[0138] The consumable box is an important component in the printing device. When the printing device is an inkjet printer, the corresponding consumable box is an ink cartridge that stores ink; when the printing device is a laser printer, the corresponding consumable box is a processing box, developer box, powder box, etc. that stores toner.

[0139] In order to store the manufacturer information, ink volume information, consumable box category information, ink color and other information of the consumable box, a chip is usually provided on the consumable box. The chip is generally fixed to the consumable box by gluing or welding. The installation position of the chip is lower than the plane of the consumable box where the chip is located. Existing chip disassembly and assembly tools and disassembly methods are difficult to disassemble it, or the chip may be easily damaged during the disassembly process, making it impossible to recycle.

[0140] The present application discloses a chip disassembly fixture, which disassembles the carrier part along the edge of the carrier part through a disassembly part, so that the carrier part and the chip installed on the carrier part are separated from the ink cartridge together, which facilitates the recycling and reuse of the chip and avoids the waste of chip resources.

[0141] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, a brief description of a conventional ink cartridge 1 is provided. Ink cartridge 1 is typically installed in a recording device (e.g., a printer) and stores ink. When the recording device is recording, the ink in cartridge 1 appears on a recording medium (e.g., paper or other ink-carrying printing medium).

[0142] Referring to Figures 1 to 3, the ink cartridge 1 includes a shell 11, a handle portion 12, a first snap-fit ​​portion 121, and a second snap-fit ​​portion 111. The shell 11 is used to contain ink, and an ink outlet 14 is provided at the bottom (-Z direction) of the shell 11. The ink outlet 14 is used to discharge the ink in the shell 11 onto a recording device. The handle portion 12 is provided on the +X side of the shell 11, and the handle portion 12 is inclined relative to the +X side of the shell 11. The first snap-fit ​​portion 121 is provided on the handle portion 12, and the first snap-fit ​​portion 121 extends along the X direction away from the handle portion 12. The second snap-fit ​​portion 111 is protrudingly provided on the -X side of the shell 11, and the second snap-fit ​​portion 111 is provided opposite to the handle portion 12 and is closer to the ink outlet 14 than the handle portion 12. When the ink cartridge is installed on the recording device, the handle portion 12 is engaged with the recording device; the second engaging portion 111 is also engaged with the recording device, so that under the action of the first engaging portion 121 and the second engaging portion 111, the ink cartridge 1 is stably fixed on the recording device to achieve ink filling.

[0143] The ink cartridge 1 also includes a chip 13, which is disposed at the bottom of the housing 11. The chip 13 stores ink cartridge information. The chip 13 and the ink outlet 14 are disposed on the same plane, and the chip 13 is closer to the handle 12 than the ink outlet 14. Typically, the chip 13 can be mounted on the housing 11 by welding. The chip 13 can be used to record information such as the amount of ink in the ink cartridge 1 and the number of times the ink cartridge 1 has been used. When the ink cartridge 1 is mounted on a recording device, the chip 13 can be electrically connected to the recording device to transmit information on the chip 13 to the recording device. To avoid wasting resources, the chip 13 on the ink cartridge 1 can be removed and installed on a new ink cartridge for reuse. The ink cartridge chip removal fixture 2 of the present application is used for removing the chip 13.

[0144] It should be noted that in the following description, the length direction of the ink cartridge is defined as the X direction, the width direction of the ink cartridge is defined as the Y direction, and the height direction of the ink cartridge is defined as the Z direction, and the X direction, Y direction and Z direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0145] Example 1

[0146] As shown in Figures 4 and 5, this embodiment discloses a chip disassembly fixture 2, which includes a fixture component 20, a disassembly portion 30 and a force-applying portion 40.

The disassembly portion 30 can be movably mounted on the fixture component 20, and the disassembly portion 30 can move relative to the fixture component 20 to disassemble the chip assembly, wherein the chip assembly includes a chip carrier and a chip arranged on the chip carrier. For example, when the disassembly portion 30 moves on the fixture component 20, the disassembly portion 30 can disassemble the chip carrier where the chip 13 is located, so that the chip 13 on the chip carrier is also removed together. The force-applying portion 40 is mounted on the fixture member 20 and is movable relative to the fixture member 20. The force-applying portion 40 is configured to receive an external force to drive the removal portion 30 to move, thereby causing the removal portion 30 to move on the fixture member 20 to remove the chip 13 and the chip carrier. The chip removal fixture 2 of this embodiment utilizes the force-applying portion 40 to drive the removal portion 30 to move on the fixture member 20, thereby removing the chip 13 and the chip carrier from the ink cartridge. The chip removal fixture 2 of this embodiment has a simple structure and is easy to operate. This solves the problem of difficulty in installing or removing the chip 13 from the ink cartridge 1 in the prior art, and significantly improves the reusability of the chip 13.

[0147] Furthermore, the opening portion 211 passes through the positioning portion 21 of the clamp component 20 in the height direction, and the length of the opening portion 211 is greater than the length of the chip 13, so that the chip can be completely exposed from the opening portion 211 during the chip disassembly process, making it convenient to take out the disassembled chip 13 and the chip carrier.

[0148] As shown in Figure 6 , the fixture assembly 20 further includes a first engaged portion 212 and a second engaged portion 213 , which are located on either side of the positioning portion 21 in the X direction. The first engaged portion 212 is configured to engage with the first engaging portion 121 on the ink cartridge housing, while the second engaged portion 213 is configured to engage with the second engaging portion 111 on the ink cartridge housing. This allows the positioning portion 21 to be stably engaged with the ink cartridge housing, ensuring the proper positioning of the disassembly portion 30 and the supporting portion where the ink cartridge chip 13 is located.

[0149] Referring to Figures 6 and 7 , the fixture component 20 further includes an assembly portion 20a, which is connected to the positioning portion 21 and positioned between the positioning portion 21 and the force-applying portion 40. The disassembly portion 30 is tilted relative to the assembly portion 20a, such that the disassembly portion 30 forms an inclined disassembly path during movement, extending along the axial direction of the force-applying portion 40. Specifically, the positioning portion 21 is provided with a positioning groove 21a, and the assembly portion 20a is provided with a mounting groove 22 and a mounting hole 224. The mounting groove 22 is positioned between the positioning groove 21a and the force-applying portion 40. When the fixture component 20 is mounted on the ink cartridge and disassembled normally, the mounting groove 22 is a bottom-opening groove. When the fixture component 20 is reversed, the mounting groove 22 is an upward-facing groove. The mounting hole 224 is positioned between the mounting groove 22 and the positioning groove 21a, and the mounting groove 22, mounting hole 224, and positioning groove 21a are interconnected. The disassembly portion 30 is disposed in the mounting groove 22 and can slide in the mounting groove 22 so that a portion of the disassembly portion 30 can extend into the positioning groove 21 a through the mounting hole 224 to achieve chip disassembly.

[0150] In order to limit the position of the detachable portion 30, the clamp component 20 further includes a first limiting portion and a second limiting portion. The first limiting portion is provided on both sides of the mounting groove 22 and is used to limit the position of the detachable portion 30 in the depth direction of the mounting groove 22. The second limiting portion is provided at the end of the mounting groove 22 and is used to limit the position of the detachable portion 30 in the length direction of the mounting groove 22.

[0151] 8 to 10 , the mounting groove 22 is provided with a bottom surface 22a and two oppositely arranged side surfaces, each side surface includes a first portion 22b and a second portion 22c, the width between the two first portions 22b is different from the width between the two second portions 22c, and the width between the two second portions 22c is greater than the width between the two first portions 22b, and a limiting end surface 222 is provided at one end of the first portion 22b close to the bottom surface, and a gap 221a is formed between the limiting end surface 222 and the bottom surface 22a, forming a first limiting portion.

[0152] As shown in Figure 11, the disassembly part 30 is configured as a cutter, which includes a cutter head 33, a cutter body 32 and a pushed part 31. Preferably, the cutter head 33, the cutter body 32 and the pushed part 31 can be an integrally formed structure, and the cutter head 33 and the pushed part 31 are respectively located at the two ends of the cutter body 32. The cutter head 33 has a wedge-shaped structure, and the cutter head 33 is arranged on the horizontally arranged end of the cutter body 32, and the pushed part 31 is arranged on the vertically arranged part of the cutter body 32, so that the disassembly part 30 is a roughly "L"-shaped structure as a whole.

[0153] When the disassembly part 30 moves on the clamp component 20, the disassembly part 30 sets one end of the cutter head 33 close to the positioning part 21, and the disassembly part 30 sets one end of the pushed part 31 close to the force-applying part 40. The pushed part 31 abuts against the force-applying part 40 and can receive the drive of the force-applying part 40 to make the disassembly part 30 move in the installation groove 22, so that the cutter head 33 can move along the preset track to remove the chip 13 and the chip 13 supporting part from the shell of the ink cartridge.

[0154] As shown in Figure 12, the blade body 32 includes a first blade body portion 32a and a second blade body portion 32b that are connected to each other. The pushed portion 31 is connected to an end of the second blade body portion 32b away from the first blade body portion 32a, and the blade head 33 is connected to an end of the first blade body portion 32a away from the second blade body portion 32b. The widths of the first blade body portion 32a and the second blade body portion 32b are different. The width of the second blade body portion 32b is greater than the width of the first blade body portion 32a. The width of the first blade body portion 32a corresponds to the width between the two first parts 22b in the installation groove 22, and the width of the second blade body portion 32b corresponds to the width between the two second parts 22c in the installation groove 22. When the disassembly portion 30 is installed in the installation groove 22, the portion of the second blade body portion 32b protruding from the first blade body portion 32a can move in the gap 221a and is prevented from falling out of the installation groove 22 under the limitation of the limiting end surface 222. At the same time, a first limited portion 23b1 is also provided at the front end of the portion of the second blade body portion 32b protruding from the first blade body portion 32a.

[0155] When the disassembly part 30 is installed in the installation groove 22, the blade head 33 of the disassembly part 30 can extend into the positioning groove 22 through the installation hole 224, and the blade body 32 and the pushed part 31 of the disassembly part 30 can be pushed by the force-applying part 40 to move in the installation groove 22, so that the blade head 33 moves in the installation hole 224 to disassemble the chip 13 and the chip carrier part positioned by the positioning part 21.

[0156] In this embodiment, the mounting portion 20a is provided with an inclined mounting surface, and the disassembly portion 30 is mounted on this inclined mounting surface. Specifically, the bottom surface 22a can be tilted, and along the length direction of the positioning portion 21, the height of one side of the bottom surface 22a is higher than the height of the other side of the bottom surface 22a. That is, the height of the first side end surface 22a1 is higher than the height of the second side end surface 22a2, forming an inclined mounting surface, and the disassembly portion 30 is mounted on the inclined bottom surface 22a.

[0157] In some other embodiments, the disassembly portion 30 can also be set to be inclined, or the blade head 33 on the disassembly portion 30 can be set to be inclined, so that the bottom surface 22a of the installation groove can be set to be inclined or non-inclined, as long as the final inclined shape is ensured to be the same as the inclined shape of the bottom surface 22a in the above-mentioned installation groove 22, that is, the disassembly can be carried out according to the above-mentioned inclined preset path, and there is no restriction here.

[0158] Continuing with reference to Figure 8, the second limiting portion 223 is the end surface connected to the bottom surface on both sides of the mounting groove 22, which is flush with the end surface of the mounting hole 224. When the disassembly portion 30 moves to the position of the second limiting portion 223 along the +Y axis direction in the mounting groove 22, the first limited portion 23b1 on the blade body 32 is blocked and limited by the second limiting portion 223, and the disassembly portion 30 can no longer move, so that the distance the disassembly portion 30 moves in the mounting groove 22 is fixed, and the position of the blade head 33 on the disassembly portion 30 inserted into the shell of the ink cartridge is fixed. At the same time, the disassembly portion 30 cuts the supporting portion where the chip is located from one end to the other end, and cuts off the chip and the supporting portion where the chip is located from the shell of the ink cartridge.

