Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of printer accessories technology, specifically a printer maintenance box that is easy to disassemble and assemble. Background Technology

[0002] The printer maintenance compartment, also known as the waste ink tank, is a "waste ink collection station" used during printer printhead cleaning. Waste ink is generated every time the printhead is cleaned, the ink cartridge is replaced, or the printer automatically cleans itself after a long period of standby. This waste ink is absorbed by the maintenance compartment.

[0003] Once the maintenance box is full or the chip recognition fails, the printer will report an error. This can result in anything from being unable to print to the printhead becoming clogged or even the motherboard being damaged. Therefore, once the maintenance box has stored a certain amount of waste ink, it needs to be removed for maintenance.

[0004] However, the existing maintenance box disassembly and assembly structure usually uses snap-fit ​​connections. Traditional plastic snap-fits have a "fatigue" problem and are prone to wear and breakage after repeated disassembly and assembly. Once the snap-fit ​​breaks, it will directly affect normal use.

The positioning latch 101 is used to achieve a positioning effect during installation, ensuring that the maintenance box body 1 is accurately aligned when pushed into the maintenance box mounting slot 2, without wobbling back and forth or left and right, and can withstand a certain weight. Furthermore, by setting the first magnetic block 1011 and the second magnetic block 2011, after being pushed to the bottom, the first magnetic block 1011 and the second magnetic block 2011 attract each other, and a crisp "click" sound will be heard and a slight attraction will be felt. This is the feedback of successful magnetic engagement, preventing the module box from sliding out on its own due to vibration during transportation. The maintenance box mounting slot 2 is integrated with the printer, which is the installation position of the printer's maintenance box.

[0019] Furthermore, a recessed groove 102 is provided on the top of the maintenance box body 1, and several slots 103 are provided on the side of the recessed groove 102. The cover plate 3 is disposed inside the recessed groove 102, and a locking block 301 that cooperates with the slot 103 is fixed on the side of the cover plate 3. The locking block 301 is locked in the slot 103. This enables the cover plate 3 to be detached and installed. By using a tool to pry the cover plate 3, the locking block 301 can be disengaged from the slot 103.

[0020] Furthermore, a disassembly opening 104 is provided between the plurality of slots 103. The disassembly opening 104 is provided to provide a pry point for disassembly tools.

[0021] Furthermore, an outwardly protruding pull block 105 is fixed to the outer side of the maintenance box body 1. The outwardly protruding pull block 105 is mainly for facilitating the pulling out of the maintenance box body 1.

[0022] Furthermore, the cover plate 3 is provided with an observation grid 302. The observation grid 302 is provided to facilitate a direct view of the internal condition of the maintenance box body 1.

[0023] Furthermore, the maintenance box body 1 is equipped with several sponges 4 inside. The sponges 4 are used to absorb waste ink.

[0024] In summary, the positioning tenon 101 on the side of the maintenance box body 1 and the sliding track 201 of the maintenance box mounting groove 2 form a sliding fit. During installation, the positioning tenon 101 is pushed in along the sliding track 201, forcibly constraining the front-back and left-right displacement of the maintenance box body 1 to ensure precise alignment of the installation path. When the positioning tenon 101 is pushed to the end of the sliding track 201, the first magnetic block 1011 at the end of the tenon and the second magnetic block 2011 at the end of the track attract each other due to magnetic attraction, forming a fixed lock. At the same time, the "click" sound and slight suction feedback indicate that the installation is in place, preventing the maintenance box from sliding out on its own due to vibration. A recessed groove 102 is provided on the top of the maintenance box body 1. The cover plate 3 is embedded in the recessed groove 102. The locking block 301 on the side of the cover plate 3 and the locking groove 103 on the side of the recessed groove 102 form a locking structure to achieve the initial fixation of the cover plate 3. When it is necessary to remove the cover plate 3, the "removal opening 104" reserved on the recessed groove 102 is used as a pry point. The cover plate 3 can be pried open with a tool to disengage the locking block 301 from the locking groove 103, thus completing the removal of the cover plate 3. An "outer protruding pull block 105" is fixed on the outside of the maintenance box body 1. This pull block provides the operator with a clear point of force application. Without the need for additional tools, the maintenance box body 1 can be pulled out of the mounting groove by directly pulling the outer protruding pull block 105, simplifying the disassembly operation process.
