Detailed Implementation

[0034] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention. Example 1

[0035] like Figure 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides a detachable and modular consumable tray, comprising: a paper ring 1, a first modular ring portion 2 and a second modular ring portion 3 inserted at the left and right ends of the paper ring 1, and two tray body portions 4 integrally connected to the ends of the first modular ring portion 2 and the second modular ring portion 3, wherein...

[0036] The first combined ring 2 and the second combined ring 3 can be rotated and engaged when the paper ring 1 approaches each other, so that the two disc bodies 4, the first combined ring 2, the second combined ring 3, and the paper ring 1 are combined to form a consumable tray. Specifically, in the prior art, the consumable tray is integrally formed, which cannot be effectively disassembled and assembled, and cannot separate the authorized consumables from it. Compared with the prior art, this technology is provided with two detachable parts, the first combined ring 2 and the second combined ring 3, which can be disassembled and assembled in a timely manner to complete the original consumable tray assembly. The device improves the timeliness of reusing consumables by separating the old consumables from the new ones and winding them back together. It allows for flexible operation according to needs. The device also includes a paper ring 1, which is located between the first combined ring 2 and the second combined ring 3. The paper ring 1 has friction and is made of a soft material. It covers the gap between the first combined ring 2 and the second combined ring 3, preventing consumables from getting stuck in the gap. This makes the attachment and authorization of consumables better. In this state, the consumables tray has the same stable winding function as in the prior art, but with a wider range of functions.

[0037] Optionally, the first combined ring portion 2 includes an outer stepped ring 21 disposed on one of the disc portions 4, a plurality of first reinforcing pieces 22 circumferentially disposed on the inner wall of the outer stepped ring 21 and connected to one of the disc portions 4, and a first support tube 23 disposed on the inner side of the plurality of first reinforcing pieces 22 and connected to one of the disc portions 4. Specifically, the outer stepped ring 21 forms a reinforced assembly with the plurality of first reinforcing pieces 22 and the first support tube 23, so that the outer stepped ring 21 has better stability during the assembly process and will not easily break or deform under stress.

[0038] Optionally, the first combined ring portion 2 further includes a plurality of grooves 24 circumferentially disposed on the outer side of the front section of the outer stepped ring 21, and a plurality of slots 25 circumferentially disposed at the end of the front section of the outer stepped ring 21 and penetrating the plurality of grooves 24. The slots 25 may be tapered holes.

[0039] Specifically, the outer edge of the front end of the outer stepped ring 21 can be arc-shaped. The groove 24 and the hole 25 allow the assembly process of the outer stepped ring 21 to have two directions and be carried out in sequence, providing good preparation conditions for the assembly work. The shape setting of the outer edge of the outer stepped ring 21 makes its radial insertion assembly operation more convenient.

[0040] Optionally, the first combined ring portion 2 further includes a plurality of first snap-fit ​​blocks 26 arranged circumferentially on a plurality of the grooves 24;

[0041] One end of the first snap-fit ​​block 26 is arc-shaped and the first snap-fit ​​block 26 is elastic. Specifically, the first snap-fit ​​block 26 provides a positioning function for the combination position of the first snap-fit ​​block 26 and the second combined ring 3 in the groove 24.

[0042] Optionally, the paper ring 1 has two notches 5 on its left and right sides, and the notches 5 are isosceles trapezoids;

[0043] Two protrusions 6 are provided at the junction of the disc body 4 and the outer step ring 21. The rear half of the protrusion 6 is an isosceles trapezoid, and the front half of the protrusion 6 is an arc.

[0044] The two notches 5 correspond one-to-one with the two protrusions 6, wherein,

[0045] When the outer stepped ring 21 is inserted into the paper ring 1, the protrusion 6 can be inserted into the notch 5. Specifically, this is the first step in the consumable tray assembly process. First, the paper ring 1 is put into the outer stepped ring 21 so that the notch 5 and the protrusion 6 form a locking and positioning effect. The paper ring 1 will not be able to rotate outside the outer stepped ring 21, which facilitates the winding of consumables. The shape of the protrusion 6 and the notch 5 can reduce the frictional resistance when the protrusion 6 and the notch 5 are locked together, so that the locking process has a guiding effect and gradually locks together.

