  • the free end 322, on the right in FIG. 1, forms a swivel joint for the actuating arm 323, which is connected in one piece together with the lever arm 325 carrying the handle 34 and can be pivoted about a horizontal axis of rotation 324 in a vertical plane.
  • the gripper arm 333 rests on a gripper support 164, which is articulated by means of a gripper support 163 on the angle lever 161 on the right side in FIG. 1, thus on the side shown in FIG. 2.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Selbstverkäufer-Anordnung für den Verkauf von Zeitungen oder Zeitschriften gemäss dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs.The present invention relates to a self-seller arrangement for the sale of newspapers or magazines according to the preamble of the independent claim.

Solche Anordnungen, die auch mit den Begriffen Gerät zur Ausgabe von Zeitungen, Zeitungsverkaufsautomat oder Zeitungsausgeber bezeichnet sind, sind schon seit längerem bekannt. Die Tatsache jedoch, dass sich diese Art Selbstverkäufer, die sonst zur Abgabe von Getränken oder anderen Gegenständen des täglichen Gebrauchs zu einem hohen Grad der Vollkommenheit entwikkelt wurden, nicht durchzusetzen vermochten, lässt darauf schllessen, dass entweder die Handhabung, die Betriebssicherheit oder auch beides zusammen weder den Kunden noch den Verkäuferwünschen in genügendem Mass entsprechen.Such arrangements, which are also referred to with the terms device for dispensing newspapers, newspaper vending machine or newspaper dispenser, have long been known. However, the fact that this type of self-seller, which was otherwise developed to a high degree of perfection for the delivery of beverages or other everyday items, could not be accepted, suggests that either handling, operational safety or both combined neither sufficiently meet the customers nor the seller's wishes.

Eine augenfällige Schwierigkeit beim selbsttätigen Verkauf von Zeitungen, Zeitschriften, Broschüren, Katalogen oder auch anderen gefalteten Papiergegenständen, wie Tragtaschen und dergleichen, besteht darin, dass diese Verkaufsartikel relativ grosse Abmessungen im Vergleich zur Materialstärke aufweisen. Beispielsweise sind bekanntlich Zeitungen von einem gängigen Format 47 x 33 cm in der Höhe einmal gefaltet, wenn sie in den Verkauf gelangen. Die Natur des dünnen Papiers führt dazu, dass die einzelnen Blätter leicht gegeneinander verschoben werden können. Wenn daher ein solches grossformatiges Paket von Papier durch einen Automaten so weit zu verschieben ist, dass ein für das Fassen genügender Bereich aus dem Gehäuse hervorschaut, braucht es einerseits einen Anpressdruck, damit das Paket loser Blätter als eine Einheit verschoben werden kann und anderseits sollte aber möglichst wenig Reibung zwischen dem restlichen Stapel und der abzugebenden Zeitung bestehen, damit durch die Ausgabe von einem Exemplar nicht das nachfolgende Exemplar Schaden leiden kann.An obvious difficulty in the automatic sale of newspapers, magazines, brochures, catalogs or other folded paper objects, such as carrier bags and the like, is that these sales items have relatively large dimensions compared to the material thickness. For example, as is well known, newspapers of a common format 47 x 33 cm are folded once in height when they go on sale. The nature of the thin paper means that the individual sheets can be easily shifted against each other. Therefore, if such a large-format package of paper can be moved by a machine so that an area sufficient for grasping can be seen from the housing, pressure is required on the one hand so that the package of loose sheets can be moved as a unit and on the other hand should there is as little friction as possible between the rest of the stack and the newspaper to be delivered, so that issuing one copy does not damage the next one.

