Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a printer. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous improvement of informatization and digitalization, printers are increasingly widely used in offices, education, and home life, becoming an indispensable device for daily document and image output. Modern printers generally use a large-area glass platform for the scanning module or automatic document feeder to hold the original document. The stability and accuracy of its installation directly determine the quality of the scanned image and the long-term reliability of the equipment.
[0003] Currently, in printers, the glass platform is secured using a simple frame structure around the base. This typically involves support only from the bottom of the glass, with insufficient lateral restraint and a lack of top clamping. Consequently, the glass is prone to loosening or even displacement when subjected to external vibrations or impacts during handling, resulting in poor stability and consequently, poor rigidity and vibration resistance of the overall structure. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide a printer.
[0005] The present invention solves the above-mentioned technical problems through the following technical solution:
[0006] This utility model discloses a printer, which includes glass, a first support member, a second support member, a first pressing member, a second pressing member, and a base; the second support member includes a first support portion, a second support portion, and a third support portion, at least a portion of the first support portion is disposed below the glass and abuts against the glass, one end of the second support portion is connected to the first support portion, the other end of the second support portion extends upward, the second support portion is used to abut against the side wall of the glass, one end of the third support portion is connected to the first support portion or the second support portion, and the other end of the third support portion is connected to the base;
[0007] The first support member, the second support member, the first pressing member, and the second pressing member form a placement area for placing the glass; the first pressing member and the second pressing member both extend horizontally and then bend downward to connect with the base to form a wrapping area that wraps around the sidewall of the glass.
[0008] The first support member is connected to the surface of the glass near the first pressing member and / or the second pressing member.
[0009] In this solution, the aforementioned structural form, through the arrangement of a first support member, a second support member, a first pressing member, and a second pressing member, constructs a multi-directional constraint structure for the glass. The first support portion of the second support member supports the glass from the bottom, while the second support portion limits the glass from the side, achieving initial fixation in the vertical and horizontal directions. The first and second pressing members extend horizontally and then bend downwards to connect with the base. This structure wraps around the glass from above and from the side, further restricting the vertical movement of the glass and its movement in the other horizontal direction. The first support member is positioned below the glass near the pressing member, providing direct support in the area where the pressing member applies force, preventing excessive stress on the glass due to localized suspension, and enhancing the stability and reliability of the fixation. This synergistic effect firmly confines the glass within the enclosed space supported by the base, improving the overall structural rigidity and vibration resistance.
[0010] Preferably, the third support portion is connected to the end of the first support portion that is away from the second support portion;
[0011] The second support member further includes a fourth support portion, one end of which is connected to the end of the first support portion near the second support portion, and the other end of which is connected to the base.
[0012] In this design, the aforementioned structural form is adopted, with the third and fourth support parts connected to both ends of the first support part and fixed to the base, forming a complete double-sided support structure for the first support part, significantly improving its bending resistance. The distributed connection between multiple support parts and the base enhances the overall rigidity of the second support member, achieving uniform load transfer to the base, thereby improving the stability of the fixed glass.
[0013] Preferably, the first support portion, the second support portion, the third support portion, and the fourth support portion are connected in an "h" shape by being cut along a direction parallel to the plane formed by the width and height of the printer.
[0014] In this solution, the above-mentioned structural form is adopted. The first support part serves as the top beam supporting the glass, and the second support part, together with the third and fourth support parts, transfers the load to the base, effectively resisting stress from the vertical and horizontal directions, improving the rigidity and stability of the local structure, thereby ensuring that the glass maintains its precise position when subjected to external forces.
[0015] Preferably, the first support portion, the second support portion, the third support portion, and the fourth support portion are integrally formed.
[0016] In this design, the aforementioned structural form is adopted, which enhances the overall rigidity and strength.

[0018] Preferably, the second support portion is connected to the middle region of the first support portion, and when the top cover of the printer is placed on the glass, the surface of the top cover facing the glass has a first gap in the vertical direction with the first region of the first support portion; wherein, the first region is the region of the first support portion that extends beyond the glass in the horizontal direction.
[0019] In this design, the above-mentioned structural form is adopted to facilitate the opening of the top cover.
[0020] Preferably, the top cover of the printer has a groove on the surface facing the glass, and when the top cover is placed on the glass, the bottom of the groove and the first support portion have a second gap in the vertical direction.

[0022] Preferably, the second support member further includes a fifth support portion, one end of which is connected to the end of the second support portion away from the first support portion, and the other end of which is connected to the third support portion;
[0023] The third support is connected to the side wall of the base.
