Description of the Related Art In a general continuous sheet processing apparatus of this type, when the continuous sheet is set in a transfer device, the slitter device is visually positioned so that the slitter device cuts the sheet at a desired position. Is being done. By the way, in the conventional continuous paper processing device, no device for easily performing the visual positioning of the slitter device is made.

Therefore, conventionally, it is difficult to position the slitter device described above, and in particular, when a cover is provided to cover the transport device and the slitter device, a transport device that sets continuous paper is provided. It is difficult to visually position the slitter device with respect to the continuous paper because the vicinity of the slitter device that aligns with the perforation, which is the cutting position, is darkened. Therefore, conventionally, it is necessary to position the slitter device in a rough state, and then operate the continuous paper processing device to check the cutting position by the slitter device and adjust it so that the cutting position is appropriate. It is troublesome and complicated, and there is an inconvenience that a large amount of continuous paper is wasted.

An object of the present invention is to provide a continuous paper processing device that eliminates such inconvenience.

First operable state of only the fine movement operation for transporting the continuous paper with the driven lamp and the continuous paper processing device being stopped or the operation of the continuous paper processing device being slower than the normal processing operation. And a drive source of the transfer device, which is controlled in response to a switch signal between two operable states, a second operable state that is operable by the fine movement operation and an operation operation for performing a normal processing operation, and the cover. When the drive source is in the open state, the drive source in the operating state
And a control unit for controlling the lamp to be in a lighting state.

Action When the cover is opened to set the continuous paper on the transfer device, the lamp provided in the space covered by the cover lights or maintains the lighting state. And the vicinity of the slitter device for performing the alignment becomes brighter, and the slitter device can be easily positioned, while operating the drive source of the transfer device to perform the normal processing operation of the continuous sheet processing device. It will be in a state where you can not. Then, when the cover is closed after setting the continuous paper, the drive source becomes operable. At this time, the lamp in the lit state may be extinguished or may be kept lit. If the cover is opened while the drive source is operating, the operation is stopped.

Embodiment Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Here, FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the external appearance of the continuous paper processing device, FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the slitter device portion, and FIG. 3 is a functional view showing the relationship among switches, drive motors, lamps, and control units. 4 is a flow chart showing the control operation of the control unit.

As shown in FIG. 1, the continuous sheet processing apparatus 1 is mounted in a state where a continuous sheet 2 having a marginal portion 2b having a perforation 2a for cutting on both sides in the width direction is provided in a folded state. And a guide roll 5 for guiding the continuous paper 2 to a tractor device 4 as a transfer device, and a brush roll 6 provided with a brush following the guide roll 5.
have. And the above-mentioned placing part 3 and the guide roll 5
Also, a plate-shaped cover 7 that covers the brush rolls 6 in the lateral direction is provided so as to be openable and closable.

Further, following the tractor device 4, there is provided a slitter device 8 for cutting and removing the marginal portion 2b of the continuous paper 2 from the perforation 2a for cutting. The tractor device 4 and the slitter device 8 are provided in pairs on the left and right sides, and their positions can be adjusted in the width direction of the continuous paper 2. Further, a cover 9 having an L-shaped overall shape that covers the tractor device 4 and the slitter device 8 from above is provided so as to be openable and closable. When the cover 9 is closed, its tip is joined to the upper end of the cover 7 in the closed state.
Therefore, when both covers 7 and 9 are closed, the space from the mounting portion 3 to the slitter device 8 is closed. As can be seen in FIG. 2, the slitter device 8 has a lamp 11 arranged in a cover body 10 whose bottom surface is open. This lamp 11 is a perforation 2a for cutting continuous paper 2.
And the irradiation range and brightness sufficient to confirm the position of the upper blade 12 of the slitter device 8. Then, the above-mentioned confirmation can be easily performed by visually observing through the long hole 20.

Although not shown, the continuous paper processing device 1 includes a slitter device 8 and a detacher device that cuts the continuous paper 2 into unit papers, and a stacker device that sequentially stacks the unit papers. A margin processing device that winds up the portion 2b is provided.

