DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0022] See also Figure 1 - Figure 6 As shown, a moisture-proof toner cartridge comprises a toner cartridge body 1, a pair of mounting cavities 2 are provided at the top of the toner cartridge body 1, a storage box 3 is slidably connected to the inside of the pair of mounting cavities 2, a storage cavity 4 is provided at the top of the storage box 3, a slide groove 5 is provided at the bottom of the storage box 3, a baffle 6 is slidably connected to the inside of the storage cavity 4, a mounting mechanism and a disassembly mechanism are respectively provided inside the slide groove 5, the mounting mechanism is used for quickly connecting the storage box 3 with the toner cartridge body 1, and the disassembly mechanism is used for quickly separating the storage box 3 from the toner cartridge body 1.

[0023] The desiccant bag is placed inside the toner cartridge, and the toner cartridge is installed inside the printer by bolt connection. When the printer is working, the laser beam is adjusted and focused by the photoconductive device and then directed to the surface of the toner cartridge. The selenium element in the toner cartridge converts the laser beam into a charge image. The photosensitive material covered on the surface of the toner cartridge absorbs the laser beam to form charged particles with a ground state of charge. The charged particles will generate charges to form a charge image, so that a negative charge layer is formed on the surface of the toner cartridge. The charged particles are attracted by the charged toner to form a pattern required for printing. The toner forms an image with charge on the toner cartridge, and the toner on the toner cartridge is transferred to the paper. Through high temperature and pressure, the toner is melted and transferred to the paper to complete the printing process. However, when replacing the desiccant bag, it is necessary to use specific tools to remove and install the bolts, which brings a certain degree of inconvenience to the user. In order to solve the above problem, when using this embodiment, first slide the baffle 6, place the desiccant bag inside the storage chamber 4, and the desiccant bag can be removed from the storage chamber 4. When the storage box 3 is in the state of being removed, the desiccant bag 2 can be quickly removed and the desiccant bag 2 can be quickly removed.

[0024] like Figure 2 - Figure 5As shown, the mounting mechanism includes three groups of first springs 7, the bottom ends of the three groups of first springs 7 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the mounting cavity 2, the top ends of the three groups of first springs 7 are fixedly connected to a support plate 8, the bottom end of the mounting cavity 2 is fixedly connected to a fixing rod 9, the top end of the fixing rod 9 is fixedly connected to a semicircular plate 10, the semicircular plate 10 is inside the slide groove 5, the bottom end of the semicircular plate 10 is attached to a card block 11, the outer side of the storage box 3 is provided with a mounting groove, the inner sliding groove of the mounting groove is A limiting circular plate 12 is connected, and the limiting circular plate 12 is fixedly connected to the clamping block 11. A pair of limiting rods 13 are arranged inside the mounting groove, and one end of the limiting rods 13 is fixedly connected to a connecting circular plate 14, and the connecting circular plate 14 is fixedly connected to the mounting groove. One end of the limiting rods 13 away from the mounting groove is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove. The limiting rods 13 pass through the limiting circular plate 12, and a second spring 15 is fixedly connected between the connecting circular plate 14 and the limiting circular plate 12.

[0025] The storage box 3 is moved downward along the inner wall of the installation cavity 2. When the storage box 3 moves downward, the card block 11 is driven to move downward. When the card block 11 moves downward, the inclined surface of the card block 11 will first contact the arc surface of the semicircular plate 10. The card block 11 continues to move downward and will be blocked by the semicircular plate 10. The card block 11 is forced to drive the limiting circular plate 12 to move along the limiting rod 13. During the movement of the limiting circular plate 12, the second spring 15 is squeezed, causing the second spring 15 to deform and generate elastic potential energy. When the card block 11 passes over the semicircular plate 10, the squeezing of the semicircular plate 10 on the card block 11 ends, the force on the second spring 15 ends, and the card block 11 is released instantly. The first spring 7 releases its elastic potential energy and drives the storage box 3 to reset through the limiting circular plate 12. At this time, the storage box 3 moves down a distance that just squeezes the support plate 8. The support plate 8 is forced to squeeze the first spring 7, causing the first spring 7 to deform and generate elastic potential energy. Then the movement of the storage box 3 is ended, and the first spring 7 releases its elastic potential energy, pushing the storage box 3 to reset through the support plate 8. During the resetting process of the storage box 3, the block 11 is just engaged with the bottom end of the semicircular plate 10. On the resetting route of the storage box 3, the block 11 is blocked by the semicircular plate 10 and cannot complete the reset, thereby realizing the function of quickly installing the storage box 3.

