Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an automatic device for turning the pages of a bound document according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a device is for example described in the US patent US 4,942,482 .
  • This device comprises two transparent trays on which the document is placed so that the pages of the document are facing downwards. Between the two trays is a slit below which there are two adjacent cylinders, one of which has suction holes.
  • the document is held by a movable template so that it can be moved relative to the trays. To turn a page, the document is pushed using the template in the direction of the slot. A page of this document is sucked by the cylinders provided with suction holes. This page rotates between the two cylinders and penetrates into a housing under the cylinders.
  • the page is removed from the slot and is placed on the side of the already turned sheets.
  • This device has a number of disadvantages. Since the sheets move around the suction cylinder, the device can not be used for certain types of paper. In particular, it is not possible to turn hardcopies. In addition, a document must necessarily be opened before starting to turn pages. In addition, if it contains a hard cover page, the machine crashes. Because of the position of the document facing downwards and the curvature to which the pages are subjected, these pages can be damaged or destroyed, and this is particularly due to the fact that the pages presented are pressed by the weight of the document against the holding device. . This device is therefore not suitable for old and / or precious documents. In addition, since the template has to be adapted to the dimensions of the document, the device is impractical for processing documents having different formats. The document is turned down, it is necessary to integrate into the frame, a device that can make photocopies or scanning. This means that it is necessary to choose a particular type of device and then it is almost impossible to change without designing a completely new machine.
  • Another device, intended particularly for the disabled, is also known by the French patent FR 2 713 149 .
  • This device comprises two trays, mounted independently of one another by means. elastic, on which is placed the document. Each tray can apply the pages of a document against at least one finger. These fingers are retractable.
  • the page turning member is a roller provided with a pressing device and includes lateral translation means for moving from one edge to the other of the document.
  • the main disadvantage of this embodiment is related to the fact that, as the document holding plates are independent but connected by elastic means, it is very difficult to manage the force applied to the document between the trays and the retractable fingers.
  • the publication EP 0 452 911 relates to a paper feed device for separating sheets of paper from a stack and feeding separate sheets of a machine such as a photocopier.
  • This feeder comprises a diaphragm formed of two concentric cylinders which rotate, one of the cylinders frictionally and sucking the sheet in contact and the second cylinder acting by suction to pull and hold the sheet against the cylinder.
  • the device subject of the US patent US 4,691,909 comprises two movable trays which are inclined towards one another and on which the document is placed.
  • the page is kept open by a device of chopsticks that press on the visible pages.
  • a rotatable roll is brought into forced contact against the document. It turns in one direction and can take several leaves. He brings these leaves against a pinch member and then turns in a reverse direction to eliminate the extra pages. In a swinging motion the roll and pinch member send the page turned on the other side. This page falls by its own weight and is taken over by the chopstick device.
  • the page turning member rotates and drives the pages by friction on their surface, which can damage the sensitive pages, or even erase the content at the friction point.
  • the page separation method implies that the driven page is flexible so that it can bulge when pushed from its end to its binding point.
  • the efficiency of page separation by friction and relative movement is highly dependent on the type of paper and the surface condition of the paper. This type of page separation presents difficulties in ensuring that only one page is tour at once.
  • the fingers or sticks for holding the pages have points of support concentrated on a small surface that can mark or damage the document. These objects are also troublesome for the visibility of the pages.
  • the patent US 5,471,277 relates to a reading device of a document provided with a turntable arranged to be installed in a photocopier, a fax machine or the like, comprising a document support table and a page-turner made in the form of a belt. a dielectric material associated with an electric field generator for electrostatically attracting the page.
  • the insertion of a transparent plate movable horizontally in the space thus created turns the raised page.
  • the present invention proposes to overcome the drawbacks of the known devices of the prior art, by producing a device that makes it possible to turn the pages, from left to right or from right to left, of any type of document and any form of bound book, regardless of the rigidity, porosity and fragility of the pages, and which can be easily adapted to the chosen application.
  • this device automatically detects single-page gripping, page gripping, multiple page gripping, end of document, flexible or rigid pages and adapts to their specific treatment without requiring human intervention.
  • the perforated hollow element is provided with closure means arranged to limit longitudinally the suction surface
  • the rod connecting the two plates pivots about a horizontal axis, this horizontal axis being vertically movable, which synchronizes the movement of the moving plates, and a compression member is arranged to compensate for the weight of the elements. supported by said horizontal axis.
  • the trays advantageously comprise locking means of their relative position and each plate is integral with a horizontal biasing element arranged to allow the centering of the document.
  • each tray is formed by a box having a planar upper face provided with holes and at least one suction inlet.
  • This upper face of the boxes can be provided with a mask adapted to the size of the document whose pages must be rotated.
  • the means for turning a page of the document may comprise two transparent plates arranged in parallel planes, movable relative to one another, and relative to the trays.
  • the device further comprises control means arranged to measure the dimensions of the document and the number of pages taken as well as means for measuring the suction pressure in the perforated hollow element.
  • the or each transparent plate comprises, on an edge substantially parallel to the binding of the document a conduit arranged to expel air towards the pages of said document and at least one movable conduit perpendicular to said binding of the document, also arranged to expel air towards the pages of said document.