Gemäss der DE-A-2 034 661 ist es bekannt geworden, die in einem Gehäuse auf einer mit Federn nach oben gedrückten Platte gestapelten Zeitungen an einem von einem Ausgabeschlitz im Gehäuse entfernten, hinteren Teil mit einem Bremselement zu haltern und mit einer, durch einen Hebel in rotierende Bewegung versetzte, nahe beim Ausgabeschlitz angeordneten, ortsfest gelagerten Walze die oberste Zeitung durch den Schlitz zu stossen. Die Walze ist mit Nadelspitzen versehen und erstreckt sich über die gesamte Breite der Zeitung. Ein offensichtlicher Nachteil besteht darin, dass die Walze zugleich die Gegenkraft für die Federn zum Hochschieben der Platte bilden muss, so dass eine Quetschung der Zeitung erfolgt und die Zeitung eher bei der Faltung geöffnet, denn als Ganzes aus dem Schlitz gestossen wird.According to DE-A-2 034 661 it has become known to hold the newspapers stacked in a housing on a plate which is pressed upwards with springs at a rear part removed from an output slot in the housing with a braking element and with one by one Lever in rotating motion, located near the output slot, fixed roller, pushing the top newspaper through the slot. The roller is equipped with needle tips and extends across the entire width of the newspaper. An obvious disadvantage is that the roller must also act as a counterforce for the springs to push the plate up, so that the newspaper is crushed and the newspaper is opened when it is folded, rather than being pushed out of the slot as a whole.

Dieser Nachteil ist gemäss der DE-A-2 503 596 behoben, indem nicht nur die Platte, auf der der Zeitungsstapel ruht, federnd nach oben gedrückt ist, sondern, dass auch die Ausgabevorrichtung verschieblich ist, derart, dass die Platte, der Support für die Ausgabevorrichtung und der Stapel federnd ausbalanciert sind, so dass die zuoberst liegende Zeitung praktisch auf konstantem Niveau gehaltert ist. Ferner sind Mittel vorhanden, mit denen die oberste Zeitung untergriffen wird, wenn die Ausgabe erfolgt. Ausserdem sind noch Anschlagschienen vorgesehen, gegen die der Stapel durch die Federn gepresst wird. Damit ist der Nachteil behoben, dass die Ausgabewalzen den Gegendruck für die Federn bilden müssen. Die Ausbildung der Ausgabevorrichtung, die benötigt wird, ist jedoch aufwendig, wenn die verschiedenen Bewegungsabläufe betrachtet werden, die von nur einer kurzen geradlinigen Bewegung eines Handgriffes ausgeführt werden müssen.This disadvantage is remedied according to DE-A-2 503 596 in that not only is the plate on which the stack of newspapers rests resiliently pushed up, but also that the dispensing device is displaceable in such a way that the plate, the support for the output device and the stack are resiliently balanced, so that the newspaper lying on top is kept practically at a constant level. Means are also available to access the top newspaper when it is issued. In addition, stop rails are also provided, against which the stack is pressed by the springs. This eliminates the disadvantage that the output rollers have to form the counter pressure for the springs. However, the design of the dispensing device that is required is complex if the various movement sequences are considered, which have to be carried out by only a short straight movement of a handle.

