Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a cover cutting mechanism of regenerative ink cartridge. BACKGROUND
[0002] The ink cartridge belongs to consumable products and is an important component of the printer. At present, there are enterprises on the market that specialize in recycling ink cartridges and then disassembling, cleaning, modifying, and renovating the ink cartridges. The renovated ink cartridges can be normally used and are low in price, so they are deeply pursued by people. The renovated ink cartridges are usually called regenerative ink cartridges. In the process of ink cartridge renovation, the cover of the ink cartridge is usually difficult to disassemble because the manufacturer of the ink cartridge wants to protect the product and avoid the ink cartridge from being easily disassembled. In order to improve the production efficiency of the regenerative ink cartridges, most ink cartridge renovation manufacturers will choose to cut off the cover of the ink cartridge directly, and then stick a new cover on it for use. However, the cutting of the ink cartridge is currently operated manually, which cannot guarantee the structural regularity of the ink cartridge after cutting and has the shortcomings of slow cutting efficiency.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to make further improvements. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

An adjusting assembly for adjusting the height of the pressing plate is arranged on the ink cartridge channel. The cover cutting assembly comprises a motor and a blade. The blade is arranged inside the ink cartridge channel and close to the bottom of the ink cartridge channel. The rotating shaft of the motor is connected with the blade to drive the rotation of the blade.
[0006] In one or more embodiments, the ink cartridge channel is provided with the adjusting assembly at both ends of the pressing plate. The adjusting assembly comprises a bracket, a screw rod, an upper nut, and a lower nut. The bracket has a hole position through which the screw rod passes. The upper nut and the lower nut are screwed with the screw rod, and the upper nut and the lower nut are respectively arranged at the upper end and the lower end of the hole position. The bottom end of the screw rod is connected with the pressing plate.
[0007] In one or more embodiments, the pressing plate comprises a structural plate body and a rubber pad layer bonded to the bottom surface of the structural plate body.
[0008] In one or more embodiments, the output end of the ink cartridge channel is provided with a first material guide plate. The upper end surface of the first material guide plate is flush with the upper end surface of the blade. The lower end surface of the first material guide plate is higher than the lower end surface of the blade.
[0009] In one or more embodiments, the output end of the ink cartridge channel is provided with a second guide plate, the second guide plate is located below the first guide plate, the second guide plate is inclined downward, and the upper surface of the second guide plate is lower than the bottom surface of the ink cartridge channel.
[0010] In one or more embodiments, the motor is located at the bottom of the ink cartridge channel, and the motor is fixed to the bottom of the ink cartridge channel by a mounting bracket.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this invention are: ink cartridges are sequentially transported through the ink cartridge channel, and the caps can be cut out by the blade, resulting in high cutting efficiency. Furthermore, a pressure plate is used to limit the ink cartridges during transport, preventing them from tilting and ensuring accurate blade cutting. Attached Figure Description

[0013] Figure 2 for Figure 1 A magnified view of A in the middle. Detailed Implementation
[0014] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0015] See appendix Figures 1-2 This application provides a capping mechanism for regenerated ink cartridges, which includes an ink cartridge channel 1, a pressure plate 2, and a capping assembly 3. The pressure plate is disposed in the ink cartridge channel and is used to hold the ink cartridge, which can prevent the ink cartridge from tilting up during transportation and capping. The pressure plate 2 can move up and down relative to the ink cartridge channel 1. The ink cartridge channel is provided with an adjustment assembly that can adjust the height of the pressure plate. The height of the pressure plate can be adjusted by adjusting the assembly so as to adjust the height of the pressure plate according to the height of different ink cartridges. The capping assembly includes a motor 4 and a blade 5. The blade is located inside the ink cartridge channel 1 and is disposed near the bottom of the ink cartridge channel. The blade is preferably disposed near the output end of the ink cartridge channel. The rotating shaft of the motor 4 is connected to the blade 5 to drive it to rotate.
[0016] The ink cartridge channel 1 is equipped with adjustment components at both ends of the pressure plate. The adjustment components include a bracket 6, a screw 7, an upper nut 8, and a lower nut 9. The bracket has holes for the screw to pass through. The upper nut 8 and the lower nut 9 are screwed to the screw, and the upper nut and the lower nut are located at the upper and lower ends of the holes, respectively. The bottom end of the screw is connected to the pressure plate 2. When adjusting the height of the pressure plate, the height of the base plate is fixed by tightening the upper nut and the lower nut.
[0017] The pressing plate 2 comprises a structural plate body 21 and a rubber pad layer 22 adhered to the bottom surface of the structural plate body. The rubber pad layer can avoid scratching the ink cartridge.
[0018] The output end of the ink cartridge channel 1 is provided with a first material guide plate 10.
