Definitions

  • the invention relates to a punch with a cutting device and a method for using a cutting device as described in claims 1 and 17.
  • a stamp with a box opener is already known, in which a blade with a sliding mechanism is arranged centrally.
  • the blade and the actuating push rod are guided and connected to each other, so that when the push rod is pushed towards the outside of the housing, the blade is pushed out of the housing.
  • the actuating element, or push rod is arranged parallel to the broad side of the blade and moves in the same direction as the blade's sliding direction.
  • a disadvantage of this design is that such a cutting mechanism can only be used to a very limited extent with a few types of stamps without significantly increasing the stamp's size and thus incurring higher material requirements, higher costs, greater environmental impact, and visual or tactile disadvantages.
  • the central arrangement of the blade and push rod not only requires a relatively large amount of space but also makes cutting very awkward.
  • the edges of the stamp's top surface are particularly bothersome, as they restrict cutting to a relatively steep angle between the blade and the object being cut.
  • Another disadvantage is that the force of the return spring acts at an angle on the extended blade, and with this solution, tilting is possible.
  • a retractable blade is removable.
  • the mechanism is similar to that in CN 214727594 U
  • the blade is also recessed in the stamp in its starting position and can be moved out of the housing into the operating position for cutting letters and the like. The blade is pushed out in a straight line. Moving the actuating element and the associated blade.
  • a disadvantage here is that the cutting device or the blade must be manually retracted into the housing by resetting the actuating element, which poses safety risks.
  • such a solution is limited to use in a die with a narrow broad side or in a die with a wider broad side, as in the case of...
  • This device is designed with a built-in knife or blade on the side.
  • the mechanism is similar to a folding knife: the blade is grasped from the side and folded towards the top of the housing, locking into place when extended.
  • a lever also located on the top, releases the blade, allowing it to be manually folded back into the housing.
  • the disadvantages include the risk of injury from the blade's rigid locking mechanism when activated or extended. Even if the cutting edge of the blade is... Because the blade is relatively blunt, the risk of injury remains, especially for children. Furthermore, since safety regulations prohibit a sharp edge, its use is limited. According to the manufacturer, the blade is intended for opening envelopes and packages. Additional drawbacks include a large recess on the side of the stamp housing for gripping the handle. This significantly reduces the types of stamps where such a design is feasible without enlarging the housing or adding protrusions, which would result in increased material consumption, higher costs, greater environmental impact, and compromised product form or handling.
  • the object of the invention is to create a punch with a cutting device and a method for cutting in which, on the one hand, the aforementioned disadvantages are avoided and, on the other hand, ease of use is increased.
  • the object of the invention is solved by a punch with a cutting device in which the actuating means and the cutting device are arranged at opposite corner areas and are connected to each other via a pivoting mechanism.
  • the advantage here is that cutting comfort for the user is significantly increased, especially in the preferred cutting position ( Fig. 1c
  • the opposing arrangement allows even users with small hands to easily operate the cutting device or the operating button on larger stamp models. Furthermore, this arrangement improves the user's grip. Additional advantages include the versatile application of the cutting device to a wide variety of stamp types and designs, as this arrangement of the cutting device and its operation can be integrated relatively compactly into the upper part of the stamp. Sufficient space remains for the sometimes complex components of the paint application device.
  • the pivoting mechanism consists of at least one pivoting lever, to which the cutting device is attached, and the actuating element is also advantageous, as this simplifies assembly.
  • the pivoting mechanism being at least two-part, the pivoting lever can be installed in the die, and subsequently the actuating element or the external operating button can be attached or inserted. This allows for a one-piece upper part, thus simplifying assembly due to fewer components.
  • a design where the cutting device is rigidly attached to the pivot lever is also advantageous. This reduces the risk of injury to the user and prevents unwanted wobbling during cutting. It is beneficial if the cutting device, when attached to the pivot lever, has little or no play, as this ensures precise cutting and blade guidance.
  • the cutting device is preferably detachably connected to the pivot lever, but can also be permanently fixed, for example, molded or glued in place.
  • a design in which the pivot lever has an opening for receiving the actuating element advantageously allows for simple assembly of the actuating element by insertion into the opening.
  • a locking device is provided for securing the actuating element.
  • the actuating element can be connected to the pivot lever inside the upper part from the outside.
  • a design in which the actuating element or pivot lever has an extension on which a locking element for connecting the actuating element to the pivot lever is arranged is also advantageous, as this facilitates simple assembly.
  • the pivot lever can be inserted into the piston housing and the actuating element with the extension inserted from the outside, or an extension arranged on the pivot lever can be pushed outwards from inside the piston housing or inwards from the outside, and the actuating element attached to it. can be attached.
  • the arrangement of the locking element allows for assembly without complex tools.
  • the pivot lever has a recess that is connected to the opening of the pivot lever to form a detent edge for the detent element of the actuating device, since this allows for a simple detent connection and easy assembly of the pivot mechanism.
  • the detent connection is designed to be releasable.
  • An advantageous design also includes a pivoting mechanism, particularly the pivoting lever, with a bearing axis for support in the upper part, arranged between the actuating means and the cutting device.
