Thus, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of this application, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0036] There are different specifications for thermal printing paper nowadays, but only one fixed specification of thermal printing paper can be installed on the current rapid imaging cameras, and its application range is relatively narrow, which affects the user experience to a certain extent.

[0037] This embodiment provides a rapid imaging camera 100, which can be fixedly mounted with printing papers 60 of various sizes and types, so that users can print required images according to their own needs.

[0038] See also Figures 1 to 8 In this embodiment, the rapid imaging camera 100 includes a body 10, at least two replaceable print heads 20, and at least two paper storage bins.

[0039] The body 10 is used to capture images and generate image signals, and a first mounting cavity 16 and a second mounting cavity 17 are provided in the body 10. Each print head 20 can be detachably connected in the first mounting cavity 16 and electrically connected to the body 10, so that the print head 20 can receive the image signal transmitted by the body 10 and print the image.

[0040] Each paper storage bin is disposed in the second installation cavity 17 of the body 10 , and each paper storage bin has a receiving chamber for accommodating printing paper 60 .

[0041] The sizes of printing papers 60 that can be accommodated in the accommodating chambers of different paper storage bins are different to adapt to different print heads 20 so that the instant imaging camera 100 can print different types of photos.

[0042] The print head 20 is detachably connected to the body 10, so that the print head 20 of the rapid imaging camera 100 can be replaced. The user can replace the print head 20 of different sizes or types according to their own needs. There are multiple paper storage bins, which can accommodate printing papers 60 of different sizes. This can realize the printing of color, black and white or different sizes of photos. It greatly expands the application scope of the camera, and the usage methods are diverse, which improves the user experience.

[0043] It should be understood that the multiple print heads 20 in this embodiment can be printing devices of different sizes, and each print head 20 can print pictures of different sizes. The multiple print heads 20 can also be printing devices that print different colors, for example, some print heads 20 can print color pictures, and some print heads 20 can print black and white pictures. Of course, the multiple print heads 20 can also be printing devices with different imaging principles, such as some thermal print heads 20, ZINK (zero ink) print heads 20, etc.

[0044] Correspondingly, the printing paper 60 in this embodiment can also be printing paper 60 of different widths, or printing paper 60 of different types. It can be selected according to actual needs, such as ZINK (zero ink) printing paper 60, printing paper 60 with adhesive backing, etc. If the ZINK print head 20 and ZINK printing paper 60 are replaced, it can be used to print color photos. If the printing paper 60 with adhesive backing is replaced, the printed photos can be pasted, which greatly improves the fun of use.

[0045] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the body 10 includes a lens 11 and an optical imaging module. The lens 11 is used to capture an optical image and transmit the optical image to the optical imaging module, and generate an image signal.

[0046] The optical imaging module includes a photosensitive device and a processing module. The photosensitive device may be a CMOS or CCD sensor, which is used to capture light from the lens 11 and convert it into a digital image signal. The processing module is electrically connected to the photosensitive device, and is used to process the digital image signal converted by the photosensitive device, and transmit the processed digital image signal to the print head 20 for printing.

[0047] Please continue to refer to 1. In some embodiments, a flash 13 is further provided on the front face of the body 10. The flash 13 can be used to provide fill light for the object to be photographed.

[0048] A detachable battery 15 is also provided in the body 10 , and the battery 15 is electrically connected to the processing module to provide power for the whole.

[0049] A hot shoe 14 is also provided on the top of the body 10 so that the rapid imaging camera 100 can be quickly connected to photographic equipment such as a soft light cover, a fill light, an external flash device, etc., so as to improve the imaging quality of the camera.

[0050] like Figure 2 As shown, the body 10 is also provided with a viewfinder 12, which can be an optical or electronic viewfinder 12, for the user to compose and preview images when shooting. The optical viewfinder 12 can directly see the image through the lens 11 through a reflector or prism system; the electronic viewfinder 12 displays the image captured by the sensor through a display screen.

[0051] See also Figure 4 In some embodiments, a pin 162 is disposed in the first installation cavity 16 of the body 10 , and a socket 21 corresponding to the pin 162 is disposed on the print head 20 .

[0052] The pin 162 and the socket 21 can be plugged and electrically connected, so that when the print head 20 is fixed to the first installation cavity 16, the print head 20 is electrically connected to the imaging module of the body 10. By plugging the socket 21 on the body 10 and the pin 162 on the print head 20, the connection efficiency of the print head 20 and the body 10 during disassembly or installation can be higher.

[0053] See also Figure 1 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the rapid imaging camera 100 further includes a door 40 .