[0159] 10 and 13 , the force-applying portion 40 includes a driving member 42 and a handle 41. The force-applying member 42 is mounted on the fixture component 20 and is movable, thereby abutting against the pushed portion 31 of the disassembly portion 30 in the mounting groove 22. The handle 41 is connected to the driving member 42. The handle 41 is capable of receiving external force to drive the driving member 42 to move on the fixture component 20, thereby pushing the disassembly portion 30 to move and disassembling the chip 13. Specifically, the fixture component 20 is provided with a screw hole 23. In the width Y direction of the fixture component 20, the screw hole 23 is provided on the other end of the fixture component 20 opposite to the positioning portion 21. On the fixture component 20, the mounting hole 224, the mounting groove 22, and the screw hole 23 are sequentially arranged in the width direction of the fixture component 20, and the mounting hole 224 and the screw hole 23 are both connected to the mounting groove 22. The driving member 42 is a cylindrical structural member. The outer circumferential surface of the driving member 42 is provided with a thread 421. The driving member 42 is installed in the screw hole 23 by cooperating with the internal thread 231 in the screw hole 23 through the thread 421. The driving member 42 can move and rotate in the screw hole 23 by cooperating with the internal thread 231 in the screw hole 23. One end of the driving member 42 connected to the handle 41 extends out of the clamp component 20, and the other end of the driving member 42 passes through the screw hole 23 and falls into the mounting groove 22 to abut the pushed portion 31 on the disassembly portion 30. When in use, the handle 41 can be rotated outside the clamp component 20 to allow the driving member 42 to rotate in the screw hole 23. The end of the driving member 42 in the mounting groove 22 pushes the disassembly portion 30 to move on the mounting groove 22, and the disassembly portion 30 can disassemble the chip 13 and the chip carrier. In some other embodiments, the driving member 42 can also be a prismatic structural member, which is not limited here.

[0160] Referring to Figures 14 to 16 , when the chip removal fixture in this embodiment is in use:

[0161] First, the clamp component 20 is engaged with the engaging portion on the ink cartridge housing through the engaged portion of the positioning portion 21 , so that the chip 13 corresponds to the position of the opening portion 211 on the clamp component 20 , thereby exposing the chip 13 through the opening portion 211 of the positioning portion 21 .

[0162] Then, the handle 41 of the force-applying portion 40 is rotated, causing the rotary drive member 42 to move on the fixture 20, pushing the disassembly portion 30 within the mounting slot 22 and mounting hole 224. This causes the cutting head 33 of the disassembly portion 30 to extend along the inclined bottom surface in the direction of the chip 13 into the ink cartridge housing, i.e., into the chip support portion. The force-applying portion 40 is further rotated, pushing the disassembly portion 30 until the first restricted portion 32b1 abuts the second restricted portion 223. The disassembly portion 30 then cuts through the chip support portion, and the chip and chip support portion are removed from the ink cartridge housing.

[0163] Finally, the disassembled chip 13 and the chip carrier are mounted on the chip mounting portion of a new ink cartridge.

[0164] Example 2

[0165] This embodiment provides another chip removal fixture. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the structures of the removal portion and the installation slot of this embodiment are different from those of the first embodiment.

[0166] As shown in Figures 17 to 21, in this embodiment, the chip removal fixture further includes two third limiting portions 221. The two third limiting portions 221 are respectively disposed at the bottom of the mounting groove 22 and on both sides of the mounting groove 22. The distance between the two third limiting portions 221 is smaller than the distance between the two sides of the mounting groove 22. The third limiting portions 221 are used to limit the removal portion 30 in the width direction of the mounting groove 22. The mounting groove 22 is further provided with a protrusion on the end surface near the positioning portion 21. The protrusion protrudes in a direction away from the positioning portion 21 and is disposed at the upper portion of the mounting groove 22 and connected to the side surface of the mounting groove 22. It can also be integrally formed. A locking member 222a is provided on the bottom of the mounting groove 22. One end of the locking member 222a is connected to the protrusion, and the other end is suspended in the air. There is a gap between the bottom and side surfaces of the mounting groove 22 in the height and length directions, forming a first limiting portion. Among them, the number of the locking parts 222a is also set to two, the two locking parts 222a are arranged opposite to each other, and the end of the locking part 222a close to the bottom of the installation groove 22 is arranged to protrude more than the protrusion, that is, the distance between the two locking parts 222a is smaller than the distance between the two protrusions, and the distance between the two protrusions is basically the same as the distance between the two third limiting parts 221.

[0167] In this embodiment, the bottom surface of the mounting groove 22 is also inclined, and in the length direction of the positioning portion 21, the height of one side of the bottom surface of the mounting groove 22 is higher than the height of the other side, forming an inclined mounting surface. The disassembly portion 30 is installed on the inclined bottom surface of the mounting groove 22, so that the disassembly portion 30 forms an inclined disassembly path when moving.

[0168] As shown in Figures 22 and 23, the disassembly portion 30 includes a cutter head 33, a cutter body 32, and a pushed portion 31. The cutter body 32 includes a first cutter body portion 322 and two second cutter body portions 321. The two second cutter body portions 321 are respectively connected to the two sides of the first cutter body portion 322 to form a "U"-shaped structure. The pushed portion 31 is connected to the first cutter body portion 322, and the setting direction of the pushed portion 31 is exactly opposite to the setting direction of the two second cutter body portions 321. There are three cutter heads 33, and the three cutter heads 33 are respectively connected to the first cutter body portion 322 and the two second cutter body portions 321. In some other embodiments, the cutter heads here can also be set to two, four, or more, which is not limited here.

[0169] When the disassembly part 30 is installed in the installation groove 22, the inner sides of the two second blade parts 321 abut against the third limiting part 221, so that the disassembly part 30 can be limited to move along the length direction in the installation groove 22 through the third limiting part 221. At the same time, the first blade part 322 abuts against the locking part 222a to prevent the disassembly part from falling off from the installation groove 22.

[0170] As shown in FIG24 , the second limiting portion 223 is provided on the end of the mounting groove 22 away from the positioning portion 21. When the disassembling portion 30 moves in the mounting groove 22 along the +Y axis direction, the pushed portion 31 on the disassembling portion 30 is limited by the second limiting portion 223, so that the movement distance of the disassembling portion 30 in the mounting groove 22 is fixed, and the position of the cutting head 33 on the disassembling portion 30 inserted into the ink cartridge housing is fixed. Specifically, the second limiting portion 223 is the end surface of the protrusion on both sides of the mounting groove 22 away from the positioning portion, which is parallel to the end surface of the mounting hole 224. When the disassembling portion 30 moves to the position of the second limiting portion 223 in the mounting groove 22, the pushed portion 31 on the disassembling portion 30 is blocked by the second limiting portion 223, and the disassembling portion 30 cannot move further. The disassembling portion 30 removes the chip carrier from three sides, and the chip and the chip carrier are removed from the ink cartridge housing.

[0171] 25 and 26 , when the chip removal fixture in this embodiment is in use:

[0172] First, the clamp component 20 is engaged with the engaging portion on the ink cartridge housing through the engaged portion of the positioning portion 21 , so that the chip 13 corresponds to the position of the opening portion 211 on the clamp component 20 , thereby exposing the chip 13 through the opening portion 211 of the positioning portion 21 .

[0173] Then, the handle 41 of the force-applying portion 40 is rotated, causing the rotary drive member 42 to move on the clamping member 20, pushing the disassembly portion 30 within the mounting slot 22 and mounting hole 224. This allows the cutting head 33 of the disassembly portion 30 to extend into the ink cartridge housing, i.e., into the chip-carrying portion. The force-applying portion 40 is further rotated, pushing the disassembly portion 30 until the pushed portion 31 abuts the second stopper 223. The disassembly portion 30 then cuts off the chip-carrying portion from three sides, and the chip and chip-carrying portion are removed from the ink cartridge housing.

[0174] Finally, the disassembled chip 13 and the chip carrier are mounted on the chip mounting portion of a new ink cartridge.

[0175] In this embodiment, other structures and descriptions are consistent with those in the first embodiment and will not be described again here.

[0176] In some other embodiments, the mounting groove 22 of the clamp component in the above two embodiments can also be set in reverse and connected to the positioning portion 21 in the above two embodiments. For example, during normal disassembly, the mounting groove 22 can be set as a groove with a top opening, so that the movement process of the disassembly portion 30 can be seen during the disassembly process, and it can also further prevent the disassembly portion from falling off, making the disassembly process more convenient.

[0177] The ink cartridge chip disassembly fixture provided by the present application locates the position of the ink cartridge and the chip by setting a positioning part, and applies a force to the disassembly part through the force-applying part, so that the disassembly part acts on the chip-carrying part, and separates the chip-carrying part from the ink cartridge shell, so that the chip and the chip-carrying part on the ink cartridge can be disassembled. It has a simple structure and is easy to operate, which solves the problem of difficult operation during the disassembly of the chip on the ink cartridge in the prior art, shortens the disassembly time, improves the disassembly efficiency, saves time and effort, and the chip disassembly fixture has a relatively simple structure, and the manufacturing difficulty and manufacturing cost are relatively low, which greatly improves the reusability of the chip.

[0178] The chip disassembly fixture provided in the present application facilitates the separation of the carrier part and the chip 13 from the shell of the ink cartridge 1, and then the disassembled carrier part and the chip 13 are installed together into the installation part of the new ink cartridge, thereby realizing the secondary use of the chip, improving the utilization rate of the chip, helping to save the cost of the chip, and having good environmental protection.

[0179] Example 3

[0180] This embodiment provides another chip removal fixture. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the structures of the fixture components and the removal portion of this embodiment are different from those of the first embodiment.

[0181] As shown in Figure 27, the fixture component 60 includes a positioning portion 21 and an assembly portion 70. The positioning portion 21 is provided with a positioning groove 61. The assembly portion 70 is movably mounted on the positioning portion 21 and is movably positioned between the positioning groove 61 and the force-applying portion 40. The disassembly portion 30 is obliquely mounted on the assembly portion 20a, so that the disassembly portion 30 forms an oblique disassembly path during movement. When the force-applying portion 40 applies pressure to the assembly portion 70, pushing the assembly portion 70 toward the positioning groove 61, it can drive the disassembly portion 30 toward the ink cartridge mounted in the positioning groove 61, thereby removing the chip and chip carrier from the ink cartridge.

[0182] As shown in Figures 28 and 29, the positioning portion 21 is also provided with a sliding groove 62, which penetrates the positioning portion 21 in the height direction, and the sliding grooves 62 are arranged on both sides of the positioning groove 61, with a certain distance between the positioning groove 61, and the sliding grooves 62 are arranged close to the assembly portion 70.

[0183] Furthermore, the assembly portion 70 includes a movable portion 71, a coupling portion 72, and a snap-fitting protrusion 713. The snap-fitting protrusion 713 is connected to the movable portion 71, and the snap-fitting protrusion 713 is slidably coupled to the sliding groove 62. Specifically, the snap-fitting protrusion 713 is L-shaped, with one end having a snap-fitting abutting surface 713a. The snap-fitting abutting surface 713a abuts the bottom surface of the sliding groove 62, allowing the snap-fitting protrusion 713 to move within the sliding groove 62. The movable portion 71 is used to assemble the disassembly portion 30, and the coupling portion 72 is connected to the movable portion 71, so that the disassembly portion 30 is snap-fitted between the movable portion 71 and the coupling portion 72.

[0184] In this embodiment, the assembly portion 70 is provided with an inclined mounting surface, and the disassembly portion 30 is mounted on this inclined mounting surface. Specifically, the movable portion 71 can be provided with an inclined mounting surface, and its inclination can be consistent with the inclination of the mounting groove bottom surface described in the first embodiment. That is, along the length direction of the movable portion 71, the height of one side of the inclined mounting surface is higher than the height of the other side of the inclined mounting surface. Of course, along the width direction of the movable portion 71, the height of one end of the inclined mounting surface can also be higher than the height of the other end of the inclined mounting surface. The disassembly portion 30 is mounted on the inclined mounting surface of the movable portion 71.

[0185] In some other embodiments, the disassembly portion 30 may also be configured to be inclined, or the blade head on the disassembly portion 30 may be configured to be inclined, so that the movable portion 71 may be provided with an inclined mounting surface or not, as long as the final inclined shape is the same as the inclined shape of the above-mentioned movable portion 71, that is, the disassembly may be performed according to the above-mentioned inclined preset path, and there is no restriction here.

