Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Heftklammergerät gemäß Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a stapler according to the preamble of claim 1.

Bei bekannten Heftklammergeräten sind die Heftklammern in einem Klammermagazin aufgenommen, das zum Verheften von Schriftstücken auf den Ambossschenkel zu verschwenkt wird. Das Klammermagazin ist in ein Gehäuse aufgenommen und beispielsweise mit einer Kunststoffhaube als Abdeckung versehen, welche zudem als Handhebel beim Verschwenken des Klammermagazins zum Ambossschenkel dient. Im Betriebszustand des Heftklammergeräts ist daher der Füllstand des Klammermagazins nicht ohne weiteres ersichtlich. Aus der EP 0558542 B1 ist eine Füllstandsanzeige für ein Heftklammergerät bekannt. Diese weist eine mit dem Klammerschieber verbundene Feder auf, deren Federstreifen teilweise zu einer Spirale gewickelt sind, wobei die Spirale in einer festgelegten Position gehalten wird. Die Außenseite einer Federspirale ist im Betriebszustand des Heftklammergeräts von außen sichtbar und weist eine Markierung auf, welche sich beim Vorschub des Klammerschiebers und der damit verbundenen Abwicklung der Federspirale ändert und eine Änderung des Füllstands im Klammermagazin anzeigt. Diese Ausgestaltung ist jedoch technisch aufwendig und teuer zu fertigen.In known staple devices, the staples are received in a staple cartridge which is pivoted to staple documents on the anvil legs. The staple cartridge is accommodated in a housing and, for example, provided with a plastic cover as a cover, which also serves as a hand lever during pivoting of the staple cartridge to the anvil leg. In the operating state of the stapler, therefore, the level of the staple cartridge is not readily apparent. From the EP 0558542 B1 a level indicator for a stapler is known. This has a spring connected to the staple pusher, whose spring strips are partially wound into a spiral, wherein the spiral is held in a fixed position. The outside of a spring coil is visible in the operating state of the stapler from the outside and has a mark which changes during the advancement of the staple pusher and the associated development of the spring coil and indicates a change in the level in the staple magazine. However, this embodiment is technically complicated and expensive to manufacture.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Heftklammergerät der eingangs genannten Art derart weiterzubilden, dass der Füllstand des Klammermagazins auf einfachere Weise angezeigt werden kann.It is therefore an object of the invention to develop a stapler of the type mentioned in such a way that the level of the staple magazine can be displayed in a simpler manner.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch ein Heftklammergerät mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche.The object is achieved by a stapler with the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.

Der Erfindung liegt der Gedanke zugrunde, dass mittels einer oder mehrerer Schnüre eine einfache und zuverlässige Verbindung zwischen dem Klammerschieber und dem Anzeigeelement hergestellt werden kann. Eine aus der Abnahme des Füllstands des Klammermagazins resultierende Bewegung des Klammerschiebers wird dadurch in eine Bewegung des Anzeigeelements umgesetzt.The invention is based on the idea that by means of one or more cords a simple and reliable connection between the staple pusher and the display element can be produced. A resulting from the decrease in the level of the staple cartridge movement of the staple pusher is thereby converted into a movement of the display element.

