Referring to fig. 13, 15 and 16, the structure of the package of the present embodiment is described, in which a package 80 has a top surface 81, a bottom surface 82, and a front surface 83 and a rear surface 84 in its width direction, and has a left surface 85 and a right surface 86 in its length direction, a hollow accommodating portion 87 is formed by these six surfaces, an open end 88 is formed at the top surface 81 of the package 80, and a closed end 89 is formed at the bottom surface 82 opposite to the top surface 81. Specifically, the top surface 81 includes an outer lid 81a and an inner lid 81b which are folded over each other, and when both the outer lid 81a and the inner lid 81b are folded in a direction toward the outside of the package 80, an opening is opened at the top surface 81 of the package 80 for inserting the cartridge into the package 80, and then the inner lid 81b and the outer lid 81a are respectively folded in a direction toward the inside of the package 80 (E, F direction shown in fig. 15), and then the open end 88 is closed, thereby completing the packaging of the consumable cartridge. In the present embodiment, the operable portion 20 is an opening structure, and is disposed at the top surface 81 of the package 80, and is located on the outer cover 81a, specifically, the outer cover 81a is provided with the operable portion 20, the inner cover 81b is provided with the receiving portion 21 for receiving the chip package 810, the operable portion 20 and the receiving portion 21 can be overlapped with each other, and preferably, the area of the receiving portion 21 is greater than or equal to the area of the operable portion 20. In view of the simplification of the structure, the receiving portion 21 in this embodiment is an opening structure on the inner lid 81b, and when the inner lid 81b is folded back and closed in the direction E inside the package, the receiving portion 87 of the package 80 can communicate with the outside of the package 80 through the receiving portion 21 having an opening shape.

Referring to fig. 15 and 16, the packaging 80 of the present embodiment can be assembled with the consumable chip 110, the chip package 810 and the packaging 80, and after the consumable cartridge is loaded into the receiving portion 87, the packaging operation for loading the consumable chip 110 can be performed. The housing 811 of the chip package 810 with the consumable chip 110 (and the chip rack 120) is embedded into the receiving portion 21, and the two limiting portions 812 of the chip package 810 are overlapped on the opening peripheral plane of the receiving portion 21, so as to mount the chip package 810. Subsequently, as shown in fig. 16, the outer cover 81a is folded back and closed in the direction F toward the inside of the package 80, and the operable portion 20 on the outer cover 81a can coincide with the socket 21 on the inner cover 81b, and further coincide with the chip package 810 on the socket 21, and then the consumable chip 110 and/or the chip terminal 111 exposed on the chip package 810 is further exposed on the package 810 through the operable portion 20. Moreover, since the area of the operable portion 20 is smaller than the area of the receiving portion 21, the plane on the periphery of the operable portion 20 will press against the two position-limiting portions 812 that have been overlapped on the plane on the periphery of the opening of the receiving portion 21, so that the position-limiting portions 812 are sandwiched between the inner cover 81b and the outer cover 81a, thereby fixing the chip package 810. Thereafter, the outer lid 81a of the package 80 is further sealed by gluing, sealing, or the like, to complete the packaging of the consumable cartridge, as shown in fig. 13. Thus, consumable chip 110 and/or chip terminal 111 of developing cartridge 100 can communicate with the outside of package 80 through opening 818 and operable portion 20, thereby enabling consumable chip 110 located in package 80 and chip package 810 to be operated outside package 80 through operable portion 20. When data in the consumable chip 110 needs to be read and written, the electrical connection terminals (on which electrical connection structures such as contact pins are arranged) on the data reading and writing device sequentially extend into the operable portion 20 of the opening structure and the receiving portion 21 of the opening structure, and then are electrically connected with the chip terminals 111 on the consumable chip 110 of the consumable box. It is understood that the peelable portions having different structures as those in the third and fourth embodiments may also be disposed on the operable portion 20 in this embodiment, and details are not described herein.

Example ten

On the basis of the above embodiments, this embodiment further provides another package structure, wherein an identification portion is further disposed on an outer surface of the package, when an electrical connection structure such as a contact pin in an electrical connection terminal on the data read/write device corresponds to an arrangement of chip terminals of a consumable chip located in the package, for example, a plurality of contact pins contact with the plurality of chip terminals one-to-one to form an electrical connection, the arrangement of the plurality of contact pins on the electrical connection terminal and the arrangement of the plurality of chip terminals on the consumable chip respectively have a sequence requirement, and thus a direction requirement is generated for the corresponding operation of the electrical connection terminal of the data read/write device and the whole consumable chip. The identification part can be identified so that the data storage part is electrically connected with external data reading and writing equipment with accuracy, namely the identification part is used for achieving the function of direction calibration between the packaging piece and the data reading and writing equipment, the situation that in the batch operation process, the electric connection end on the data reading and writing equipment is reversely connected with the chip terminal due to the fact that the packaging piece is placed in the reverse direction is avoided, the direct accuracy of reading and writing operation is guaranteed, and therefore the complex operation that the direction of the packaging piece or the data reading and writing equipment is adjusted after the electric connection end and the chip terminal are reversely connected is not needed.

