Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a delivery device for a sheet piece, and more particularly to an improvement of a delivery device for a sheet piece for stacking and distributing a predetermined number of sheet pieces such as slips.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 4 shows a voucher 70 which is used by pasting it on a gift or the like from a conventional department store. As shown in FIG.
The slip 70 is composed of five rectangular small slips 71 to 75. A crash number (for example, 15) 71a is printed on the upper right of the first small slip 71 and a barcode number 71b is printed on the lower right. It is printed. Each small slip 71-75
Is glued by the glued portion 76 at the left end.

FIG. 5A shows a voucher bundle 70A in which 100 of the above-mentioned vouchers 70 are aligned and bound with a rubber band 77. In FIG. 5 (B), a bundle of slips 70A is placed in a cardboard box 78.
Shows the case where is stored.

FIG. 6 (A) is a schematic view of a main part of a delivery device for manufacturing a bundle of slips 70A. As shown in FIG. 6 (A), the web W conveyed from the right side of the drawing and pre-glued at predetermined locations is cut to a predetermined size by the cut cylinder 81a and the receiving cylinder 81b which are arranged to face each other, and the slip W is formed. It becomes 70. The slip 70 is accelerated by the acceleration belt 82 and sent to the overlap belt 83. Since the acceleration belt 82 is faster than the overlap belt 83, the slip 70
The sheets are sequentially stacked on the overlap belt 83 diagonally, and are pressed by a pressing roller 85 so that the sheet is not exposed on the overlap belt. As shown in FIG. 6B, the overlapping slip 70 is divided into 100 sets by a worker (not shown) on the delivery belt 84. In this case, by temporarily increasing the speed of the overlap belt 83, as shown in FIG. 6C, the 100th sheet 70 ₁₀₁ of the previous 100 sets and
The degree of overlap with the first set 70 ₁ of the 00 set is slightly widened to make it easier for the workers to sort.

[0005]

However, these slips that have been sheet-cut and overlapped (hereinafter referred to as scissors) are collected into a certain number of sheets, aligned, bound with a rubber band, etc. to form a cardboard box. Conventionally, the work of packing a shipping box, such as a box, has been manually performed by an operator.

[0006] Such work is a simple work and a heavy work, and it is a heavy burden on the worker. In addition, the machine speed is limited by the delivery processing capability of the operator, which is one of the obstacles to productivity improvement.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a delivery device capable of speeding up the collator of this machine by reducing the load of sorting, aligning, and box packing work of continuously supplied slips (sheet pieces). To do.

[0008]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides endless conveying means for partially feeding continuously fed sheet pieces, which has drop holes for dropping a predetermined number of said sheet pieces. The first and second conveying paths are provided with a first conveying path for conveying the predetermined number of dropped sheet pieces and a second conveying path for conveying the predetermined number of sheet pieces placed on the conveying means. A predetermined number of sheet pieces, which were respectively distributed to the paths, were laminated and arranged.

[0009]

According to the present invention, for example, a sheet piece dropping device is provided on the downstream side of one sheet piece feeding device for continuously feeding sheet pieces, and the sheet piece dropping holes are placed on the latter half of the traveling direction. Place an endless conveyor belt. Then, the first piece is placed at a position for receiving the sheet piece that has fallen from the drop hole.
A conveyor belt is provided, and a second conveyor belt is provided at a position for receiving the sheet piece placed above. When the sheet piece is continuously supplied from the sheet piece supply device in this state, a predetermined number of sheet pieces corresponding to the length dimension of the drop hole drop from the drop hole,
The sheets are sequentially placed on the first conveyor belt. At this time, if the supply speed of the sheet piece supply device is set higher than the conveyance speed of the first conveyor belt, the sheet pieces are stacked obliquely on the first conveyor belt. Further, when the passage of the drop hole of the endless belt is completed, then the portion on which the sheet piece is placed arrives. The sheet pieces placed on the placing portion are sequentially stacked on the second conveyor belt. With this configuration, even if the number of sheet pieces supplied from one sheet piece supply device per unit time is increased, it is possible to stack the sheet pieces at a predetermined number. Therefore, even if the supply speed of the apparently one sheet piece supply device is increased, the sheets are stacked diagonally by a predetermined number, and the next process (for example, alignment division by the worker or alignment division by the jogger) is performed. It can be done reliably.