  • the bearing axis is preferably located in the rear half of the pivoting mechanism, i.e., the half in which the actuating means is located. This advantageously achieves that by pushing the actuating means towards the underside of the punch, the cutting device pivots towards the top of the punch. The pivoting movement of the cutting device thus occurs essentially in the opposite direction to the pivoting movement of the actuating means, thereby reducing the risk of injury.
  • a further advantage is that by varying the arrangement of the bearing axis, the force required to activate or actuate the actuating means on the one hand and the pivoting movement of the cutting device on the other can be changed or precisely adjusted during manufacturing.
  • a bearing element for attaching and supporting the pivot lever to the upper part. This results in improved guidance of the pivoting movement and reduced wear of the pivoting mechanism. If one of the bearing elements is detachably arranged, further advantages arise in terms of simplified assembly. This allows the pivot lever to be installed in a one-piece upper part, since preferably one part of the bearing is formed on the upper part and the second part is formed by the bearing element. The pivot lever is then simply inserted into the first part in the upper part, and subsequently the bearing element, which preferably has detent elements, is inserted into the upper part and locked into place.
  • an advantageous design includes a retaining or return element, particularly a return spring, which holds the cutting device or pivoting lever in its initial position opposite to the actuation position. This ensures automatic return of the cutting device to the upper part, thus preventing the risk of injury to the user.
  • the cutting device In its initial position, the cutting device is preferably located inside the housing of the punch. The cutting device does not protrude beyond the outer surface of the punch. Therefore, the cutting device is only active when the user deliberately moves it into the actuation position and automatically pivots back into its initial position when the actuation is released.
  • the holding or restoring element for the pivot lever is attached to the upper part or an insertion element, since this ensures that the holding or restoring element is attached to a part or element that is fixed in position and is thus always held in relation to it.
  • the holding or restoring element is designed as a tension element or tension spring, but it can equally well be designed as a compressive element or compression spring.
  • a further advantage is a design in which the pivot lever has a fastening means for attaching the holding or return element, which is preferably arranged on the underside of the pivot lever. This allows for simpler assembly, for example by using a tension spring as a return spring.
  • the stamp is also advantageous to design the stamp as a roller stamp, self-inking stamp, flash stamp, or pre-ink stamp, wherein the stamp, in particular its upper part, preferably has a substantially rectangular, square, oval, or round cross-sectional shape.
  • stamp in particular its upper part, preferably has a substantially rectangular, square, oval, or round cross-sectional shape.
  • Another advantageous design involves arranging a roller or cylinder on the insertion element for applying ink, particularly in the form of letters, symbols, or images.
  • This design with the ink dispensing device as a cylinder, prevents any moving parts from pivoting into the interior of the stamp, thus leaving more space for the cutting device.
  • the ratio of the load arm to the force arm of the pivoting mechanism and/or the length and angle of the return spring can be chosen more freely, allowing for better adjustment and metering of the pivoting angle of the cutting device and the force required to activate the actuating device.
  • a further advantage is a design in which a cap can be attached to the top to cover the paint application device, as this allows the paint application device to be covered with the cap during the cutting process and prevents the user from coming into contact with the paint of the paint application device while cutting.
  • the frame structure of the upper part's housing is formed in one piece, as this makes the stamp housing and cutting mechanism more robust and durable.
  • further elements or parts can be arranged on the upper part's housing, such as a viewing window displaying the impression image, etc.
  • parts or surfaces can be removable, such as removable side panels, which allow for better access during assembly.
  • the housing's frame structure itself is formed in one piece, i.e., not by, for example, two interlocking half-shells.
  • the object of the invention is also solved by a method for using a cutting device of a punch, in which, upon activation of the actuating means this is pivoted against the direction of movement of the cutting device, whereby the actuating means is pivoted towards the closure cap or paint application device, wherein, when the actuating means is deactivated, it is returned to the starting position, in which the cutting device is arranged inside the upper part, via a holding or resetting means.
  • the advantage of this is that, in particular, the opposing pivoting of the cutting device and the actuating means, and the resetting of the cutting device, avoids the risk of injury to the user and achieves simple and comfortable use and handling.

  • the projection 51 of the actuating element 4 is inserted into the opening 45, with the projection 51 being pushed up to the adjacent recess 49, so that the detent projection or the detent element 52 engages on the detent edge 50 and thus connects the actuating element 4 to the pivot lever 20.
  • the actuating element 4 is connected to the pivot lever 20 in another way, for example by gluing, in which case the recess 49 and The detent element 52 can be omitted.
  • the extension 51 is formed not on the actuating means 4 but on the pivot lever 20.
  • the actuating means 4 is formed in particular by the actuating button, whereby, even in such a solution, detent elements are preferably formed on the actuating button and on the extension 51, or the connection of the actuating means 4 to the pivot lever 20 can be realized by bonding.
  • the bearing axis 21 arranged on the pivot lever 20 is, as better seen from Fig. 7
  • the bearing axis 21 is preferably arranged in the rear half of the pivoting mechanism 7, particularly in the area between the center of the pivoting mechanism 7 and the end region of the actuating means 4 or the actuating surface for the user.