In the continuous sheet processing apparatus 1, as is apparent from FIG. 3, the drive motor 13 which is the drive source of the tractor device 4 is slower than usual as a preparation step of the processing operation of the continuous sheet processing apparatus 1, for example, at the time of starting. The fine movement switch 15 that sends a switch signal to the control unit 14 such as a CPU to perform the fine movement operation for transporting the continuous paper 2 in the operation, and the switch signal to perform the operation operation for performing the normal processing operation are described above. Control unit 14
There are provided an operation switch 16 for sending to the control unit 14 and a stop switch 17 for sending a switch signal for stopping the drive motor 13 to the control unit 14. When the cover 9 is in the open state, it is turned on to turn on the lamp 11, and while the cover 14 is in the closed state, it is turned on while the ON signal which is a cover open state detection signal is sent to the control unit 14. The micro switch that turns off the lamp 11 and sends an off signal, which is a cover closed state detection signal, to the control unit 14.
18 are provided.

The control unit 14 enables the drive motor 13 when the cover 9 is closed and the drive motor when the cover 9 is open when the operation switch 16 is in the ON state.
When 13 is inoperable, and the fine movement switch 15 is in the ON state, the drive motor 13 is finely moved as long as the ON state continues regardless of the open / closed state of the cover, and when the stop switch 17 is in the ON state. Is configured to control the drive motor 13 to be inoperable regardless of the opened / closed state of the cover.

Next, the operation of the embodiment configured as described above will be described.

When the cover 9 is opened, the micro switch 18 is turned on, the lamp 11 lights up, and the lower part of the slitter device 8 becomes bright. The work of positioning the upper blade 12 of 8 can be easily performed.

On the other hand, in the control unit 14, as shown in FIG. 4, it is determined whether or not the fine movement switch 15 is in the ON state (step 101). If the fine movement switch 15 is in the ON state, the drive motor 13 is maintained only while the ON state continues. To make a fine movement (step 102). Due to this fine movement, the continuous paper 2 is transferred by the tractor device 4 at a slow speed, and it is possible to confirm whether or not the positioning of the slitter device 8 is accurate with the cover 9 open.

When it is determined in step 101 that the fine movement switch 15 is in the off state, or when the fine movement of the drive motor 13 ends with the fine movement switch 15 in the off state, the open / close state of the cover 9 is determined. (Step 103),
If it is in the open state, the process returns to step 101, while if it is in the closed state, it is determined whether the operation switch 16 is in the on state (step 104). If the operation switch 16 is in the off state, the process returns to step 101. If the operation switch 16 is in the on state, the process proceeds to step 105, the drive motor 13 is operated to perform the normal processing operation, and the tractor device 4 continuously operates. The sheet 2 is transported at a normal speed, the marginal portion 2b is cut and removed by the slitter device 8, the unit paper is cut by the detacher device, and the stacker device is sequentially stacked. Then, when the cover 9 is opened during the operation of the drive motor 13 (step 106) or the stop switch is turned on (step 107), the drive motor 13 is stopped (steps 108, 109), the processing operation is terminated, and the process proceeds to step 101. Return.

By repeating the above operation, the desired processing operation can be performed while the continuous paper 2 is being transported.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and for example, the micro switch 18 which detects the open / closed state of the cover 9 and sends a detection signal to the control unit 14 also serves as the on / off switch of the lamp 11. However, you may make this separately. Further, the fine movement switch 15 does not necessarily have to be provided, and the drive motor 13 may not perform the fine movement operation.
Further, the position where the lamp 11 is provided is not limited to the position inside the cover body 10 of the slitter device 8. Further, the lamp 11 may be configured to maintain a lighting state even when the cover 9 is closed. Furthermore, it goes without saying that the shape of the cover 9 is not limited to the L shape. Furthermore, the slitter device 8 may include not only a pair of left and right but also an intermediate slitter.

Effect As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, the lamp is lit when the cover is opened, and the drive motor is controlled not to operate so that the cover is opened and the lamp is lit continuously. Since the slitter device can be positioned with respect to the paper, this positioning work can be performed accurately and easily, and it is extremely safe because the device will not operate even if the operation switch is accidentally turned on during this work. Has the effect.
