The invention relates to a printer having a paper transporting cylinder and a housing provided with a panel having a paper output slit. The printer also has a device for protecting against the penetration of dust and spray water. According to the invention, the device includes a wedge which, in a first position, closes the paper output slit when the printer is not in use, and, in a second position, opens the paper output slit when the printer is in use in such a way that paper can pass though the paper output slit. The invention also has a drive for displacing the closing wedge from the first position to the second position and back.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Drucker mit einer Papiertransportwalze und einem Gehäuse mit einer Blende mit einem Papieraustrittsschlitz. Derartige Drucker werden beispielsweise in Kraftfahrzeugen benutzt, um in Tachographen gespeicherte Werte in Papierform ausgeben zu können. Gerade in Nutzfahrzeugen ist es wegen der darin auftretenden Umweltbedingungen erforderlich, eine Vorrichtung gegen das Eindringen von Staub und Spritzwasser vorzusehen. Aus dem Stand der Technik ist es bekannt, den Drucker vollständig bzw. beim Einbau des Druckers in ein Armaturenbrett eine entsprechende Blende mit einer Schutzkappe vollständig abzudecken. Zum Ausdruck von Werten muss diese Kappe entweder von Hand abgenommen werden oder durch einen aufwendigen Mechanismus weg bewegt werden. US-A-4884909 offenbart einen Drucker gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1.The invention relates to a printer with a paper feed roller and a housing with a panel with a paper exit slot. Such printers are used, for example, in motor vehicles to output values stored in tachographs in paper form. Especially in commercial vehicles, it is necessary because of the environmental conditions occurring to provide a device against the ingress of dust and spray. From the prior art it is known to completely cover the printer or when installing the printer in a dashboard a corresponding panel with a protective cap completely. To express values, this cap must either be removed by hand or moved away by a sophisticated mechanism. US-A-4884909 discloses a printer according to the preamble of claim 1.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine einfach aufgebaute Vorrichtung anzugeben, mit der ein Eindringen von Staub und Spritzwasser verhindert werden kann und die keine zusätzlichen Tätigkeiten des Benutzers des Druckers erfordern. Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, dass die Vorrichtung einen Keil aufweist, der in einer ersten Position den Papieraustrittsschlitz bei Nichtgebrauch des Druckers verschließt und in einer zweiten Position beim Gebrauch des Druckers den Papieraustrittsschlitz derart öffnet, dass Papier den Papieraustrittsschlitz passieren kann und dass ein Antrieb für die Bewegung des Verschlusskeils von der ersten in die zweite Position und zurück vorhanden ist.The object of the invention is to provide a simply constructed device, with the penetration of dust and spray can be prevented and do not require additional activities of the user of the printer. This object is achieved in that the device has a wedge which closes the paper exit slot in a first position when the printer is not in use and in a second position when using the printer, the paper exit slot such that paper can pass through the paper exit slot and that a drive for the movement of the shutter wedge from the first to the second position and back is present.

Hierbei ist von Vorteil, dass der Verschlusskeil in der zweiten Position gleichzeitig zur Führung des Papiers vorhanden ist, da durch die Keilform das Papier nicht gefaltet wird. Weiterhin kann der Keil eine Abrisskante für das Papier bilden.It is advantageous that the closure wedge is present in the second position at the same time to guide the paper, since the paper is not folded by the wedge shape. Furthermore, the wedge can form a tear-off edge for the paper.

Dadurch, dass sich der Keil in Richtung der Innenseite des Druckergehäuses verjüngt, kann in der ersten Position eine besonders ebene Blendenoberfläche realisiert werden und gleichzeitig in der zweiten Position die Abrisskante für das Papier außen liegen, da der Keil bei einer derartigen Ausgestaltung von der ersten in die zweite Position nach außen bewegt werden muss.Characterized in that the wedge tapers in the direction of the inside of the printer housing, in the first position, a particularly flat aperture surface can be realized and at the same time lie in the second position, the tear-off edge for the paper, since the wedge in such a configuration of the first in the second position has to be moved outwards.

Dadurch, dass der Keil eine Verlängerung aufweist, die sich in das Gehäuse erstreckt, kann der Keil einfach von innerhalb des Gehäuses bewegt werden.Because the wedge has an extension that extends into the housing, the wedge can be easily moved from within the housing.

Dadurch, dass die Verlängerung mit der Papiertransportwalze über eine Kupplung verbunden ist, ist kein separater Antriebsmotor für die Bewegung des Keils erforderlich.The fact that the extension is connected to the paper feed roller via a coupling, no separate drive motor for the movement of the wedge is required.

Besonders einfach ist eine reibschlüssige Kupplung einsetzbar.Particularly simple is a frictional coupling can be used.

Es ist auch möglich, ein verzahntes Getriebe, wie beispielsweise eine Zahnstange an der Verlängerung und ein Zahnrad an der Papiertransportwalze mit einer zusätzlichen Kupplung zu versehen, um den Antrieb bei Erreichen der zweiten Position abschalten zu können.It is also possible to provide a toothed gear, such as a rack on the extension and a gear on the paper feed roller with an additional clutch to turn off the drive upon reaching the second position can.

Der Aufbau der Vorrichtung gestaltet sich besonders einfach, wenn der Keil bei der Bewegung zwischen den beiden Positionen um eine Drehachse verschwenkt werden kann. Es ist auch möglich, den Keil mittels eines Schlittens zwischen beiden Positionen zu bewegen.The structure of the device is particularly simple if the wedge can be pivoted in the movement between the two positions about an axis of rotation. It is also possible to move the wedge by means of a carriage between the two positions.