Eine weitere Anordnung ist im Dokument US-A-3 709 405 beschrieben. Am Auflagetisch ist eine Hebevorrichtung angebracht. Diese besteht aus einem horizontal angeordneten Haspel, der über dem Auflagetisch drehbar gelagert ist. Beidseitig an diesem Haspel ist je ein Kabel aufgewickelt, deren freie Enden am Auflagetisch befestigt sind. Der Haspel wird mittels des Ausgabehebels über eine Ratschenanordnung angetrieben und mittels einer Sperrklinke in der jeweiligen Lage fixiert. Die Ausgabe des obersten Exemplars durch einen Ausgabeschlitz im Gehäuse geschieht mit einem durch den Ausgabeheben in einer horizontalen Ebene geschwenkten Greifer mit federbelasteten Greifernadeln. Der Anpressdruck wird mit einem Gewicht erzeugt. Nachteilig an dieser Anordnung ist die gleichzeitige Betätigung von Haspel und Greifer durch den Ausgabehebel, indem der angehobene Auflagetisch einen erhöhten Druck von unten auf die Greifernadeln bewirkt, so dass diese in die Zeitung hineinstechen und beim Herausziehen aus dem Ausgabeschlitz kann dadurch die Zeitung zerrissen werden. Zudem muss der jeweilige Weg der Ratschenanordnung durch Verstellen einer Hebellänge auf die jeweilige Dicke der Zeitung eingestellt werden.Another arrangement is described in document US-A-3 709 405. A lifting device is attached to the support table. This consists of a horizontally arranged reel, which is rotatably mounted above the support table. A cable is wound on both sides of this reel, the free ends of which are attached to the support table. The reel is driven by the output lever via a ratchet arrangement and fixed in the respective position by means of a pawl. The delivery of the top copy through a delivery slot in the housing is done with a gripper swiveled in a horizontal plane by the delivery lift with spring-loaded gripper needles. The contact pressure is generated with a weight. A disadvantage of this arrangement is the simultaneous actuation of the reel and the gripper by the delivery lever, in that the raised support table causes an increased pressure from below on the gripper needles, so that they pierce the newspaper and when pulled out of the delivery slot, the newspaper can be torn. In addition, the respective path of the ratchet arrangement must be adjusted to the respective thickness of the newspaper by adjusting a lever length.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht demgemäss darin, bei einer Selbstverkäuferanordnung die Anhebung des Auflagetisches derart zu steuern, dass unabhängig von der Zeitungsdicke das zuoberst liegende Exemplar immer auf dieselbe Höhe angehoben wird, ohne dass Einstellarbeiten notwendig wären. Überdies sollen sich auch die Greifernadeln vom herausgeschobenen Exemplar abheben können, bevor der Kunde das Exemplar herausziehen kann, so dass die Gefahr des Zerreissens behoben ist.The object of the invention is accordingly in a self-seller arrangement to control the raising of the support table in such a way that, regardless of the newspaper thickness, the top copy is always raised to the same height without adjustment work being necessary. In addition, the gripper needles should also be able to stand out from the pushed-out specimen before the customer can pull the specimen out, so that the risk of tearing is eliminated.

Erfindungsgemäss wird dies bei einer Anordnung der eingangs genannten Art durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale im unabhängigen Patentanspruch erfüllt.According to the invention, this is achieved in an arrangement of the type mentioned at the outset by the characterizing features in the independent claim.

Nachfolgend wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung erläutert. In der Zeichnung zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 einen Grundriss auf einen Selbstverkäufer nach der Erfindung bei entfernter Deckplatte des Gehäuses,
  • Fig. 2 einen Seitenriss des Selbstverkäufers von rechts in Fig. 1 bei entfernter rechter Seitenwand betrachtet, und
  • Fig. einen Seitenriss gemäss Fig. 2, jedoch von links in Fig. 1 bei entfernter linker Seitenwand betrachtet.
An exemplary embodiment of the invention is explained below. The drawing shows:
  • 1 is a plan view of a self-seller according to the invention with the cover plate of the housing removed,
  • Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the self-seller viewed from the right in Fig. 1 with the right side wall removed, and
  • FIG. 1 shows a side elevation according to FIG. 2, but viewed from the left in FIG. 1 with the left side wall removed.

Das Gehäuse 1 des Selbstverkäufers besteht aus Boden, Rückwand, zwei Seitenwänden und einer Deckwand. Eine Frontplatte 10 ist an der Bodenplatte mittels eines Scharniers 116 angelenkt und bildet zusammen mit einem von der Deckwand aus nach unten ragenden Flansch einen Entnahmeschlitz 11 für Zeitungen oder dergleichen. In der Frontplatte 10 befinden sich alle Bedienungselemente für die Betätigung und Wartung des Selbstverkäufers, wie die Schlitze 110, 111 und 112 für den Geldeinwurf, nämlich für beispielsweise Zehner, Zwanziger und Fünfziger, selbstverständlich könnten noch weitere Schlitze für grössere Geldstücke oder diese für andere Einheiten bemessen sein. Ein Rückgabeknopf und die zugehörige Rückgabeschale 115, ein Verriegelungsschloss 114 sowie eine Leer-Anzeige 117, befinden sich ebenfalls in der Frontplatte 10. Ein Handgriff 34 mit einem Hebelarm erstreckt sich nach bekannter Art durch einen vertikalen Schlitz in der Frontplatte.The housing 1 of the self-seller consists of a floor, rear wall, two side walls and a top wall. A front plate 10 is hinged to the base plate by means of a hinge 116 and, together with a flange projecting downward from the top wall, forms a removal slot 11 for newspapers or the like. In the front panel 10 are all controls for the operation and maintenance of the self-seller, such as the slots 110, 111 and 112 for inserting money, namely for tens, twenties and fifties, of course, other slots for larger coins or these for other units could be measured. A return button and the associated return tray 115, a locking lock 114 and an empty display 117 are also located in the front panel 10. A handle 34 with a lever arm extends through a vertical slot in the front panel in a known manner.

