(26) The first locating component 31 includes a first inserting groove 311 and a first inserting portion 312. The first inserting groove 311 is formed in one of the fixed frame 1 and the movable frame 2. The first inserting portion 312 is arranged on the other one of the fixed frame 1 and the movable frame 2. The first inserting groove 311 has an opening. The shape and size of the opening are matched with the shape and size of the first inserting portion 312. The first inserting groove 311 may be inserted with or separated from the first inserting portion 312.
(27) The locking component 32 includes a clamping groove 321, a clamping portion 322, a limiting hole 323 and a first elastic element 324 (referring to
(28) In the present embodiment, the first inserting groove 311 and the clamping groove 321 are formed in the first side plates 13 of the fixed frame 1 at an interval, and the opening directions of the first inserting groove 311 and the clamping groove 321 form an included angle. In one or more embodiments, the opening directions of the first inserting groove 311 and the clamping groove 321 are perpendicular. Correspondingly, the first inserting portion 312, the clamping portion 322, the limiting hole 323 and the first elastic element 324 are arranged on the second side plate 23 of the movable frame 2.
(29) The opening direction of the first inserting groove 311 is consistent with or opposite to the opening direction of the opening 14. When the first inserting groove 311 is formed in the fixed frame 1, the opening direction of the first inserting groove 311 is consistent with the opening direction of the opening 14. When the first inserting groove 311 is formed in the movable frame 2, the opening direction of the first inserting groove 311 is opposite to the opening direction of the opening 14. In the present embodiment, the first inserting groove 311 is formed in the fixed frame 1, and the opening direction of the first inserting groove 311 is consistent with the opening direction of the opening 14.
(30) Referring to
(31) As shown in
(32) When the movable frame 2 is required to be removed from the fixed frame 1, for example, when the medium is jammed in the first input channel 8 or the second input channel 9, the clamping portion 322 is pulled to counteract the resistance of the first elastic element 324 and slide along the limiting hole 323, so that the clamping portion 322 is separated from the clamping groove 321. Then, the movable frame 2 is pulled towards a direction away from the opening 14, so that the first inserting portion 312 is separated from the first inserting groove 311 to separate the movable frame 2 from the fixed frame 1, thereby enabling the first input channel 8 and the second input channel 9 to be completely opened.
(33) The double-channel paper feeding mechanism provided by the present disclosure has the advantages of simple structure and convenient maintenance.
(34)
(35) The U-shaped hole 323 includes a first end and a second end. Under the action of the first elastic element 324, the clamping portion 322 may be stably maintained at the first end or the second end. When the movable frame 2 is mounted on the fixed frame 1, the clamping portion 322 and the clamping groove 321 are in a clamped state if the clamping portion 322 is located in the first end of the U-shaped hole, and the clamping portion 322 and the clamping groove 321 are in a separate state if the clamping portion 322 is located in the second end of the U-shaped hole.
(36) The limiting hole of the double-channel paper feeding mechanism provided by the present embodiment is the U-shaped hole. No matter the movable frame is mounted on the fixed frame or removed from the fixed frame, the clamping portion may stably stay at the first end or the second end without pulling the clamping portion all the time, thereby improving the usability of the double-channel paper feeding mechanism.
(37)
(38) The locking component 32 includes a rotation shaft 325, a locking hook 326 and a pin shaft 327. The rotation shaft 325 is pivoted with one of the second side plate 23 of the movable frame 2 and the first side plate 13 of the fixed frame 1. The locking hook 326 is fixedly connected to the rotation shaft 325. The pin shaft 327 is fixedly arranged on the other one of the first side plate 13 of the fixed frame 1 and the second side plate 23 of the movable frame 2. In the present embodiment, the rotation shaft 325 is pivoted with the second side plate 23 of the movable frame 2. The pin shaft 327 is fixedly arranged on the first side plate 13 of the fixed frame 1. The locking hook 326 of the locking component 32 may be in clamping fit with or separated from the pin shaft 327. When the movable frame 2 is mounted on the fixed frame 1, the locking hook 326 is in clamping fit with the pin shaft 327. In one or more embodiments, two locking hooks 326 are arranged, and two pin shafts 327 are arranged. The rotation shaft 325 extends along the width direction of the channel. The rotation shaft 325 is pivoted to the second side plates 23 of the fixed frame and the movable frame at the same time. The two locking hooks 326 are fixedly connected to both ends of the rotation shaft 325 respectively, and the two pin shafts 327 are respectively arranged on the two first side plates 13. In one or more embodiments, the locking component 32 further includes an elastic element and a wrench. When the movable frame 2 is mounted on the fixed frame 1, the elastic element enables the locking hooks 326 to be in clamping fit with the pin shafts 327. The wrench is configured to rotate the rotation shaft 325 to enable the locking hooks 326 to be in clamping with or separated from the pin shafts 327.
(39) When the movable frame 2 is required to be mounted on the fixed frame 1, the movable frame 2 aims to the opening 14 of the fixed frame 1 at first, and then the movable frame 2 is moved to enable the first inserting portion 312 to be in inserting fit with the first inserting groove 311. Then, the rotation shaft 325 is rotated towards the pin shafts 327 to enable the locking hooks 326 to be in clamping fit with the pin shafts 327, thereby keeping the movable frame 2 and the fixed frame 1 in fixed connection. When the movable frame 2 is required to be removed from the fixed frame 1, the rotation shaft 325 is rotated towards a direction away from the pin shafts 327 at first to enable the locking hooks 326 to be separated from the pin shafts 327, thereby separating the movable frame 2 from the fixed frame 1.
