Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable to set a base paper easily and speedily and contrive to facilitate operation, by a method wherein an arcuate surface for deflecting a base paper toward the first feeding part by curving it is placed in proximity to a label-releasing body, and a guide is provided between the label-releasing body and the first feeding part. CONSTITUTION:The first base paper feeding part 8 comprised of a pair of opposed rollers 6, 7 is provided on the downstream side of the label-releasing body 5, and the second base paper feeding part 11 comprised of a pair of opposed rollers 9, 10 is provided on the upstream side of a printing part 4. Guide plates 14 provided with arcuate surfaces brought into contact with both sides of the leading edge of the base paper 1 are fixed to both sides of the label-releasing body 5, the spacing between which guide plates 14 is so determined that labels provided on the base paper 1 are passed therethrough. A plate form guide 16 for directing the base paper 1 between the rollers 6, 7 is fixedly provided on the downstream side of the label-releasing body 5. Further, a guide 17 faced to the guide 16 with the base paper 1 therebetween is provided.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Technical field of invention] The present invention relates to a label printer.

[Technical background of the invention and its problems]

Generally, in a label printer, a long backing paper with many labels pasted on it is sent intermittently in one direction to print on the label, and by bending the backing paper at an acute angle, the printed label is removed from the backing paper. Although it has peeled off, it is difficult to set the backing paper because the path of the backing paper is bent.

[Purpose of the invention]

The present invention has been developed in view of these points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a label printer in which a mount can be set extremely easily.

[Summary of the invention]

In this invention, the backing paper is transported by a first backing paper feeding section disposed downstream of the label peeling body and a second backing paper feeding section disposed upstream, and in this process, printing is performed on the label on the backing paper. The label is peeled off from the backing paper, but when setting the backing paper, the backing paper is sent to the printer section by the second backing paper feeding section 9, and the backing paper that has passed through the printer section is moved by an arcuate surface placed near the label peeling body. It is bent and changed direction, and then introduced into the first liner feeding section by a guide, and thus.

It has an M configuration so that the work of replacing the mount can be done easily and quickly.

[Actual example of invention]

An embodiment of this invention will be described based on the drawings.

(Su is a mount rolled into a roll. This mount (1
) is a plate-shaped platen (2) and a printer head (
3) and is pulled out to the printer section (4), and further,
A plate-shaped label peeling body (bent by 5 inches).On the downstream side of this label peeling body (5), there is a first liner feeding unit (8 ) is arranged.A pair of rollers (
A second mount transporting section (11) is arranged, which is made up of a pair of rollers (II) facing each other.The roller (6) is connected to a motor (not shown), and the fourth roller (6) is connected to a spring belt. The roller o1 is slowed down due to the diameter ratio and is slightly slower than the circumferential speed of the roller (G).

Therefore, the backing paper (1
) A guide plate tJ having an arcuate surface Q3 abutting both sides of the leading edge of the guide plate tJ is fixed. The spacing between these guide plates q4 is set to a size that allows the label αυ on the mount (1) to pass through. Further, on the downstream side of the label peeling body (5), a plate-shaped guide CIQ that guides the backing paper between the rollers (6) is fixedly provided. may be formed integrally.

Further, a guide αη is provided that faces the guide QQ with the mount (1) in between.

In such a configuration, when setting the mount (1), the motor is driven to rotate the rollers (6, 7, 9) 00, and the tip of the mount (1) is inserted between the rollers (9) αQ.

After that, the mount (1) is sent to the roller (9) αQ,
It comes into contact with the arcuate surface (6) and is greatly curved, and is further guided by the guide αQ and bites between the rollers <6) (7).

After that, it is sent in one direction by the rollers (6) and (7), but since the circumferential speed of the roller (6) is higher than that of the roller (11), the label peeling body (5) and the rollers (6) and (7) are The mount (1) that has loosened in between is tensioned as shown in the imaginary line in Figure 1.After being tensioned, the spring belt q'4 slips according to the load, so each roller (6) (7) (9
) (10 rotates at the same circumferential speed.

During printing, the mount (1) is intermittently fed while the mount (1) is being bent at an acute angle by the label peeling body (5). Published from between 0 and 0.

〔Effect of the invention〕

Since this invention is configured as described above, even if the path of the mount is bent, the arcuate surface, the guide, and the mount can be set easily and quickly, and the arcuate surfaces are opposed to each other with an interval that allows the label to pass through. Therefore, if it is fixedly picked up all summer, there is no need to move the mount after it is set, and the operation can be extremely simplified.

[Brief explanation of drawings]

The drawings show one embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 1 is a side view, FIG. 2 is a partial perspective view, and FIG. 3 is a partial front view.

Claims (1)

[Claims] A label peeling unit that bends at an acute angle a long mount on which a large number of labels are pasted at equal pitches is disposed downstream of the printer section, and a first mount feeding unit 9 is disposed downstream of the label peeling unit. At the same time, a second mount feeder 9 is disposed upstream of the printer section, and the label peeling section 11 (near the body faces the two bells at a distance that allows the two bells to pass therethrough, and abuts against the leading edge of the mount to feed the printer). Arc-shaped surfaces are fixedly disposed to change the direction of the mount paper passing through the first mount transport section, and the mount paper curved by these arcuate surfaces is A label printer characterized in that a guide for guiding to the mount paper feeding section is located between the label peeling body and the first mount paper feeding section.
