Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an automatic stamp transfer device installed at tourist spots, expositions, stations, etc., for transferring commemorative stamps onto paper.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, commemorative stamps installed at various places, tourist spots, stations, etc. have been either manually pressed or electrically operated with a simple mechanism.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, with manual stamps, the transferred characters, symbols, designs, etc. tend to be unclear or have shading depending on the amount of ink applied and the amount of pressure applied, and there is also the problem that the ink may stick to hands etc. It was hot. On the other hand, electric stamps can be said to be superior in that they can overcome the disadvantages of the manual stamp described above.

However, there are very few conventional stamps, whether manual or electric, that have numbers such as dates and numbers stamped in addition to designs (stamp-type stamps, not printers), and even if they exist, However, in most cases, the design and numbers were physically separated from each other on the stamp paper. The main reason for this is that when a date stamp is incorporated into a graphic stamp, the stamp as a whole becomes larger and more complicated.Date stamps are generally rotatable because the date changes every day. In that case, it is difficult to align the stamp surface of the date stamp and the stamp surface of the design stamp on almost the same plane, making it impossible to clearly transfer both the date and design, and it is faster to transfer the date and design clearly. This seems to be due to wear.

[Means for solving problems]

The automatic stamp transfer device according to the present invention was developed to solve the above-mentioned problems, and is capable of reciprocating between a standby position and a stamping position, is normally held at the standby position, and is moved up and down at the stamping position. a stamp pressing body including a first stamp, a second stamp disposed above the stamping position so as to be movable up and down, a drive motor, and a drive motor that operates to press the first stamp. a link mechanism including a cam that moves from the standby position to the stamping position; a first rotary lever that operates with a certain time difference from the link mechanism to push down the stamp pressing body; a second rotary lever that presses down the stamp pressing body by operating after the movable lever is restored; and by pressing down the stamp pressing body twice with the first and second rotary levers, The stamping operation using the first and second stamps is performed sequentially.

[Effect]

The present invention includes a first stamp that moves back and forth between the standby position and the stamping position, and a second stamp that is placed above the stamping position, so there is no need to move the stamp paper. Furthermore, it is possible to incorporate a date, a number, etc. into the design or at a position adjacent to the design without having to integrate both of these stamps and aligning the stamp surfaces.

Note that 75 is a vertically movable paper presser whose lower end faces the insertion slot 9, 76 is a spring that urges the paper presser 76 downward, and 77 is a paper detection sensor.

Next, the operation of the automatic stamp transfer device 1 configured as described above will be explained based mainly on FIGS. 2 to 5.

In the state shown in FIG. 2, when the stamp paper 8 is inserted into the case 5 from the insertion slot 9 along the guide plate 10, the paper detection sensor 77 detects this.
The drive motor 16 is driven. In this case, the user operates the switch to activate the drive motor 16 after inserting the paper 8 into the insertion slot 9, regardless of the paper detection sensor 77.
It may also be configured to drive. Drive motor 16
When driven, the rotation of the output shaft 39 is transmitted at a reduced speed from the drive gear 40 to the driven gear 41, causing the shaft 45 to rotate once clockwise in FIG. 14 are sequentially performed, and one transfer operation is completed.