(40) The first end of the double-channel paper feeding mechanism provided by the present embodiment is connected in a manner of inserting the inserting groove and the inserting portion, and the second end is connected in a manner of clamping the locking hooks and the pin shafts. During maintenance, it only needs to rotate the rotation shaft to separate the locking hooks from the pin shafts, and then the movable frame is pulled to open the channels, facilitating the maintenance.
(41)
(42) The second locating component 33 includes a second inserting groove 331 and a second inserting portion 332 which are selectively in inserting fit with each other. When the movable frame 2 is mounted on the fixed frame 1, the second inserting portion 332 is inserted into the second inserting groove 331. The second inserting groove 331 is formed in one of the fixed frame 1 and the movable frame 2. The second inserting portion 332 is arranged on the other one of the fixed frame 1 and the movable frame 2. In the present embodiment, the second inserting groove 331 is formed in the fixed frame 1, and the second inserting portion 332 is arranged on the movable frame 2. In one or more embodiments, the second inserting groove 331 is arranged between the first inserting groove 311 and the clamping groove 321, and the opening direction of the second inserting groove 331 is consistent with the opening direction of the first inserting groove 311.
(43) When the movable frame 2 is required to be mounted on the fixed frame 1, the movable frame 2 is moved towards the opening 14 at first to enable the first inserting portion 312 and the second inserting portion 332 to be respectively in inserting fit with the first inserting groove 311 and the second inserting groove 331, and then the clamping portion 322 is inserted into the clamping groove 321. When the movable frame 2 is required to be removed from the fixed frame 1, the clamping portion 322 is pulled at first to be separated from the clamping groove 321, and then the movable frame 2 is pulled towards a direction away from the opening 14 to separate the first inserting portion 312 and the second inserting portion 332 from the first inserting groove 311 and the second inserting groove 331 respectively.
(44) The second locating component arranged on the double-channel paper feeding mechanism provided by the present embodiment further improves the reliability of connection between the movable frame and the fixed frame, thereby improving the working stability of the double-channel paper feeding mechanism.
(45)
(46) The paper limiting mechanism 5 is arranged in at least one of the first input channel and the second input channel, and is configured to limit a position of medium in the input channel. The paper limiting mechanism 5 includes at least one paper limiting plate 51. The paper limiting plate 51 may move along a width direction of the input channel. In the present embodiment, the paper limiting mechanism 5 is arranged in the second input channel, and the paper limiting mechanism 5 includes two paper limiting plates 51 which are arranged along the width direction of the second input channel and separating from each other.
(47) In one or more embodiments, the paper limiting mechanism 5 further includes a threaded rod 52. Both ends of the threaded rod 52 are supported by the two second side plates 23 of the movable frame 2. The paper limiting plates 51 are provided with internal threads. One paper limiting plate 51 is sleeved to the threaded rod 52. The internal thread of the paper limiting plate 51 engages with the thread of the threaded rod 52. The threaded rod 52 is rotated to adjust the position of the paper limiting plate 51 along the width direction of the channel. In one or more embodiments, the threaded rod 52 extends out of the movable frame 2. The threaded rod 52 is fixedly connected with a rotating wheel 53. The rotating wheel 53 is rotated to rotate the threaded rod 52, thereby driving the paper limiting plate 51 to move along the width direction of the channel.
(48) In one or more embodiments, a buffer mechanism 6 is further arranged at an inlet of at least one of the first input channel and the second input channel. The buffer mechanism 6 includes a buffer roller 61 and a second elastic element 62. In the embodiment, the buffer mechanism 6 is arranged at the inlet of the second input channel. Both ends of the buffer roller 61 are inserted into long circular holes in the second side plates 23 of the movable frame 2. The first end of the second elastic element 62 is connected with the buffer roller 61, and the second end of the second elastic element 62 is connected to the movable frame 2. Under the action of the second elastic element 62, the buffer roller 61 always has a motion tendency of deviating from the second input channel.
(49) When the double-channel paper feeding mechanism works, the medium bypasses the buffer roller 61 and enters the second input channel 9. Under the action of the second elastic element 62, the buffer roller 61 gets away from the inlet of the second input channel, and a paper feeding path of the medium has a relatively long distance at this time. At the moment of paper feeding, when a subsequent medium may not move forwards immediately by inertia, then a pull force on the medium increases to counteract the action of the second elastic element 62 and force the buffer roller 61 to move towards the inlet of the channel, so that the distance of the paper feeding path is shortened and part of the media is released, thereby avoiding printing compression.
(50) The paper limiting mechanism arranged in the double-channel paper feeding mechanism provided by the present embodiment enables to adjust the position of the medium along the width direction of the channel, so that the adaptability of the double-channel paper feeding mechanism for medium with different widths is improved. The buffer mechanism further avoids the printing compression, so that the applicability of the double-channel paper feeding mechanism is improved.
(51)
(52) The sheet medium processing device provided by the present embodiment has the advantage of convenient maintenance due to the use of the double-channel paper feeding mechanism provided by the present disclosure.
(53) In the description of the present disclosure, terms first, second, third and fourth are only used for distinguishing descriptions, and do not have any special meanings.
(54) Above specific implementation modes are only optional embodiments and applied technical principles of the present disclosure.
INDUSTRIAL PRACTICABILITY
(55) The second portions of the two channel plates on the fixed frame of the double-channel paper feeding mechanism provided by the present disclosure form the opening for inserting the movable frame. When the movable frame is inserted into the opening, the movable frame is opposite to the channel plates on the fixed frame, thereby forming the two input channels. When the paper jamming occurs in the input channels, it only needs to relieve the connection of the connection mechanisms to draw the movable frame out of the opening to enable the two input channels to be opened completely, thereby conveniently eliminating the jammed paper. Therefore, the double-channel paper feeding mechanism provided by the present disclosure has the advantages of simple structure and convenient maintenance.
