Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a synchronous scanning and printing device, belonging to the technical field of printer equipment. Background Art
[0002] This solution relates to a synchronous scanning and printing device. The existing synchronous scanning and printing device can integrate the scanning module into the printing device and perform scanning synchronously after printing, thus improving the working efficiency of the device and reducing the device cost. For example, the comparative document CN116506556A discloses a portable printing and scanning device, including a scanning module, a printing module, a paper feeding drive, and a control board. However, its printing module and scanning module are arranged side by side along the paper feeding direction, and its design purpose is to make the device have both printing and scanning functions, that is to say, the printing function and the scanning function are independently distinguished. For example, if a paper document needs to be printed and scanned, it is necessary to first transfer the medium to the scanning module through the paper feeding drive for scanning, then the paper feeding module rotates in the reverse direction to return the medium, and then rotates in the reverse direction to send the medium into the printing module for printing. Its operation is discontinuous, so its efficiency is necessarily insufficient. Therefore, the above technical problems need to be solved urgently in the scanning and printing device. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] Aiming at the deficiencies of the above prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a synchronous scanning and printing device.
[0004] According to the embodiment of the utility model, the first solution is provided as follows: A synchronous scanning and printing device includes a printing module, a scanning module, and a cutting module arranged in sequence according to the transmission direction of the printing object.
[0005] Further, the printing module, the scanning module, and the cutting module are arranged on the machine shell and the machine cover. The machine cover is rotatably connected to the machine shell, and the cooperation states of the machine cover and the machine shell include: an open state and a closed state.
[0006] Further, in the closed state, the printing module, the scanning module, and the cutting module are arranged in sequence so that when the printing object is transmitted through the printing module, the scanning module, and the cutting module, it is basically in a plane.
[0007] Further, in the closed state, the printing module, the scanning module, and the cutting module are arranged in sequence so that when the printing object is transmitted through the printing module, the scanning module, and the cutting module, it is segmented in multiple planes.
[0008] Further, the scanning module includes a rubber roller arranged on the machine shell and a thermal head sheet arranged on the machine cover. In the closed state, when the printing object is transmitted through the printing module, the rubber roller and the thermal head sheet are located on both sides of the printing object.
[0009] Further, in the closed state, the machine cover is fixed to the machine body through a clamping mechanism to maintain the closed state. In the closed state, the clamping force of the clamping mechanism between the machine cover and the machine body tightly adheres the printing object to the rubber roller through the thermal head sheet of the printing module.
[0010] Further, the drive motor controls the rotation of the rubber roller and drives the printing object to be transported inside the machine body.
[0011] Further, the printing object is arranged on the machine body through a paper feed shaft. One end of the roll-shaped printing object arranged on the paper feed shaft extends out and sequentially passes through the printing module, the scanning module, and the cutting module. When the rubber roller rotates and drives the printing object to be transported inside the machine body along the transport direction, the paper feed shaft rotates synchronously and outputs the printing object.
[0012] Further, the scanning module is arranged on the machine cover. In front of the sensor of the scanning module, a narrow channel or a roller structure is provided to control the cooperation distance and / or cooperation angle between the printing object and the sensor.
[0013] Further, the cutting module includes a fixed knife and a moving knife. In the closed state, when the printing object is transported through the cutting module, the fixed knife and the moving knife are located on both sides of the printing object, and the moving knife cooperates with the fixed knife to complete the cutting of the printing object. The fixed knife is arranged on the machine cover, and the moving knife is arranged on the machine body.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the independent claim of the technical solution provided by this application: This application discloses a synchronous scanning and printing device. The printing module, the scanning module, and the cutting module are arranged sequentially according to the paper feeding direction of the printing paper, so that the printing paper can sequentially complete three functions of printing, scanning, and cutting in the same device. When the user uses this device, they can directly obtain the printed form after cutting. At the same time, the scanning module can further complete information storage or upload to the information cloud platform, making the integration of the device higher and greatly improving the working efficiency.

[0021] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of this application.
