Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of printer technology, specifically to a dual-motor driven digital inkjet label printer. Background Technology

[0002] Dual-motor driven digital inkjet label printers typically refer to printers that use two motors to control the printhead and label feeding system respectively. This design can improve the printer's performance and efficiency, especially in high-speed, high-precision label printing tasks.

[0003] According to a public announcement (publication number: CN206287670U), a thermal transfer label printer based on dual motor drive includes a bottom shell, a top cover, a core assembly, a first motor, and a second motor. The bottom shell forms a paper tray. The core assembly includes a base and a separator located above the base. The base is set inside the bottom shell and has a rubber roller and a paper detection module. The separator has a thermal sheet above the rubber roller, and a paper feeding channel is formed between the rubber roller and the thermal sheet.

[0004] The aforementioned method, through the cooperation between components such as the bottom shell and the top cover, is insufficient to solve the problem of long-term exposure and dirt accumulation in the discharge trough, resulting in the printer equipment being unable to operate stably for extended periods, and needs improvement. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention proposes a dual-motor driven digital inkjet label printer.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A dual-motor driven digital inkjet label printer includes a label printer, a receiving roller is provided on the side of the label printer, a dust removal and anti-jamming component is provided on the side of the label printer, the dust removal and anti-jamming component includes a first motor, the output shaft of the first motor is provided on one end of the receiving roller, a transmission roller is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the label printer, a second motor is provided at one end of the transmission roller, a discharge groove is opened on the side of the label printer, a housing is fixedly connected to the side of the label printer, a half gear is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing, a rotating wheel is fixedly connected to the side of the half gear, a rack is slidably connected to the inner wall of the housing, and a scraper is rotatably connected to the side of the rack.

[0007] Furthermore, the discharge trough is located on the displacement trajectory of the scraper, and the half gear and rack mesh with each other. This design is beneficial for driving the rack to move when the half gear rotates.

[0008] Furthermore, a spring is fixedly connected to one end of the rack, and the end of the spring away from the rack is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer casing. The design of the spring is beneficial to the rack being able to automatically reset when it is not being driven.

[0009] Furthermore, a locking rod is rotatably connected to one end of the scraper rod, and a slot is provided on the side of the label printer. The slot is located on the displacement trajectory of the locking rod. The design of the slot and the locking rod is conducive to the temporary adjustment of the position of the scraper rod.

[0010] Furthermore, a frame plate is fixedly connected to the side of the label printer. The frame plate is located at the bottom of the discharge chute, and the design of the frame plate helps to support the printed labels.

[0011] Furthermore, the label printer is internally equipped with a heat dissipation component, which includes a slide groove formed on the inner wall of the label printer. An actuating rod is fixedly connected to the side of the rack, and a crossbar is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the label printer. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the top of the crossbar, and blades are fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the rotating shaft. An inclined rod is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the rotating shaft. By rotating the blades, airflow is generated. The blades are located at the bottom of the second motor, and the rotation of the blades dissipates heat from the second motor.

[0012] Furthermore, the inclined rod is located on the displacement trajectory of the trigger rod, and several blades are arranged in a circumferential array on the circumferential surface of the rotating shaft. This design is beneficial because when the trigger rod moves, it squeezes the inclined rod, causing the inclined rod to displace.

[0013] Furthermore, a torsion spring is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the rotating shaft, and the end of the torsion spring away from the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the top of the crossbar. The design of the torsion spring is beneficial to the automatic reset of the rotating shaft when it is not driven.

[0014] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] 1. This utility model utilizes the interplay between components such as the scraper, rack, and half-gear within the dust removal and anti-jamming assembly. By rotating the wheel counterclockwise, the half-gear is driven, the rack pulls the spring, and thus the scraper is pushed to clean the discharge chute. This design avoids long-term exposure of the discharge chute and accumulation of dirt, ensuring stable operation of the equipment over extended periods. The locking rod and slot allow for easy adjustment and locking of the scraper's position, ensuring accurate operation or temporary retraction of the scraper from the work area under different conditions. This adjustability increases the equipment's flexibility.

[0016] 2. This utility model achieves heat dissipation through the wind force of the blades by cooperating with the components such as the blades, the trigger rod, and the inclined rod inside the heat dissipation component. This can effectively reduce the temperature of the second motor, reduce overheating, and thus extend the service life of the second motor. Through an effective heat dissipation system, the risk of overheating of the second motor is reduced, which can reduce the failure rate and improve the reliability of the printer.

[0017] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] like Figures 1-6As shown, this embodiment proposes a dual-motor driven digital inkjet label printer, including a label printer 1. A receiving roller 2 is provided on the side of the label printer 1. A dust removal and anti-jamming component 3 is provided on the side of the label printer 1. The dust removal and anti-jamming component 3 includes a first motor 31. The output shaft of the first motor 31 is located on one end of the receiving roller 2. A transmission roller 32 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the label printer 1. A second motor 33 is provided on one end of the transmission roller 32. A discharge groove 34 is opened on the side of the label printer 1. A housing 36 is fixedly connected to the side of the label printer 1. A half gear 37 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing 36. A rotating wheel 38 is fixedly connected to the side of the half gear 37. A rack 39 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the housing 36. A scraper 311 is rotatably connected to the side of the rack 39.