Next, the structure of the first embodiment is explained as an example, and as shown in fig. 21, the identification portion 26 is added to the structure of the package 10, and the position of the identification portion 26 is not particularly limited, and is preferably located around the operable portion 20. The identification portion 26 in the present embodiment is disposed at a portion of the operable portion 20 close to the top surface 11, i.e., above the operable portion 20. The structure and shape of the identification part 26 may be an identification opening structure as shown in fig. 22a, may be a shape having directivity such as a triangle, or may be another shape having specificity, and the identification part 26 may be integrally formed with the operable part 20 by cutting or may be separately formed by cutting; further, the identification portion may be provided as an identification portion 26' as shown in fig. 22b, which is a structure that can be scan-identified by a triangle, an arrow, or other pattern formed on the package 10 by printing or the like.

In the present embodiment, the orientation calibration of the identification portion 26 is specifically performed by a photographing/scanning operation of the package.

Further, the embodiment also provides a method for reading and writing a chip in a packaged consumable box (packaging assembly), which is implemented by the following steps:

placing the packaging assembly in an operation station;

identifying the position of the packaging assembly, and judging whether the position of the packaging assembly relative to the operating platform and/or the position of the packaging assembly relative to the data reading and writing equipment needs to be adjusted or not according to the identification result;

the data storage section and the data read/write device are electrically connected through the operable section.

Specifically, on the operation table, the packaging component is provided with a preset placing position so that the data storage part and the data reading and writing equipment can be electrically connected;

when the position of the packaging assembly is identified, the judgment result is yes when the packaging assembly is identified to be placed at the preset placing position, and the judgment result is no when the packaging assembly is identified not to be placed at the preset placing position.

More specifically, when the judgment result is yes, the data storage part is electrically connected with the data reading and writing equipment;

and when the judgment result is 'no', adjusting the position of the operating platform and/or the packaging assembly until the judgment result is 'yes', or adjusting the position of the data reading and writing equipment until the judgment result is 'yes'.

The more specific operation steps are as follows:

(1) placing a packaging piece (packaging component) at least packaging a consumable chip on an operation table for reading and writing the chip;

as shown in fig. 23, after the developing cartridge 100 is packaged by the packaging member 10, the chip 110 and/or the chip terminal 111 can be exposed at the operable portion 20, wherein the packaging of the developing cartridge 100 by the packaging member 10 may be, for example, as in the first embodiment, directly accommodating and placing the developing cartridge 100 by the packaging member 10, or, as in the second embodiment, the developing cartridge 100 is packaged by a packaging member such as the packaging member 30, which is not limited herein. The packaging of at least the consumable chip means that when the consumable chip and the consumable cartridge are separately and independently packaged, for example, the consumable chip and the consumable cartridge are separately and independently packaged on the basis of the fifth embodiment.

Taking the package 10 in the first embodiment as an example, as shown in fig. 24a and 24b, the package 10 is placed on an operation table P for chip reading and writing operations, the operation table P is a table top capable of rotating around a rotation axis (not shown), and the rotation of the operation table P may be controlled automatically or manually, which is not limited herein. The placing position of the package 10 on the operation table can be fixed by a tool or by designing an alignment structure on the operation table, so that the package 10 is firmly clamped on the operation table P, and the package 10 is ensured to keep a standard position (alignment position) in the operation table P, which is beneficial to aligning the data read-write device with the consumable chips 110 in the package 10 during subsequent read-write operation, especially under the condition of batch operation of a plurality of packages 10 at least packaged with consumable chips. In this embodiment, the standard position is a direction in which, after the package 10 is placed on the operation table P, the side of the package 10 on which the operable portion 20 is disposed is placed upward relative to the plane on which the operation table P is located, and the consumable chip 110 located in the package 10 is substantially aligned with the electrical connection end of the data reading and writing device, and when the chip terminals 111 of the chip 110 and the electrical connection end of the data reading and writing device have an orientation requirement, the standard position further includes a placement mode of the package 10 to achieve a correct arrangement order of the chip terminals 111.