  • the bearing axis 21 is formed at an angle of essentially 90° to the longitudinal direction of the pivot lever 20 and preferably has a round cross-sectional shape.
  • Bearing means 26a, 26b are provided to receive projections 53 of the bearing axis 21.
  • one of the bearing means 26a is designed as a bearing shell or partial shell, in particular a half shell, and is arranged in the upper part 3 of the punch 1 ( Fig.
  • this fixing element 54 has, in particular, a projection.
  • both bearing elements 26a, 26b in the punch 1 or to design both to be removable it is possible to form a bearing shell in the upper part 3 of the punch 1, which largely (except for an insertion opening) or completely encompasses the projections 53 of the bearing axis 21.
  • the cutting device 2, arranged in the front region of the pivoting mechanism 7 or pivoting lever 20, is preferably detachably connected to the pivoting lever 20.
  • the pivoting lever 20 preferably has a recess 55 into which the cutting device 2 can be inserted or pushed, and further a locking element 56 which engages with or is connected to a locking receptacle 57 on the cutting device 2, in particular a recess.
  • the locking element 56 preferably has a movable element 58 with a projection 59 ( Fig. 2b ) on.
  • guide or limiting means 60 can be arranged in the recess 55. This allows a fixed arrangement of the cutting device 2 in the pivot lever 20 to be achieved, so that it is fixed in its position in the pivot lever 20.
  • the movable element 58 holds the cutting device 2, particularly at the detent receptacle 57, via the projection 59. This secures the cutting device 2 against falling out in the direction opposite to its insertion into the pivot lever 20.
  • the cutting device 2 can preferably be changed by pushing the projection 59 out of the detent receptacle 57.
  • the recess 55 is located on the upper surface 47 in the front region of the pivot lever 20. However, it can also be located directly in the end region 43 on the face of the pivot lever 20.

When bonding, the locking device 56, the locking receptacle 57, the movable element 58 including projection 59 and guide or limiting device 60 can also be omitted.
  • the pivot lever 20 can be curved along its longitudinal axis. It can also be straight, have multiple folded edges, or be arc-shaped. Preferably, however, the pivot lever 20 has a contact surface 41a, which serves in particular as a contact surface 41a inside the punch 1. Because the contact surface 41a rests against the inside of the upper part 3 of the punch 1, the pivoting movement is limited when the actuating means 4 is activated or operated. Providing the contact surface 41a not only limits the maximum extension of the cutting device 2, but also achieves greater stability, especially when cutting an object 19 (as in Fig. 1c (shown), because the user pressing down here results in an increased force acting on the pivoting mechanism 7 or pivot lever 20.
  • the fastening element 24 for the holding or resetting element 22 is preferably attached in the front area on the underside 48 of the pivoting mechanism 7 or pivot lever 20.
  • the fastening element 24 can also be attached in other areas of the pivot lever 20, for example on the side surfaces 46 or the top surface 47.
  • the holding or resetting element 22 is designed as a spring element, in particular a tension spring.
  • the holding or resetting element 22 can also be designed as a compression spring and, for example, be arranged or attached to the top surface 47 of the pivot lever 20.
  • the holding or restoring means 22 can, for example, be configured as an upwardly directed tension spring or a compression spring acting from below.
  • Fig. 8 To better illustrate the preferred arrangement and design of the cutting device 2, a rendering of a cutting device 2 installed in the upper part of the punch 1 is shown, in particular partial surfaces of the upper part 3 are shown transparently and the cutting device 2 is shown in its initial or inactive position, in which the cutting device 2 is arranged completely recessed in the housing of the punch 1.
  • the punch 1 with cutting device 2 functions in such a way that by sliding the actuating element 4 from its rest position, according to Figure 1a , into its activation position, according to Fig. 1c
  • the pivot lever 20 is pivoted via the bearing axis 21, so that the cutting device 2 attached to the pivot lever 20 is pivoted outwards from the upper part 3. If the cutting device 2 is no longer needed, the actuating element 4 can be released, so that, due to the holding or return element 22, the cutting device 2 is drawn into the interior of the upper part 3, whereby, due to the bearing axis 21, the actuating element 4 is pivoted into its rest position.
  • stamps 1 with activated cutting device 2 or actuated actuating means 4 are shown.
  • the cutting device 2 according to the invention can be designed or provided for a wide variety of stamps 1, namely for different types of stamps, such as self-inking stamps 1 ( Fig. 9 , Fig. 11 ), Pre-ink stamps 1, especially flash stamps 1 ( Fig. 10 ), roller stamp ( Fig. 1b ) etc., as well as stamps 1 in different designs, such as rectangular or square stamps 1 ( Fig. 9 , Fig. 10 ), oval or round stamps 1 ( Fig. 11 ).
  • the different types and designs of the stamps 1 preferably have the upper surface 8 of the upper part 3 in the upper end area and in the opposite end area or in the receiving area 14 the color application device 13, wherein the cutting device 2 together with swivel mechanism 7 is preferably arranged in the upper end area.
