The invention is characterised in that it comprises a cam (6) including a rotation axis (7) of which each end is mounted in a fixed guide slide (12), said cam (6) being subjected to the force Fr of a return spring (15) generating a force thrusting the cam towards said plane support (4) and pressing it against this plane support, when no document (2) is passing through, along a generatrix (34) of the cam parallel to the rotation axis and substantially perpendicular to the direction (20) in which said document is inserted, and on the other hand, relative to said axis, a torque pressing the cam with a force Fa against a fixed support stop (19) preventing the cam from rotating in the direction corresponding to the torque generated by the insertion force of a document (2) in said chute between the plane support (4) and said cam (6), the cam rotation being free in the opposite direction, said cam rotation axis (7) being free to slide in said slides (12) countering said force F, such sliding bringing about a passage clearance j between said plane support and the cam, means (22, 23) being provided for limiting this free sliding to restrict this clearance j to a predetermined value, and further characterised in that the profile (35) of the cam section by a plane perpendicular to said axis is such that the cam rotation in the opposite direction brings about between said cam (6) and said plane support (4) a clearance j1, much greater than said clearance j.

Description

Dispositif de limitation d'epaisseur d'entrée d'un titre tel que ticket. carte. Device for limiting the entry thickness of a ticket such as a ticket. menu.

dans un lecteur de titres d'une machine quelconque
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de limitation d'épaisseur d'entrée d'un titre tel que ticket, carte, dans un lecteur de titres d'une machine quelconque, permettant en revanche le passage en sens inverse, vers la sortie, par le même chemin d'un titre ayant une épaisseur supérieure à l'épaisseur limite d'un titre pouvant passer dans le sens de l'entrée.
in a title reader of any machine
The present invention relates to a device for limiting the thickness of entry of a ticket such as ticket, card, in a ticket reader of any machine, however allowing passage in the opposite direction, towards the exit, by the same path of a title having a thickness greater than the limit thickness of a title which can pass in the direction of entry.

L'invention s'applique particulièrement, mais non exclusivement, aux bornes de validation de titres de transport en carton ou carton plastifié. The invention applies particularly, but not exclusively, to the validation terminals of transport tickets made of cardboard or plasticized cardboard.

II est connu d'utiliser, comme dispositif de limitation d'épaisseur, par exemple une simple fenêtre calibrée mais cela présente l'inconvénient de ne pas permettre le passage en sortie du titre et donc de provoquer un bourrage lorsque, par exemple, au cours du traitement dans la machine, le titre est plus ou moins froissé. It is known to use, as a thickness limiting device, for example a simple calibrated window, but this has the drawback of not allowing passage to the exit of the ticket and therefore of causing a jam when, for example, during of the treatment in the machine, the title is more or less crumpled.

On connaît aussi des systèmes d'obturation commandés mécaniquement ou électromécaniquement, mais ces systèmes sont coûteux et peu fiables. Also known shutter systems controlled mechanically or electromechanically, but these systems are expensive and unreliable.

L'invention a ainsi pour but de proposer un dispositif très simple palliant les inconvénients ci-dessus, et assurant un blocage franc, à limite précise, dans le sens de l'entrée, d'un titre ayant une épaisseur supérieure, même faiblement à l'épaisseur limite admise, tout en permettant dans le sens de la sortie, le passage d'un titre d'épaisseur très supérieure. The object of the invention is therefore to propose a very simple device overcoming the above drawbacks, and ensuring a frank blocking, with a precise limit, in the direction of entry, of a ticket having a thickness greater, even slightly than the permitted thickness limit, while allowing in the direction of exit, the passage of a title of much greater thickness.

