- This type of device is widely used in the world, so that its optimized implementation perfectly meets the requirements of the market and the traction of the end of the material strip by the user.
- this type of device has certain limits of use such as for example recalled for the loading mode of the coil, or the very large size of the device. This last disadvantage is extremely detrimental for certain applications and in particular in domestic application.
- the reduction in volume of the device does not necessarily suggest a reduction in the dimensions of its components because the features require a powerful cutting device with a clean cut of the strip of material, at each given cutting format.
- the applicant's approach has therefore been to look for a radically different type of device that eliminates certain essential components of the prior art, in order to provide a small volume dispensing device with a reduction in the range of about 30 to 40%. compared to existing hardware on the market today.
- the dispensing apparatus of the invention is defined by the features of claim 1.

- the two flanges (4 - 5) are braced at their rear part by a connecting plate (6) of great length.
- the flanges-connecting plate assembly can be molded in one piece.
- the flanges can receive pins (7) end supports (8) between which is disposed the coil (b) of material. At least one of the flanges can be moved elastically outwards to facilitate the introduction of the coil.
- the lower part of the support structure receives two drums (9 - 10) arranged side by side but without direct contact between them and whose ends (9.1 - 10.1) are mounted in holes (4.1 - 5.1) formed on the aforementioned flanges.
- the two drums are nevertheless associated with each other because they each receive, at one of their ends, located on the same side, a first and a second ring gear (11 - 12) which meshes with each other. to the other.
- the first drum (9) is called the blade drum while the second (10) is referred to as the return drum.
- the drum (9) disposed at the rear is internally hollow and receives a cutting blade (13) made in one or two parts and articulated on a blade arm (14).
- This cutting blade is characterized by a twisted shape of all of its teeth, allowing a progressive penetration effect of the blade in the material from the ends to go towards the central zone thereof.
- Each tooth is advantageously in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the drum. More particularly, as shown in the drawings, the cutting blade is made in two parts (13.1 - 13.2) fixed by screws or otherwise to the blade arm (14). The two blade portions join to the central portion of the drum (9.1), while leaving a space (e) corresponding in practice to a cradle (15) supporting the blade arm relative to the inner bottom of the drum.
- This cradle has a recess for rotating the arm on itself.
- one end (14.1) thereof has a protruding stop (16) which comes into contact with bearing limiting surfaces (17) and established on the transverse face (9.2) of the drum.
- the other end (14.3) of the arm receives a notched ring (18) adjacent to the first ring gear (11) as recalled above.
- the notched ring is rotatably mounted with the arm. The function of this toothed ring will be specified later.
- the second return drum (10) has, in its central part, a radial cavity (10.1) which lies in the extension of the support cradle (15) of the blade arm (14) of the first drum (9).
- This second drum (10) receives at the end a second fixed ring gear (12) cooperating with the first fixed ring (11) of the first drum.
- Said second drum has an axis (10.1) capable of engaging in a bearing evident established in the lower part of the flange opposite.
- Said axis is capable of receiving in addition, between the second toothed crown (12) and the flange, a third ring gear (19) of small diameter and which is capable of cooperating with a fourth ring gear (20) complementary mounted on the flange (4) facing.
- This fourth ring gear (20) is of larger diameter in a much higher dimensional ratio, comprising a number of teeth corresponding to the size dimension of the strip of material to be cut. Said fourth ring gear (20) is able to cooperate with a non-return pawl (22) mounted on an axis (23) fixed on the flange (4) with stop (22.1). The fourth ring gear (20) receives, on its face (20.1) facing the flange, a profiled fixed cam (24) whose function will be described later.
- the fourth ring (20) has, on its side (20.2), drum side (9 - 10), an opening (20.3) allowing the positioning of a finger (42.1), a link (42) in the other end (42.2), allows the attachment of a return spring (26), the other end is secured to a fixed point (27) formed on the flange (4).
- the rod thus provides an eccentric function during the rotation of the ring (20), and this against the return spring (26), by constituting the mechanism for rotating the drums (9 - 10).
- the shaft (9.1) of the drum (9) is extended flange side to receive a cam (27) movable articulated on the axis, this cam being profiled in a specific manner to cooperate in certain operating phases with the first cam (24) above.
- the two drums (9 - 10) have, near their first and second toothed rings (10 - 11) respectively, two recesses (47) opposite or not allowing the insertion Provision of a caliper (29) forming a jig and whose end is set in the form of fork to penetrate into the recesses (47).
- This stirrup has the function of allowing to adjust in position the different notched crowns between them depending on the format of the strip of material to be cut.
- This template has an axis (29.1) capable of engaging in the central axial opening (20.4) of the ring (20). It also has an index (29.2) engaging in an opening (20.5) formed on the ring (20). This opening is arranged in a particular way with the format setting. It defines the position of the notched crown (20), support of the fixed cam (24), and this relative to another movable cam (27) which will be described elsewhere.
- the drum (10) is capable of receiving, in its radial recess (10.1) with a free and controlled articulation, an attached fork-shaped lug (30) secured to a flap (31), said flap being capable, after positioning the tab, by snapping on the drum (10), to cover the drum (9) completely and partially the drum (10).