[0024] In this design, the above-mentioned structural form allows lateral impact force to be directly transmitted from the second support part to the base sidewall via the fifth support part.
[0025] Preferably, the first support portion, the second support portion, the fifth support portion, and the third support portion are integrally formed.
[0026] In this design, the aforementioned structural form is adopted, which enhances the overall rigidity and strength.
[0027] Preferably, the first support member, the first pressing member, the second support member, and the second pressing member sequentially form the placement area;
[0028] The first support member and the second crimping member have a third gap in the extending direction of the first support member; the second support member and the first crimping member have a fourth gap in the extending direction of the second support member.
[0029] In this design, the aforementioned structural form provides operational space for glass installation through the third and fourth gaps. The glass can be tilted at a certain angle, allowing one edge to preferentially enter the placement area through the third or fourth gap. This avoids interference between the glass and the first or second pressing component during placement, reducing assembly difficulty and improving installation convenience and efficiency.

[0057] The present invention will be described more clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings, using a preferred embodiment as an example.
[0058] like Figures 1 to 10As shown, this embodiment provides a printer 100, which includes a glass 1, a first support member 2, a second support member 3, a first pressing member 4, a second pressing member 5, and a base 6. The second support member 3 includes a first support portion 31, a second support portion 32, and a third support portion 33. At least a portion of the first support portion 31 is located below the glass 1 and abuts against the glass 1. One end of the second support portion 32 is connected to the first support portion 31, and the other end of the second support portion 32 extends upward. The second support portion 32 is used to abut against the side wall of the glass 1. One end of the support part 33 is connected to the first support part 31 or the second support part 32, and the other end of the third support part 33 is connected to the base 6. The first support member 2, the second support member 3, the first pressing member 4, and the second pressing member 5 form a placement area 8 for placing the glass 1. The first pressing member 4 and the second pressing member 5 both extend horizontally and then bend downward to connect with the base 6 to form a wrapping area that wraps the sidewall of the glass 1. The first support member 2 is located below the glass 1, and the surface of the glass 1 near the first pressing member 4 and the second pressing member 5 is connected to the first support member 2. With the above structural form, a multi-directional constraint structure for the glass 1 is constructed through the layout of the first support member 2, the second support member 3, the first pressing member 4, and the second pressing member 5. The first support part 31 of the second support member 3 supports the glass 1 from the bottom, and the second support part 32 limits the glass 1 from the side, realizing the initial fixation in the vertical and horizontal directions. The first pressing member 4 and the second pressing member 5 extend horizontally and then bend downwards to connect with the base 6. This structure wraps around the glass 1 from above and the sides, further restricting the vertical movement of the glass 1 and its horizontal movement. The first support member 2 is positioned below the glass 1 near the pressing members, providing direct support in the area where the pressing members apply force. This prevents excessive stress on the glass 1 due to localized suspension, enhancing the stability and reliability of the fixation. This synergistic effect firmly confines the glass 1 within the enclosed space supported by the base 6, improving the overall structural rigidity and vibration resistance.
[0059] It should be specifically noted that the placement area 8 is the section formed by the first support member 2, the second support member 3, the first pressing member 4, and the second pressing member 5, used to accommodate and position the glass 1. The establishment of the placement area 8 depends on the coordinated spatial arrangement of the four components, rather than necessarily on their physical connection. The first support member 2 and the second support member 3 mainly provide support and positioning from below and to the side of the glass 1, while the first pressing member 4 and the second pressing member 5 apply constraints from above and to the side of the glass 1. The first support member 2, the second support member 3, the first pressing member 4, and the second pressing member 5 can be connected end to end to form a complete closed frame, which can enhance the overall structural rigidity; they can also be independent of each other, but rather defined by their respective spatial positions by fixing them to the base 6 or other basic structures, thus defining the placement area 8. Regardless of the connection method, their core function is to restrict the degrees of freedom of the glass 1 in all directions through the coordination of their spatial positions, ensuring that it is stably fixed.
[0060] In this embodiment, the second support member 3 can be structurally connected to the first crimping member 4 or the second crimping member 5 through the second support part 32.
[0061] In addition, such as Figure 3 and Figure 9 As shown, the wrapping area is a spatial structure formed by the first pressing member 4 and the second pressing member 5, both of which extend horizontally and then bend downwards to connect with the base 6. The opening of this area faces the glass 1, and its overall outline is approximately in the shape of a "7". Structurally, the horizontal segment of the "7" shape forms the upper surface of the wrapping area, which abuts against the upper surface of the glass 1 after installation, providing downward clamping force; the vertical segment of the "7" shape forms the sidewall of the wrapping area, which abuts against the sidewall of the glass 1, providing lateral restraint and control. This design allows the wrapping area to simultaneously wrap and fix the glass 1 from above and the side. Since the vertical segment is ultimately connected to the base 6, when the glass 1 is subjected to lateral force or vibration, the force can be directly transmitted to the base 6 through the vertical segment, avoiding stress concentration in the pressing members and enhancing the overall structural stability and force transmission efficiency.