L'invention a ainsi pour objet un dispositif de limitation d'épaisseur d'entrée d'un titre tel que ticket, carte, dans un lecteur de titres d'une machine quelconque, situé derrière une fente d'entrée d'une goulotte d'introduction comprenant au moins une paroi frontale et un support plan recevant le titre à introduire, caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend une came comportant un axe de rotation dont chacune de ses deux extrémités est montée dans une glissière guide fixe, ladite came étant soumise à l'effort Fr d'un ressort de rappel produisant d'une part, un effort F de poussée de la came vers ledit support plan et l'appliquant contre ce support plan, en l'absence de passage d'un titre , selon une génératrice de la came parallèle à l'axe de rotation et sensiblement perpendiculairement à la direction d'entrée d'un dit titre et d'autre part, par rapport audit axe, un couple appliquant la came avec un effort Fa contre une butée d'appui fixe empêchant la rotation de la came dans le sens correspondant au couple engendré par l'effort d'introduction d'un titre dans ladite goulotte entre le support plan et ladite came, la rotation de la came étant libre dans le sens inverse, ledit axe de rotation de la came étant libre de glisser dans lesdites glissières en s'opposant audit effort F, un tel glissement provoquant un jeu j de passage entre ledit support plan et la came, des moyens étant prévus pour limiter cette liberté de glissement de façon à limiter ce jeu j à une valeur déterminée, et en ce que le profil de la section de la came par un plan perpendiculaire audit axe étant tel que la rotation de ladite came dans ledit sens inverse provoque entre ladite came et ledit support plan un jeu j, très supérieur audit jeu j. The subject of the invention is therefore a device for limiting the thickness of entry of a ticket such as a ticket, card, into a ticket reader of any machine, located behind an entry slot of a chute. introduction comprising at least one front wall and a flat support receiving the ticket to be introduced, characterized in that it comprises a cam having an axis of rotation, each of its two ends of which is mounted in a fixed guide slide, said cam being subjected to the force Fr of a return spring producing on the one hand, a force F of pushing the cam towards said flat support and applying it against this flat support, in the absence of passage of a title, according to a generator of the cam parallel to the axis of rotation and substantially perpendicular to the entry direction of a said ticket and on the other hand, with respect to said axis, a couple applying the cam with a force Fa against a stop d fixed support preventing rotation of the cam e in the direction corresponding to the torque generated by the force of introducing a ticket into said chute between the flat support and said cam, the rotation of the cam being free in the opposite direction, said axis of rotation of the cam being free to slide in said slides while opposing said force F, such a sliding causing a clearance j of passage between said flat support and the cam, means being provided to limit this freedom of sliding so as to limit this clearance j to a determined value, and in that the profile of the section of the cam by a plane perpendicular to said axis being such that the rotation of said cam in said opposite direction causes between said cam and said plane support a clearance j, much greater than said clearance j .

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, lesdits moyens pour limiter ladite liberté de glissement dudit axe dans ses glissières comprend une butée d'arrêt de l'axe, ladite butée comportant des moyens de fixation réglable permettant d'ajuster à la valeur souhaitée la distance j séparant l'axe, dans sa position de repos où la came est en appui contre ledit support plan, de ladite butée. According to another characteristic of the invention, said means for limiting said freedom of sliding of said axis in its slides comprises a stop for stopping the axis, said stop comprising adjustable fixing means making it possible to adjust to the desired value the distance j separating the axis, in its rest position where the cam bears against said flat support, from said stop.

On va maintenant donner la description d'un exemple de mise en oeuvre de l'invention en se reportant au dessin annexé dans lequel:
La figure 1 est une vue en élévation du dispositif selon l'invention (vue de gauche de la figure 2).
We will now give the description of an exemplary implementation of the invention with reference to the appended drawing in which:
Figure 1 is an elevational view of the device according to the invention (left view of Figure 2).

La figure 2 est une coupe selon ll-ll de la figure 1. Figure 2 is a section along ll-ll of Figure 1.

La figure 3 montre isolément en élévation une pièce des figures 1 et 2. Il s'agit de la pièce appelée came, sans son axe de rotation. Figure 3 shows in isolation in elevation a part of Figures 1 and 2. It is the part called cam, without its axis of rotation.

Il s'agit d'une pièce réglable en position et servant de butée d'arrêt pour l'axe de rotation de la came. Figure 6 shows in isolation another part of the device shown in Figures 1 and 2. It is a part adjustable in position and serving as a stop for the axis of rotation of the cam.

La figure 10 est une vue semblable à celle de la figure 9 mais avant le passage du ticket sous la came, au moment où il vient buter contre elle, avec les différentes forces exercées représentées. Figure 10 is a view similar to that of Figure 9 but before the passage of the ticket under the cam, when it abuts against it, with the different forces shown.