[0029] The discharge chute 34 is located on the displacement trajectory of the scraper 311. The half gear 37 and the rack 39 mesh with each other. This design is beneficial to drive the rack 39 to move when the half gear 37 rotates.

[0030] A spring 310 is fixedly connected to one end of the rack 39. The end of the spring 310 away from the rack 39 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 36. The design of the spring 310 is conducive to the rack 39 automatically resetting when it is not driven.

[0031] One end of the scraper bar 311 is rotatably connected to a locking rod 312. A slot 313 is provided on the side of the label printer 1. The slot 313 is located on the displacement trajectory of the locking rod 312. The design of the slot 313 and the locking rod 312 is conducive to the temporary adjustment of the position of the scraper bar 311.

[0032] A frame plate 35 is fixedly connected to the side of the label printer 1. The frame plate 35 is located at the bottom of the discharge chute 34. The design of the frame plate 35 is conducive to supporting the printed labels.

[0033] In this embodiment, motor 31 drives the receiving roller 2 to rotate, conveying the label material. Motor 31 controls the speed and tension of the label paper to ensure smooth movement of the label during printing. Motor 33 drives the transmission roller 32 to rotate, which drives the inkjet head to rotate. The inkjet head is located on the surface of the transmission roller 32. The rotation of the transmission roller 32 prints the label material. The discharge trough 34 is used to transport the printed labels. The discharge trough 34 is exposed for a long time and is prone to accumulating dirt. Holding the rotating wheel 38 and rotating it counterclockwise drives the half gear 3. 7. When rotated counterclockwise, half of the teeth on the half gear 37 mesh with the rack 39. When the half gear 37 rotates counterclockwise, it drives the rack 39 to move. When the rack 39 moves, it pulls on the spring 310. The design of the spring 310 allows the rack 39 to automatically reset when it is not being driven, causing the rack 39 to drive the scraper 311 to move away from the spring 310. The discharge trough 34 is located on the movement trajectory of the scraper 311. When the scraper 311 moves, it scrapes the inner wall of the discharge trough 34, removing material from the discharge trough. To prevent dirt from affecting the normal transmission of labels, when scraper 311 is not needed, it is rotated upwards and away from the discharge chute 34, temporarily moving it away from the discharge chute 34. After adjusting the position of scraper 311, locking rod 312 is moved closer to the slot 313 along one end of scraper 311, inserting locking rod 312 into the slot 313 to lock the position of scraper 311 and prevent it from affecting the normal operation of the discharge chute 34. The scraper 311 is designed to... To clean the dirt inside the discharge trough 34, the wheel 38 is rotated counterclockwise to drive the half gear 37, which in turn pulls the spring 310, thereby pushing the scraper 311 to clean the discharge trough 34. This design avoids long-term exposure of the discharge trough 34 and dirt accumulation, ensuring stable operation of the equipment for a long time. Through the cooperation of the locking rod 312 and the slot 313, the position of the scraper 311 can be easily adjusted and locked, ensuring that the scraper 311 can be accurately operated or temporarily withdrawn from the working area under different conditions. This adjustability increases the flexibility of the equipment.

[0034] Example 2

[0035] like Figures 1-6 As shown, based on the same concept as in Embodiment 1 above, the label printer 1 is internally equipped with a heat dissipation component 4. The heat dissipation component 4 includes a slide 41, which is formed on the inner wall of the label printer 1. An actuating rod 42 is fixedly connected to the side of the rack 39. A crossbar 43 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the label printer 1. A rotating shaft 44 is rotatably connected to the top of the crossbar 43. A blade 46 is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 44. An inclined rod 45 is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 44. By rotating the blade 46, wind power is generated. The blade 46 is located at the bottom of the second motor 33. The rotation of the blade 46 dissipates heat from the second motor 33.

[0036] The inclined rod 45 is located on the displacement trajectory of the trigger rod 42. Several blades 46 are arranged in a circumferential array on the circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 44. This design is beneficial to squeeze the inclined rod 45 when the trigger rod 42 moves, so that the inclined rod 45 will be displaced.

[0037] A torsion spring 47 is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 44. The end of the torsion spring 47 away from the rotating shaft 44 is fixedly connected to the top of the crossbar 43. The design of the torsion spring 47 is conducive to the automatic reset of the rotating shaft 44 when it is not driven.

[0038] In this embodiment, the rack 39 moves away from the spring 310, causing the trigger rod 42 to move. The inclined rod 45 is located on the movement trajectory of the trigger rod 42. When the trigger rod 42 moves, it presses against the inclined rod 45, causing the inclined rod 45 to displace. The movement of the inclined rod 45 causes the rotating shaft 44 to rotate, which in turn causes the blade 46 to rotate. The rotation of the blade 46 generates a certain amount of airflow. The blade 46 is located at the bottom of the second motor 33. The airflow generated by the rotation of the blade 46 blows onto the second motor 33, providing slight cooling. The second motor 33 generates a lot of heat when operating under high load. Prolonged high temperature may cause the second motor 33 to overheat, thus shortening its service life. The airflow cooling by the blade 46 can effectively reduce the temperature of the second motor 33, reduce overheating, and extend the service life of the second motor 33. Through an effective cooling system, the risk of overheating of the second motor 33 is reduced, which can lower the failure rate and improve the reliability of the printer.

[0039] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
