Abstract
A display of the size of paper stored in a paper tray of a printer is provided. The display includes at least one control plate capable of sliding linearly in a predetermined direction, installed in the paper tray to define the edges of the stored paper, a pulley wheel capable of rotating around one point, in one side of the paper tray, and linear/rotary movement converting means for converting linear movement of the control plate into corresponding rotary movement of the pulley wheel, in which a window is provided in the paper tray to show a portion of the pulley wheel, and paper size indicators are displayed in radially-divided regions of the pulley wheel to show the paper size according to the position of the control plate . Thus, the paper tray (30) need not be opened to check the size of the stored paper.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a display of size that is stored in the paper in the chopping machine sheet feed cassette, relate in particular to one and can make the user in the visiblity scope, watch the display of size that is stored in the paper in this sheet feed cassette.
Background technology
The representative type electrographic printer comprises as laser printer or duplicator: a laser scanning device that is used for forming electrostatic latent image on light-sensitive medium; The developing apparatus of this electrostatic latent image that is used to develop; One is used for the image that will develop and is transferred to transfer device on the page from this light-sensitive medium; With a sheet feed cassette that is used to deposit this paper.
Referring to Fig. 1 that normal printer is shown, the sheet feed cassette of being installed 20 main body of this chopping machine 10 relatively moves into or shifts out.
When chopping machine 10 when network links to each other with many Personal Computers, the paper of various sizes will leave in this sheet feed cassette 20.So, when the shared chopping machine of many users, before printing, the user must check the printer paper size whether with leave sheet feed cassette 20 in paper size conform to print mistake so that eliminate.
In routine techniques, need sheet feed cassette 20 is extracted out, is stored in wherein paper size with inspection from the main body of chopping machine 10.
Summary of the invention
In order to address the above problem, the purpose of this invention is to provide a telltale that is stored in the antiquarian in the chopping machine sheet feed cassette, this telltale allows the user sheet feed cassette need not be extracted out from chopping machine can check the size that is stored in the paper this sheet feed cassette in the visiblity scope.
To achieve these goals, the display of size that is stored in the paper in the chopping machine sheet feed cassette that is provided comprises: at least one is installed in this sheet feed cassette, can be along the control desk predetermined direction linear slide, that be used to limit this storage trimming edge; One can be in this sheet feed cassette one side, around the swivel mount of some rotations; Convert the corresponding straight line/rotating movement converting device that rotatablely moves of this swivel mount to a straight-line motion with this control desk, a window wherein is set in this sheet feed cassette, to show a position of this swivel mount, the paper size zone is displayed in the radially cut section of this swivel mount, to show and this corresponding paper size in control desk position.Straight line/rotation is rotated transfer device and is preferably included a metal filament that swivel mount is connected to control desk along predefined paths, with one restoring force is applied to the spring of this coiling direction wiry on this swivel mount, it is connected to a side and this sheet feed cassette one side of this swivel mount.With the relative straight-line motion of this control desk keep this tension force wiry,
Description of drawings
To make objects and advantages of the present invention become clearer to specifying of the preferred embodiment of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings, wherein:
Fig. 1 is the transparent view of common chopping machine;
Fig. 2 is the transparent view that is stored in the partly cut-away of the display of size of paper in the chopping machine sheet feed cassette according to of the present invention;
Fig. 3 is that the swivel mount of display of size of this paper of expression and the S. A. on the sheet feed cassette are through an interconnective view of wind spring;
Fig. 4 is the view of this swivel mount in the presentation graphs 2, and wherein the size area of paper is shown.
The specific embodiment
Referring to Fig. 2, in sheet feed cassette 30, be provided with first control desk 41 that to cut apart the paper storage area along the first direction straight-line motion and can be along perpendicular to the second direction straight-line motion of first direction, and second control desk 42 respect to one another and 43.
Row's guiding slot port 44 engagements on first control desk 41 and sheet feed cassette 30 bottom surfaces.Second control desk 42 and 43 also with these sheet feed cassette 30 bottom surfaces on row's guiding slot port (not shown) engagement.The distance that adjacent guiding slot port is 44 is the minimum miles of relative movement of first control desk 41.The window 33 that be used to show sheet feed cassette 30 in-to-ins, has preliminary dimension is set at the side that this sheet feed cassette 30 has the front side 32 of the grasps handle 31 that is used to pull out this sheet feed cassette 30.Window 33 can be a hole or be made of transparent material.
The swivel mount 46 that the S. A. 45 that can stretch out around the inwall 34a from a groove 34 of sheet feed cassette 30 rotates is set at the inboard of this sheet feed cassette of these window 33 back.
Straight line/the rotating movement converting device that rotates this swivel mount 46 as the straight-line motion with first control desk 41 is provided with a metal filament 47 and a wind spring 48, one end of metal filament 47 is connected to a side of swivel mount 46, its other end is connected to the side of this first control desk 41 back to paper, the end of wind spring 48 is connected swivel mount 46 and between the S. A. 45 on this inwall 34a, is used for relative to rotating of swivel mount 46 restoring force being applied to as shown in Figure 3 predetermined rotational positions, so that all keep the tension force in the metal filament 47 in any position of this first control desk 41.
This wind spring 48 can be replaced by an elastic.
The restoring force of wind spring 48 should be under the situation that does not move first control desk 41 this metal filament 47 of tensioning separately.
Roller 49 slides this metal filament easily.
As shown in Figure 4, display of size according to this paper, when and these sheet feed cassette 30 rear walls 35 and this control desk 41 between the corresponding paper size location of distance at this swivel mount 46 in the face of in the zone of this window 33 time, the user can see with this sheet feed cassette 30 in by the cooresponding paper size cue mark of paper size of first control desk, 41 controls.
Can be according to the position of the outward appearance of chopping machine and sheet feed cassette 30 and to swivel mount 46 and its window of facing 33 location.
Simultaneously, this paper size telltale is based on relative motion between this second control desk 42,43 and this swivel mount 46 and the relative motion between this first control desk 41 and this swivel mount 46.
As mentioned above, according to the display of size that is used for the paper that is stored in sheet feed cassette of chopping machine of the present invention, the size that is stored in the paper in the sheet feed cassette can be seen from the outside, does not therefore need to open the size that this sheet feed cassette just can be checked this storage paper.
