Abstract

A device and a method are disclosed for making a wireless connection between a paper sensor in a roll holder and a printing device which receives a printing medium from the roll holder, in which a magnet arranged on the roll holder performs, with each turn of the pin of the roll holder, a cyclical movement which includes first a lifting of the magnet, caused by a rotation of the pin by a fraction of a turn, and then a fall by gravity of the magnet which falls near a coil which is energized by the mechanical energy of the magnet for supplying electrical energy to an emitter in wireless communication with a receiver to receive a signal with each revolution of the pin to count the revolutions made by the pin and act as a paper sensor.

A printing device for printing tickets in public places, with an anti-paper jam system in which an optical sensor for detecting the presence of paper is arranged at a zone where a rise of the paper occurs in case of occlusion of the paper outlet mouth; before the start of a print, the paper is retracted with respect to the sensor, whereby the sensor is OFF; when the print starts, the paper advances until arriving in front of the sensor, whereby the sensor turns ON; from this moment on, if the sensor returns OFF, it means that the paper is no longer detected by the sensor, because it has been raised by an occlusion, whereby the advancing of the paper is interrupted.

Abstract

A printing apparatus is disclosed, in which a printed document is separated from a continuous strip of paper by a blade driven by a reversible motor that has a forward rotation direction, in normal operation, and a backward rotation direction, for blade unlocking in the event of jamming of the blade, in which the backward rotation first has a free initial portion without transmitting force to the blade, then a tooth carried by the motor shaft knocks against another tooth carried by a hub of a gear that transmits force to the blade, unlocking the jam thereof.
