Clamping fixation of numbering units
Embodiments provide a numbering unit including an upper part, a lower part and a clamping fixation providable between the upper part and the lower part.
1 . A numbering unit comprising:
an upper part;
a lower part; and
a clamping fixation configured to establish a connection or disconnection between the upper part and the lower part,
wherein the upper part comprises a numbering mechanism.
2 . The numbering unit according to claim 1 , wherein the lower part is configured to be fixed firmly, but detachably, to a mounting ring of a numbering machine.
3 . The numbering unit according to claim 1 , wherein the lower part remains on a mounting ring of a numbering machine when the upper part is replaced.
4 . The numbering unit according to claim 1 , wherein the lower part is configured to clamp to a mounting ring of a numbering machine.
5 . The numbering unit according to claim 1 , wherein the lower part comprises a clamping lever and an opposing clamping hook, and wherein the lower part is fixable on a mounting ring of a numbering machine via mutual tensioning of the clamping lever and the clamping hook.
6 . The numbering unit according to claim 5 , further comprising a screw extending through the clamping hook into the lower part.
7 . The numbering unit according to claim 1 , wherein the upper part further comprises type wheels.
8 . The numbering unit according to claim 1 , wherein the upper part is fixable to the lower part by establishing a clamping connection, and wherein the upper part is removable from the lower part by releasing the clamping connection.
9 . The numbering unit according to claim 8 , wherein the upper part comprises at least one tensioning lever, or wherein the lower part comprises at least one tensioning lever.
10 . The numbering unit according to claim 9 , wherein the at least one tensioning lever extends from the upper part into a recess, an undercut or a groove in the lower part thereby securing, fixing or clamping the upper part on the lower part, or wherein the at least one tensioning lever extends from the lower part into a recess, an undercut, or a groove in the upper part thereby securing, fixing or clamping the upper part on the lower part.
11 . The numbering unit according to claim 9 , wherein two tiltable tensioning levers are arranged on the upper part and/or two tiltable tensioning levers are arranged on the lower part, the two levers being arranged diagonally opposite one another.
12 . The numbering unit according to claim 9 , further comprising at least one spring arranged between the at least one tensioning lever and a respective upper or lower part to which the at least one tensioning lever is assigned, the at least one spring configured for pretension of the at least one tensioning lever thereby preventing the upper part or the lower part from being released from a respective other part when the at least one tensioning lever is engaged.
13 . The numbering unit according to claim 12 , wherein, when the at least one tensioning lever is actuated against a force of the at least one spring, the at least one tensioning lever is pivotable away from the other part so that the upper part and the lower part are removable from one another.
14 . The numbering unit according to claim 12 , wherein, when an actuation is withdrawn, the at least one tensioning lever is pivotable into the other part so that the upper part is fixable and/or is clampable to the lower part.
15 . The numbering unit according to claim 9 , wherein the at least one tensioning lever comprises an actuation section configured for a user and a hook section configured for engagement with the other part.
16 . The numbering unit according to claim 15 , wherein the at least one tensioning lever is configured to engage with the hook section in a lateral recess in the lower part.
17 . The numbering unit according to claim 15 , wherein the at least one tensioning lever is arranged vertically.
18 . The numbering unit according to claim 1 , wherein an underside of the upper part is configured to engage with a lug in a central groove of the lower part.
19 . A numbering machine comprising:
the numbering unit according to claim 1 .
20 . A numbering unit comprising:
an upper part;
a lower part; and
a clamping fixation configured to establish a connection or disconnection between the upper part and the lower part,
wherein the upper part comprises type wheels.
21 . A numbering unit comprising:
an upper part comprising a numbering mechanism and type wheels; and
a lower part,
wherein the lower part comprises a clamping lever and an opposing clamping hook, and wherein the lower part is fixable on a mounting ring of a numbering machine via mutual tensioning of the clamping lever and the clamping hook,
wherein the upper part is fixable to the lower part by establishing a clamping connection, and wherein the upper part is removable from the lower part by releasing the clamping connection.