Es ist möglich, dass die Kraftübertragungseinheit lediglich eine Schnur aufweist, die entweder direkt zwischen dem Klammerschieber und dem Anzeigeelement gespannt ist oder zwischen dem Klammerschieber und dem Anzeigeelement über eine Umlenkrolle geführt ist. Dabei ist das erste Ende der Schnur am Klammerschieber befestigt und das zweite Ende am Anzeigeelement. Vorteilhaft kommen jedoch zwei Schnüre zum Einsatz. Dabei ist zweckmäßig eine erste Schnur mit einem Endabschnitt an ihrem ersten Ende auf eine Rolle gewickelt und mit ihrem zweiten Ende am Klammerschieber befestigt und eine zweite Schnur ist mit einem Endabschnitt an ihrem ersten Ende auf die Rolle gewickelt und mit ihrem zweiten Ende am Anzeigeelement befestigt. Vorzugsweise weist die Rolle zwei koaxiale Partien auf, wobei die erste Schnur auf eine erste der Partien und die zweite Schnur auf eine zweite der Partien gewickelt ist. Die beiden Partien der Rolle können unterschiedliche Durchmesser aufweisen, so dass die Kraftübertragungseinheit eine Übersetzung aufweist. Zweckmäßig weist die erste Partie einen größeren Durchmesser auf als die zweite Partie. Eine Bewegung des Klammerschiebers um einen ersten Weg resultiert dann in einer Bewegung des Anzeigeelements um einen zweiten, kürzeren Weg. Dies ist insbesondere dann vorteilhaft, wenn das Heftklammergerät eine das Klammermagazin überdeckende Abdeckkappe mit einem Sichtfenster zum Betrachten des Anzeigeelements aufweist. Wenn das Anzeigeelement zwischen den beiden Anzeigen "voll" und "leer" lediglich einen kurzen Weg zurücklegt, können sowohl das Anzeigeelement als auch das Sichtfenster klein gehalten werden. Zweckmäßig ist das Anzeigeelement um eine Achse verschwenkbar gelagert.It is possible that the power transmission unit has only one string, which is either stretched directly between the staple pusher and the display element or is guided between the staple pusher and the display element via a deflection roller. In this case, the first end of the cord is attached to the staple pusher and the second end on the display element. Advantageously, however, two cords are used. In this case, a first cord is suitably wound with an end portion at its first end on a roll and fastened with its second end to the staple pusher and a second cord is wound with an end portion at its first end to the roll and fastened with its second end to the display element. Preferably, the roller has two coaxial portions, with the first cord wound on a first of the batches and the second cord wound on a second of the batches. The two parts of the roller may have different diameters, so that the power transmission unit has a translation. Suitably, the first batch has a larger diameter than the second batch. A movement of the staple pusher about a first path then results in a movement of the display element about a second, shorter path. This is particularly advantageous when the stapler a covering the staple cartridge cap with a viewing window for viewing the display element having. If the display element covers only a short distance between the two displays "full" and "empty", both the display element and the viewing window can be kept small. Suitably, the display element is mounted pivotably about an axis.

Ein Heftklammergerät 10 weist einen Ambossschenkel 12 auf, der an seiner Unterseite eine Aufstellfläche 14 zum Aufstellen beispielsweise auf einer Tischplatte aufweist. In seinem vorderen Bereich trägt der Ambossschenkel 12 eine Ambossplatte 16, während in seinem hinteren Bereich ein Lagerbock angebracht ist, in dem ein Klammermagazin 18 zum Ambossschenkel 12 begrenzt verschwenkbar gelagert ist. Das Heftklammergerät 10 weist ein Gehäuse 19 mit einer das Klammermagazin 18 überdeckenden Abdeckkappe 20 auf, die als Handhebel zum Niederdrücken des Klammermagazins 18 auf die Ambossplatte 16 beim Heftvorgang dient. Das Klammermagazin 18 weist an seinem vorderen Ende ein als Anschlagplatte 22 ausgebildetes Anschlagelement auf, gegen das die vorderste der in einer Aufnahmeeinheit 24 aufgenommenen Heftklammern mittels eines durch die Kraft einer Feder 26 beaufschlagten Klammerschiebers 28 angedrückt wird. Zwischen der Anschlagplatte 22 und der Aufnahmeeinheit 24 befindet sich ein Spalt 30, durch den mittels eines Treibers die jeweils vorderste Heftklammer auf die Ambossplatte 16 gedrückt wird. Im hinteren Bereich der Abdeckkappe 20 befindet sich ein Sichtfenster 32, durch das ein Anzeigeelement 34 sichtbar ist, das die Stellung des Klammerschiebers 28 und somit den Füllstand des Klammermagazins 18 anzeigt.A stapler 10 has an anvil leg 12, which has on its underside a footprint 14 for setting up, for example on a table top. In its front region, the anvil leg 12 carries an anvil plate 16, while in its rear region a bearing block is mounted in which a staple magazine 18 is mounted to the anvil limb 12 pivotally limited. The stapler 10 has a housing 19 with a cover magazine 20 covering the cap 20, which serves as a hand lever for depressing the staple magazine 18 on the anvil plate 16 during stapling. The staple magazine 18 has at its front end a stop element 22 designed as a stop element, against which the foremost of the received in a receiving unit 24 staples is pressed by means of a biased by the force of a spring 26 staple pusher 28. Between the stop plate 22 and the receiving unit 24 is a gap 30, by means of a driver, the respective foremost staple on the Anvil plate 16 is pressed. In the rear area of the cap 20 is a viewing window 32 through which a display element 34 is visible, which indicates the position of the staple pusher 28 and thus the level of the staple magazine 18.

