[0002] At present, the ink container (ink bag) device on the market consists of a terminal seat and an ink bag. However, the applicant found that: whether it is the original or compatible manufacturer's ink bag, the contact method with the terminal in the printer can only be fixed by the mutual positioning and snapping of the two terminals. The disadvantage of this fixing method is that the installation compatibility of the ink bag product is poor, because the printers of the same model produced in different regions will have a certain assembly matching error, and the ink bag products produced by the compatible manufacturer are to be compatible with the same model of printers in all regions, which will result in a certain proportion of poor installation contact. This has always been a major problem for consumables compatible manufacturers. If the same printer model is developed by region, the cost of consumables will increase greatly.

[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown in:

[0024] An adaptive multi-angle terminal structure described in an embodiment of the present invention includes a terminal seat 1, wherein the terminal seat 1 has a chip seat 2, and the chip seat 2 is rotatably connected to the terminal seat 1 and is longitudinally arranged in an initial state; the preferred scheme is: the angle between the chip seat 2 and the first surface 11 of the terminal seat 1 in the initial state is 90°, and the angle between the chip 3 and the first surface 11 of the terminal seat 1 when the chip seat 2 is in the initial state is 90°. The specific structure can be: the terminal seat 1 has a mounting recess 12, and the chip seat 2 is rotatably mounted on the mounting recess 12 (the left and right sides of the chip seat 2 have a rotating shaft 21, preferably the left and right sides of the lower end of the chip seat 2 have a rotating shaft 21, and the left and right side walls of the mounting recess 12 have a rotating shaft hole 13, and the rotating shaft 21 can be rotatably inserted into the rotating shaft hole 13 when the chip seat 2 is installed in the mounting recess 12.), in a vertical state; at the same time, a reset elastic member is provided in the mounting recess 12, and the two ends of the reset elastic member are respectively connected to the inner wall of the mounting recess 12 and the rear side of the chip seat 2, and the chip seat 2 is in a vertical state in the initial state; wherein the reset elastic member can be a spring sheet 14, such as Figure 2-4The front end of the spring piece 14 is bent and extended upward to form a vertical portion 141. During assembly, the spring piece 14 is installed and fixed in the mounting recess 12, and the vertical portion 141 is connected and fixed to the rear side of the chip holder 2 (that is, the mounting recess 12 has a welding column 121, the rear side of the chip holder 2 has a clamping column 23, the rear end of the spring piece 14 has a connecting hole 142, and the vertical portion 141 has a clamping hole 143. During assembly, the spring piece 14 is installed at the bottom of the mounting recess 12, and the welding column 121 passes through the connecting hole 142 and is fixed to each other, and the clamping hole 143 is clamped on the clamping column 23; and the bottom surface of the mounting recess 12 is an inclined surface that gradually tilts downward from the back to the front, and accordingly, the angle between the spring piece 14 and the vertical portion 141 is less than 90°, which is conducive to deformation and recovery.).

[0025] The chip 3 is mounted on the outward side of the chip holder 2. The front surface of the chip holder 2 has at least two protruding positioning columns 22. Correspondingly, the chip 3 has at least two positioning holes 31. The specific structure can be as follows: Figure 1 , 2 5. The front surface of the chip seat 2 has four raised positioning columns 22, and correspondingly, the chip 3 has four positioning holes 31; when the chip 3 is installed on the front surface of the chip seat 2, the positioning holes 31 are correspondingly stuck on the raised positioning columns 22 one by one.

[0026] The adaptive multi-angle terminal structure described in the present invention is assembled on the ink container. When the ink container is loaded into the printer, the chip seat 2 is forced to rotate backward until the chip 3 is aligned with the contact terminal in the printer for contact connection. When the ink container is taken out of the printer, the chip seat 2 is automatically reset. Specifically, when the ink container is loaded into the printer, the chip seat 2 is rotated backward to an inclined state when the ink container is loaded into the printer, and is located in the installation recess 12. The chip 3 rotates to an inclined state with the chip seat 2 rotating backward, and is aligned with the contact terminal in the printer for contact connection. At this time, the reset elastic member is in a state of compression deformation under force. When the ink container is taken out of the printer, the chip seat 2 is automatically reset to the initial state under the action of the reset elastic member.

[0027] In this way, the chip holder 2 with the chip 3 installed in the adaptive multi-angle terminal structure of the present invention can be freely rotated and adjusted. When the ink container is installed in different printers for use, the chip holder 2 with the chip 3 installed is automatically adjusted to match the angle of the contact terminal in each printer, ensuring that the chip 3 is aligned, contacted and connected with the contact terminals in different printers, and fully contacted. The compatibility is extremely strong, and the problem of poor contact caused by printers produced in different regions is completely eliminated.

[0028] Of course, the reset elastic member in the adaptive multi-angle terminal structure described in the present invention can also be a spring, and the two ends of the spring are respectively connected to the inner wall of the mounting recess 12 and the rear side of the chip seat 2; the left and / or right rotating shaft 21 of the chip seat 2 of the adaptive multi-angle terminal structure described in the present invention is provided with a torsion spring, and the two legs of the torsion spring are respectively connected to the chip seat 2 and the inner wall of the mounting recess 12.

[0029] The above is a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that a person skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