  • the perforated hollow element may be equipped with a removable filter element to protect the turned pages against contamination.
  • the device When the device is intended to take an image of the turned pages of the document, it comprises means for recording these images.
  • the device 100 comprises a frame 10 in which are arranged a support 11 for the document whose pages must be turned, means 12 for holding the pages to turn and turn the separate page, control means 13 of the pages rotated or rotated, means 14 for separating the pages to be rotated and means 15 for recording images.
  • the support 11 for the document comprises two plates 16 interconnected by means of a rod 17.
  • each plate 16 is mounted on a horizontal rail 18 which allows it to slide along a longitudinal axis relative to the device.
  • These horizontal rails are themselves secured to a carriage (not shown) sliding in a vertical rail 20, which provides a linear guide plates.
  • the rod 17 is articulated around its center. This center is materialized by an axis 21 can be moved in a vertical guide 22 by means of a motor. In this way, the trays can be moved in two opposite directions or in the same direction. In other words, when one of the trays is raised, the other can be lowered either around the center of the rod 17, or also raised along the vertical rail 20.
  • Each horizontal rail 18 is also integral with a vertical bar 24 passing close to the link rod 17.
  • This rod is provided with locking means 25 arranged near each of the vertical bars so that when these means are actuated, they hold the bars and prevent them from moving.
  • a compression member 9 connected to the vertical guide 22 compensates for the weight of the elements supported by the horizontal axis 21. In this way, the trays 16 remain in their relative position regardless of the force applied to them.
  • Each tray is formed by a box 26 whose substantially flat upper face is provided with a multitude of small holes 27 and which comprises one or more suction inlets 28.
  • This box may further be provided with a perforated mask 29 which the perforations coincide with the holes 27 so that these holes are plugged, either by the cover of the document whose pages must be turned, or by the mask. This allows a good maintenance of said document and avoids losses due to suction through unobstructed holes.
  • the centering of the document on the trays is provided by horizontal return elements 19 integral with the trays 16.
  • the means 12 for holding pages to turn and turn the separate page comprise at least one transparent plate or in the example shown two transparent plates 30, for example glass, placed above the document. These plates can slide in a plane parallel to the pages of the document and in a direction perpendicular to the binding of this document. For this purpose, they are integral with guide elements in translation known per se and not shown.
  • the edge of the transparent plate which is in contact with the page of the document to be rotated comprises a duct 33 connected to a blower so that air is blown towards the pages so as to push the sheet to rotate by air cushion .
  • a blower so that air is blown towards the pages so as to push the sheet to rotate by air cushion .
  • the conduit 33 may be placed on only one or both of the plates and the blower may be operated in one or both conduits, depending on the direction in which the pages are rotated.
  • the means 14 for separating the pages of the document consist of suction means 34 and displacement means 35 of these suction means. In the illustrated embodiment, they make it possible to turn the pages from left to right or from right to left. However, it is possible to make a small machine if it should turn the pages in one direction.
  • the suction means 34 are formed of a perforated hollow element, which may be in the form of a tube 36 provided with a diaphragm 37.
  • the tube 36 comprises a plurality of holes 38 having a peripheral area flared in the form of a suction cup. According to a preferred embodiment, the holes are arranged staggered on the lower surface of the tube so as to ensure optimal grip of the sheets to rotate.
  • the diaphragm 37 is formed of two parts 39, 40 movable relative to each other, which can be made in the form of tubes sliding in the tube 36, each of these tubes being provided with a closed zone and an open area such as a slot extending over an angular area of less than 180 °, so that the rotation of one of the tubes relative to the other makes it possible to close the diaphragm completely or to open it.
  • the tubes 39, 40 forming the diaphragm are supported by bearings.
  • These suction means 34 also comprise closure means for longitudinally limiting the suction surface.
  • these closure means are formed of two movable sleeves 44 arranged at each end of the tube 36 so that the holes 38 of said tube 36 can be plugged either by a document page or by the diaphragm, either by one or other of the sleeves. As in the case of the mask 29 on the box, these sleeves ensure optimal suction.
  • the perforated tube 36 may be equipped with a removable filter element.
  • the displacement means 35 of these suction means comprise two rails, a vertical rail 46 and a horizontal rail 47, as well as drive motors.
  • the tube 36 is moved in a relative movement with respect to the page obtained by the combination of a vertical movement and a horizontal movement.
  • the control means 13 essentially make it possible to ensure that only one page of the document is rotated at a time.
  • These control means comprise a first rangefinder 48a which measures the number of pages entered by the page separation means and a second rangefinder 48b for determining the exact position and size of the document.
  • the device also comprises means 50 for measuring the pressure in the suction means 34. Indeed, when a page is sucked, the pressure varies according to a given curve. If a page could not be taken correctly, the pressure will remain constant and the curve will not match the conventional curve, which can be detected.
