And power sources 6 and 7 for driving the print counter device 4.

FIGS. 2 and 3 show a mechanism of an embodiment constituting the print counter device 4. Printing wheel 1
1 has a ratchet wheel 13 having a predetermined tooth profile, which is rotatably attached to a fixed support shaft 12. On the same axis as the printing wheel 11, a lifting lever 14 is rotatably provided integrally with a lifting ratchet 15 that comes into contact with the ratchet wheel 13 with a light spring action. A notch 16 is formed on the side edge of the lifting lever 14 near the support shaft,
A distal end portion of an L-shaped arm 17, which will be described later, is fitted into the cutout portion 16. Also, with respect to the ratchet wheel 13,
A reverse rotation preventing pawl 18 for preventing the reverse rotation is provided, and the reverse rotation preventing pawl 18 has a slightly stronger elastic force than the ratchet 15 and constantly presses the tooth profile of the ratchet wheel 13 to keep the ratchet wheel 13 stationary. Sometimes it acts to hold that position.

The rear side of the L-shaped arm 17 penetrates through an arm holder 19 fixed at a predetermined position so that the arm holder 19 can move back and forth. A rear end portion of the arm 17 is connected to one end portion of a spring 20 interposed between a predetermined portion of the arm 17 and an arm holder 19 so that the arm 17 is always repelled in a direction to push it up. A force is applied, and the lifting lever 14 is stopped at a predetermined rotation position shown by the solid line in FIG. Further, the arm 17 can be moved by a linear distance within a specified range from a stationary predetermined position, and the raising lever 14 is rotated by 1/10, that is, by 36 degrees in response to one movement movement. Has become.

The other end of the L-shaped arm 17 is fitted and connected to a pointed notch 23 of a slide bar 22 which is rotatably set around a slide bar rotating shaft 21. Therefore, once the solenoid 24 related to the slide bar 22 is excited by the control pulse transmitted from the microcomputer in accordance with the change of the time display due to the operation of the clock function, the slide bar 22 is immediately activated by the solenoid 24. The L-shaped arm 17 is moved downward by the pointed notch 23 of the slide bar 22. As a result, the raising lever 14 is rotated by 1/10 rotation from the position shown by the solid line in FIG. 2 to the position shown by the broken line, that is, by 36 degrees, and accordingly the moving lever 14 moves integrally with the raising lever 14. Ratchet 1
5 is engaged with the tooth of the ratchet wheel 13 and
Be sure to raise only the teeth. 26 is a slide bar 22
It is a guide plate.

That is, the printing wheel 1 is operated by this series of related operations.
By rotating 1 by 1/10, the marking band 25 in which ten numbers from 0 to 9 are hung on the outer periphery of the printing wheel 11 at equal intervals is set so that the number is incremented by one. Is rotated.

Immediately after that, the pulse starts and stops and the solenoid 2
When 4 returns to the original position, the restoring force of the spring 20 returns the arm 17 to the home position. At this time, the raising lever 14
Together with the raising ratchet 15 that is integral therewith, reversely rotates by 36 degrees and returns to the initial position. in this case,
Since the raising ratchet 15 is in contact with the tooth profile with a weaker elastic force than the reverse rotation preventing claw 18 holding the printing wheel 11, it slides along the tooth profile and returns to the original position together with the raising lever 14. , The position of the printing wheel 11 does not change at all.

The clock function of the year, month, day, hour and minute described above is controlled by the integrated circuit LSI. The integrated circuit LSI
Has a perpetual calendar function and stores information corresponding to each digit, and outputs a trigger pulse from each output terminal as needed. For example, "hour" changes from "19" to "2"
When changing to "0", the trigger pulse is output to the first digit and the second digit of "hour", respectively. Upon receipt of the trigger pulse, the solenoid operates to advance the gear of the corresponding printing wheel by one pitch.

FIG. 4 shows a mechanism of another embodiment constituting the print counter device 4. The printing wheel 11 has a ratchet wheel 31 having a predetermined tooth profile, which is rotatably attached to a fixed support shaft 12. A twin-claw feed lever 34 is provided, which has pawls 32 and 33 formed on both ends thereof, which are engaged with the tooth profile of the ratchet wheel 31 while swinging alternately from both sides to rotate the ratchet wheel 31 in steps. Has been. The feed lever 34
Wheel which is the same as the tooth profile by one angular rotation of
Is surely repeated by one tooth. The feed lever 34 is rotatably set on a feed lever shaft 35, and is held in a fixed position by a flanged solenoid 36 as shown in FIG. Therefore, an operation of advancing the gear of the corresponding printing wheel by one pitch is performed by the set motion of excitation and demagnetization of the solenoid.

The clamp arm 37 is fixed to a clamp arm holder 40 which is common to each girder, and is normally held at the position shown in FIG. 4 while being rotatable about the holder shaft 38 by a coil spring 39 and a stopper 46. ing. That is, the clamp arm 37 is the ratchet wheel 3
The ratchet wheel 31 is in a state of not meshing with 1.
It keeps a position that does not interfere with the feeding movement of the. Stopper 4
6 does not move because it is integral with a fixed, stationary frame. Therefore, when the marking operation is performed, the entire frame body that retains all the functional portions shown in FIG. 4 slightly moves in the direction of arrow D. Therefore, at this time, the clamp arm holder 40 slightly moves as it is together with the clamp arm 37, and the slope thereof abuts the stopper 46.
The winding spring is pushed about 8 as a shaft to make a slight angular rotation. Therefore, the tip end of the clamp arm 37 presses the tooth-shaped portion of the ratchet wheel 31 and acts to surely hold the position of the ratchet wheel 31, thereby ensuring the marking of the marking wheel.

The above-described mechanism is installed inside the stamp body 41 for each digit constituting the counter and is configured as a multi-digit counter, and the lower end surface of the stamp body 41 is configured. Each digit of each marking band 25 constitutes a print row 42 for displaying the date and time. By the way, in a general standard format, each year, month, day, hour, and minute have two digits, and a total of ten digits are provided.

FIG. 5 shows an example of a state in which the electronic circuit, the printing counter device, the time display monitor, the power source, and the like are integrally assembled in a stamp type seal stamp, and FIG. 6 shows the zenith surface thereof. Has been done. In the figure, 43 is a year / month / day / hour / minute set button row, 44 is a battery lid, and 45 is a handle.

[0017]

As is apparent from the above description, according to the present invention, if the time is set in advance before use, the display time of the monitor and the display of the counter operate in perfect synchronization. Therefore, it is possible to automatically and surely specify the time, date, and time when the document is accepted or viewed, and the seal is displayed and recorded.