That is, when the shaft 45 starts to rotate, the cam 17 also rotates together with it, so the first link 56
When the cam follower 54 is pressed by the first linear cam surface 46 of the cam 17, it rotates clockwise against the spring 57. Then, the roller 55 descends along the long hole 60 of the second link 59, so the second link 59 is rotated counterclockwise about the shaft 58, moving the first stamp 13 from the standby position 31 to the stamping position. Move to 32. This movement is made possible by the lower end of the second link 59 pressing the pressed portion 38 of the stamp holder 27 and moving the holder 27 forward along the guide hole 35. FIG. 3 shows this state. At this time,
The rollers 43, 44 have not yet come into contact with the roller contact portions 19B, 20B of the first and second rotating levers 19, 20, so both rotating levers 19, 20 and the stamp pressing body 15 are at the initial position. maintain the condition. When the cam 17 rotates by a predetermined angle, the cam follower 54 moves from the first linear cam surface 46 to the first arcuate cam surface 48, and while rolling on this cam surface 48, the first stamp 13 is stamped. It is set and held at position 32. When the cam 17 further rotates and the cam follower 54 reaches approximately the center of the first arcuate cam surface 48, the roller 43 touches the roller contact portion of the first rotating lever 19, as shown in FIG. 19B from below and push it up, the first rotating lever 19 is rotated clockwise about the shaft 58 and pushes down the stamp pressing body 15. Then, the stamp pressing body 15 presses the first stamp 13
is pushed down against the spring 29 and pressed against the stamp paper 8 with constant pressure. As a result, the first
For example, a pattern 80 as shown in FIG. 6 of the stamp 13 is transferred onto the stamp paper 8 in a predetermined color.
In this case, the first stamp 13 is one with a built-in ink pad (not shown) such as a sponge, so that replenishment of ink is not required for a certain period of time. On the other hand, to supply ink to the second stamp 14, the stamp pressing body 15 is operated by the first lever 1.

22308).

Furthermore, when the stamp pressing body 15 descends,
The second lever 20 also rotates around the shaft 69.

When the roller 43 comes off the roller contact portion 19B of the first rotating lever 19, the lever 19
Since it is released from the roller 43, the pressing of the stamp pressing body 15 is released. As a result, the stamp pressing body 15 returns to the upward position by the force of the spring 67, and the first
The rotating lever 19 is returned to its original initial position. On the other hand, when the first stamp 13 is released from the stamp pressing body 15, it is raised back up by the force of the spring 29 and brought into pressure contact with the lower surface of the stamp holder 27, thereby completing the stamp transfer operation.

Next, as the cam 17 rotates, the cam follower 54
When the first link 56 moves from the first arcuate cam surface 48 to the second straight cam surface 47, the first link 56 is gradually restored by the force of the spring 57. In conjunction with this, the second link 59 also rotates back, so the stamp holder 27 is released from the second link 59, and the force of the spring 30 causes the guide hole 35 (see FIG. 2).
, and return the first stamp 13 to its original standby position 31. When the first stamp 13 completely returns to the standby position 31 and stops, the fifth stamp 13 returns to the standby position 31 and stops.
As shown in the figure, the roller 44 is connected to the second rotating lever 2.
In order to push up the roller contact portion 20B of No. 0 from below, the lever 20 is rotated clockwise, and the stamp pressing body 15 is lowered by the pressing portion 20A. Therefore, the stamp pressing body 15 has a spring 67
The date (or number) 81 is stamped by the first stamp 13 as shown in FIG. It is transferred to the margin portion (or the vicinity thereof) of the transferred pattern 80. Then, when the roller 44 comes off the roller contact portion 20B, the stamp pressing body 15 is moved to the second position.
Since it is released from the pressure by the rotating lever 20, it returns to the upward position by the force of the spring 67, and the transfer operation by the automatic stamp transfer device 1 is then completed.

It should be noted that while the automatic stamp transfer device 1 is in operation, a guidance message is emitted for service from a speaker (not shown) built in the chamber 12 below the case 5.

[Effect of idea]

As described above, the automatic stamp transfer device according to the present invention includes a stamp for transferring a design, etc.
A stamp for transferring the date, number, etc. is arranged separately, and the stamp pressing body is raised and lowered twice to sequentially press and transfer both stamps onto the stamp paper, so that the stamp paper can be transferred. Dates, numbers, etc. can be stamped into the design without moving it, or dates, numbers, etc. can be stamped close to the design. especially,
Since no stamps such as date or number are incorporated into the design stamp, the design stamp does not become large or complicated, and the date, number, etc.
Changing the number is easy, and you can get a clear commemorative stamp.
