Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of office supplies technology, and specifically relates to a floating touch switch stapler. Background Technology
[0002] A stapler is a tool used for binding paper, cardboard, etc., and is widely used in offices, factories, and homes. Currently, staplers have evolved from traditional manual pressing to automatic binding.
[0003] For example, Chinese utility model patent CN204772393U, entitled "A Pneumatic Binding Machine," discloses a pneumatic binding machine, including a worktable, at least one binding unit disposed on the worktable, and a controller for controlling the operation of the binding unit. The worktable has mounting slots for mounting the binding units, and each binding unit has a connecting part that mates with the mounting slot. Each binding unit includes a housing, a stapler, and a cylinder for driving the stapler to perform binding actions. The cylinder is connected to the controller. The stapler includes a base, a staple box hinged to the base, and a pressure box. The piston rod of the cylinder is positioned corresponding to the pressure box. Both the cylinder and the base are fixedly connected to the housing, and the base extends out of the housing and corresponds to the mounting slot. A microswitch is provided on the side of the base, and the microswitch is electrically connected to the controller.
[0004] When using the stapler described in this patent, because the microswitch (or micro-control switch, touch switch) is located on the outside of the stapler, the user needs to push the item to be stapled inwards towards the microswitch to make it touch the microswitch in order to achieve automatic stapled. This operation can easily cause the item to be stapled to tilt towards the side of the force applied, resulting in misalignment. In addition, the microswitch of this stapler is fixed on the base, making it difficult to adjust the position of the microswitch when the size of the item to be stapled is different. Therefore, it is difficult to adapt to items of different sizes, thus affecting the stapled quality and stapled efficiency.
[0005] In view of this, the applicant conducted in-depth research on the above-mentioned issues, which led to the occurrence of this case. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a floating touch switch stapler that can effectively prevent misalignment during stapleping and can adapt to items of different sizes to be stapled.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] A floating touch switch stapler includes a base, a staple box and a pressure box hinged to the base, a staple pressing plate inside the pressure box, and a folding foot plate on the base below the staple pressing plate. The base includes a support plate for mounting the folding foot plate, a groove in the middle of the support plate, and a hollow structure below the support plate. A touch switch assembly is movably mounted on the groove. The touch switch assembly includes a mounting plate for mounting the touch switch and a limiting component for pressing or releasing the mounting plate on the support plate. An elastic reset component is provided below the mounting plate for the touch switch assembly to reset after being pressed down.
[0009] Furthermore, the limiting component includes a rotating shaft, on which a base plate, a pressing plate, a fixing plate, and a lever are sequentially fitted from bottom to top. The pressing plate is located at the bottom of the support plate, and the fixing plate is located at the top of the support plate. The top of the fixing plate is provided with two protrusions corresponding to the rotation path of the lever. The mounting plate is fitted on the rotating shaft and located between the base plate and the pressing plate.
[0010] Furthermore, the two protrusions are evenly spaced apart with respect to the pivot axis.
[0011] Furthermore, the bottom plate is provided with a connecting shaft at the end away from the rotating shaft, and the mounting plate passes through the connecting shaft.
[0012] Furthermore, the elastic reset member includes a first spring sleeved on the rotating shaft between the mounting plate and the base plate, and a second spring sleeved on the connecting shaft between the mounting plate and the base plate, the second spring being the same size as the first spring.
[0013] Furthermore, a vertical plate is integrally provided on the side of the pressing plate near the paddle, and the position of the vertical plate corresponds to the position of the gap between the pressing box and the nail box. The vertical plate is provided with a limiting groove for the paddle to pass through at the position of the paddle.
[0014] Furthermore, the base plate, the mounting plate, and the clamping plate are all provided with through slots at the positions corresponding to the touch switch, allowing the touch switch to pass through.
[0015] By adopting the aforementioned design scheme, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] This invention, by setting a limiting component, allows the position of the touch switch to be adjusted according to the size of the item to be bound. After adjustment, the position of the touch switch is fixed by the limiting component. This design can accommodate items of different sizes to be bound. Furthermore, the touch switch is set in the groove in the middle of the bottom through a mounting plate. Compared with the prior art, during binding, the item to be bound only needs to touch the touch switch in the middle of the stapler to complete the binding, which can effectively avoid binding misalignment and improve binding quality and efficiency.
