Abstract
A toothed wheel operated adjusting device for card stacking machines, in particular an adjusting device adapted for telephone cards and the like, including a receiving body, a conveyance device, and a press plate. The receiving body has a main frame and a support seat. The components of the conveyance device are disposed between the main frame and the support seat. The adjusting device has a securing plate formed by directly bending an upper portion of the main frame at an angle of 90 degrees, and a movable adjusting plate at a lower portion thereof. The movable adjusting plate has guide track plates at both sides thereof movably inserted into corresponding guide tracks at both sides of the support seat. The upper surface of the movable adjusting plate is provided with four guide posts fitted with stop springs respectively. An upper end portion of each guide post extends into a corresponding hollow guide hole of the securing seat. An adjusting rotary knob having an adjusting rod secured thereto is inserted via a through hole provided in a lateral side plate of the main frame, with its rear end positioned in a shaft hole of shaft post secured at the other side. When the adjusting rotary knob is turned, teeth of different sizes on the outer circumference of a toothed wheel disposed between the adjusting rotary knob and the shaft post may urge against the upper surface of the movable adjusting plate below according to the turning position, thereby allowing adjustment of a clearance between an inclined surface at the lower portion of the movable adjusting plate and a bottom plate of the support seat to achieve optimal card output.
