Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an arrangement for effective handling of sheet material, such as banknotes or transferred sheet printed messages, wherein the arrangement includes sheet bundling means, a store of bundle enveloping or packaging material, means for enveloping a bundle of sheet material with enveloping material taken from said store, said store including two mutually coacting rolls of enveloping material, and further includes processor for co-ordinating and controlling the mutual co-action of the various units in the arrangement in accordance with a predetermined pattern.
  • the store of enveloping material in an arrangement of the aforesaid kind is provided with pulse generating elements and pulse reading elements are disposed on a fixed body of the arrangement in close connection with said pulse generating elements on the store, said pulse reading elements functioning to read pulses that are generated in response to roll movement and to transfer these pulses to the arrangement processor.
  • Fig. 1 The known arrangement shown in Fig. 1 includes a telefax-type receiver 10 which includes signal receiving means and a printer 43 for printing of received messages on sheets taken from a sheet store 41, and a closed casing 11 which as the sheets are printed, functions to bundle together printed sheets that have passed through the printer 43. Also included is a store (rolls) 25, 27 of enveloping material 26 and 28 in which the collected bundles of sheets are enveloped, or enclosed. The bundles are enclosed with the aid of first joining elements 30 which function to produce vertical joins (parallel with the plane of the paper); second joining elements 32-34 which function to produce horizontal joins (perpendicular to the plane of the paper); and transport rollers 35 for transporting the enclosed bundle of sheets to a lockable box 14.
  • first joining elements 30 which function to produce vertical joins (parallel with the plane of the paper)
  • second joining elements 32-34 which function to produce horizontal joins (perpendicular to the plane of the paper)
  • transport rollers 35 for transporting the enclosed bundle of sheets to
  • Fig.2 illustrates a sub-store 25 containing enveloping or enclosing material (plastic) 26.
  • the material is rolled-up on a cylindrical bobbin 251 which has an end wall 252, 253 fitted on respective ends thereof.
  • Each of the end walls has pulse generating means, namely an outer clock pulse generating element 2521, 2531 close to the periphery of respective end walls, and an inner information generating means 2522, 2532 closer to the centre of respective end walls.
  • a pulse reading element 29 which functions to read pulses (clock pulses, information pulses) delivered in response to rotational movement of the sub-store 25, and to send these pulses to a processor that is adapted particularly for co-ordinating and controlling the mutual co-action of the various units in the arrangement.
  • the pulse reading element 29 is comprised of an outer clock pulse detecting sub-element 291 and an inner information reading sub-element 292.
  • Each sub-element includes a "fork" which embraces a pulse generating element on the end wall when a supply of enveloping material is placed correctly in the arrangement; in other words, respective sub-elements will constantly read-off the associated pulse generating element as the sub-store 25 rotates.
  • Fig.3 illustrates the sub-store end wall 252 with said outer pulse generating element 2521, the inner information generating element 2522, and the pulse reading element 29 with its two fork-like sub-elements 291 for the element 2521 and the sub-element 292 for the element 2522.
  • the element 2521 has eight (8) teeth and eight (8) interspaces over a peripheral area of 90 degrees, whereas the element 2522 has, in the illustrated case, only one tooth and one interspace on the same length of arc.
  • Located between two side walls are two guide struts 36, 37 which function partly to guide a roll when positioning the roll in place in the arrangement, and partly to provide a safe support for the roll during operation of the arrangement.
  • These guide struts ensure that the pulse generating elements 2521, 2522 obtain a correct free position in relation to the pulse reading sub-elements 291,292.
  • These elements include, in a known manner, light emitting elements and light sensitive elements on each side of the arcuate elements 2521, 2522.
  • Pulses outputted from the outer pulse generating element inform that the roll rotates.
  • a comparison between the pulses from outer and the inner pulse generating elements indicates the direction in which the roll rotates, and pulses outputted by inner pulse generating element give, for example, information relating to the type of enveloping material in the store, the quality of said material, its thickness, etc..
  • the arrangement of pulse generating elements on the rolls provides further possibilities of steering/controlling the arrangement.
  • this control facility is achieved by first winding the material through a number of turns in one direction and then winding the remainder of the material on the roll or bobbin in the reverse direction.
  • the rolls When unwinding of the material has reached the point at which the winding-on direction was reversed, the rolls will stand still during continued unwinding of the material by virtue of the material sliding off from the underlying turn, wherewith the rolls will rotate in another direction until there is no material left.
  • the sequence comprising rotation in one direction - stationary rolls - rotation in the reverse direction is sensed by he element 29, which thereby causes pre-determined signals to be sent to the processor and also certain process/signals in the arrangement via the processor.
  • the co-ordinating and controlling processor described above is indicated at 15 in Fig. 1.
  • the invention is not limited to the described exemplifying embodiment entailing the transfer of sheet-printed messages.
  • the invention can also be applied in connection with the handling of banknotes where bundles of banknotes are enveloped, encased or likewise packaged. Each bundle may contain 100 banknotes or the bundles may alternatively contain mutually different pre-determined numbers of banknotes.
  • a given number of banknotes are dispensed singly from a store of banknotes and gathered into a bundle, which is then encased in enveloping material taken from the store of enveloping material (plastic) by means provided downstream to this end, all in accordance with what has been described above.
