Identification Card Printer Formed From A Sheet Feed Printer

View page
US Patent:
6729719, May 4, 2004
Filed:
Jun 20, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/175766
Inventors:
Gary M. Klinefelter - Eden Prairie MN
Martin A. Pribula - Eden Prairie MN
Leonid S. Gershenovich - Eden Prairie MN
Stacy W. Lukaskawcez - Shakopee MN
Assignee:
Fargo Electronics, Inc. - Eden Prairie MN
International Classification:
B41J 201
US Classification:
347101, 347104, 271162, 400521, 400536, 400537, 400541
Abstract:
In a method of forming an identification card printer a sheet feed printer is provided having a printhead and a sheet feed mechanism that is driven by a sheet feed drive to feed paper sheets to the printhead for printing. Next, the sheet feed mechanism is replaced with a card transport mechanism that is used to feed cards from a card supply to the printhead for printing. The card transport mechanism is then linked to the sheet feed drive through a feed drive link. Finally, a master controller for controlling the operation of the card transport mechanism is installed. Additional aspects of the present invention relate to an identification card printer formed in accordance with the above-described method.

Identification Card Printer

US Patent:
6758616, Jul 6, 2004
Filed:
Apr 19, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/126427
Inventors:
Martin A. Pribula - Eden Prairie MN
James R. Meier - Falcon Heights MN
Stacy W. Lukaskawcez - Shakopee MN
Gary M. Klinefelter - Eden Prairie MN
Leonid S. Gershenovich - Eden Prairie MN
Gary A. Lenz - Eden Prairie MN
Jeffrey D. Upin - Edina MN
Assignee:
Fargo Electronics, Inc. - Eden Prairie MN
International Classification:
B41J 1158
US Classification:
400624, 271 901, 347105, 101232
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to an identification card printer that can be used with a card cartridge that protects a stack of cards stored therein from environmental contamination and establishes a card transport plane, from which other components of the identification card printer can be aligned, independent of the card cartridge. The identification card printer includes a cartridge receiver adapted to receive the card cartridge and a card transport mechanism. The card transport mechanism includes a pair of feed rollers, portions of which extend to the cartridge receiver and define the card transport plane.

US Patent:
6932527, Aug 23, 2005
Filed:
Apr 19, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/126441
Inventors:
Martin A. Pribula - Eden Prairie MN, US
James R. Meier - Falcon Heights MN, US
Stacy W. Lukaskawcez - Shakopee MN, US
Anthony L. Lokken - Eden Prairie MN, US

Assignee:
Fargo Electronics, Inc. - Eden Prairie MN
International Classification:
B41J011/26
US Classification:
400621, 705 22, 705 28
Abstract:
A card cartridge includes a housing having a pair of opposing side walls, a top, a front wall, a back wall opposite the front wall, and a base. The housing includes an interior cavity that is sized to accommodate a stack of cards, a card access, and a card output slot. The card access allows a card transport mechanism to engage a lead card contained in the housing and feed the lead card through the card output slot.

Card Singularization Gate

US Patent:
6945524, Sep 20, 2005
Filed:
Sep 5, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/235340
Inventors:
James R. Meier - St. Paul MN, US
Martin A. Pribula - Eden Prairie MN, US
Stacy W. Lukaskawcez - Shakopee MN, US
Assignee:
Fargo Electronics, Inc. - Eden Prairie MN
International Classification:
B65H005/00
US Classification:
271 1001, 271 1009, 271124
Abstract:
A card singularization gate for use in an identification card printer includes a roller support, a guide roller, and a card stop. The roller support is positioned between a card feeder and the card transport mechanism. The guide roller is supported by the roller support for rotation about an axis that is substantially parallel to a card feed plane and transverse to a card path. The guide roller includes a card engaging side adjacent the card feed plane where non-abrasive contact of a first surface of the lead card is made during the card feed operation. The card stop is positioned adjacent a side of the guide roller that is opposite the card engaging side. During card feed operations, the lead card is allowed passage to the card transport mechanism along the card engaging side of the guide roller while cards that are stacked upon the lead card are blocked by the card stop.

Assignee:
Fargo Electronics, Inc. - Eden Prairie MN
International Classification:
B41J 2/355
US Classification:
347211, 358 11
Abstract:
A printer includes a substrate input, a substrate transport, a printhead, a removable ribbon cartridge, a ribbon cartridge receiver, and a substrate output. The substrate transport is configured to feed a substrate from the substrate input along a print path. The printhead is positioned below the print path and is configured to print an image on a surface of the substrate. The ribbon cartridge is received in the ribbon cartridge receiver and contains a supply of print ribbon that extends between supply and take-up spools and over the printhead. The substrate can then be discharged through the substrate output.