In Fig. 1 erkennt man eine Blende 1 und einen Verschlusskeil 2, der einen in Fig. 1 nicht sichtbaren Papieraustrittsschlitz verschließt.In Fig. 1 one recognizes a panel 1 and a shutter wedge 2, the one in Fig. 1 not visible paper exit slot closes.

Fig. 2 zeigt den Verschlusskeil 2 in der Blende 1 in einer ersten geschlossenen Position. Die Blende 1 weist eine Gehäuseaußenseite 1a und eine Gehäuseinnenseite 1b auf. Der Verschlusskeil 2 verjüngt sich in Richtung der Gehäuseinnenseite 1b und setzt sich fort in einer Verlängerung 3 und einem Hebel 4 mit einem Anschlag 4a. Weiterhin zeigt Fig. 2 eine Antriebswalze 5, eine Papiertransportwalze 6, ein Federelement 7, Papier P und ein Druckermodul 8 mit einer Papierrolle 9. Eine Drehachse a des Hebels 4 und damit auch des Verschlusskeil 2 befindet sich unterhalb der Antriebswalze 5. Das Federelement 6 drückt die Verlängerung 3 auf die Antriebswalze 5. Das Papier P ist zwischen dem Verschlusskeil 2 und der Blende 1 eingeklemmt. So wird der Papieraustrittsschlitz gegen Staub und Spritzwasser abgedichtet. Fig. 2 shows the closure wedge 2 in the panel 1 in a first closed position. The panel 1 has a housing outer side 1a and a housing inner side 1b. The closure wedge 2 tapers in the direction of the inside of the housing 1b and continues in an extension 3 and a lever 4 with a stop 4a. Further shows Fig. 2 a rotation axis a of the lever 4 and thus also the shutter wedge 2 is located below the drive roller 5. The spring element 6 presses the extension 3 on the drive roller 5. The paper P is clamped between the shutter wedge 2 and the panel 1. Thus, the paper exit slot is sealed against dust and spray.

In Fig. 3 befindet sich der Verschlusskeil 2 in seiner zweiten Position, so dass der Papieraustrittsschlitz teilweise geöffnet ist und das Papier P ungehindert durch den Papieraustrittsschlitz passieren kann.In Fig. 3 is the shutter wedge 2 in its second position, so that the paper exit slot is partially open and the paper P can pass unhindered through the paper exit slot.

In Fig. 4 erkennt man, dass die Papiertransportwalze 6 und die Antriebswalze 5 koaxial miteinander verbunden sind und das Zusammenwirken der Verlängerung 3 mit der Antriebswalze 5 als Reibkupplung ausgestaltet ist. Hierzu weist die Verlängerung 3 in ihrem unteren Bereich eine keilförmige Ausgestaltung auf, die in einer Keilnut der Antriebswelle 5 eingreift (siehe Fig. 5).In Fig. 4 it can be seen that the paper feed roller 6 and the drive roller 5 are coaxially connected to each other and the interaction of the extension 3 with the drive roller 5 is designed as a friction clutch. For this purpose, the extension 3 in its lower region on a wedge-shaped configuration which engages in a keyway of the drive shaft 5 (see Fig. 5 ).

Das Federelement 5 drückt die Verlängerung 3 auf die Antriebswalze 5. Erfolgt ein Papiervorschub, so wird durch die Drehbewegung der Papiertransportwalze 6 das Papier P bewegt. Weiterhin bewegt die Antriebswalze 5 über die Verlängerung 3 den Verschlusskeil 2 und öffnet so den Papieraustrittsschlitz. Die erforderliche Reibkraft zwischen der Verlängerung 3 und der Antriebswalze 5 kann über das Walzenprofil und die Zugkraft des Federelementes 6 entsprechend ausgewählt werden.The spring element 5 presses the extension 3 on the drive roller 5. If a paper feed, so the paper P is moved by the rotational movement of the paper feed roller 6. Furthermore, the drive roller 5 moves over the extension 3, the shutter wedge 2 and thus opens the paper exit slot. The required frictional force between the extension 3 and the drive roller 5 can be selected according to the roller profile and the tensile force of the spring element 6.

Die Verbindung zwischen der Verlängerung 3 und der Antriebswelle 5 dient gleichzeitig als Rutschkupplung, wenn die in Fig. 2 dargestellte zweite Position erreicht ist und der Anschlag 4a an die Innenseite 1b der Blende 1 anliegt.The connection between the extension 3 and the drive shaft 5 also serves as a slip clutch when the in Fig. 2 shown second position is reached and the stopper 4a bears against the inside 1b of the panel 1.

Der Verschluss des Papieraustrittsschlitzes wird dadurch erreicht, dass die Drehrichtung der Papiertransportwalze 6 und damit der Antriebswalze 5 umgekehrt wird und solange angetrieben wird, bis der Verschlusskeil 2 an der Blende 1 anliegt und den Papieraustrittsschlitz vollständig verschließt und so der Papieraustrittsschlitz gegen Staub und Spritzwasser geschützt ist.The closure of the paper exit slot is achieved in that the direction of rotation of the paper feed roller 6 and thus the drive roller 5 is reversed and driven until the shutter wedge 2 rests against the panel 1 and the paper exit slot completely closes and so the paper exit slot is protected against dust and spray ,