  • These pressure measuring means 50 also make it possible to distinguish a standard page from the document of a different page, such as, for example, a flexible page of a rigid page. Indeed, a flexible sheet bends slightly around the tube of the suction means and closes a number of holes 38, which generates a determined pressure curve. When two standard sheets are taken at the same time, the pressure curve is almost identical to the curve for a sheet. On the other hand, the number of pages measured by the rangefinder 48a differs. When a rigid sheet is grasped, it bends less than a standard sheet and closes fewer holes 38 of the suction means 34. The pressure curve will be different from the conventional curve. Thus, it will be possible to ignore the measurement made by the rangefinder 48a.
  • the image recording means 15 may be adapted to the chosen application. Indeed, the pages can be photographed or scanned and digitized. According to a concrete embodiment, these recording means may comprise a digital camera 51 fixed or mobile mounted so as to move above the document on a set of rails integral with the frame. This camera takes an image of each double page, scans it and transmits it to a storage and / or processing system such as a computer (not shown).
  • a digital camera 51 fixed or mobile mounted so as to move above the document on a set of rails integral with the frame. This camera takes an image of each double page, scans it and transmits it to a storage and / or processing system such as a computer (not shown).
  • the device 100 of the invention may also include a mechanism 53 for separating the pages 54 in the form of a conduit perpendicular to the binding of the document. Air is blown from this duct in a direction parallel to the binding, which has the effect of slightly separating the pages by introducing between them, a small air cushion. This greatly reduces the friction between the pages and increases the reliability of the device by preventing multiple pages being taken simultaneously.
  • the rangefinder 48b moves to determine the exact position and size of the document.
  • the cover page is opened. If one starts with an open document, the document is positioned on the two trays, the rangefinder 48a is moved longitudinally along the machine and measures at each point, the distance between the rangefinder and the document. This makes it possible to determine the position of the edges of a page as well as the position of the middle of the document
  • connection between the trays 16 is such that regardless of the number of pages on each of the trays, the upper page of each part of the document is substantially located in the same plane. Indeed, the side of the document having the most pages, so the thicker, the tray will be pressed down. Thus, the two visible pages of the document will be substantially in the same plane.
  • the trays are locked in position by means of the locking means 25 so that the pages of the document remain in the same plane when the document is moved away from the plates 30.
  • the trays 16 are mounted simultaneously until they press the document, with a determined pressure, against the right transparent plate 30 of the device.
  • the visible double page can then be processed, that is to say, photographed or scanned.
  • the trays 16 are lowered simultaneously by a distance such that the document can not be closed by itself and that the pages which tend to turn are held by one of them.
  • the plates are then moved to the left so that the left plate retains the pages of the document that tend to close and that the right plate has its free edge more right than the document.
  • a space is created between the two plates. This space is wide enough to allow passage to the suction means 34.
  • this diaphragm 37 in the tube 36 of the suction means adjusts the suction force. Indeed, if the slot of the diaphragm is such that it is opposite a small number of holes of the outer tube, the suction force will be distributed over a very small number of holes and will be very large. This is used when turning very stiff or heavy pages such as hard cover pages or hard interleaved pages. Conversely, when the open area of the diaphragm is in contact with a large number of holes, the force per hole is relatively small. This mode of use is suitable for the inner pages of a document that are generally flexible.
  • the setting of the suction force can be done manually, depending on the paper quality of the document from which the pages are to be rotated. It can also be done automatically. In this case the pivoting of the diaphragm is managed by motors which automatically adjust the opening angle according to the paper.
  • the suction means 34 are then moved according to a movement whose trajectory is obtained by the combination of a vertical movement and a horizontal movement.
  • the two tubes 39, 40 forming the diaphragm 37 are also rotated inside the tube 36 so that the bisector of the aperture angle of the diaphragm is always in contact with the same area of the page to be rotated. This bisector is oriented perpendicular to the page during the movement of the page to turn. This is all the more important as the page is rigid.
  • the rangefinder 48a measures the number of pages entered. If a spacer page of a thickness different from that of conventional pages is entered, this can be detected by measuring the pressure in the suction means.
  • the suction means are moved until they are arranged above the plane defined by the transparent plate 30 right. This one is then moved to the left.
  • the suction means release the page by stopping the suction.
  • the blowing duct 33 formed on the edge of the transparent plates 30 blows air before the plate comes into contact with the page to be rotated.
  • the page is pushed by an air cushion and does not come into contact with the plate. In this way, it is possible to process a particularly valuable and / or fragile document.
  • This same duct can also blow air during the separation phase of the pages.
  • the pressure applied to the document against the transparent plates 30 can be adapted to the document.
  • the document can simply be placed open on the support 11 without any pressure being applied.
  • the image of the document taken by the recording means 15 may be computerized to correct the deformations due to the lack of flatness of the document.
  • This device has many advantages over similar devices of the prior art.
  • the document can have any size between the format A6 and the format A1. It also automatically adapts to a very wide variety of grades or paper thicknesses.
  • the documents can naturally be placed closed on the support 11 without it being necessary to position them in a particular manner.
  • the speed of movement of the various components can be increased or slowed depending on the fragility of the pages of the document. All movements of these components can be motorized
  • the trays 16 can be moved vertically, it is possible to press the document against the transparent plates so that both pages are flat.
  • the control means ensure that all the pages will be turned one after the other, one page at a time.