- Said flap internally has protruding ribs (31.1) arranged regularly and whose function is to guide the strip of material during cutting.
- a lower flap (32) is hingedly mounted from a front spacer bar (43) formed between the flanges (4 - 5).
- This lower flap has a curvilinear shape that can substantially surround the drum (10) on an angular sector and from below the drum (10).
- This flap opens from the front of the device and allows introducing and guiding the free end of the web of material from the reel.
- the drum (9) has, at the end of its shaft, opposite to said toothed crowns, a bearing surface (9.5) capable of fixedly receiving a loading wheel (33) of large diameter protruding outwardly from the cartridge. and the apparatus to allow manual control for loading or troubleshooting, by the user, the reel of material to be dispensed.
- the reel of material may be placed between the support flanges, in one direction or another, that is to say that the uncoiled strip of the reel is located either on the front of the apparatus as shown figure 2 , towards the rear of the latter (not shown). Said strip is then introduced between the roll (10) and the lower flap (31) retractable past the device and the strip is introduced and guided to pass between the two drums (9 - 10) to wind partially on the drum (9) comprising the cutting device.
- a guide (38) secured to the front spacer bar (43) ensures the upward return of the web of material between the drums (9-10).
- the strip of material exits through the rear of the apparatus being guided by the hinged flap (31).
- the blade arm (14) receives, at the end end, a pinion (18) which is capable of cooperating with a pinion complementary (36) formed laterally on the movable cam (27).
- a pinion complementary (36) formed laterally on the movable cam (27).
- the movable cam (27) has a specific configuration with a semicircular rear portion (27.a) extending by a first straight slope (27.b), a second straight slope (27c) but oriented angularly with respect to the first to arrive to a bill shape (27.d) continuing through a line of connections (27.e) with the rear part of the cam.
- the fixed cam (24) arranged eccentrically on the fourth inner ring is of smaller bean-shaped dimension with in particular a rectilinear base (24.1).
- the loading of the coil consists in introducing the free end thereof between the lower flap (32) retractable and the drum (10) which has, for this purpose, and advantageously, a gripping surface.
- the strip is guided between the two drums (9 - 10) then, by the support effect of the upper flap, said strip partially winds the drum (9) to exit behind the latter.
- the cutting blade is integrated in its drum (9) without leaving.
- the return spring is not stressed in extension.
- the fourth ring (20) is rotating.
- the point of attachment and attachment of the rod (42) moves away by causing the extension of the return means (26) to exceed a dead point corresponding to the maximum distance of the fixing point of the rod relative to at the fixed fixing point formed on the flange.
- the rotation of the toothed ring (10) simultaneously causes the rotation of the toothed ring (18) mounted on the blade arm, and thus the gradual output of the cutting blade from the drum (9).
- the output of the cutting blade takes place at the end of the second rotation of the drum (9) on itself, and in particular for a format of 25 centimeters.
- the maximum dead point the cutting blade is fully extended and exceeding the dead point causes the mechanism and the cutting blade to return to the initial position with the corresponding section of the material strip.
- the re-entry of the cutting blade is effected by the contact of the two teeth (13.3) close to the central zone of the drum. These two teeth come into perpendicular contact with two abutments (41) made of rubber and which allow, by a counter-support effect, the tilting back of the blade holder on itself with pivoting blades and therefore teeth until upon their return to the drum (9).
- a first possibility is to have on the drum (10), a toothed ring (12) determined with a suitable number of teeth for the chosen format, for example 25 centimeters. This corresponds to the illustrated implementation figure 1 .
- the change of format requires changing the ring (12) by another ring having a different number of teeth and will obtain a different dimensional ratio between the rings (20 and 12) to obtain a different format, for example 37 centimeters. If the crown (12) is molded with the drum (10), it is only this component that must be changed, the others remaining the same. It should be noted that depending on the diameter of the ring (20), two or three turns of the drum (9) will be necessary before the output of the cutting blade.
- the drum (10) is arranged differently with the reception of a movable shaft (10.1) capable of receiving a sliding pinion (45).
- the movable axle (10.1) is axially slidable with respect to the drum (10) while being held at its two ends, on the one hand by the drum itself, and on the other hand by an opening formed in the flange (4). ) above.
- Said drum is arranged in its end part with a profiled internal cavity allowing, on the one hand, the housing and guiding of the end of the axis (10.1) and, on the other hand, the housing of the crown ( 19) in a determined position.
- Said ring (19) is integral with the axis (10.1) movable, but in a spacing space (1.e) relative to the sliding pinion (45).
- this second implementation requires an arrangement of the notched crown (20). This is then associated with a fifth ring (21) toothed having a number of teeth different from the ring (20). The check hook (22) cooperates with the fifth ring (21), the fixed cam (24) is secured to the inner face of the ring (21).
- the movable axis (10.1) has a radial finger or index (10.1b) which constitutes the thrust member of said axis to present the pinions (45 and 19) in the appropriate manner, as shown in FIGS. Figures 11 and 12 .
- figure 11 corresponding to a format of 25 centimeters for example, it is the crown (19) which cooperates with the crown (20).
- the sliding pinion (45) is pushed towards the flange (4).
- the operator pushes the index so as to cause the displacement of the movable axis (10.1).