[0186] As shown in Figures 30 and 31, the assembly part 70 also includes an abutment part 715, which is arranged away from the positioning part 61, and the abutment part 715 connects the movable part 71 together. It can abut with the force-applying part 40, and under the action of the force-applying part 40, the assembly part 70 moves on the clamp part 60.

[0187] Furthermore, the assembly portion 70 includes a fourth limiting portion 714. When the assembly portion 70 is mounted on the fixture component 60, the fourth limiting portion 714 is disposed opposite the positioning slot 61 and between the positioning slot 61 and the abutting portion 715. In some other embodiments, the fourth limiting portion 714 may also be disposed on the end surface of the abutting portion 715 facing the positioning slot 61. A second limited portion 63 is also disposed on the positioning slot 61, facing the fourth limiting portion 714. The second limited portion 63 abuts the fourth limiting portion 714, thereby limiting the movement distance of the movable portion 71 on the fixture component 60.

[0188] Continuing with FIG30 , the assembly portion 70 further includes a contact portion 712, which is disposed on the other side of the movable portion 71 away from the abutment portion 715. The contact portion 712 is approximately flat and square in shape. The engaging protrusion 713 protrudes downwardly from the contact portion 712 and is disposed near the fourth limiting portion 714, extending vertically through the contact portion 712. The contact portion 712 contacts the upper end surface of the clamp component 60 and is movable on the clamp component 60.

[0189] In this embodiment, a rib structure can be provided in the positioning groove 61, and the rib is provided at a position close to the second limited portion 63, and is higher near one end of the second limited portion 63; the disassembly portion can also be set upwardly at an angle, or can be set to other structures, as long as the chip and the chip carrier can be disassembled.

[0190] As shown in FIG32 , when the disassembly fixture in this embodiment is used:

[0191] First, the ink cartridge is placed upside down in the positioning portion 61 on the clamp component 60 so that the chip faces upward and is close to the disassembly portion. The ink cartridge 1 is exposed in the positioning portion 61 and the ink cartridge is stably positioned on the clamp component 60 through the positioning portion 61.

[0192] The force-applying handle is rotated, causing the rotary drive member to move on the fixture 60, pushing the assembly portion 70, to which the removal portion is fixed, causing the cutting head of the removal portion 30 to remove the chip and extend into the ink cartridge housing, where the chip carrier is located. The force-applying portion 40 is further rotated, pushing the assembly portion 70 further until the fourth limiting portion 714 abuts the second limited portion 63, preventing further rotation of the handle. The removal portion then cuts through the chip carrier, and the chip and chip carrier are removed from the ink cartridge housing.

[0193] Finally, the removed chip or chip and chip carrier are mounted on the chip mounting portion of the new ink cartridge.

[0194] Among them, the ink cartridge is fixed in the positioning portion, or an elastic clamping portion is provided in the positioning portion to achieve the ink cartridge positioning effect, which helps to improve the accuracy of the edge position of the disassembly bearing portion.

[0195] Example 4

[0196] This embodiment provides another chip removal fixture. The structure of this embodiment is basically the same as that of the third embodiment. The difference is that when the chip and the chip carrier on the ink cartridge are removed, the ink cartridge and the removal parts will move together.

[0197] As shown in Figures 33 and 34, the chip removal fixture includes a fixture component 60, a removal portion 30, and a force-applying portion 40. The fixture component 60 includes a positioning portion 21 and an assembly portion 70. The positioning portion 21 is provided with a positioning groove 61. The length of the positioning groove 61 is greater than the length of the ink cartridge 1. When the ink cartridge 1 is installed in the positioning groove 61, the ink cartridge 1 can move left and right within the positioning groove 61. The assembly portion 70 is detachably mounted on the positioning portion 21 and is located between the positioning groove 61 and the force-applying portion 40. It can move on the fixture component 60 under the action of the force-applying portion 40.

[0198] As shown in FIG35 , the assembly portion 70 includes a moving portion 71 and an engaging portion 72. The moving portion 71 is slidably connected to the positioning portion 21 and is movable on the positioning portion 21. The engaging portion 72 engages with the moving portion 71 to fix the disassembly portion 30. The disassembly portion 30 is disposed between the moving portion 71 and the engaging portion 72.

[0199] In this embodiment, the assembly portion 70 is provided with an inclined mounting surface, and the disassembly portion 30 is mounted on the inclined mounting surface. Specifically, the movable portion 71 can be provided with an inclined mounting surface, the inclination of which can be consistent with the inclination of the inclined mounting surface of the movable portion described in the third embodiment, and the disassembly portion 30 is mounted on the inclined mounting surface of the movable portion 71.

[0200] The clamp member 60 is further provided with a screw hole 62, which is provided at one end of the clamp member 60 away from the positioning groove 61. The assembly portion 70 is provided between the screw hole 62 and the positioning groove 61, and the screw hole 62 cooperates with the force applying portion 40 so that the force applying portion 40 can rotate and move in the screw hole 62.

[0201] As shown in Figure 36, the positioning groove 61 has a first end 61a and a second end 61b, the first end 61a is close to the assembly part 70, and the second end 61b is far away from the assembly part 70. When the ink cartridge 1 is installed in the positioning groove 61, the side end of the ink cartridge is close to the first end 61a, and the position of the chip on the ink cartridge is close to the disassembly part 30 on the assembly part 70.

[0202] Furthermore, the position where the ink cartridge 1 is installed in the positioning groove 61 is not unique. The ink cartridge can abut the first end 61a of the positioning groove 61, or the second end 61b of the positioning groove 61, or can be placed between the first end 61a and the second end 61b. When removing the chip and the chip carrier, the force-applying portion 40 is rotated, and the force-applying portion 40 pushes the assembly portion 70 toward the ink cartridge. When the assembly portion 70 abuts the ink cartridge, if the ink cartridge 1 does not abut the second end 61b of the positioning groove, the force-applying portion 40 is rotated again, and the ink cartridge will move together with the coupling portion 70 until the ink cartridge abuts the second end 61b of the positioning groove. The force-applying portion 40 is further rotated, and the disassembly portion 30 will disassemble the chip and the chip carrier on the ink cartridge until the chip and the chip carrier are removed.

[0203] In addition, an elastic component (not shown in the figure) can also be provided on the second end 61b of the positioning groove 61. The elastic component is provided toward the first end 61a, one end of which is connected to the second end 61b, and the other end is provided in the air. When the ink cartridge is installed in the positioning groove 61, the side end of the ink cartridge can abut against the elastic component, and under the action of the force-applying portion 40, the assembly portion 70 and the ink cartridge will move together in the direction of compression of the elastic component. At this time, the elastic component is compressed. When the compression force of the elastic component is large enough, it will push the ink cartridge toward the assembly portion 70, that is, the chip and the chip-carrying portion on the ink cartridge move toward the disassembly portion 30. In this way, the disassembly portion 30 can disassemble the chip and the chip-carrying portion more quickly under the bidirectional force of the elastic force and the rotational force. The elastic component can be a spring, a compression spring or a shrapnel, etc., which is not limited here, as shown in Figure 37.

[0204] In this embodiment, in order to make it easier to remove the chip from the ink cartridge, a cutting portion can be provided on the fixture component to remove the chip and the chip carrier from different directions. When the chip and the chip carrier are removed to a certain distance in the horizontal direction, they are cut from the top along the height direction. Alternatively, the cutting portion can be provided as a separate component (such as a pair of scissors). When the chip and the chip carrier are removed to a certain distance in the horizontal direction, the connection with the ink cartridge housing is directly cut off. Alternatively, the cutting portion can be omitted and the chip and the chip carrier can be removed by bending. With the above configuration, the chip and the chip carrier can be easily separated from the ink cartridge housing.

[0205] The ink cartridge chip disassembly fixture of the present application sets an inclined disassembly path on the fixture component, and disassembles the chip and the chip carrier according to the inclined disassembly path, so that the chip and the chip carrier are separated from the ink cartridge shell, and the chip and the chip carrier on the ink cartridge can be disassembled. It has a simple structure and is easy to operate, which solves the problem of difficult operation during the disassembly of the chip on the ink cartridge in the prior art, shortens the disassembly time, improves the disassembly efficiency, saves time and effort, and the chip disassembly fixture has a relatively simple structure, and the manufacturing difficulty and cost are relatively low, which greatly improves the reusability of the chip.

[0206] Example 5

[0207] As shown in Figures 38 to 40, this embodiment discloses a chip disassembly fixture 10, which includes a fixture component 20, a disassembly portion 30, and a force-applying portion 40. The fixture component 20 is configured as a rectangular frame with one end open, and the fixture component 20 includes a positioning portion 21, which is provided with a positioning groove 21a, an opening 211, and a preset disassembly track 214. The positioning groove 21a is used to accommodate the ink cartridge 1 to fix the ink cartridge 1 and prevent the ink cartridge 1 from moving during the disassembly of the chip 13. The opening 211 is used to expose the chip in the ink cartridge 1 when the fixture component 20 accommodates the ink cartridge 1, so as to facilitate observation of the disassembly process of the chip assembly. At least one end of the preset disassembly track 214 extends obliquely along the top surface of the fixture component 20 in a direction pointing to the bottom surface of the fixture component 20, and the preset disassembly track 214 is connected to the opening 211 to guide the disassembly path of the chip assembly. The disassembly portion 30 is detachably connected to the fixture 20, and at least partially located on the pre-set disassembly track 214, for disassembling the chip assembly. A force-applying portion 40 is connected to one end of the disassembly portion 30 and is configured to receive an external force to drive the disassembly portion 30 to move, thereby enabling disassembly of the chip assembly. The chip assembly includes a chip 13 and a chip carrier. The chip carrier is mounted on the housing of the ink cartridge 1, and the chip 13 is mounted on the chip carrier.

[0208] As shown in Figure 41, when removing the chip assembly from the ink cartridge 1, the ink cartridge 1 can be accommodated in the positioning groove 21a, so that the chip 13 is exposed to the opening 211. Then, the force-applying portion 40 is held and driven by the disassembly portion 30 to move back and forth on the fixture component 20. When the disassembly portion 30 moves back and forth on the fixture component 20, the disassembly portion 30 can disassemble the supporting portion where the chip 13 is located, so that the chip 13 on the supporting portion is also removed. The chip disassembly fixture 10 of this embodiment can disassemble the chip 13 and the chip supporting portion from the ink cartridge 1 by driving the disassembly portion 30 to move on the fixture component 20 through the force-applying portion 40. It has a simple structure and is easy to operate. It solves the problem of difficult operation during the installation or removal of the chip 13 from the ink cartridge 1 in the prior art and greatly improves the reusability of the chip 13.

[0209] As shown in FIG42 , the fixture assembly 20 includes a first frame 20c and a second frame 20d. A positioning groove 21a is formed in the first frame 20c and extends along the length of the first frame 20c. Opposite inner walls of the positioning groove 21a are provided with a first positioning portion 101a and a second positioning portion 101b, respectively. The first positioning portion 101a is used to position the end face of the ink cartridge 1 housing 11 provided with the second engaging portion 111 of the ink cartridge 1. The second positioning portion 101b is used to position the end face of the ink cartridge 1 housing 11 provided with the handle 12 of the ink cartridge 1. The second positioning portion 101b is at least partially open, facilitating exposure of the handle 12 on the ink cartridge 1 through the opening of the second positioning portion 101b. The second frame 20d is connected to the first frame 20c, but is not internally connected. The second frame 20d is used to facilitate a user's gripping of the fixture assembly 20 to facilitate chip removal.

[0210] In some other embodiments, the second frame 20d may be omitted as long as it does not affect the disassembly operation.

[0211] As shown in Figure 43, an opening 211 is provided in the first frame 20c, and the opening 211 is connected to the positioning groove 21a. When the ink cartridge 1 is accommodated in the positioning groove 21a of the first frame 20c, the opening 211 can be aligned with the chip 13 on the ink cartridge 1, so that the chip 13 is exposed from the opening 211. Specifically, the opening 211 passes through the first frame 20c in the height direction, and has a trumpet-shaped structure with a larger top and a smaller bottom. The length of the lower portion of the opening 211 is greater than the length of the chip 13, so that the chip 13 can be completely exposed from the opening 211 during the removal process of the chip 13, making it convenient to observe the removal of the chip 13 and the chip carrier.

