Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of label printer technology, and in particular to an automatic label recognition printer. Background Technology
[0002] An automatic identification label printer is an intelligent device that can automatically detect and identify the type and size of label paper and adjust printing parameters. It requires no manual settings and can print immediately after installation. It has multiple built-in sensors that can automatically identify label gaps, black marks, or RFID chips.
[0003] Automatic label printers are essential tools for modern offices and production. Through built-in intelligent sensors and software algorithms, they enable "on-demand" label printing, significantly improving work efficiency and reducing human error. When choosing a printer, consider the application scenario, label type, and budget, prioritizing products with good compatibility and high recognition accuracy. Inside the printer's paper tray, near the bottom or side of the label paper path, there is usually a black / transparent probe with a small window, positioned directly in front of the "gap detection area" on the label backing paper. Align it with the blank gaps between labels. Some models have this probe near the pressure roller, detecting the gaps as the paper rolls.
[0004] Label printers have the following drawbacks: the sensor surface is frequently used and accumulates dust and impurities, affecting the accuracy of subsequent recognition and causing printing recognition abnormalities. To address this issue, an automatic recognition label printer is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0017] 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.
[0018] Reference Figures 1-3This utility model provides an embodiment of an automatic identification label printer, including a label printer body 1 and an operation panel 2. The operation panel 2 is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the label printer body 1, facilitating direct user operation of the device, such as setting printing parameters and controlling printing start and stop. A paper feeding channel 3 is provided on the front inner wall of the label printer body 1, providing a dedicated path for the transport of label paper and ensuring that the label paper can pass through the printer interior stably and orderly. An upper slot 4 is provided on the front inner wall of the label printer body 1, providing installation space for an identification sensor body 5, enabling it to accurately correspond to the label in the paper feeding channel 3. The identification sensor body 5 can identify information on the label (such as barcodes, positioning marks, etc.), ensuring that the printed content matches the label. The identification sensor body 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the upper slot 4, and an adjustment mechanism is provided on the upper slot 4. The label printer body 1 is equipped with an auxiliary mechanism 7. The adjustment mechanism 6 includes a T-slot 61, which is located on the inner walls of the left and right sides of the label printer body 1. A U-shaped frame 62 is slidably connected to the inner walls of the left and right sides of the T-slot 61. A drive motor 63 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the front side of the U-shaped frame 62. A threaded rod 64 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 63 via a coupling. A threaded sleeve is threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded rod 64. A sliding frame 65 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the threaded sleeve. A brush 66 is fixedly installed on the top of the sliding frame 65. The brush 66 moves with the sliding frame 65 and can wipe the dust and stains on the outer surface of the identification sensor body 5 to avoid impurities affecting the identification accuracy of the identification sensor body 5. A flexible sheet 67 is fixedly connected to the outer top of the U-shaped frame 62. A cone buckle 68 is fixedly connected to the outer top of the flexible sheet 67. A compression spring 69 is fixedly connected to the outer bottom of the flexible sheet 67.
[0019] Reference Figures 2-4 The brush 66 contacts the bottom outer wall of the recognition sensor body 5. The threaded rod 64 is rotatably connected to the inner walls of the front and rear sides of the U-shaped frame 62 through the bearing. The outer side wall of the convex cone buckle 68 is fixedly connected with a wear-resistant pad. The wear-resistant pad can reduce the friction loss between the convex cone buckle 68 and the inner wall of the T-slot 61 and extend the service life of the convex cone buckle 68. The convex cone buckle 68 is snapped into the top inner wall of the T-slot 61. The outer side wall of the flexible sheet 67 is fixedly connected with a frosted sleeve. The frosted sleeve increases the friction when the user presses the flexible sheet 67 to prevent slippage and facilitate the operation of the flexible sheet 67 to drive the convex cone buckle 68 to move. The end of the compression spring 69 away from the flexible sheet 67 is fixedly connected to the bottom inner wall of the U-shaped frame 62.
[0020] Reference Figures 3-4The auxiliary mechanism 7 includes a mounting port 71, which is located on the inner right side wall of the label printer body 1. A mounting bracket 72 is in contact with the inner side wall of the mounting port 71. A lever 73 is slidably connected to the inner top wall of the mounting bracket 72. A retaining plate 74 is fixedly connected to the outer right side wall of the lever 73. A telescopic spring 75 is fixedly connected to the outer left side wall of the lever 73. A transparent glass 76 is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the mounting bracket 72. The transparent glass 76 is light-transmitting, allowing users to easily observe the operation of the internal components of the label printer body 1, facilitating maintenance or enabling DIY technological designs. Silicone pads are fixedly connected to the outer left and right sides of the lever 73, increasing the tactile comfort when the user pulls the lever 73. The retaining plate 74 is engaged with the inner right side wall of the mounting port 71. The end of the telescopic spring 75 away from the lever 73 is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the mounting bracket 72. The lever 73 passes through the outer right side wall of the mounting bracket 72.
[0021] Working principle: By turning on the drive motor 63, the threaded rod 64 rotates, which drives the threaded sleeve to move. The movement of the threaded sleeve drives the sliding frame 65 to move, which in turn drives the brush 66 to move. The brush 66 wipes and cleans the outer surface of the identification sensor body 5. After long-term use, by pressing the flexible piece 67, the convex cone buckle 68 is disengaged from the top inner wall of the T-slot 61. Then, the U-shaped frame 62 is pulled out from the T-slot 61, making it easy to maintain, clean, and replace the brush 66 or the adjustment mechanism 6. At the same time, when the internal components of the label printer body 1 are running, the internal operating structure can be viewed or inspected by observing the transparent glass 76, realizing a kind of technological DIY design. At the same time, by pulling the lever 73, the card plate 74 is moved and separated from the inner wall of the right side of the mounting port 71. Then, the fixing frame 72 is pulled to easily separate from the mounting port 71. The inspection port of the label printer body 1 can be easily opened and installed without the need for additional disassembly tools.
[0022] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