- it is the sliding pinion (45) which comes into contact with the ring (21), while the pinion (19) is integrated in the inner cavity of the drum (10) without effect.
- the selector mechanism requires a prior adjustment by the operator.
- the advantages are apparent from the invention. It emphasizes the new design of the dispensing device which offers, in a small volume, an automatic distribution of strips of material, and this with a simplification of the mechanisms used.
- the coil can be presented by the maintenance operator in any direction in the device. It can be envisaged a standardized design of cartridges with a set of mechanisms allowing a distribution of formats, according to a first length, 25 centimeters for example, and another cartridge allowing, by suitable means, a distribution of material, in another format, 37 centimeters for example. Then just change the cartridge.
- the two cartridges are identical to the exclusion of one of the toothed crowns, namely the fourth which defines the number of teeth in relation to the paper format.
- a selector device can be integrated in the cartridge but it then requires each time adjustments, and therefore manipulations by the operator.

Abstract
Description
L'invention se rattache au secteur technique des appareils distributeurs à coupe automatique de matériau d'essuyage du type papier ouaté pour des applications essuie-mains, papier toilette, essuyage et nettoyage en général.The invention relates to the technical sector of dispensing devices with automatic cut wiping material of the wadded paper type for applications towel, toilet paper, wiping and cleaning in general.
Le demandeur a développé de nombreux appareils de ce type qui comprennent, de manière usuelle, un carter, un capot, un tambour avec lame de coupe intégrée, ladite lame étant susceptible de sortir du tambour en fonctionnement grâce à des moyens de lancement et de rappel du tambour incluant un excentrique et un ressort de lancement de rappel disposés à partir d'un côté latéral du tambour. Des flasques latéraux du carter sont agencés pour supporter la bobine de matériau qui vient, soit en appui direct sur le tambour selon l'enseignement du brevet
Selon l'art antérieur développé par le demandeur, à travers ses nombreux brevets, la bobine de chargement peut être montée soit en appui sur le tambour récepteur du mécanisme de coupe, soit être dans un plan au-dessus du tambour et sans contact avec ce dernier. Dans ce cas là, il est nécessaire d'utiliser un rouleau presseur qui vient en appui sur le tambour et qui permet la mise en tension de la bande de matériau à découper. Dans tous les cas, la bobine de matériau doit être présentée dans un sens particulier de sorte que la bande de matériau vienne par l'avant de l'appareil pour être introduite ensuite entre le tambour et la bobine ou le tambour et le rouleau presseur. Il n'y a pas d'alternative possible dans la position de la bobine car l'appareil ne fonctionnerait pas. Ce type d'appareil fait l'objet d'une très large exploitation au niveau mondial, de sorte que sa mise en oeuvre optimisée répond parfaitement aux exigences du marché et aux modalités de traction de l'extrémité de la bande de matériau par l'utilisateur.According to the prior art developed by the applicant, through its many patents, the loading coil can be mounted either on the support drum of the cutting mechanism, or be in a plane above the drum and without contact with it. latest. In this case, it is necessary to use a pressure roller which bears on the drum and which allows the tensioning of the strip of material to be cut. In all In such cases, the reel of material must be presented in a particular direction so that the web of material comes from the front of the apparatus to then be introduced between the drum and the reel or drum and the pressure roller. There is no alternative in the position of the coil because the device would not work. This type of device is widely used in the world, so that its optimized implementation perfectly meets the requirements of the market and the traction of the end of the material strip by the user.
Néanmoins, ce type d'appareil présente certaines limites d'utilisation telles que par exemple rappelées pour le mode de chargement de la bobine, ou par l'encombrement très important de l'appareil. Ce dernier inconvénient est extrêmement préjudiciable pour certaines applications et notamment en application domestique. La réduction en volume de l'appareil ne suggère pas forcément une réduction des dimensions de ses composants car les fonctionnalités requièrent un dispositif de coupe performant avec une coupe franche de la bande de matériau, à chaque format de coupe donné.However, this type of device has certain limits of use such as for example recalled for the loading mode of the coil, or the very large size of the device. This last disadvantage is extremely detrimental for certain applications and in particular in domestic application. The reduction in volume of the device does not necessarily suggest a reduction in the dimensions of its components because the features require a powerful cutting device with a clean cut of the strip of material, at each given cutting format.
Le document
L'art antérieur, hors déposant, n'a pas permis non plus de répondre aux besoins d'appareils distributeurs à coupe automatique miniaturisés.The prior art, apart from the applicant, has also not made it possible to meet the needs of miniaturized automatic cutting dispensers.
La démarche du demandeur a donc été de rechercher un nouveau type d'appareil radicalement différent supprimant certains composants essentiels de l'art antérieur et ce afin de proposer un appareil distributeur de petit volume avec une réduction de l'ordre de 30 à 40 % environ par rapport au matériel existant sur le marché actuellement.The applicant's approach has therefore been to look for a radically different type of device that eliminates certain essential components of the prior art, in order to provide a small volume dispensing device with a reduction in the range of about 30 to 40%. compared to existing hardware on the market today.
