[0044] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 Each flow guide piece 210 is arranged at intervals along a first direction X, and the flow guide piece 210 extends along a second direction Y. The above arrangement can form a plurality of flow guide channels 240 arranged at intervals along the first direction X, and each flow guide channel 240 extends along the second direction Y. The extension line of the first direction X intersects the extension line of the second direction Y. Specifically, the angle between the extension line of the first direction X and the extension line of the second direction Y can be an acute angle, an obtuse angle or a right angle, so that the flow guide piece 210 can cover the top opening of the ink receiving cavity 110. It should be noted that, in order to facilitate description and understanding, the first direction X and the second direction Y are schematically shown by arrows in Figure 5 and Figure 6 The specific directions of the first direction X and the second direction Y are not limited to the directions indicated by the arrows in the figures.

[0045] In some embodiments, the flow guide piece 210 can comprise a flow guide section 211, and the flow guide section 211 has a second angle with a vertical plane. In this way, the flow guide section 211 is arranged at an angle, which can prevent the ink from splashing and facilitate the ink flowing into the ink receiving cavity 110 along the flow guide section 211.

[0046] In some embodiments, please refer toFigure 3 The guide vane 210 can include at least two guide segments 211, each of which is connected in sequence along the vertical direction and has a first included angle with each other so as to have an inflection point between adjacent guide segments 211, so that the guide direction of the guide segments 211 to the ink can be changed from multiple angles, thereby reducing the odor volatilization of the ink, and each guide segment 211 also has a second included angle with the vertical plane, that is, the at least two guide segments 211 are arranged obliquely relative to the vertical plane rather than extending along the vertical direction, and the guide segments 211 can also better prevent the ink from splashing.

[0047] In a preferred embodiment, the guide vane 210 includes two guide segments 211, which are connected in a V shape and arranged symmetrically along the vertical direction, so as to better block large-particle objects from falling into the ink receiving cavity 110 and also to prevent the odor of the waste liquid in the ink receiving cavity 110 from flowing outward.

[0048] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 The guide segment 211 has a planar structure, which improves the flow speed of the ink from the guide channel 240 into the ink receiving cavity. Specifically, when the guide vane 210 includes two guide segments 211, the two guide segments 211 are connected by a rounded corner so that the ink can flow smoothly between the two adjacent guide vanes 210. It can be understood that in other embodiments of the present application, the guide segment 211 can also have a curved or arc surface structure. The guide segment 211 with a curved or arc surface structure can guide the fluid and buffer the ink entering the ink receiving cavity 110 from the guide channel 240, which is not limited herein.

[0049] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 The guide structure 200 further includes two mounting members 220, and the guide vanes 210 are respectively mounted to the two mounting members 220 at opposite ends along the second direction Y.

[0050] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5The mounting member 220 has a plurality of slots 221, and the opposite ends of the guide vane 210 are respectively inserted into the corresponding slots 221 of the two mounting members 220. During assembly, one end of each guide vane 210 is inserted into the corresponding slot 221 of one of the mounting members 220, and the other end of each guide vane 210 is inserted into the corresponding slot 221 of the other mounting member 220, so that the guide vanes 210 are assembled into a whole by the two mounting members 220. The slots 221 facilitate the positioning and mounting of the guide vanes 210 in the mounting members 220, and the assembly is simple and does not require locking each guide vane 210. It can be understood that in other embodiments of the present application, the opposite ends of the guide vanes 210 can also be welded or screwed to the mounting members 220, which is not limited herein.

[0051] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 6 The guide structure 200 further includes a frame 230 surrounding the guide vanes 210 and the two mounting members 220, the two mounting members 220 are respectively locked and fixed to the frame 230, and the frame 230 is detachably connected to the ink receiving tray 100. The frame 230 can make the circumferential surface of the entire guide structure 200 neat and beautiful, and facilitate the assembly of the guide structure 200.