Für die Auflage der Zeitungen ist ein Auflagetisch 13 mittels Schienen 133 und Schlitten 132, die rechts und links des Tisches 13 angeordnet sind, höhenverschieblich angeordnet. Die beiden Schlitten 132 sind mit einem Tischträger 131 miteinander verbunden. Die Schienen 133 sind abgewinkelte Flansche eines Montagebleches 134, auf dem alle die Ausgabe der Zeitung selbst betreffenden Vorrichtungen gehaltert sind.For the support of the newspapers, a support table 13 is arranged such that it can be displaced in height by means of rails 133 and slides 132, which are arranged on the right and left of the table 13. The two slides 132 are connected to one another by a table carrier 131. The rails 133 are angled flanges of a mounting plate 134 on which all devices relating to the output of the newspaper itself are mounted.

Der Auflagetisch 13 ist an Flaschenzügen 14 aufgehängt, die ebenfalls beidseitig angeordnet sind. Die als Kettenflaschenzüge ausgebildeten Hebezeuge bestehen je aus einer an einem ortsfesten Drehlager 144 drehbar gelagerten Umlenkkettenrolle 141, einer Flasche mit einer Flaschenkettenrolle 142 und einer Kette, die einerseits am Schlitten 132 des Tisches 13 und anderseits an einem festen Punkt oben am Montageblech 134 befestigt ist. Die beiden Flaschen mit den Flaschenkettenrollen 142 sind mit einer Zugfeder 18 nach unten gezogen. Die beiden Zugfedern 18 müssen zusammen eine solche Kraft aufbringen, damit der mit Zeitungen vollbeladene Auflagetisch 13 sicher angehoben wird. Damit beim Einfüllen der Zeitungen der Tisch nicht hinuntergedrückt werden muss, sind die Zugfedern 18 je an einem drehbar gelagerten Winkelhebel 161 befestigt, der mit einem angelenkten Zughebel 162 ebenfalls gelenkig an der Frontplatte 10 befestigt ist. Wenn somit die Frontplatte 10 um das Scharnier 116 als Drehpunkt im Gegenuhrzeigersinn nach unten geklappt wird, drehen sich die Winkelhebel 161 um die gehäusefesten Drehlager 165 und die Federn 18 werden gespannt, so dass der Auflagetisch 13 infolge seines Eigengewichtes um die doppelte Höhe der Anhebung der Fusspunkte der Federn 18 abgesenkt wird. Durch das Schliessen der Frontplatte 10 werden die Federn 18 gespannt und damit der Auflagetisch 13 auf die richtige Höhe angehoben.The support table 13 is suspended from pulleys 14, which are also arranged on both sides. The hoists designed as chain block hoists each consist of a deflection chain roller 141 rotatably mounted on a fixed pivot bearing 144, a bottle with a bottle chain roller 142 and a chain which is fastened on the slide 132 of the table 13 on the one hand and at a fixed point on the mounting plate 134 on the other hand. The two bottles with the bottle chain rollers 142 are pulled down with a tension spring 18. The two tension springs 18 must apply such a force together so that the support table 13 fully loaded with newspapers is safely raised. So that the table does not have to be pressed down when the newspapers are filled in, the tension springs 18 are each fastened to a rotatably mounted angle lever 161, which is also articulated to the front plate 10 with an articulated pull lever 162. Thus, if the front plate 10 is folded down about the hinge 116 as a pivot point in the counterclockwise direction, the angle levers 161 rotate about the pivot bearings 165 fixed to the housing and the springs 18 are tensioned, so that the support table 13 due to its own weight increases twice the height of the Base points of the springs 18 is lowered. By closing the front plate 10, the springs 18 are tensioned and thus the support table 13 is raised to the correct height.

