[0028] Refer to Figures 1-5As shown in the figure, the utility model provides a technical solution: a toner cartridge with a chip replacement structure, which includes a toner cartridge body 1. A clamping groove is provided on the surface of the toner cartridge body 1. A fixing rod 2 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the clamping groove of the toner cartridge body 1. A clamping bracket 3 is rotatably connected to the arc surface of the fixing rod 2. A connecting plate 4 is fixedly connected to the surface of the clamping bracket 3. A setting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting plate 4. An installation groove 15 is provided on the surface of the setting plate 5. A spring 6 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the installation groove 15. A limiting block 7 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the installation groove 15. An installation frame 8 is fixedly connected to the surface of the toner cartridge body 1. It achieves the effect of facilitating the replacement of the chip used by the toner cartridge body 1. To avoid the situation that when the toner cartridge body 1 is used for a long time, since the chip of the toner cartridge body 1 has functions such as displaying the remaining toner amount and page count information, but the service life of the chip of the toner cartridge body 1 is limited, so after long-term use, it is necessary to replace the toner cartridge body 1 and the chip together, resulting in waste of the resources of the toner cartridge body 1 and an increase in printing costs, improving the practicability of the device. A screw rod 9 is inserted into the installation frame 8 in a threaded manner. One end of the screw rod 9 is rotatably connected to a moving plate 10. Rotating the screw rod 9 rotates in the installation frame 8, and the screw rod 9 drives the moving plate 10 to move. The moving plate 10 drives the limiting block 7 to slide on the inner surface of the installation frame 8 until the limiting block 7 disengages from the inner surface of the installation frame 8, avoiding the situation that the staff has to keep pressing the limiting block 7 with their fingers and getting injured, improving the safety of the device. A limiting rod 11 is slidably inserted into the installation frame 8. One end of the limiting rod 11 is fixedly connected to the moving plate 10. The moving plate 10 drives the limiting rod 11 to slide in the installation frame 8, avoiding the situation that the moving plate 10 rotates as the screw rod 9 rotates, improving the stability of the device. A torsion spring 13 is sleeved on the arc surface of the fixing rod 2. Both ends of the torsion spring 13 are fixedly connected to the clamping groove and the clamping bracket 3 respectively. The torsion of the torsion spring 13 drives the clamping bracket 3 to rotate and automatically open on the arc surface of the fixing rod 2, improving the convenience of the device. A protective pad 14 is fixedly connected to the surface of the clamping bracket 3. The material of the protective pad 14 is rubber. The rubber protective pad 14 has a certain elasticity, which can prevent the clamping bracket 3 from damaging the surface of the chip. One end of the screw rod 9 away from the moving plate 10 is fixedly connected to a handle 12. There are several convex points on the arc surface of the handle 12. Rotating the handle 12 drives the screw rod 9 to rotate in the installation frame 8, and the screw rod 9 drives the moving plate 10 to move, so as to facilitate the staff to stably rotate the screw rod 9 to precisely control the position of the moving plate 10. The size of the limiting block 7 is adapted to the size of the installation groove 15. The limiting block 7 slides on the inner surface of the installation groove 15, preventing the limiting block 7 from deviating in position during the process of sliding on the inner surface of the installation groove 15.
[0029] Working principle: When the staff needs to replace the chip, rotating the handle 12 drives the screw rod 9 to rotate in the mounting bracket 8. The screw rod 9 drives the moving plate 10 to move, and the moving plate 10 drives the limiting rod 11 to slide in the mounting bracket 8, avoiding the situation where the moving plate 10 rotates along with the rotation of the screw rod 9. The moving plate 10 drives the limiting block 7 to slide on the inner surface of the mounting groove 15 until the limiting block 7 disengages from the inner surface of the mounting bracket 8. At this time, the torsion of the torsion spring 13 drives the clamping bracket 3 to rotate on the arc surface of the fixed rod 2, and the clamping bracket 3 drives the protective belt to rotate, achieving the effect of facilitating the replacement of the chip used by the drum body 1. To avoid the situation that during the long-term use of the drum body 1, since the chip of the drum body 1 has functions such as displaying the remaining toner amount and page count information, but the service life of the chip of the drum body 1 is limited, so after long-term use, it is necessary to replace the drum body 1 and the chip together, resulting in waste of the resources of the drum body 1 and an increase in printing costs, and improving the practicability of the device.
