Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of thermal printers, and in particular to an easy-tear paper device for a thermal printer. Background Art
[0002] The working principle of a thermal printer is that a semiconductor heating element is installed on the print head. After the print head is heated and contacts the thermal printing paper, the required pattern can be printed. Its principle is similar to that of a thermal fax machine. The image is generated by heating and causing a chemical reaction in the film. The chemical reaction of this thermal printer is carried out at a certain temperature. High temperature will accelerate this chemical reaction.
[0003] For example, the publication number CN219236576U discloses a thermal printer, the main points of its technical solution are: comprising a fixed frame, the internal fixed sleeve of the fixed frame is connected with a thermal printer body, the top surface of the thermal printer body is provided with a top cover; a cutting component, the cutting component is arranged on the top surface of the top cover, and is used to cut the labels printed by the thermal printer body, the cutting component comprises a discharge port, the discharge port is opened on the top surface of the top cover, the top surface of the top cover is fixedly installed with a discharge frame, one side of the discharge frame is provided with a cutting port, through the mutual cooperation between the discharge frame, the thermal printer body, the top cover, the discharge port, the fixed block, the fixed plate, the fixed box, the sliding block, the first sliding groove, the second sliding groove, the blade and the anti-wear plate, the label is cut and separated by the sliding of the blade, avoiding the need for the staff to manually tear the label from the discharge frame, which easily causes the label to be torn and damaged.
[0004] However, in the above case, the cutting teeth cannot be replaced. When the label needs to be printed, the thermal printer body is operated, and the printed label is moved out from the discharge port on the discharge frame. The moving block moves under the rotation of the threaded rod, and the cutting teeth connected to one side of the moving block cut and separate the label in the discharge port as the moving block moves. Since the cutting teeth will wear out after long-term use, the cutting teeth cannot separate the labels accurately and quickly, and the staff needs to dismantle the discharge frame and replace the cutting teeth. The operation is complicated, time-consuming and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content