Die Einstellung dieser richtigen Höhe erfolgt mittels eines Abtasters 19, mit einem an einem Drehlager 191 am Montageblech 134 gelagerten Abtasterarm 192, einen an dessen freiem Ende befestigten Abtasterfühler 193 und einen an einem Punkt auf dem Abtasterarm 192 nahe bei der Umlenkkettenrolle 141 angeordneten Abtasterstift 194 zum Eingriff in die Zahlung einer der beiden Umlenkrollen 141. Indem die ortsfesten Lagerungen der beiden Umlenkkettenrollen 141 eine durchgehende Achse 144 ist, wie in Fig. 1 zu erkennen ist, können beide Flaschenzüge 14 mittels des Abtasterstiftes 194 in gleicher Weise stillgesetzt werden. Der Abtasterfühler 193 ist, wie ebenfalls aus Fig. 1 ersichtlich, oberhalb der linken vorderen Ecke des Auflagetisches 13 angeordnet. Wenn nun der Auflagetisch 13 mit oder ohne daraufgelegte Zeitungen durch die Flaschenzüge hochgehoben wird, so können mit dem beschriebenen Abtaster 19 die Flaschenzüge 14 nur so lange wirken, bis der Abtasterfühler 193 angehoben wird und damit auch der Abtasterstift 194 zum Eingriff mit der Umlenkkettenrolle 141 kommt. Somit gelangen die Federn 18 nur so lange zur Wirkung, wie der Auflagetisch in Bewegung ist, danach haben die Federn 18 keine Wirkung mehr. Sie können deshalb nach der von Ihnen verlangten Kraft zum Anheben eines vollbeladenen Auflagetisches bemessen werden, ohne dass sie das Ausgeben einer verkauften Zeitung beeinträchtigen können.This correct height is set by means of a scanner 19, with a scanner arm 192 mounted on a rotary bearing 191 on the mounting plate 134, a scanner sensor 193 attached to the free end thereof and a scanner pin 194 arranged at a point on the scanner arm 192 close to the deflection chain roller 141 Intervention in the payment of one of the two deflection rollers 141. Since the fixed bearings of the two deflection chain rollers 141 are a continuous axis 144, as can be seen in FIG. 1, both pulleys 14 can be stopped in the same way by means of the scanner pin 194. The scanner sensor 193, as can also be seen in FIG. 1, is arranged above the left front corner of the support table 13. If the support table 13 is now lifted up by the pulley blocks with or without newspapers placed on it, the pulley block 14 can only act with the scanner 19 described until the scanner sensor 193 is raised and thus the scanner pin 194 also comes into engagement with the deflection chain roller 141 . Thus, the springs 18 only come into effect as long as the support table is in motion, after which the springs 18 no longer have any effect. They can therefore be measured according to the force you require to lift a fully loaded table, without affecting the output of a newspaper sold.

Aus Fig. 1 und 2 lässt sich der Aufbau des Greifers 33 entnehmen. Der Greifer 33 mit einem Greiferarm 333 und einer Greiferklinke 331 ist um eine horizontale Achse in der Höhe verschwenkbar. Diese Achse wird durch einen Schwenkarm 32 gebildet, dessen eines Ende 326, das sich in Fig. 1 links befindet, an einer vertikalen Drehachse 321 angelenkt ist, so dass der Schwenkhebel 32 horizontal um diesen Punkt schwenkbar ist. Diese vertikale Drehachse ist am Montageblech 134 befestigt. Das freie Ende 322, rechts in Fig. 1, bildet ein Drehgelenk für den Betätigungsarm 323, der zusammen mit dem den Handgriff 34 tragenden Hebelarm 325 einstückig verbunden ist und um eine horizontale Drehachse 324 in einer vertikalen Ebene schwenkbar ist.The structure of the gripper 33 can be seen from FIGS. 1 and 2. The gripper 33 with a gripper arm 333 and a gripper pawl 331 can be pivoted in height about a horizontal axis. This axis is formed by a pivot arm 32, one end 326 of which is located on the left in FIG. 1, is articulated on a vertical axis of rotation 321, so that the pivot lever 32 can be pivoted horizontally about this point. This vertical axis of rotation is attached to the mounting plate 134. The free end 322, on the right in FIG. 1, forms a swivel joint for the actuating arm 323, which is connected in one piece together with the lever arm 325 carrying the handle 34 and can be pivoted about a horizontal axis of rotation 324 in a vertical plane.