[0022] Embodiment 1
[0023] This embodiment relates to a synchronous scanning and printing device for printing paper documents such as bills. The overall structure of the existing portable printing device is simple and compact, and it can be carried around. One device integrates the printing function and the scanning function. That is, after printing information on a paper document, the printing information on the paper document can also be scanned and digitized by the scanning module 4, and the digital printing information on the paper document can be uploaded to the cloud for storage or invocation. However, the integrated settings of the printing module 3 and the scanning module 4 in the existing printing devices are different. For example, in the comparative document CN116506556A, a portable printing and scanning device is disclosed, including a scanning module, a printing module, a paper feeding drive, and a control board. However, its printing module and scanning module are arranged side by side along the paper feeding direction. Its design purpose is to make the device take into account both the printing function and the scanning function. That is to say, the printing function and the scanning function are independently distinguished. For example, if a paper document needs to be printed and scanned, the medium needs to be conveyed to the scanning module 4 by the paper feeding drive for scanning first, and then the paper feeding module rotates in the reverse direction to return the medium, and then rotates in the reverse direction to send the medium into the printing module 3 for printing. Its operation is non - continuous, so its efficiency is necessarily insufficient.
[0024] To solve the above - mentioned technical problems, this embodiment provides a synchronous scanning and printing device, including a printing module 3, a scanning module 4, and a cutting module 5 arranged in sequence according to the transmission direction of the printing object.
[0025] Different from Comparative Document 1, the synchronous scanning and printing device of this embodiment not only integrates the printing function, scanning function, and cutting function in terms of layout, but more importantly, the printing function, scanning function, and cutting function are arranged in sequence according to the transmission direction of the printing object. From the position, they are arranged in sequence according to the transmission direction of the printing paper. In a single paper feeding process, the printing paper passes through the printing module 3, scanning module 4, and cutting module 5 in sequence. The printing paper completes printing, scanning, and cutting in one paper feeding process. Or, in other words, a single drive drives the paper feeding of the printing paper to complete the printing, scanning, and cutting of the printing paper, greatly improving the printing efficiency. At the same time, this layout is compact, making the overall volume of the device small and the layout reasonable, maximizing the use of the internal space of the device. Moreover, the paper feeding of the printing paper is smooth and it is not easy to have paper jamming and other faults, having high commercial value.
[0026] Embodiment 2
[0027] This embodiment discloses a synchronous scanning and printing device, including a printing module 3, a scanning module 4, and a cutting module 5 arranged in sequence according to the transmission direction of the printing object.
[0028] Specifically, the printing module 3, scanning module 4, and cutting module 5 are arranged on the housing 1 and the machine cover 2. The machine cover 2 is rotatably connected to the housing 1. The cooperation states of the machine cover 2 and the housing 1 include: an open state and a closed state.
[0029] In a scanning and printing device, the cooperation mechanism between the housing 1 and the machine cover 2 belongs to a conventional technical solution. However, how to reasonably arrange the layout is still an important research and development direction for continuously optimizing the structure of scanning and printing equipment.
[0030] In a preferred embodiment of this solution, in the closed state, the printing module 3, scanning module 4, and cutting module 5 are arranged in sequence so that when the printing object is transmitted through the printing module 3, scanning module 4, and cutting module 5, it is basically on the same plane.
[0031] Since the printing object, usually a printing paper, has the characteristics of being soft and deformable. By arranging the printing module 3, scanning module 4, and cutting module 5 on basically the same plane, one end of which is connected to the paper passing shaft 8 and the other end is stretched and conveyed outward through the rubber roller 7, the printing paper can be stretched into a flat state as a whole. Whether it is printing, scanning, or cutting, the function implementation is better.
[0032] In addition, arranging the printing module 3, scanning module 4, and cutting module 5 on basically the same plane is based on a rigorous statement. Ideally, they can be arranged on the same plane. However, due to the difficulty of industrial implementation, as long as the working surfaces of the scanning and other modules are basically on the same plane, the purpose of better implementing the printing, scanning, and cutting functions can be achieved.