[0054] The door 40 includes a first side and a second side that are arranged opposite to each other. The first side of the door 40 is rotatably connected to the body 10, and the second side of the door 40 is engaged with the print head 20 in the first installation cavity 16, so that the door 40 closes the openings of the first installation cavity 16 and the second installation cavity 17. At this time, the second side of the door 40 is spaced apart from the body 10 to form a paper outlet 43 corresponding to the print head 20.

[0055] Specifically, the outer edge of the first side of the door 40 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the second installation cavity 17 of the body 10 via a rotating shaft, so that the door 40 can rotate around the extension line of the first side. When the door 40 rotates to cover the openings of the first installation cavity 16 and the second installation cavity 17, the door 40 and the print head on the body 10 are fixed to each other by being clipped or fixed to the body 10 by magnetic attraction.

[0056] At this time, the edge of the second side of the compartment door 40 is spaced from the body 10 to form a paper outlet 43 , and the position of the paper outlet 43 is opposite to the position of the print head 20 , so that the photos printed by the print head 20 can be delivered from the paper outlet 43 .

[0057] like Figure 1As shown, in some embodiments, a raised door handle 41 is provided on the outer wall of the second side of the door 40 , and the door handle 41 can facilitate the user to pull the door 40 so that the door 40 can be opened conveniently.

[0058] See also Figures 3 to 5 In some embodiments, the rapid imaging camera 100 further includes a paper output roller 50 .

[0059] The paper discharge roller 50 is rotatably disposed on the inner wall of the second side of the compartment door 40 and is located at the edge of the paper discharge port 43. A first gear 51 is disposed at one end of the paper discharge roller 50, and a second gear 23 matching the first gear 51 is disposed on the print head 20. The second gear 23 on the print head 20 can mesh with the first gear 51 on the paper discharge roller 50 to drive the paper discharge roller 50 to rotate, so that the printed photos are delivered from the paper discharge port 43.

[0060] Specifically, two raised positioning blocks 44 are provided on the inner wall of the second side of the bin door 40, and the paper discharge roller 50 is rotatably connected to the two positioning blocks 44. The first gear 51 is fixed to one end of the paper discharge roller 50, and the second gear 23 is fixed to the print head 20 and corresponds to the first gear 51.

[0061] The second gear 23 is driven by a driving motor in the print head 20. When the compartment door 40 closes the openings of the first installation cavity 16 and the second installation cavity 17, the paper output roller 50 is located between the print head 20 and the inner wall of the compartment door 40. The first gear 51 on the paper output roller 50 and the second gear 23 on the print head 20 are meshed with each other. After the printing paper 60 is printed by the print head 20, it is sent out after passing through the paper output roller 50 and the paper output port 43.

[0062] It is important to understand that Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the paper output roller 50 is provided with a plurality of mutually spaced mounting positions along the axial direction, and the mounting positions are used to fix the first gear 51 so that the position of the first gear 51 on the paper output roller 50 can be relatively adjusted to adapt to print heads 20 of different sizes.

[0063] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the rapid imaging camera 100 further includes a sawtooth piece 42. The sawtooth piece 42 is fixed on the second side of the compartment door 40, and the sawtooth piece 42 is located at the edge of the paper outlet 43 so as to be able to cut the printing paper 60.

[0064] Specifically, the sawtooth piece 42 has a plurality of triangular saw teeth arranged side by side, and when the door 40 is closed, the triangular saw teeth of the sawtooth piece 42 are located at the lower edge of the paper outlet 43. After the printed printing paper 60 is delivered from the paper outlet 43, the user can cut the printing paper 60 by pulling the printing paper 60 downward.

[0065] See also Figure 4 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, a detachable connection method between the print head 20 and the first mounting cavity 16 is also provided.

[0066] The print head 20 is provided with a first connection portion 22, and the first installation cavity 16 of the body 10 is provided with a second connection portion 161 corresponding to the first connection portion 22. The first connection portion 22 and the second connection portion 161 are detachably connected, so that the print head 20 is detachably connected to the body 10.

[0067] In some embodiments, there are multiple first connecting parts 22, and the first connecting parts 22 on each print head 20 have the same size; and the intervals between adjacent first connecting parts 22 on each print head 20 are equal, so that print heads 20 of different sizes can be fixed in the first mounting cavity 16.

[0068] Furthermore, the first connection portion 22 is a hole-shaped structure formed on the print head 20; the second connection portion 161 is a hole-shaped structure formed on the first mounting cavity 16 of the body 10. The instant imaging camera 100 further includes a first connection member 24, which is fixedly disposed through the first connection portion 22 and the second connection portion 161, so that the print head 20 is fixed in the first mounting cavity 16.