La démarche du demandeur a ainsi été de créer un nouvel appareil distributeur entièrement repensé dans sa structure et ses composants, qui soit apte et fonctionnel pour la coupe automatique de bandes de matériau aux conditions souhaitées par les utilisateurs.The applicant's approach was thus to create a new dispensing machine completely redesigned in its structure and its components, which is suitable and functional for the automatic cutting of strips of material to the conditions desired by the users.
L'appareil distributeur de l'invention est défini par les caractéristiques de la revendication 1.The dispensing apparatus of the invention is defined by the features of claim 1.
Un autre but recherché par le demandeur a été ensuite, dans certains modes de réalisation de l'invention, de standardiser certains composants communs de l'appareil pour permettre la coupe, selon des formats différents de bandes de matériau.Another object sought by the applicant was then, in some embodiments of the invention, to standardize certain common components of the apparatus to allow cutting in different formats of material webs.
Ces objectifs et d'autres encore ressortiront bien de la suite de la description.These and other objectives will be apparent from the rest of the description.

Afin de rendre plus concret l'objet de l'invention, on le décrit maintenant d'une manière non limitative illustrée aux figures des dessins.In order to make the object of the invention more concrete, it is now described in a nonlimiting manner illustrated in the figures of the drawings.
L'appareil distributeur de matériau d'essuyage à coupe automatique, selon l'invention, est référencé par (1). Il permet la distribution de tout type de matériau dont notamment papier, ouate, dans les applications de papier essuie-mains, papier toilette, papier essuie-tout et autres applications similaires.The dispensing apparatus for automatically cutting wiping material according to the invention is referenced by (1). It allows the distribution of any type of material including paper, wadding, in applications of paper towels, toilet paper, paper towels and other similar applications.
Cet appareil est de petit format, par rapport à l'art antérieur, et il est notamment établi dans des dimensions pouvant être, par exemple, de l'ordre de 28 x 25 x 20 centimètres, tout en permettant le traitement de bobines de plusieurs kilos. L'appareil comprend un carter de base (2) avec une face de fond (2.1) et une face inférieure (2.2) en prolongement, celle-ci constituant un plan d'appui. Ce carter est susceptible de recevoir un couvercle articulé (3) à sa base, tandis qu'un dispositif de fermeture à clé, connu en soi, assure la fermeture de l'ensemble.This device is of small size, compared to the prior art, and it is in particular established in dimensions that can be, for example, of the order of 28 x 25 x 20 centimeters, while allowing the processing of coils of several kilos. The apparatus comprises a base housing (2) with a bottom face (2.1) and a bottom face (2.2) in extension, the latter constituting a support plane. This housing is capable of receiving an articulated lid (3) at its base, while a locking device, known per se, ensures the closure of the assembly.
Le carter reçoit, d'une manière démontable et par encliquetage, une cartouche (c) constituant une structure porteuse définie par deux flasques transversaux (4 - 5) récepteurs de différents composants et autorisant le positionnement entre eux et notamment de différents rouleaux dont la fonction sera précisée par la suite. Les deux flasques (4 - 5) sont entretoisés à leur partie arrière par une plaque de liaison (6) de grande longueur. L'ensemble flasques-plaque de liaison peut être moulé monobloc. Dans la partie haute, les flasques peuvent recevoir des axes (7) supports d'embouts (8) entre lesquels est disposée la bobine (b) de matériau. Au moins l'un des flasques peut être écarté élastiquement vers l'extérieur pour faciliter l'introduction de la bobine.The casing receives, in a detachable manner and by latching, a cartridge (c) constituting a bearing structure defined by two transverse flanges (4 - 5) receiving different components and allowing the positioning between them and in particular different rollers whose function will be specified later. The two flanges (4 - 5) are braced at their rear part by a connecting plate (6) of great length. The flanges-connecting plate assembly can be molded in one piece. In the upper part, the flanges can receive pins (7) end supports (8) between which is disposed the coil (b) of material. At least one of the flanges can be moved elastically outwards to facilitate the introduction of the coil.
La partie basse de la structure porteuse reçoit deux tambours (9 - 10) disposés côte à côte mais sans contact direct entre eux et dont les extrémités (9.1 - 10.1) sont montées dans des trous (4.1 - 5.1) formés sur les flasques précités. Les deux tambours sont néanmoins associés l'un à l'autre car ils reçoivent chacun, à l'une de leurs extrémités, situées du même côté, une première et une seconde couronnes dentées (11 - 12) qui engrènent l'une par rapport à l'autre. Le premier tambour (9) est dénommé tambour porte-lame tandis que le second (10) est dénommé tambour de renvoi.The lower part of the support structure receives two drums (9 - 10) arranged side by side but without direct contact between them and whose ends (9.1 - 10.1) are mounted in holes (4.1 - 5.1) formed on the aforementioned flanges. The two drums are nevertheless associated with each other because they each receive, at one of their ends, located on the same side, a first and a second ring gear (11 - 12) which meshes with each other. to the other. The first drum (9) is called the blade drum while the second (10) is referred to as the return drum.