[0212] 44 to 46 , the pre-set disassembly track 214 is provided on the first frame 20 c and is arranged in a V-shape at the lower end of the opening 211. The pre-set disassembly track 214 includes a first pre-set track 103 a and a second pre-set track 103 b. The first pre-set track 103 a and the second pre-set track 103 b respectively penetrate opposite side walls of the fixture component 20, and both the first pre-set track 103 a and the second pre-set track 103 b are in communication with the positioning slot 21 a. Specifically, the first preset track 103a extends obliquely from one end of the opening portion 211 along the direction from the top surface of the clamp part 20 to the bottom surface of the clamp part 20, and the second preset track 103b extends obliquely from the other end of the opening portion 211 along the direction from the top surface of the clamp part 20 to the bottom surface of the clamp part 20, and the first preset track 103a and the second preset track 103b are connected to form a connection 103c, which serves as the apex of the V-shape and is located directly below the opening portion 211.

[0213] Continuing with FIG. 44 , the chip removal fixture 10 further includes a first stopper 4 and a second stopper 5. The first stopper 4 is connected to the fixture component 20 and extends obliquely from one end of the opening 211 along the top surface of the fixture component 20 toward the bottom surface of the fixture component 20, such that the first stopper 4 has a first oblique end surface 41a, which is arranged parallel to the first preset track 103a. The second stopper 5 is connected to the fixture component 20 and extends obliquely from the other end of the opening 211 along the top surface of the fixture component 20 toward the bottom surface of the fixture component 20, such that the second stopper 5 has a second oblique end surface 51, which is arranged parallel to the second preset track 103b. When the ink cartridge 1 is accommodated in the positioning groove 21a, one end of the first limiting member 4 close to the side of the ink cartridge 1 where the chip is provided and one end of the second limiting member 5 close to the side of the ink cartridge where the chip is provided respectively abut against the end surface of the ink cartridge 1 shell 11 where the chip 13 is located; or, one end of the first limiting member 4 away from the top surface of the clamp component 20 and one end of the second limiting member 5 away from the top surface of the clamp component 20 respectively abut against the end surface of the ink cartridge 1 shell 11 where the chip 13 is located.

[0214] Furthermore, along the length direction of the clamp part 20, the first inclined end face 41a and the second inclined end face 51 are respectively located at the two ends of the opening portion 211, and the first inclined end face 41a extends along the top end of the clamp part 20 toward the -X axis and +Z axis directions, and the second inclined end face 51 extends along the top end of the clamp part 20 toward the +X axis and +Z axis in the opposite direction. The upper distance between the first inclined end face 41a and the second inclined end face 51 is greater than the lower distance between the two, and the lower part is closer to the chip 13 on the ink cartridge 1.

[0215] 47 , the disassembly portion 30 includes a disassembly end 21 a, which may be serrated. For example, the disassembly portion 30 may be a saw blade. In other embodiments, the disassembly portion 30 may have other structures, as long as it can remove the carrier portion where the chip 13 is located along the pre-set disassembly track 214.

[0216] In some embodiments, to facilitate the storage of the disassembly portion 30 , the chip disassembly fixture 10 further includes a protective sleeve, which can be used to install the disassembly portion 30 .

[0217] In some embodiments, the connection between the force applying portion 40 and the disassembly portion 30 can be a fixed connection or a detachable connection, which is not limited here. The force applying portion 40 is used as a handle to facilitate the user's grip, so the structure of the force applying portion 40 is not fixed and can be of any form.

[0218] Referring to Figures 41 and 48 at the same time, when the chip 13 on the ink cartridge 1 needs to be removed, the ink cartridge 1 with the chip 13 to be removed can be placed in the positioning groove of the clamp component 20, and then the force-applying part 40 is held to drive the disassembly part 30 to move back and forth in the preset disassembly track 214, that is, the disassembly part 30 can first move back and forth along the first preset track 103a, and then move back and forth along the second preset track 103b, or it can first move back and forth along the second preset track 103b, and then move back and forth along the first preset track 103a, until the disassembly part 30 finally returns to the connection 103c of the preset disassembly track 214, the disassembly process is completed, at this time, the clamp component 20 can be removed, and then the removed chip 13 and the "V"-shaped supporting part where the chip 13 is located can be removed.

[0219] In this embodiment, the disassembly part 30 can be installed into the preset disassembly track 214 first, and then the ink cartridge 1 can be installed into the clamp part 20 or the clamp part 20 can be placed on the ink cartridge 1; or the ink cartridge 1 can be installed into the clamp part 20 or the clamp part 20 can be placed on the ink cartridge 1 first, and then the disassembly part 30 can be inserted into the preset disassembly track 214 to ensure that during the assembly process, the disassembly part 30, the clamp part 20 and the ink cartridge 1 are stably connected and the chip 13 is not lost.

[0220] The specific use process of the chip removal fixture 10 in this embodiment is as follows:

[0221] First, the disassembly part 30 can be inserted into the preset disassembly track 214 and installed on the clamp part 20, and then the clamp part 20 can be put on the ink cartridge 1 to position the ink cartridge 1 in the positioning groove 21a of the first frame 20c through the first positioning part 101a and the second positioning part 101b. At this time, the chip 13 corresponds to the position of the opening part 211 on the clamp part 20, so that the chip 13 is exposed through the opening part 211.

[0222] Secondly, move the force-applying part 40 back and forth to drive the disassembly part 30 to move back and forth on the ink cartridge 1 along the preset disassembly track 214 until the disassembly part 30 finally returns to the connection point 103c of the preset disassembly track 214. The disassembly process is completed, the clamp part 20 is removed, and the disassembly part 30 cuts off the supporting part where the chip 13 is located. The chip 13 and the chip supporting part are removed from the shell 21 of the ink cartridge 1.

[0223] Finally, the disassembled chip 13 and chip carrier are mounted on the chip 13 mounting portion of the new ink cartridge 1 .

[0224] The chip disassembly fixture 10 of the present application is provided with a disassembly preset track 214 on the fixture component 20, and the disassembly part 30 moves back and forth within the disassembly preset track 214 under the action of the force application part 40, thereby acting on the chip bearing part, and further separating the chip bearing part from the cartridge 1 housing 21, so that the chip 13 and the chip bearing part on the cartridge 1 can be disassembled. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient, solving the problem of difficult operation in the process of disassembling the chip 13 on the cartridge 1 in the prior art, shortening the disassembly time, improving the disassembly efficiency, saving time and effort, and the chip disassembly fixture 10 has a relatively simple structure, and the manufacturing difficulty and manufacturing cost are also relatively low, greatly improving the reusability of the chip 13.

[0225] Embodiment Six

[0226] As shown in FIGS. 49 and 50, this embodiment discloses a chip disassembly fixture 2, which includes a fixture component 20, a disassembly part 30 and a force application part 40. The fixture component 20 includes a positioning part 21, and the positioning part 21 is provided with a positioning groove 21a with at least one end open. The positioning groove 21a is used to accommodate the cartridge 1 to position the cartridge 1 and prevent the movement of the cartridge 1 during disassembly. The disassembly part 30 includes a first disassembly component 30a and a second disassembly component 30b. The first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b are respectively installed on the fixture component 20 and are used to disassemble the chip component on the cartridge (the chip component includes a chip bearing part and a chip arranged on the chip bearing part), and the cutting paths of the first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b intersect to form an included angle a, where 0 < a < 180. The force application part 40 is installed on the fixture component 20 and is used to receive an external force to drive the cartridge 1 and the disassembly part to move relatively to achieve the purpose of disassembling the chip component on the cartridge. In this embodiment, the structures of the first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b are the same.

[0227] The first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b are respectively detachably connected to the clamp component 20, and the first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b are respectively located at opposite ends of the clamp component 20. The first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b are both movable relative to the clamp component 20, and the moving direction of the first disassembly component 30a and the moving direction of the second disassembly component 30b intersect, forming a "V"-shaped structure. When the first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b move on the clamp component 20, the first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b can disassemble the supporting portion where the chip 13 is located, so that the chip 13 on the supporting portion is also removed together. There are two force-applying parts 40, and the two force-applying parts 40 are respectively rotatably arranged at opposite ends of the clamp component 20. The two force-applying parts 40 are respectively used to drive the first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b to move, so as to realize the disassembly of the chip. In this embodiment, the force-applying part 40 drives the first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b to move on the clamp component 20, so that the chip 13 and the chip carrier on the ink cartridge can be disassembled. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient. It solves the problem of difficulty in operating the chip 13 on the ink cartridge 1 during installation or disassembly in the prior art, and greatly improves the reusability of the chip 13.

[0228] As shown in Figure 51, the fixture component 20 also includes a first protrusion 22e and a second protrusion 22f. The first protrusion 22e and the second protrusion 22f are respectively protruding from opposite ends of the positioning portion 21. That is, the first protrusion 22e and the second protrusion 22f are arranged opposite each other, and when the ink cartridge is installed on the chip removal fixture, the first protrusion 22e and the second protrusion 22f are located at opposite ends of the chip. In particular, at least one of the first protrusion 22e and the second protrusion 22f is arranged at an angle relative to the length direction of the positioning portion 21. For example, in the height direction of the ink cartridge, one end of the first protrusion 22e is higher than the other end, or one end of the second protrusion 22f is higher than the other end. The first disassembly component 30a is movably mounted on the end of the first protrusion 22e near the second protrusion 22f, and the second disassembly component 30b is movably mounted on the end of the second protrusion 22f near the first protrusion 22e. One of the two force applying parts 40 is rotatably connected to the first protrusion 22e, and the other force applying part 40 is rotatably connected to the second protrusion 22f, so that the two force applying parts 40 respectively drive the first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b to move.

[0229] In this embodiment, the ends of the first and second protrusions 22e and 22f farther from the chip are higher than their ends closer to the chip. That is, the first and second protrusions 22e and 22f extend downwardly and obliquely toward the chip. The first and second protrusions 22e and 22f are respectively used to support the first and second disassembly components 30a and 30b, allowing them to move thereon under the action of the force-applying portion 40.

[0230] As shown in Figures 52 and 53, the positioning groove 21a extends through the fixture component 20, and the upper end is open. A first protrusion 22e is mounted above one end of the positioning groove 21a, and a second protrusion 22f is mounted above the other end of the positioning groove 21a, and each protrusion is connected to the positioning groove 21a. Along the length of the fixture component 20, the positioning groove 21a is open at least at one end, and a limiting rib 21b is provided at the end away from the opening. The limiting rib 21b protrudes upward from the bottom of the positioning groove 21a and may or may not be connected to the inner side wall of the positioning groove 21a. In this embodiment, it is preferably connected. When the ink cartridge chip is installed into the positioning groove 21a with the ink cartridge chip facing upward through the opening of the positioning groove 21a, the chip is exposed through the upper end of the positioning groove 21a, and the side end of the ink cartridge abuts against the limiting rib 21b, limiting the position of the ink cartridge in the positioning groove 21a, and then positioning the chip on the ink cartridge so that the first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b can face the chip and the chip carrier, making it convenient for the disassembly component to disassemble the chip and the chip carrier.

[0231] Referring to Figures 53 and 54 , in this embodiment, the structures of the first protrusion 22e and the second protrusion 22f are substantially identical. The structure of the first protrusion 22e will now be described in detail. The first protrusion 22e is further provided with a screw hole 23. The screw hole 23 is obliquely positioned near the center of the first protrusion 22e, extending through the first protrusion 22e and located directly above the positioning groove 21a. The screw hole 23 supports the force-applying portion 40. The screw hole 23 is further provided with an internal thread 23b. The force-applying portion 40 is provided with an external thread 41. When the force-applying portion 40 is mounted on the screw hole 23, the external thread 41 is threadedly engaged with the internal thread 23b, so that one force-applying portion 40 is threadedly connected to the first protrusion 22e, and the other force-applying portion 40 is threadedly connected to the second protrusion 22f. Each force-applying portion 40 is rotatable within its corresponding screw hole 23.

