Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an applicator which corrects erroneous writing or forms a glue surface by transferring a correction paint, a paste or the like applied on a transfer tape.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, an applicator made by correcting a correction error or the like by transferring a correction paint or the like applied on a transfer tape, has a correction paint transfer tape not used in the applicator body. A pancake composed of a supply reel for winding the unused correction paint transfer tape and a take-up reel for winding the used correction paint transfer tape are rotatably mounted on the pancake. The cake and the take-up reel are interlocked with each other through the meshing of gears that are integrally mounted on each other, and the take-up reel rotates through the meshing of the gears due to the rotation of the pancake color that forms the pancake. However, in general, the corrected paint transfer tape that has been used after being supplied from the pancake and passing through the printer head can be reliably taken up on the take-up reel. .

[0003]

However, in the conventional apparatus described above, a pancake for winding an unused correction paint transfer tape in the applicator body and a used correction paint transfer tape are mounted on each rotating shaft. The pancake and the take-up reel are linked with each other via the meshing of the gears that are integrally mounted together with the pancake and the take-up reel, and the used pancake and the take-up reel are used while supplying an unused corrected paint transfer tape. When the paint transfer tape is wound up, the thickness of the applicator body is such that the pancake and the take-up reel are arranged side by side, and the pancake and the take-up reel are linked. Although it is possible to make it relatively thin including the gear that meshes with it,
By arranging the pancake and the take-up reel in parallel with each other including the gears that mesh with each other, there is a problem that the area in the vertical direction or the horizontal direction is increased.

Also, in order to rotate a pancake color and a take-up reel which constitute a pancake, gears which are integrally mounted are required, and the number of parts is large and the structure becomes complicated. In addition, the workability in the manufacturing process is reduced and the manufacturing cost is increased.

[0005] Further, when the take-up reel formed by winding up the used pancake and the used modified paint transfer tape is to be replaced, the pancake and the take-up reel are each removed from the rotating shaft, and then the new take-up reel is removed. Is required to be mounted on the rotating shaft, so that the replacement operation requires much labor.

Accordingly, the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and to reduce the number of parts.
By simplifying the structure, it is intended to reduce the size of the applicator itself and to facilitate the replacement operation.

[0007]

The reel body is rotatably mounted on a reel shaft on which a take-up reel fitting claw is provided at the end with respect to a rotating shaft erecting from the wall surface, and the pancake, the take-up reel and the lower case are opened. A cartridge body is constituted by an outwardly protruding printer head, and a pancake fitting claw and a take-up reel fitting claw of a spring locking body projecting radially from the reel shaft are respectively defined as a pancake color. The pancake and the take-up reel are integrally driven by being fitted to the take-up reel.

[0008] The applicator main body is composed of a lower case integrally formed with an opening, and an upper case integrally formed with a mounting base and a printer head together with a tongue piece inserted into the opening of the lower case. After the reel body is rotatably mounted on a rotating shaft erecting from the inner wall surface of the lower case, the pancake and the take-up reel are coaxially arranged on a mounting base integrally forming the printer head of the upper case. Then, the take-up reel fitting claw and the pancake fitting claw projected from the reel shaft in the radial direction are fitted to the take-up reel and the pancake color, respectively, so that the pancake is wound. The take-up reel is driven integrally.
