Integrated civil service document issuance machine capable of automatic alignment of printer and binder

Abstract

The present invention relates to an integrated civil service document issuance machine (manual machine) installed in a community self-governance center or district office and used for issuing civil service documents. Inside the issuance machine cabinet (12), an upper shelf (30) loaded with a binder (10) and a lower shelf (40) loaded with a printer (20) are provided. These upper and lower shelves (30, 40) can be pulled out in a sliding manner forward by opening the door (70) on the front of the cabinet (1), thereby allowing for the replenishment of paper, ink, and binder cores, or the inspection of the machine. When issuing civil service documents, if the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) inside the cabinet (1) are not in the correct position, the paper output port of the printer (20) and the paper input port of the binder (10) are not aligned, causing a jamming phenomenon during the paper transport process. Therefore, a push rod (90, 100) is provided inside the door (70) to push the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) into the correct position. Even if the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) are not fully pushed in, simply closing the door (70) causes the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) to be pushed and fixed in place, thereby allowing the paper output port of the printer (20) and the paper input port of the binder (10) to be automatically aligned.

Description

Background Technology

[0001] When issuing various documents requested by a citizen at a community center or city, county, or district office, the present invention requires that the upper and lower shelves, on which the printer and the printer are placed inside the integrated civil service issuance machine cabinet be accurately aligned in place so that the paper printed from the lower printer can be smoothly transported through the rear or upper paper output port to the rear or bottom paper inlet port on the side of the printer on the upper shelf. However, if the cabinet door is closed without pushing the upper and lower shelves into the correct position, alignment between the printer and the printer is not achieved, causing problems with smooth paper transport. To resolve this, the invention ensures that the two upper and lower shelves are fixed in the correct position solely by closing the front door of the integrated civil service issuance machine cabinet.

[0003] According to the applicant's search, no prior art related to the interlocking structure between a door and a shelf was found in the field of integrated civil service issuance machines related to the present invention. Instead, some prior art was found that prevents damage to the shelf by allowing the shelf to slide in conjunction when the door is opened in a refrigerator, etc., or by allowing the shelf to be pushed and closed when the door is closed, as in Patent Documents 1 to 4.

[0005] Meanwhile, since employees at community centers or city, county, and district offices using integrated civil service document issuance machines rotate their duties on a regular basis, when a new employee takes over the task, if they are unfamiliar with the machine's operation—specifically, when opening the door to inspect the printer or binder installed inside the cabinet or to replenish paper, ink, or staples—and pulling out the upper and lower shelves outward, they often close the door without fully pushing the shelves back into place. When civil service documents are issued in this state, the paper output port of the printer on the lower shelf and the paper input port of the binder (authenticator) on the upper shelf are not accurately aligned, resulting in frequent paper jams as described above. Consequently, work efficiency is reduced, and there are cumbersome issues such as the employee having to contact the machine manufacturer every time to resolve the problem. It is.

[0008] The present invention has been devised to solve the aforementioned problems, and the objective of the present invention is to provide an integrated civil service issuance machine with an improved structure that allows the two shelves to be pushed into the correct position by the operation of closing the door of the integrated civil service issuance machine so that when paper printed from the printer inside the integrated civil service issuance machine is bound (or passed) in the binder and discharged to the outside, the upper and lower shelves in which the printer and binder are placed inside the cabinet of the integrated civil service issuance machine can be maintained in a state of being accurately aligned in place. means of solving the problem

[0010] To achieve the above-mentioned objective, the present invention relates to an integrated civil service document issuance machine in which upper and lower shelves, each housing a printer and a binder respectively, are installed inside a cabinet so as to be slidably pulled out by a rail, a door is hinged to one side of the front of the cabinet, and a lock is provided on the other side of the door;

[0011] An integrated civil service document issuance machine capable of automatic alignment of a printer and a binder is provided, wherein a push rod for pushing the upper and lower shelves is attached to the inside of the door, and when the door is closed, the push rod is pushed into contact with the front of the upper or lower shelf to move it to the correct position.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the push rod comprises a fixed bracket attached to the inner surface of the door, a rod body detachably fixed to the fixed bracket, and a contact roller rotatably fixed to the tip of the rod body, wherein the contact roller is made of a soft synthetic resin or silicone or rubber material having a predetermined elasticity. Effects of the invention

[0015] According to the present invention described above, an upper shelf in which a binder is placed and a lower shelf in which a printer is placed are slidably installed inside the cabinet of an integrated civil service document issuance machine, and a push rod is attached to the inner side of the door to push the upper and lower shelves inward into the correct position, so that even if the shelves are not fully pushed in after opening the cabinet door and pulling out the upper and lower shelves to perform tasks such as inspection or replenishing paper or binder cores, simply closing and locking the door causes the push rod to push the upper or lower shelf into the correct position, thereby aligning the binder and printer placed on the upper and lower shelves in the correct position, thus providing a useful effect of simply resolving the problem of paper jamming during transport.

Specific details for implementing the invention

[0018] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention that do not limit the invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings.

[0019] FIGS. 1 to 6 show actual photographs and enlarged drawings of the main parts of an integrated civil service document issuance machine according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0020] As can be seen from the photos and drawings, the integrated civil service issuance machine according to the present invention has upper and lower shelves (30, 40) installed inside a cabinet (1) such that a binder (10) and a printer (20) are respectively placed therein and can be slidably pulled out by rails (50, 60), and a door (70) is connected to one side of the front of the cabinet (1) by a hinge (H), and a lock (80) is provided on the other side of the door (70). In the integrated civil service issuance machine, a push rod (90, 100) for pushing the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) is attached inside the door (70), so that when the door (70) is closed, the push rod (90, 100) contacts the front of the upper or lower shelf (30, 40) and pushes inward, thereby aligning the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) in the correct position.