Le tambour (9) disposé à l'arrière est creux intérieurement et il reçoit une lame de coupe (13) réalisée en une ou deux parties et articulée sur un bras porte-lame (14). Cette lame de coupe est caractéristique par une forme en vrille de l'ensemble de ses dents, permettant un effet de pénétration progressif de la lame dans le matériau à partir des extrémités pour aller vers la zone centrale de celui-ci. Chaque dent se trouve avantageusement dans un plan perpendiculaire à l'axe longitudinal du tambour. Plus particulièrement, ainsi que représenté aux dessins, la lame de coupe est établie en deux parties (13.1 - 13.2) fixées par vis ou autrement au bras porte-lame (14). Les deux parties de lames se rejoignent vers la partie centrale du tambour (9.1), tout en laissant un espace (e) correspondant en pratique à un berceau (15) support du bras porte-lame par rapport au fond intérieur du tambour. Ce berceau présente une échancrure permettant la rotation du bras sur lui-même. En bout du bras, une extrémité (14.1) de celui-ci présente une butée (16) en saillie qui vient en contact avec des plans d'appui (17) limiteurs de course et établis sur la face transversale (9.2) du tambour. L'autre extrémité (14.3) du bras reçoit une bague crantée (18) adjacente à la première couronne dentée (11) telle que rappelée précédemment. La bague crantée est montée tournante avec le bras. La fonction de cette bague crantée sera précisée par la suite.The drum (9) disposed at the rear is internally hollow and receives a cutting blade (13) made in one or two parts and articulated on a blade arm (14). This cutting blade is characterized by a twisted shape of all of its teeth, allowing a progressive penetration effect of the blade in the material from the ends to go towards the central zone thereof. Each tooth is advantageously in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the drum. More particularly, as shown in the drawings, the cutting blade is made in two parts (13.1 - 13.2) fixed by screws or otherwise to the blade arm (14). The two blade portions join to the central portion of the drum (9.1), while leaving a space (e) corresponding in practice to a cradle (15) supporting the blade arm relative to the inner bottom of the drum. This cradle has a recess for rotating the arm on itself. At the end of the arm, one end (14.1) thereof has a protruding stop (16) which comes into contact with bearing limiting surfaces (17) and established on the transverse face (9.2) of the drum. The other end (14.3) of the arm receives a notched ring (18) adjacent to the first ring gear (11) as recalled above. The notched ring is rotatably mounted with the arm. The function of this toothed ring will be specified later.
Le second tambour (10) de renvoi présente, dans sa partie centrale, une cavité radiale (10.1) qui se situe dans le prolongement du berceau support (15) du bras porte-lame (14) du premier tambour (9). Ce second tambour (10) reçoit en extrémité une seconde couronne dentée fixe (12) coopérant avec la première couronne fixe (11) du premier tambour. Ledit second tambour présente un axe (10.1) susceptible de venir s'engager dans un évidemment formant palier établi dans la partie basse du flasque en regard. Ledit axe est susceptible de recevoir en plus, entre la seconde couronne dentée (12) et le flasque, une troisième couronne dentée (19) de petit diamètre et qui est susceptible de coopérer avec une quatrième couronne dentée (20) complémentaire montée sur le flasque (4) en regard. Cette quatrième couronne dentée (20) est de plus grand diamètre dans un rapport dimensionnel très supérieur, en comprenant un nombre de dents correspondant à la dimension du format de la bande de matériau à découper. Ladite quatrième couronne dentée (20) est susceptible de coopérer avec un cliquet anti-retour (22) monté sur un axe (23) fixé sur le flasque (4) avec butée (22.1). La quatrième couronne dentée (20) reçoit, sur sa face (20.1) en regard du flasque, une came fixe (24) profilée dont la fonction sera décrite par la suite. La quatrième couronne (20) présente, sur sa face (20.2), côté tambours (9 - 10), une ouverture (20.3) autorisant le positionnement d'un doigt (42.1), d'une biellette (42) dans l'autre extrémité (42.2), permet la fixation d'un ressort de rappel (26), dont l'autre extrémité est solidaire d'un point fixe (27) formé sur le flasque (4). La biellette assure ainsi une fonction d'excentrique lors de la rotation de la couronne (20), et ce à l'encontre du ressort de rappel (26), en constituant le mécanisme de lancement en rotation des tambours (9 - 10).The second return drum (10) has, in its central part, a radial cavity (10.1) which lies in the extension of the support cradle (15) of the blade arm (14) of the first drum (9). This second drum (10) receives at the end a second fixed ring gear (12) cooperating with the first fixed ring (11) of the first drum. Said second drum has an axis (10.1) capable of engaging in a bearing evident established in the lower part of the flange opposite. Said axis is capable of receiving in addition, between the second toothed crown (12) and the flange, a third ring gear (19) of small diameter and which is capable of cooperating with a fourth ring gear (20) complementary mounted on the flange (4) facing. This fourth ring gear (20) is of larger diameter in a much higher dimensional ratio, comprising a number of teeth corresponding to the size dimension of the strip of material to be cut. Said fourth ring gear (20) is able to cooperate with a non-return pawl (22) mounted on an axis (23) fixed on the flange (4) with stop (22.1). The fourth ring gear (20) receives, on its face (20.1) facing the flange, a profiled fixed cam (24) whose function will be described later. The fourth ring (20) has, on its side (20.2), drum side (9 - 10), an opening (20.3) allowing the positioning of a finger (42.1), a link (42) in the other end (42.2), allows the attachment of a return spring (26), the other end is secured to a fixed point (27) formed on the flange (4). The rod thus provides an eccentric function during the rotation of the ring (20), and this against the return spring (26), by constituting the mechanism for rotating the drums (9 - 10).
