Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of mail processing and more particularly relates to a storage device for mail processing machine.
  • the present invention proposes to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks with a storage device for mail processing machine comprising a receiving plate on a longitudinal edge of which extends a reference wall, said receiving plate being traversed by a belt conveyor for conveying mail items along said referencing wall, characterized in that it further comprises a damping wedge disposed in the angle formed by said receiving plate and said reference wall and on which said mailpieces will impact after ejection from said mail processing machine before falling back on said conveyor belt for conveying to said inclined plane.
  • said damping wedge is a straight prism based on a right triangle having a first lateral face, a second lateral face perpendicular to the first and a third lateral face joining said first and second faces.
  • said first lateral face comprises a heel for resting on said receiving plate and said heel forms substantially 1/3 of the total width of said first lateral face.
  • said second lateral face comprises an adhesive or magnetic zone for fixing it on said reference wall and said third lateral face has a concave shape having tangents at the vertices making angles ⁇ 1 and ⁇ 2, which may be identical or different, between 20 and 25 °.
  • said damping corner extends over a length corresponding at least to the length of a standard format label, typically about 110 mm, and it extends over a width corresponding at least to the maximum width of an envelope flap. typically about 50 mm.
  • the figure 1 illustrates a storage device 10 conventionally comprising a rectangular receiving plate 12 traversed by a conveyor belt 14 which extends along its entire length along a longitudinal reference wall 16 and of which an opposite end lateral edge at a lateral input edge of the device is formed by An inclined plane 18.
  • the angle formed by the inclined plane and the receiving plate is preferably of the order of 45 ° to plus or minus 10 °.
  • the continuity between the longitudinal wall and the inclined plane is through a connecting flange 20.
  • the receiving plate and referencing wall which are at an angle of 90 ° between them is advantageously inclined backwards (thus away from the operator ) a few degrees from the horizontal.
  • the conveyor belt 14 sized for processing standard envelopes does not make the entire width of the receiving tray (about 300 mm) but about 2/3 of this width (or 200 mm) and it does not flop the referencing wall 16 but is instead distant from it a maximum width of flap, about 50mm, for avoid that the flaps of the envelopes get caught under the belt, which will cause jams.
  • This device may further comprise a pivoting arm (not shown) movable both vertically about a hinge axis fixed perpendicularly to the reference wall and horizontally along a displacement rail fixed to the wall of the housing. referenced and on which is mounted a set of friction rollers and advantageously a holding roller for increasing the storage capacity of the stack by compressing against the inclined plane and, for the mail articles of large thickness, arch these items and thus facilitate their integration on the front of the pile.
  • a pivoting arm (not shown) movable both vertically about a hinge axis fixed perpendicularly to the reference wall and horizontally along a displacement rail fixed to the wall of the housing. referenced and on which is mounted a set of friction rollers and advantageously a holding roller for increasing the storage capacity of the stack by compressing against the inclined plane and, for the mail articles of large thickness, arch these items and thus facilitate their integration on the front of the pile.
  • the device further comprises a mechanism 22 comprising a frame 24 integral with the device and supporting, for example by means of two articulated support arms 26A, 26B (a connection with a single arm is good understood as possible), a retractable / retractable ski member 28 which is supported on the top of the stack of mail items substantially along its entire length.
  • the ski piece can for example take two different positions depending on the format of these mail items, a low position, as illustrated by the figure 2 and a high position in which this piece goes up to come to the same level as the frame.
  • the storage device furthermore comprises a right damping corner prism 30 disposed in the angle formed by the receiving plate 12 and the referencing wall 16 and extending advantageously from the entrance of the storage device, or not far from it (for example at 70 mm thus allowing a centering of the outgoing card format mail items directly from the franking machine), over a distance corresponding at least to the length of a standard label, about 110 mm and a width such that the corner does not cover the conveyor belt 14, typically of the order of 40 mm for a belt disposed at 50 mm from the reference wall.
  • This right prism based on a right triangle rests on the receiving plate by a heel 32A of a first 32 of its three lateral faces and is attached to the referencing wall by a second lateral face 34 perpendicular to the first, the third and last lateral face 36 sloping joining the two previous having a concave shape, slightly hollow, with tangents to the vertices making angles ⁇ 1 and ⁇ 2 identical or not, between 20 and 25 °.
  • the heel 32A of the first lateral face 32 forms substantially 1/3 of its total width, the remaining portion acting as a chamfer to allow perfect positioning of the prism in the 90 ° angle formed by the receiving plate and the wall of the referenced, taking into account manufacturing tolerances of the various elements involved.
  • the second lateral face 34 comprises an adhesive or magnetic zone 34A for fixing, depending on the nature of the referencing wall, respectively plastic or metallic, the damping wedge on the device.
  • the damping function of the wedge is favored by the very nature of its material, advantageously a hard and slippery plastic of the type: polypropylene (PP), polyamide (PA), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene / polycarbonate (ABS / PC), ...
  • the ski piece is, depending on the format of the mail items to be stored, either in the low position or in the high position.
  • a first mail item is ejected from the mail processing machine at 90 ° on the receiving tray 12
  • it comes into contact with the slope of the cushioning wedge and back on it until the energy kinetics of the mail piece is zero, then it descends by sliding along this slope to the conveyor belt 14.
  • the wedge therefore has the effect of damping the impact of the mail article against the wall of referencing and then position it on the conveyor belt always in the same way (thus avoiding the effect of the random rebound that existed on the devices of the prior art) before being conveyed flat towards the inclined plane 18 who raises him up.
  • the process then continues with the second and then the following mail items that will accumulate on each other. Due to the presence of the ski piece, the top of the stack is perfectly tamed, which allows its homogenization during storage. In addition, the stress exerted by the ski on the top of the stack, causing an increase in the adhesion of the mail items on the conveyor belt, will compress the stack and increase the storage capacity of the device while avoiding a collapse of this pile.
