[0016] A pencil sharpener automatic feeding mechanism includes a tooth seat 1 and a tooth cover 2 fixed together, wherein a pencil insertion hole corresponding to the position is opened in the middle position of the tooth seat 1 and the tooth cover 2, and a transmission chamber is formed between the tooth seat 1 and the tooth cover 2. An upper pin shaft 3 and a lower pin shaft 4 are arranged in parallel on the front outer side wall of the tooth seat 1, an upper transmission tooth 3-1 and an upper friction wheel 3-2 are installed on the upper pin shaft 3, and a lower transmission tooth 4-1 and a lower friction wheel 4-2 are installed on the lower pin shaft 4. The upper transmission tooth 3-1 is located at the left end position of the upper pin shaft 3, and the lower transmission tooth 4-1 is located at the right end position of the lower pin shaft 4. A distance for a pencil 5 to pass through is left between the upper friction wheel 3-2 and the lower friction wheel 4-2. When the pencil 5 passes through, it frictionally contacts the upper friction wheel 3-2 and the lower friction wheel 4-2, and the transmission The outer gear 6, the inner gear 7 and the cam 8 are sequentially sleeved from the right front to the rear in the chamber. The center positions of the outer gear 6, the inner gear 7 and the cam 8 are all provided with a pencil insertion hole. The outer gear 6 is provided with a front side gear ring 6-1 and an inner gear ring 6-2. The front side gear ring 6-1 passes through the hole in the middle of the gear seat 1 and is meshed with the upper transmission tooth 3-1 and the lower transmission tooth 4-1. The small tooth difference structure of the inner gear 7 is meshed in the inner gear ring 6-2. The cam part of the cam 8 is sleeved in the inner gear 7. The power input end 8-1 of the cam 8 is exposed from the center hole of the gear cover 2. Four limiting columns 2-9 are evenly distributed on the inner side of the gear cover 2. The outer side of the inner gear 7 is provided with a limiting hole 7-9 corresponding to the limiting column 2-9. The aperture of the limiting hole 7-9 is twice the diameter of the limiting column 2-9.
[0017] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the automatic pen feeding mechanism of this mechanism is installed in a hand-crank pencil sharpener or an electric automatic pencil sharpener. The power input end 8-1 of the cam 8 is connected to the power output end of the hand-crank pencil sharpener or the power output end of the electric automatic pencil sharpener. The cam 8 is driven to rotate, and the cam portion of the cam 8 drives the internal gear 7 to realize a small tooth difference planetary gear transmission in the inner gear ring 6-2 of the outer gear 6, driving the outer gear 6 to rotate. When the outer gear 6 rotates, the front side gear ring 6-1 on the outer gear 6 drives the upper transmission teeth 3-1 and the lower transmission teeth 4-1 to rotate. Specifically, Figure 1 The figure is for reference only and illustrates the rotation and transmission direction of the embodiment. When the outer gear 6 rotates counterclockwise, the front side ring gear 6-1 of the outer gear 6 drives the upper transmission gear 3-1 to rotate downward and drives the lower transmission gear 4-1 to rotate upward. The upper transmission gear 3-1 drives the upper friction wheel 3-2 to rotate downward, and the lower transmission gear 4-1 drives the lower friction wheel 4-2 to rotate upward. The pencil 5 clamped between the upper friction wheel 3-2 and the lower friction wheel 4-2 can be pushed toward one end of the tooth cover 2 by the upper friction wheel 3-2 and the lower friction wheel 4-2, thereby realizing automatic pencil feeding when sharpening the pencil.
[0018] The front outer wall of the gear holder 1 is integrally formed with two sets of axial holes for mounting the upper and lower pins 3 and 4. In each set of axial holes, one of the holes is designed as an open hole. This structure facilitates the installation of the upper and lower pins 3 and 4. During installation, one end of the upper pin 3 is inserted into the axial hole, and the other end is snapped into the open hole.
[0019] The two sides of the tooth cover 2 are integrally formed with assembly fixing hooks 2-1 for hooking onto the tooth seat 1, and the tooth seat 1 is provided with hooking grooves 1-1 for cooperating with the assembly fixing hooks 2-1, so as to facilitate quick assembly between the tooth cover 2 and the tooth seat 1.
[0020] The end of the power input end 8-1 is provided with a driving hole, which is usually a square hole, to facilitate transmission connection with the power output mechanism.
[0021] The tooth seat 1 and the tooth cover 2 are provided with corresponding mounting holes, which facilitate the installation of the mechanism into the pencil sharpener.
[0022] The internal gear 7 is designed with 19 teeth, and the inner ring gear 6-2 is designed with 20 teeth. This conveniently and quickly implements a planetary gear transmission structure with a small tooth difference. This structure reduces speed, lowers pencil feed speed, and reduces excessive pencil friction, thereby extending the life of the pencil feed mechanism.
