Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of photo cutting and processing equipment, specifically to an electric photo cutting card machine. Background Technology

[0002] In industries such as ID photo shooting, quick printing, and photography services, small standard photos such as one-inch and two-inch are frequently used and essential products. Currently, the industry generally uses a centralized typesetting and printing method to produce ID photos, which involves batch-printing multiple standard-sized photos onto the same sheet of photo paper. After printing, a cutting and separation process is required to cut the multiple contiguous photos into individual standard photos before the finished product can be delivered and used.

[0003] Currently, for the cutting of small, continuous photos, the industry mainly relies on simple equipment such as scissors and manual guillotine paper cutters for manual cutting. This method depends entirely on human eye alignment and manual operation, and is only suitable for processing very small batches of photos. In batch cutting operations, manual operation is prone to problems such as misalignment, skewed cutting edges, and excessive size deviations. Cutting accuracy is difficult to maintain, resulting in poor consistency in the specifications of finished photos and a high defect rate. At the same time, manual cutting is tedious, labor-intensive, and the number of photos that can be processed by a single person at a time is limited, resulting in extremely low overall efficiency. It cannot meet the needs of photo studios and print shops for large-volume, fast-paced photo processing.

[0004] Therefore, in order to address the above-mentioned technical problems, it is necessary to provide an electric card cutter for photo cutting. Summary of the Invention

[0018] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] An electric card cutter for cutting photos according to one embodiment of the present invention is used to automatically cut continuous standard-sized photos after printing, and can quickly divide multiple photos connected together into independent single photos.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the electric photo cutting machine in this embodiment includes a pair of frames 1, a cutting assembly, a motor 3, and an alignment assembly. The frame 1 has a placement table 101 with a first opening 1011. The cutting assembly includes a pair of cutter boxes 2, which are used for horizontal and vertical cutting of the photo, respectively, and are respectively installed at the placement table 101 positions on the corresponding frames 1.

[0021] The cutter box 2 has an internal installation space. A second opening 201 is provided on the cutter box 2, penetrating through it and matching the first opening 1011 on the placement table 101, allowing the cut photograph to pass through the channel formed by the first opening 1011 and the second opening 201. Inside the cutter box 2, a pair of rotating rods 21 are rotatably connected, arranged opposite each other along the interior of the cutter box 2. Each rotating rod 21 is fixedly connected to multiple corresponding contact wheels 22 and a set of blades 23. The contact wheels 22 are used to assist in conveying the photograph during the cutting process, while the blade sets 23 are used for the actual cutting of the photograph. The arrangement of multiple blade sets 23 allows the equipment to cut photographs according to preset dimensions, improving the efficiency of a single processing cycle.

[0022] Motor 3 is installed inside frame 1, serving as the power source for cutting. A second gear 4 is fixedly connected to its output shaft. One end of rotating rod 21 passes through cutter box 2 and extends outside of it. A first gear 211 is fixedly connected to the end of rotating rod 21 extending out of cutter box 2, meshing with the second gear 4. When the equipment is started, motor 3 drives the second gear 4 to rotate, which in turn drives the meshing first gear 211 to rotate, causing rotating rod 21 to rotate synchronously. This, in turn, drives the contact wheel 22 and blade assembly 23 mounted on rotating rod 21 to rotate, thus achieving automatic feeding and cutting of photos entering the cutting area.

[0023] The alignment assembly is used to adjust the position of the photograph so that the position to be cut on the photograph corresponds to the blade assembly 23. The alignment assembly includes a backing plate 11 and a pair of limiting plates 14. The backing plate 11 is mounted on the frame 1, and one end face of the backing plate 11 corresponds to the first opening 1011. The pair of limiting plates 14 are mounted at the opposite flange positions of the backing plate 11. A third bolt 15 is inserted through the limiting plate 14, and a third threaded hole 112 matching the third bolt 15 is opened on the flange of the backing plate 11. Through the cooperation of the third bolt 15 and the third threaded hole 112, the limiting plate 14 can be mounted on the backing plate 11 and its position can be adjusted according to the actual processing requirements.

[0024] Furthermore, a spring 16 is provided between the limiting plate 14 and the backing plate 11. One end of the spring 16 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 14, and the other end is fixedly connected to the flange position of the backing plate 11. By adjusting the distance between the pair of limiting plates 14, a limiting space matching the size of the photo to be processed is formed between the limiting plates 14.

[0025] In use, after starting the equipment, the operator places the contiguous photographs to be cut between a pair of limiting plates 14, with one side of the photograph resting against the backing plate 11. The limiting plates 14 constrain both sides of the photograph, keeping it in the predetermined position. Since the backing plate 11 corresponds to the first opening 1011 and the second opening 201, when the photograph is released, the area to be cut can accurately pass through the blade assembly 23 inside the cutter box 2, thus completing a precise cut. The photograph is first cut laterally by one of the cutting components, and then cut longitudinally by the other cutting component, ultimately forming multiple independent standard-sized photographs.

[0026] Furthermore, to enhance the restraining effect of the photograph when entering the cutting area, in this embodiment, a post 141 is integrally formed on the limiting plate 14. The post 141 matches the second opening 201 and can be inserted through the second opening 201 into the cutter box 2. By extending the limiting constraint distance through the post 141, the photograph can maintain a more stable posture before entering the cutting position of the blade assembly 23, avoiding cutting deviation caused by photograph movement and improving cutting accuracy.

