Patent

CA 2306430

The invention concerns a machine for franking a flat object (6), such as an envelope or label, comprising a horizontal aperture for inserting an object leading to two right angled stops (8, 9), a device for maintaining an object by squeezing it between a fixed upper ceiling (2) comprising a window (2') and a lower plate (3) vertically movable by a driving element, an ink-jet printing device (1) whereof the spray nozzles are arranged inside said ceiling window (2'), and a sensor (10) for detecting the presence of an object in the proximity of the angle of the stops (8, 9) triggering the plate (3) driving mechanism for squeezing the object (6) and the printing cycle. A transverse power-driven rake (4) moves the object (6) while it is being held in front of the printing device (1).

The invention concerns a ma-chine for franking a flat object (6), such as an envelope or label, com-prising a horizontal aperture for in-serting an object leading to two right angled stops (8, 9), a de-vice for maintaining an object by squeezing it between a fixed up-per ceiling (2) comprising a window (2') and a lower plate (3) vertically movable by a driving element, an ink-jet printing device (1) whereof the spray nozzles are arranged in-side said ceiling window (2'), and a sensor (10) for detecting the pres-ence of an object in the proximity of the angle of the stops (8, 9) trig-gering the plate (3) driving mech-anism for squeezing the object (6) and the printing cycle. A trans-verse power-driven rake (4) moves the object (6) while it is being held in front of the printing device (1). Cette machine d'affranchissement d'objet plat (6), tel qu'une enveloppe ou une étiquette, comporte une ouverture horizontale d'insertion d'objet conduisant à deux butées (8, 9) à angle droit, un dispositif de maintien d'objet par pincement entre un plafond supérieur fixe (2) comportant une fenêtre (2') et un plateau inférieur (3) mobile verticalement grâce à un mécanisme d'entraînement, un dispositif d'impression à jet d'encre (1) dont les buses sont disposées à l'intérieur de la fenêtre (2') dudit plafond, et un capteur (10) de présence d'objet au voisinage de l'angle des butées (8, 9) déclenchant le mécanisme d'entraînement du plateau (3) pour le pincement de l'objet (6) et le cycle d'impression. Un râteau (4) motorisé transversal déplace l'objet (6) pendant son pincement devant le dispositif d'impression (1).
