[0018] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention are given for illustrative and descriptive purposes only, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the present invention to the disclosed forms. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The embodiments were chosen and described to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of the present invention, and to enable those skilled in the art to understand the present invention and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for a particular purpose.
[0019] Please see Figures 1-6This embodiment provides an automatic photo printing and cutting device, including a housing 1 and a photo printer 2. The photo printer 2 is arranged inside the housing 1, and a photo cutting module 12 is arranged in front of the photo printer 2. A top cover 11 is installed on the upper end face of the housing 1, and a rear door 13 is rotatably installed on the rear end face of the housing 1 via a pin. A photo outlet 14 is opened on the front end face of the housing 1, and a tray 15 is arranged below the photo outlet 14. During operation, after the photo printer 2 finishes printing, the photo is automatically cut by the photo cutting module 12, which improves the convenience of using the device and avoids the risk of scratches caused by manual cutting.
[0020] A motherboard 16 is installed on the right side of the housing 1, a switching power supply 17 is installed on the left side of the housing 1, and a switch panel 18 is installed on the rear side of the housing 1. When working, the motherboard 16 is an Android or Windows structure, the switching power supply 17 powers the motherboard 16 and the photo cutting module 12, and the switch panel 18 controls the total power supply.
[0021] The photo cutting module 12 includes a connecting photo drive wheel 19, a connecting photo port 21 is arranged to the right of the connecting photo drive wheel 19, a connecting photo motor 22 is arranged below the connecting photo drive wheel 19, and a synchronous wheel 23 is arranged to the left of the connecting photo drive wheel 19. A synchronous belt 24 is installed on the outer wall of the synchronous wheel 23. During operation, the photo printer 2 slides to the connection port with the cutting module. The user can select the photo module through the touch screen and scan the photo with a mobile phone to print it on the device. Through calculation, the photo cutting module 12 transports the photo to the cutting plane.
[0022] A longitudinal motion motor 25 is arranged in front of the connecting photo drive wheel 19. An edge-finding camera 26 is arranged on the inner end of the longitudinal motion motor 25, and a cutter 27 is arranged on the inner end of the edge-finding camera 26. During operation, the longitudinal conveyor is precisely positioned by the photo position sensor and the linear velocity of the photo movement, and the lateral conveyor drives the cutter 27 and the edge-finding camera 26 mechanism to obtain the position of the longitudinal edge of the photo through the camera.
[0023] A cutting transverse motor 28 is arranged to the right of the longitudinal motion motor 25. An initial positioning sensor 29 is arranged above the cutting transverse motor 28. A left position sensor 291 is arranged to the left of the cutter 27. An electromagnet 292 is arranged to the left of the cutter 27. During operation, the cutter driven by the transverse mechanism can adjust the depth of the cutter head through the fixing nut to meet the requirements of cutting the photo. This ensures that the photo with adhesive backing is cut only the photo itself without cutting through the bottom. The cutter is positioned vertically by the extension and retraction of the electromagnet 292. With the cooperation of the transverse and longitudinal motors, the photo is cut according to the lines on the template.
