Abstract
Description
本発明は、列車の座席指定券、各種予約券等の発行を行う発券機や券売機等の券類発行装置に用いられるインクリボンカセットの装填治具に関する。 The present invention relates to a loading jig for an ink ribbon cassette used in a ticket issuing device such as a ticket issuing machine or a ticket vending machine that issues a train seat designation ticket, various reservation tickets, and the like.
印字ヘッドと、該印字ヘッドに対向するプラテンとを有し、前記印字ヘッドと前記プラテンとの間の隙間にインクリボンを挿入することによってインクリボンを装填する従来の方法は、シート材を舌片状に形成した装填ガイドを、前記印字ヘッドとプラテンとの間の隙間に前記プラテンを覆うように挿入して設置し、この装填ガイドと前記印字ヘッドとの間の隙間に前記インクリボンを挿入し、その後に前記装填ガイドを引き抜くことによって装填している（例えば、特許文献１参照。）。
しかしながら、上述した従来の技術においては、インクリボンがたるんで折れ曲がる等の不良な状態で装填されないように、両手を使用してインクリボンをピンと張った状態にしてセットする必要があり、セット作業が非常にやりにくいという問題がある。
さらに、装置本体側のリボンシャフトにインクリボンカセットが確実にセットされず、ハーフセット状態となり、運用中にインクリボンが破断したり正常に巻き取られない等の問題もある。
However, in the above-described conventional technology, it is necessary to set the ink ribbon in a tensioned state using both hands so that the ink ribbon is not loaded in a bad state such as being bent and bent. There is a problem that it is very difficult to do.
In addition, the ink ribbon cassette is not securely set on the ribbon shaft on the apparatus main body side, so that the ink ribbon cassette is in a half-set state, and the ink ribbon is broken or not taken up normally during operation.
本発明は、上記の問題点を解決するためになされたもので、片手でしかも確実にインクリボンを装填することができる装填治具を提供することを目的とする。 The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and an object thereof is to provide a loading jig that can reliably load an ink ribbon with one hand.
そこで本発明は、インクリボンカセットの巻取り側と繰出し側の一対のコアに押し込む一対のシャフトがあり、このシャフトを所定の間隔で連結すると共に握り部となる取手部により一体に構成して装填治具としたことを特徴とする。 Accordingly, the present invention has a pair of shafts that are pushed into a pair of cores on the winding side and the feeding side of the ink ribbon cassette. It is characterized by having a tool.
これにより、本発明は、インクリボンカセットの巻取り側と繰出し側の両コアに装填治具のシャフトを当てて押し込むようにして取り付けることによって、コアが回転しなくなり、インクリボンのたるみも発生しない状態で装置本体のリボンシャフトにセットすることができ、両手を使用してインクリボンをピンと張った状態にしてセットする必要はなく、片手で簡単にセットすることが可能となるという効果が得られる。 Thus, the present invention is a state in which the core does not rotate and the ink ribbon does not sag by attaching the shaft of the loading jig so as to press against both the winding side and feeding side cores of the ink ribbon cassette. Thus, it is not necessary to set the ink ribbon in a tensioned state using both hands, and it is possible to easily set with one hand.
さらに、リボンシャフトの突起部がコアの溝部に確実に係止しなければ装填治具を引くとコアを介してインクリボンも動くためにインクリボンのセットが完了していないことが判断できてハーフセットを防止することができ、運用中のインクリボンの破断や巻取り不良を発生させないという効果を有する。 Furthermore, if the protruding portion of the ribbon shaft does not securely engage with the groove of the core, pulling the loading jig moves the ink ribbon through the core, so it can be determined that the setting of the ink ribbon has not been completed. Setting can be prevented, and there is an effect that the ink ribbon in operation does not break or take up poorly.
以下に、図面を参照して本発明の実施例について説明する。
図１は本発明の実施例を示す斜視図、図２はインクリボンカセットの斜視図、図３はインクリボンカセットの背面斜視図、図４は装置本体一部の説明図である。
図２、図３において、１はインクリボンカセット、２は一対のコアであり、回動可能に設けてあり、インクリボン３の巻取り側と繰出し側を構成している。
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of an ink ribbon cassette, FIG. 3 is a rear perspective view of the ink ribbon cassette, and FIG.
2 and 3, reference numeral 1 denotes an ink ribbon cassette, and 2 a pair of cores, which are rotatably provided and constitute a winding side and a feeding side of the ink ribbon 3.
したがって、図示する如く、インクリボン３のリボンロール芯４をインクリボンカセット１のコア２にセットしたときに、コア２を回してインクリボン３のたるみがない状態にしておく。
図４において、５は装置本体の一部を示し、６はリボンシャフトであり、数条の突起部７、リボンシャフト６と連動して回転する鍔部８およびインクリボンカセット１のコア２を係止するための係止部９が設けられている。
Accordingly, as shown in the drawing, when the ribbon roll core 4 of the ink ribbon 3 is set on the core 2 of the ink ribbon cassette 1, the core 2 is turned so that there is no slack in the ink ribbon 3.