[0027] Furthermore, to facilitate equipment maintenance and cutting adjustments for photos of different sizes, this embodiment features a detachable cutting box 2. A hinged column 19 is fixedly connected to the frame 1, and a backing plate 11 is rotatably and slidably connected to the hinged column 19. A waist-shaped hole 142 is provided on the limiting plate 14, and a third bolt 15 passes through the waist-shaped hole 142. When it is necessary to disassemble or replace the cutting box 2, the limiting plate 14 can be pulled upwards to remove the insert 141 from the cutting box. Then, the backing plate 11 can be rotated to move away from the cutting box 2, facilitating the disassembly and replacement of the corresponding size cutting box 2 by the operator, thus improving the equipment's applicability and maintenance convenience.

[0028] To ensure the positioning accuracy of the backing plate 11 after reset, a pair of limiting posts 17 are fixedly connected to the frame 1 in this embodiment. When the backing plate 11 rotates and resets and contacts the limiting posts 17, the limiting posts 17 can limit the backing plate 11, so that the upper end surface of the backing plate 11 maintains the positional relationship corresponding to the first opening 1011 and the second opening 201, thereby ensuring that the photo transport path and the cutting path are consistent and improving the stability of equipment operation.

[0029] Furthermore, the backing plate 11 in this embodiment also has a position fine-tuning function. A second threaded hole 111 is provided at the flange position of the backing plate 11, and a second bolt 13 is rotatably connected in the second threaded hole 111. A groove 18 corresponding to the second bolt 13 is provided on the frame 1. The handle of the second bolt 13 can be inserted into the groove 18 and limited by the side wall of the frame 1. When the second bolt 13 is rotated, the position of the backing plate 11 on the frame 1 can be pushed or adjusted, so that the backing plate 11 can be adaptively adjusted according to photos of different sizes and specifications, thereby further improving the versatility of the equipment.

[0030] In this embodiment, the frame 1 has a slot 102 corresponding to the placement platform 101, and the placement platform 101 has a first threaded hole 1012. A first bolt 12 is threaded into the first threaded hole 1012. The cutter box 2 has a fourth threaded hole 202 corresponding to the first threaded hole 1012. When the cutter box 2 is installed into the slot 102 and fits against the bottom wall of the slot 102, the second opening 201 can accurately correspond to the first opening 1011. At the same time, the first threaded hole 1012 and the fourth threaded hole 202 maintain a longitudinal correspondence. In addition, the cutter box 2 has a cover 24 at both ends, which protrudes from the outside of the cutter box 2. The distance between the pair of cover 24 matches the width of the placement platform 101. When installing the cutter box 2, the pair of cover 24 can be locked onto the outside of the placement platform 101 to perform lateral positioning of the cutter box 2, so that the first threaded hole 1012 and the fourth threaded hole 202 maintain a lateral correspondence, which facilitates the quick and accurate positioning of the cutter box 2 during installation. By rotating the first bolt 12, the first bolt 12 is screwed into the fourth threaded hole 202, thus achieving the fixed installation of the cutter box 2.

[0031] In this embodiment, during use, the alignment components are first adjusted according to the size specifications of the photos to be processed, so that a limiting space matching the size of the photos is formed between a pair of limiting plates 14. At the same time, the corresponding size of the cutter box 2 is installed according to the processing requirements. Then, the motor 3 is started, and the motor 3 drives the rotating rod 21 to rotate through the second gear 4 and the first gear 211. The operator places the continuous photos to be cut on the placement table 101 and makes it close to the abutment plate 11. Under the restriction of the limiting plates 14, the photos maintain a fixed direction and enter the transverse cutting area. The contact wheel 22 drives the photos to move, and the cutter group 23 completes the transverse cutting in sequence. Then, the transversely cut photos are sent into the cutting component with the longitudinal cutting function, so that the continuous photos are quickly divided into multiple independent standard-sized photos.

[0032] With the above structure, the electric photo cutting machine provided in this embodiment achieves continuous automatic photo cutting by setting two sets of cutting components, one horizontal and one vertical; by setting a motor drive structure, it reduces the intensity of manual operation and improves processing efficiency; by setting an adjustable alignment component, it can accurately position photos of different sizes; and by setting a detachable cutter box structure, it improves the convenience of equipment maintenance and the adaptability to specifications, thereby effectively solving the problems of low efficiency, inaccurate positioning, and poor consistency of finished products in the existing manual cutting process.

[0033] like Figure 6 As shown, the electric photo cutting machine also includes a foot switch 5 and a receiving plate 6. The foot switch 5 is electrically connected to the motor 3. Specifically, the foot switch 5 is connected to the control circuit of the motor 3 via a wire. The operator can control the start and stop of the motor 3 by stepping on the foot switch 5, thereby controlling the operation of the cutting machine without manually operating the switch, facilitating the adjustment of the photos to be cut, and improving operational safety and convenience.

[0034] The receiving plate 6 is located below the card cutter and is used to receive the cut photos. The receiving plate 6 can be fixedly connected to the machine body, or it can be detachably connected by means of buckles, plugs, or screws; its surface can be set horizontally or at a certain angle so that the photos can slide down smoothly and be collected in a concentrated manner.

[0035] Furthermore, the splicing plate 6 can also be provided with guard edges on both sides to prevent photos from slipping off the sides. The surface of the splicing plate 6 can be provided with a smooth layer or a flexible padding layer to reduce scratches or wear on the photos.
