Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of receipt printers, and particularly refers to a luminous and waterproof receipt outlet. Background Art

[0002] A receipt printer is one of the common devices in a business environment and is widely used in the retail industry, banking industry, hotel industry, and other service industries that require providing transaction vouchers. It is mainly responsible for printing information such as transaction receipts, invoices, order confirmations, etc., so that customers can save records or use them as supporting documents.

[0003] In the existing receipt printer, a paper outlet guide is installed at the paper outlet. In the traditional design, the outside of the paper outlet guide is flush with the machine surface; at the same time, an indicator light is set beside the paper outlet to remind the user that the receipt has been printed. Generally, a light bar light guide plate is designed above or below the guide, and the light bar is installed on the back of the light guide plate.

[0004] The traditional design method has the following two deficiencies:

[0005] 1. The surface of the guide is flush with the frame surface. If water is splashed on the guide from the outside, the water will flow into the chassis interior along the paper outlet channel on the guide, which may cause the risk of damaging the electronic module.

[0006] 2. The integration degree of the traditional external indicator light bar and the paper outlet is not high enough, and the indication is not strong enough.

[0007] In view of the above problems, it is necessary to provide a luminous and waterproof receipt outlet to achieve the above functions. Summary of the Utility Model

[0008] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a luminous and waterproof receipt outlet to overcome the above defects in the prior art.

[0009] The technical solution for achieving the purpose of the utility model is: a luminous and waterproof receipt outlet, including a receipt outlet frame detachably fixed to the terminal housing. The receipt outlet frame is provided with a receipt paper outlet communicating with the receipt printer. The receipt outlet frame is fixed with an eaves-shaped waterproof cover. The eaves-shaped waterproof cover extends outward from the top of the receipt paper outlet and has a downward inclination angle. An indicator light bar is detachably and fixedly installed inside the receipt outlet frame.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the indicator light bar is connected to the inside of the receipt outlet frame by a buckle.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the eaves-shaped waterproof cover adopts a frosted surface.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, there are at least 2 uniformly distributed support plates fixedly arranged below the eaves-shaped waterproof cover, and the lower part of the support plate is provided with a downward inclination angle.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, a guide plate inclined upward from the inside to the outside is provided at the bottom of the receipt paper outlet.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment, the receipt outlet frame and the waterproof cover are integrally formed.

[0015] Adopting the above technical solutions, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] (1) The receipt outlet frame of the utility model is detachably installed on the terminal housing, which is convenient for maintenance. The eaves-shaped waterproof cover can effectively prevent water and dust, avoiding the risk that water flows into the chassis along the paper outlet channel on the guide member and causing damage to the electronic module, improving the service life of the receipt printer and the self-service terminal. The indicator light is installed inside the receipt outlet frame, and the hidden lighting design can more accurately indicate the position of the paper outlet, and there is no need to design the position of the indicator light on the terminal housing, saving the manufacturing cost.

[0017] (2) The utility model fixes the light bar through a buckle structure, making the installation and maintenance of the light bar more convenient.

[0018] (3) The waterproof cover of the utility model adopts a frosted surface, which can form diffuse reflection of the indicator light, making the surface look softer, without generating a mirror effect, improving the aesthetic feeling of the light, and the frosted waterproof cover also improves the sensory effect of the product.

[0019] (4) First, the support plate of the utility model can increase the strength of the waterproof cover. Second, the downward inclination angle can play a guiding role in unloading the receipt paper, facilitating the user to take out the receipt paper.

[0020] (5) Through the design of the angles of the guide plate and the support plate, the utility model gradually shrinks from the receipt printer to the paper outlet, forming a guiding effect and avoiding paper jams at the paper outlet.

[0021] (6) The receipt outlet frame and the waterproof cover of the utility model are integrally formed, making the installation more convenient, improving the sealing performance between the waterproof cover and the frame, and enhancing the waterproof and dustproof effect.

[0033] (Embodiment)

[0034] See Figures 1 to 3 , a light-emitting waterproof receipt outlet, which includes a receipt outlet frame 2, an eave-shaped waterproof cover 3, and an indicator light bar 4 installed on the terminal housing 1. The receipt outlet frame 2 is fixed to the terminal housing 1 by screws. The receipt outlet frame 2 is provided with a receipt paper outlet 2-1 communicating with the receipt printer. The receipt outlet frame 2 and the eave-shaped waterproof cover 3 are integrally formed. The eave-shaped waterproof cover 3 extends outward from the top of the receipt paper outlet 2-1 and has a downward inclination angle. A row of uniformly distributed support plates 3-1 is fixedly arranged below the eave-shaped waterproof cover 3. The support plates 3-1 are provided with a downward inclination angle below. A guide plate 2-2 inclined upward from the inside to the outside is arranged at the bottom of the receipt paper outlet 2-1. Through the design of the angles of the guide plate 2-2 and the support plate 3-2, it gradually contracts from the receipt printer to the paper outlet, forming a guiding effect to avoid paper jams at the paper outlet.

[0035] Furthermore, an indicator light bar 4 is fixedly installed inside the receipt outlet frame 2. The indicator light bar 4 is connected to the inside of the receipt outlet frame 2 by a buckle. The eave-shaped waterproof cover 3 adopts a frosted surface. Fixing the light bar through the buckle structure makes the installation and maintenance of the light bar more convenient. Adopting a frosted surface can form a diffuse reflection of the indicator light, making the surface look softer, without producing a mirror effect, enhancing the beauty of the light, and the frosted waterproof cover also improves the sensory effect of the product.

[0036] In this embodiment, the receipt outlet frame is detachably installed on the terminal housing, which facilitates maintenance. The eaves-style waterproof cover is provided to effectively prevent water and dust, avoiding the risk that water flows into the chassis along the paper outlet channel on the guide, which may damage the electronic module, and improving the service life of the receipt printer and the self-service terminal. The indicator light is installed inside the receipt outlet frame, adopting a hidden lighting design, which can more accurately indicate the position of the printing paper outlet, and there is no need to design the position of the indicator light on the terminal housing, saving manufacturing costs. The integrated design makes the installation more convenient and improves the sealing performance between the waterproof cover and the frame, enhancing the waterproof and dustproof effect.

[0037] The specific embodiments described above further elaborate on the purpose, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of the present invention. It should be understood that the above are only specific embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
