Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for the treatment of information carriers according to the preamble of claim 1 and as known from the EP 1 072 520 A1 ,
- Such information carriers are, for example, RFID labels and thus carriers provided with a back-side adhesive surface which are equipped with contact-based or instead contactless and antenna-equipped integrated circuits and which are detachably held and transported by the adhesive surface on a band-shaped web ,
- the problem arises, as e.g. to remove and discard information carriers determined to be inoperable from the railway. This must be done as continuously as possible and at high speed by machine.
- the invention has for its object to provide a device for the treatment of information carriers of the type mentioned, which makes it possible, selected, in particular determined to be inoperative, information carrier in a web run, the continuous and high Speed is quickly and reliably removed from the web without damaging the web with the information carriers and without interrupting the continuous pass.
- the design of the device according to the invention makes it possible to sort out and remove quickly and reliably identified as inoperable detected information carrier with continuous passage of the information carriers provided with high transport speed and without the train thereby takes damage or even tearing.
- the device is simple and reliable and creates, among other things, the conditions for such information carrier, which need not be sorted out, but initially at least partially with surface areas or completely detached from the web, press back to the web and thus restore the Klebestalterung ,
- a device 10 adapted to handle information carriers 11 which are transported successively, for example at intervals therebetween, on at least one longitudinally moved web 12.
- These information carriers 11 are, for example, RFID labels, for example labels, tickets or the like, and in particular those which are designed as carriers with integrated circuits.
- the integrated Circuits can usually be contact-type or they are contactless and provided with antennas, so that contactless information exchange with these information carriers 11 is possible.
- the respective carrier carrying an integrated circuit of the information carrier 11 has a back-side adhesive surface 13 and is held detachably on the upper side 14 of the web 12, for example by gluing it.
- the device 10 according to the invention is characterized by at least one device 20, by means of which at least some selected information carrier 11 of the web 12, the continuously continuously in the direction of arrow 15, that is in Fig. 1 and 2 from left to right, is moved, at least partially or completely removable.
- the device 20 are selected from this completely or partially detached information carriers 11 selected information carrier, as in the example of the information carrier 11a in Fig. 2 is clarified, in particular as inoperative detected information carrier 11a, removable, while the remaining at least partially or completely detached information carrier 11 are again transferred to the web 12 for further transport in the direction of arrow 15.
- the device 20 has a deflecting device 21 which deflects the web 12 out of its level and course and then returns it to its level at a distance therefrom, which can be adjustable and, under certain circumstances, very low.
- This process is in Fig. 1 regarding there with 11 b designated information carrier clearly due to the successful reversal of the web 12 is already detached in the transport direction of the web 12 front portion due to the web deflection from the top 14 of the web 12 and exposed on this section with its bottom adhesive surface 13 and no longer connected with the train 12 has.
- the deflection device 21 has a deflection member 22, which in the first embodiment of a slider 23, in the second embodiment according to Fig. 3 however, is formed from a rolling body 33, in particular in the form of a deflection roller.
- the deflecting member 22 in the first embodiment in the form of the local slip body 23 is formed, for example, from a deflection edge 24, for example, a web or knife edge.
- the deflecting device 21 further has, viewed along the deflected trajectory, at a distance from the deflecting member 22 at least a first deflecting body 25, which is in particular designed as a deflection roller.
- This first deflecting body 25 is placed with respect to the deflecting member 22 and the trajectory so that by means of the deflecting member 22, the web 12 at the deflecting edge 24 by such a sufficient angle, which here is about 90 °, from the web level and trajectory is deflected out in that as a result of this web deflection, the web 12 in the region of the deflection edge 24 is separated from the individual information carriers 11, as in FIG Fig.
- FIG. 1 is shown for the information carrier 11 b, with detachment of the information carrier 11 b removed, wherein the information carrier 11, such as the information carrier 11b, thereby remain at least substantially at the web level.
- the detached information carrier 11 so do not make the deflection of the web 12, which is made so just to a detachment of the individual information carrier 11 with the lower-side adhesive surface 13 from the top 14th to effect the web 12 in an automatic manner.
- This replacement is in Fig. 1 shown for the information carrier 11 b, namely the front portion, which is detached from the web 12, but still remains substantially at web level.
- the distance between the deflecting member 22 and the first deflecting body 25, in particular the deflection roller, is variable and adjustable.
- the first deflecting body 25 is adjustable with respect to its distance from the deflecting member 22, which is indicated by the arrow 26 and an adjusting device 27, for example in the form of an actuating cylinder.
- the deflection device 21 has a deflecting member 22 adjacent to the web 12 on the level and course recirculating second deflecting body 28, which is for example also designed as a deflection roller.
- the second deflecting body 28 may be adjustable together with the web 12 out of the web level and web path, in particular in such a direction that faces away from the first deflecting body 25, that is to say in FIG Fig. 1 and 2 upwards. Due to the arrangement of the second deflecting body 28, the web 12 thus moves back to its original level due to deflection.
