[0028] In order to better explain the present invention and facilitate understanding, the present invention is described in detail below through specific implementation modes in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0029] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present invention (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0030] In addition, in the present invention, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0031] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connection", "fixation", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0032] The utility model provides a cutter assembly, which includes: a guide seat 1, a cutter seat plate 2, a cutter slide block 3, a rolling cutter 4 and an elastic element 5. The guide seat 1 and the cutter seat plate 2 are arranged in parallel, and there is a gap 6 between the guide seat 1 and the cutter seat plate 2 in a first direction, and paper can pass through the gap 6. The cutter assembly is located in a printer, and when the printer is printing, the paper will pass through the gap 6, and when the size of the paper passing through the gap 6 is the expected size, the rolling cutter 4 will cut the paper.

[0033] The cutter slider 3 is slidably arranged on the guide seat 1, and the cutter slider 3 can reciprocate along the first direction on the guide seat 1; the roller cutter 4 is rotatably arranged in the cutter slider 3, and the elastic element 5 is arranged in the cutter slider 3, one end of the elastic element 5 abuts against the cutter slider 3, and the other end of the elastic element 5 abuts against one side of the roller cutter 4, and the other side of the roller cutter 4 abuts against the cutter seat plate 2, and the roller cutter 4 can cut the paper passing through the gap 6. In daily use, the elastic element 5 is in a compressed state. Since the roller cutter 4 abuts against the elastic element 5, there is a preload force between the roller cutter 4 and the cutter seat plate 2, and the preload force at this time is equal to the elastic force of the elastic element 5. In the scheme of the utility model, when the paper passes through the gap 6, the cutter slider 3 drives the roller cutter 4 to reciprocate to achieve the cutting of the paper, and the roller cutter 4 can keep in contact with the cutter seat plate 2 under the action of the elastic element 5, and the roller cutter 4 will not be loosened between the cutter seat plate 2, thereby ensuring the cutting quality of the paper.

[0034] Further, the cutter assembly also includes a pair of connecting plates 7. The guide seat 1 and the knife seat plate 2 are both located between the two connecting plates 7, and the connecting plate 7 is used to connect the guide seat 1 and the knife seat plate 2, and the connecting plate 7 is installed at the ends of the guide seat 1 and the knife seat plate 2.

[0035] The cutter assembly also includes a power element 8. The power element 8 includes a driving motor 81, a belt 82 and a moving wheel 83. The connecting plate 7 is provided with moving wheels 83 for rotation. The belt 82 is sleeved on two moving wheels 83. The cutter slider 3 is connected to the belt 82. The driving motor 81 is installed on a connecting plate 7. The output shaft of the driving motor 81 is connected to the corresponding moving wheel 83 on the connecting plate 7. The driving motor 81 can drive the corresponding moving wheel 83 to rotate, so that the belt 82 drives the cutter slider 3 to slide.

[0036] In the above scheme, the drive motor 81 and the belt 82 are used to drive the cutter slider 3 to move, so that the roller cutter 4 can quickly cut the paper. In a more preferred embodiment, an encoder for detecting the motor speed can be set in the drive motor 81. By controlling the rotation of the drive motor 81 through the encoder, the moving distance of the rolling can be controlled, thereby realizing fast cutting of papers of different sizes. The high speed of the drive motor 81 can realize fast cutting, and the encoder can control the stop of the cutter head so as not to cause collision. In addition, photoelectric sensors for detecting the position of the cutter slider 3 can be set at both ends of the guide seat 1. The photoelectric sensors can limit the cutter slider 3, thereby ensuring the safe use of the roller cutter 4.

[0037] Furthermore, the knife seat plate 2 is provided with a long knife strip 21, which is provided along the gap 6, and the hob 4 abuts against the long knife strip 21. In this solution, the long knife strip 21 is provided on the knife seat plate 2, and the long knife strip 21 is located between the knife seat plate 2 and the hob 4, that is, the hob 4 does not directly contact the knife seat plate 2, but contacts the long knife strip 21. The long knife strip 21 can be made of wear-resistant material, thereby improving the service life of the knife seat plate 2.

[0038] In addition, the cutter slider 3 includes a sliding seat 31 and a fixed seat 32 that are butted against each other. A guide rail is arranged on the guide seat 1 along the first direction, and the sliding seat 31 is mounted on the guide rail, and the sliding seat 31 can slide along the guide rail. The roller 4 is arranged between the sliding seat 31 and the fixed seat 32, one end of the elastic element 5 abuts against the roller 4, and the other end of the elastic element 5 abuts against the fixed seat 32. A roller 33 is arranged on the sliding seat 31, and the roller 4 is rotatably arranged on the roller 33, and the elastic element 5 is sleeved on the roller 33. The elastic element 5 is a spring. The spring can press the roller 4 against the long knife strip 21, ensuring smooth cutting.

[0039] Finally, a plurality of buckles 11 are arranged in an array on the guide seat 1. The guide seat 1 is detachably installed in the printer through the buckles 11, and the buckles 11 can be quickly installed to realize the installation of the cutter assembly.
