[0039] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] In the following description, when referring to the accompanying drawings, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0041] In related technologies, after the wire marking tube printer finishes printing the wire marking tubes, they need to be cut before being sent out. However, during the operation, there is a possibility of fingers being cut.

[0042] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a wire marking tube printer. A tube feeding slot is provided on the main unit, and a cutting element is positioned along the extension path of the feeding slot to cut the wire marking tube. Simultaneously, a limiting component is provided between the cutting element and the tube outlet of the feeding slot. This limiting component prevents foreign objects from entering the feeding slot through the outlet and contacting the cutting element. Furthermore, a preset gap is provided within the feeding slot for the wire marking tube to extend beyond the slot, thereby ensuring smooth tube output while preventing fingers from entering the feeding slot through the outlet and being cut by the cutting element.

[0043] See Figures 1 to 3 An embodiment of this application provides a wire marking tube printer 1, which includes a main unit 10, a cutting component 20, and a limiting component 30. The main unit 10 includes a housing, the shape of which is not limited. The housing provides mounting references and accommodating space for other mechanical and electrical components of the wire marking tube printer 1.

[0044] The main unit 10 is provided with a tube placement groove 11 for placing the wire gauge tube 2. The specific form of the tube placement groove 11 is not limited and is selected according to the layout design requirements of the main unit 10. For example, the extension path of the tube placement groove 11 can be a straight line, a broken line, or a curve. The width of the tube placement groove 11 is uniform or varies along the extension direction. The depth of the tube placement groove 11 is uniform or varies along the extension direction. The width direction and the depth direction of the tube placement groove 11 are intersecting, for example, perpendicular.

[0045] Further reading Figure 4 The pipe-laying groove 11 has a pipe outlet 111. Specifically, the pipe outlet 111 is a channel formed by the pipe-laying groove 11 penetrating the end face of the housing along the extension direction of the pipe-laying groove 11. The shape of the channel is the same as the cross-sectional shape of the pipe-laying groove 11 on the plane where the end face is located, such as a circle, ellipse, rectangle, triangle, trapezoid, or an irregular shape composed of these shapes.

[0046] The cutting component 20 is mounted on the main unit 10, and is partially or entirely located within the tube placement groove 11 to cut the printed wire tube 2. The shape, material, installation method, and driving method of the cutting motion of the cutting component 20 are described in reference to relevant technologies and will not be elaborated here.

[0047] Combination Figures 2 to 4 The limiting component 30 is provided on the main unit 10. A part of the limiting component 30 blocks the outlet 111 and the cutting component 20, or the entire limiting component 30 blocks the outlet 111 and the cutting component 20, so as to restrict foreign objects from entering the discharge slot 11 through the outlet 111. The foreign objects include the operator's fingers, debris, etc.

[0048] Further reading Figure 5 and Figure 6 While the limiting component 30 is limiting the position, a preset gap H is also provided in the tube placement groove 11, through which the wire tube 2 can extend out of the tube placement groove 11. The preset gap H is a fixed size gap, or the preset gap H is a gap with variable size, just enough to ensure that the wire tube 2 can extend out of the tube placement groove 11 smoothly.

[0049] Based on this, the limiting component 30 is used to restrict foreign objects from entering the tube release groove 11 through the tube outlet 111 and contacting the cutting component 20. The tube release groove 11 is provided with a preset gap H for the wire number tube 2 to extend out of the tube release groove 11. This ensures smooth tube release while preventing fingers from entering the tube release groove 11 through the tube outlet 111 and being cut by the cutting component 20. It also prevents some debris from entering the tube release groove 11 through the tube outlet 111 and contaminating the tube release groove 11.

[0050] Optionally, the host 10 is equipped with a printing assembly, which includes a print head and a ribbon. During printing, the ribbon is located between the print head and the wire marking tube 2. The print head presses the ribbon against the surface of the wire marking tube 2 to achieve printing. The wire marking tube 2 is also called a sleeve or wire marking sleeve. The wire marking is printed on the sleeve by the wire marking tube printer 1 for wiring identification.

[0051] Combination Figures 3 to 6 In some embodiments, the pipe-laying groove 11 has two side walls facing each other along its width direction, and the outlet 111 is located at one end of the longitudinal extension direction of the pipe-laying groove 11. The width direction of the pipe-laying groove 11 intersects with the longitudinal extension direction of the pipe-laying groove 11. It should be noted that although the width direction of the pipe-laying groove 11 is different at different positions in the extension direction of the pipe-laying groove 11 when the extension path of the pipe-laying groove 11 is not straight, the width direction of the pipe-laying groove 11 intersects with the longitudinal extension direction of the pipe-laying groove 11 at any position in the extension direction of the pipe-laying groove 11, for example, perpendicularly.

