Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of printing equipment technology, and in particular to a lettering machine with a cleaning function. Background Technology

[0002] In the practical application of miniaturized engraving machines, the cleanliness of the cutting head has always been an important factor affecting the performance and processing quality of the equipment. As the engraving machine is used for a longer period of time, powder and debris from the cutting material easily adhere to the cutting head assembly. If these residues are not cleaned in time, they will have an adverse effect on the cutting effect, such as inaccurate cutting and rough edges. Therefore, keeping the cutting head clean is particularly important for maintaining the normal operation of the engraving machine.

[0003] Traditionally, there are two main methods for cleaning the cutting head: manual wiping and setting up a separate cleaning structure. While manual wiping is direct and effective, it is inconvenient for workers due to the compact structure and limited operating area of ​​small engraving machines. In addition, manual cleaning also carries certain risks, such as accidental hand cuts or rough handling that causes wear on the cutting head, thus affecting engraving accuracy and the lifespan of the machine. Setting up a separate cleaning structure is a more automated cleaning method, but it usually needs to be done when the machine is stopped, meaning that the cutting head must be cleaned during the interval between processing tasks. This means that the engraving machine cannot continue to work during the cleaning period, reducing overall work efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, a lettering cutter with a cleaning function is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a lettering machine with a cleaning function, which aims to solve the problem that the cleaning of cutting tools in existing miniaturized equipment cannot be carried out simultaneously with lettering and printing, resulting in reduced printing efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned utility model objectives, this utility model proposes a lettering machine with a cleaning function, which is installed on the lettering machine and includes a base. The base includes a working area and a non-working area, and also includes a cutter assembly and a cleaning component. The cleaning component is disposed in the non-working area. The cutter assembly reciprocates between the working area and the non-working area. The cleaning component is connected to the base.

[0007] When the cleaning component cleans the cutter head assembly, the cleaning component is located in the non-working area.

[0008] Furthermore, when the cleaning component is located within the non-working area, the cutting head of the blade assembly is embedded in the cleaning component.

[0009] Furthermore, the base is provided with a strip groove, and the cleaning component is detachably connected to the strip groove.

[0010] Furthermore, the width of the cleaning component is greater than or equal to the diameter of the cutting head.

[0011] Furthermore, the size of the cleaning component is greater than or equal to twice the diameter of the cutting head.

[0012] Furthermore, the working area is the paper feeding area of ​​the engraving machine.

[0013] Furthermore, when the cleaning component is installed in the strip groove, one end of the cleaning component abuts against the engraving machine.

[0014] Furthermore, the cleaning component is a brush.

[0015] Beneficial effects:

[0016] This utility model discloses a cutting tool with a cleaning function, including a base with a working area and a non-working area, a cutting head assembly, and a cleaning component. The cleaning component is located in the non-working area, and the cutting head assembly reciprocates between the working and non-working areas. The cleaning component is connected to the base. When the cleaning component cleans the cutting head assembly, it is located in the non-working area. During the use of the cutting tool, the cutting head assembly is easily contaminated with powder or debris from the processed material, affecting the processing effect and accuracy. To avoid affecting the normal operation and paper feeding of the cutting tool, this design places the cleaning component in the non-working area. The cutting head assembly can reciprocate between the working and non-working areas to achieve a self-cleaning process. The cleaning component cleans the dust residue on the surface of the cutting head assembly through contact. The cleaning component is snap-fitted to the base to ensure easy replacement or cleaning when needed. The cleaning component's position in the non-working area does not interfere with the normal paper feeding function of the cutting tool when cleaning the cutting head assembly.

[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 3 A utility model embodiment of a lettering cutter with a cleaning function includes a base 100, the base 100 having a working area 110 and a non-working area 120, and also includes a cutter head assembly 200 and a cleaning component 300. The cleaning component 300 is disposed in the non-working area 120, the cutter head assembly 200 reciprocates between the working area 110 and the non-working area 120, and the cleaning component 300 is mounted on the base 100.

