 1 in Eingriff versetzbar sind, wenn der Oberteil 2 auf den Unterteil 1 über eine Schräge 8' entgegen der Kraft der Feder 6 aufgedrückt wird. Den Rastnasen 7 benachbart weist der Oberteil 2 in seinen Seitenteilen 2" Rastausnehmungen 9 für den Schnappeingriff von Achsstummeln 10 eines Stempelplattenträgers 11 auf, der in Führungsnuten 12 des Unterteiles 1 eingesetzt wird. Durch Aufdrücken des Oberteiles 2 auf den Druckplattenträger 11 über eine Schräge 9' wird die Rastverbindung hergestellt, wie dies Fig. 3 illustriert.In the elastically deformable side parts 2 "of the upper part 2 are formed near the lower end thereof locking lugs 7, which are engageable with undercuts 8 of the lower part 1 in engagement, when the upper part 2 is pressed onto the lower part 1 via a slope 8 'against the force of the spring 6. Adjacent to the latching lugs 7, the upper part 2 has in its side parts 2 "latching recesses 9 for the snap engagement of axle stubs 10 of a punch plate carrier 11 which is inserted in guide grooves 12 of the lower part 1. By pressing the upper part 2 onto the pressure plate carrier 11 via a bevel 9 ' the locking connection is made, as Fig. 3 illustrates.