[0033] In addition, the working surfaces of the printing module 3, the scanning module 4, and the cutting module 5 may not be in the same plane. For example, the scanning module 4 in the middle can be located at a high point or a low point, that is, it can be reasonably avoided according to the internal layout of the scanning and printing device, or the printing paper can be straightened to a greater extent through a non-planar implementation method, or the overall state of the printing paper can be adjusted by raising or lowering the scanning module 4. That is: in the closed state, the printing module 3, the scanning module 4, and the cutting module 5 are arranged in sequence so that when the printing object is transmitted through the printing module 3, the scanning module 4, and the cutting module 5, it is segmented on multiple planes.
[0034] Embodiment III
[0035] This embodiment provides a synchronous scanning and printing device, including a printing module 3, a scanning module 4, and a cutting module 5 arranged in sequence according to the transmission direction of the printing object. The printing module 3, the scanning module 4, and the cutting module 5 are arranged on the machine housing 1 and the machine cover 2. The machine cover 2 is rotatably connected to the machine housing 1. The cooperation states of the machine cover 2 and the machine housing 1 include: an open state and a closed state.
[0036] Specifically, in the closed state, the machine cover 2 is fixed on the machine cover 2 through a latching mechanism to maintain the closed state. In the closed state, the latching force of the latching mechanism between the machine cover 2 and the machine housing 1 tightly adheres the printing object to the rubber roller 7 through the thermal head sheet of the printing module 3.
[0037] The printing module 3 includes a thermal head sheet and a rubber roller 7. The thermal head sheet and the rubber roller 7 are the core components for realizing the printing function, and the two cooperate to complete the printing operation. The rotation of the rubber roller 7 is realized by a driving motor, and the driving motor controls the rotation of the rubber roller 7 and drives the printing object to be transmitted in the machine housing 1.
[0038] The printing object is arranged on the machine housing 1 through a paper feeding shaft 8. One end of the roll-shaped printing object arranged on the paper feeding shaft 8 extends out and sequentially passes through the printing module 3, the scanning module 4, and the cutting module 5. When the rubber roller 7 rotates and drives the printing object to be transmitted in the machine housing 1 along the transmission direction, the paper feeding shaft 8 rotates synchronously and outputs the printing object.
[0039] Specifically, the scanning module 4 is arranged on the machine cover 2. A narrow channel or a roller structure is arranged in front of the sensor of the scanning module 4, and the cooperation distance and / or cooperation angle between the printing object and the sensor are controlled through the narrow channel or the roller structure.
[0040] The scanning module 4 obtains the printing information on the printed paper completed by the printing module 3, and the scanning module 4 stores or uploads the printing information to the cloud server.
[0041] The cutting module 5 includes a fixed knife and a moving knife 602. In the closed state, when the printing object passes through the cutting module 5, the fixed knife and the moving knife 602 are located on both sides of the printing object, and the moving knife 602 cooperates with the fixed knife to complete the cutting of the printing object. The fixed knife is arranged on the machine cover 2, and the moving knife 602 is arranged on the machine shell 1.
[0042] The cutting module 5 is the key inventive point of this embodiment. Reasonably arranging the cutting module 5 is the difficulty for the scanning and printing module 3 to achieve the cutting function in this embodiment. To solve this technical difficulty, the cutting module 5 provided in this embodiment realizes the cutting function through the cooperation of the fixed knife and the moving knife 602. Specifically, the control member includes a gear 6 installed in the machine shell 1. The gear 6 is connected to a motor and a rack. The top of the rack is fixedly connected to the moving knife 602. And a knife edge 604 for the moving knife 602 to extend out is provided at the top of the machine shell. A limiting seat 603 is arranged between the moving knife 602 and the side wall of the machine shell. A fixed knife cooperating with the moving knife 602 is fixedly connected to the machine cover 2. During the rotation of the gear 6, the moving knife 602 can be driven to move up and down through the rack. Through the mutual cooperation of the moving knife 602 and the fixed knife, the printed product can be cut off.
