Definitions
- Tachograph with a cuboid housing and with a printing device
- the invention relates to a tachograph with a parallelepiped-shaped housing and with a printing device, which has a thermal print head and a carrier which can be moved out of the front of the tachograph housing for reloading a tape roll forming the print material supply, and a non-positive connection with the thermal print head, at least during printing, with the print material being interposed has standing, driven by a drive transport roller, the thermal print head in the housing of the tachograph and the transport roller and the drive are arranged in the carrier.
- Tachographs which are not equipped for the use of chart disks as recording media, but rather contain appropriately trained mass storage devices for storing the determined journey and working time data, require suitable printing devices for the documentation in the form of a visually readable document, which must be arranged within the tachograph , since there is generally no space in a cab of a commercial vehicle for the installation of an independent printer corresponding to the tachograph.
- the structural concept mentioned at the beginning, described in DE-U 299 20 901.6, has the advantage of more economical use of space than would be possible using commercially available printing units. This concept also eliminates the need to thread the beginning of the ribbon between the thermal print head and the transport roller, as well as precautions to clear paper jams. Furthermore, the thermal print head can be fixed in position within the housing of the tachograph, so that direct contact with dirt and moisture is largely avoided even when the carrier is moved out of the tachograph.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide a stable arrangement of a thermal printhead within the housing of a tachograph which meets the conditions mentioned and which takes up little space and can be realized with components which are as simple and simple to assemble as possible.
- the invention provides that a bearing bridge is provided for the mounting of the thermal print head which can be pivoted against the action of at least one spring, and that the bearing bridge is fastened to a cover plate of the housing of the tachograph.
- a preferred embodiment is characterized in that a holder attached to the cover plate is provided for attaching the bearing bridge to the cover plate.
- the preferred exemplary embodiment is distinguished in particular by the fact that the holder is plate-shaped, that tabs provided with through bores are formed on the legs of the bearing bridge, and that pedestals assigned to the tabs and prepared for screw connections are formed on them.
- the holder and the cover plate are seamlessly connected to one another at several points using sheet metal forming technology and also that the holder has a recess corresponding to the bearing bridge and that the bearing bridge is fastened to the holder in such a way that the bearing bridge is in the recess of the Holder engages and point the legs of the bearing bracket away from the cover plate.
- the solution according to the invention has the advantage that the thermal print head can only be arranged on the cover plate of the housing and thus, since no longitudinal or transverse trains are required for attaching the thermal print head within the housing, there is an optimal use of the available installation space.
- the invention enables a secure and stable attachment of the thermal printhead, particularly with a view to the fact that the mounting or attachment of the thermal printhead not only has to support the bearing force on the transport roller but also has to absorb force components directed transversely to the direction of action of the bearing force when the carrier is moved.
- the holder of the bearing bridge serves as a socket, in such a way that when the bearing bridge is fastened, it is clamped to the cover part of the housing and is locked in the direction of movement of the carrier. It should also be emphasized that, due to the fact that the holder is fastened to the cover part of the housing over the largest possible area, it provides a stiffening which is expedient for the attachment of the thermal print head, and that the thermal print head can be replaced in a simple manner.
- Sheet metal connection method is known, a seamless, push button-like connection by material forming. This connection technology undoubtedly meets the requirements for tightness and flatness of the cover part on the outside.