Wenn somit der Handgriff 34 betätigt wird, d.h. nach unten bewegt wird, beschreibt das Ende 322 des Schwenkhebels 32 einen Kreisbogen um die Drehachse 324 als Mittelpunkt. Als Folge davon wird der Greifer 33 auch bewegt und dieser beschreibt einen Kreisbogen um die vertikale Drehachse 321 als Kreismittelpunkt.Thus, when the handle 34 is operated, i.e. is moved downward, the end 322 of the pivot lever 32 describes an arc around the axis of rotation 324 as the center. As a result, the gripper 33 is also moved and this describes an arc around the vertical axis of rotation 321 as the center of the circle.

Der Greiferarm 333 ruht auf einer Greiferauflage 164 auf, die mittels einer Greiferstütze 163 am Winkelhebel 161 auf der rechten Seite in Fig. 1, somit auf der in Fig. 2 dargestellten Seite, gelenkig verbunden ist. Mittels eines Bolzens 165 seitlich in der Montageplatte 134 und mit einem Langloch 166 in der Greiferstütze 163 wird diese geführt, derart, dass beim Öffnen der Frontplatte 10 infolge des Schwenkens des Winkelhebels 161 die Greiferstütze 163 und damit die Greiferauflage 164 nach oben bewegt wird, wodurch auch der Greiferarm 333 um den Schwenkhebel 32 als Drehachse nach oben bewegt wird. Diese Bewegung hat den Zweck, den Greifer 33, insbesondere die Greiferklinke 331 mit den Greifernadeln 332 aus dem Raum für die Zeitungen hinaus und in eine geschützte Zone unterhalb der Deckwand zu bewegen, damit einerseits die Greiferklinke 331 beim Beladen des Auflagetisches nicht beschädigt werden kann und anderseits keine Verletzungsgefahr für die Bedienungsperson bildet.The gripper arm 333 rests on a gripper support 164, which is articulated by means of a gripper support 163 on the angle lever 161 on the right side in FIG. 1, thus on the side shown in FIG. 2. By means of a bolt 165 laterally in the mounting plate 134 and with an elongated hole 166 in the gripper support 163, this is ge leads, such that when the front plate 10 is opened, the gripper support 163 and thus the gripper support 164 are moved upward as a result of the pivoting of the angle lever 161, as a result of which the gripper arm 333 is also moved upward about the pivot lever 32 as the axis of rotation. This movement has the purpose of moving the gripper 33, in particular the gripper pawl 331 with the gripper needles 332, out of the space for the newspapers and into a protected zone below the top wall, so that on the one hand the gripper pawl 331 cannot be damaged when loading the support table and on the other hand, no risk of injury to the operator.

Der Greifer 33 umfasst noch einen Elektromagneten 338 zum Auslösen der Greiferklinke 331, wenn der richtige Verkaufspreis bezahlt wurde. Der Anker des Elektromagneten 338 ist mit einer Auslösestange 339 verbunden, die mittels einer Auflage 340 geführt ist. Eine Feder 334 zieht die Auslösestange 339 gegen die Greiferklinke 331, die mittels einer horizontalen Achse 335 im Greiferarm 333 höhenverschwenkbar gelagert ist. Auf der den Greifernadeln 332 abgewandten Seite weist die Greiferklinke 331 eine Rückführfeder 336 und einen Fangbügel 337 auf.The gripper 33 also includes an electromagnet 338 for triggering the gripper pawl 331 when the correct sales price has been paid. The armature of the electromagnet 338 is connected to a release rod 339 which is guided by means of a support 340. A spring 334 pulls the trigger rod 339 against the gripper pawl 331, which is mounted in the gripper arm 333 so that it can be pivoted in height by means of a horizontal axis 335. On the side facing away from the hook needles 332, the hook pawl 331 has a return spring 336 and a catch bracket 337.

