Definitions

  • This invention relates to ticket and like printing machines adapted to effect a printing operation on each of a series of discrete printing areas arranged in serial strip form, for example, a perforated ticket strip.
  • the invention is more particularly concerned with improved electronic arrangements for controlling the feed movement of the strip printing material so as to ensure accurate registration and positioning of the printed image within each discrete printing area to which it is applied.
  • a ticket or like printing machine in accordance with the invention comprises a rotatable drum carrying the printing image and a co-operating counterpressure men.- ber, intermittently operable feeding means for moving the strip-form element forwardly through the printing zone between said drum and said counterpressure member and electrically operated control means for controlling the strip feed movement imparted by said feeding means, said control means including photo-electric means for sensing a marking on said strip form element identifying each discrete printing area and providing an output signal which is arranged to cause cessation of the strip feed movement and further contact means controlled by said printing drum and arranged to cause re-commencement of the strip feedmovement.

  • FIGS. 1 and 2 which is a ticket printing machine for applying a chosen printed image to each of a series of tickets which, at the time of printing, are in the form of a continuous strip transversely perforated at intervals for subsequent separation into individual tickets.
  • the drawing 10 indicates a printing member in the form of a drum secured to a shaft 11 which is journalled in fixed position bearings, not shown, immediately above a counter-pressure roller 12 which is preferably journallcd in bearings, also not shown, which can be adjusted in position towards and away from the printing drum It) in order to effect accurate control of the printing pressure in already well known manner.
  • the drum 10 has the usual form ineluding a series of axially directed and circumferentially operating speed as by means of a drive motor indicated schematically at 15 and coupled to the shaft 11 through suitable gear box or other speed reducing means indicated schematically at 16.
  • the strip form ticket material shown at 17, with its transverse rows of perforations 17a, is fed in an intermittent manner through the printing zone between the drum 1% and the counterpressure roller 12 over a horizontal feed table 18.
  • Means for feeding the ticket strip 17 comprise a horizontal friction feed roller 29 suitably journalled in machine frame parts, not shown, so that its uppermost peripheral region lies substantially in the same plane as the upper surface of the feed table 18.

