Turning device for identification objects
A device for turning over identification objects comprising a receiving device for holding an identification object, wherein the receiving device can be moved from an initial position along a guide, and a first rolling element, which is rotatably received in the receiving device, wherein the first rolling element comprises a blocking device, which permits rotation of the receiving device in a first direction. The first rolling element, during movement along the first bearing, performs a rotation in the first direction and the receiving device performs a rotation in the first direction via the first rolling element. During an opposite movement of the receiving device, the first rolling element performs a rotation in a second direction opposite to the first direction, wherein the blocking device prevents rotation of the receiving device.
1. A device for turning over identification objects, comprising:
a receiving device for holding an identification object, wherein the receiving device can be moved from an initial position along a guide,
a first bearing arranged on the guide in the direction of movement of the receiving device,
a first rolling element rotatably received in the receiving device, wherein the first rolling element comprises a blocking device, which permits rotation of the receiving device in a first direction only by means of the first rolling element, and
a drive adapted to move the receiving device along the guide,
wherein, after movement of the receiving device from the initial position, the first rolling element contacts the first bearing, and wherein, during movement along the first bearing by means of the drive, the first rolling element performs a rotation in the first direction and the receiving device performs a rotation in the first direction via the first rolling element, and wherein, during an opposite movement of the receiving device by means of the drive, the first rolling element performs a rotation in a second direction opposite to the first direction, wherein the blocking device prevents rotation of the receiving device.
2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the guide comprises a second bearing, located at the level of the first bearing, which is opposite to the first bearing in an offset manner, and the receiving device comprises a second rolling element, which is rotatably mounted to the receiving device, wherein the second rolling element comprises a blocking device, which only permits rotation of the receiving device in the first direction by means of the second rolling element.
3. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the second bearing is rubberized.
4. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the second rolling element is rubberized.
5. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the second bearing is a gear rack and the second rolling element is a gear wheel.
6. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the blocking device of the second rolling element comprises a free wheel.
7. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the second bearing is arranged on the guide in such a manner that the second rolling element only contacts the second bearing after the receiving device has been moved from the initial position by a certain amount.
8. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the second bearing is configured as a bar arranged on the guide along the direction of movement of the receiving device.
9. The device according to claim 2 , wherein a distance between the second bearing and the second rolling element is adjustable.
10. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the first and the second rolling elements have a common axis of rotation.
11. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the drive is a hydraulic cylinder, pneumatic cylinder or linear drive unit.
12. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the first bearing is rubberized.
13. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the first rolling element is rubberized.
14. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the first bearing is a gear rack and the first rolling element is a gear wheel.
15. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the blocking device of the first rolling element comprises a free wheel.
16. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the identification objects are supplied by a conveyor device.
17. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the device for holding the identification object comprises two pairs of opposite rollers adapted for resiliently receiving an identification object therebetween.
18. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the first bearing is arranged on the guide in such a manner that the first rolling element only contacts the first bearing after the receiving device has been moved from the initial position by a certain amount.
19. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the first bearing is configured as a bar arranged on the guide along the direction of movement of the receiving device.
20. The device according to claim 1 , wherein a distance between the first bearing and the first rolling element is adjustable.
