Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of printers, and specifically, to an internal cutting knife assembly and a printer containing the same. Background Art

[0002] A thermal printer is a small and portable printing device. The printing roll paper is built into the printer, and the printed paper is generally cut and separated by a metal paper cutter provided on the printer. However, this metal paper cutter generally has a sharp serrated structure and generally protrudes from the outer surface of the printer for effective cutting, with its sharp side facing outward, so there is a risk of hurting people. For example, a thermal printer with integrated interfaces disclosed in the patent document with the application number CN202020729292.3, the paper cutting device adopted in this patent document is arranged on the front side wall outside the housing, and there will be the above risks. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] In view of the above deficiencies of the prior art, this application provides an internal cutting knife assembly in which the blade will not be exposed, so it will not cause harm to the human body.

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: A cutting knife assembly includes a paper pressing member and a push block structure that are movably arranged on the machine body. A cutting knife is rotatably connected to the paper pressing member. An elastic connecting member is connected between the cutting knife and the push block structure. The push block structure is used to push the paper pressing member to move through the elastic connecting member to press the paper, and is used to drive the cutting knife to rotate through the elastic connecting member to cut the paper.

[0005] With the above structure, this application places the cutting knife assembly inside the housing of the printer. The cutting knife rotates under the driving force of the elastic connecting member, so as to perform rotary cutting on the paper coming out of the paper outlet, which can cut the paper more thoroughly. Moreover, the cutting knife is built-in and not exposed, so it avoids possible harm to the human body. In addition, the cutting knife of this application is driven to rotate and cut through the elastic connecting member, so the cutting force is large and the cutting is more neat. In addition, while driving the cutting knife to rotate, the elastic connecting member can also drive the paper pressing member to press the paper in the paper outlet at the same time, so that the cutting knife can cut the paper more stably.

[0006] Furthermore, the elastic connecting member includes an elastic push rod and an elastic reset member. The elastic reset member is sleeved on the elastic push rod, and the elastic reset member is used to drive the push block structure away from the cutting knife so that the elastic push rod drives the cutting knife to reset. With the above structure, during the paper cutting process, when the push block structure is pushed, the elastic reset member is compressed. After removing the force on the push block structure, the cutting knife can be driven to reset by the elastic reset member. When cutting next time, it is only necessary to push the push block structure again, which is simple and convenient to operate.

[0007] Furthermore, the paper pressing member includes a longitudinally extending wall. The cutting knife is rotatably installed on the longitudinally extending wall through a rotating shaft. An arc-shaped guide groove coaxial with the rotating shaft is penetrated on the longitudinally extending wall, and the length direction of the arc-shaped guide groove is consistent with the movement direction of the push block structure. The end of the elastic push rod is inserted into the arc-shaped guide groove and can slide along the extension track of the arc-shaped guide groove. With this structure, during the process of the push block structure pushing the elastic push rod to operate, the elastic push rod can slide along the arc-shaped guide groove, and the cutting knife and the paper pressing member are rotatably connected. At this time, the cutting knife can rotate along the rotation point under the combined action of the elastic push rod and the arc-shaped guide groove to realize the rotary cutting action of the paper, so as to effectively cut the paper.

[0008] Furthermore, a soft rubber block is connected to the side wall of the paper pressing member facing the paper. With this structure, soft contact can be realized between the paper pressing member and the paper. On the one hand, it can avoid damaging the paper. On the other hand, this soft contact can make the friction between the paper and the soft rubber block large, avoiding the displacement of the paper during the cutting process and affecting the cutting effect.

[0009] Furthermore, an outlet opening is provided on the side wall of the paper pressing member facing the paper. The cutting knife is used to extend out from the outlet opening. An installation groove is provided at the bottom of the paper pressing member, and the lower side of the cutting knife is used to be accommodated in the installation groove. With this structure, before cutting the paper, the blade of the cutting knife can be encapsulated in the outlet opening to improve safety. More importantly, it can maintain the effective cooperation between the cutting knife and the paper pressing member, avoiding the cutting knife breaking away from the limitation of the outlet opening and affecting the reset. The setting of the installation groove can further stabilize the positioning of the cutting knife.

[0010] Furthermore, the push block structure includes a push block connecting member and a push block connected to the push block connecting member. The push block is used to push the push block connecting member close to the cutting knife. Through the above structure, the push block can be used to drive the push block connecting member, thereby indirectly pushing the cutting knife to complete the paper cutting action.

[0011] Further, a sleeve post and a positioning block are arranged on the inner side wall of the push block connecting piece. A through hole is arranged on the positioning block. The elastic push rod passes through the through hole and one end of the elastic push rod is sleeved on the sleeve post. With this structure, the connection between the elastic push rod and the push block connecting piece can be realized. Moreover, by passing through the through hole on the positioning block, the position of the elastic push rod is more stable, avoiding large deformation during operation and causing difficulty in resetting.

