Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne une goulotte de sortie de ticket pour machine distributrice de tickets telle qu'un horodateur, et plus particulièrement une telle goulotte possédant une fente de sortie à travers laquelle une extrémité d'un ticket est susceptible d'être présentée à un utilisateur.The present invention relates to a ticket outlet chute for a ticket dispensing machine such as a parking meter, and more particularly to such a chute having an outlet slot through which one end of a ticket is capable of being presented to a user. .
Des horodateurs sont utilisés notamment comme appareils de péage de stationnement. Ces appareils délivrent à l'utilisateur, en échange d'une certaine quantité de monnaie, un ticket portant le jour et l'heure limite de stationnement correspondant au prix payé. Ce ticket est ensuite disposé de manière apparente à l'intérieur du véhicule.Parking meters are used in particular as parking toll machines. These devices deliver to the user, in exchange for a certain amount of currency, a ticket bearing the day and time limit for parking corresponding to the price paid. This ticket is then apparently placed inside the vehicle.
Dans ces appareils, le ticket est imprimé et découpé puis amené par une goulotte jusqu'à une fente de sortie où une de ses extrémités est présentée à l'utilisateur, le reste du ticket restant à l'intérieur de la goulotte. L'utilisateur saisit l'extrémité libre du ticket et le tire à lui pour l'extraire totalement de la goulotte.In these devices, the ticket is printed and cut, then brought by a chute to an exit slot where one of its ends is presented to the user, the rest of the ticket remaining inside the chute. The user grasps the free end of the ticket and pulls it out to completely extract it from the chute.
Lorsque, comme cela est généralement le cas, la fente se trouve sur la face avant de l'appareil en vis-à-vis de l'utilisateur, le ticket est extrait sans difficulté.When, as is generally the case, the slot is on the front face of the device facing the user, the ticket is easily extracted.
En revanche, des difficultés se présentent lorsque la fente de sortie du ticket se trouve sur une face latérale de l'appareil. En effet, l'utilisateur a toujours tendance à tirer vers lui l'extrémité du ticket dépassant de la fente. Il en résulte alors un froissement et éventuellement un déchirement du ticket pouvant conduire à un bourrage de la goulotte de sortie. W.O. 91/03802 enseigne un distributeur du type mentionné au début, qui est monté pivotant autour d'un axe vertical et aligne ainsi le ticket extrait dans la direction de la force d'extraction exercée par l'utilisateur, avant de revenir à une position de repos sous l'effet d'un ressort de rappel. Ce distributeur, qui nécessite un mécanisme complexe, est en fait un distributeur frontal orientable et non un distributeur latéral.On the other hand, difficulties arise when the ticket exit slot is on a side face of the device. Indeed, the user always tends to pull towards him the end of the ticket protruding from the slot. This then results in a wrinkling and possibly a tearing of the ticket which can lead to a jam of the outlet chute. WO 91/03802 teaches a dispenser of the type mentioned at the start, which is pivotally mounted about a vertical axis and thus aligns the extracted ticket in the direction of the extraction force exerted by the user, before returning to a position rest under the effect of a return spring. This distributor, which requires a complex mechanism, is in fact a swiveling front distributor and not a lateral distributor.
La présente invention vise à pallier les inconvénients mentionnés ci-dessus.The present invention aims to overcome the drawbacks mentioned above.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet une goulotte de sortie de ticket pour machine distributrice de tickets telle qu'un horodateur, possédant une fente de sortie à travers laquelle une extrémité d'un ticket est susceptible d'être présentée à un utilisateur, caractérisée par le fait qu'elle est agencée pour permettre, lors de l'extraction du ticket par l'utilisateur, une rotation de la partie du ticket restant à l'intérieur de la goulotte autour d'au moins un des bords latéraux de ladite fente. Ainsi, lorsque la fente est disposée sur une face latérale de l'appareil et que l'utilisateur tire à lui une extrémité de ticket dépassant de la fente, le ticket vient en premier lieu se plaquer contre le bord de la goulotte le plus proche de l'utilisateur, puis il pivote autour du bord correspondant de la fente jusqu'à se dégager de la goulotte.To this end, the subject of the invention is a ticket outlet chute for ticket dispensing machine such as a parking meter, having an outlet slot through which one end of a ticket is capable of being presented to a user. , characterized in that it is arranged to allow, during the extraction of the ticket by the user, a rotation of the part of the ticket remaining inside the chute around at least one of the lateral edges of said slot. Thus, when the slot is arranged on a lateral face of the device and the user pulls at him an end of the ticket protruding from the slot, the ticket comes first to press against the edge of the chute closest to the user, then it pivots around the corresponding edge of the slot until it clears the chute.