Selon une autre disposition, l'arbre (9.1) du tambour (9) se prolonge côté flasque pour recevoir une came (27) mobile articulée sur l'axe, cette came étant profilée d'une manière spécifique pour coopérer dans certaines phases de fonctionnement avec la première came (24) précitée.According to another arrangement, the shaft (9.1) of the drum (9) is extended flange side to receive a cam (27) movable articulated on the axis, this cam being profiled in a specific manner to cooperate in certain operating phases with the first cam (24) above.
Selon une autre disposition de l'invention, les deux tambours (9 - 10) présentent, près de leur première et seconde couronnes dentées (10 - 11) respectives, deux évidements (47) opposés ou non permettant l'insertion provisoire d'un étrier (29) formant gabarit et dont l'extrémité est établie en forme de fourche pour pénétrer dans les évidements (47). Cet étrier a pour fonction de permettre de régler en position les différentes couronnes crantées entre elles en fonction du format de la bande de matériau à débiter. Ce gabarit présente un axe (29.1) susceptible de s'engager dans l'ouverture centrale axiale (20.4) de la couronne (20). Il présente aussi un index (29.2) s'engageant dans une ouverture (20.5) formée sur la couronne (20). Cette ouverture est disposée de manière particulière avec le réglage de format. Elle définit la position de la couronne crantée (20), support de la came fixe (24), et ce par rapport à une autre came mobile (27) qui sera décrite par ailleurs.According to another embodiment of the invention, the two drums (9 - 10) have, near their first and second toothed rings (10 - 11) respectively, two recesses (47) opposite or not allowing the insertion Provision of a caliper (29) forming a jig and whose end is set in the form of fork to penetrate into the recesses (47). This stirrup has the function of allowing to adjust in position the different notched crowns between them depending on the format of the strip of material to be cut. This template has an axis (29.1) capable of engaging in the central axial opening (20.4) of the ring (20). It also has an index (29.2) engaging in an opening (20.5) formed on the ring (20). This opening is arranged in a particular way with the format setting. It defines the position of the notched crown (20), support of the fixed cam (24), and this relative to another movable cam (27) which will be described elsewhere.
Selon une autre disposition, le tambour (10) est susceptible de recevoir, dans sa cavité radiale (10.1) à articulation libre et contrôlée, une patte rapportée en forme de fourche (30), solidaire d'un volet (31), ce volet étant susceptible, après positionnement de la patte, par encliquetage sur le tambour (10), de recouvrir le tambour (9) en totalité et partiellement le tambour (10). Ledit volet présente intérieurement des nervures en saillie (31.1) disposées régulièrement et qui ont pour fonction d'assurer le guidage de la bande de matériau lors de la coupe.According to another arrangement, the drum (10) is capable of receiving, in its radial recess (10.1) with a free and controlled articulation, an attached fork-shaped lug (30) secured to a flap (31), said flap being capable, after positioning the tab, by snapping on the drum (10), to cover the drum (9) completely and partially the drum (10). Said flap internally has protruding ribs (31.1) arranged regularly and whose function is to guide the strip of material during cutting.
Selon une autre disposition, un volet inférieur (32) est monté articulé à partir d'une barre entretoise avant (43) formée entre les flasques (4 - 5). Ce volet inférieur présente une forme curviligne susceptible d'entourer sensiblement le tambour (10) sur un secteur angulaire et par le dessous du tambour (10). Ce volet s'ouvre par l'avant de l'appareil et il permet l'introduction et le guidage de l'extrémité libre de la bande de matériau en provenance de la bobine.According to another arrangement, a lower flap (32) is hingedly mounted from a front spacer bar (43) formed between the flanges (4 - 5). This lower flap has a curvilinear shape that can substantially surround the drum (10) on an angular sector and from below the drum (10). This flap opens from the front of the device and allows introducing and guiding the free end of the web of material from the reel.
Selon une autre disposition, le tambour (9) présente, en bout de son arbre, à l'opposé desdites couronnes dentées, une portée (9.5) susceptible de recevoir fixement une molette de chargement (33) de grand diamètre débordante extérieurement de la cartouche et de l'appareil afin de permettre la commande manuelle pour le chargement ou dépannage, par l'utilisateur, de la bobine de matériau à débiter.According to another arrangement, the drum (9) has, at the end of its shaft, opposite to said toothed crowns, a bearing surface (9.5) capable of fixedly receiving a loading wheel (33) of large diameter protruding outwardly from the cartridge. and the apparatus to allow manual control for loading or troubleshooting, by the user, the reel of material to be dispensed.