[0012] Further, the present application also provides a printer, which includes the cutter assembly described above in the present application. The structure of the printer further includes a housing. The paper pressing piece, the cutter, the elastic push rod and the push block connecting piece of the cutter assembly are all arranged in the housing. One end of the push block of the cutter assembly is externally arranged on the outer wall of the housing and can slide relative to the housing. The printer adopting the above cutter assembly can realize the rotary driving of the cutter to cut the paper, making the paper cutting more accurate and thorough. Moreover, the cutter of the printer is built-in, reducing the risk of harm to the operator. And the built-in cutter avoids harm to the operator. The operation of the cutter can be realized through one end of the externally arranged push block, which is more convenient.

[0013] Further, a lapping groove is arranged on the inner wall of the housing of the printer. The elastic push rod is accommodated in the lapping groove. One end of the elastic resetting piece of the cutter assembly abuts against the positioning block on the push block connecting piece, and the other end abuts against the end surface where the lapping groove is located. With this structure, the position of the elastic push rod can be further stabilized, making its resetting and driving the cutter to rotate more accurate. And the elastic resetting piece can be compressed by the positioning block towards the lapping groove direction during the process of driving the cutter. When the pushing force on the push block is removed, the elastic resetting piece stretches between the lapping groove and the positioning block to drive the push block connecting piece to return to the initial position.

[0027] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the embodiments and the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only preferred embodiments, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention;

[0028] In addition, it should be noted that: when a component is referred to as "fixed to" another component, it can be directly on the other component or there may also be another intermediate component through which it is fixed. When a component is considered to be "connected" to another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there may be another intermediate component at the same time. When a component is considered to be "disposed on" another component, it can be directly disposed on the other component or there may be another intermediate component at the same time. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only. Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the technical field to which the present invention belongs. The terms used in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0029] As shown in the Figures 1-8 accompanying drawings, a built-in cutter assembly of the present application is provided, and its structure includes a paper pressing member 1 and a push block structure that are movably disposed on the machine body. A cutter 2 is rotatably connected to the paper pressing member 1. An elastic connecting member is connected between the cutter 2 and the push block structure. The push block structure is used to push the paper pressing member 1 to move through the elastic connecting member to press the paper, so that the paper pressing member presses the paper to facilitate the cutter to cut, and is used to drive the cutter 2 to rotate through the elastic connecting member to cut the paper; the above-mentioned machine body can be the machine body of a printer or the housing of a printer.

[0030] With the above structure, the cutter assembly of the present application is built into the interior of the housing of the printer. The cutter rotates under the driving force of the elastic connecting member, so as to perform rotary cutting on the paper coming out of the paper outlet, and can achieve more thorough cutting of the paper. Moreover, the cutter is built-in and not exposed, thus avoiding possible harm to the human body. In addition, the cutter of the present application is driven to rotate and cut through the elastic connecting member, so the cutting force is large and the cutting is more neat. In addition, while driving the cutter to rotate, since the cutter is also connected to the paper pressing member, the elastic connecting member can also drive the paper pressing member to press the paper in the paper outlet at the same time, so that the cutter can cut the paper more stably.

[0031] As shown in the Figures 1-8As shown in the figure, the elastic connecting member described in the present application includes an elastic push rod 3 and an elastic reset member 4. The elastic reset member 4 is sleeved on the elastic push rod 3, and the elastic reset member 4 is used to drive the push block structure away from the cutter 2 so that the elastic push rod 3 drives the cutter 3 to reset. Specifically, one end of the elastic push rod is connected to the cutter, and the other end is connected to the push block structure. Under the push of the push block structure, the elastic push rod pushes the cutter to cut the paper. When a force is applied to the push block structure to drive the cutter to cut the paper, the elastic reset member is compressed. After the force applied to the push block structure is removed, the elastic reset member extends and resets to drive the cutter to retract and reset. The above reset means that the cutter returns to the initial position where it does not cut the paper.

[0032] As shown in the attached Figure 2 、 5 -8, the paper pressing member 1 described in the present application includes a longitudinally extending wall 101, that is, it extends along the extension direction of the cutter surface, or in other words, along the length extension direction of the elastic push rod. The cutter 2 is rotatably installed on the longitudinally extending wall 101 through a rotating shaft 102. The above rotating shaft is vertically arranged on the longitudinally extending wall. The end face of the rotating shaft can be fastened by screws to firmly connect the cutter and the rotating shaft to prevent it from detaching from the rotating shaft. An arc-shaped guide groove 103 coaxial with the rotating shaft 102 is penetrated on the longitudinally extending wall 101, that is, the arc-shaped guide groove is concentric with the rotating shaft, and the length direction of the arc-shaped guide groove 103 is consistent with the movement direction of the push block structure. The end of the elastic push rod 3 is inserted into the arc-shaped guide groove 103 and can slide along the extension track of the arc-shaped guide groove 103. Specifically, the arc-shaped guide groove is located above the rotating shaft. The arc-shaped guide groove is a circular arc structure concentric with the rotating shaft. The angle by which the elastic push rod drives the cutter to rotate around the rotating shaft is the angle of the extension track of the arc-shaped guide groove. One end of the elastic push rod close to the cutter is bent at 90 degrees, then inserted into a jack arranged on the cutter, and then passes through the jack and enters the arc-shaped guide groove, so as to slide in the arc-shaped guide groove. With this structure, during the process of the push block structure pushing the elastic push rod to move, the elastic push rod can slide along the arc-shaped guide groove, and the cutter is rotatably connected to the paper pressing member. At this time, it can rotate along the rotating shaft under the joint action of the elastic push rod and the arc-shaped guide groove, realizing the rotary cutting action of the paper, so as to effectively cut the paper.