[0069] For example, Figure 7 As shown, the first connecting member 24 is a screw, the first connecting portion 22 is two through holes spaced apart from each other, and the second connecting portion 161 is two threaded holes spaced apart from each other. The screw passes through the through hole on the print head 20 and is connected to the threaded hole on the body 10 to fix the print head 20 to the body 10. Fixing the print head 20 with the screw not only satisfies the detachability of the print head 20 from the body 10, but also satisfies the stability of the print head 20.

[0070] It should be understood that the shapes, sizes and adjacent spacing distances of the first connecting portions 22 on the print heads 20 of different sizes are the same, so that they can all be installed in the first installation cavity 16 .

[0071] It is conceivable that, in some other embodiments, the first connection portion 22 on the print head 20 and the second connection portion 161 on the body 10 may also be detachably connected by means of mutual snap-fitting, mortise and tenon connection, etc.

[0072] See also Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the paper storage bin includes a first paper storage bin 171 and a second paper storage bin 30 .

[0073] The first paper storage bin 171 is disposed in the second installation cavity 17 of the machine body, and is used to accommodate printing paper of a first size so that it can match the printing head of the first size.

[0074] The second paper storage bin 30 is detachably connected to the body 10 , and is used to accommodate printing paper of a second size, wherein the first size is larger than the second size.

[0075] The first size is selected for both the print head 20 and the print paper 60, which is the maximum size of the image that can be printed by the camera. At this time, the second paper storage bin 30 does not need to be connected to the body 10, and the print paper 60 is directly placed in the first paper storage bin 171 to fix the print paper 60.

[0076] When the printing paper 60 of the second size needs to be replaced, the second paper storage bin 30 can be fixed in the first paper storage bin 171 of the body 10 , and the printing paper 60 can be accommodated and positioned through the accommodation chamber 32 in the second paper storage bin 30 .

[0077] It should be understood that the second size is a non-fixed size, and by detachably connecting the second paper storage bin 30 to the body 10, the user can replace the second paper storage bin 30 with a different size of the accommodation chamber 32 to match the printing paper 60 of multiple sizes, so that the instant imaging camera 100 has higher universal performance.

[0078] In this embodiment, in order to improve the installation stability of the second paper storage bin 30 , a stepped installation position 172 is further provided on the first paper storage bin 171 of the body 10 to limit the second paper storage bin 30 to improve the installation stability of the second paper storage bin 30 .

[0079] See also Figure 6 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, a detachable connection method between the second paper storage bin 30 and the body 10 is also provided.

[0080] The second paper storage bin 30 is provided with a third connection portion 31, and the fuselage 10 is provided with a fourth connection portion 173 corresponding to the third connection portion 31. The third connection portion 31 and the fourth connection portion 173 are detachably connected, so that the second paper storage bin 30 is detachably connected to the fuselage 10.

[0081] In some embodiments, there are multiple third connecting parts 31, the third connecting parts 31 on each second paper storage bin 30 have the same size, and the intervals between adjacent third connecting parts 31 on each second paper storage bin 30 are equal; so that second paper storage bins 30 of different sizes can be interconnected with the fuselage 10.

[0082] Furthermore, the third connection portion 31 is a hole-shaped structure formed on the second paper storage bin 30, and the fourth connection portion 173 is a hole-shaped structure formed on the body 10. The rapid imaging camera 100 further includes a second connection member 33, which is fixedly disposed through the third connection portion 31 and the fourth connection portion 173, so that the second paper storage bin 30 is fixed in the installation position 172 of the body 10.

[0083] For example, the second connecting member 33 is also a screw, the third connecting portion 31 in the second paper storage bin 30 is two through holes, and the fourth connecting portion 173 in the installation position 172 of the body 10 is two threaded holes. The screw passes through the through hole in the second paper storage bin 30 and is connected with the threaded hole to fix the second paper storage bin 30 on the body 10.

[0084] It is conceivable that the third connection portion 31 on the second paper storage bin 30 and the fourth connection portion 173 on the body 10 can also be connected detachably to the second paper storage bin 30 and the body 10 by means of snap connection, mortise and tenon connection or interference fit.

[0085] In summary, the present application provides a rapid imaging camera 100, whose print head 20 and second paper storage bin 30 are detachably connected to the body 10, so that the print head 20 and second paper storage bin 30 of the rapid imaging camera 100 can be replaced, so that users can replace print heads 20 and second paper storage bins 30 of different sizes or types according to their own needs to print color, black and white or different sizes of photos. It greatly expands the scope of application of the camera, and the usage methods are diverse, which improves the user experience.
