DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0023] A paper cutter with a protective mechanism, combined Figures 1 to 3 As shown, it includes a chassis 1, and the chassis 1 is provided with a controller, a paper cutting mechanism, a paper pressing mechanism and a paper pushing mechanism, wherein the paper cutting mechanism is used to cut paper; the paper pressing mechanism is used to press the paper during the paper cutting mechanism cutting process; the paper pushing mechanism is used to push the paper after the paper is cut once, so as to achieve continuous paper cutting by the cutting mechanism; the controller is electrically connected to the paper cutting mechanism, the paper pressing mechanism and the paper pushing mechanism, respectively, so as to achieve automatic control of the paper cutter. Specifically, the specific structures of the paper cutting mechanism, the paper pressing mechanism and the paper pushing mechanism are all prior art, and are not limited or elaborated here.

[0024] The paper cutting mechanism comprises a cutter 5, and the cutter 5 can move up and down to cut the paper.

[0025] A control panel 3 is provided on the top front panel of the chassis 1. The control panel 3 is electrically connected to the controller and is used to realize human-computer interaction. An operation port 4 is provided at the front of the chassis 1. The operation port 4 is used to expose the cutter 5 when the cutter 5 moves downward. An operation table 2 is horizontally provided on the chassis 1. The operation table 2 passes through the bottom of the operation port 4 and protrudes from the front of the chassis 1. The operation table 2 is used to place the paper to be cut, so that the paper can be cut after the cutter 5 falls. In order to prevent people from putting their limbs into the dangerous area of ​​the cutter and avoid injuries, a protective mechanism is provided on the chassis 1. The protective mechanism includes a fixed protective cover 6 and a movable protective cover 8.

[0026] The fixed protective cover 6 is fixedly arranged on both sides of the front of the chassis 1 and spans the upper rear area of ​​the operating table 2 near the operating port 4 and extends forward and downward. Specifically, the fixed protective cover 6 includes two fixed fan-shaped side panels 61 and a fixed arc-shaped top panel 62, wherein the two fixed fan-shaped side panels 61 are respectively fixedly connected to both sides of the front of the chassis 1 and extend forward and downward; a fixed arc-shaped top panel 62 is arranged between the two fixed fan-shaped side panels 61. The fixed protective cover 6 can cover the rear of the operating table 2 from the upper rear of the operating table 2 near the operating port 4.

[0027] The movable protective cover 8 is rotatably arranged on both sides of the front of the chassis 1 and spans over the operating table 2 and can cooperate with the fixed protective cover 6 to cover the operating table 2 and the operating port 4. The specific movable protective cover 8 includes two movable fan-shaped side panels 81 and a movable fan-shaped top panel 82, wherein the two movable protective covers 8 are rotatably connected to the chassis 1 through the mounting shafts 7 installed on both sides of the front of the chassis 1, and the two movable protective covers 8 are respectively located on the outside of the connected fixed fan-shaped side panels 61; a movable fan-shaped top panel 82 is arranged between the two movable fan-shaped side panels 81 and on the outside of the fixed arc-shaped top panel 62. When the movable protective cover 8 is rotated downward, the top end of the movable protective cover 8 is located outside the bottom end of the fixed protective cover 6, the bottom of the movable protective cover 8 abuts against the front end of the operating table 2, and the movable protective cover 8 is closed, thereby covering the operating table 2 and the operating port 4 to prevent people from putting their limbs into the dangerous area of ​​the cutter and avoiding personal injury; when the movable protective cover 8 is rotated upward, the bottom end of the movable protective cover 8 is located outside the bottom end of the fixed protective cover 6, and the movable protective cover 8 is opened, thereby exposing the operating table 2 and the operating port 4, making it convenient for operators to take and put paper.

[0028] In order to prevent the operator's arm from being injured by the paper cutting mechanism being mistakenly activated when placing paper under the cutter 5 or taking out the cut paper on the operating table 2 from under the cutter 5 through the operating table 2 and the operating port 4, a lower pressure strip 83 is provided at the bottom edge of the movable fan-shaped top plate 82. A groove is provided at the front end of the upper surface of the operating table 2, and the groove is used to accommodate the lower pressure strip 83 when the movable protective cover 8 is closed. A pressure sensor is provided inside the groove. When the movable protective cover 8 is closed, the lower pressure strip 83 will generate pressure on the pressure sensor, so that the pressure sensor detects the pressure signal generated by the closing of the movable protective cover 8, and the output end of the pressure sensor is connected to the input end of the controller. When the controller receives the pressure signal detected by the pressure sensor, it means that the operator's arm has left the operating table 2. At this time, the controller will control the paper cutting mechanism to control the movement of the cutter 5, thereby preventing the paper cutting mechanism from being mistakenly activated and causing harm to the operator. When the movable protective cover 8 is opened, the pressure sensor will not detect the pressure signal generated by the movable protective cover 8, and the controller will drive the paper cutting mechanism to lift the cutter 5 and cut off the circuit driving the paper cutting mechanism to prevent the operator from accidentally starting the paper cutter and causing personal injury due to the cutter 4 cutting down.

[0029] A handle 84 is provided at the lower portion of the outer surface of the movable sector-shaped top plate 82 , and the handle 84 can be used to facilitate opening and closing of the movable protective cover 8 , thereby facilitating the taking and placing of paper.

[0030] The inner side surface of the movable sector-shaped side plate 81 and the outer side surface of the fixed sector-shaped side plate 61 are slidably assembled through the provided protrusions and grooves, thereby ensuring the stability of the movable protective cover 8 during the opening and closing process.

[0031] Both the fixed protective cover 6 and the movable protective cover 8 are transparent covers, so that the cutting condition of the paper can be observed easily.

[0032] When the utility model is in use, the fixed protective cover 6 and the movable protective cover 8 are provided to cover the operating table 2 and the operating port 4, so as to prevent people from putting their limbs into the dangerous area of ​​the cutter 5. When the operator opens the movable protective cover 8 to take or put paper, the pressure sensor provided in the groove will not detect the pressure signal generated by the movable protective cover 8, and the controller will drive the paper cutting mechanism to lift the cutter 5 and cut off the circuit driving the paper cutting mechanism to prevent the operator from accidentally starting the paper cutter and causing the cutter 4 to cut down and cause personal injury. When the operator puts the paper and closes the movable protective cover 8, the pressure sensor provided in the groove will send the detected pressure information to the controller, and the controller will connect the circuit driving the paper cutting mechanism and drive the paper cutting mechanism to control the movement of the cutter 5 to complete the paper cutting.