Dans un mode de réalisation particulier, la goulotte possède une largeur sensiblement égale à la diagonale de la partie du ticket restant à l'intérieur de la goulotte.In a particular embodiment, the chute has a width substantially equal to the diagonal of the part of the ticket remaining inside the chute.
Bien entendu, la goulotte peut posséder une dimension supérieure à cette diagonale. Elle peut également posséder une largeur légèrement inférieure, dans la mesure où la traction exercée sur le ticket peut, si les frottements sont suffisamment faibles, entraîner un léger glissement du ticket vers l'extérieur de la goulotte.Of course, the chute can have a dimension greater than this diagonal. It may also have a slightly smaller width, insofar as the traction exerted on the ticket can, if the friction is sufficiently low, cause a slight sliding of the ticket towards the outside of the chute.
La goulotte peut posséder une largeur constante ou au contraire s'élargir au voisinage de son extrémité.The chute may have a constant width or, on the contrary, widen in the vicinity of its end.
On décrira maintenant à titre d'exemple non limitatif un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention en référence aux dessins schématiques annexés dans lesquels :
- les figures 1 et 2 sont des vues en perspective des deux élements d'une goulotte d'horodateur selon l'invention,
- la figure 3 représente la goulotte assemblée et,
- la figure 4 est une vue développée en plan d'une goulotte et d'un ticket correspondant.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 are perspective views of the two elements of a parking meter chute according to the invention,
- FIG. 3 represents the assembled chute and,
- Figure 4 is a developed plan view of a chute and a corresponding ticket.
La goulotte 1 de la figure 3 est constituée pour l'essentiel d'un guide 2 de papier et d'une pièce 3 délimitant avec le guide 2 un conduit à section rectangulaire allongée, la pièce 3 permettant de plaquer sur le guide 2 un ticket en papier 4.The
Le guide 2 est composé de deux plaques 5 et 6 respectivement sensiblement horizontale et sensiblement verticale réunies par des nervures 7.The
Entre les lames 5 et 6 et les nervures 7, le guide.2 présente des trous 8 de telle sorte que, lorsqu'un outil telle qu'une lame souple de couteau est introduit dans la goulotte, celui-ci ne peut la remonter jusqu'à l'imprimante. Cet agencement réduit de manière significative les risques de vandalisme.Between the
Le guide présente par ailleurs des pattes de montage 9 pour le fixer sur l'imprimante de l'horodateur.The guide also has mounting lugs 9 for fixing it to the printer of the parking meter.
La pièce 3 a une section sensiblement en S dont la partie inférieure vient s'appuyer sur des nervures de bord 10 du guide 2. Le bord inférieur 11 de la pièce 3 et le bord de la plaque 5 délimitent une fente 12 de sortie du ticket 4.The
Cette forme en S permet de freiner le ticket et de le retenir dans la goulotte pour éviter qu'il ne tombe par terre, ou qu'il ne s'envole en cas de courant d'air.This S-shape allows the ticket to be braked and retained in the chute to prevent it from falling to the ground, or flying away in the event of a draft.
Le ticket est présenté à l'utilisateur dans sa position représentée à la figure 3 où il sort légèrement de la fente 12 et se trouve au milieu de la goulotte 1.The ticket is presented to the user in its position shown in FIG. 3 where it slightly exits from the
L'utilisateur saisit l'extrémité dépassante 13 et la tire vers lui dans la direction représentée par la flèche 14.The user grasps the protruding
Le ticket vient alors se plaquer contre le bord 15 de la goulotte dans sa position représentée en traits mixtes à la figure 4.The ticket is then pressed against the
La goulotte a ici une largeur D sensiblement égale à la diagonale de la partie du ticket intérieure à cette goulotte.The chute here has a width D substantially equal to the diagonal of the part of the ticket inside this chute.
Ainsi, lorsque l'utilisateur continue à tirer à lui le ticket, celui-ci pivote autour du bord 16 de la fente 12 jusqu'à s'extraire complètement de la goulotte 1 sans froissement et sans déchirement.Thus, when the user continues to draw the ticket to him, it pivots around the