[0026] like Figure 3 - Figure 6 As shown, the disassembly mechanism includes a fixing ring 16, which is fixedly connected to the outer side of the fixing rod 9. A slider 17 is provided at the top of the fixing ring 16. The slider 17 is slidably connected to the outer side of the fixing rod 9, and the diameter of the slider 17 is larger than the diameter of the semicircular plate 10.

[0027] When removing the storage box 3, it is only necessary to continue to move the storage box 3 downward. The storage box 3 now drives the card block 11 to press the slider 17 downward. The card block 11 is forced to move in the direction of the second spring 15, and the second spring 15 is forced to deform through the limiting circular plate 12. When the card block 11 passes through the center of the slider 17, the card block 11 contacts the arc surface of the lower half of the slider 17. At this time, the card block 11 is pulled upward by the storage box 3. When the card block 11 moves upward, since the card block 11 contacts the arc surface of the lower half of the slider 17, the card block 11 will drive the slider 17 synchronously. When the slider 17 contacts the semicircular plate 10, the slider 17 cannot move upward any further. However, the card block 11 continues to move upward and will continue to squeeze the second spring 15. Subsequently, the storage box 3 is instantly pulled upward. At the moment when the card block 11 is separated from the squeeze of the slider 17, the second spring 15 releases its elastic potential energy and pushes the card block 11 to reset via the limiting circular plate 12. When the card block 11 is reset, it is already on the arc surface of the semicircular plate 10. The blocking of the card block 11 by the semicircular plate 10 ends, and the storage box 3 can be separated from the interior of the installation cavity 2, and then the storage box 3 can be taken out.

[0028] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a handle 18 is fixedly connected to the top of the storage box 3 , and a support plate 19 is fixedly connected to the top of the baffle 6 .

[0029] The arrangement of the handle 18 and the support plate 19 can facilitate the user to pull the storage box 3 upward, make it more convenient for the user to exert force with the hands, avoid the storage box 3 from slipping out of the hands, and improve the stability of the device when in use.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a pair of the installation mechanism and the disassembly mechanism are provided, and the pair of the installation mechanism and the disassembly mechanism are respectively provided at the bottom ends of a pair of storage boxes 3 .

[0031] A pair of installation mechanisms and a pair of removal mechanisms are provided, so that a pair of storage boxes 3 can be quickly installed and removed, thereby improving convenience during use.

