A linkage groove 320 is provided on the end surface of the main drive gear 32 facing the side where the cutting mechanism 4 is located. The eccentric disk 33 is arranged on the outer side of the lower housing 12 and rotatably assembled with the lower housing 12. The movable block 34 is arranged on the eccentric disk 33 so as to be liftable. The movable block 34 is used to insert or withdraw from the linkage groove 320 so as to make the eccentric disk 33 and the main drive gear 32 interlock or stop interlocking.

[0039] In one embodiment, the eccentric disk 33 is coaxially arranged with the main drive gear 32, which can effectively improve the tightness and stability of the combination of the main drive gear 32 and the eccentric disk 33 on the one hand, and on the other hand, can also make the torque transmission process smooth and reliable, and have high transmission efficiency and high transmission accuracy.

[0051] In one embodiment, a trigger column 3521 is protrudingly provided on one side of the sliding seat 352 close to the upper housing 11. A travel switch 5 is fixedly mounted on the inner side wall of the lower housing 12. The trigger column 3521 is used to abut against the travel switch 5 to trigger the travel switch 5.

[0052] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2 and Figures 6 to 9 In one embodiment, the cutting mechanism 4 includes: a cutting assembly 41 and an idle clamping assembly 42. The cutting assembly 41 is connected to the main driving gear 32. The idle clamping assembly 42 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 353. When the main driving gear 32 drives the eccentric disk 33 to move, the sliding assembly 35 moves in the sliding groove 125 under the drive of the eccentric column 332, thereby driving the idle clamping assembly 42 connected to the connecting plate 353 to move toward the side of the cutting assembly 41, thereby clamping the can body.

[0053] In one embodiment, the cutting assembly 41 includes: a transmission shaft 411 and a cutting wheel 412. The transmission shaft 411 passes through the sliding assembly 35, the eccentric wheel 33 and the main driving gear 32, and is fixedly assembled with the main driving gear 32, so that the transmission shaft 411 rotates synchronously with the main driving gear 32. A portion of the transmission shaft 411 passes through the lower shell 12, and the cutting wheel 412 is arranged on the outside of the shell 1 and is fixedly connected to the portion of the transmission shaft 411 passing through the lower shell 12. The cutting wheel 412 can rotate synchronously with the transmission shaft 411, thereby performing a cutting operation on the tank body.

[0054] In one embodiment, the idle clamping assembly 42 includes: a connecting shaft 421, a fastener 422 and an idle wheel 423. A connecting plate 353 is provided at one end of the connecting shaft 421 to cooperate with the fastener 422, so that the connecting shaft 421 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 353 and can move synchronously with the connecting plate 353. The idle wheel 423 is located on the outer side of the housing 1 and is sleeved on the connecting shaft 421. The idle wheel 423 can move toward the side of the cutting wheel 412 and cooperate with the cutting wheel 412 to clamp the tank body. When the cutting wheel 412 performs a cutting operation, the idle wheel 423 presses against the outer wall of the tank body to cooperate with the cutting wheel 412 to cut the tank body. In this embodiment, the fastener 422 is a screw. In other embodiments, the fastener 422 can also be a bolt, a rivet, etc., as long as the connecting shaft 421 and the connecting plate 353 can be fixedly assembled.

[0055] In one embodiment, the idle clamping assembly 42 may not be provided with the fastener 422 , and in this case, the connecting shaft 421 is directly integrally formed with the connecting plate 353 or fixed by welding.

[0056] In one embodiment, a buffer ring 4231 is provided on the outer side wall of the idle wheel 423 , and the buffer ring 4231 is used to press against the tank body when the cutting wheel 412 performs a cutting operation.

[0057] It should be noted that when the cutting operation is performed, the buffer ring 4231 is deformed under pressure, which can reduce the height of the can opener body tilting backward during cutting, so that the extrusion between the cutting wheel 412 and the can body is in a slight state, thereby reducing the load of the cutting wheel 412 during the cutting process; on the other hand, it can increase the force area between the idle wheel 423 and the can body, reduce the indentation caused by the cutting wheel 412 on the can body during the cutting process, thereby further reducing the damage to the can body; in addition, the contact area between the idle wheel 423 and the can body is increased, which can increase the friction between the idle wheel 423 and the can body, thereby preventing the idle wheel 423 from slipping. Avoid cutting burrs and iron wires, and also play a buffering effect in places where the can body is unevenly packaged to avoid damage to the cutting knife.

[0058] When the idle wheel is not provided with a buffer ring 4231, the spacing between the cutting wheel 412 and the idle wheel 423 is fixed. When the can body is uneven, either the cutting wheel 412, the idle wheel 423 and the can body will slip, or the cutting wheel 412 and the idle wheel 423 will be squeezed. In the long run, the internal mechanical structure of the can opener will be damaged and the service life will be reduced. The buffer ring 4231 can solve the above problem.

[0059] In one embodiment, an annular groove 4232 is provided on the outer wall of the idler wheel 423, a portion of the buffer ring 4231 is installed in the annular groove 4232, and another portion protrudes from the outer wall of the idler wheel 423. Such a configuration can prevent the buffer ring 4231 from falling off the idler wheel 423.

[0060] In one embodiment, the material of the buffer 4231 is a material with elastic deformation ability, including but not limited to rubber, silicone, elastic plastic, etc.

[0061] It should be noted that, when in the initial position of forward rotation, the movable block 34 rises under the action of the spring thrust, and the movable block 34 on the eccentric disk 33 is inserted into the linkage groove 320 of the main driving gear 32. At this time, the first vertical surface 342 of the movable block 34 is tightly attached to the linkage groove 320 and cannot slide. Therefore, when the main driving gear 32 rotates forward, the eccentric disk 33 is driven to rotate forward; when the eccentric disk 33 rotates to contact the fastener 123 on the mounting portion 121, the fastener 123 will pull and press the movable block 34 to move downward. At this time, the first vertical surface 342 of the movable block 34 is still tightly attached to the linkage groove 311, but the fastener 123 is about to pull and press the movable block 34 downward. The contact part gradually decreases, and the eccentric disk 33 is still driven to rotate forward; when the main driving gear 32 continues to rotate forward, the movable block 34 and the eccentric disk 33 rotate forward to the root of the fastener 123, and the fastener 123 has pressed the movable block 34 to move downward. At this time, only the inclined surface 341 of the movable block 34 is in contact with the groove of the main driving gear 32, and the linkage groove 320 on the main driving gear 32 slides over the inclined surface 341 of the movable block 34, and the movable block 34 and the eccentric disk 33 stop rotating forward with the main driving gear 32; in this way, the main driving gear 32 continues to rotate forward while the eccentric disk 33 is fixed in one position, thereby realizing the can opening function. When the can opening is completed and the knife needs to be retracted, the main driving gear 32 reverses. At this time, the second vertical surface 343 of the movable block 34 is tightly attached to the linkage groove 320, and the two are in vertical contact and cannot slide. Therefore, the movable block 34 and the eccentric disk 33 reverse together with the main driving gear 32; when the movable block 34 is separated from the fastener 123, the movable block 34 continues to move upward under the action of the spring force, the contact area is larger, and the two are more unable to slide, and the movable block 34 and the eccentric disk 34 continue to reverse with the main driving gear 32; until the travel switch 5 is encountered and the power is cut off and stopped, returning to the initial position, completing a cycle.

[0062] The above is only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Other modifications or equivalent substitutions made to the technical solution of the utility model by ordinary technicians in this field should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