Das Anzeigeelement (Fig. 3) ist ein an einer Achse 36 im Gehäuse 19 verschwenkbar gelagertes grün eingefärbtes Kunststoffteil. Unter dem Anzeigeelement 34 ist im Gehäuse 19 ein rot eingefärbtes Grundelement 38 im Bereich des Sichtfensters 32 ortsfest eingebaut. Bei einer Bewegung des Anzeigeelements 34, die aus einer Entleerung des Klammermagazins 18 resultiert, wird der Blick durch das Sichtfenster 32 auf das rote Grundelement 38 freigegeben, so dass die im Sichtfenster 32 sichtbare Anzeige sich von grün auf rot ändert. Das Anzeigeelement 34 ist mit dem Klammerschieber 28 mittels zweier Schnüre 40, 42 verbunden. Beide Schnüre 40, 42 sind mit einem Endabschnitt auf eine Rolle 44 gewickelt, die drehbar im Gehäuse 19 gelagert ist und zwei Partien 46, 48 aufweist. Beide Partien 46, 48 sind koaxial zueinander angeordnet. Auf die erste Partie 46 ist ein Endabschnitt der ersten Schnur 40 gewickelt, die mit ihrem anderen Ende am Klammerschieber 28 befestigt ist. Auf die zweite Partie 48 ist in entgegengesetzter Richtung ein Endabschnitt der zweiten Schnur 42 gewickelt, deren anderes Ende am Anzeigeelement 34 befestigt ist. Eine Bewegung des Klammerschiebers 28 nach vorne zur Anschlagplatte 22 resultiert in einer Abwicklung der ersten Schnur 40 von der Rolle 44 sowie einer Aufwicklung der zweiten Schnur 42 auf die Rolle 44, so dass das Anzeigeelement 34 gegenüber dem Grundelement 38 gegen die Kraft einer zwischen dem Anzeigeelement 34 und dem Grundelement 38 gespannten Feder 50 nach hinten schwenkt und im Bereich des Sichtfensters 32den Blick auf das rote Grundelement 38 freigibt. Wenn das Klammermagazin 18 wieder befüllt wird, wird der Klammerschieber 28 gegen die Kraft der Feder 26 nach hinten von der Anschlagplatte 22 weg verschoben. Dadurch wird die Spannung von den Schnüren 40, 42 genommen, und die Feder 50 bewirkt ein Vorschwenken des Anzeigeelements 34 bei gleichzeitigem Abwickeln der zweiten Schnur 42 und Aufwickeln der ersten Schnur 40.The display element ( Fig. 3 ) is a rotatably mounted on an axis 36 in the housing 19 green-colored plastic part. Under the display element 34, a red-colored base element 38 is installed in the housing 19 in the area of the viewing window 32 in a stationary manner. Upon movement of the display element 34 resulting from emptying of the staple magazine 18, the view is released through the viewing window 32 on the red base member 38 so that the display visible in the viewing window 32 changes from green to red. The display element 34 is connected to the staple pusher 28 by means of two cords 40, 42. Both cords 40, 42 are wound with an end portion on a roller 44 which is rotatably mounted in the housing 19 and two parts 46, 48 has. Both parts 46, 48 are arranged coaxially with each other. On the first lot 46 an end portion of the first cord 40 is wound, which is fastened with its other end to the staple pusher 28. On the second part 48, an end portion of the second cord 42 is wound in the opposite direction, the other end is attached to the display element 34. A movement of the staple pusher 28 forward to the stop plate 22 results in a development of the first cord 40 from the roller 44 and a winding of the second cord 42 on the roller 44, so that the display member 34 relative to the base member 38 against the force of a between the display element 34 and the base member 38 tensioned spring 50 pivots to the rear and the view of the red base member 38 releases in the region of the viewing window 32. When the staple cartridge 18 is refilled, the staple pusher 28 is displaced rearwardly away from the stopper plate 22 against the force of the spring 26. Thereby, the tension is taken from the cords 40, 42, and the spring 50 causes a Vorschwenken of the display element 34 while unwinding the second cord 42 and winding the first cord 40th