En se référant aux dessins, et en particulier
La bobine de matériau peut être mise en place entre les flasques supports, dans un sens ou dans un autre, c'est-à-dire que la bande déroulée de la bobine se situe, soit sur le devant de l'appareil comme représenté
Selon une autre disposition, le bras porte-lame (14) reçoit, en bout d'extrémité, un pignon (18) qui est susceptible de coopérer avec un pignon complémentaire (36) formé latéralement sur la came mobile (27). Ainsi, le déplacement et sortie de la lame de coupe provoquent, parallèlement et simultanément, la mise en position de la came mobile dans les conditions qui seront explicitées ci-après en référence aux dessins 7, 8, 9 et 10.According to another arrangement, the blade arm (14) receives, at the end end, a pinion (18) which is capable of cooperating with a pinion complementary (36) formed laterally on the movable cam (27). Thus, the movement and exit of the cutting blade cause, parallel and simultaneously, the positioning of the moving cam under the conditions which will be explained below with reference to the
La came mobile (27) présente une configuration spécifique avec une partie arrière semi-circulaire (27.a) se prolongeant par une première pente rectiligne (27.b), une deuxième pente rectiligne (27.c) mais orientée angulairement par rapport à la première pour arriver vers une forme en bec (27.d) se poursuivant par une ligne de raccordements (27.e) avec la partie arrière de la came.The movable cam (27) has a specific configuration with a semicircular rear portion (27.a) extending by a first straight slope (27.b), a second straight slope (27c) but oriented angularly with respect to the first to arrive to a bill shape (27.d) continuing through a line of connections (27.e) with the rear part of the cam.
La came fixe (24) disposée excentrée sur la quatrième couronne intérieure est de plus petite dimension en forme de haricot avec notamment une base rectiligne (24.1).The fixed cam (24) arranged eccentrically on the fourth inner ring is of smaller bean-shaped dimension with in particular a rectilinear base (24.1).
Il convient dès lors d'exposer le fonctionnement de l'appareil.It is therefore necessary to explain the operation of the apparatus.
Le chargement de la bobine consiste à introduire l'extrémité libre de celle-ci entre le volet inférieur (32) escamotable et le tambour (10) qui présente, à cet effet, et avantageusement, une surface agrippante. La bande est guidée entre les deux tambours (9 - 10) puis, par l'effet d'appui du volet supérieur, ladite bande enroule partiellement le tambour (9) pour sortir derrière ce dernier. A l'état initial, la lame de coupe se trouve intégrée dans son tambour (9) sans sortir. Le ressort de rappel n'est pas sollicité en extension. Lors de la traction de la bande matériau par l'utilisateur, on provoque progressivement et simultanément la rotation du tambour (9) qui engrène avec le tambour (10), et ce par les première et seconde couronnes (10 - 11) respectives. La troisième couronne (19), adjacente à la première couronne (11), provoque la rotation de la quatrième couronne (20). Le cliquet anti-retour, pénétrant dans les dents de la couronne (20), bloque en position le mécanisme en évitant un retour en position. La quatrième couronne (20) est tournante. Le point de liaison et de fixation de la biellette (42) s'éloigne en provoquant l'extension du moyen de rappel (26) jusqu'à dépasser un point mort correspondant à l'éloignement maximum du point de fixation de la biellette par rapport au point de fixation fixe formé sur le flasque. La rotation de la couronne crantée (10) entraîne simultanément la rotation de la bague crantée (18) montée sur le bras porte-lame, et donc la sortie progressive de la lame de coupe hors du tambour (9). En pratique, la sortie de la lame de coupe a lieu au bout du deuxième tour de rotation du tambour (9) sur lui-même, et ce en particulier pour un format de 25 centimètres. En point mort maximum, la lame de coupe est sortie en totalité et le dépassement du point mort provoque le retour en position initiale du mécanisme et de la lame de coupe avec la coupe correspondante de la bande de matériau.The loading of the coil consists in introducing the free end thereof between the lower flap (32) retractable and the drum (10) which has, for this purpose, and advantageously, a gripping surface. The strip is guided between the two drums (9 - 10) then, by the support effect of the upper flap, said strip partially winds the drum (9) to exit behind the latter. In the initial state, the cutting blade is integrated in its drum (9) without leaving. The return spring is not stressed in extension. During the traction of the material web by the user, the rotation of the drum (9) meshes with the drum (10) by the respective first and second rings (10-11). The third ring (19), adjacent to the first ring (11), causes the rotation of the fourth ring (20). The non-return pawl, penetrating into the teeth of the crown (20), blocks the mechanism in position by preventing a return to position. The fourth ring (20) is rotating. The point of attachment and attachment of the rod (42) moves away by causing the extension of the return means (26) to exceed a dead point corresponding to the maximum distance of the fixing point of the rod relative to at the fixed fixing point formed on the flange. The rotation of the toothed ring (10) simultaneously causes the rotation of the toothed ring (18) mounted on the blade arm, and thus the gradual output of the cutting blade from the drum (9). In practice, the output of the cutting blade takes place at the end of the second rotation of the drum (9) on itself, and in particular for a format of 25 centimeters. In the maximum dead point, the cutting blade is fully extended and exceeding the dead point causes the mechanism and the cutting blade to return to the initial position with the corresponding section of the material strip.