[0052] The limiting component 30 includes a limiting member 31, which is connected to the main unit 10, and a preset gap H is provided between the limiting member 31 and one side of the groove wall. Based on this, the limiting member 31 can restrict foreign objects from entering the room tube groove through the outlet 111, while the wire delivery tube can extend out of the delivery groove 11 through the preset gap H, thereby ensuring smooth wire delivery and preventing fingers from being cut by inserting into the delivery groove 11.

[0053] In some embodiments, the limiting member 31 is movably connected to the host 10 to adjust the size of the preset gap H. In this way, the size of the preset gap H can be adjusted according to the size of the wire tube 2, its movement state, etc., thereby expanding the applicability of the wire tube printer 1 and improving the smoothness of tube output.

[0054] Optionally, the movable connection method includes telescopic connection and rotational connection. Telescopic components include elastic telescopic and multi-stage telescopic. For elastic telescopic and multi-stage telescopic structures, please refer to relevant technologies, which will not be elaborated here.

[0055] In some embodiments, the limiting member 31 is rotatably connected to the main unit 10 to adjust the size of the preset gap H. Thus, when the wire tube 2 moves within the tube placement groove 11, the limiting member 31 can rotate along with the movement of the wire tube 2, thereby flexibly adjusting the size of the preset gap H according to the movement of the wire tube 2, making the outlet of the wire tube 2 smoother.

[0056] See Figures 5 to 8 In some embodiments, the limiting component 30 includes a limiting member 31, a connecting post 32, and a torsion spring 33. The connecting post 32 is connected to the limiting member 31 and rotatably connected to the host 10. The torsion spring 33 includes a main body 331, a first connecting arm 332, and a second connecting arm 333. The first connecting arm 332 and the second connecting arm 333 are respectively connected to the two ends of the main body 331. The main body is sleeved on the connecting post 32, the first connecting arm 332 is connected to the limiting member 31, and the second connecting arm 333 is connected to the host 10. Thus, during the rotation of the limiting member 31 relative to the host 10, the included angle between the first connecting arm 332 and the second connecting arm 333 of the torsion spring 33 changes. For example, when the included angle decreases, the torsion spring 33 will generate a restoring force that tends to restore the included angle to a larger value.

[0057] Based on this, during the movement of the wire tube 2 within the tube placement groove 11, it exerts a squeezing force on the limiting member 31. This squeezing force drives the limiting member 31 to rotate relative to the main unit 10, causing the torsion spring 33 to generate a rebound force. This rebound force acts on the wire tube 2 through the limiting member 31, creating a mutual abutting force between the wire tube 2 and the limiting member 31. This maintains the size of the preset gap H within the tube placement groove 11 at a state that allows the wire tube 2 to pass through in the tube exit direction, ensuring smooth tube exit while preventing fingers from being cut by inserting them into the tube placement groove 11. Furthermore, when the external force acting on the limiting member 31 is removed, for example, when the wire tube 2 has completely left the tube placement groove 11, the limiting member 31 can rotate in the opposite direction to reset under the rebound force of the torsion spring 33.

[0058] See Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the limiting member 31 is provided with a second limiting part 312, and the host 10 is provided with a third limiting part 313. The second limiting part 312 and the third limiting part 313 are coupled to restrict the limiting member 31 from moving relative to the host 10 in directions other than the rotation direction. In this way, the rotation of the limiting member 31 is more stable, thereby making the tube exiting process of the wire tube 2 more stable.

[0059] Optionally, both the second limiting part 312 and the third limiting part 313 are constructed in a U-shape and are inverted and snapped together to achieve coupling between them. This results in a simple structure and low cost.

[0060] In some embodiments, the limiting component 30 includes a limiting member 31 connected to the host 10. The limiting member 31 has an initial position and an extreme position. The preset gap H when the limiting member 31 is in the initial position is smaller than the preset gap H when the limiting member 31 is in the extreme position. Thus, when the limiting member 31 is in the initial position, the preset gap H is smaller, which can limit foreign objects from entering the discharge slot 11 through the outlet 111 to a greater extent. When the limiting member 31 is in the extreme position, the preset gap H is larger, and the wire tube 2 can exit more smoothly. At the same time, since the wire tube 2 acts as a block at the outlet 111, it can also limit foreign objects from entering the discharge slot 11 through the outlet 111.