[0017] Furthermore, the mounting plate and the base plate are connected by a pivot and a connecting shaft, and a first spring and a second spring are respectively installed on the pivot and the connecting shaft. This allows the pressure box to drive the staple box to press down for binding. When the touch switch and the mounting plate are pressed down, the downward force can be evenly offset by the first spring and the second spring, making it less likely for the touch switch to shift position and improving the binding quality.

[0034] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0035] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a floating touch switch stapler is described. It should be noted that this invention is an improvement upon the existing stapler structure in the field, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the structure of this type of stapler typically includes: a base 100, a staple box 101 hinged to the base 100, and a pressure box 102. The pressure box 102 is provided with a staple pressing piece 103. A staple opening for binding is formed between the pressure box 102 and the base 100. A folding foot plate 104 is provided on the base 100 below the staple pressing piece 103. By applying pressure to the pressure box 102, the staples in the staple box 101 penetrate the paper, thereby achieving the binding effect.
[0036] In this invention, the base 100 includes a support plate 105. A bend plate 104 is provided at one end of the support plate 105 near the binding opening. A groove 106 is formed in the middle of the support plate 105. The lower part of the support plate 105 is hollow. The groove 106 extends from the bend plate 104 towards the hinge between the pressure box 102 and the base 100. A touch switch assembly 1 is movably mounted on the groove 106. The touch switch assembly 1 includes a touch switch 10, a mounting plate 11 for mounting the touch switch 10, and a limiting component 2 for pressing the mounting plate 11 against the support plate 105 or releasing it from the support plate 105. An elastic reset component 3 is also provided below the mounting plate 11. The touch switch 10 is disposed within the groove 106. Correspondingly, a receiving device for the touch switch 10 is provided on the stapler. The controller for the touch signal (not shown in the figure) and the drive mechanism (not shown in the figure) for controlling the pressing box 102 to press down to achieve the binding action can both adopt conventional structures in the art, such as the structures mentioned in the background art, which will not be described in detail here. Correspondingly, the height of the touch switch 10 is slightly higher than the height of the corner plate 104, so that when the item to be bound is placed on the corner plate 104 and pushed inward, it can contact the touch switch 10, thereby enabling the stapler to complete the binding action. Since the pressing box 102 will press down the staple box 101 to complete the binding action, it will simultaneously squeeze the touch switch 10 and the mounting plate 11 downward. The elastic reset member 3 can reset the mounting plate 11 and the touch switch 10 after the pressing box 102 drives the staple box 101 to press down to complete the binding action.
[0037] Preferably, the limiting component 2 of this utility model includes a rotating shaft 21. From bottom to top, the rotating shaft 21 is fitted with a base plate 22, a pressing plate 23, a fixing plate 24, and a lever 25. The pressing plate 23 is located at the bottom of the support plate 105 (there is a certain gap between the pressing plate 23 and the support plate 105). The fixing plate 24 is located at the top of the support plate 105. Two protrusions 26 are provided on the top of the fixing plate 24 corresponding to the rotation path of the lever 25. One end of the lever 25 is horizontally mounted on the rotating shaft 21, and the other end extends outward to form a handle. The two protrusions 26 on the top of the fixing plate 24... Both protrusions 26 are located on the rotation path of the lever 25. Preferably, the two protrusions 26 are evenly spaced around the pivot 21 (when the touch switch assembly 1 is not fixed to the carrier plate 105, the two protrusions 26 are located on both sides of the lever 25, and the lever 25 does not press against the two protrusions 26). After the touch switch assembly 1 is fixed to the carrier plate 105 by the limiting assembly 2, the items to be bound can be bound. It should be noted that the limiting assembly 2 of this utility model is not limited to the above structure, and other conventional structures in the field can also be used, as long as the above effect can be achieved.