[0046] Optionally, the second combined ring portion 3 includes an inner stepped ring 31 disposed in another disc portion 4, a plurality of second reinforcing pieces 32 circumferentially disposed on the inner wall of the outer stepped ring 21 and connected to the other disc portion 4, a second support tube 33 disposed on the inner side of the plurality of second reinforcing pieces 32 and connected to one of the disc portions 4, and two grooves 34 disposed on the inner stepped ring 31.

[0047] The two grooves 34 correspond one-to-one with the two notches 5. Specifically, the inner step ring 31 forms another reinforced assembly with several second reinforcing plates 32 and second support tubes 33 to enhance its resistance to deformation and damage. This is the second step in the consumable tray assembly process. The assembly angle of the inner step ring 31 and the outer step ring 21 will be blocked by the paper ring 1. The opposing assembly process of the inner step ring 31 and the outer step ring 21 is carried out by the angle of the notch 5 and the groove 34 in the coaxial state.

[0048] Optionally, the second combined ring portion 3 further includes a plurality of second engaging blocks 35 arranged circumferentially on the front section of the inner side of the inner stepped ring 31, wherein,

[0049] After the second locking blocks 35 can be inserted into the holes 25, and the second locking blocks 35 can be rotated to engage with the slots 24, this is the third step in the consumable tray assembly process. After the above operation, the second locking blocks 35 can pass through the holes 25 to reach the slots 24, and rotate to reach the end of the slots 24. After friction pushes the first locking block 26 to deform and reset, the first locking block 26 and the slots 24 form a size that the second locking blocks 35 cannot pass through, so as to ensure the firmness of the consumable tray assembly. Example 2

[0050] like Figure 6-7 As shown, the second latching block 35 has a latching groove 7 at one center, and the latching groove 7 is elastic.

[0051] After the second locking block 35 engages with the groove 24, the groove 7 engages with the first locking block 26. Specifically, the side wall of the second locking block 35 is partially or entirely arc-shaped. During the process of the second locking block 35 rotating to the end of the groove 24, the first locking block 26 and the second locking block 35 are compressed and deformed and reset, and then engage with each other, which increases the angle and direction of the engagement force. At this time, the engagement angle between the inner step ring 31 and the outer step ring 21 is locked and cannot be broken without strong force, which helps to improve the integrity of the consumable trolley winding operation. The assembly of the consumable trolley is completed.

[0052] Optionally, the disc body 4 includes a disc 41, a plurality of vent holes 42 provided on the disc 41, a plurality of marking lines 43 provided on the disc 41, and a line end positioning hole 44 provided on the disc 41.

[0053] The disc 41 is elastic. Specifically, the ventilation holes 42 include, but are not limited to, square, circular, triangular and polygonal shapes. They can reduce the weight of the disc 41, reduce material consumption, and increase the ventilation effect of the consumables. Together with several marking lines 43, they can promptly indicate the amount of consumables used. The thread end positioning hole 44 is used for temporary insertion and fixing of the thread end when the consumables are idle, which is conducive to thread management.

[0054] Optionally, the disc body 4 further includes an annular groove 45 disposed on the side end of the disc 41, a metal ring 46 disposed outside the annular groove 45, a threaded hole 47 passing through the annular groove 45 and the metal ring 46, and a threaded post 48 inserted into the threaded hole 47. Specifically, the annular groove 45 is used to assemble the metal ring 46, preventing the metal ring 46 from easily detaching from the annular groove 45. The metal ring 46 can increase the rigidity of the disc 41, making the disc 41 less prone to breakage at the edge. The threaded post 48, after passing through the threaded hole 47, can increase the axial rigidity of the disc 41, making the surface of the disc 41 less prone to excessive bending deformation and damage. The threaded post 48 can also act as a handle. When it is detached from the disc 41 but maintains the connection with the metal ring 46, it facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the metal ring 46 in the annular groove 45.

[0055] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