- an information carrier 11a (FIG. Fig. 2 ) are selected as to be removed from the web 12 and to be sorted out, for example due to malfunction, so this Huawei adoptedde information carrier 11a is removed differently than the information carrier 11 b, so that it does not get back on the top 14 of the web 12 and in adhesive bonding therewith .
- the device 20 has a removal device 40 for removing individual information carriers 11a remote from the web 12.
- the removal device 40 is designed in such a way that by means of these information carriers 11a selected, at least or without exception, in particular identified as inoperative, from which the web 12 has moved away due to web deflection, are detected and transported out of the region of the web 12.
- the removal device 40 has a suction and / or pressure device 41 for suction / pressurization of the information carrier 11 and transport away, for example, defective information carrier 11.
- This suction and / or pressure device 41 has at least one drum 42 which is continuously or intermittently rotatably driven about an axis 43 by means of a drive not shown in a direction of rotation according to arrow 44.
- the drum 42 is adjacent to the web 12, in such a way that a peripheral portion approximately in the region of the deflecting member 22 or between the deflecting member 22 and the second deflecting body 28 is arranged.
- the direction of rotation of the driven drum 42 according to arrow 44 corresponds to the web transport direction according to arrow 15, that is to say corresponds to the counterclockwise direction.
- the drum 42 can preferably be driven at a speed corresponding to the transport speed of the web 12.
- the drum 42 has on its peripheral surface openings 45 which communicate with respective chambers 46.
- the chambers 46 in turn are acted upon by a source not further shown with gas, in particular air, said medium is as needed for the Saugbeaufschlagung under negative pressure or for the pressurization under pressure. This is achieved that about the drum 42 and the openings 45th by gas, in particular air, a suction and / or pressurization of individual information carrier 11 is possible.
- the drum 42 has an undeformable periphery with circumferentially distributed openings 45.
- the drum 42 may be formed for the mere Saugbeetzschung and suction of individual information carrier 11a.
- this removal device 40, in particular drum 42 for example, only activated and supplied with negative pressure when supplied by a tester a corresponding signal for the extraction of a detected as defective information carrier 11 a and therefore at least those chambers 46 and thus in Negative pressure is applied to connecting openings 45 which are located in the area of the information carrier 11a already to be sucked away from the web 12 with its front section.
- the removal device 40 in this configuration also makes it possible to suck in succession from the web 12 detached information carrier 11 each by applying vacuum to the circumference of the drum 42 and initially move from the area of the web 12, and then by the further circulation of the drum 42 by appropriate Control of individual openings 45 and associated chambers 46 as eg defective information carrier 11a to be blown off by overpressure in the direction of a collection point and the rest, by suction on the circumference of the drum 42 adhering information carrier 11 in the drum circulation and reaching the web 12 back to this e.g. to be passed by pressurizing through the openings 45 and chambers 46. With this transfer, the pressurization can still be supported in such a way that thereby the respective information carrier 11 is pressed with its lower-side adhesive surface 13 on the upper side 14 of the web 12.
- the removal device 40 even if it is designed for the mere suction and suction of defective information carrier 11 a, also usable so that by means of the drum 42 a pressing of those information carrier 11 b can be made to the web 12, the first with surface areas, for. B. with their front portion, are detached from the web 12, but not as such, which were found to be defective, should be removed, but remain at the level of the web 12 and transferred as possible without space again on the web 12 for further transport should.
- By pressurizing the openings 45 of the drum area, which is at the level of in Fig. 1 is exposed to the front surface area of the information carrier 11b exposed, it can thus be pressed with its adhesive surface 13 to the top 14 of the web 12 during further transport. He remains at the railway level. A possible misalignment on the web 12 can be avoided here.
- the device 20, in particular the removal device 40 therefore, if necessary, also opens up this possibility.
- the removal device 40 in particular drum 42, is an in Fig. 1 and 2 schematically associated recording device 50, to which those information carrier 11a ( Fig. 2 ) are delivered, which were received by means of the removal device 40, in particular sucked, have been.
- This receiving device 50 has an example of paper, cardboard or the like.
- existing cylinder 51 which is held by a holder 52 and circumferentially pressed against the circumference of the drum 42.
- the cylinder 51 is located in the direction of arrow 44 viewed in the circumferential distance of the deflection device 21 adjacent peripheral region of the drum 42, for example at a distance with a circumferential angle of about 90 °.
- the information carrier 11a adhering to it and transported away therefrom is transferred to the cylinder 51, wherein, for example, the information carrier 11a with its rear adhesive surface 13 adheres to the circumferential surface of the cylinder 51 by adhesion.
- the cylinder 51 is pressed against the circumferential surface of the drum 42, wherein with increasing number of adhering to the cylinder 51 information carrier 11 a of the cylinder circumference grows. If the cylinder 51 has reached a certain diameter, it can be removed and replaced by a new one.
- information carriers 11a of the web 12 arise on these gaps. These can later be filled by additionally applied functional information carriers 11, so that then a web 12 with successive functional information carriers 11 is present.