[0038] Mounting plate 11 is sleeved on rotating shaft 21 and located between base plate 22 and clamping plate 23. Base plate 22, clamping plate 23, fixing plate 24, mounting plate 11 and lever 25 are all horizontally arranged. Correspondingly, the base plate 22, mounting plate 11 and fixing plate 24 have through slots for the touch switch 10 to pass through at the positions corresponding to the touch switch 10. The touch switch 10 is fixed on mounting plate 11 by L-shaped plate. Preferably, the end of base plate 22 away from rotating shaft 21 is also provided with connecting shaft 27. One end of mounting plate 11 passes through rotating shaft 21 and the other end passes through connecting shaft 27. Preferably, in this embodiment, elastic reset member 3 includes a sleeved on mounting plate 11 and base plate 23. A first spring 31 is mounted on the pivot 21 between the mounting plate 11 and the base plate 22, and a second spring 32 is sleeved on the connecting shaft 27 between the mounting plate 11 and the base plate 22. Preferably, the second spring 32 is the same size as the first spring 31. The mounting plate 11 and the base plate 22 are connected by the pivot 21 and the connecting shaft 27, and the first spring 31 and the second spring 32 are respectively provided on the pivot 21 and the connecting shaft 27, so that the pressure box 102 drives the staple box 101 to press down for binding. When the touch switch 10 and the mounting plate 11 are pressed down, the downward force can be evenly offset by the first spring 31 and the second spring 32, so that the touch switch 10 is not easy to deviate from its position and the binding quality is improved.
[0039] When the touch switch assembly 1 is not fixed to the carrier plate 105, the two protrusions 26 are located on both sides of the lever 25. When the lever 25 is not pressing against the two protrusions 26, the fixing plate 24 rests against the carrier plate 105 below due to its own weight. There is still a certain gap between the pressing plate 23 and the carrier plate 105 (the height of the gap is less than or equal to the height of the protrusions 26). The touch switch assembly 1 can move along the slide 106 and freely adjust its position. When it is necessary to fix the position of the touch switch assembly 1, the lever 25 is rotated by the handle end of the lever 25. The paddle 25 is rotated to the top of the two protrusions 26, which lift the paddle 25. The two protrusions 26 are located at the bottom of the paddle 25. At the same time, the paddle 25 being lifted will drive the pressure plate 23 to move upward through the rotating shaft 21, thereby eliminating the gap between the pressure plate 23 and the support plate 105. The pressure plate 23 presses the support plate 105 tightly, thereby fixing the touch switch assembly 1. When the position of the touch switch assembly 1 needs to be adjusted, the handle end of the paddle 25 is rotated to make the paddle 25 move away from the protrusions 26, thereby releasing the pressure plate 23 from the support plate 105.
[0040] By setting the limiting component 2, the position of the touch switch 10 can be adjusted according to the size of the item to be bound. After adjustment, the position of the touch switch 10 is fixed by the limiting component 2. This setting can accommodate items of different sizes to be bound. The touch switch 10 is set in the slide groove 106 in the middle of the base 100 through the mounting plate 11. Compared with the prior art, when binding, you only need to apply force to the middle of the stapler so that the item to be bound touches the touch switch 10 in the middle of the stapler to complete the binding. This can effectively avoid binding misalignment and improve binding quality and binding efficiency.
[0041] In use, the item to be bound is inserted into the binding opening and pushed to contact the touch switch 10, so that the drive mechanism applies pressure to the pressure box 102, causing the staples in the staple box 101 to penetrate the paper and achieve the binding effect. Since the pressure box 102 pushes the staple box 101 down to complete the binding action, it will simultaneously squeeze the touch switch 10 and the mounting plate 11 downwards. The first spring 31 and the second spring 32 are set so that after the pressure box 102 pushes the staple box 101 down to complete the binding action, the mounting plate 11 and the touch switch 10 will automatically reset and be ready for the next binding.
[0042] Preferably, a vertical plate 241 is integrally provided on the side of the fixing plate 24 near the paddle 25. The position of the vertical plate 241 corresponds to the position of the gap between the pressure box 102 and the nail box 101, so as to prevent the pressure box 102 from being blocked by the vertical plate 241 when it is pressed down for binding. The vertical plate 241 is provided with a limiting groove 242 for the paddle 25 to pass through at the position corresponding to the paddle 25. By setting the limiting groove 242, the rotation distance of the paddle 25 is limited, so as to prevent the paddle 25 from rotating too far and affecting the fixing effect.
[0043] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
