[0030] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments:
[0031] A press-type toothpick holder includes a main body 1, a pressing component 14, a feeding component 15, and an operating component 2. The main body 1 has a toothpick placement part 11, a toothpick dispensing part 12, and a feeding part 13 connecting the placement part 11 and the dispensing part 12. The placement part 11 has a feeding port 111 that connects to the feeding part 13 and feeds the toothpick horizontally. The pressing component 14 is disposed in the feeding part 13 and is opposite to the dispensing part 12. The feeding component 15 is rotatably disposed in the feeding part 13 and is located in front of the feeding port 111 of the placement part 11. The feeding component 15 has a first feeding groove 1 sequentially arranged along its rotation direction. 51 and the second feeding slot 152, the operating member 2 is connected to the feeding member 15 for driving its rotation, the first feeding slot 151 is used to place the toothpick delivered by the feeding port 111, by driving the feeding member 15 to rotate in the first direction, when the second feeding slot 152 moves under the pressing member 14, the toothpick located in the first feeding slot 151 falls into the second feeding slot 152; or by driving the feeding member 15 to rotate in the second direction, the toothpick located in the second feeding slot 152 abuts against the pressing member 14, so that the toothpick flips into the dispensing part 12 and is dispensed.
[0032] Combination Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the main body 1 of this patent includes a base 17 and an outer cover 16 fixed on the base 17. The base 17 is generally square, and the outer cover 16 is fastened to the base 17. The outer cover 16 has a lower opening that fastens to the base 17, and corresponding fastening structures are provided on the lower opening and the edge of the base 17. The toothpick placement part 11 and the toothpick dispensing part 12 are two grooves formed on the top of the outer cover 16. The groove of the toothpick placement part 11 is V-shaped, and its length is adapted to the length of a general toothpick. The user can lay several toothpicks flat in the toothpick placement part 11, and the toothpick will gradually move towards the bottom due to the V-shaped structure of the toothpick placement part 11. A toothpick dispensing port 111 with a length consistent with the toothpick placement part 11 is opened at the bottom of the toothpick placement part 11. The dispensing part 12 is located on one side of the placing part 11. Specifically, it is a strip-shaped groove, the length of which allows the toothpick to be flipped upward and fed out. The lower end of the dispensing part 12 is connected to the inside of the outer cover 16. When the outer cover 16 is fixed on the base 17, the feeding part 13 is formed between the two. At this time, the dispensing part 12 is connected to the feeding part 13.
[0033] The label delivery component 15 is cylindrical in shape. In this embodiment, the base 17 has annular walls at both ends and a transition groove 171 on the support wall. The label delivery component 15 has transition pins 156 placed on the transition groove 171 at both ends to achieve the rotational connection of the label delivery component 15. At the same time, after the outer cover 16 is fixed on the base 17, the label delivery component 15 is located below the label delivery port 111 and inside the label delivery part 13.
[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, the stencil feeder 15 is provided with a first stencil feeder groove 151 and a second stencil feeder groove 152 in sequence along its rotation direction. The first stencil feeder groove 151 is formed on the stencil feeder 15 and is specifically a strip-shaped arc-shaped groove with a length adapted to a toothpick, capable of accommodating at least one toothpick. The second stencil feeder groove 152 is disposed in the first stencil feeder groove 151. In this embodiment, the stencil feeder 15 is provided with a support portion 154 located on one side of the first stencil feeder groove 151. The support portion 154 contains the second stencil feeder groove 152. The support portion 154 includes a plurality of barbed heads 1541 that are sequentially fixed to one side of the stencil feeder 15. The barbed heads 1541 extend upward, and the plurality of barbed heads 1541 are sequentially connected to form the second stencil feeder groove 152. Figure 4 , 5 As shown, Figure 4 In this state, the toothpick enters the first toothpick feeding slot 151 through the toothpick feeding port 111. Figure 4In this state, the toothpick feeder 15 rotates, causing the toothpick located in the first toothpick feeder groove 151 to enter the support part 154 under the action of its gravity. Since the support part 154 has an upward barb structure, it can reliably support the toothpick.
[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, the pressing component 14 is disposed in the feeding part 13 and opposite to the dispensing part 12. Specifically, the pressing component 14 is a vertically placed pressing plate, integrally formed within the outer cover 16. The connection to the feeding component 15 is used to drive its rotation. In this patent, the operating component 2 includes a pressing block 21, located at one end of the outer cover 16. The outer cover 16 also has a pressing groove 161 for mounting the operating component 2, located on one side of the placing part 11 and the dispensing part 12. Correspondingly, the base 17 accommodates the lower end of the pressing block 21. The pressing block 21 is provided with a connecting arm 22. A circular rotating head 153 is provided at one end of the feeding component 15. The adapter has a strip-shaped hole 221, and the connecting arm 22 has an adapter shaft located in the strip-shaped hole 221. The connecting arm 22 is connected to one end of the adapter by the adapter shaft and the strip-shaped hole 221, so that the label feeding component 15 can be rotated by pressing down the pressure block 21. The pressure block 21 is also connected to a reset component 23 for driving it to reset. The reset component 23 is a spring, which is fitted on the lower end of the pressure block 21 to give the pressure block 21 an upward reset force.
[0036] In conclusion, combined again Figure 4 , 5 As shown, under normal conditions, the pressure block 21 swings upward under the action of the reset member 23, thereby driving the toothpick feeder 15 to swing upward, that is, to swing in the second direction, so that the first toothpick feeding groove 151 on the toothpick feeder 15 is aligned with the toothpick feeding port 111, so that the toothpick is fed horizontally from the toothpick feeding port 111 into the first toothpick feeding groove 151. Then, the user drives the operating member 2, that is, presses down the pressure block 21 to make the toothpick feeder 15 swing downward, that is, to swing in the first direction, as shown. Figure 5 As shown, the toothpick in the first toothpick feeding slot 151 will fall out of the first toothpick feeding slot 151 and pass through the gap between the pressing member 14 and the feeding member 15 to fall onto the second toothpick feeding slot 152. At this time, the toothpick is above the pressing member 14. Then, the user releases the pressing block 21 to make the feeding member 15 swing in the second direction. The toothpick is driven to rise through the second toothpick feeding slot 152 and come into contact with the pressing member 14. This causes the toothpick to swing around the pressing member 14 and stand vertically, and is then fed out from the feeding part 13 for the user to take.
[0037] In summary, this patent achieves automatic toothpick dispensing through a rotating toothpick feeder 15 structure. The overall structure is simple, and the dispensing process does not cause significant structural movement, thereby increasing the overall structural stability and extending product lifespan.
[0038] Furthermore, one end of the toothpick feeder 15 has a protrusion 155 along its outer edge. The protrusion 155 is adjacent to the toothpick pressing member 14 and is used to position the toothpick between the protrusion 155 and the toothpick pressing member 14 when the toothpick feeder 15 rotates in the second direction. Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the protrusion 155 is fan-shaped, which is used to limit the position of the toothpick and prevent it from swinging to one side and falling back into the toothpick feeding part 13 after being fed out. Furthermore, the toothpick pressing member 14 has a toothpick dispensing groove 141 arranged along the toothpick feeding direction; the toothpick dispensing groove 141 is arc-shaped, which is used to better accommodate the toothpick and prevent the toothpick from being damaged by mutual squeezing between the protrusion 155 and the toothpick pressing member 14.