[0232] Furthermore, the first protrusion 22e is provided with two first engaging grooves 24a, one on each side of the screw hole 23. The first engaging grooves 24a are aligned with the inclination of the screw hole 23 and are parallel to the inclined surface of the first protrusion 22e. The first detachment member 30a is at least partially engaged with the first engaging grooves 24a. The connection structure between the second detachment member 30b and the second protrusion 22f is similar to that between the first detachment member 30a and the first protrusion 22e, and is not further described here.

[0233] As shown in Figures 55 and 56, the structures of the first and second disassembly components 30a and 30b are essentially identical. The structure of the first disassembly component 30a will now be described in detail. The first disassembly component 30a comprises a main body 30c and a cutting portion 30d. The main body 30c comprises a connecting frame 31a and connecting arms 31b, which are connected to each other. The connecting arms 31b are disposed on either side of the connecting frame 31a. The connecting arms 31b are at least partially engaged with the first engaging groove 24a and are movable within the first engaging groove 24a. A second engaging groove 31c is further disposed at one end of the connecting frame 31a away from the connecting arms 31b. The cutting portion 30d is at least partially engaged with the second engaging groove 31c. Among them, the cutting part 30d can be a cutter, which includes a cutter head 33 and a cutter body 32. At least part of the cutter body 32 is engaged with the second engaging groove 31c and moves with the movement of the main body 30c. The cutter head 33 is located at one end of the cutter body 32 away from the main body 30c, and the cutter head 33 can be a wedge-shaped structure.

[0234] In this embodiment, when the first disassembly component 30a is installed on the first protrusion 22e and the second disassembly component 30b is installed on the second protrusion 22f, the two cutting heads 33 are respectively arranged at an angle. When extending along each cutting head respectively, the extension lines of the two cutting heads can intersect and form a "V" shape.

[0235] In some other embodiments, a limiting rib may also be provided at the open end of the positioning groove 21a. When the ink cartridge is installed into the positioning groove, both ends of the ink cartridge in the X direction respectively abut against the limiting ribs, further fixing the position of the ink cartridge in the positioning groove, preventing the movement of the ink cartridge, and stably positioning the chip.

[0236] In some other embodiments, the upper end portion of the positioning groove 21 a may be partially closed, and the position where the chip and the chip carrier face each other may be open.

[0237] In some other embodiments, when the two force-applying parts 40 are rotated, they can be rotated together; one of them can be rotated first and then the other; one side can be rotated faster and the other side can be rotated slower; there is no limitation here, as long as the chip and the chip carrier can be removed.

[0238] In some other embodiments, one of the first protrusion and the second protrusion can be set horizontally, that is, parallel to the end face where the chip is located, and the other can be set at an angle as in the present embodiment. Preferably, the second protrusion is set horizontally and the first protrusion is set at an angle to ensure that other structures of the ink cartridge will not be damaged during disassembly.

[0239] As shown in FIG57 , when the disassembly fixture in this embodiment is in use:

[0240] First, install the first disassembly component 30a, the second disassembly component 30b and the force-applying part 40 on the clamp component 20 respectively, install the ink cartridge 1 into the positioning groove 21a through the opening of the positioning groove 21a until it is limited by the limiting rib 21b in the positioning groove 21a, and the chip on the ink cartridge is exposed through the upper end opening of the positioning groove. The first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b are tilted and aligned with the position of the chip respectively.

[0241] Then, the two force-applying parts 40 are rotated until the two force-applying parts 40 respectively abut against the two disassembly parts, and the two force-applying parts 40 are continued to be rotated. At this time, the two disassembly parts move from opposite directions toward positions close to the chip, and disassemble the chip and the chip carrier along the preset trajectory until the chip and the chip carrier are removed.

[0242] Finally, the disassembled chip 13 and the chip carrier are mounted on the chip mounting portion of a new ink cartridge.

[0243] Example 7

[0244] Referring to Figures 58 to 60, an embodiment of the present application discloses a chip removal fixture 2, which includes a fixture component 20, a removal portion 30, and a force-applying portion 40. The fixture component 20 includes a positioning portion 21, which is located between the removal portion 30 and the force-applying portion 40 and has an opening. The positioning portion 21 is used to accommodate at least a portion of the ink cartridge to position the ink cartridge. The removal portion 30 is mounted on one end of the fixture component 20 and is used to remove the chip assembly from the ink cartridge. The force-applying portion 40 is movably connected to the other end of the fixture component 20 and is used to receive an external force to drive the ink cartridge toward the removal portion 30, so that the ink cartridge contacts the removal portion 30, so that the chip assembly can be removed through the removal portion 30. In this embodiment, the chip assembly includes a chip carrier and a chip, the chip carrier being mounted on the ink cartridge or being a part of the ink cartridge, and the chip being mounted on the chip carrier.

[0245] When removing the chip assembly from the ink cartridge, the ink cartridge can be assembled into the positioning portion 21. At this time, the fixture member 20 can position the ink cartridge on the fixture member 20 through the positioning portion 21, thereby positioning the chip 13 and preventing the ink cartridge from moving during the removal process. At the same time, the ink cartridge is exposed to the outside through the opening of the positioning portion, and the chip on the ink cartridge is also exposed to the outside. Then, a force is applied to the force applying portion 40, causing it to push the ink cartridge toward the removal portion 30, thereby removing the chip assembly through the removal portion 30.

[0246] The chip removal fixture 2 of this embodiment drives the ink cartridge 1 to move toward the disassembly portion 30 on the fixture component 20 through the force-applying portion 40, so that the chip 13 and the chip carrying portion on the ink cartridge can be removed. It has a simple structure and is easy to operate, which solves the problem of difficulty in operating the chip 13 on the ink cartridge 1 during installation or removal in the prior art, and greatly improves the reusability of the chip 13.

[0247] The positioning portion 21 has a positioning groove 21a extending along the length of the fixture 20. The chip removal fixture 2 also includes an inclined portion provided on the bottom wall of the positioning groove 21a and located at one end of the bottom wall of the positioning groove 21a near the force applying portion 40. When the ink cartridge 1 is accommodated in the positioning groove 21a, the horizontal height of the end of the ink cartridge 1 close to the force-applying part 40 is higher than the horizontal height of the end of the ink cartridge 1 close to the disassembly part 30. Therefore, when the ink cartridge 1 moves toward the disassembly part 30, the disassembly part 30 can disassemble the chip assembly along a preset inclined disassembly path, which is convenient for disassembling the chip assembly and separating the chip carrying part from the ink cartridge shell. At the same time, the disassembled chip carrying part is smaller and convenient for being recycled and installed again, and the disassembly along the preset inclined disassembly path will not damage the original ink cartridge. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient, which solves the problem of difficult operation during the chip disassembly process on the ink cartridge in the prior art, shortens the disassembly time, improves the disassembly efficiency, saves time and effort, and the chip disassembly fixture structure is relatively simple, and the manufacturing difficulty and manufacturing cost are relatively low, which greatly improves the reusability of the chip.

[0248] In the above description, the preset inclined disassembly path is formed by the inclined movement of the ink cartridge. In other embodiments, the preset inclined disassembly path can also be formed by the disassembly part being set inclined, wherein the direction of the preset inclined disassembly path intersects with the axial direction of the force-applying part. The preset inclined disassembly path direction refers to the cutting path direction of the disassembly part cutting the chip assembly, and the axial direction of the force-applying part refers to the axial direction of the driving part of the force-applying part, which is the X direction in Figure 58.

[0249] As shown in Figures 59 and 61, in this embodiment, the chip removal fixture 2 further includes a rib 211c. The rib 211c is disposed on the bottom wall of the positioning groove 21a near the force-applying portion 40. The rib 211c is positioned at a higher level near the force-applying portion 40 than near the removal portion 30, thereby forming the aforementioned inclined portion. Furthermore, the length of the rib 211c is greater than or equal to the distance the ink cartridge 1 moves within the positioning groove 21a, thereby facilitating the removal portion 30 to remove the chip 13 and the chip carrier from the ink cartridge housing.

[0250] In some embodiments, the convex rib 211c can be higher at one end and lower at the other end. If it is higher at one end and lower at the other end, the end close to the force-applying portion 40 is higher and the other end is lower; or the convex rib 211c starts from low and becomes higher and higher, and the end close to the force-applying portion 40 is higher, that is, the horizontal height of the convex rib 211c gradually increases from the end away from the force-applying portion 40 toward the end close to the force-applying portion 40.

[0251] In some other embodiments, the rib 211c may not be provided in the positioning groove 21a, but the bottom wall of the positioning groove 21a may be provided in an inclined shape to form the above-mentioned inclined portion, as long as it is ensured that the chip and the chip carrier can be removed smoothly.

[0252] When the ink cartridge 1 is installed on the chip removal fixture 2, the ink cartridge is placed upside down into the positioning portion 21, with the bottom end of the ink cartridge 1 provided with the chip 13 facing upward. The first and second side ends of the ink cartridge 1 respectively abut against the inner peripheral walls on both sides of the positioning portion 21, restricting the movement of the ink cartridge 1 in the width direction of the fixture component 20. The top end of the ink cartridge 1, which is away from the chip 13, abuts against the rib 211c, causing the ink cartridge to be tilted in the positioning portion 21, that is, the end where the ink outlet 14 is located is higher than the end where the chip 13 is located, and the third side end near the chip 13 faces the removal portion 30. At this time, the ink cartridge 1 can move left and right along the length direction of the fixture component 20 within the positioning portion 21.

[0253] Continuing with reference to Figure 60, the chip disassembly fixture also includes a coupling portion 22d and a clamping portion 24. The coupling portion 22d is arranged at one end of the fixture component 20, and the coupling portion 22d is arranged perpendicular to the positioning portion 21. It can be integrally formed with the fixture component 20 or separately arranged. In this embodiment, the coupling portion 22d and the fixture component 20 are preferably integrally formed. The clamping portion 24 is clamped and arranged on the coupling portion 22d, and the clamping portion 24 is located above the coupling portion 22d. The disassembly portion 30 is arranged between the clamping portion 24 and the coupling portion 22d, so that the disassembly portion 30 can be detachably installed between the clamping portion 24 and the coupling portion 22d.

[0254] As shown in Figures 61 to 63, the coupling portion 22d includes a body 221c and a protrusion 221d. The body 221c is connected to one end of the clamp component 20, and the protrusion 221d is connected to the body 221c and located on the upper end surface of the body 221c. The disassembly portion 30 is provided with a first recessed hole 32c, through which the disassembly portion 30 is mounted onto the protrusion 221d of the coupling portion 22d, preventing the disassembly portion 30 from moving back and forth on the coupling portion 22d. The engaging portion 24 is also provided with a second recessed hole 241a at a corresponding position. The engaging portion 24 is mounted onto the protrusion 221d through the second recessed hole 241a, thereby stably fixing the disassembly portion 30 between the coupling portion 22d and the engaging portion 24, preventing it from moving in any direction.

[0255] Furthermore, the coupling portion 22d is provided with coupling holes 222b and grooves 223a. The coupling holes 222b are provided with two, but may also be provided with four, six, or other similar means, which are not specifically defined herein. The grooves 223a extend upward from the bottom of the coupling portion 22d but do not penetrate the coupling portion 22d. The engaging portion 24 includes a locking protrusion 242 and a hook 243. The locking protrusion 242 is capable of engaging with the coupling holes 222b. The locking protrusion 242 is provided in a position and quantity corresponding to the coupling holes 222b. The locking protrusion 242 is provided with two, but may also be provided with four, six, or other similar means. The hook 243 extends downward and is provided with a barbed hook 2431 at the extended end. The hook 243 is capable of engaging and abutting the groove 223a on the coupling portion 22d. Specifically, the barbed hook 2431 hooks onto the top of the groove 223a, thereby stably locking the engaging portion 24 to the coupling portion 22d, thereby ensuring that the disassembly portion 30 is stably fixed.

