Patent attributes
The invention relates to a self-inking hand stamp (1) comprising a housing (2) and an actuating arc (3) that can be displaced in relation to the housing and in which a stamp type part with axial parts (10, 11) is mounted, said axial parts protruding through slit-type openings (25) in lateral walls (8, 9) of the housing (2). At least one of said axial parts is held in a recess (26, 27) in one of the lateral parts (12, 13) of the actuating arc (3) by means of a separately produced fixing element. The fixing element can be introduced into the recess (26, 27), and locked therein, in such a way that the axis thereof is parallel to the axis of the recess, said fixing element comprising at least one locking element (29, 30; 35) that co-operates with a corresponding locking element (31; 37, 38) on the lateral side (12, 13) of the actuating arc (3). The inventive stamp is also provided with a turning mechanism (7) for the stamp plate (6), for displacing the stamp plate from an upper inking position against an inking cushion (51), to a lower stamp position, during the displacement of the actuating arc (3) in relation to the housing (2). The fixing element is formed by at least one bearing part (14, 15) comprising a cylindrical bearing recess (28) for the axial part (10, 11) of a stamp plate (6) provided as a stamp type part, said bearing part having a plurality of locking positions in the lateral side (12, 13) of the actuating arc (3) in the axial direction.
