Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for flow control of pressure carriers, especially letters, in a separating device of a mail processing system.
- the letters can have different thicknesses as well as the permissible Show formats in irregular order.
- the processing like this any letters that arise are referred to as mixed mail operations.
- a method for operating a high-speed mail processing machine for processing mixed mail with different thicknesses and different dimensions is known, see EP 0 503 502 B1.
- the method includes the steps of moving each piece of mail to a weighing station, weighing it, and then printing the value stamp. These steps are activated and controlled by a drive controller in accordance with several sensors.
- the sensors are distributed across the machine, some of which are optical sensors.
- the method also causes a special sensor processor to access the sensors and to inform the drive control of their state after they have been activated beforehand.
- the access step includes periodically executing a master cycle so as to access each sensor in a first group during each cycle and access each sensor in a second group only for some, but not all, cycles.
- the sensor data are written into a RAM which the control can access.
- An arrangement for pre-separating printing media is also known, see DE 196 05 017 A1, in which letters are placed one behind the other as a stack of letters standing on one edge and the letters are fed laterally away from the stack of letters to a separating device.
- the letters are arranged between a spring-loaded pressure bracket and at least one drive roller and a guide plate inclined slightly backwards.
- the base for the letters and the guide plate are orthogonal to each other.
- a device for separating printing media in particular letters, according to the subsequently published DE 198 36 235.8 and FIGS. 1 to 4 was found.
- the letters A are also stacked one behind the other in the separating device B with an edge on a lower guide plate 2 between a spring-loaded pressure bracket 21 and drive roller combinations 3, 4 and a guide plate 1 which is inclined slightly to the rear.
- the drive rollers with their cylindrical enveloping surfaces protrude through openings in the guide plate 1 and the letters A are individually transported away laterally by the former.
- the separating device B is divided into a pre-separating area I with two drive roller combinations 3, 4 in the start-stop mode and into a separating area II with elements 6, 7, 77 for separating with continuous passage.
- a sensor 10 for printing medium detection and ejection means 9 in the form of a pair of ejection rollers 91, 92.
- the elements 6, 7, 77 for singulation consist of a drive belt combination 6, a driven counter-roller combination 7 adapted to this and an upstream, likewise adapted Slide lever combination 77.
- the sensor 10b is arranged in the area of the counter roller combination 7 and is electrically connected to a drive 5 for the two drive roller combinations 3, 4 in such a way that the drive 5 is switched on in each case when the print carrier end is detected.
- the ejector roller pair 91, 92 consists of a driven ejector roller 91 and an driven ejector roller 92.
- the driven ejector roller 91 is fastened on a rotatable axis 911 behind the guide plate 1 and partially protrudes through an adapted opening thereof.
- the driven ejection roller 92 is fastened on a likewise rotatable axis 921 in front of the guide plate 1, see in particular FIGS. 2 and 3.
- the axis 921 is rotatably supported on a rotatably spring-mounted support lever 93.
- a common drive 8 is provided for the drive belt combination 6, the counter roller combination 7 together with the slide lever combination 77 and the ejection roller pair 91, 92.
- the purpose of the invention is to improve the performance properties.
- the invention has for its object the letter throughput in a Separating device of the type described above to the Throughput of the successor devices, in particular a subsequent one Postage meter to adapt.
- the invention is based on the consideration that there must be a minimum distance from the leading edge of the letter to the leading edge of the letter in the franking machine, which corresponds to the longest franking impression plus print head width plus a security measure. This is at least the distance for small, short letters. For larger or longer letters, the distance from the leading edge to the leading edge is necessarily greater than this minimum distance. In this case it is important to keep the distance between the long letter and the following letter as small as possible or to achieve the greatest possible throughput.
- the invention solves this problem by controlling the transport speed in the individual passage areas of the letters in the separating device. Depending on the transport speed of the successor device, the transfer speed is adapted to this. This prevents congestion in the downstream device from this side.
- the transport speed in the separation area is set higher than the transfer speed until a letter has reached the ejection area. This corresponds to the accelerated transport in the separation area. This serves to increase the throughput in general and in particular to reduce the distance between successive letters.
