Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toner cartridge protection technology, specifically a toner cartridge with a protective structure. Background Technology

[0002] In modern office equipment, toner cartridges are core consumables for devices such as laser printers and copiers, and their performance stability directly affects print quality and equipment operating efficiency.

[0003] However, traditional toner cartridges have a relatively simple structure and lack effective protective measures. During transportation and storage, toner cartridges may be subjected to external forces such as collisions and compression, which can easily lead to deformation and damage, resulting in toner leakage. Moreover, traditional toner cartridges have significant shortcomings in terms of moisture protection during transportation and storage. The toner filling port of the toner cartridge usually relies on a sealing cap for sealing, but during transportation or handling, the sealing cap is prone to loosening or falling off due to vibration, causing toner to leak from the filling port. This not only contaminates the storage environment but may also affect the sealing performance of the cartridge due to toner scattering.

[0004] Questions should be phrased tactfully, avoiding absolute statements. To address this, we offer toner cartridges with a protective structure. Utility Model Content

[0005] Technical problem solved: This utility model proposes a toner cartridge with a protective structure. Through the cooperation between the protective sleeve, support plate, base plate and annular rubber band, it solves the problem that traditional toner cartridges lack effective protective measures and are prone to deformation and damage. Through the cooperation between the dehumidifying bag, rubber block and annular rubber band, it solves the problem that the sealing cap inside the toner filling port of traditional toner cartridges may loosen or fall off due to vibration.

[0006] Technical solution: To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a toner cartridge with a protective structure, comprising a toner cartridge body, a storage box provided at the outer end of the toner cartridge body, a protective sleeve provided inside the storage box, and the protective sleeve being fitted onto both sides of the toner cartridge body;

[0007] The protective sleeve is connected to a support plate on its side. The support plate is located on the upper and lower sides of the toner cartridge body. A connecting block is connected to the upper end of the upper support plate.

[0008] The connecting block has a groove, and the two connecting blocks are fitted with annular rubber bands at their outer ends, with both ends of the annular rubber bands located in the grooves of the connecting blocks.

[0009] The lower end of the protective sleeve is connected to a base plate, and the lower end of the base plate has an anti-slip texture groove.

[0010] Furthermore, the protective sleeve has an anti-collision protrusion connected to its side end, and the anti-collision protrusion is located at the grip plate end of the toner cartridge body.

[0011] Furthermore, the protective sleeve, support plate, connecting block, base plate, and anti-collision protrusion are made of foam and are molded together as a single unit.

[0012] Furthermore, a dehumidifying bag is placed inside the storage box, and a dehumidifying agent is stored inside the dehumidifying bag.

[0013] Furthermore, a filler block is placed inside the storage box, and the filler block is filled between the protective sleeve and the storage box. The filler block is also made of foam.

[0014] Furthermore, a rubber block is connected to the inner wall of the protective sleeve. The rubber block is made of elastic rubber and is located at the toner filling port of the toner cartridge body.

[0015] Furthermore, a protective frame is snapped between the protective sleeves, and the protective frame is fitted onto the outer end of the toner roller on the side of the toner cartridge body. The protective frame is also made of foam.

[0016] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, this toner cartridge with a protective structure has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] I. This toner cartridge with a protective structure protects both ends of the cartridge by providing protective sleeves on both sides. Support plates and a base plate protect the top and bottom of the cartridge, effectively resisting collisions and friction from the sides and top / bottom during handling and storage. Connecting blocks and elastic bands are included; the elastic bands pull the connecting blocks, ensuring the two protective sleeves fit tightly against both sides of the cartridge, preventing loosening or detachment due to vibration or movement. This enhances the connection stability of the protective sleeves. The device improves the protective performance of the toner cartridge, effectively reducing damage to the cartridge body from collisions and compression during transportation, storage, and use, and lowering the risk of toner leakage due to shell breakage.

[0018] Second, this toner cartridge with a protective structure incorporates a dehumidifying bag inside the storage box, which absorbs moisture and reduces the humidity of the storage space. This effectively reduces the risk of moisture accidentally entering the toner cartridge and damaging the toner inside. Furthermore, an elastic rubber block inside the protective sleeve seals the toner filling port of the toner cartridge, effectively preventing the sealing cap from accidentally detaching during transportation, handling, or storage, thus avoiding toner leakage, spillage, and contamination of the toner cartridge. The moisture-proof function of the dehumidifying bag and the sealing effect of the elastic rubber block form a "synergistic" protection system: external dehumidification controls ambient humidity, while internal sealing reduces contact between the toner and humid air. This dual protection extends the shelf life of the toner, maintaining its good physical and chemical state even during long-term storage. Attached Figure Description

[0026] 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.

[0027] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a toner cartridge with a protective structure, including a toner cartridge body 1, a storage box 2 provided at the outer end of the toner cartridge body 1, the toner cartridge body 1 being placed inside the storage box 2, a protective sleeve 3 being provided inside the storage box 2, and a filling block 10 being placed inside the storage box 2, the filling block 10 filling between the protective sleeve 3 and the storage box 2, thereby preventing the protective sleeve 3 and the toner cartridge body 1 from shaking inside the storage box 2.

[0028] The lower end of the protective sleeve 3 is connected to the base plate 7. The lower end of the base plate 7 has an anti-slip texture groove, which can increase friction and improve stability. The side end of the protective sleeve 3 is connected to the anti-collision protrusion 8. The anti-collision protrusion 8 is located at the grip plate end of the toner cartridge body 1, which is used to prevent the grip plate from being affected when the storage box 2 is collided.

[0029] The protective sleeve 3 is fitted onto both sides of the toner cartridge body 1 to protect both ends of the cartridge. The protective sleeve 3 is connected to the support plate 4 on the side. The support plate 4 is located on the upper and lower sides of the toner cartridge body 1 to protect the upper and lower ends of the cartridge. The upper end of the support plate 4 is connected to the connecting block 5. The connecting block 5 has a groove. The outer ends of the two connecting blocks 5 are fitted with annular rubber bands 6. The two ends of the annular rubber bands 6 are located in the grooves of the connecting blocks 5 to prevent the annular rubber bands 6 from falling out of the connecting blocks 5. The protective sleeve 3, support plate 4, connecting block 5, bottom plate 7, and anti-collision protrusions 8 are made of foam, which has a cushioning and protective function. They are made into one piece using a mold to ensure the overall structural strength. The protective sleeve 3 is clamped between the protective sleeves. The protective frame 12 is fitted onto the outer end of the toner roller on the side of the toner cartridge body 1. The protective frame 12 is also made of foam to wrap the toner roller and prevent it from being damaged by accidental collision.

[0030] A dehumidifying bag 9 is placed inside the storage box 2. The dehumidifying bag 9 contains a desiccant, which is used to absorb moisture inside the storage box 2.
