[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The ink cartridge material moving device comprises: a machine base 100, an ink cartridge material channel 200, a material moving mechanism 300, an output material channel 400 and an ink cartridge loading mechanism 500. The ink cartridge material channel 200 is arranged on the machine base 100 and extends in the front-to-back direction. The ink cartridge material channel 200 comprises a front material channel 210 and a rear material channel 220. The material moving mechanism 300 is used to drive the ink cartridge 1 to move on the ink cartridge material channel 200. The material moving mechanism 300 comprises a material moving member 310 and a material moving member driving mechanism 320. The material moving member 310 is provided with a front material clamping portion 311 and a rear material clamping portion 312. A plurality of ink cartridge clamping positions 313 are provided on the front material clamping portion 311 and the rear material clamping portion 312. The material moving member driving mechanism 320 is connected to the material moving member 310 and can drive the material moving member 310 to move along the ink cartridge material channel 200. The output channel 400 is disposed on the machine base 100 and connected to the front channel 210. The ink cartridge feeding mechanism 500 is disposed corresponding to the rear channel 220 and is used to feed the ink cartridge 1 into the rear channel 220.

[0037] Reference Figure 4 When the front clamping part 311 moves to correspond to the front material channel 210, the rear clamping part 312 corresponds to the rear material channel 220. Figure 5When the front clamping portion 311 moves to correspond to the output channel 400 , the rear clamping portion 312 corresponds to the front channel 210 .

[0038] When the ink cartridge transfer device is used, the front material channel 210 of the ink cartridge material channel 200 is used as the core working area, and the ink filling device 600 or other process devices are set corresponding to the front material channel 210. Since the rear material clamping part 312 corresponds to the rear material channel 220 when the front material clamping part 311 moves to correspond to the front material channel 210, the ink cartridge 1 can be synchronously delivered to the rear material channel 220 and the rear material clamping part 312 through the ink cartridge feeding mechanism 500 when the multiple ink cartridges 1 on the front material channel 210 are filled with ink or other processes are carried out, and the efficiency is high; after the multiple ink cartridges 1 on the front material channel 210 complete the corresponding process, the front material clamping part 311 is moved to a position corresponding to the output material channel 400, and the rear material clamping part 312 corresponds to the front material channel 210, so that when the ink cartridges 1 that have completed the process are sent out, the ink cartridges 1 on the rear material channel 220 can be synchronously transferred to the front material channel 210 through the rear material clamping part 312, and the production of the corresponding process is continued, and the efficiency is high. After the material moving member 310 is reset by the material moving member driving mechanism 320, the above process can be repeated. Since the front clamping portion 311 and the rear clamping portion 312 on the material moving member 310 both include a plurality of ink cartridge clamping positions 313, a plurality of ink cartridges 1 can form a group. Through the action of the material moving mechanism 300, a plurality of ink cartridges 1 are transferred in groups, and the corresponding process device can complete the processing of the entire group of ink cartridges 1 at one time, with high efficiency. The above-mentioned ink cartridge material moving device has the advantage of high material moving efficiency, which is conducive to improving production efficiency.

[0039] In this embodiment, the front clamping portion 311 moves to correspond to the front material channel 210, which means that the ink cartridge clamping position 313 on the front clamping portion 311 is in a position capable of clamping the ink cartridge 1 located in the front material channel 210. The rear clamping portion 312 corresponds to the rear material channel 220, which means that the ink cartridge clamping position 313 on the rear clamping portion 312 is in a position capable of clamping the ink cartridge 1 located in the rear material channel 220.

[0040] Reference Figure 2In this embodiment, the front channel 210 is provided with a first limiting strip 230 and a second limiting strip 240, and the first limiting strip 230 and the second limiting strip 240 are arranged side by side. The channel surface of the front channel 210, the first limiting strip 230 and the second limiting strip 240 are enclosed to form a slide suitable for the ink cartridge to slide therein, and the slide is extended along the front-to-back direction. The first limiting strip 230 extends to the rear channel 220 to form a stopper, and a slide entrance is arranged at a position opposite to the stopper, and the slide entrance is arranged corresponding to the ink cartridge feeding mechanism 500, and the ink cartridge feeding mechanism 500 is configured to feed the ink cartridge 1 into the rear channel 220 through the slide entrance. The end of the second limiting strip 240 close to the rear channel 220 is tapered, so as to facilitate the ink cartridge 1 to enter the front channel 210 from the rear channel 220. In other embodiments, the ink cartridge channel 200 can also be other suitable structures, and those skilled in the art can set them according to actual conditions.

[0041] Reference Figure 2 In this embodiment, the output channel 400 includes a weighing channel 410 and a delivery channel 420. The delivery channel 420 is connected to the front channel 210 through the weighing channel 410, and a weighing sensor is provided on the weighing channel 410. When the rear clamping part 312 corresponds to the front channel 210, the front clamping part 311 corresponds to the weighing channel 410, so that the ink cartridge 1 first enters the weighing channel 410 when it is output, and obtains weight data through the weighing sensor, which is convenient for subsequent weight measurement. In the case of application to the ink filling process, data support is provided for calculating whether the ink filling is sufficient.

[0043] When the front clamping part 311 and the rear clamping part 312 move from the back to the front, the ink cartridge clamping position 313 formed by the clamping claw 314 drives the ink cartridge 1 to move forward, so that the ink cartridge 1 is moved from the rear material channel 220 to the front material channel 210. When the material moving member 310 is reset, the material moving member 310 is first driven to move to the left by the material moving member driving mechanism 320, so that the ink cartridge 1 exits the ink cartridge clamping position 313 through the ink cartridge inlet and outlet 315, and then the material moving member driving mechanism 320 drives the material moving member 310 to reset. After the material moving member 310 is reset, the ink cartridge clamping position 313 of the front clamping part 311 re-clamps the multiple ink cartridges 1 in the front material channel 210, so that the continuous material moving of the ink cartridge 1 can be continuously realized.