(2) Taking a photograph/scan of the package;

the data reading and writing device can have a photographing/scanning function or can be additionally provided with a photographing/scanning device to be matched with the data reading and writing device for use, before the data reading and writing device performs reading and writing operation on the chip, the data reading and writing device or the photographing/scanning device performs photographing or scanning on the package placed on the operation table P at the operable part of the package to obtain a picture at the operable part for the next operation. Specifically, the screen at the operable portion includes an identification portion located around the operable portion.

(3) Identification operation to obtain identification result

According to the picture obtained by photographing or scanning in the step (2), it is identified whether the position (including the direction) where the package is placed on the operation table P is correct, that is, whether the package is at the preset placement position, and the identification operation in this step may be performed by electronic recognition by an electronic processing device or the like, or may be performed by manual recognition by manual observation or the like. In this embodiment, the correct position (the preset position) of the package is the correct position of the identification part 26, which means that the entire correspondence between the power connection terminal of the data read/write device and the consumable chip in the package is in a consistent state, so as to ensure that the arrangement of the plurality of contact pins on the power connection terminal and the arrangement of the plurality of chip terminals on the consumable chip are correct, and thus the subsequent data read/write operation is not wrong. Specifically, the correct position of the recognition unit 26 is such that the recognition unit 26 is located above the operable unit 20 in the screen acquired facing the operable unit 20; if the recognition unit 26 is located at another position of the operable unit 20 (left, right, or lower side of the operable unit 20) in the acquired frame, it is a wrong position, that is, the package is placed at the wrong position. The information of the correct position of the recognition portion may be set in the electronic processing device in advance, or may be manually specified, or the information of the correct position may be flexibly specified according to different requirements, for example, the recognition portion 26 is set in the acquired picture to be the correct position below the operable portion 20, and is set to be the wrong position at other positions (left side, right side or upper side of the operable portion 20) of the operable portion 20, which is not limited herein. Thereby achieving the orientation calibration function of the recognition portion 26.

(4) Outputting an instruction to the recognition result

When the result (judgment result) of the recognition operation obtained in the step (3) is that the recognition part 26 is detected to be located at the correct position (preset placement position), the next operation can be directly performed; when the recognition result is that the recognition part 26 is detected to be located at the wrong position, the orientation of the data reading and writing device is adjusted or the orientation of the package and/or the operation table P is adjusted to correct the position, for example, the position of the package assembly relative to the operation table can be adjusted to be at least one of rotating and/or moving the operation table and the package assembly; adjusting the position of the packaging component relative to the data reading and writing device can be rotating and/or moving the data reading and writing device. In view of convenience of operation, it is preferable to adjust the orientation of the data reading/writing device (rotate and/or move the data reading/writing device), and the electrical connection end of the data reading/writing device can be held and controlled by an automatic device, for example, the electrical connection end of the data reading/writing device is controlled to rotate, so that the arrangement sequence of the contact pin(s) in the data reading/writing device satisfies the arrangement sequence corresponding to the chip terminal(s) in the packaging. At this point, the next operation can be performed.

When the package and/or the orientation of the console P are adjusted to achieve the position update, it is preferable to directly rotate the console P to adjust the package and/or the orientation of the console P so that the recognition portion 26 is located at the correct position in the picture during photographing/scanning, as shown in fig. 24a, the package is initially placed incorrectly, the recognition portion 26 is located below the operable portion 20, and after the recognition result is detected, the console P is rotated 180 degrees along the arrow M, so that the console P and the packages thereon are located as shown in fig. 24 b. At this time, it is detected again that the recognition part 26 is located at the correct position in the picture under photographing/scanning, and the next operation can be performed. In particular, when the rotation of the operation table P is controlled automatically, the adjustment work is more efficient. As shown in fig. 24a and 24b, the operable portion 20 and the identification portion 26 are arranged on the package in a mirror symmetry manner, and are located at the middle of the plane, and when the operable portion 20 and the identification portion 26 are arranged on the package in a non-mirror symmetry manner, for example, when the plane is arranged at one end (as shown in fig. 21), the operable portion 20 and the identification portion 26 in the picture of the retaking/scanning will be located at the other end of the plane after the operation table P is rotated 180 degrees along the arrow M, and at this time, the position of the data reading/writing device is moved to the other end.