In Ruhelage liegt die Auslösestange 339 auf dem Fangbügel 337 und hält die Greiferklinke 331 in horizontaler bis leicht nach oben gerichteter Lage. Wird der Elektromagnet 338 betätigt, so zieht dieser die Auslösestange 339 zurück und die Greiferklinke 331 dreht sich unter der Schwerkraft im Gegenuhrzeigersinn, so dass die Greifernadeln auf die oben liegende Zeitung auftreffen. Oberhalb des Fangbügels 337 befindet sich die Rückführfeder 336, die beim Verdrehen des Greiferarmes 333 in die Ausfahrstellung durch ein Auflaufblech 101 am Gehäuse, das z.B. die Oberlippe des Ausgabeschlitzes 11 ist, nach unten gedrückt wird, bis die Auslösestange 339 mit dem Fangbügel 337 in Eingriff gelangt.In the rest position, the release rod 339 lies on the catch bracket 337 and holds the gripper pawl 331 in a horizontal to slightly upward position. If the electromagnet 338 is actuated, it pulls the release rod 339 back and the gripper pawl 331 rotates counterclockwise under the force of gravity, so that the gripper needles hit the newspaper lying on top. Above the catch bracket 337 there is the return spring 336 which, when the gripper arm 333 is rotated into the extended position, by a ramp plate 101 on the housing, which e.g. the upper lip of the discharge slot 11 is pressed down until the release rod 339 engages with the catch bracket 337.

Die Rückstellung des Handgriffes 34 erfolgt mittels einer Rückstellfeder 328, deren Fusspunkt sich am Gehäuse befindet. Am Hebelarm 325 ist ein Kipphebel 329 befestigt, der eine Betätigungsstange zur Kassierstation 15 bildet. Somit, wenn der Handgriff 34 nach unten bewegt wird, kippt auch der Kipphebel 329 und betätigt die Geldeinnahme in der Kassierstation 15.The handle 34 is reset by means of a return spring 328, the base of which is located on the housing. A rocker arm 329 is attached to the lever arm 325 and forms an actuating rod for the cashier station 15. Thus, when the handle 34 is moved downward, the rocker arm 329 also tilts and actuates the cash collection in the cashier station 15.

Die Funktionsweise dieses Selbstverkäufers ist sehr einfach. Zum Einfüllen wird die Frontplatte 10 um das Scharnier 116 nach vorn unten geschwenkt. Damit wird der Fusspunkt der Federn 18 für das Hochziehen des Auflagetisches 13 angehoben und der Tisch 13 wird abgesenkt. Gleichzeitig wird auch der Greifer 33 durch die Greiferstütze 163 hochgehoben, so dass der Aufnahmeraum für die Zeitungen frei ist. Durch Hochheben der Geldrückgabeschale 129 wird die Kasse in der Kassierstation 15 zugänglich und kann gegen eine leere Kasse ausgetauscht werden. Nachdem auch die Zeitungen auf den Tisch 13 gelegt sind, wird die Frontplatte 10 hochgeschwenkt und verschlossen. Der Selbstverkäufer ist damit betriebsbereit.The way this self-seller works is very simple. For filling, the front plate 10 is pivoted downwards about the hinge 116. This raises the base of the springs 18 for lifting the support table 13 and the table 13 is lowered. At the same time, the gripper 33 is also lifted up by the gripper support 163, so that the receiving space is free for the newspapers. By lifting the money return tray 129, the cash register in the cashier station 15 is accessible and can be exchanged for an empty cash register. After the newspapers have also been placed on the table 13, the front plate 10 is pivoted up and closed. The self-seller is now ready for use.