[0032] Working principle: Place the desiccant bag inside the toner cartridge, and install the toner cartridge inside the printer by bolting. When the printer is working, the laser beam is adjusted and focused by the photoconductor and then shot to the surface of the toner cartridge. The selenium element in the toner cartridge converts the laser beam into a charge image. The photosensitive material covering the surface of the toner cartridge absorbs the laser beam to form charged particles with a ground state of charge. The charged particles will generate charges to form a charge image, forming a negative charge layer on the surface of the toner cartridge. The charged particles are attracted by the charged toner to form the pattern required for printing. The toner forms an image with charge on the toner cartridge, and the toner on the toner cartridge is transferred to the paper. Through high temperature and pressure, the toner is melted and transferred to the paper to complete the printing process. However, replacing the desiccant bag When removing and installing the desiccant bag, it is necessary to use special tools to remove and install the bolts, which brings a certain degree of inconvenience to the user. In order to solve the above problem, when using this embodiment, first slide the baffle 6 to place the desiccant bag inside the storage chamber 4, so that the desiccant bag can evaporate from the inside of the storage chamber 4 to the outside, and then slide the baffle 6 in the opposite direction again to close the top of the storage chamber 4, and then move the storage box 3 downward along the installation chamber 2. As the storage box 3 moves downward, the installation mechanism operates. When the storage box 3 is completely moved to the inside of the installation chamber 2, release the storage box 3. The reset path of the storage box 3 is blocked by the installation mechanism and cannot be separated from the inside of the installation chamber 2. The function of quickly installing the storage box 3 can be completed. When the desiccant bag needs to be replaced, continue to put the storage box 3 in the storage chamber 2. 3 moves downward. After the storage box 3 moves downward to a certain distance, the disassembly mechanism is operated, and the storage box 3 is moved upward at this time. The storage box 3 drives the disassembly mechanism upward synchronously. The disassembly mechanism conflicts with the installation mechanism at this time. The upward movement route of the storage box 3 is affected by the disassembly mechanism, and its blocking state ends. The storage box 3 can be separated from the interior of the installation cavity 2, and then the baffle plate 6 is slid to replace the desiccant bag inside its storage cavity 4. Through the above-mentioned structural design, the desiccant bag inside the storage cavity 4 can be quickly replaced without frequent disassembly and assembly of the bolts. The storage box 3 is moved downward along the inner wall of the installation cavity 2. When the storage box 3 moves downward, it drives the block 11 to move downward. When the block 11 moves downward, the inclined surface of the block 11 will first contact the arc surface of the semicircular plate 10. When the block 11 continues to move downward, it will be blocked by the semicircular plate 10. The block 11 is forced to drive the limiting circular plate 12 to move along the limiting rod 13. During the movement of the limiting circular plate 12, the second spring 15 will be squeezed, causing the second spring 15 to deform and generate elastic potential energy. When the block 11 passes over the semicircular plate 10, the squeezing of the block 11 by the semicircular plate 10 ends, and the force on the second spring 15 ends, and the elastic potential energy is released instantly, and the block 11 is driven to reset through the limiting circular plate 12. At this time, the downward movement distance of the storage box 3 just squeezes the support plate 8. The support plate 8 is forced to squeeze the first spring 7, causing the first spring 7 to deform and generate elastic potential energy. Then the movement of the storage box 3 ends, and the first spring 7 releases the elastic potential energy, and pushes the storage box 3 to reset through the support plate 8.When the storage box 3 is removed, the card block 11 is just engaged with the bottom end of the semicircular plate 10. On the way of the storage box 3 being reset, the card block 11 is blocked by the semicircular plate 10 and cannot be reset, thereby realizing the function of quickly installing the storage box 3. When the storage box 3 is removed, it is only necessary to continue to move the storage box 3 downward. At this time, the storage box 3 drives the card block 11 to press the slider 17 downward. The card block 11 is forced to move in the direction of the second spring 15 and drives the second spring 15 to deform under the force through the limiting circular plate 12. When the card block 11 passes the center part of the slider 17, the card block 11 contacts the arc surface of the lower half of the slider 17. At this time, the card block 11 is pulled upward by the storage box 3. When the card block 11 moves upward, since the card block 11 contacts the arc surface of the lower half of the slider 17, the card block 11 will drive the slider 17 to move upward synchronously. When the block 11 is in contact with the slider 17, the slider 17 cannot continue to move upward, but the card block 11 continues to move upward, which will continue to squeeze the second spring 15, and then instantly pull the storage box 3 upward. At the moment when the card block 11 is separated from the squeeze of the slider 17, the second spring 15 releases its elastic potential energy and pushes the card block 11 to reset through the limiting circular plate 12. When the card block 11 is reset, it is already on the arc surface of the semicircular plate 10, and the semicircular plate 10 stops blocking the card block 11, and the storage box 3 can be separated from the inside of the installation cavity 2, and then the storage box 3 can be taken out. The setting of the handle 18 and the support plate 19 can facilitate the user to pull the storage box 3 upward, which is more convenient for the hand to exert force, avoid the situation of pulling the storage box 3 out of the hand, and improve the stability of the device when in use. A pair of installation mechanisms and disassembly mechanisms are provided, and a pair of storage boxes 3 can be quickly installed and disassembled, which improves the convenience when in use.
