Description

Technical Field

[0002] A plotter is a device that draws graphics according to input into the system and can print out computer output information in the form of graphics. With the support of drawing software, a plotter can draw complex and precise graphics and is an indispensable tool for various computer-aided design tasks. For industries that require printing large drawings, such as clothing patterns, carton proofing, and large outdoor advertising patterns, roll-type printing paper is often used to feed plotters. However, this type of drawing printing generally requires manual cutting of the printed drawing portion from the roll material after the drawing is completed. This method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, especially when the roll-type printing paper used is large in size. Manual cutting is very inconvenient and the edges of the cut paper are not smooth.

[0003] Therefore, the existing technology has defects and needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0017] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0018] See also Figures 1 to 3 The utility model provides a plotter nozzle 3 structure with a cutting mechanism, comprising: a machine platform 1, a nozzle moving module 2 arranged on the machine platform 1, and a printer nozzle 3 arranged on the moving end of the nozzle moving module 2, a knife clamp 4 is connected to the printer nozzle 3, a knife clamp 4 is provided on the knife clamp 4, and a knife head lifting assembly is provided on the output end of the knife head lifting assembly. A cutting knife head is provided on the output end of the knife head lifting assembly.

[0019] During the drawing printing process, the nozzle moving module 2 drives the printer nozzle 3 to move and prints the set color at the corresponding position according to the input image information. At the same time, the feeding mechanism transports the roll printing paper forward to print the input image on the printing paper. After printing is completed, the nozzle moving module 2 moves the printer nozzle 3 to the extreme position, and the cutter head lifting assembly drives the cutting head to move downward so that the blade surface of the cutting head contacts the printing paper. The nozzle moving module 2 then drives the printer nozzle 3 to move to the other side of the machine 1, so that the cutting head cuts the printing paper. After cutting is completed, the cutter head lifting assembly resets so that the cutter head leaves the height position of the printing paper.

[0020] The utility model controls the working state of the cutting head through the cutter head lifting assembly, and the cutting head is driven to move by the nozzle moving module 2, so as to realize the cutting of printing paper. Compared with the manual cutting method used in the prior art, the utility model can effectively improve the cutting efficiency of printing paper, and ensure that the edges of the printing paper after cutting are smooth, thereby ensuring the cutting effect.

[0021] In some embodiments, the tool head lifting assembly utilizes an electromagnetic lift rod, which includes a fixed base clamped on the tool holder 4, a lift base extending through the fixed base, and a tool head fixture mounted on the lift base. The cutting tool head is clamped in the tool head fixture. Electromagnetic components are respectively mounted on the fixed base and the lift base, and the relative position of the lift base and the fixed base is controlled by changing the polarity of the electromagnetic components. The electromagnetic component mounted on one side of the fixed base or the lift base utilizes an electromagnet, while the electromagnetic component on the other side utilizes an electromagnet or a permanent magnet.

[0022] During operation, when cutting is required, the electromagnetic assembly is energized, causing the polarity of the electromagnetic assembly on the fixed base to be opposite to the polarity of the electromagnetic assembly on the lifting base, thereby generating a magnetic attraction between the fixed base and the lifting base, causing the lifting base to move toward the fixed base, thereby moving the cutting head downward. After the cutting work is completed, the polarity of the electromagnetic assembly is changed, thereby generating a long magnetic repulsion between the fixed base and the lifting base, causing the lifting base to move away from the fixed base, thereby moving the cutting head upward.

[0023] In some optional embodiments, a spring is provided between the fixed seat and the lifting seat. When cutting is required, the lifting seat moves toward the fixed seat under the action of magnetic attraction. The spring can provide a buffer for the lifting seat to prevent the lifting seat from descending too quickly and causing a rigid collision, which could damage the lifting seat and the fixed seat due to the collision, or cause the cutting head to hit the table of the machine 1, causing the blade to break or the table to be damaged, thereby improving safety. At the same time, after the cutting work is completed, the electromagnetic component can be directly powered off to lose the magnetic effect between the electromagnetic components. As a result, the lifting seat is lifted up under the elastic force of the spring, and the cutting head is reset.

[0024] In some optional embodiments, the cutter head lifting assembly uses a cylinder or an electric push rod. When the cylinder or electric push rod is activated, the piston rod is extended, thereby moving the cutting head downward, making it easier to cut the printed paper through the cutting head.

[0025] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 The tool holder 4 includes a connecting portion 41 and a clamping portion 42. The connecting portion 41 is connected to the printer nozzle 3. The clamping portion 42 is provided with a clamping hole 421. The tool head lifting assembly passes through the clamping hole 421. The end of the tool holder 4 is provided with a clamping groove 422. The clamping groove 422 extends from the clamping hole 421 to the end face of the tool holder 4. The front and rear side walls of the tool holder 4 are provided with through holes 423 corresponding to the side walls of the clamping groove 422. A screw is passed through the through hole 423 and locked in a nut to tighten the clamping groove 422. By providing the clamping groove 422, the clamping hole 421 can be expanded to a certain extent. After the tool head lifting assembly passes through the clamping hole 421, a screw is passed through the through hole 423 and locked, thereby tightening the clamping hole 421 and clamping the tool head lifting assembly.

[0026] The connecting portion 41 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes, through which screws are passed and locked on the printer nozzle 3, thereby connecting the knife clamp 4 and the printer nozzle 3, so as to facilitate the movement of the cutting knife head by the nozzle moving module 2 to realize cutting of the printing paper.

[0027] To sum up, the utility model controls the working state of the cutting head through the cutting head lifting assembly, and drives the cutting head to move by the nozzle moving module, so as to realize the cutting of printing paper. Compared with the manual cutting method used in the prior art, it can effectively improve the cutting efficiency of printing paper, and ensure that the edges of the printing paper after cutting are smooth, thereby ensuring the cutting effect.

[0028] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