[0061] In some embodiments, when the limiting member 31 is in the initial position, the width of the preset gap H along the width direction of the tube placement groove 11 ranges from 0.1mm to 15mm. For example, the width of the preset gap H is 0.5mm, 1mm, or 5mm. Thus, the preset gap H is relatively small, allowing the limiting member 31 to restrict small objects from entering the tube placement groove 11 through the outlet 111.

[0062] See Figure 5 and Figure 6In some embodiments, a boss 112 protrudes from the bottom wall of the pipe-laying groove 11. When the limiting member 31 is in its initial position, the side of the limiting member 31 facing away from the outlet 111 abuts against the boss 112 to restrict the limiting member 31 from exceeding the initial position in the direction away from the outlet 111. Thus, when an external object exerts a force on the limiting member 31 toward the pipe-laying groove 11, due to the abutment of the boss 112 against the limiting member 31, the limiting member 31 will not exceed the initial position in the direction away from the outlet 111. That is, the limiting member 31 does not change the size of the preset gap H with the force of the external object, thereby ensuring that the limiting member 31 maintains a state that can restrict the external object from entering the pipe-laying groove 11 through the outlet 111.

[0063] In some embodiments, the protrusion height of the boss 112 along the depth direction of the tube placement groove 11 ranges from 0.5mm to 2mm, for example, the protrusion height of the boss 112 is 0.6mm, 1mm, or 1.5mm. The depth direction of the tube placement groove 11 intersects with both the width direction and the longitudinal extension direction of the tube placement groove 11. Exemplarily, the depth direction, width direction, and longitudinal extension direction of the tube placement groove 11 are all perpendicular to each other. Thus, along the depth direction of the tube placement groove 11, the contact range between the boss 112 and the limiting member 31 is sufficient, allowing the limiting member 31 to stably abut against the boss 112. Simultaneously, the height of the boss 112 is not excessive, thereby ensuring smooth tube delivery.

[0064] See Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the main unit 10 is provided with a stop post 113, and the limiting member 31 is provided with a first limiting part 311. The stop post 113 can abut against the first limiting part 311 to limit the limiting member 31 from exceeding the limit position in the direction toward the outlet 111. In this way, during the outlet process of the wire tube 2, the limiting member 31 can rotate with the movement of the wire tube 2 to adjust the size of the preset gap H. At the same time, due to the abutment action of the stop post 113, the adjustment of the preset gap H by the limiting member 31 is limited to the set range, thereby preventing the limiting member 31 from interfering with other parts of the main unit 10.

[0065] Combination Figures 5 to 8 In some embodiments, the main unit 10 has an inner side 114 and an outer side 115, with the tube slot 11 located on the outer side 115. A portion of the limiting member 31 is located on the inner side 114, and another portion is located on the outer side 115. A stop post 113 is located on the inner side 114, and a first limiting portion 311 is provided on the portion of the limiting member 31 located on the inner side 114. In this way, the stop post 113 and a portion of the limiting member 31 are hidden on the inner side 114 of the main unit 10, making full use of the space on the inner side 114 of the main unit 10 and making the space on the outer side 115 of the main unit 10 neater.

[0066] See Figure 9 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, the main unit 10 has a cavity 116 located beside the tube placement groove 11. The groove wall of the tube placement groove 11 has an opening 117 communicating with the cavity 116 and the tube placement groove 11. A portion of the limiting member 31 is accommodated in the cavity 116, and another portion extends into the tube placement groove 11 through the opening 117. In this way, during the rotation of the limiting member 31, the cavity 116 can accommodate the portion of the limiting member 31 that moves out of the tube placement groove 11.

[0067] Continue reading Figure 9 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, the opening 117 has a first sidewall 1171 and a second sidewall 1172 that are opposite to each other along the longitudinal extension direction of the tube outlet 11, with the first sidewall 1171 being further away from the outlet 111 than the second sidewall 1172. The limiting member 31 has a first surface 314 and a second surface 315 that are opposite to each other, with the first surface 314 being further away from the outlet 111 than the second surface 315. The limiting member 31 is movably connected to the host 10 to adjust the size of a preset gap H. During the movement of the limiting member 31, the first sidewall 1171 can abut against the first surface 314 to limit the range of movement of the limiting member 31 in the direction away from the outlet 111. Thus, the first sidewall 1171 of the opening 117 can abut against the first surface 314 of the limiting member 31, limiting the rotation angle of the limiting member 31 within a preset range, thereby maintaining the limiting member 31 in a state that prevents foreign objects from entering the tube outlet 111 through the outlet 111.