[0052] Specifically, referring to Figure 7 The inner side of the frame 230 is formed with a groove 231, and the two mounting members 220 are respectively received in the groove 231 and locked and fixed to the frame 230 by fasteners.

[0053] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 8 and Figure 9 The bottom of the ink receiving cavity 110 is provided with a waste outlet 120, the guide structure 200 is detachably connected to the ink receiving tray 100, and the ink receiving device further includes a base 300 having a receiving cavity 310, the ink receiving tray 100 is movably arranged in the base 300 and can slide out of the receiving cavity 310, and the ink receiving tray 100 can slide back to the receiving cavity 310. Specifically, in a normal use state, the ink receiving tray 100 is received in the receiving cavity 310, the guide structure 200 is arranged at the top opening of the ink receiving tray 100, and the nozzle moves above the ink receiving tray 100 to discharge ink. When it is necessary to clean the waste outlet 120, the ink receiving tray 100 is slid out of the receiving cavity 310, and the guide structure 200 is removed to facilitate the user to clean the waste outlet 120 to prevent the waste outlet 120 from being blocked.

[0054] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 9 and Figure 10 The ink receiving device further includes a limiting structure 400 for limiting the ink receiving tray 100 that is reset in place.

[0055] Specifically, the ink receiving tray 100 is slidable relative to the base 300 and has a first position and a second position. When the ink receiving tray 100 is in the first position, the ink receiving tray 100 is accommodated in the accommodation cavity 310 of the base 300. When the ink receiving tray 100 is in the second position, the ink receiving tray 100 extends relative to the base 300.

[0056] When the ink receiving tray 100 is reset from the second position to the first position, the limiting structure 400 can limit the ink receiving tray 100 in the first position, avoiding the ink receiving tray 100 deviating from the first position due to sliding during the ink receiving process, so as to ensure that the ink receiving tray 100 can stably be positioned below the inkjet equipment during the ink receiving process, ensuring the accuracy of ink receiving and avoiding ink spilling to other places.

[0057] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 10 , the limiting structure 400 includes a positioning member 410 and a positioning hole 423. The positioning member 410 is arranged on the ink receiving tray 100 and is at least partially axially retractable. The positioning hole 423 is arranged on the base 300. The positioning member 410 can be inserted into the positioning hole 423. Since the positioning member 410 is at least partially axially retractable, when the ink receiving tray 100 is reset to be close to the first position, the positioning member 410 can be first shortened in the axial direction, and when the ink receiving tray 100 reaches the first position, the positioning member 410 is released to be elongated in the axial direction and inserted into the positioning hole 423, so as to limit the ink receiving tray 100 in the first position. When it is needed to push the ink receiving tray 100 from the first position to the second position, the positioning member 410 only needs to be shortened in the axial direction to be separated from the positioning hole 423.

[0058] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 10 , the limiting structure 400 further includes a limiting sheet 420. The limiting sheet 420 includes a first limiting section 421 and a second limiting section 422. The first limiting section 421 is connected with the base 300 and extends along the sliding direction of the ink receiving tray 100. The positioning hole 423 is formed in the first limiting section 421. The second limiting section 422 extends upwardly and away from the first limiting section 421.

[0059] The second limiting section 422 extends upwardly and away from the first limiting section 421, that is, the height of the second limiting section 422 gradually decreases from one end away from the first limiting section 421 to the first limiting section 421.

[0060] The second limiting section 422 is arranged so that when the ink receiving tray 100 slides from the second position to the first position, the end of the positioning member 410 first contacts the second limiting section 422, the second limiting section 422 gradually guides the positioning member 410 to the first limiting section 421, and the second limiting section 422 gradually reduces the axial height of the positioning member 410, that is, gradually shortens the positioning member 410 in the axial direction, so that the positioning member 410 can easily slide to the first limiting section 421 and be clamped in the positioning hole 423. In addition, when it is necessary to slide the ink receiving tray 100 from the first position to the second position, the positioning member 410 is compressed so that the positioning member 410 can be separated from the positioning hole 423 to achieve the sliding of the ink receiving tray 100.