La figure il montre le cas de l'approche de deux tickets superposés. The figure it shows the case of the approach of two superimposed tickets.

La figure 12 montre le cas de l'approche d'un ticket trop épais.  Figure 12 shows the case of approaching a ticket that is too thick.

La figure 13 montre la sortie d'un ticket ayant subi au cours de son traitement dans la machine un certain froissement augmentent son épaisseur apparente. Figure 13 shows the exit of a ticket having undergone during its treatment in the machine a certain crumpling increase its apparent thickness.

En se reportant aux figures 1 à 8, on voit une goulotte d'introduction 1 d'un ticket 2 dans une machine quelconque. II s'agit par exemple d'une borne de validation d'un titre de transport. Referring to Figures 1 to 8, we see an introduction chute 1 of a ticket 2 in any machine. It is for example a validation terminal for a transport ticket.

La goulotte 1 comporte une paroi frontale 3 et un support plan 4 servant de plan d'appui pour le passage du ticket 2. La hauteur de la fente d'entrée 5 en fond de goulotte est suffisamment faible pour interdire d'atteindre manuellement le mécanisme situé derrière. Derrière cette fente d'entrée 5 est située une came 6 représentée en détail figures 3, 4 et 5. Cette came est traversée par un axe de rotation 7. Cet axe n'est pas représenté figures 3, 4 et 5. L'axe 7 traverse la came à travers des trous 8, 9 (figure 3) percés au travers de joues latérales 10, 11 de la came dont le profil est évidé comme on le voit figure 4. The chute 1 has a front wall 3 and a flat support 4 serving as a support plane for the passage of the ticket 2. The height of the inlet slot 5 at the bottom of the chute is low enough to prevent manual reaching of the mechanism located behind. Behind this entry slot 5 is located a cam 6 shown in detail in Figures 3, 4 and 5. This cam is crossed by an axis of rotation 7. This axis is not shown in Figures 3, 4 and 5. The axis 7 crosses the cam through holes 8, 9 (FIG. 3) drilled through lateral cheeks 10, 11 of the cam, the profile of which is hollowed out as seen in FIG. 4.

L'axe 7 de la came 6 vient se placer à chacune de ses extrémités, qui dépassent extérieurement les joues 10 et 11, dans des glissières fixes 12 (figure 8) effectuée dans des parties latérales 13, 14 bordant les extrémités de la paroi frontale 3. The axis 7 of the cam 6 is placed at each of its ends, which project outwardly from the cheeks 10 and 11, in fixed slides 12 (FIG. 8) made in lateral parts 13, 14 bordering the ends of the front wall 3.

Ainsi, la came 6 avec son axe 7 repose, en position de repos, comme représenté figures 2 et 8 sur le support plan 4 en étant guidé par son axe 7 dans les glissières 12. A noter que dans cette position, I'axe 7 ne repose pas contre le fond des glissières 12, il y a un très léger jeu qui n'apparaît pas sur les figures,
L'appui se faisant par la came contre le support plan 4.
Thus, the cam 6 with its axis 7 rests, in the rest position, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 8 on the flat support 4 while being guided by its axis 7 in the slides 12. Note that in this position, the axis 7 does not rest against the bottom of the slides 12, there is a very slight play which does not appear in the figures,
The support being made by the cam against the flat support 4.

Par ailleurs, la came 6 est soumise à l'action d'un ressort 15 prenant appui d'une part contre un bouchon fixe 16 lié à une partie 17 du bâti et d'autre part contre la came 6 qui comporte un petit ergot 18 de positionnement du ressort. Ce ressort exerce contre la came 6 un effort Fr (figure 10) produisant d'une part une force F de poussée de la came contre le support plan 4 et d'autre part, par rapport à l'axe, un couple appliquant la came contre la face arrière 19 de la paroi 3, servant de butée d'appui, avec un effort Fa. Cette butée interdit la rotation de la came dans le sens horaire (voir figure 10), c'est-à-dire dans le sens qui correspond au couple engendré par l'effort d'introduction d'un ticket 2 dans la goulotte entre le support plan 4 et la came 6. Furthermore, the cam 6 is subjected to the action of a spring 15 bearing on the one hand against a fixed plug 16 linked to a part 17 of the frame and on the other hand against the cam 6 which has a small lug 18 spring positioning. This spring exerts against the cam 6 a force Fr (FIG. 10) producing on the one hand a force F pushing the cam against the plane support 4 and on the other hand, with respect to the axis, a torque applying the cam against the rear face 19 of the wall 3, serving as a support stop, with a force Fa. This stop prevents the rotation of the cam clockwise (see FIG. 10), that is to say in the direction which corresponds to the torque generated by the effort of introducing a ticket 2 into the chute between the plane support 4 and the cam 6.