La rentrée de la lame de coupe s'effectue par le contact des deux dents (13.3) rapprochées près de la zone médiane du tambour. Ces deux dents viennent en contact perpendiculaire avec deux butées (41) réalisées en caoutchouc et qui permettent, par un effet de contre-appui, le basculement en arrière du porte-lame sur lui-même avec pivotement des lames et donc des dents jusqu'à leur rentrée dans le tambour (9).The re-entry of the cutting blade is effected by the contact of the two teeth (13.3) close to the central zone of the drum. These two teeth come into perpendicular contact with two abutments (41) made of rubber and which allow, by a counter-support effect, the tilting back of the blade holder on itself with pivoting blades and therefore teeth until upon their return to the drum (9).
S'agissant maintenant des deux cames fixe (24) et mobile (27) précitées, on a représenté, aux
Il convient maintenant d'exposer une autre disposition particulière de l'invention qui permet de faire varier le format de la bande de matériau à découper.It is now necessary to expose another particular provision of the invention that makes it possible to vary the format of the strip of material to be cut.
Une première possibilité consiste à disposer, sur le tambour (10), une couronne crantée (12) déterminée avec un nombre de dents approprié pour le format choisi, par exemple 25 centimètres. Cela correspond à la mise en oeuvre illustrée
Dans une variante de mise en oeuvre correspondant à une seconde possibilité, on a représenté,
Pour cela, le tambour (10) est aménagé différemment avec la réception d'un axe (10.1) mobile susceptible de recevoir un pignon baladeur (45). L'axe mobile (10.1) est coulissant axialement par rapport au tambour (10) en étant maintenu à ses deux extrémités, d'une part par le tambour lui-même, et d'autre part par une ouverture formée dans le flasque (4) précité. Ledit tambour est aménagé dans sa partie d'extrémité avec une cavité intérieure profilée permettant, d'une part, le logement et guidage de l'extrémité de l'axe (10.1) et, d'autre part, le logement de la couronne (19) dans une position déterminée. Ladite couronne (19) est solidaire de l'axe (10.1) mobile, mais dans un espace d'éloignement (1.e) par rapport au pignon baladeur (45).For this, the drum (10) is arranged differently with the reception of a movable shaft (10.1) capable of receiving a sliding pinion (45). The movable axle (10.1) is axially slidable with respect to the drum (10) while being held at its two ends, on the one hand by the drum itself, and on the other hand by an opening formed in the flange (4). ) above. Said drum is arranged in its end part with a profiled internal cavity allowing, on the one hand, the housing and guiding of the end of the axis (10.1) and, on the other hand, the housing of the crown ( 19) in a determined position. Said ring (19) is integral with the axis (10.1) movable, but in a spacing space (1.e) relative to the sliding pinion (45).
Par ailleurs, cette seconde mise en oeuvre nécessite un aménagement de la couronne crantée (20). Celle-ci est alors associée à une cinquième couronne (21) crantée présentant un nombre de dents différent de la couronne (20). Le crochet anti-retour (22) coopère avec la cinquième couronne (21), la came fixe (24) est solidarisée à la face intérieure de la couronne (21).Moreover, this second implementation requires an arrangement of the notched crown (20). This is then associated with a fifth ring (21) toothed having a number of teeth different from the ring (20). The check hook (22) cooperates with the fifth ring (21), the fixed cam (24) is secured to the inner face of the ring (21).
Par ailleurs, l'axe mobile (10.1) présente un doigt ou index radial (10.1b) qui constitue l'élément de poussée dudit axe pour présenter les pignons (45 et 19) de la manière appropriée, comme représenté aux
Dans cette mise en oeuvre, le mécanisme sélecteur nécessite un réglage préalable par l'opérateur.In this implementation, the selector mechanism requires a prior adjustment by the operator.
Les avantages ressortent bien de l'invention. On souligne la nouvelle conception de l'appareil distributeur qui offre, dans un volume réduit, une distribution automatique de bandes de matériau, et ce avec une simplification des mécanismes utilisés. La bobine peut être présentée par l'opérateur chargé de la maintenance dans n'importe quel sens dans l'appareil. Il peut être envisagé une conception standardisée de cartouches avec un ensemble de mécanismes permettant une distribution de formats, selon une première longueur, 25 centimètres par exemple, et une autre cartouche permettant, par des moyens adaptés, une distribution de matériau, selon un autre format, 37 centimètres par exemple. Il suffit alors de changer la cartouche. Les deux cartouches sont identiques à l'exclusion de l'une des couronnes dentées, à savoir la quatrième qui définit le nombre de dents en rapport avec le format du papier. En variante, un dispositif sélecteur peut être intégré dans la cartouche mais il nécessite alors à chaque fois des réglages, et donc des manipulations par l'opérateur.The advantages are apparent from the invention. It emphasizes the new design of the dispensing device which offers, in a small volume, an automatic distribution of strips of material, and this with a simplification of the mechanisms used. The coil can be presented by the maintenance operator in any direction in the device. It can be envisaged a standardized design of cartridges with a set of mechanisms allowing a distribution of formats, according to a first length, 25 centimeters for example, and another cartridge allowing, by suitable means, a distribution of material, in another format, 37 centimeters for example. Then just change the cartridge. The two cartridges are identical to the exclusion of one of the toothed crowns, namely the fourth which defines the number of teeth in relation to the paper format. Alternatively, a selector device can be integrated in the cartridge but it then requires each time adjustments, and therefore manipulations by the operator.