[0033] As shown in the attached Figure 5 、 10As shown in the figure, a soft rubber block 5 is connected to the side wall of the paper pressing member 1 of the present application facing the paper. Specifically, a paper outlet is provided on the printer, and the paper to be printed is led out of the printer through this outlet to the outside of the printer. During the cutting process of the cutter, the soft rubber block presses the paper extended on both sides of the cutter thickness. The soft rubber block 5 and the paper pressing member 1 are adhesively fixed to each other, or a groove is opened on the corresponding outer wall of the paper pressing member, and a part of the soft rubber block is inserted into the groove to achieve connection. With this structure, soft contact can be achieved between the paper pressing member and the paper. On the one hand, it can avoid damaging the paper, and on the other hand, this soft contact can increase the friction between the paper and the soft rubber block, preventing the paper from shifting during the cutting process and affecting the cutting effect.

[0034] As shown in the attached Figures 1-8 figure, on the side wall of the paper pressing member 1 of the present application facing the paper, a cutting opening 104 is provided. The cutter 2 is used to extend out from the cutting opening 104 to contact the paper for cutting. An installation groove 105 is provided at the bottom of the paper pressing member 1, and the lower side of the cutter 2 is used to be accommodated in the installation groove 105. Specifically, the cutting opening is used for accommodating the cutter blade. When not cutting, the blade is hidden in the cutting opening, and when cutting, under the action of the driving force, the cutter rotates and its blade rotates out of the cutting opening to cut the paper. The installation groove is used for the bottom surface of the cutter to slide and assemble inside, improving the stability of the cutter during operation. The bottom surface of the cutter can be an arc-shaped surface to facilitate smoother rotation and reset, avoiding jamming. With this structure, before cutting the paper, the blade of the cutter can be encapsulated in the cutting opening, improving safety. More importantly, it can maintain the effective cooperation between the cutter and the paper pressing member, preventing the cutter from being restricted by the cutting opening and affecting the reset. The setting of the installation groove can further stabilize the positioning of the cutter.

[0035] As shown in the attached Figures 1-2 , Figures 7 - 8 show that the push block structure of the present application includes a push block connecting member 6 and a push block 7 connected to the push block connecting member 6.

Specifically, a clamping block 601 is provided on the push block connecting member 6, and a clamping buckle 701 is provided on the push block 7. The clamping buckle 701 is buckled and connected to the clamping block 601 to achieve the connection between the push block and the push block connecting member. More specifically, a clamping groove is opened at the center position of the body of the push block connecting member. A support plate that protrudes from the surface of the connecting member body horizontally in the middle of the clamping groove is the clamping block 601. And symmetrically arranged clamping buckles are provided on the push block, which extend towards the inside of the housing. The clamping buckles pass through the clamping groove and are abutted and buckled with the outer wall of the connecting member body. With this structure, the connection between the push block and the push block connecting member can be achieved, so as to drive the push block connecting member and the elastic push rod connected thereto by pushing the push block.

[0036] As shown in the attached Figure 5 、7 -8, a sleeve column 602 and a positioning block 603 are provided on the inner side wall of the push block connector 6 described in the present application, i.e., on the side close to the inside of the shell, a through hole 604 is provided on the positioning block 603, and the through hole 604 extends along the length direction of the elastic push rod 3, the elastic push rod 3 passes through the through hole 604 and one end of the elastic push rod 3 is sleeved on the sleeve column 602; specifically, the positioning block is located at the end of the push block connector close to the cutter, and the sleeve column is located at the end away from the cutter; a hook ring is provided at the corresponding end of the elastic push rod to realize a sleeve connection with the sleeve column, and a screw hole can be provided on the sleeve column, and a stable connection is achieved between the hook ring and the sleeve column by tightening the screws; adopting this structure, the connection between the elastic push rod and the push block connector can be realized, and the position of the elastic push rod is made more stable by passing through the through hole on the positioning block, thereby avoiding large deformation during operation and causing difficulty in resetting.
