[0020] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further explained below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.
[0021] Embodiment 1: Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a portable printer synchronous opening and closing cover mechanism and its limiting method according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a base 1, a closing cover 11 is rotatably connected to the upper surface of the base 1, a rubber roller 12 is rotatably connected to the lower surface of the closing cover 11, and a print head 13 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base 1. Two groups of limit assemblies are arranged at both ends of the base 1, and a transmission assembly is connected between the two groups of limit assemblies. The transmission assembly includes a connecting shaft 115 rotatably arranged on the upper surface of the base 1, and the connecting shaft 115 can make the two groups of limit assemblies work synchronously. Each group of limit assemblies includes an elastically arranged hook 114 and a push block 14 fixedly connected to both sides of the closing cover 11. The push block 14 can be engaged with the hook 114 to limit the closing cover 11 of the printer.
[0022] Specifically, first, the base 1 serves as a supporting structure, and the closing cover 11 installed thereon can be opened and closed by rotation. The rubber roller 12 on the lower surface of the closing cover 11 helps to smoothly transport the paper. The print head 13 is fixed on the base 1 and is responsible for the printing task. The specially designed limit assembly is combined with the transmission assembly to achieve a stable limit on the closing cover 11. When the closing cover 11 is closed, the push blocks 14 on both sides thereof will be engaged with the elastically arranged hooks 114. This action is synchronously transmitted to the two sets of limit assemblies through the connecting shaft 115 to ensure that the closing cover 11 is firmly locked. When opening, the push block 14 can be easily released by overcoming the elastic force of the hook 114 to achieve the opening of the closing cover 11. A stable and reliable closing cover 11 limiting method is provided, which effectively prevents the printer from malfunctioning or being damaged due to accidental opening of the closing cover 11 during operation, thereby improving the overall stability and durability of the printer. At the same time, the operation is simple, and the opening and closing of the closing cover 11 can be completed without complicated steps, which greatly improves the convenience of use. Solved the problem that the left and right hands are out of sync, which can cause the printer cover to shake or pop open inconsistently when opening.
[0023] like Figure 3 As shown, each set of limiting components in this embodiment includes a fixed seat 17 fixedly connected to the end of the base 1, and a sliding groove 19 is opened on one side of the fixed seat 17. A sliding block 18 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 19. The sliding block 18 is a button switch, and the sliding block 18 can push a hook 114 elastically set at the end of the base 1.
[0024] Specifically, the core of each set of limit assembly lies in the cooperation between the fixed seat 17 and the sliding block 18. The fixed seat 17 is fixedly connected to the end of the base 1, and the sliding groove 19 thereon provides a guide for the sliding block 18. The sliding block 18 serves as a button switch and can move along the sliding groove 19. When the closing cover 11 needs to be opened, the sliding block 18 is pressed, and the sliding block 18 pushes the elastically set hook 114 to move so that it is disengaged from the push block 14 on the closing cover 11. When closing, the sliding block 18 is pressed again, and the closing cover 11 is rotated, and then the sliding block 18 is released to drive the hook 114 to move in the opposite direction and engage with the push block 14, thereby realizing the closing of the closing cover 11.
[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a guide surface 122 is provided on the upper surface of the hook 114, a locking surface 123 is provided on one side of the hook 114, a buckle surface 15 is provided on one side of the push block 14, and a sliding surface 16 is provided on the lower surface of the push block 14. The sliding surface 16 of the push block 14 will abut against and squeeze the guide surface 122 of the hook 114. After the hook 114 rotates at a certain angle, the locking surface 123 of the hook 114 will abut against the buckle surface 15 of the push block 14, thereby completing the locking.
[0026] Specifically, in the cooperation between the hook 114 and the push block 14, the guide surface 122 on the upper surface of the hook 114 plays a key role. When the sliding surface 16 of the push block 14 contacts and is squeezed by the guide surface 122, the hook 114 will rotate around its fixed point at a certain angle. This rotation allows the engaging surface 123 on one side of the hook 114 to gradually approach and eventually tightly abut against the buckle surface 15 on one side of the push block 14, thereby completing the engaging action and ensuring the stable locking of the closing cover 11. The closing cover 11 can be locked and unlocked through simple operations, thereby improving the convenience of the printer.
[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a positioning shaft 111 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing seat 17, and a torsion spring 110 is sleeved on the circumferential surface of the positioning shaft 111. A boss 120 is fixedly connected to one side of the hook 114, and a groove 121 is formed on one side of the boss 120. A pin of the torsion spring 110 abuts against the groove 121 for resetting the hook 114.