[0256] In this embodiment, the coupling portions 22d are provided on both sides of the positioning portion 21, meaning that the positioning portion 21 extends through the coupling portions 22d. The engaging portion 24 is further provided with a through-slot 244 at a position facing and corresponding to the positioning portion 21. The through-slot 244 extends upward from the bottom of the engaging portion 24 but does not extend through the engaging portion 24 in the height direction. As shown in FIG64 , the disassembly portion 30 is at least partially located between the positioning portion 21 and the through-slot 244, meaning that at least a portion of the disassembly portion 30 is exposed within the through-slot 244.

[0257] Continuing with Figure 62 , the disassembly portion 30 includes a blade head 33 and a blade body. The blade head 33 is mounted on the fixture component 20 . The blade head 33 is connected to the blade body and is located at the horizontal end of the blade body. The blade head 33 is positioned toward the force-applying portion 40 and has a wedge-shaped structure. In this embodiment, the disassembly portion 30 is preferably a blade, but the disassembly portion 30 may also have other structures as long as it can remove the chip and chip carrier. Preferably, the blade head 33 and the blade body can be integrally formed or can be separate.

[0258] In this embodiment, to facilitate chip removal from the ink cartridge, the disassembly portion 30 is tilted, with the end of the disassembly portion 30 distal from the force-applying portion 40 being at a lower level than the end of the disassembly portion 30 proximal to the force-applying portion 40, causing the cutting head of the disassembly portion 30 to tilt upward. For example, the angle between the disassembly portion 30 and the horizontal plane can be 0-30 degrees. Specifically, the cutting head can be tilted 0-30 degrees, the entire disassembly portion 30 can be tilted 0-30 degrees, the end surface of the disassembly portion 30 can be tilted 0-30 degrees, or other methods are described in detail here.

[0259] Specifically, an inclined portion may also be provided on the coupling portion 22d on which the disassembly portion 30 is installed, and the inclined portion is used to support the disassembly portion 30, and the horizontal height of the inclined portion at the end away from the force-applying portion 40 is lower than the horizontal height of the end close to the force-applying portion, or, the entire end face on which the disassembly portion 30 is installed on the coupling portion 22d is inclined to form an inclined portion, and the horizontal height of the end face at the end away from the force-applying portion 40 is lower than the horizontal height of the end face at the end close to the force-applying portion 40. In summary, the inclination direction of the inclined portion or the entire end face here is consistent with the inclination direction of the above-mentioned inclined portion.

[0260] In some other embodiments, the disassembly portion may be configured to be horizontal, and the chip disassembly fixture further includes a cutting portion that is movably connected to the coupling portion and capable of cutting the chip and the chip carrier in the height direction. The cutting portion may be integrally formed with the fixture component, or may be separate, or may be a separate component. When the chip and the chip carrier are disassembled to a certain distance in the horizontal direction, the cutting portion may be cut from the top in the height direction, thereby separating the chip and the chip carrier from the ink cartridge housing.

[0261] Continuing with reference to FIG61 , the clamp component 20 further includes a mounting portion 230, which is disposed on the clamp component 20 and is positioned relative to the coupling portion 22 d. A screw hole 230 a is formed on the mounting portion 230. The screw hole 230 a is disposed at the other end of the clamp component 20, which is opposite to the coupling portion 22 d, along the length direction of the clamp component 20. The coupling portion 22 d, the positioning portion 21, and the screw hole 230 a are sequentially disposed along the length direction of the clamp component 20, and both the coupling portion 22 d and the screw hole 230 a are connected to the positioning portion 21. The force-applying portion 40 is threadedly connected to the screw hole 230 a, allowing the force-applying portion 40 to move and rotate within the screw hole 230 a.

[0262] As shown in Figure 65, the force-applying portion 40 includes a driver 42 and a handle 41. The handle 41 is connected to the driver 42, and the driver 42 is threadedly connected to the screw hole 230a. The handle 41 can receive an external force to drive the driver 42 to move on the fixture component 20, thereby pushing the ink cartridge 1 to move and remove the chip 13. Specifically, the driver 42 is configured as a cylindrical structural member. The outer circumferential surface of the driver 42 is provided with a thread 421. The driver 42 is installed in the screw hole 230a through the thread 421 and the internal thread 231a in the screw hole 230a. The driver 42 can move and rotate in the screw hole 230a through the thread 421 and the internal thread 231 in the screw hole 230a. One end of the driver 42 connected to the handle 41 extends outside the fixture component 20, and the other end of the driver 42 passes through the screw hole 230a and falls into the positioning portion 21 and abuts against the second engaging portion 111 on the fourth side end of the ink cartridge 1. During use, the handle 41 can be rotated outside the clamp member 20, allowing the driving member 42 to rotate within the screw hole 230a. One end of the driving member 42 within the positioning portion 21 pushes the ink cartridge 1 within the positioning portion 21 toward the disassembly portion 30, allowing the disassembly portion 30 to remove the chip 13 and the chip carrier. In some other embodiments, the driving member 42 can also be a prismatic structure, which is not limited here.

[0263] Furthermore, the length of the driving member 42 can be set as required, so that the moving distance of the ink cartridge 1 is limited, and the distance at which the disassembly portion 30 disassembles the chip 13 and the chip bearing portion on the ink cartridge is also limited, that is, the position of the cutter head 33 on the disassembly portion 30 inserted into the shell of the ink cartridge is fixed. In addition, in some other embodiments, a limiter (not shown in the figure) can also be provided on the outer end face of the mounting portion away from the positioning portion 21, and the distance between the limiter and the outer end face of the mounting portion is set according to requirements. Specifically, the limiter is provided toward the handle and can abut against the handle 41. The limiter limits the further movement of the handle 41, thereby ensuring that the moving distance of the ink cartridge 1 toward the disassembly portion 30 is limited, and the ink cartridge 1 no longer moves. The disassembly portion 30 cuts the bearing portion where the chip is located from one end to the other end, thereby removing the chip and the bearing portion where the chip is located from the shell of the ink cartridge.

[0264] 66 and 67 , when the chip removal fixture of this embodiment is used:

[0265] First, the ink cartridge 1 is placed upside down in the positioning portion 21 on the clamp part 20 to stably position the ink cartridge on the clamp part 20 through the positioning portion 21. At this time, the ink cartridge 1 is exposed in the positioning portion 21, and the chip is facing upward and set close to the disassembly portion 30.

[0266] The handle 41 of the force-applying portion 40 is then rotated, causing the driving member 42 to rotate and move on the clamping member 20, thereby pushing the ink cartridge 1 within the positioning portion 21. The cutting head 33 of the removal portion 30 then moves along the tilted ink cartridge 1 to remove the chip 13 and into the ink cartridge housing, where the chip is located. The force-applying portion 40 is then further rotated, pushing the ink cartridge 1 further, until the handle can no longer be rotated. The removal portion 30 then cuts through the chip's supporting portion, allowing the chip and supporting portion to be removed from the ink cartridge housing.

[0267] In this step, if the carrier portion where the chip is located cannot be completely removed by the disassembly portion, the user can tear it off by hand or remove it with tools.

[0268] Finally, the removed chip 13 or the chip 13 and the chip carrier are mounted on the chip mounting portion of a new ink cartridge.

[0269] Example 8

[0270] As shown in Figures 68 to 70, this embodiment discloses another chip removal jig. This embodiment differs from the seventh embodiment in that: in this embodiment, the chip removal jig further includes an elastic engaging portion 512, which is disposed on the inner sidewall of the positioning portion 21. Specifically, one end of the elastic engaging portion 512 is connected to the inner sidewall of the positioning portion 21, and the other end is suspended in the air. The elastic engaging portion 512 can be elastically deformed in the width direction of the jig member 20, so that the chip removal jig can adapt to ink cartridges of different sizes.

[0271] This embodiment utilizes the provision of the elastic engaging portion 512 to accommodate ink cartridges of varying sizes within the disassembly fixture. When a small ink cartridge is placed within the positioning portion, the elastic engaging portion 512 remains positioned within the fixture, regardless of whether it is elastically deformed. When a large ink cartridge is placed within the positioning portion, the elastic engaging portion 512 elastically deforms and is pressed toward the inner sidewall of the positioning portion. The ink cartridge is positioned within the fixture due to the contact between the deformed elastic engaging portion 512 and the inner sidewall of the positioning portion.

[0272] In this embodiment, the elastic engaging portions 512 are set to four, two on each of the two opposite inner side walls, to ensure that the ink cartridge is stably engaged in the positioning portion. In some other embodiments, the elastic engaging portions can also be set to two, six, or more.

[0273] This embodiment achieves the ink cartridge positioning effect by fixing the ink cartridge in the positioning portion or providing an elastic locking portion in the positioning portion, which helps to improve the accuracy of the edge position of the disassembly bearing portion.

[0274] Furthermore, the chip removal fixture includes a crimping portion 245, which is connected to the engaging portion and disposed toward the second end portion 20b and is disposed obliquely downward along the side end portion of the engaging portion. When the ink cartridge moves toward the removal portion 30, the crimping portion 245 at least partially contacts the bottom end surface of the ink cartridge, facilitating crimping of the ink cartridge during removal and preventing the cartridge from moving in the height direction.

[0275] In some other embodiments, the crimping portion may not be provided, and the user may slightly press the ink cartridge with his hands during the disassembly process, or the crimping portion may not contact the bottom end surface of the ink cartridge. As long as the ink cartridge is ensured not to move in the height direction, the chip on the ink cartridge can be stably disassembled.

[0276] In this embodiment, when the chip removal fixture is used:

[0277] First, place the ink cartridge 1 upside down in the positioning portion 21 on the clamp component 20, and stably position the ink cartridge on the clamp component 20 through the elastic snap-fit ​​portion 512. At this time, the ink cartridge 1 is exposed in the positioning portion 21, with the chip facing upward and set close to the disassembly portion 30.

[0278] The handle 41 of the force-applying portion 40 is then rotated, causing the driving member 42 to rotate and move on the clamping member 20, thereby pushing the ink cartridge 1 within the positioning portion 21. The cutting head 33 of the removal portion 30 then moves along the tilted ink cartridge 1 to remove the chip 13 and into the ink cartridge housing, where the chip carrier is located. The force-applying portion 40 is then further rotated, pushing the ink cartridge 1 further, until the handle can no longer be rotated. The removal portion 30 then cuts through the chip carrier, allowing the chip and chip carrier to be removed from the ink cartridge housing.

[0279] Finally, the removed chip 13 or the chip 13 and the chip carrier are mounted on the chip mounting portion of a new ink cartridge.

[0280] In this embodiment, other structures and descriptions are consistent with those in the seventh embodiment and will not be described again here.

[0281] Embodiment 9

[0282] 71 and 72 , this embodiment discloses another chip removal fixture. The difference between this embodiment and the seventh embodiment is that the chip removal fixture of this embodiment further includes a first limiting portion 61 c and a second limiting portion 61 d.

[0283] 73 and 74 , the chip removal fixture further includes a first limiting portion 61c and a second limiting portion 61d. The first limiting portion 61c is disposed on the lower surface of the engaging portion 24, and the position of the first limiting portion 61c corresponds to the position of the positioning portion 21. The first limiting portion 61c protrudes toward the positioning portion 21. The second limiting portion 61d is disposed at the bottom of the positioning portion 21 and extends along the bottom wall of the positioning portion 21 in a direction away from the force-applying portion 40. That is, the second limiting portion 61d is located at one end of the bottom wall of the positioning portion 21 near the disassembly portion 30, so that the first limiting portion 61c and the second limiting portion 61d can limit the vertical movement of the ink cartridge.

[0284] Specifically, the second limiting portion 61d includes a connecting portion 621 and a plurality of protrusions 622. The connecting portion 621 is located at one end of the bottom wall of the positioning portion 21 close to the disassembly portion 30. The plurality of protrusions 622 are respectively connected to the connecting portion 621, and the plurality of protrusions 622 protrude toward the direction of the locking portion 24. The lengths of the plurality of protrusions 622 extend along the length extension direction of the positioning portion 21, and the plurality of protrusions 622 are spaced apart along the width extension direction of the positioning portion 21.

[0285] For example, for an ink cartridge with a relatively large positioning volume, such as a black ink cartridge, when the black ink cartridge is inverted in the positioning portion 21 and moves toward the disassembly portion 30 under the action of the force-applying portion 40, the first limiting portion 61c will abut against the bottom surface of the ink cartridge to limit the bottom end of the ink cartridge, and the ridge 622 of the second limiting portion 61d will abut against the top surface of the ink cartridge to limit the top end of the ink cartridge, thereby limiting the movement of the ink cartridge in the up and down directions through the first limiting portion 61d and the second limiting portion 61d.