[0061] Optionally, referring to Figure 10 , the positioning member 410 includes an elastic needle which can be extended and retracted in the axial direction and has a simple structure. In other embodiments, the positioning member 410 can also include a glass bead screw, or a spring and a thimble can be arranged in the positioning member 410, and the extension and retraction of the thimble are achieved by the spring, which is not limited herein.

[0062] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , a guide rail assembly 500 is connected between the base 300 and the ink receiving tray 100, and the guide rail assembly 500 is used to guide the sliding of the base 300. The arrangement of the guide rail assembly 500 can guide the sliding of the ink receiving tray 100, ensure that the ink receiving tray 100 can slide along a straight line, and ensure that the ink receiving tray 100 slides stably.

[0063] In some specific embodiments, referring to Figure 11 , the guide rail assembly 500 includes a first guide rail 510 and a second guide rail 520, the first guide rail 510 is mounted to the ink receiving tray 100, the second guide rail 520 is mounted to the base 300, and the first guide rail 510 and the second guide rail 520 are slidingly matched to guide the sliding of the ink receiving tray 100.

[0064] Specifically, referring to Figure 11The first guide rail 510 comprises a first mounting plate 511 and first side plates 512 connected to the upper and lower sides of the first mounting plate 511, and the first mounting plate 511 is arranged on the outer side wall of the ink receiving tray 100 and is locked to the ink receiving tray 100 by fasteners. The second guide rail 520 comprises a second mounting plate 521 and second side plates 522 connected to the upper and lower sides of the second mounting plate 521, and the second mounting plate 521 is arranged on the outer side wall of the base 300 and is locked to the base 300 by fasteners. The first guide rail 510 is inserted into the second guide rail 520, specifically, the two first side plates 512 are respectively in sliding fit with the two second side plates 522, and the two first side plates 512 are arranged between the two second side plates 522. In this way, the sliding guide of the ink receiving tray 100 is realized by the sliding fit of the two first side plates 512 and the two second side plates 522.

[0065] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 The ink receiving tray 100 can slide in the second direction Y, and the ink receiving tray 100 and the base 300 are both provided with guide rail assemblies 500 on the opposite outer sides in the first direction X. The sliding stability of the ink receiving tray 100 can be ensured by the arrangement of the two guide rail assemblies 500.

[0066] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 8 The top of the base 300 has a window 320 communicating with the receiving cavity 310, and when the ink receiving tray 100 is in the first position, the flow guide structure 200 is arranged opposite the window 320, so that the flow guide structure 200 can receive ink.

[0067] In some embodiments, the flow guide structure 200 is detachably connected with the ink receiving tray 100, and the flow guide structure 200 is arranged in the base 300 together with the ink receiving tray 100. In other words, when the ink receiving tray 100 slides from the first position to the second position, the flow guide structure 200 slides to the second position together with the ink receiving tray 100, and when the ink receiving tray 100 needs to be cleaned, the flow guide structure 200 only needs to be detached from the ink receiving tray 100, which is simple to operate. It can be understood that in other embodiments of the present application, the flow guide structure 200 can also be arranged on part of the top opening of the ink receiving tray 100, and the position of the ink receiving tray 100 corresponding to the waste outlet 120 is covered by the base 300, so that the flow guide structure 200 does not need to be detached, and the position of the ink receiving tray 100 corresponding to the waste outlet 120 can be cleaned, which is simple to operate. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the flow guide structure 200 can be mounted on the base 300, and the ink receiving tray 100 can be pulled out separately for cleaning.

[0068] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 4The bottom of the ink receiving tray 100 is provided with a guide wall 140, which is inclined to guide the ink at the higher position of the bottom of the ink receiving tray 100 to the waste outlet 120 at the lower position, so as to facilitate the cleaning of the waste outlet 120.
