The first side 48 of the base 46 has a first limiting protrusion 41 extending outward, and the second side 49 has a second limiting protrusion 49 extending outward. The functions of the two limiting protrusions are Control the distance that the adjustment slide block 4 moves in the plane of the adjustment rod chute.

[0047] see Figure 12 , The limiting bottom plate 7 is a circular plate, and the limiting bottom plate 7 is provided with two clamping holes 71, 72 through which the clip spring 53 of the adjusting rod 5 can pass.

Through the compression of the spring 8 , the adjustment assembly 11 can perform axial reciprocating translational movement relative to the gear 2 along the axis Z of the photosensitive drum.
[0050] pass Figure 16 and Figure 17 , the positional relationship between the adjustment assembly 11 and the gear 2 can be clearly understood. For ease of understanding, Figure 16 The rotary driving force receiving head 3 is hidden in the Figure 17 Hidden limit base plate 7 in.
[0051] pass Figure 18a ~ Figure 18c , it can be clearly understood that the first linear reciprocating translational movement of the adjustment assembly 11 relative to the gear 2 along the first direction X perpendicular to the axial direction Z of the photosensitive drum is realized in the drum-shaped hole 22 of the gear 2 of.
[0052] pass Figure 19a ~ Figure 19c , it can be clearly understood that the adjustment assembly 11 performs an axial reciprocating translational movement relative to the gear 2 along the axis Z of the photosensitive drum through the compression of the spring 8 .
[0053] Figure 20a ~ Figure 20d A schematic diagram showing the working process of the process cartridge (only showing the end of the photosensitive drum) with the drive assembly 1 falling into the printer, the process cartridge falls into the printer along the direction Xa perpendicular to the axis of the photosensitive drum; Figure 21a ~ Figure 21d A schematic diagram showing the process of removing the process cartridge equipped with the drive assembly 1 from the printer, the process cartridge is removed from the printer along the direction Xb perpendicular to the axis of the drum. The adjustment part 11 in the driving assembly 1 moves inwards along the direction Za as a whole, and the adjustment part 11 moves outwards along the direction Zb as a whole; see Figure 13 , θa represents the clockwise rotation direction of the rotational driving force receiving head 3, and θb represents the counterclockwise rotation direction of the rotational driving force receiving head 3.
[0054] Its working process is as follows:
[0055] 1. Push the process cartridge into the printer along the direction Xa;
[0056] 2. See Figure 20a ~ Figure 20d , when the drive assembly 1 on the process cartridge is put into the printer along the direction Xa and touches the drive rod 13 of the printer, there are two situations that need to be disassembled and explained:
[0057] 1) If the initial contact position is the first claw 31, the printer driving lever 13 will touch the two slopes 311, 312 of the first claw 31, and one of the two surfaces must be weaker in force. When the force on the slope 312 is weak, the printer drive rod 13 rubs against the second slope 312 to push the rotary driving force receiving head 3 to rotate an angle along the direction θa, and the printer drive rod 13 will automatically cut into the first slope adjacent to the second slope 312. on the two tangent planes 34, and cause the adjustment assembly 11 in the driving assembly 1 to move along the Za direction as a whole; when the force on the first inclined surface 311 is weak, the printer driving rod 13 will rub against the first inclined surface 311 to push the rotating driving force receiving head. 3 After turning an angle along the θb direction, the printer driving lever 13 will automatically cut into the first cut plane 33 adjacent to the first slope 311, and cause the adjustment assembly 11 in the driving assembly 1 to move along the Za direction as a whole. Since the second claw 32 is symmetrical to the center of the first claw 31, when the initial contact position is the second claw 32, its action process is similar to the above process;
[0058] 2) If the initial contact position is the first cut surface 33 or the second cut surface 34, the printer driving rod 13 will directly and automatically cut into the first cut surface 33 or the second cut surface 34, and cause the entire adjustment assembly 11 in the drive assembly to Move in the Za direction.
[0059] 3. As the force along the direction Xa increases, the overall displacement of the adjustment assembly 11 in the drive assembly 1 along the Za direction also increases; and only when the printer drive rod touches the spherical surface 35, the adjustment components in the drive assembly 1 11 The whole moves along the direction Zb until the displacement is zero;
[0060] 4. When the printer is started, the printer driving lever 13 will automatically couple the rotating driving force receiving head 3, and the rotating driving force receiving head 3 receives the rotating driving force from the printer to drive the drum main body 9 of the photosensitive drum 10 to rotate;
[0061] 5. When the rotating driving force receiving head 3 receives the driving force of the printer, the driving force from the printer may not be a constant value, so the adjusting component 11 in the driving component 1 moves linearly in a small range to buffer the driving force of the printer Change the value, so that the photosensitive drum rotates smoothly without jumping and fluctuations, the process cartridge works normally, and the printing quality is excellent;
[0062] 6. See Figure 21a ~ Figure 21d , when the printer stops running, when the process cartridge is taken out from the printer, the process cartridge moves initially along the direction Xb, and the printer driving rod 13 starts to break away from the rotating driving force receiving head 3;
[0063] 7. When the printer drive rod 13 touches the edge of the spherical surface 35, the adjustment assembly 11 in the drive assembly 1 starts to move along the direction Za as a whole;
[0064] 8. As the overall displacement of the adjustment assembly 11 increases along the direction Za, if the printer driving lever encounters the first claw 31 or the second claw 32, it will pull the rotating driving force receiving head 3 along the θa or θb direction Turn an angle, causing the printer driving rod 13 to cut into the first cut plane 33 or the second cut plane 34;
[0065] 9. When the printer drive rod 13 cuts into the first tangent plane 33 or the second tangent plane 34, the adjustment assembly 11 as a whole starts to move along the direction Zb until the displacement reaches zero, and the process cartridge can be taken out of the printer.
[0066] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, some modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the scope of the claims of the present invention. protected range. For example, the limiting bottom plate can be realized by adopting other axial limiting structures that those skilled in the art can easily think of. The axial limiting structure can be an independent component separated from the adjusting rod, or can be a part formed on the adjusting rod. In addition, the elastic support member can be replaced by an elastic member other than a helical compression spring, such as a compressible elastic plastic part structure, etc.; the shape of the limiting hole on the separator of the gear is not limited to a drum shape, and can also be a rectangle Any shape with two flat sides, such as a planar quadrilateral, as long as the adjustment assembly can only translate in the axial and radial directions, but cannot rotate around the axis.
