Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tachograph with a parallelepiped housing and with a printing device which a thermal print head and a frontrankbaren from the housing of the tachograph carrier for reloading the print material supply forming tape roll and at least during printing with the thermal print head with the interposition of the printing material frictionally in operative connection standing, driven by a drive transport roller, wherein the thermal print head in the housing of the tachograph and the transport roller and the drive are arranged in the carrier.
  • Tachographs which are not equipped for the use of chart discs as a record carrier, but for storing the calculated travel and working time data appropriately trained mass storage, make the documentation in the form of a visually readable document suitable printing devices required to be located within the tachograph because in a cab of a commercial vehicle clearance for the installation of a self-contained, corresponding to the tachograph printer is generally not given.
  • the object which solves the invention, is thus to provide a conditions of the above conditions, stable arrangement of a thermal print head within the housing of a tachograph, which takes up little space and can be realized with the simplest possible and easily assembled components.
  • the invention provides that for the storage of the pivotable against the action of at least one spring thermal print head, a bearing bridge is provided and that the bearing bridge is attached to a cover plate of the housing of the tachograph.
  • a preferred embodiment is characterized in that for attaching the bearing bridge on the cover plate, a holder attached to the cover plate is provided.
  • the preferred embodiment is characterized in particular by the fact that the holder is plate-shaped, that provided on the legs of the bearing bridge with through holes lobes are formed and that on the holder associated with the cloth and prepared for screw pods are formed.
  • the solution according to the invention offers the advantage that the thermal print head can be arranged exclusively on the cover plate of the housing and thus, since no longitudinal or transverse cables are required for the attachment of the thermal print head inside the housing, an optimal use of the given installation space exists.
  • the invention enables a secure and stable attachment of the thermal print head in particular also in view of the fact that the storage or attachment of the thermal print head not only has to support the contact force on the transport roller but must also take transversely directed to the direction of action of the bearing force force components during movement of the carrier.
  • a further advantage is that when assembling the holder of the bearing bridge serves as a socket, in such a way that when mounting the bearing bridge it is clamped to the cover part of the housing and is locked in the direction of movement of the wearer. It should also be emphasized that the invention causes due to the largest possible attachment of the holder to the cover part of the housing appropriate for the attachment of the thermal print head stiffening and that the thermal print head is easily replaceable.
  • a designed as a built-in tachograph 1, as shown in Figure 1 reveals a cuboid housing 2, which is associated with a front wall 3.
  • the space-saving, preferably made of sheet material housing 2 may consist of a connectable to a bottom part 4 cover part 5 according to Figure 5, on which side walls 6 and 7, a rear wall 8 and a cover plate 9 are formed.
  • the tachograph 1, on the front side substantially a display is observable and various actuators and wells for the driver associated data cards are accessible, has a printer assembly with a drawer-like example, slide 10, which is front closed with a plate 11, the design, especially flush, in the Front surface of the front wall 3 of the tachograph 1 inserts.
  • the carrier 10, for example, associated with a bistable detent gear, which in the case of printing material is to be refilled, by pressing the plate 11, which thus serves as a key, unlocked and locked.
  • a receptacle 12 is formed in the carrier 10 which serves as a loose holder for a tape roll 13 forming the print material supply. 14, the winding core of the tape roll 13 is designated. Between the receptacle 12 and the plate 11 of the carrier 10 there is a space 15 in which a transport roller 16 and a driving this drive 17 are mounted. At 18, the motor of the drive 17 is designated.
  • the shaft 24 of the transport roller 16 is pivotally mounted within a certain angle about the axis 25 of the drive 17, so that when pushing the carrier 10 is independent of the guide game of the carrier 10 alignment with the thermal print head 19 is possible. It is equally expedient to round the front side, the transport roller 16 facing edge of the heat sink 23 in a suitable manner.
  • a holder 26 designed as a sheet metal part according to FIG. 3 is provided.
  • a recess 27 holder 26 are provided with threaded holes 28, 29, 30 and 31 pedestals 32, 33, 34 and 35 formed and at least one projecting into the recess tongue 36 is formed.
  • a band winding 13 associated stop bar is designated.
  • the connection of the holder 26 with the cover plate 9 takes place by means of the sheet metal connection technique mentioned in the introduction to the description. Of the resulting elevations two are visible in Figure 5 and designated 38 and 39, a third elevation 40 is shown in Figure 6.
  • a bearing bracket 41 shown in FIG. 4 is designed such that it can be inserted into the cutout 27 of the holder 26 with, for example, a small clearance.
  • the tongue 36 of the holder 26 engages in a recess 42 of the bearing bridge 41 and thus serves the alignment before screwing the two components.
  • 43, 44, 45 and 46 41 molded, provided with through holes 47, 48 and 49 tabs are on the bearing bridge, by means of which the attachment of the bearing bridge 41 on the holder 26 takes place.
  • the front side, the guide rails 64, 65 are provided with unspecified wedge surfaces, the sliding of the shaft 24 on the guide rails 64, 65, the simultaneous pivoting of the under Effect of Druckfedem 59, 60, 61 stationary thermal printhead 19 takes place, facilitate.
  • the shaft 24 associated bushings are not shown.
  • a designated opening 66 in the leg 50 serves the thermal print head 19 which engages with an integrally formed finger in the opening 66 as a limit stop in the event that the carrier 10 is pulled out of the tachograph 1.
  • FIG. 70 shows a ribbon cable associated with the thermal print head 19. Of the screws used to attach the bearing bridge 41 to the holder 26, three are visible in FIG. 5 and labeled 71, 72 and 73.
  • the section, Figure 6 illustrates again the immediate and thus space-saving assignment of the bearing bracket 41 to the cover plate 9 of the cover part 5 and the nesting of the releasable bearing bridge 41 with the non-detachable holder 26.
  • the holder 26 should be as large as possible with the cover plate 9 in connection because of the stabilizing function.