[0068] Optionally, compared to the initial state of the limiting member 31, the first sidewall 1171 abuts against the first surface 314, and the limiting member 31 is further away from the outlet 111, for example, the rotation angle is larger. In other words, when the limiting member 31 is in the initial state, the first sidewall 1171 and the first surface 314 are spaced apart; when the condition preventing the limiting member 31 from exceeding the initial position in the direction away from the outlet 111 fails, for example, when the boss 112 is worn, the first sidewall 1171 can abut against the first surface 314 to limit the rotation angle of the limiting member 31 beyond the initial position. In this way, a double guarantee is formed to prevent the limiting member 31 from exceeding the initial position in the direction away from the outlet 111, thereby improving the sustainability of the cut prevention effect.

[0069] In some embodiments, the height of the opening 117 is greater than the height of the limiting member 31 along the depth direction of the tube placement groove 11. The depth direction of the tube placement groove 11 intersects with both the width direction and the longitudinal extension direction of the tube placement groove 11; for example, the depth direction, width direction, and longitudinal extension direction of the tube placement groove 11 are all perpendicular to each other. Thus, the limiting member 31 will not contact the top wall of the opening 117 during rotation, preventing jamming and ensuring smoother rotation.

[0070] In some embodiments, the limiting member 31 has a third surface 316 facing the bottom wall of the tube placement groove 11. At any position during the rotation of the limiting member 31, the third surface 316 is located above the bottom wall of the tube placement groove 11, and the orthographic projection of the third surface 316 on the plane where the bottom wall of the groove is located overlaps with the bottom wall of the groove, thereby preventing the limiting member 31 from falling below the bottom wall of the limiting groove after rotating into the opening 117, and thus preventing the limiting member 31 from getting stuck at the opening 117.

[0071] See Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the limiting component 30 includes a first rolling rubber roller 34, which is used to roll and contact the wire gauge tube 2 during tube exit. Thus, during the tube exit process, the first rolling rubber roller 34 rolls as the wire gauge tube 2 moves, which can reduce the friction force on the wire gauge tube 2, thereby making the tube exit process smoother.

[0072] Continue reading Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, a second rolling rubber roller 40 is provided inside the tube-feeding groove 11. The second rolling rubber roller 40 is used to roll and contact the wire gauge tube 2 during tube discharge. The second rolling rubber roller 40 and the limiting component 30 are respectively located on opposite sides of the width direction of the tube-feeding groove 11, and the width direction of the tube-feeding groove 11 intersects with the longitudinal extension direction of the tube-feeding groove 11. In this way, during the tube discharge process, the second rolling rubber roller 40 rolls with the movement of the wire gauge tube 2, which can reduce the friction force on the wire gauge tube 2, thereby making the tube discharge process smoother. At the same time, the second rolling rubber roller 40 and the limiting component 30 are respectively located on opposite sides of the width direction of the tube-feeding groove 11, so that the setting of the second rolling rubber roller 40 and the limiting component 30 does not interfere with each other.

[0073] In one exemplary embodiment, the wire marking tube printer 1 includes a main unit 10, a cutting component 20, a limiting component 30, and a second rolling roller 40. The main unit 10 is provided with a tube placement groove 11 for placing the wire marking tube 2, and the tube placement groove 11 has a tube outlet 111 for the wire marking tube 2 to exit. The cutting component 20 is disposed on the main unit 10, and the cutting component 20 is partially or entirely located in the tube placement groove 11 to cut the printed wire marking tube 2.

[0074] The limiting assembly 30 includes a limiting member 31 and a first rolling rubber roller 34. The limiting member 31 is connected to the main unit 10, and a preset gap H is provided between the limiting member 31 and one side wall of the tube placement groove 11 for the wire gauge tube 2 to extend out of the tube placement groove 11. The first rolling rubber roller 34 is rotatably connected to the side of the limiting member 31 facing the preset gap H.

[0075] The second rolling rubber roller 40 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the tube release groove 11 facing the limiting member 31. Along the extending direction of the tube release groove 11, the second rolling rubber roller 40 is offset from the first rolling rubber roller 34, so as to achieve a continuous rolling traction effect and increase the obstruction of foreign objects entering the tube release groove 11 through the outlet 111.

[0076] Based on the above embodiments, the wire tube 2 can smoothly exit through the outlet 111 along the outlet direction, while foreign objects such as the operator's fingers cannot enter the tube slot 11 through the outlet 111, thereby ensuring smooth tube exit while providing a good anti-cut effect.