[0062] In other embodiments, the first support member 2 is connected only on the surface of the glass 1 near the first pressing member 4; or, the first support member 2 is connected only on the surface of the glass 1 near the second pressing member 5.
[0063] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the third support part 33 is connected to the end of the first support part 31 away from the second support part 32; the second support member 3 also includes a fourth support part 34, one end of which is connected to the end of the first support part 31 near the second support part 32, and the other end of which is connected to the base 6. With this structure, the third support part 33 and the fourth support part 34 are respectively connected to both ends of the first support part 31 and fixed to the base 6, forming a complete double-sided support structure for the first support part 31, significantly improving its bending resistance. The distributed connection between multiple support parts and the base 6 enhances the overall rigidity of the second support member 3, achieving uniform load transfer to the base 6, thereby improving the stability of the fixed glass 1.
[0064] In this embodiment, the first support portion 31, the second support portion 32, the third support portion 33, and the fourth support portion 34 are connected in an "h" shape by cutting along a plane parallel to the width and height of the printer 100. With this structural form, the first support portion 31 serves as the top beam supporting the glass 1, while the second support portion 32, the third support portion 33, and the fourth support portion 34 together transfer the load to the base 6, effectively resisting stress from both the vertical and horizontal directions, improving the rigidity and stability of the local structure, and thus ensuring that the glass 1 maintains accurate positioning when subjected to external forces.
[0065] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, the width and height directions of printer 100 are the y and z directions, respectively.
[0066] In this embodiment, the first support portion 31, the second support portion 32, the third support portion 33, and the fourth support portion 34 are integrally formed, thereby enhancing the overall rigidity and strength. In other embodiments, the first support portion 31, the second support portion 32, the third support portion 33, and the fourth support portion 34 may also have other connection methods, which are not limited here. In addition, in this embodiment, the fourth support portion 34 is connected to the side wall of the base 6.
[0067] like Figure 6 As shown, the second support portion 32 is connected to the middle region of the first support portion 31. When the top cover 7 of the printer 100 is placed on the glass 1, there is a first gap in the vertical direction between the surface of the top cover 7 facing the glass 1 and the first region of the first support portion 31; wherein, the first region is the area of the first support portion 31 that extends beyond the glass 1 in the horizontal direction. This structural form facilitates the opening of the top cover 7.
[0068] The top cover 7 of the printer 100 has a groove on its surface facing the glass 1. When the top cover 7 is placed on the glass 1, there is a second gap between the bottom of the groove and the first support 31 in the vertical direction. This structure provides the operator with a clear position for applying force, making it easy to insert fingers into the groove and apply force to open the top cover 7, effectively improving the ease of operation of opening the top cover 7.
[0069] like Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the second support member 3 also includes a fifth support portion 35. One end of the fifth support portion 35 is connected to the end of the second support portion 32 away from the first support portion 31, and the other end of the fifth support portion 35 is connected to the third support portion 33. The third support portion 33 is connected to the side wall of the base 6. With the above structural form, lateral impact force can be directly transmitted from the second support portion 32 to the side wall of the base 6 via the fifth support portion 35.
[0070] The first support portion 31, the second support portion 32, the fifth support portion 35, and the third support portion 33 are integrally formed, enhancing the overall rigidity and strength. In this embodiment, the first support portion 31 extends horizontally, the second support portion 32 extends vertically, the fifth support portion 35 returns to extending horizontally, and the third support portion 33 returns to extending vertically. The four are connected in sequence to form a continuous support frame.
[0071] The first support member 2, the first pressing member 4, the second support member 3, and the second pressing member 5 sequentially form a placement area 8. The first support member 2 and the second pressing member 5 have a third gap in the extending direction of the first support member 2; the second support member 3 and the first pressing member 4 have a fourth gap in the extending direction of the second support member 3. With this structural configuration, the third and fourth gaps provide operational space for the installation of the glass 1. The glass 1 can be tilted at a certain angle, allowing one edge to preferentially enter the placement area 8 through the third or fourth gap. This avoids interference between the glass 1 and the first pressing member 4 or the second pressing member 5 during placement, reducing assembly difficulty and improving installation convenience and efficiency.

Those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to these embodiments without departing from the principles and essence of this utility model, but all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
