Abstract
A sales slip printer for segments (26) that are to be separated from a continuous paper strip (14) with a V-shaped knife (18) and a stacking tray (24) for the segments (26) separated from the continuous paper strip (14) located behind an output channel (12), which is separated from the output channel (12) by projections (28) extending in the side edge areas of the output channel (12), and a slide (30), which pushes through the already separated edges of the continuous paper strip (14) into the stacking tray (24) between the projections (28) during a cutting action.
Claims12
A sales slip printer with a cutting apparatus (16) and an output channel (12) with an upper portion for segments (26) separated from a continuous paper strip (14), wherein the cutting apparatus (16) initially cuts and then abscises the continuous paper from the side edges, whereby a movable knife that is perpendicular to the surface of the continuous paper strip and with a V-formed blade is provided on the one side of the continuous paper strip and an opposing blade edge on the other side of the continuous paper strip,
- said printer comprising:
- a stacking tray (24) located behind the upper portion of the output channel (12) for receiving the segments (26) separated from the continuous paper strip (14), the stacking tray being separated from the output channel the upper portion of the output channel (12) by projections (28) extending a short distance inwardly from side edge areas of the output channel (12), and a slide (30) reciprocating with said V-formed blade for pushing and flexing the segments between and past the opposed projections and into the tray such that the segments will not return to the cutting apparatus.
A sales slip printer comprising:
- a cutting apparatus and an upper portion of an output channel for segments separated from a continuous paper strip wherein the cutting apparatus initially cuts and then abscises the continuous paper from the side edges,
- a movable knife that is perpendicular to the surface of the continuous paper strip, said knife having a blade provided on the one side of the continuous paper strip and an opposing blade edge on the other side of the continuous paper strip,
- a stacking tray located behind the output channel for receiving the segments separated from the continuous paper strip,
- projections located between the output channel and the stacking tray, said projections extending a short distance inwardly sufficiently to contact side edges of the segments as they travel from the output channel to the stacking tray;
- and
- a slide reciprocating with said blade for pushing and flexing segments through the projections into the tray such that the segments will not return to the cutting apparatus during a cutting action of the blade.