[0286] It should be noted that the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion can limit the ink cartridges of all colors, but the limiting effect on the ink cartridges with large volume (black ink cartridges) is more obvious, making the disassembly of the chip and the chip carrier where the ink cartridge is located more perfect during the disassembly process.

[0287] Example 10

[0288] This embodiment discloses another chip disassembly fixture. The difference between this embodiment and the seventh embodiment is that the structures of the fixture components and the disassembly portion are different.

[0289] As shown in Figures 75 and 76, the chip removal jig includes a jig component 200, a disassembly portion, and a force-applying portion 40. The jig component 200 includes a positioning portion 200a, which is horizontally provided with a positioning groove 210. The positioning groove 210 at least partially penetrates the jig component 200 and is used to accommodate the ink cartridge 1. The disassembly portion and the force-applying portion 40 are respectively provided on the jig component 200 and are located at both ends of the positioning groove 210. The force-applying portion 40 is used to drive the ink cartridge located in the positioning groove 210 toward the disassembly portion, thereby removing the chip assembly from the ink cartridge through the disassembly portion.

[0290] As shown in Figure 76, the disassembly section includes a first disassembly component 30a and a second disassembly component 30b, which are respectively disposed at the same end of the fixture component 200. The cutting paths of the first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b intersect. In this embodiment, the cutting paths of the first disassembly component 30a and the second disassembly component 30b are perpendicular. When the force-applying portion 40 drives the ink cartridge toward the first disassembly component 30a, the first disassembly component 30a moves relative to the ink cartridge, cutting the chip assembly on the ink cartridge along a predetermined path. The second disassembly component 30b then drives the second disassembly component 30b to move, severing the chip assembly on the ink cartridge, thereby removing the chip assembly from the ink cartridge.

[0291] As shown in Figures 77 and 78, the chip removal fixture 2 also includes a coupling portion 211d and a clamping portion 240. The coupling portion 211d is provided on the fixture component 200 and is perpendicular to the positioning groove 210. The coupling portion 211d is connected to the positioning groove 210, and the positioning groove 210 passes through the coupling portion 211d. At the same time, the coupling portion 211d is also provided with a coupling plane 211b and a coupling hole 211a. The first removal component 30a is placed on the coupling plane 211b. The clamping portion 240 is engaged with the coupling portion 211d, so that the first removal component 30a is fixed between the clamping portion 240 and the coupling portion 211d. In some embodiments, the coupling portion 211d and the fixture component 200 can be integrally formed or separately provided. In this embodiment, integral forming is preferred.

[0292] Specifically, the locking portion 240 is provided with a locking protrusion 244a and a hook 242, and the locking protrusion 244a cooperates with the coupling hole 211a on the coupling portion 211d; the hook 242 cooperates with the groove on the coupling portion 211d, so that through the setting of the locking protrusion 244a and the hook 242, the locking portion 240 can be stably engaged with the coupling portion 211d, thereby ensuring that the first disassembly component 30a is stably fixed between the two, preventing the first disassembly component 30a from moving during the disassembly process.

[0293] In addition, an opening 241 is provided at the top of the engaging portion 240. The opening 241 faces the disassembly area of ​​the first disassembly component 30a, allowing for convenient observation of the disassembled chip through the opening 241. A limiting portion 243a is also provided on one end surface of the engaging portion 240, near the opening 241 and facing the positioning groove 210. When the chip and chip carrier are being disassembled, the limiting portion 243a limits the height distance of the ink cartridge, preventing movement of the ink cartridge in the height direction and further stabilizing the ink cartridge's position within the positioning groove 210.

[0294] Furthermore, a support shaft 260 is provided at one end of the coupling portion 211d near the positioning groove 210. The chip removal fixture also includes a mounting member 250, which is rotatably connected to the support shaft 260. The second removal component 30b is mounted on the mounting member 250. The second removal component 30b is used to cut the chip assembly cut by the first removal component 30a. In this embodiment, the second removal component 30b mounted on the mounting member 250 has the same structure as the first removal component 30 mounted on the coupling portion 211d, but the two removal components are arranged vertically, that is, the removal component mounted on the coupling portion 211d is horizontally arranged, while the removal component on the mounting member 250 is vertically arranged.

[0295] In some other embodiments, the second disassembly component 30b installed on the mounting member 250 and the first disassembly component 30a installed on the coupling portion 211d do not have to be arranged vertically, and may be intersecting; in addition, the cutting portion may not be provided, and the chip and the chip carrier portion may be disassembled by bending, but in this embodiment, it is preferably arranged vertically.

[0296] The mounting member 250 also includes a main body 251 and an operating portion 252. A support hole 253 is provided on one end of the main body 251. The support hole 253 is adapted to engage with a support shaft 260, allowing the main body 251 to be rotatably connected to the coupling portion 211d via the support hole 253 and the support shaft 260. The operating portion 252 is connected to the other end of the main body 251. By operating the operating portion 252, the mounting member 250 can be rotated about the support shaft 260, allowing the second disassembly component 30b mounted on the mounting member 250 to vertically cut the chip and the chip carrier.

[0297] In this embodiment, the second detachable portion of the mounting member 250 is also provided with a mounting hole, which is arranged corresponding to the support hole 253 on the mounting member. The mounting member and the second detachable portion are mounted to the support shaft 260 through the support hole and the mounting hole, and can rotate around the support shaft 260. In other embodiments, the second detachable portion may not be provided with a mounting hole, and the mounting member may be provided with a mounting groove for engaging the second detachable portion, or some other structure to ensure that the second detachable portion can be stably fixed to the mounting member.

[0298] In this embodiment, the chip removal fixture further includes a restraining member 220, which is removably mounted within the positioning groove 210. The restraining member 220 is provided with a receiving groove 222c for receiving the ink cartridge. The receiving groove 222c is enclosed by two side walls and a bottom wall. The inner circumferences of the two side walls are further provided with a plurality of ribs for positioning the ink cartridge for stable placement. The outer circumferences of the two side walls are provided with outwardly protruding latches 221b. There are two latches 221b, but multiple latches 221b may also be provided.

[0299] As shown in Figures 78 and 79, the positioning groove 210 is provided with a notch 212a and a snap-fitting recess 213a. The notch 212a is located at the bottom of the positioning groove 210 and close to the side wall, while the snap-fitting recess 213a is located at the end of the inner circumference of the side wall and is recessed toward the inner circumference. When the restricting member 220 is installed in the positioning groove 210, the two side walls of the restricting member 220 are respectively extended from the bottom of the positioning groove 210 through the notch 212a until the buckle 221b on the restricting member 220 snaps in place with the snap-fitting recess 213a in the positioning groove 210. At the same time, guiding protrusions 223b are also provided at the top ends of the two side walls of the limiting member 220. The guiding protrusions 223b are protruding from the top ends of the side walls to guide the limiting member 220 to be correctly inserted into the positioning groove 210. When removing the limiting member 220, it is only necessary to pinch the guiding protrusions 223b toward each other to disengage the buckle 221b from the engaging recess 213a.

[0300] When removing a chip from a smaller ink cartridge, the limiting member 220 needs to be installed in the positioning groove 210, and the ink cartridge is accommodated in the accommodating groove of the limiting member 220 to achieve stable positioning. When removing a chip from a larger ink cartridge, the limiting member 220 is not required and the ink cartridge can be directly installed in the positioning groove 210 to achieve stable positioning. By providing the limiting member 220 on the fixture component 200 in this embodiment, the chip removal fixture can be universally used for ink cartridges of different sizes, facilitating the replacement and positioning of ink cartridges of different sizes and improving the user experience.

[0301] In some other embodiments, some structures on the limiting member 220 may not be provided, as long as the use of the limiting member 220 is not affected.

[0302] In this embodiment, only one force applying portion 40 is provided, and its structure and the structures of other components are the same as those in the first embodiment, and will not be described in detail here.

[0303] As shown in FIG80 , when the clamp is disassembled in this embodiment:

[0304] First, install the first disassembly component 30a, the second disassembly component 30b and the force-applying part 40 on the clamp component 200 respectively, and install the ink cartridge 1 into the positioning groove 210 or the accommodating groove 222, so that the chip on the ink cartridge is exposed through the upper end of the positioning groove. At the same time, the two disassembly parts are aligned horizontally and vertically with the position of the chip respectively.

[0305] Then, rotate the force-applying part 40 until it abuts against the ink cartridge, and continue to rotate the force-applying part 40 to move the ink cartridge toward the horizontally arranged first disassembly part 30a, thereby disassembling the chip and the chip carrier on the ink cartridge through the first disassembly part 30a. When the first disassembly part 30a moves from one end of the chip carrier to the other end, press the mounting part 250 downward, and the second disassembly part 30b vertically arranged on the mounting part 250 cuts the other end of the chip at the connection with the ink cartridge shell in the height direction until the chip and the chip carrier are removed.

[0306] Finally, the disassembled chip 13 and the chip carrier are mounted on the chip mounting portion of a new ink cartridge.

[0307] Example 11

[0308] An embodiment of the present application discloses an ink cartridge that can be detachably mounted on a mounting portion of an image forming device. The image forming device may be a printer. The ink cartridge is used to provide ink to the printer. When the printer performs a printing operation, the ink in the ink cartridge will be displayed on the medium.

[0309] As shown in Figure 81, the ink cartridge 100 includes a shell 101, a chip mounting portion 102, a chip assembly 103, a handle portion 104, a first locking portion 105, and a second locking portion 106. The shell 101 is provided with an ink chamber and an ink outlet 107. The ink chamber is used to store ink, and the ink outlet 107 is used to discharge the ink stored in the ink chamber to the printer. The chip mounting portion 102 is provided on the shell 101 and is used to install the chip assembly 103. The chip assembly 103 is installed on the chip mounting portion 102. The chip assembly 103 can be a chip assembly 103 removed from the original ink cartridge, or it can be a brand new chip assembly 103. The handle portion 104 is connected to the shell 101 to facilitate the user to hold the ink cartridge and perform the installation operation of the ink cartridge. The first engaging portion 105 is connected to the handle portion 104 , and the second engaging portion 106 is connected to the housing 101 . The first engaging portion 105 and the second engaging portion 106 are used to engage with the printer so that the ink cartridge can be stably fixed on the printer to achieve ink filling.

[0310] As shown in Figure 82, chip assembly 103 includes a chip carrier 103d and a chip 103e. Chip carrier 103d is disposed on chip mounting portion 102 and has a first region and a second region. The thickness of the first region is less than that of the second region. Chip 103e is mounted in the first region and is used to store information such as the ink cartridge's manufacturer, ink level, cartridge type, and ink color.

[0311] As shown in FIG83 , the housing 101 has a rectangular structure and includes a bottom surface 101c, a top surface 101d, a first side surface 101e, a second side surface 101f, a third side surface 101g, and a fourth side surface 101h. The bottom surface 101c and the top surface 101d are disposed opposite each other, the first side surface 101e and the second side surface 101f are disposed opposite each other, and the third side surface 101g and the fourth side surface 101h are disposed opposite each other. The bottom surface 101c forms the side in the direction of insertion of the ink cartridge into the printer mounting portion. The chip mounting portion 102 and the ink outlet 107 are located at opposite ends of the bottom surface 101c. For example, the ink outlet 107 is closer to the second side surface 101f than the chip mounting portion 102, and the chip mounting portion 102 is closer to the first side surface 101e than the ink outlet 107. The handle 104 is obliquely disposed on the first side end surface 101e, the first engaging portion 105 protrudes from the handle 104, and the second engaging portion 106 protrudes from the second side end surface 101f. The second engaging portion 106 is closer to the ink outlet 107 than the handle 104. When the ink cartridge 100 is installed in the printer, the handle 104 and the second engaging portion 106 engage with the printer. Thus, the first engaging portion 105 and the second engaging portion 106 stabilize the ink cartridge 1 in the printer, enabling ink filling.