  • the lever arm 22 is made integral with a pair of dependent parallel arms 26 between the lower ends of which is disposed a transverse cross pin 27 forming a pivotal connection with a boss 28 at one end of a rod 29 which is rigidly secured at its opposite end to the reciprocating plunger 3!) of an electromagnetic solenoid 31 held in fixed position on the machine framework by means not shown.
  • the solenoid may include adjustable bias spring means 32 for controlling its plunger while a tension spring 33 connected between one of the dependent arms 26 and a fixed position pin 34 operates to rotate the lever arm system 22, 23, 26 whereby the pressure applying roller 21 is normally urged downwardly towards the feed roller 23 so as to press the ticket strip 17, positioned between the two rollers, into contact with the continuously driven feed roller and thereby to cause forward movement of the ticket strip towards the drum 10.
  • the lever system is rocked against the action of the spring 33 to separate the roller 21 from the roller 20 whereby no forward movement is then imparted to the ticket strip.
  • the means for controlling the energisation of the solenoid 31 include photoelectric sensing means indicated generally at 36 and which comprise a U-shaped support frame 37 having two parallel arms 38 and 39 disposed respectively above and below the feed table 18.
  • the junction limb 40 between the arms is conveniently slotted as shown at 41 to accommodate the thickness of the table plate 18 while a clamping screw 42 permits the photoelectric sensing means 36 as a whole to be adjusted in the direction of feed movement of the ticket strip 17 and then secured at the desired location.
  • a lamp housing 43 On the upper side of the lower arm 39 is mounted a lamp housing 43 containing a light source in the form of a small electric lamp 44 and, if desired, associated optical means such as a condenser lens, while on the underside of the upper arm 38 and in axial alignment with the lamp housing 43 is secured a housing 45 whose lower end wall is in the form of a mask plate provided with a narrow rectangular slot 46 having its length dimension parallel with the transverse direction of the ticket strip.
  • photo-sensitive means 47 Within the housing 45 is located photo-sensitive means 47, for instance, a photo-cell or similar device such as a photo-transistor.
  • the table plate 18 is provided with an elongated slot 48 disposed to lie parallel with the longitudinal or feed direction of the ticket strip 17 and in alignment with the common axes of the two 3 housings '43, 45 in order to allow the passage of light from the lamp 44 through the perforations 17a of the ticket strip to the photo-sensitive means 47.
  • the solenoid control means include a came disc 50 secured on the shaft 11 of the printing drum and having a projection arranged, once in each revolution of the drum 10, to separate a switch contact on a switch blade 51 from a stationary contact 52 upon which it normally rests.
  • the contacts 51, 52 are both mounted, in suitable insulated manner upon a plate 53 which is capable'of FIG. 3 where the photoelectric sensing means 36 and I the associated amplifier 56 are arranged, as by the inmeans .36.;
  • This output 'pulse is applied to one winding a limited amount of angular adjustment movement about the axis of the shaft 11 to permit precise control' of the particular position in each revolution of the drum ,at which switch operation takes place.
  • Clamping screws, as shown at 54 permit securing of the switch plate in its chosen position.
  • the output from; the photo cell 47 is applied to the input terminals ofan amplifier 56 whose output terminals are connected to the solenoid through the normally-closed contacts 51, 52 controlled by the cam' disc 50 on the shaft 11.
  • the cam causes opening of the contacts 51, 52 with consequent de-energisation of the solenoid 31.
  • the solenoid is accordingly released to cause the roller '21. again to be applied to the ticket material 17, to. recommence' by movement of the sensing means 36 bodily along the feed table 18.
  • the forward feed movement of the ticket strip continues regardless of whether the type characters 14 on the drum 10 themselves effect any feed motion'of the ticket strip and in consequence it is' unnecessary to provide the conventional arcuate or other feed means on theprinting drum as used hitherto in order to ensure continued feed movement. of thestrip by an amount substantially equal to that of each ticket.
  • the conventional positioning means tolocate the stripaccurately after each feed movement are also rendered unnecessary.
  • the drum controlled contacts 51, 52 may be are of a double-wound relay whose other winding is included in a lock-in circuit through contacts 61 of the same relay.
  • This lock-in .circuit includes the contacts 51, 52 controlled by the drum 10, such contacts being normally closed and opened by the cam 50 at the appropriate instant-in each operation cycle. Further contacts 62 of the relay control energisation of the sole- .noid 31. With 'thisarrangement, the arrival of the perforations 17a at the sensing system causes momentary energisation of the relay Why the amplifier 56; the relay locks-in and closes contacts 62 to energise the sole noid 31. At the appropriate instant drum contacts 51, 52 open the'lock-in circuit to release the relay 60 whereupon contacts 62' also'open to de-energise, the solenoid and allow renewed feed movement of the strip 17.
  • the strip feed arrangements may be reversed so that the solenoid 31 is energisedin order to hold the pressure applying roller 21 in contact with the ticket material 17 and the underlying feed roller 20, a'cessation of the ticket drive being effected by de-energising such solenoid thereby allowing separation of 'the rollers 20, 21 by biasing spring means.
  • FIG. 4 Another alternative arrangement is illustrated in FIG. 4.
  • This modification is particularly suitable for dealing with the problemof possible overshoot of the ticket material 17, due to inertia, beyond each'position where its perforations 17a are in alignment with the opticalaxis V p
  • a pulse form output derived from the photo-cell 47 at each passage of the perforations 17a through the sensing means 36 is applied as a trigger pulse to one trigger input terminal of a bistable trigger circuit 64, for instance, a conventional Eccles-Jordan circuit or an equivalent transistor circuit.
  • the opposite or reset trigger terminal of such circuit is arranged tobe provided with short pulses derived from the momentary closure of the contacts 51, 52 controlled by the drum 10.
  • One of'the two alternative trigger circuit' outputs that which is energised when the circuit is set, is supplied to energise the solenoid 31 either directly or through suitable relay means,
  • the pulse developed in the photo-sensing system by the passage of a row of perforations between the light source and photo-cell cause generation of a pulse which sets the trigger circuit to the state at which its output energizes the solenoid 31 thereby feed movement of the strip is suspended until the following pulse provided at the drum contacts serves to reset the trigger circuit to its opforations as the identifying mark to be sensed by the photo-sensing unit
  • the photo-sensing means maybe ar ranged to short-circiut the solenoid 31 instead of open- I ing its energisation circuit or to apply a blocking bias to .the amplifier 56.