In FIG. 4, 5 indicates a part of the apparatus main body, 6 is a ribbon shaft, and locks several protrusions 7, a collar portion 8 that rotates in conjunction with the ribbon shaft 6, and a core 2 of the ink ribbon cassette 1. A locking portion 9 is provided for this purpose.
コア２には、リボンシャフト６の突起部７と嵌合する孔部１０が設けられ、リボンシャフト６と連動して回転するように構成されている。
図１において、１１は装填治具であり、前記インクリボンカセット１の巻取り側と繰出し側の一対のコア２に押し込む一対のシャフト１２があり、このシャフト１２をコア２の間隔で連結すると共に握り部となる取手部１３により一体に構成されている。
The core 2 is provided with a hole 10 that fits with the protrusion 7 of the ribbon shaft 6, and is configured to rotate in conjunction with the ribbon shaft 6.
In FIG. 1, reference numeral 11 denotes a loading jig, which includes a pair of shafts 12 that are pushed into a pair of cores 2 on the winding side and the feeding side of the ink ribbon cassette 1. It is comprised integrally by the handle part 13 used as a part.
上記シャフト１２は、先端方向に向けてテーパ状になって先端に弾性をもたせるための切り込み１４を設けてコア２に挿入し易いようになっており、これによってコア２に押し込んでセットできるようになり、しかも、押し込んだ状態でガタつくようなことがなく、取手部１３を持ってもち上げても落ちることがないような寸法にしてある。
上述した構成におけるインクリボンの装填作用を説明する。
The shaft 12 is tapered toward the distal end and is provided with a notch 14 for imparting elasticity to the distal end so that it can be easily inserted into the core 2, so that the shaft 12 can be pushed into the core 2 and set. In addition, the size is such that it does not rattle in the pushed-in state and does not fall even if the handle portion 13 is held up.
The operation of loading the ink ribbon in the above configuration will be described.
まず、図５に示す如く、インクリボンカセット１を机の上等の平らなところに置き、装填治具１１を巻取り側と繰出し側の両コア２に当てて押し込むようにして取り付ける。こうすることによって、コア２が回転しなくなり、インクリボン３のたるみも発生しなくなる。
したがって、両手を使用してインクリボンをピンと張った状態にしてセットする必要はなく、片手で簡単にセットすることが可能となる。
First, as shown in FIG. 5, the ink ribbon cassette 1 is placed on a flat surface such as a desk, and the loading jig 11 is attached so as to be pressed against both the cores 2 on the winding side and the feeding side. By doing so, the core 2 does not rotate, and the ink ribbon 3 does not sag.
Therefore, it is not necessary to set the ink ribbon in a tensioned state using both hands, and it can be easily set with one hand.
つぎに、図６に示す如く、装填治具１１の取手部１３を持ってインクリボンカセット１を装置本体５に取り付ける。
このとき、リボンシャフト６の突起部７がコア２の孔部１０に挿入し、係止部９がコア２の外壁面に掛かるまで押し込むことによって嵌合（ロック）する。その後、取手部１３をゆっくり引き抜くことによって図７に示す如く、装填治具１１のみを取り外すことができ、インクリボンカセット１の装填が完了する。
Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the ink ribbon cassette 1 is attached to the apparatus main body 5 with the handle 13 of the loading jig 11.
At this time, the protrusion 7 of the ribbon shaft 6 is inserted into the hole 10 of the core 2 and is engaged (locked) by being pushed in until the locking portion 9 is hooked on the outer wall surface of the core 2. Thereafter, by slowly pulling out the handle portion 13, only the loading jig 11 can be removed as shown in FIG. 7, and the loading of the ink ribbon cassette 1 is completed.
しかし、図８に示す如く、リボンシャフト６の突起部７がコア２の孔部１０に確実に入って係止部９がコア２の外壁面に掛からない（ロックしていない。）場合、装填治具１１と一緒にコア２を介してインクリボン３も動いてしまい、インクリボンカセット１の取り付けは完了しない。
そして、この状態で取手部１３を持って引き抜くと、装填治具１１のみを取り外すことができず、インクリボンカセット１も共に動くために取り付け状態が完全でなくハーフセット状態であることがわかる。そこで、再度リボンシャフト６を確実に押し込んでリボンシャフト６の突起部７をコア２の孔部１０に掛けることとする。これによって、ハーフセットを防止することができることになる。
However, as shown in FIG. 8, when the protrusion 7 of the ribbon shaft 6 surely enters the hole 10 of the core 2 and the locking portion 9 does not hook on the outer wall surface of the core 2 (not locked), it is loaded. The ink ribbon 3 also moves through the core 2 together with the jig 11, and the attachment of the ink ribbon cassette 1 is not completed.
If the handle 13 is pulled out in this state, only the loading jig 11 cannot be removed, and the ink ribbon cassette 1 also moves, so that it can be seen that the attached state is not complete and is in a half set state. Therefore, it is assumed that the ribbon shaft 6 is pushed in again and the protrusion 7 of the ribbon shaft 6 is hooked on the hole 10 of the core 2. As a result, half set can be prevented.