[0312] As shown in FIG84 , the chip mounting portion 102 includes a fixing portion 102a and a positioning engaging portion 102b. The fixing portion 102a is at least partially formed by a recess in the bottom end surface 101c. The distance from the end of the fixing portion 102a away from the ink outlet 107 to the upper end surface 101d is shorter than the distance from the end of the fixing portion 102a closer to the ink outlet 107 to the upper end surface 101d. The positioning engaging portion 102b is provided on the bottom end surface 101c and is located at the end of the fixing portion 102a away from the ink outlet 107. That is, the positioning engaging portion 102b is further away from the ink outlet 107 than the fixing portion 102a. The positioning engaging portion 102b is used to limit the position of the chip assembly 103.

[0313] The structural design of the chip mounting portion 102 of this embodiment enables the disassembled chip assembly 103 to be matched with it, which is convenient for installation, thereby allowing the chip assembly 103 to be used reasonably. In addition, the present application prevents the ink cartridge from damaging part of the structure of the fixing portion 102a when it falls by setting the fixing portion 102a at least partially as a recessed structure. At the same time, since the distance from the end of the fixing portion 102a away from the ink outlet 107 to the upper end surface 101d is smaller than the distance from the end of the fixing portion 102a close to the ink outlet 107 to the upper end surface 101, when the ink cartridge 100 is inserted into the mounting portion of the printer in the insertion direction, the positioning, engagement and fixation of the chip assembly 103 can be correctly guided, thereby improving the user experience and saving resources and costs.

[0314] Continuing with FIG. 84 , the positioning engaging portion 102b includes a positioning recess 102c and a limiting portion 102d. The limiting portion 102d is connected to the housing 101 and is located at the end of the fixing portion 102a away from the ink outlet 107. The limiting portion 102d is used to limit the movement of the chip carrier 103d. The positioning recess 102c is provided on the bottom end surface 101c and is located between the limiting portion 102d and the fixing portion 102a. It is used to install at least a portion of the chip carrier 103d that is not carrying the chip 103e.

[0315] In this embodiment, the limiting portion 102d surrounds three sides of the positioning recess 102c and is connected to the second side end surface 101f, the third side end surface 101g, and the fourth side end surface 101h, forming a three-sided enclosure. In other embodiments, the limiting portion 102d can also be provided only on the side of the positioning recess 102c away from the ink outlet 107, as shown in Figures 85 and 86.

[0316] In some embodiments, the positioning recess 102c may not be provided, but the limiting portion 102 may be provided directly, or the positioning recess 102c may be formed by a depression of the fixing portion 102a.

[0317] In this embodiment, the fixing portion 102a includes a fixing surface and an adhesive layer. The fixing surface is configured as an inclined surface, and the distance between the inclined surface and the plane of the bottom end surface 101c gradually decreases from the end farther from the ink outlet 107 to the end closer to the ink outlet 107. The adhesive layer is adhered to the inclined surface to adhere at least a portion of the chip carrier 103d to the fixing portion 102a via the adhesive layer. The adhesive layer can be formed by applying a fixing adhesive to the fixing surface. The fixing adhesive can be double-sided tape or other adhesive that meets the aforementioned bonding requirements.

[0318] In some embodiments, the fixing surface can also be set as a horizontal plane, the adhesive layer is bonded to the horizontal plane, and the thickness of the adhesive layer at the end away from the ink outlet 107 is less than the thickness of the adhesive layer at the end close to the ink outlet 107, so that the distance between the end of the fixing portion 102a close to the ink outlet 107 and the upper end surface 101d is greater than the distance between the end of the fixing portion 102a away from the ink outlet 107 and the upper end surface 101d.

[0319] In order to facilitate the removal of the chip assembly 103 when disassembling the chip assembly 103, the chip mounting portion 102 also includes a removal portion 102e, which is located on both sides of the fixing portion 102a, that is, the removal portion 102e is located on the third side end surface 101g and the fourth side end surface 101h, and the distance between the end surface of the removal portion 102e and the plane where the bottom end surface 101c is located is greater than the distance between the fixing surface and the plane where the bottom end surface 101c is located. Therefore, the setting of the removal portion 102e makes it convenient to remove the used chip assembly 103 from the chip mounting portion 102.

[0320] Based on the above, the present application also discloses a disassembly assembly, which includes a chip disassembly fixture and a new ink cartridge. The chip disassembly fixture can be the chip disassembly fixture described in the above embodiment. The chip disassembly fixture can be used to remove the chip assembly from the original ink cartridge so that the disassembled chip assembly can be installed on a new ink cartridge.

[0321] Based on the above embodiments, the present application further discloses a chip disassembly method, which can apply the chip disassembly fixture described in the above embodiments. As shown in FIG87 , the chip disassembly method includes the following steps:

[0322] S10. Place the ink cartridge in the positioning portion of the fixture component so that the chip assembly is facing upward and the end of the ink cartridge with the chip assembly is positioned close to the disassembly portion.

[0323] Specifically, after the ink cartridge is placed upside down in the positioning portion of the fixture component, the chip assembly is arranged upward, and the end of the ink cartridge provided with the chip assembly is arranged close to the disassembly portion.

[0324] S20, rotating the force applying portion to push the ink cartridge toward the disassembly portion through the force applying portion, so that the disassembly portion can disassemble the chip assembly.

[0325] Specifically, the handle of the force-applying portion can be rotated, causing the ink cartridge to move within the positioning portion toward the removal portion under the action of the force-applying portion, thereby enabling the removal portion to remove the chip carrier from the ink cartridge along the edge of the chip carrier along a preset inclined removal path, thereby separating the chip and chip carrier from the ink cartridge. After the chip and chip carrier are removed from the ink cartridge, the chip carrier and chip, or the chip, can be installed in the chip installation portion of a new ink cartridge.

[0326] The chip disassembly method of this embodiment realizes the recycling and reuse of the chip and the chip carrier, so that when the consumables stored in the ink cartridge are consumed, the chip and the chip carrier can be recycled, and the recycled chip and chip carrier can be installed in the installation part of a new ink cartridge. This not only makes recycling and reuse very convenient, but also saves costs and greatly improves the reusability of the chip.

[0327] In one possible implementation, before step S10, the chip disassembly method further includes: S00, installing the disassembly part onto the coupling part of the clamp component, and engaging the engaging part on the coupling part to limit the movement of the disassembly part in any direction through the coupling part and the engaging part, so that the disassembly part can be stably fixed between the coupling part and the engaging part, and at the same time installing the force-applying part into the screw hole so that the force-applying part can rotate and move in the screw hole.

[0328] In addition, before step S10, the chip removal method further includes the following steps: S01. To facilitate placement of the ink cartridge in the positioning portion, the force-applying portion may be rotated to a suitable position. The suitable position may be that the end of the force-applying portion's driving member, away from the handle, is within the screw hole, i.e., the driving member has not been screwed out of the screw hole near the positioning portion; or that the driving member has just been screwed into the screw hole; or that the end of the driving member, away from the handle, slightly extends beyond the end of the screw hole near the positioning portion, but does not affect placement of the ink cartridge in the positioning portion. If the force-applying portion is already in the suitable position during step S10, step S01 may not be performed.

[0329] Furthermore, before step S10, the chip disassembly method also includes: S02, if no limiting member is installed on the chip disassembly fixture, if a small-volume ink cartridge (first ink cartridge) is to be disassembled, the limiting member needs to be installed in the positioning portion first, and then the ink cartridge is installed upside down in the limiting member; if a large-volume ink cartridge (second ink cartridge) is to be disassembled, the ink cartridge can be directly installed upside down in the positioning portion; conversely, if a limiting member is installed on the chip disassembly fixture, and now a large-volume ink cartridge needs to be disassembled, the limiting member needs to be removed first, and then the ink cartridge is installed upside down in the positioning portion; if a small-volume ink cartridge is to be disassembled, the ink cartridge can be directly installed upside down in the limiting member.

[0330] Among them, in step S10, when the ink cartridge is placed upside down in the positioning part of the fixture component, the ink cartridge is tilted in the positioning part. The purpose is to disassemble the connection position of the chip carrier part and the ink cartridge along the edge of the chip carrier part according to a preset inclined disassembly path, so that the chip and the chip carrier part can be removed from the ink cartridge housing without damaging the ink cartridge housing, and at the same time, the accuracy of disassembling the connection position of the chip carrier part and the ink cartridge along the edge of the chip carrier part is improved to avoid damage to the chip.

[0331] After the chip assembly is removed from the original ink cartridge, the removed chip assembly can be installed on a new ink cartridge. Specifically, the chip mounting portion of the new ink cartridge includes a fixing portion and a positioning clamping portion. The fixing portion is at least partially formed by a depression in the bottom end surface of the shell, and the distance from the end of the fixing portion away from the ink outlet to the upper end surface is smaller than the distance from the end of the fixing portion close to the ink outlet to the upper end surface. The positioning clamping portion is provided on the bottom end surface and is located at the end of the fixing portion away from the ink outlet. When the chip and the chip carrier are installed on the chip mounting portion, the thinner end of the chip carrier can be located at the end of the fixing portion close to the ink outlet, and the thicker end of the chip carrier can be located at the end of the fixing portion away from the ink outlet. The chip and the chip carrier are limited by the positioning clamping portion.

[0332] In the above embodiments, the predetermined inclined disassembly path can be formed by the tilted movement of the ink cartridge or by the tilted arrangement of the disassembly portion. For example, the predetermined inclined disassembly path is formed by the ink cartridge being placed at an angle within the positioning portion, wherein the positioning portion is provided with ribs of successively increasing height, thereby causing the ink cartridge to move at an angle within the positioning portion. Alternatively, the disassembly portion itself may be tilted, the end surface on which the disassembly portion is placed may be tilted, or only the cutting head of the disassembly portion may be tilted, or other methods may be employed, all of which will not be described in detail here.

[0333] The handle of the force-applying portion is rotated clockwise to move the force-applying portion toward the ink cartridge. The rotation operation can be performed by an automated device to improve disassembly efficiency and save time and effort. Alternatively, the rotation operation can be performed manually.

[0334] Under the action of the force-applying part, the chip on the ink cartridge moves toward the cutter head close to the disassembly part, or the cutter head of the disassembly part moves in the direction close to the chip, realizing a feeding action, so that the cutter head of the disassembly part is gradually inserted into the connection position between the edge of the chip carrier part and the ink cartridge, and the cutter head gradually removes the chip carrier part from the ink cartridge along the edge of the chip carrier part according to a preset inclined disassembly path, thereby achieving the effect of the chip carrier part and the chip falling off.

[0335] The ink cartridge chip disassembly fixture disclosed in the present application positions the ink cartridge and the chip by providing a positioning portion, and applies a force to the ink cartridge through a force-applying portion, so that the disassembly portion acts on the chip-carrying portion, thereby separating the chip-carrying portion from the ink cartridge housing, and the chip and the chip-carrying portion on the ink cartridge can be disassembled. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient, which solves the problem of operational difficulty in the process of disassembling the chip on the ink cartridge in the prior art, shortens the disassembly time, improves the disassembly efficiency, saves time and effort, and the chip disassembly fixture has a relatively simple structure, and the manufacturing difficulty and manufacturing cost are relatively low, which greatly improves the reusability of the chip.

[0336] Furthermore, by providing an inclined portion in the positioning portion, when the ink cartridge 1 moves toward the disassembly portion 30, the disassembly portion 30 can disassemble the chip assembly along a preset inclined disassembly path, which facilitates the disassembly of the chip assembly and separates the chip carrying portion from the ink cartridge housing. At the same time, the disassembled chip carrying portion is smaller and is convenient for recycling and installation again, and disassembly along the preset inclined disassembly path will not damage the original ink cartridge. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient.

[0337] The chip disassembly fixture and chip disassembly method disclosed in the present application facilitate separation of the chip carrier and the chip from the shell of the ink cartridge 1, and then the disassembled chip carrier and the chip or the chip is removed from the chip carrier, and then installed in the chip installation part of the new ink cartridge, thereby realizing the secondary use of the chip, improving the utilization rate of the chip, helping to save the cost of the chip, and having good environmental protection.

[0338] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present application, but the scope of protection of the present application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present application should be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