[0031] When the cleaning component 300 cleans the blade assembly 200, the cleaning component 300 is located within the non-working area 120;

[0032] The working area 110 is the paper feeding area of ​​the engraving machine.

[0033] During the use of the engraving machine, the cutter head assembly 200 is easily contaminated with powder or debris from the processed material, affecting the processing effect and accuracy. To avoid affecting the normal operation and paper feeding of the engraving machine, the cleaning component 300 is located in the non-working area 120. The cutter head assembly 200 can reciprocate between the working area 110 and the non-working area 120 to achieve a self-cleaning process. The cleaning component 300 cleans the dust residue on the surface of the cutter head assembly 200 by contacting it. The cleaning component 300 is snap-fitted to the base 100 to ensure easy replacement or cleaning when needed. The cleaning component 300 is designed to be located in the non-working area 120, so that cleaning the cutting head assembly 200 will not interfere with the normal paper feeding function of the engraving machine. This embodiment is suitable for small workshops or design printing shops that require efficient and precise processing. By ensuring the cleanliness of the cutting head assembly 200, the service life of the equipment is extended, and the poor engraving effect caused by too much powder or debris on the cutting head is effectively reduced. In this embodiment, the working area 110 is the paper feeding area of ​​the engraving machine, and the non-working area 120 is the cleaning area, in which the cutting head 210 is mainly cleaned.

[0034] When the cleaning component 300 is located in the non-working area 120, the cutting blade of the blade assembly 200 is embedded in the cleaning component 300;

[0035] The cleaning component 300 is a brush.

[0036] The cutting blade has a hemispherical head. When the cutting blade assembly 200 moves to the non-working area 120, the cutting blade of the cutting blade assembly 200 is embedded in the cleaning member 300 to clean the cutting blade and remove dust or debris. In this embodiment, during cleaning, the cutting blade 210 is embedded in the cleaning member 300. This design allows the cleaning member 300 to make all-round contact with the blade, which can effectively remove the dust and debris accumulated on the blade, and significantly enhance the cleaning effect.

[0037] The base 100 is provided with a strip groove 400, and the cleaning component 300 is detachably connected to the strip groove 400;

[0038] When the cleaning component 300 is installed in the strip groove 400, one end of the cleaning component 300 abuts against the engraving machine.

[0039] The base 100 is provided with a strip groove 400, and the cleaning component 300 is detachably placed in the strip groove 400. One end of the cleaning component 300 abuts against the engraving machine. By providing the strip groove 400 on the base 100, the cleaning component 300 can be smoothly fixed and maintain a stable position. This ensures that when the engraving machine is cleaning the cutter head, the shape and size of the strip groove 400 allow the cleaning component 300 to be locked in place when inserted, preventing displacement due to vibration or mechanical movement during operation. This effectively prevents the cleaning component 300 from sliding, thereby improving cleaning efficiency. In addition, one end of the cleaning component 300 is designed to abut against the side wall of the engraving machine. When it is necessary to replace the cleaning component 300, the user only needs to place it into the strip groove 400 and push it towards the side wall of the engraving machine to achieve precise positioning.

[0040] The width of the cleaning component 300 is greater than or equal to the diameter of the cutting blade.

[0041] When the cutter head assembly 200 is a single cutter head, the width of the cleaning component 300 is equal to the diameter of the cutting cutter head 210. This design allows the cleaning component 300 to completely cover the entire diameter of the cutter head, thereby ensuring that all parts of the cutter head surface are effectively contacted and cleaned during each cleaning process.

[0042] The size of the cleaning component 300 is greater than or equal to twice the diameter of the cutting blade.

[0043] When the cutter head assembly 200 is a dual-cutter head, the width of the cleaning component 300 is at least twice the diameter of the cutting cutter head 210. This design allows the cleaning component 300 to clean both cutter heads simultaneously when the cutter head assembly 200 moves to the non-working area 120, ensuring the cleanliness of the cutter heads and improving the cutting or engraving effect.

[0044] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
