Ink stand with ink bottle tilt angle adjustment function

Abstract

(1) The ink stand with an ink bottle tilt angle adjustment function according to this design is an ink stand for storing an ink bottle, and has a function of adjusting the tilt angle of the ink bottle support portion. By placing the ink bottle on the ink bottle support portion with the adjusted tilt angle, a desired tilt can be caused in the ink bottle. (2) The ink stand with an ink bottle tilt angle adjustment function according to this design includes a substrate, an ink bottle support portion erected on the substrate, and a tilt adjustment piece erected on the substrate. The ink bottle support portion erected on the substrate is provided with a rotation mechanism and is rotatable within a vertical plane with respect to the substrate. The tilt adjustment piece is also provided with a tilt adjustment piece rotation mechanism and is rotatable within a vertical plane with respect to the substrate. The ink bottle support portion has an insertion hole for receiving the tilt adjustment piece, and by inserting the tilt adjustment piece into the insertion hole, the two are engaged and combined. (3) A plurality of tilt angle adjustment notches are provided on the tilt adjustment piece, and by catching the edge of the insertion hole of the ink bottle support portion in the tilt angle adjustment notch, the two are engaged in a stable state. The tilt adjustment piece is biased with a rotational elastic force in a direction away from the ink bottle support portion, and the ink bottle support portion engaged in the tilt angle adjustment notch will continue to be held by the tilt angle adjustment notch of the tilt adjustment piece as long as the engaged ink bottle support portion overcomes the bias by the user's operation and does not change the engaged state.
