JPH068349U - A mechanism for feeding out fixed-size ticket paper - Google Patents

Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To provide a mechanism for feeding a card paper one by one, which is capable of stable feeding without affecting the state of the card paper. [Structure] The pressing plates 2a, 2b divided into two parts are rotatable about shafts 3a, 3b as fulcrums, and are biased in a direction of pressing both ends of the card paper 1 by torsion springs 21a, 21b. As a result, the card paper 1 is curved, and both ends of the card paper 1 come into close contact with the feeding portion. Therefore, stable feeding is possible without affecting the state of the card paper 1.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a ticket issuing device for issuing fixed-sized ticket paper such as boarding tickets and commuter tickets, and more particularly to a mechanism for feeding fixed-sized ticket paper incorporated in the ticket issuing device.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 FIG. 3 is a drawing of a fixed-size paper sheet feeding mechanism in a ticket issuing apparatus which is a conventional technique. 1 is a fixed-size ticket paper such as a boarding ticket or a commuter pass (hereinafter referred to as a card paper), 2 is a pressing plate for pressing the card paper 1 to a feeding portion described later, and 3 is a pressing plate 2. A supporting shaft, 4 is a thrust bearing, 5 is a guide shaft for moving the pressing plate 2 vertically with respect to the card paper 1, 6 is a tension spring, and 7 is a sheet guide for guiding the movement of the card paper 1 to the feeding portion. A surface, 8 is a guide roller of the pulling spring 6, and 9 is a removable card paper cassette incorporating these parts.

A picker unit 10 moves in the direction of arrow A by a drive source (not shown) to feed one card sheet 1 out, 11 is a support roller, 12 is a support roller 11 and one card sheet 1 passes through. A gate block that forms a gap (hereinafter referred to as a gate) that can be formed, 13 is a support black that guides the card paper 1 to the gate, 14 is a clamp roller that clamps and conveys the fed card paper 1, 15 is a feed roller, Reference numeral 16 is a traveling line of the card paper 1, and 17 is a pressure roller.

The above-mentioned feeding section is composed of a picker section 10, a support roller 11, a gate block 12, a support block 13, a clamp roller 14, and a feed roller 15.

With the above configuration, the card paper 1 pressed against the picker unit 10 and the support roller 11 by the pressing plate 2 is fed one by one by the operation of the picker unit 10.

FIG. 4 shows a detailed view of the picker unit 10. The picker unit 10 includes a picker knife 18 that feeds out only one card paper 1, a picker holder 19 that supports the picker knife 18, and a rotation center stud 20 that allows fine adjustment of the orientation so that the picker holder 19 closely contacts the card paper 1. Made of The card paper 1 has a thickness of about 0.2 mm, and the picker knife 18 catches on this thickness, and only one card paper 1 is fed from the picker holder 19.

[0007]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, in the device having the above-described mechanism, the card paper 1 itself curls, or many card papers 1 are put in the card paper cassette 9, so that the friction between the sheet guide 7 and the card paper 1 and the picker section 10 may be prevented. Due to the friction between the picker knife 18 and the card paper 1, the pressing force of the pressing plate 2 is weakened, and a gap is likely to occur between the card paper 1 and the picker holder 19. Therefore, since the picker knife 18 is paid out in a very small thickness range of about 0.2 mm, the picker knife 18 does not get caught on the card paper 1 (hereinafter referred to as “idling”), and the picking-up failure occurs, or However, even if it was scratched, there was a problem that the catch was shallow and the jam came off from the picker knife 18 during feeding.

An object of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned problems and to provide a device capable of stable feeding without affecting the state of the card paper 1.

[0009]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, in the present invention, in a fixed-form paper sheet feeding mechanism for feeding the fixed-form paper sheets one by one by a picker unit provided in the feeding unit, the fixed-form paper sheet is pressed against the above-mentioned feeding unit, and the upper and lower two A pressing plate which is divided into two parts, each of which is rotatable, and an urging means for urging both ends of the pressing plate which is divided into two parts in a direction in which the fixed form paper sheet is pressed to the feeding portion. In addition, both ends of the fixed form paper sheet are brought into close contact with the picker portion.

[0010]

[Action]

 With the above configuration, by biasing the rotatable pressing plate divided into two parts by the biasing means, the fixed form paper sheet is curved, and both ends of the fixed shape paper sheet come into close contact with the feeding portion. Therefore, stable feeding is possible without being affected by the condition of the fixed-size ticket.

【Example】

 FIG. 1 is a view of a payout mechanism of a ticket issuing device as an example of the present invention, and FIGS. 2A to 2C are external views of a main part of the payout mechanism, showing a front view, a plan view, and a right side drawing, respectively.

1 is a card paper, 2a is a pressing plate that presses the upper end of the card paper 1, 2b is a pressing plate that presses the lower end of the card paper 1, 3a is a shaft that rotatably supports the pressing plate 2a, and 3b is a pressing plate 2b Rotatably supporting the shaft, 4 is a guide shaft for moving the pressing plates 2a, 2b perpendicularly to the surface of the card paper 1, 5 is a thrust bearing movable along the guide shaft 4, and 6 is a pressing plate. 2a and 2b are tension springs for applying a pressing force, 7 is a sheet guide surface for placing the card paper 1 and guiding the card paper 1 to move to the feeding portion, 8 is a guide roller for the tension spring 6, 21a, Reference numeral 21b is a torsion spring that applies a pressing force to the upper end of the pressing plate 2a and the lower end of the pressing plate 2b. It should be noted that the reference numerals 9 to 20 are the same as those of the above-described conventional technique.

The card paper 1 pressed against the support roller 11 and the picker unit 10 by the pressing plate 2 a and the pressing plate 2 b is fed out one by one by the picker unit 10. At this time, the pressing forces of the pressing plates 2a, 2b are moved to the ends by the torsion springs 21a, 21b, so that the pressing plates 2a, 2b rotate about the shafts 3a, 3b as fulcrums. Therefore, the card paper 1 can be brought into close contact with the picker unit 10 and the support roller 11 regardless of the state of the card paper 1.

That is, the tension spring 6 normally applies the pressing force evenly to the two pressing plates 2a and 2b. However, when the amount of movement of the card paper 1 on the pressing plate 2b side is small, the pressing force is Since it concentrates on the pressing plate 2b side, the pressing plate 2a side is pressed by the torsion spring 21a. When the amount of movement of the card paper 1 is the same at the upper end and the lower end, the pressing force applied to the pressing plates 2a and 2b becomes balanced.

[0015]

[Effect of device]

 As described above in detail, according to the present invention, since the pressing plates for pressing the fixed-size ticket are provided on the upper and lower sides, the curl of the fixed-size ticket and the influence between the fixed-size ticket and the sheet guide are affected. It has the effect that the card paper can be fed out stably.