[0028] Specifically, a torsion spring 110 is sleeved on the positioning shaft 111 fixed to one side of the fixing seat 17, and one pin of the torsion spring 110 abuts against the groove 121 of the boss 120 fixed to one side of the hook 114. When the hook 114 is rotated by an external force, the torsion spring 110 will be compressed or stretched to store elastic potential energy. Once the external force disappears, the torsion spring 110 releases the potential energy and pushes the boss 120 and the hook 114 to rotate in the opposite direction through the pin, thereby realizing automatic resetting of the hook 114. This process ensures that the hook 114 can stably maintain its initial position when not subject to external force, and is ready for the next clamping action.
[0029] Embodiment 2: Figures 1 to 4 As shown, compared with Example 1, another implementation of the present invention is: the same connecting shaft 115 is inserted between the two hooks 114, and both ends of the connecting shaft 115 are fixedly connected to limiting columns 119, and both ends of the connecting shaft 115 are fixedly connected to protrusions 118, and the protrusions 118 are cylindrical. The cross-section of the limiting column 119 is "D"-shaped, and a "D"-shaped fixing hole 117 is provided at one end of the hook 114. One of the hooks 114 rotates to transfer the torque to the other hook 114 through the connecting shaft 115, so as to realize the synchronous opening and closing of the hook 114, and a positioning hole 113 is provided on one side of each fixing seat 17, and the positioning hole 113 can be inserted into the cylindrical protrusion 118.
[0030] Specifically, a connecting shaft 115 is inserted between the two hooks 114, and both ends of the connecting shaft 115 are fixedly connected to the limiting column 119 and the cylindrical protrusion 118. The D-shaped fixing hole 117 of the hook 114 cooperates with the limiting column 119 to ensure a stable connection between the connecting shaft 115 and the hook 114. When one of the hooks 114 is rotated by an external force, the torque will be quickly transmitted to the other hook 114 through the connecting shaft 115, so that the synchronous opening and closing of the two hooks 114 is realized. At the same time, each fixing seat 17 The positioning hole 113 on one side can be inserted into the cylindrical protrusion 118, further enhancing the stability between the connecting shaft 115 and the fixing seat 17, and preventing the connecting shaft 115 from loosening or falling off during the rotation process. This design not only realizes the synchronous opening and closing function of the two hooks 114, but also improves the stability and reliability of the entire locking mechanism. The D-shaped fixing hole 1177 of the hook 114 cooperates with the limiting column 119 to effectively prevent the connecting shaft 115 from deflecting or falling off during the rotation process, thereby ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the action of the hook 114.
[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the connecting shaft 115 is rotatably arranged on the upper surface of the base 1 , and the base 1 is provided with a long hole 124 at a position corresponding to the connecting shaft 115 , and the long hole 124 is used to limit the connecting shaft 115 .
[0032] Specifically, the connecting shaft 115 is rotatably set on the upper surface of the base 1 and is limited by the long hole 124 on the base 1. The design of the long hole 124 allows the connecting shaft 115 to rotate freely within a certain range while limiting its axial movement, ensuring that the synchronous opening and closing action of the hook 114 is stable and orderly.
[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a blocking block 112 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed seat 17. The blocking block 112 is used to block the hook 114, that is, to indirectly limit the sliding of the sliding block 18, and can prevent the hook 114 from being excessively reset and squeezed. A through hole 116 is opened at the position of the fixed seat 17 corresponding to the boss 120, and the boss 120 can move within the range of the through hole 116.
[0034] Specifically, the blocking block 112 fixedly connected to one side of the fixed seat 17 has the function of indirectly limiting the sliding of the sliding block 18 by blocking the boss 120 when the hook 114 is reset, thereby effectively preventing the hook 114 from being squeezed or damaged due to excessive reset. At the same time, a through hole 116 is provided at a position corresponding to the boss 120 on the fixed seat 17, allowing the boss 120 to move freely within the range of the through hole 116, ensuring that the hook 114 can move smoothly during the reset process, which not only enhances the stability and reliability of the latching mechanism, but also avoids the risk of damage caused by excessive reset of the hook 114. Through the cooperation of the blocking block 112 and the through hole 116, the reset action of the hook 114 is accurately controlled, thereby improving the overall safety and durability of use.
[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the two sliding blocks 18 slide along the sliding groove 19 at the same time, and the sliding blocks 18 squeeze the boss 120 to drive the two hooks 114 to rotate. After the rotation, the two hooks 114 release the engagement with the push blocks 14 at both ends of the closing cover 11, and then the closing cover 11 can be rotated.
