AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing label printers use a snap-on mechanism to open the cover, which requires turning the snap-on parts to open the cover. This is laborious and prone to wear and deformation.

Method used

It adopts a press-to-open structure, including a body, a cover, and a press-to-open mechanism. The press-to-open mechanism enables the hinge and opening/closing of the cover. With the cooperation of components such as the mounting frame, spring, moving block, and limit rod, the opening operation can be achieved without much effort.

Benefits of technology

The opening method is more convenient, reduces the amount of force required for operation, avoids wear and tear on the snap-fit ​​structure, and improves ease of use and equipment lifespan.
