Conventional recording paper receivers are prepared for each width of roll-shaped recording paper, and a receiver for recording paper that matches the size is replaced when necessary according to the paper size information from the sender. The position f of the recording paper relative to the recording head was set accurately.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

As mentioned above, conventional recording paper receivers are installed depending on the width of the roll of recording paper, and are replaced when necessary. The problem is that you need a place to store the containers because they are prepared for each occasion.

In addition, in the case of a single receiver, it takes a lot of time and effort to determine the position of the recording paper, and there is a problem that incorrect placement may result in incomplete reception.

An object of the present invention is to provide a recording paper receiver that solves the above-mentioned problems. [Means for solving the problems] The recording paper receiver according to the present invention is capable of recording roll-shaped paper by inserting a supporter into the recording paper receiver. It has a guide hole for positioning the paper.

The guide hole is provided with at least one reed in a wall extending vertically substantially parallel to the rotation axis of the recording paper disposed in the receiver, and having an opening at least in an upper portion substantially perpendicular to the rotation axis. It forms a substantially straight cylinder shape with a non-circular cross section.

The support basically has a guide base and a guide, and the guide base is inserted into the guide hole to form a non-rotatable stone pillar shape. Further, the guide tool having at least one part is fixed to the guide board at least in one place, and when the guide base is inserted into the guide hole, at least one surface thereof is approximately aligned with the rotation axis of the roll-shaped recording paper. It is on a vertical plane and is almost in contact with the 0-side plane of the 0-side recording paper.

Further, one shape of the guide tool included in the support is such that when the support is inserted into the guide hole, the plane is substantially perpendicular to the rotation axis of the recording paper placed in the receiver and includes the center line of the guide base. It is provided with a plane parallel to the central plane that is deviated from the central plane to be formed.

〔Example〕

Next, the recording paper receiver of the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, a recording paper 3o is placed in a recording paper receiver 10, and a 13 having a guide hole 11 and a guide groove 12 contacts and holds 30 feet of rolled recording paper.

The surface of the flat wall 13 is parallel to the rotation axis of the recording paper 30. There are three guide holes 11 and three guide grooves 12 on the left and right sides of the recording paper 30 at the center of the board 13, respectively. Guide hole 1
1 is in the shape of a rectangular column having a central axis parallel to the surface of a13 and perpendicular to the rotation axis of the recording paper 300, and a length direction parallel to the wall 13. The guide groove 12 is a groove perpendicular to the surface 77 of the wall 13 from the central axis of the guide hole 11, and forms a T-shape in cross section together with the guide hole 11. Thus, at the top of the wall 13 there is a single-shaped opening.

Three guide holes 11 on the left and right come out from the inside for A size paper, B4 size paper, and A3 size paper. These guide holes 1
1, the guide base column 21 of the support 2o is inserted from above.

The support 2o is formed by a guide base 21 and a guide 22. The guide base column 21 is inserted into the guide hole 11 and is a rectangular prism with substantially the same cross-sectional shape. The guide tool 22 forms a plane in the length direction at the center of the widest surface of the guide base column 21.
Together with 1, it forms a 1-shaped cross section.

When the guide bases 21 of the support 20 are inserted into the two guide holes 11 at the innermost A4 size positions, the guides 22 are almost perpendicular to the surface of the wall 13, and the distance between the two inner surfaces is approximately It will be 210mm A4 size. Therefore, the A4 size recording paper 3o is stored between the two guide tools 22 and its position is fixed.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing an example of a support 40 having a comb-shaped guide 42. FIG. In Fig. 2, the guide base 4 is further shaped like a square column.
1, the guide tool 42 is provided with a guide protrusion 43 that is approximately perpendicular to #1.

This support 40 has the same planar shape as the support 20 shown in FIG. 1, and can be inserted into the guide hole 11 shown in FIG. The number of protrusions is not limited as long as it is plural. Each is illustrated as a prism, but the shape may also be a cylinder, and the shape is not limited.

* In Figure 3, the support 60 is in an inverted U-shape, and the parallel portions are a flat plate-shaped housing with the n-guide base 61 and the guide 62, respectively. Therefore, the guide hole 51 of the recording paper receiver 50 can be a rectangular prism-shaped hole, and no guide groove is required. The cross section of the guide hole and the guide base may be other than circular, or the maximum diameter of the guide base may not be smaller than the minimum diameter of the guide hole, and the support may be of a non-rotatable shape.

FIG. 4 is a plan view showing an example of a support that realizes A size (210 mff1) and letter size (width 216 mm). The support 70 is attached to the guide base 71 via the guide base 71 that fits into the guide hole 11 in FIG. 1 and the curved portion 73.
The guide tool 72 is fixed to the central axis surface of the guide member 72. Music section 73
is located at a distance from the guide hole 11 to the surface of the wall 13, and moves the guide tool 720 surface in parallel from the central axis surface of the guide base column 71 (the surface formed by the guide tool 22 in FIG. 1). Therefore, the position of the guide hole for both A4f size and letter size is 4th.
As shown in Figure (5), the guide tool 73 is arranged inside the A4
For the width of the size, the guide tool 73t is shown in Fig. 4.
- They are placed on the outside and each set to a letter-sized width. When the guide tool 72 as shown in FIG. Somewhat different. One way to avoid this is to
There is a "mouth" shaped support 70 that has only upper and lower parts. Furthermore, if the curved portion of this shape is made larger, the number of guide holes can be reduced, and a support tool that can be used for both A3 size and B4 size, for example, can be made.

FIG. 5 is a modification of FIG. 3. FIG. 5(5) is a partial perspective view showing the guide hole 81t of the recording paper receiver 800.

The width direction of the long sword-shaped cylinder is approximately parallel to the rotation axis of the roll-shaped recording paper. FIG. 5(a) is a perspective view of a support 821 inserted into the guide hole 81.The support 82 includes a guide base 83 having the same shape as the guide base 21 shown in FIG. 84 indicates that the guide tool 22 shown in FIG.
Unlike the guide tool 62 shown in FIG. . Therefore, a plan view viewed from above shows an L shape. Figure 5 (C1 is a support 8 having a plane symmetrical shape to the support 82 shown in Figure 5)
A relative position diagram when arranged in a pair with 5 is shown. The two guide tools are located at adjacent ends of the guide base, and the distance between the inner surfaces is A4 size (210 mm). Figure 5 (I is a relative position diagram showing the case where the supports in Figure 5 (q) are swapped left and right. In this case, the guide is located at the far end of the guide base, so the inner surface distance is expressed as a letter size ( 216mm).

As explained in the above embodiment, the wall of the receptacle may have only a guide hole, and the support is not limited to the shape of a comb or an arc. The reason why the guide tool is coplanar on both sides is that it can be used even if it is inserted in the opposite direction or even if the left and right sides are completely interchanged, making it convenient and convenient.

[Effect of investigation]

As explained above, according to the recording paper receiver of the present invention, since it has guide holes for inserting supports that support the recording paper from both sides according to the width of the recording paper, it can be adjusted to fit the width of the recording paper. Small supports are easy to handle, and if you set the position of the guide holes to match a set of supports, all you need to do is insert one set of supports into the designated guide holes. The advantage is that one set of supports can be applied to a recording sheet of size.