Further, when the step (3) is manual identification, the identification result judgment and the adjustment of the orientation of the data reading and writing equipment, or the adjustment of the orientation of the package and/or the operation table P, or the next operation can be carried out by manual operation; when the step (3) is electronic identification, the identification result in the step can be subjected to error reporting prompt by sound, light and the like, so that subsequent adjustment of the orientation of the data reading and writing equipment, adjustment of the orientation of the package and/or the operation table P and next operation can be automatically controlled manually or by related electronic and electric control equipment. Or the direction of the data reading and writing equipment can be directly and automatically adjusted after the error position is found without error prompt, or the direction of the package and/or the operation table P is adjusted and then the next operation is carried out, so that the working efficiency is improved.

(5) Chip read-write operation

After the next operation is completed in the step (4), the state that the electric connection end of the data reading and writing equipment and the consumable chip in the packaging piece are aligned is represented, the electric connection end of the data reading and writing equipment is contacted with the consumable chip in the packaging piece through manual or automatic operation, and the contact pins (a plurality of) are correspondingly contacted with the chip terminals (a plurality of) one by one to form electric connection, so that the reading and writing operation of the consumable chip is performed.

In addition, the steps (1) and (2) can be replaced by realizing the orientation calibration function of the identification part 26 by a structural mode, for example by using some kind of protruding structure on the data read-write device to match the structure of the open-like identification portion 26, when the data read-write equipment is inserted into the operable part 20 of the packaging member for chip reading and writing, the opening structure of the identification part 26 can accommodate the convex structure on the data read-write equipment, so that the electric end of the data read-write equipment can be smoothly inserted into the operable part 20 and is correctly contacted with the chip terminal correspondingly to form electric connection, if the package is not placed in the correct position, the raised structure on the data reading and writing device interferes with the periphery of the operable portion 20, preventing the electrical end of the data reading and writing device from extending into the operable portion 20, thereby making further contact with the chip terminals and preventing the electrical terminals from coming into contact with the chip terminals by mistake.

EXAMPLE eleven

As shown in fig. 25, on the basis of the above embodiments, a plastic film (not shown) may be disposed on the outermost surface of the package, and a covering member 27 may be further added outside the plastic film, where the position of the covering member 27 on the package corresponds to the corresponding position of the operable portion on the package, that is, the covering member 27 covers the plastic film at the operable portion. According to the structure of this embodiment, set up plastic envelope film at the package outermost surface, can satisfy specific customer's supply demand, pack the back to the consumptive material chip and the consumptive material box that do not carry out the data reading and writing promptly, set up plastic envelope film with sealed to in handling steam, pollutant etc. get into the package through the portion of can handling 20. When data read-write operation is performed, only the plastic packaging film on the surface of the operable portion 20 needs to be damaged, an operation hole is formed in the plastic packaging film, and after the data read-write operation is performed, a covering piece is attached to the operation hole in the plastic packaging film, so that complete and sealed packaging can be formed again. The cover may be a label member on which promotional or graphical information about the performance, quality, etc. of the consumable cartridge in the package may be printed.

In the tenth embodiment, when the chip read/write operation is performed in step (5), the electrical connection terminal of the data read/write device is brought into contact with the consumable chip in the package through manual or automatic operation, in which the data read/write device is directly used to destroy the plastic package film on the surface of the operable portion 20, so as to extend into the operable portion 20 and make correct corresponding contact with the chip terminal to form electrical connection, thereby forming an operation hole in the plastic package film, or the plastic package film on the surface of the operable portion 20 can be destroyed in advance to form an operation hole, thereby avoiding adverse effects of the plastic package film on the data read/write device, particularly on the reaction force at the electrical connection terminal. In particular, this design and operation is particularly suitable when the package is a blister pack structure, and particularly when the blister pack is made of plastic, and the plastic blister pack is provided with a plastic film and the plastic film on the surface of the operable portion 20 is damaged directly by using a data reading and writing device, so that the design and production of the blister pack are more reasonable and optimized.

After the data reading and writing operation is completed, after the step (5) in the tenth embodiment, the operation of setting the covering part in the step (6) is added, after the data reading and writing device is removed from the package, the operation hole is left in the plastic packaging film on the surface of the operable part 20, and at this time, the label is added to be used as the covering part to cover the operation hole, so that the complete and sealed package can be formed.

In the first to eleventh embodiments, the structure of the operable portion, which is an opening provided in the package, is taken as an example for the corresponding description or is extended to other embodiments for corresponding expansion. However, the operable portion is not limited to the structure of the opening, and can be adjusted according to the type of the component to be packaged in the package or the use environment. When the component to be packaged is a developing cartridge or an ink cartridge, the arranged operable portion is different from the above-mentioned embodiment, and the following description will be made by taking another package formed by a structural cooperation manner in which the operable portion is arranged as an electrical contact member as an example:
