Definitions

  • This invention relates to a sheet separating mechanism particularly for printing inaohines and duplioators comprising a table for a supply stack of sheets, side rails, which are preferably adjustable to different sheet widths, at least one front stop, with which the front .edge in the corner of a sheet can engage during the advance of the sheet by means of a sheet advancing mechanism, at least one angular finger, one angle part of which bears against the said corner of the sheet and which is movable at least approximately in a plane at right angles to the table.
  • Front separator members are known consisting only of fixed abutments, one at either corner of the front edge of the paper. When advanced the sheet abuts on these members and buckles so that the topmost sheet is hereby separated from the underlying sheets in the supply stack. At a certain point of the advance the corners of the sheet are released and go clear of the abutment members, whereupon the sheet straightens and is led further on towards the place of printing. This primitive way of effecting a separation of the sheets is not satisfactory under the strongly varying conditions prevailing in practice where papers of widely varying thickness and stiffness are to be handled.
  • sheet separating mechanisms have been constructed comprising a finger which presses down against the topmost sheet of paper and which is built together with a front stop which the front edge of the sheet of paper engages during its advance.
  • the finger with the front stop is mounted so as to be vertically displacea ble and is furthermore connected mechanically to the side rail so that a width adjustment of the side rail will entail a corresponding positive displacement of the finger.
  • the position of the finger is defined by the position of the side rail to which it is connected. On the face of it, this measure should be able to ensure that there will always be an overlapping of the topmost sheet of paper with a constant part of the finger.
  • the finger constantly lies accurately in relation to the sheet which during the sheet separation on the whole behaves as if it were clamped at both ends, the clamping at the front end occurring by the finger resting against the sheet, while at the other end the clamping is represented by the sheet advancing mechanism, generally a rubber roller, which advances the sheet and which may be laterally adjustable.
  • the sheet advancing mechanism generally a rubber roller, which advances the sheet and which may be laterally adjustable.
  • the finger should be pressed down with a comparatively great force, while on the other hand in the case of e.g. air-mail paper it should bear against the sheet with a very light pressure.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved sheet separating mechanism that is well adaptable to duplicators having a fixed table for the supply of sheets as ,well as to duplicators having a table that raises the supply of sheets.
  • the other angle part of the abovernentioned finger is at least approximately parallel to the side rail and arranged for contacting the side of the stack of sheets at the front corner of the latter, further the finger is mounted movable in relation to the side rail in a direction substantially at right angles to the plane of the side rail, and still further the finger is actuated by a force tending to lead it in the direction towards the plane of the opposite side rail and thereby towards the stack of sheets.
  • the finger will under all conditions press with a small vertical part against the side of the stack of sheets, but only against comparatively few sheets at the top of the stack, so that the overlapping of the top sheet by the horizontal part of the finger is not influenced by the manner in which the remaining sheets in the stack are located or cut.
  • the fact that the position of the finger is not determined by the more or less accurate location of the side rail, but may on the contrary be moved freely in relation to the latter and parallel to the table eliminates the drawback otherwise asserting itself due to the fact that the paper width varies during the duplication process.
  • the double possibility of mobility for the finger indicated may according to the invention be effected by the I finger being in fixed connection with one end of a tiltable double armed lever which is rotatably and tiltably con- .nected to the side rail and which at its other end is springbiased in the direction away from the side rail.
  • the tiltable lever functions as a double-armed lever which dur- 1 ing its operation is disposed horizontally and which can be moved in the horizontal as well as in the vertical plane, it may in a simple way be so arranged as to produce a desired pressure against the sheet.
  • the double mobility or two degrees of freedom may according to the invention be achieved in a simple way of the tiltable lever being provided with a transverse convexity with which it abuts on the side rail and, incidentally has its axis of rotation disposed in the convexity at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the latter.
  • the line of contact between the convexity and the side rail here functions as one axis of rotation, around which the tiltable lever rotates in the horizontal plane, while the other axis of rotation is formed by e.g., a pin passing through the side rail and the tiltable lever.
  • the finger when moving in-th vertical plane the finger describes part of a circular arc.
  • the finger may according to the invention be carried by a guided rail which is mounted freely movably on a front rail connected to the side rail.
  • any point in the finger is bound to move in a plane parallel to the front face of the stack of sheets.
  • This embodiment is applicable in machines comprising a table which is vertically displaceable independently of the side rails.
  • the finger may in the usual manner comprise a front stop, but certain advantages are obtained if instead the front rail is provided with a front stop for the corner of the front edge of the sheet.
  • the fact is that during the advance of the paper a forwarddirected force will be exerted against the front stop, and this may reduce the free mobility of the finger. The friction may even become so great that the finger remains stuck without getting its horizontal part into contact with the topmost sheet in the stack.
  • This drawback may be completely avoided by the front stop and the finger being made independent of each other.
  • Another drawback is also avoided which in duplicators with vertically displacable tables and without secondary paper advance has asserted itself during the printing, viz. that jumps in the printing height may occur at irregular intervals.
  • the guided rail is connected to the front rail by means of a pin-slot connection and is stressed downwardly and for turning by means of a spring which, when the finger is not influenced by sheets,presses it against a limitation stop in the direction towards the opposite side rail.
  • the pressure from the spring gives the finger the necessary abutment pressure downwards from above against the topmost sheet, and presses the vertical part of the finger in against the stack of sheets to ensure a correct placing of the horizontal part of the finger in relation to the sheet.
  • means are conveniently 'provided for adjusting the spring pressure so that an adjustment according to the stiffness of the sheets used may easily be performed.
  • the spring may according to the invention be a leaf spring which at one end is secured to a rail and is disposed obliquely in relation to the rail and the other end of which presses against the guided, finger-provided rail, and the adjustment means may be formed by a contact member which is displaceable along the rail. By the displacement of the contact member the spring is forced more or less out into an arc, and by this means its pressure against the guided rail may be varied.
  • the finger is according to the invention mounted displaceably and .rotatably on the carriage and is subjected to the stress from a preferably adjustable force which tends to turn the finger in the direction in towards the stack of sheets.
  • the movement of the finger is also limited in such a way that each of its points is bound to move in a plane which during the operation will be substantially vertical.
  • the finger may according to the invention be part of a double-armed lever which can swing around an axis that is displaceable in relation to the finger.
  • the shaft of rotation of the finger is expediently a pin which is in fixed connection with the carriage and which engages a slot in the finger which can thus perform a limited movement of displacement.
  • a front stop may be mounted in connection with the finger or, with the advantages already mentioned, in connection with the carriage.
