Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] The present invention relates to a recording paper feeding mechanism for a recorder.

In general, recorders are often used to record input signals and at the same time manually write notes and data, and a recorder that is relatively easy to write on is desired.

In addition, in order to protect recorded recording paper, a recorder that can store recorded recording paper inside the device has also been desired.

Therefore, various recorders have been proposed in the past. For example, in the recorder shown in Figure 1,
The unrecorded recording paper 6 is mounted on a recording paper mounting section 8 made of a profiled material frame 3 and a rear panel 5.
Driven by sprocket 2. Then, the recorded recording paper 6 recorded by the recording pen 1 moves along the profiled material frame 3 and is stored in the recording paper storage section 9 formed by the bottom plate 4 and the rear panel 5. At this time, if you wish to write notes, data, etc. at the same time as recording, move the rear panel 5 forward to the area drawn by the broken line, and configure the front panel as a recording panel to perform the writing. was. However, in this method, when configuring the front panel, the unrecorded recording paper 6 is removed from the recording paper loading section 8, the rear panel 5 is moved to the front to form the front panel, and then a new There was a drawback that the configuration could not be changed without reinstalling the recording paper into the recording paper loading section (not shown). Furthermore, Fig. 2 shows a case where the integrated bottom plate 4 and rear panel 5 are used.When it is necessary to write notes, etc., the integrated bottom plate 4 and rear panel 5 are used. A recorder configured to be removed and reinstalled in the opposite direction is shown. Although this method improved the recording paper attachment, it
This required the work of removing and reattaching the rear panel 5 and the rear panel 5, resulting in a major configuration change, which had the drawback of poor workability.

The present invention eliminates these drawbacks, and its purpose is to provide a recorder with expanded uses that can be changed into a recorder that allows easy entry of memos and the like by performing simple operations. There is a particular thing.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on an embodiment of the drawings.

FIG. 3 is a perspective view of essential parts of a recorder showing an embodiment of the present invention. That is, a pair of side plates 10 are placed parallel to each other, and the sprocket 2 is placed between the side plates 10, the profiled material frame 3 that constitutes the recording paper mounting section 8, and the rear panel 5, and together with the rear panel 5, the recording paper storage section 9 is constituted. A bottom plate 4 is provided. here,
11 and 12 are a front support part and a rear support part for supporting the bottom plate 4 on the side plates 10. The front support section 11 and the rear support section 12 have almost the same structure, and the respective support sections 11 and 12 have substantially the same structure.
The side plate 10 is provided with a hole or a recess that is one of the engaging members, and the bottom plate 4 is provided with a protrusion that is the other engaging member that engages with the hole or the recess.

Furthermore, remove the rear support part 12 of this bottom plate 4,
At the point where the bottom plate 4 reaches a vertical state by rotating approximately 270 degrees using the front support part 11 as a rotational fulcrum, the protrusion of the bottom plate 4, which is also the other engaging member of the rear support part 12, acts as the top support part 13 of the side plate 10. The bottom plate 4 is maintained in a substantially vertical state by being fitted into the recessed portion serving as the formed engagement member. Next, the operation will be explained using FIGS. 4 and 5, which are cross-sectional views taken along the line A--A in FIG. 3. In FIG. 4, an unrecorded recording paper 6 is first mounted on a recording paper mounting section 8 comprising a profiled frame 3 and a rear panel 5. As shown in FIG. Next, one end of the recording paper 6 is attached to the sprocket 2. The sprocket 2 drives this recording paper 6. Here, the recording paper 6 that has been recorded by a recording pen (not shown) moves along the profiled material frame 3 and is stored in the recording paper storage section 9 that is composed of the bottom plate 4 and the rear panel 5. Ru.

Also, at this time, if it is necessary to write notes, data, etc., first take out the stored recording paper 6 from the recording paper storage section 9 and insert it into the rear support section 1 of the bottom plate 4.
The convex part of the bottom plate 4 is removed from the concave part of the side plate 10 by pulling it downward, and the rear support part 12 is made free. The front support part 11 of the bottom plate 4, which has a rotatable structure, is then rotated approximately 270 degrees, and the convex part of the rear support part 12 of the bottom plate 4, which serves as the front panel, is attached to the side plate 10. Upper support part 1
By fitting the front panel 4 into the recess 3, the front panel 4 is supported. This is shown in FIG. At this time, the recording paper 6 moves along the front panel 4, making it easy to write notes and the like.

Further, in this case, instead of rotating the bottom plate 4 from the beginning, it is possible to slide it forward once, then rotate it approximately 90 degrees, and support the bottom plate 4 in a substantially vertical position to serve as a front panel.

FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram showing this state.

The device shown in FIG. 6 is similar to the side plate 1 in the previous embodiment.
A slide groove 14 is formed between the front support part 11 and the rear support part 12 of 0. The two protrusions (the rear protrusion is shown as 15 in FIG. 6), which are the other engaging members provided on the bottom plate 4 described in the previous embodiment, are inserted into this slide groove 1.
4, and the bottom plate 4 is supported as a bottom plate.

In order to configure this bottom plate 4 as a front panel, remove the front protrusion provided on the bottom plate 4 from this slide groove 14, slide it forward as shown in FIG. 6, and then rotate it approximately 90 degrees. This can be realized by fitting into a recess formed as the upper support part 13 of the side plate 10.

Note that the drawings attached to this specification only show the case where folded recording paper is used, but when roll recording paper is used, there may be slight changes in the shape of the recording paper mounting section and the recording paper storage section. This can be achieved by adding .

As explained above, according to the present invention, the bottom plate and the front panel are common and can be converted to each other with simple work, which has the advantage of expanding the uses of the recorder.
