The invention discloses a paper feeding sensor of a miniprinter. The sensor comprises an installation frame connected to a printer engine, a touch arm, and a support provided with a
photoelectric sensor, wherein a rotary shaft perpendicular to the touch arm is arranged at one end of the touch arm, the touch arm is hinged to one end of the installation frame through the rotary shaft, the rotary shaft is sleeved with a
torsion spring, one of the two positioning ends of the
torsion spring is clamped to the touch arm, and the other positioning end of the
torsion spring is clamped to the installation frame; the support is installed on the installation frame and provided with a
light sensing channel, a limiting block is arranged on the lower side of the touch arm, a limiting surface is arranged at the lower end of the installation frame, the limiting block is matched with the limiting surface to enable the lower side face of the touch arm to be as high as the upper edge of the
light sensing channel, and a sensing part protruding out of the installation frame is arranged on the upper side face of the touch arm. The
photoelectric sensor is combined with a mechanical blocking structure,
reaction speed is high, required printing paper pressure is small, paper feeding is smoother, paper jamming is reduced, and the paper feeding sensor is suitable for printing paper in
dark color.