[0036] Specifically, the two sliding blocks 18 slide along the sliding groove 19 at the same time, and this action squeezes the boss 120, thereby driving the two hooks 114 to rotate synchronously. When the hooks 114 rotate to a specific position, the engagement between them and the push blocks 14 at both ends of the closing cover 11 is released, and the closing cover 11 can rotate freely to achieve the opening and closing action.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, two fixing seats 17 are fixedly connected to the same connecting rod 2, a positioning rod 21 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting rod 2, a plurality of nozzle holes 22 are opened on one side of the positioning rod 21, and a fan is built in the positioning rod 21. When the printer starts working, text will be printed on the printing paper after the printing paper passes through the print head 13 and the rubber roller 12. The built-in fan of the positioning rod 21 is started, and the cold air blown out will act on the printing paper for quick drying.
[0038] Specifically, the two fixing seats 17 are firmly connected by the same connecting rod 2. A plurality of nozzles 22 are provided on a positioning rod 21 fixed to one side of the connecting rod 2, and a built-in fan is provided. When the printer starts working, the printing paper passes through the print head 13 and the rubber roller 12 in sequence to complete the text printing. Subsequently, the fan in the positioning rod 21 is started to blow out cold air through the nozzle 22, directly acting on the printing paper that has just been printed. The cold air is used to accelerate the drying of the ink and achieve a quick-drying effect, which not only improves the printing efficiency but also ensures the stability of the printing quality.
[0039] A portable printer synchronous opening and closing cover limiting method, the specific steps include: Step 1: Printing, first place the printing paper to be printed between the rubber roller 12 and the print head 13, then rotate the closing cover 11, so that the push blocks 14 at both ends of the closing cover 11 can be engaged with the fixing seat 17, thereby completing the position limiting of the one-point closing plate, and then start the printer to print after the position limiting is completed; Step 2: After printing is completed, unlock the closing cover 11, rotate the closing cover 11, and then take out the printed paper.
[0040] Working principle: first, the base 1 is used as a supporting structure, and the closing cover 11 installed thereon can be opened and closed by rotation. The rubber roller 12 on the lower surface of the closing cover 11 helps to smoothly transport the paper. The print head 13 is fixed on the base 1 and is responsible for the printing task. The specially designed limit assembly is combined with the transmission assembly. Specifically, through the cooperation of each group of limit assembly fixed seat 17 and sliding block 18, the fixed seat 17 is fixed to the end of the base 1, and the sliding groove 19 thereon provides a guide for the sliding block 18. The sliding block 18 is used as a button switch and can move along the sliding groove 19. When it is necessary to open the closing cover 11, press the sliding block 18, and the sliding block 18 pushes the elastically set hook 114 to move, so that it is disengaged from the push block 14 on the closing cover 11. When closing, press the sliding block 18 again, and rotate the closing cover 11, and then release the sliding block 18 to drive the hook 114 to move in the opposite direction and engage with the push block 14, thereby realizing the closing of the closing cover 11; In the cooperation between the hook 114 and the push block 14, the guide surface 122 on the upper surface of the hook 114 plays a key role. When the sliding surface 16 of the push block 14 contacts and is squeezed by the guide surface 122, the hook 114 rotates around its fixed point at a certain angle. This rotation enables the engaging surface 123 on one side of the hook 114 to gradually approach and finally tightly abut against the buckle surface 15 on one side of the push block 14, thereby completing the engaging action. The closed cover 11 is firmly limited. In addition, a torsion spring 110 is sleeved on the positioning shaft 111 fixed to one side of the fixing seat 17. One pin of the torsion spring 110 abuts against the groove 121 of the boss 120 fixed to one side of the hook 114. When the hook 114 is rotated by an external force, the torsion spring 110 will be compressed or stretched to store elastic potential energy. Once the external force disappears, the torsion spring 110 releases the potential energy and pushes the boss 120 and the hook 114 to rotate in the opposite direction through the pin, so that the hook 114 is automatically reset. This process ensures that the hook 114 can stably maintain its initial position when not subject to external force, so as to be ready for the next clamping action. In addition, the two fixing seats 17 are firmly connected by the same connecting rod 2. A plurality of nozzles 22 are provided on a positioning rod 21 fixed to one side of the connecting rod 2, and a fan is built in. When the printer starts working, the printing paper passes through the print head 13 and the rubber roller 12 in sequence to complete the text printing. Then, the fan in the positioning rod 21 is started to blow out cold air through the nozzles 22, directly acting on the printing paper just printed, and the cold air is used to accelerate the drying of the ink to achieve a quick drying effect, which not only improves the printing efficiency, but also ensures the stability of the printing quality. Finally, take the printed paper.