[0022] In the drawing, reference numeral 72 is a civil complaint document discharge port formed on the outside of the door (70), reference numeral 74 is an auxiliary door for operating the paper input section provided in the printer (20) on the inside from the outside, and reference numeral H is a hinge connecting the cabinet (1) and the door (70).

[0024] FIG. 2 shows the state in which the front door (70) of the cabinet (1) is fully opened and the lower shelf (40) on which the printer (20) is placed is slid outward, and FIG. 3 shows the state in which the lower shelf (40) is pushed inward and the door (70) is closed again. The upper and lower shelves (30, 40) are equipped with lock buttons (32, 42) and handles (34, 44) on their fronts. When an administrator wants to pull out the shelves (30, 40), they can pull forward while holding the handles (34, 44) and pressing the lock buttons (32, 42), causing the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) to slide outward. When they want to return them to their original position, they can push inward while holding the handles, causing the locking mechanism inside the lock buttons (32, 42) to engage, thereby maintaining the position in alignment.

[0026] Meanwhile, although lock buttons (32, 42) and handles (34, 44) were provided on the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) in the past, it was common for an administrator to pull the shelves (30, 40) outward, roughly push them back to their original position, close the door (70), and issue civil service documents. As a result, the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) were not in the correct position and the locking mechanism inside the lock buttons (32, 42) was not engaged. Consequently, the positional alignment between the binder (10) and the printer (20) placed on the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) was not achieved, causing the paper output port (not shown) of the printer (20) and the paper input port of the binder (10) to be misaligned, which caused problems during the paper transport process.

[0028] The present invention simply resolves these problems by allowing the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) to be pushed inward and return to their original positions to maintain an aligned state simply by closing the door (70), and by engaging the locking hooks (32, 42) inside the locking buttons (30, 40) provided on the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) to fix them in the correct positions, thereby ensuring positional alignment between the binder (10) and the printer (20) placed on the upper and lower shelves (30, 40), so that no problems occur in the transport of paper.

[0029] That is, in this embodiment, push rods (90, 100) are respectively attached to the upper and lower inner sides of the door (70) in front of the cabinet (1) at positions corresponding to the front of the upper and lower shelves (30, 40). After pulling the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) forward to replenish paper or ink, replenish binding cores, or inspect the printer and binding machine, the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) are roughly pushed back inward, and the door (70) is closed to lock the lock (80) provided on the other side of the door (70). When this happens, the push rods (90, 100) attached to the inner side of the door (70) come into contact with the front of the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) and push them inward, aligning them in the correct position. Consequently, the lock (not shown) provided on the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) engages, fixing the position. The position between the installed binder (10) and the printer (20) is accurately aligned so that after printing on the printer (20), the paper discharged through the paper output port (not shown) formed on the rear or upper surface of the printer (20) is accurately transported and fed into the paper inlet port (not shown) formed on the rear or lower surface of the upper binder (10), thereby preventing operational errors caused by paper jamming or incomplete transport.

[0031] In the present embodiment, the push rod (90, 100) each includes a fixed bracket (92, 102) attached to the inner surface of the door (70), a rod body (92, 104) detachably fixed to the front of the fixed bracket (92, 102) with a fixing screw or the like, and a contact roller (96, 106) rotatably fixed to the front end of the rod body (94, 104).

[0033] In this embodiment, the shape and specifications of the push rods (90, 100) for the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) are slightly different from each other. This is because the placement positions of the push rods (90, 100) differ to match the positions of the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) installed inside the cabinet (1). The shapes of the fixing bracket (92, 102) and the rod body (94, 104) can be designed in various ways other than those shown in the drawing. It is also possible to further equip the rod body (94, 104) itself with an elastic or cushioning member, such as a compression coil spring, to effectively absorb the shock generated when pushing the upper and lower shelves (30, 40).

[0035] In this embodiment, the contact roller (96, 106) at the tip of the push rod (90, 100) may be made of a soft synthetic resin or silicone or rubber material having a predetermined elasticity, and its specifications or shape may not be limited only to the circular roller shape shown in the drawing, but may also be made in a cylindrical shape.

[0036] Meanwhile, the contact roller (96, 106) is attached to the front of the cabinet (1) by a hinge (H). When the cabinet (70) closes along a virtual track of a predetermined radius with the hinge as an axis, the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) inside the cabinet (1) slide in a straight line. As a result, the contact roller (96, 106) rolls along the left and right directions of the front of the upper and lower shelves (30, 40), thereby minimizing friction and pushing the upper and lower shelves (30, 40) into the correct inner position without surface damage or scratching sounds.

[0038] As explained above, the integrated civil document issuance machine according to the present invention has the advantage that, even if the shelves are not fully pushed back in after opening the cabinet door and pulling out the upper and lower shelves for inspection or replenishing paper, ink, or binding cores, the push rod pushes the upper and lower shelves back into place simply by closing and locking the door, thereby aligning the binding machine and printer placed on the upper and lower shelves in the correct position and easily resolving the problem of paper jamming during transport, thereby enabling efficient issuance of civil documents. Furthermore, the manufacturer can minimize the need for frequent training on usage methods or after-sales service for troubleshooting. Explanation of the symbols