- the transport speed in the separating area is set to less than or equal to the transfer speed as long as a letter is in the ejection area. This corresponds to normal transport in the separation area. This prevents the formation of jams in front of the discharge area.
- the transport speed in the pre-separation area is set greater than the transfer speed and greater than the increased transport speed in the separation area, as long as there is no letter in the entrance area of the separation area. This corresponds to the accelerated transport in the pre-separation area.
- the transport speed in the pre-separation area is set to less than or equal to the normal transport speed in the separation area when a letter has reached the entrance area of the separation area and there is no further letter in front of the ejection area. This corresponds to normal transport in the pre-separation area. This prevents the formation of jams in the entrance area of the separation area.
- the transport speed is set to zero in the pre-separation area as long as there is a letter in the entrance area and in the other areas of the separation area. This corresponds to the stop or idle operation in the pre-separation area. This prevents jamming or multiple deductions.
- the transfer speed to the successor device that is the transport speed that is generated with the pair of ejection rollers, is continuously monitored. It is always kept lower than or equal to the transport speed set in the successor device, but somewhat higher - approximately 10% - than the transport speed in the initial area of the separation area, that is the transport speed generated with the elements for separation. Furthermore, in the pre-separation area the transport speed, which is generated with the drive rollers during accelerated transport, is set correspondingly higher - approximately 30% - than the transfer speed in the separation area.
- the letter is scanned in the entrance area of the singling area and immediately after the singling in order to derive corresponding control signals for the drive in the pre-singling area and in the singling area in connection with further scanning results.
- the letter is scanned in the ejection area of the separating device in order to derive corresponding control signals for the pre-separating area, the separating area and the successor device.
- the sensor 10a is expediently used as a reflex sensor executed. With this sensor 10a it is determined whether the letter A in this area has penetrated or is still in it Area.
- an optical sensor 10b is arranged in a correspondingly adapted opening of the rear guide plate 1 immediately after the drive belt combination 6 or counter roller combination 7.
- the sensor 10b is also expediently designed as a reflex sensor. This sensor 10b determines whether a letter A is present in this area.
- the ejection roller pair 91, 92 is arranged at such a distance after the counter roller combination 7 that the shortest possible letter A is already detected by the former before the latter has left the latter.
- a sensor 13 for measuring the transport speed of the letter A is arranged on the rotatable axis 921 for the driven ejection roller 92 at this point.
- the sensor 13 is designed as an encoder, the output signal of which is compared by means of the evaluation circuit 15 with a signal corresponding to the transport speed in the downstream device 16 and from which a signal for controlling the common drive 8 in the separation area II and the drive 5 in the pre-separation area I is derived, see also Fig. 4 and 5.
- a letter A which passes the ejection roller pair 91, 92, is linearly moved by the driven ejection roller 91 by frictional engagement and also transmits its movement synchronously by frictional engagement to the resiliently adjustable driven ejection roller 92 as a rotary movement.
- the driven ejection roller 92 is firmly seated on the axis 921.
- a sensor 14 is also provided, which is arranged in the ejection area for the letters A immediately before or after the line of contact between the ejection roller pair 91, 92 in the guide plate 1.
- the sensor 14 is advantageously also designed as a reflex sensor. With the help of this sensor 14, it is recognized whether a letter A has reached or left the ejection area and, in addition, the current transport speed in the subsequent device 16 is queried via the evaluation circuit 15.
- the sensors 10a, 10b, 14 for letter scanning are connected to the evaluation circuit 15, the core of which is a microprocessor and a comparison circuit.
- the evaluation circuit 15 is bidirectionally connected to the successor device (s) 16, in particular its control processor (s).
- the follow-up device 16 can be a dynamic scale or / and a franking machine. Furthermore, the evaluation circuit 15 is connected to the drive 5 of the pre-separation area I and to the drive 8 of the separation area II for the purpose of emitting corresponding control signals.
- the output signals of the sensors 10a, 10b, 14 are linked in the evaluation circuit 15 in such a way that that the drive 5 in the pre-separation area I is set to accelerated transport when the sensor 10a does not recognize a letter A, that the drive 5 in the pre-separation area I is set to normal transport when the sensor 10a recognizes a letter A and the sensor 10b does not recognize a letter A.