Wenn ein Kunde den notwendigen Geldbetrag mittels der vorgesehenen Geldstücke eingeworfen hat, wobei die Geldstücke beispielsweise durch Kalibrierung geprüft wurden, schliessen dieselben einen Strompfad und erzeugen damit einen Impuls. Dieser Impuls wird in einer elektronischen Zählvorrichtung (nicht dargestellt) ausgewertet und wenn der vorgesehene Betrag erkannt wurde, wird mit einem elektrischen Impuls der Magnet 339 im Greifer 33 erregt und die Greiferklinke 331 fällt mit ihren Greifernadeln 332 auf die oberste Zeitung. Mit dem Rückgabeknopf 113 kann ein Rückstellsignal für die elektronische Zählvorrichtung erzeugt werden. Wenn nun also der Handgriff 34 betätigt wird, wird der Greiferarm 333 um seinen Drehpunkt 326 am Ende des Schwenkhebels 32 gedreht und die Greifernadeln 332 stossen die Zeitung ebenfalls in einem Kreisbogen mit dem Mittelpunkt beim Abtasterfühler 193 aus dem Ausgabeschlitz 11. Dort erscheint eine Ecke der Zeitung, die gefasst und daran die Zeitung daraufhin hinausgezogen werden kann. Der Greiferarm geht dann wieder zurück. Die Greiferklinke unterfährt das Auffahrblech 101 mit der Rückführfeder 336 und dies stellt die Greiferklinke wieder in die Ausgangslage. Indem durch die fehlende Zeitung der Abtasterarm 192 nach unten fällt, gibt der Abtasterstift 194 das Kettenrad 141 frei und der Zeitungsstapel wird durch die Kraft der Feder 18 angehoben bis zum Abtastfühler 193, der nun den Abtasterarm 192 anhebt und damit auch den Abtasterstift 194 in das Kettenrad 141 eingreifen lässt, wodurch die Federkraft nicht mehr wirken kann. Indem die Zeitung nur an einem Punkt, nämlich beim Abtasterfühler 193 gepresst wird, ergibt sich damit ein idealer Drehpunkt für die Drehbewegung der Zeitung, wenn der Greifer 33 die kreisbogenförmige Herausgabebewegung ausführt.When a customer has inserted the necessary amount of money using the intended pieces of money, the pieces of money being checked, for example, by calibration, they close a current path and thus generate an impulse. This pulse is evaluated in an electronic counting device (not shown) and when the intended amount has been recognized, the magnet 339 in the gripper 33 is excited with an electrical pulse and the gripper pawl 331 falls on the top newspaper with its gripper needles 332. A reset signal for the electronic counting device can be generated with the return button 113. If the handle 34 is now actuated, the gripper arm 333 is rotated about its pivot point 326 at the end of the pivoting lever 32 and the gripper needles 332 also push the newspaper out of the output slot 11 in a circular arc with the center at the scanner sensor 193. There a corner of the appears Newspaper that can be gripped and the newspaper can then be pulled out. The gripper arm then goes back. The gripper pawl moves under the ramp 101 with the return spring 336 and this returns the gripper pawl to the starting position. Since the scanner arm 192 falls down due to the missing newspaper, the scanner pin 194 releases the sprocket 141 and the newspaper stack is raised by the force of the spring 18 up to the scanner sensor 193, which now lifts the scanner arm 192 and thus also the scanner pin 194 into it Sprocket 141 can engage, whereby the spring force can no longer act. By pressing the newspaper only at one point, namely at the scanner sensor 193, there is thus an ideal fulcrum for the rotary movement of the newspaper when the gripper 33 executes the circular arc-shaped delivery movement.

Gemäss Fig. kann eine Vorrichtung zur Anzeige, ob noch Zeitungen vorhanden sind oder nicht, vorgesehen sein. Dies kann im einfachsten Fall eine Fallklappe sein, die auf einem Anzeigeschenkel 117 mit LEER beschriftet sein kann und an einer Stütze 118 an der Frontplatte 10 drehbar befestigt wäre. Ein Abtastschenkel 119 würde dann am Falz der Zeitung aufliegen, derart, dass, wenn die letzte Zeitung entnommen wäre, der Abtastschenkel 119 nach unten fallen würde und in einem Anzeigefeld in der Frontplatte 10 das Wort LEER erscheint.According to FIG. 1, a device for displaying whether newspapers are still present or not can be provided. In the simplest case, this can be a drop flap, which can be labeled with EMPTY on a display leg 117 and would be rotatably attached to a support 118 on the front plate 10. A scanning leg 119 would then rest on the fold of the newspaper in such a way that, if the last newspaper had been removed, the scanning leg 119 would fall down and the word EMPTY appears in a display field in the front plate 10.