Dans cette position de repos la came 6 est donc en butée contre la face 19 et en appui contre le support plan 4 selon une génératrice de la came parallèle à l'axe géométrique de l'axe 7 et sensiblement perpendiculairement à la direction d'entrée d'un titre 2 dans le dispositif, figurée par la flèche 20. In this rest position the cam 6 is therefore in abutment against the face 19 and in abutment against the plane support 4 along a generatrix of the cam parallel to the geometric axis of the axis 7 and substantially perpendicular to the direction of entry. of a title 2 in the device, represented by the arrow 20.

Dans le sens anti-horaire, comme on le voit sur les figures, en particulier sur les figures 9 et 10, la rotation de la came est libre, en s'opposant bien sûr à l'effort Fr du ressort 15. Counterclockwise, as can be seen in the figures, in particular in Figures 9 and 10, the rotation of the cam is free, of course opposing the force Fr of the spring 15.

Comme on le voit sur la figure 8, la came 6 est libre, en s'opposant à l'effort F dû au ressort 15, de monter dans les glissières 12 et donc de s'éloigner du support plan 4. Afin de limiter cet éloignement à un jeu déterminé j (entre la surface 4 et la génératrice inférieure de la came 6), le dispositif est équipé de moyens pour limiter la liberté de glissement de l'axe 7 dans ses glissières 12. li s'agit d'une pièce 21, réglable en position, représentée isolément figures 6 et 7 comportant une partie centrale 22 à section en équerre qui est fixée au bâti 23 (figure 2) par deux vis 24 passant par deux trous oblongs 25 (figure 6) permettant un réglage en hauteur au moyen de deux vis 26 (figures 1 et 2) venant se visser dans des écrous 27 (figures 6 et 7) fixés à la pièce 21, et s'appuyant contre une platine 28 du bâti 23 (figure 2). La pièce 21 comporte à chaque extrémité un prolongement 29 ayant une section en équerre dont les deux branches sont référencées 30 et 31, la branche 31 de chaque prolongement 29 comportant une avancée 32 surplombant l'axe 7 de la came et dont le bord inférieur 33 sert de butée d'arrêt pour l'axe 7. Sur la figure 10 on voit le jeu j entre ce bord 33 et l'axe 7. La valeur de ce jeu correspond à l'épaisseur maximale d'un ticket pouvant passer dans le sens de la flèche 20. Ce jeu j est réglable par les vis 26. As can be seen in FIG. 8, the cam 6 is free, by opposing the force F due to the spring 15, to mount in the slides 12 and therefore to move away from the plane support 4. In order to limit this away from a determined clearance j (between the surface 4 and the lower generatrix of the cam 6), the device is equipped with means for limiting the freedom of sliding of the axis 7 in its slides 12. li it is a part 21, adjustable in position, shown separately in FIGS. 6 and 7 comprising a central part 22 with an angled section which is fixed to the frame 23 (FIG. 2) by two screws 24 passing through two oblong holes 25 (FIG. 6) allowing adjustment in height by means of two screws 26 (Figures 1 and 2) being screwed into nuts 27 (Figures 6 and 7) fixed to the part 21, and pressing against a plate 28 of the frame 23 (Figure 2). The part 21 comprises at each end an extension 29 having a square section, the two branches of which are referenced 30 and 31, the branch 31 of each extension 29 comprising a projection 32 overhanging the axis 7 of the cam and whose lower edge 33 serves as a stop for the axis 7. In FIG. 10 we see the clearance j between this edge 33 and the axis 7. The value of this clearance corresponds to the maximum thickness of a ticket that can pass through the direction of arrow 20. This clearance j is adjustable by the screws 26.