- the second embodiment differs from the first only in that, instead of a sliding body 23, a rolling body 33, for example in the form of a deflection roller, is provided as the deflection member 22.
- drum 42 has on at least one peripheral portion or, as shown here, on its full circumference, a perforated flexible cover 57, such as a membrane on.
- the drum 42 is formed as required both for negative pressure and suction of respective to be removed information carrier 11 as well as overpressurization and pressing of such information carrier 11 by means of the flexible cover 57 to the web 12, which are detached from the web 12, but not are removed, but are to be pressed back to the web 12.
- the drum 42 is formed here as a circumferentially driven ring 58 which is held and guided on a fixed support member 59.
- This support member 59 has a cylindrical peripheral surface 60 and in this peripheral channels, for example, two peripheral channels 61 and 62 (FIG. Fig.
- the flexible cover 57 is acted upon with negative pressure for suction through the openings 45 and / or overpressure for at least slight bulging of the flexible cover 57, including the peripheral channels 61, 62 with a not further shown source of negative pressure or pressure in connection or are brought on a case by case basis.
- the arrangement may be such that a peripheral channel, for example, the peripheral channel 61, which extends over the largest peripheral portion of the support member 59, for example, about 90% of the circumference, only with negative pressure for suction respective information carrier 11 is acted upon.
- Another circumferential channel, for example, the peripheral channel 62 may then extend over the remaining peripheral portion of the support member 59 and optionally applied with vacuum for sucking respective information carrier 11 or pressure for pressing respective information carrier 11 through the cover 57 to the web 12.
- the removal device 40 is an operation possible in which successively all the information carrier 11 are removed by suction.
- Such information carrier 11, which are good, so are functional, can be dispensed by the drum 42 again by circulation of the drum 42 and re-reaching the web 12 by overpressurization and passed to the web 12 by pressing.
- the transfer of information carriers 11 to the web 12 can also be accomplished or at least supported that the second deflecting body 28 in Fig. 1 to 3 is moved together with the over it web 12 upwards in the direction of the drum 42 and thereby the web 12 is pressed against the drum circumference.
- the removal device 40 according to 4 and 5 is also operable so that the large circumferential channel 61 is acted upon by negative pressure, so that when circulating the drum 42 in the form of the ring 58 whose each with this circulation channel 61 communicating chambers 46 and thereby located there openings 45 of the flexible cover 57 only be acted upon with negative pressure for sucking eg defective information carrier 11a.
- the other, smaller peripheral channel 62 can be subjected to negative pressure or overpressure as desired, wherein in the vacuum case, a suction of information carriers takes place and in the case of overpressure information carrier can be pressed by the flexibility of the cover 57 and bulging them to the web 12.

Bei derartigen mittels der Bahn 12 transportierten Informationsträgern 11 besteht das Problem, solche Informationsträger 11, die auf Grund einer durchgeführten Prüfung als schadhaft, insbesondere funktionsunfähig, festgestellt wurden, von der Bahn 12 zu trennen und zu entfernen. Dabei wird verlangt, dass dies bei kontinuierlichem und mit großer Geschwindigkeit erfolgendem Durchlauf der Bahn 12 mit Informationsträgern 11 darauf geschieht, und dabei derart, dass die Bahn 12 dabei nicht beschädigt wird, insbesondere nicht reißt.In such transported by means of the
Diesen Anforderungen wird die Einrichtung 10 gemäß der Erfindung in hohem Maße gerecht und dabei bei einfacher und betriebssicherer Gestaltung. Die Einrichtung 10 ist erfindungsgemäß gekennzeichnet durch zumindest eine Vorrichtung 20, mittels der zumindest einige ausgewählte Informationsträger 11 von der Bahn 12, die fortlaufend kontinuierlich in Pfeilrichtung 15, das heißt in

Die Umlenkeinrichtung 21 weist ferner, entlang dem umgelenkten Bahnverlauf betrachtet, in Abstand von dem Umlenkglied 22 mindestens einen ersten Umlenkkörper 25 auf, der insbesondere als Umlenkrolle ausgebildet ist. Dieser erste Umlenkkörper 25 ist in Bezug auf das Umlenkglied 22 und den Bahnverlauf so platziert, dass mittels des Umlenkgliedes 22 die Bahn 12 an der Umlenkkante 24 um einen derart ausreichenden Winkel, der hier etwa 90° beträgt, aus dem Bahnniveau und Bahnverlauf heraus umlenkbar ist, dass infolge dieser Bahnumlenkung sich die Bahn 12 im Bereich der Umlenkkante 24 von den einzelnen Informationsträgern 11, wie in
Der Abstand zwischen dem Umlenkglied 22 und dem ersten Umlenkkörper 25, insbesondere der Umlenkrolle, ist veränderbar und einstellbar. Zu diesem Zweck ist der erste Umlenkkörper 25 hinsichtlich seines Abstandes von dem Umlenkglied 22 verstellbar, was durch den Pfeil 26 und eine Verstelleinrichtung 27 zum Beispiel in Form eines Stellzylinders angedeutet ist.The distance between the deflecting
