AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

When using cards with insufficient stiffness, existing card printers have difficulty effectively separating the transfer film from the card, causing the front of the card to be conveyed along with the transfer film, resulting in printer malfunctions.

Method used

A peeling mechanism is installed inside the printer chassis, including a freely rotatable peeling roller. The upper end of the peeling roller is spaced apart from the transfer plane to form a height difference. The driving roller drives the card and the transfer film onto the peeling roller, so that the transfer film and the card form a reversal angle of nearly 180°, thereby peeling off the transfer film.

Benefits of technology

This effectively prevents the front end of the card from colliding with the stripping roller, reduces lateral force interference, ensures smooth transfer, and avoids printer errors.

Claims

1. A re-transfer card printer with a transfer film peeling mechanism, comprising a printer chassis, wherein the printer chassis is provided with a control unit for controlling printer operation, a ribbon supply and recycling unit, a transfer film supply and recycling unit, a printing unit, a transfer unit, and a transfer plane; the transfer film supply and recycling unit includes a transfer film, a transfer film supply shaft, a transfer film recycling shaft, and multiple transfer film path guide rods; the transfer unit includes heating rollers and driving rollers; and a card transport roller assembly for transporting cards is provided on the transfer plane; characterized in that: The printer chassis is equipped with a peeling mechanism, which includes at least one freely rotatable peeling roller. The heating roller, transfer film path guide bar, and peeling roller are all located below the transfer plane. One of the multiple transfer film path guide bars is located next to the heating roller, and its upper end is tangent to the transfer plane. The peeling roller and the transfer film path guide bar are spaced apart, and the upper end of the peeling roller is spaced apart from the transfer plane to form a height difference between the upper end of the peeling roller and the upper end of the transfer film path guide bar. The drive roller is located above the transfer plane and can drive the card and the transfer film attached thereto to move onto the peeling roller.

2. A re-transfer card printer with a transfer film peeling mechanism according to claim 1, characterized in that: The printer chassis is detachably equipped with a transfer film cassette and a ribbon cassette. The ribbon supply and recycling sections are located on the ribbon cassette, and the transfer film supply and recycling sections are located on the transfer film cassette.

3. A re-transfer card printer with a transfer film peeling mechanism according to claim 1, characterized in that: The ribbon supply and recycling section includes a ribbon, a ribbon supply shaft, a ribbon recycling shaft, and multiple ribbon path guide rods. The ribbon is driven by the ribbon supply shaft and the ribbon recycling shaft, which are respectively driven by a first drive motor mechanism and a second motor mechanism.

4. The retransfer card printer with a transfer film peeling mechanism of claim 1, wherein: The transfer film supply shaft and the transfer film recycling shaft are driven by the third drive motor mechanism and the fourth drive motor mechanism, respectively.

5. The retransfer card printer with a transfer film peeling mechanism of claim 1, wherein: The printing unit includes a thermal printhead, a printing unit rubber roller, and a printing unit timing cam. The control unit controls the printing unit timing cam to make the printing unit rubber roller approach or move away from the thermal printhead, thereby printing the dye on the ribbon onto the transfer film to form an image to be transferred.

6. The retransfer card printer with a transfer film peeling mechanism of claim 1, wherein: The transfer section also includes a transfer section timing cam. The control section controls the transfer section timing cam to make the heating roller approach or move away from the drive roller, thereby transferring the transfer image on the transfer film onto the card. The card transport roller assembly and the drive roller are both driven by a stepper motor.

7. The retransfer card printer with a transfer film peeling mechanism of claim 1, wherein: The printer chassis is also equipped with a card leveling section, which is located on the side of the peeling mechanism away from the transfer section.