Enfin, comme on le voit bien sur les figures 4, 5, et 9 à 13, le profil de la section de la came 6, par un plan perpendiculaire à l'axe 7, comprend, au-delà de la génératrice 34 d'appui de la came en position de repos contre le support plan 4, un plan incliné 35 raide se rapprochant fortement de l'axe 7 de telle sorte que, lors d'une rotation de la came 6 dans le sens anti-horaire, voir figure 13, le jeu j, entre le support plan 4 et la came 6 est très supérieur au jeu j maximal qui se forme entre ces mêmes pièces lorsque, poussée par un ticket 36 trop épais (figure 12) ou par deux tickets 37 superposés (figure 11) poussés dans le sens de l'entrée 20, la came 6 se soulève et vient en butée contre la butée d'arrêt 33 de la pièce 21. Finally, as can be seen in FIGS. 4, 5, and 9 to 13, the profile of the section of the cam 6, by a plane perpendicular to the axis 7, comprises, beyond the generator 34 d ' support of the cam in the rest position against the plane support 4, a steep inclined plane 35 approaching strongly to the axis 7 so that, when the cam 6 rotates counterclockwise, see figure 13, the clearance j, between the plane support 4 and the cam 6 is much greater than the maximum clearance j which is formed between these same parts when, pushed by a ticket 36 which is too thick (FIG. 12) or by two overlapping tickets 37 (FIG. 11) pushed in the direction of entry 20, the cam 6 lifts and abuts against the stopper 33 of the part 21.

La figure 9 montre ainsi le passage d'un ticket 2 dont l'épaisseur correspond juste au réglage du jeu j entre la came et la butée 33 de la pièce 21 en position de repos la came, par son axe 7, vient donc en butée contre 33 et le jeu j se reporte à la partie inférieure permettant juste le passage du ticket d'épaisseur limite. FIG. 9 thus shows the passage of a ticket 2, the thickness of which corresponds just to the adjustment of the clearance j between the cam and the stop 33 of the part 21 in the rest position the cam, by its axis 7, therefore comes into abutment against 33 and the game j refers to the lower part allowing just the passage of the limit thickness ticket.

La figure 10 montre le ticket 2 avant son passage sous la came, le jeu j est situé entre l'axe 7 et la butée 33. Le ticket vient en appui contre la came et exerce un effort Fb contre la came se décomposant en une composante horizontale Fp ne provoquant aucune rotation de la came car elle est en butée en 19, et une composante verticale F, s'opposant à la force F et provoquant le soulèvement de la came. FIG. 10 shows the ticket 2 before it passes under the cam, the clearance j is located between the axis 7 and the stop 33. The ticket comes to bear against the cam and exerts a force Fb against the cam breaking down into a component horizontal Fp causing no rotation of the cam because it is in abutment at 19, and a vertical component F, opposing the force F and causing the lifting of the cam.

Sur la figure 11, les tickets 37 superposés ne passent pas car leur épaisseur totale est supérieure au jeu j. Le blocage est franc. In FIG. 11, the superimposed tickets 37 do not pass because their total thickness is greater than the clearance j. The blocking is frank.

II en est exactement de même pour un unique ticket 36 trop épais, figure 12. It is exactly the same for a single ticket 36 which is too thick, FIG. 12.

Enfin, la figure 13 montre le cas de la restitution d'un ticket 2 d'épaisseur convenable, qui est entré correctement dans la machine, mais qui, lors de son traitement, a subi un certain froissement augmentant son épaisseur apparente. Finally, FIG. 13 shows the case of the return of a ticket 2 of suitable thickness, which entered correctly into the machine, but which, during its processing, underwent a certain crumpling increasing its apparent thickness.

L'effort Fb du ticket contre la face 35 de la came 6 provoque la rotation de la came contre l'effort Fr, on obtient un jeu j, important et le ticket peut passer. The force Fb of the ticket against the face 35 of the cam 6 causes the rotation of the cam against the force Fr, a clearance j is obtained which is large and the ticket can pass.
