Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it possible to easily open any page at will by providing a reversing fold on a long sheet of journal paper using a pair of rollers, on each outer periphery of which a groove and a projection are alternately provided, and housing the paper while folding it. CONSTITUTION:One projection 3 and one groove 2 are provided on the outer periphery of a roller 1. Then, the distance between the projection 3 and the groove 2 is given by pir using the radius r of the roller 1, so that a medium 4 is provided with a reversing fold at every pir interval. Namely, the medium 4 is put between the rollers 1, 1', and folded at the position where the groove 2 and the projection 3' of the rollers 1, 1' engage with each other, in an alternately reversed state as shown by a fold 5, 5', and sequentially stored into a housing case 6.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a medium storage system, and more particularly to a journal storage system for folding and storing long journal sheets.

b. Conventional technology and problems With terminals, such as PO8 terminals, a receipt is issued to the customer at the point of sale, and when the customer is waiting for the sales amount, the same content is printed on a sheet prepared on a roll paper. It has been done to wind it up while doing so. The rolled paper (called a journal) is removed from the terminal when the roll ends or at the end of the day, and the printed information inside the rolled paper is examined as necessary. Ta. At this time, since the paper is a roll, it is necessary to unravel it in order to examine the printed information that has been rolled up toward the back, and there is a drawback that it is not possible to immediately open the predetermined printing position.

C9 OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION The purpose of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks, and to provide a paper storage system that allows a desired printing section at the paper position to be easily opened at any time.

49 Structure of the Invention The present invention achieves the above object by providing alternately depressions and protrusions parallel to the rotation axis on the outer peripheral surface of the medium storage, and rotating the protrusions and depressions while engaging with each other. , the medium sandwiched between the rows 2 is discharged with an inverted crease, and the medium is folded 9 times along the folds and stored.

01 Embodiment of the Invention The present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the drawings below.0M1 is a three-dimensional perspective view of the row 2 of an embodiment of the present invention, in which 1 is a roller, 2 is a groove, 3 is a protrusion, and r is a It is the radius.

In one embodiment, protrusion 3 and #$2 are outside of row 21. One is provided on each circumference to be repaired on the circumference.

At this time, depending on the radius r of the roller l, the protrusions 3 and 1112
The distance between the two ends is πr, and the medium (see FIG. 2) is given a crease that reverses every distance πr.

Figure 312 is an a-light diagram when the rollers in Figure Jl1 are combined to light the media, and in the figure, 4ti media, 5 and 5.
The 0 medium 4, which has a horizontal crease, is sandwiched between rollers 1 and 1', creases are made at positions where it engages with #I2 of rows 21 and 1', and projections 3', and then the media 4 is discharged. In other words, since the rollers 1 and 1' are rotated in the directions of arrows R and R', for example, by a rotation mechanism (not shown), the media is ejected with creases in an alternately reversed state as shown in the fold line 5.5'. It is something that will be done.

FIG. 3 is a storage diagram of the medium, and in the figure, 6 is a storage case. The medium 4 is folded 9 by the grooves 2 and the protrusions 3' or the protrusions 3 and the grooves 2' of the rollers 1 and 1' alternately engaging with each other, and is sequentially stored in the storage case 6.

In this embodiment, the protrusions and the protrusions are placed π on the outer circumference of the roller with radius r.
One is provided at each position of r, but of course this is not limited to this, and in other words, if the row 2 radius is large and the page of the medium (from one fold to the next fold) is made small. When doing so, it is a good idea to provide two or more protrusions (of course, the number of protrusions is commensurate with the number of protrusions).

10 Effects of the Invention By using the roller of the present invention, it is possible to create creases that can be easily reversed on a long medium, and the arrangement of the grooves and protrusions allows the medium to be folded.

This has the effect of making one page of the body any size.

Moreover, by creating creases, it is possible to immediately open up any page part of the stored medium, and the effect of finding and examining a desired printed page without spending time and effort is remarkable.

[Brief explanation of drawings]

Figure 1 is a three-dimensional perspective view of the roller, Figure 2 is an explanatory diagram of its operation, and Figure 3 is a diagram of the stored state.
' is a groove, 3 and 3' are projections, 4 is a medium, 5.5' is a fold, and 6 is a storage case.

Claims (1)

[Claims] There is a roller (1) having two parallel axes as rotation axes and rotating at a falling position, and the roller has depressions and protrusions parallel to the rotation axis alternately on the outer circumferential surface of the roller. A medium storage method characterized in that the medium is provided and rotated while engaging the protrusion and the depression, and the medium sandwiched between the rows 2 is discharged with an inverted crease.
