In addition, the interference fit mentioned in this embodiment is the "strong interference" in the mechanical field, which means that the two objects match with each other so that they are relatively fixed to each other.

Referring to FIGS. 6 and 8, any one of the limit blocks 2 can be positioned along the guide between a first position shown in FIG. 6 and a second position shown in FIG. 8 relative to the guide 31 Movement direction D3 moves. In detail, when the limiting blocks 24 are in the first position, the abutment surfaces 21 are adjacent to the opening 115a of the first box 11 (see FIG. 2), and the guide 31 is located in the The second end 242 of the guide 24. With the pattern surface 71 facing upward, the character block 7 abuts against the top contact surface 21 of the limit block 2 at the desired position, so that the limit block 2 is pressed against the word block 7 and moves along the movement The direction D3 is away from the opening 115a until the guide 31 abuts against the first end edge 241 of the guide portion 24, and the limiting block 2 reaches the second position. When the limiting block 2 reaches the second position, the word block 7 can completely fill an insertion space withdrawn from the limiting block 2 and make the pattern surface 71 adjacent to the opening 115a. It should be particularly noted that the contour of the bottom surface of each block 7 may not be exactly the same as the contour of the abutting surface 21 of the single limit block 2, or may be the top of multiple adjacent limit blocks 2 The overall contour of the contact surface 21 is the same.

Referring to FIGS. 6, 7 and 13, the limiting grooves 25 of each limiting block 2 are suitable for oblique insertion of the paper product 8. Each limiting block 2 also has a body 26, a neck 27 connected to the top of the body 26, and an end 28 connected to the neck 27 in an inverted triangle shape. The body 26 has the aforementioned first side surfaces 22 and the second side surfaces 23, and flanges 261 extending from the peripheral edges of both ends. The end portion 28 has the abutting surface 21 and two inclined surfaces 281 facing the limiting grooves 25. The flange 261 of the body 26, the neck 27 and the end 28 jointly define the limiting grooves 25 so that each limiting groove 25 exhibits a two-stage inclined angle. The paper product 8 is suitable for inserting the limiting grooves 25 on the same side of the limiting blocks 2 in the same row before printing, abutting against the bottom end of the limiting grooves 25 and being affected by the limiting blocks The flanges 261 of 2 are supported and can abut against the inclined surfaces 281 of the neck portions 27 and the end portions 28 of the limiting blocks 2 by their own stiffness during printing. The design of the two-stage inclined angle of the slot 25 enables the paper product 8 to be fixed at the desired position, avoiding that the sliding unit 4 is accidentally twitched to the paper product 8 during printing, which prevents the pattern from being printed on the paper product 8 correctly position.

Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, the sliding unit 4 is movably disposed on the box 1 along the top surface of the box 1, and is suitable for rolling the paper product 8 (see FIG. 13) to move the block 7 The pattern on the is transferred to the paper product 8.

The roller 45 has a cylinder 451 and a soft sleeve 452 disposed on the cylinder 451 and suitable for rolling the paper product 8. In this embodiment, the soft cover 452 is made of silicone material. When the roller 45 rolls on the paper product 8, the soft cover 452 can make the pattern surface 71 of the character block 7 more closely adhere to the paper product 8, and can also reduce the wear of the character block in use, and by The adjustment of the height of these adjusting members 46 makes it possible to achieve a better uniform embossing effect during printing and make the paper have uneven impressions.

Referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 13 to FIG. 15, the following paragraphs describe the usage mode and operation process of the printing apparatus 100. First, adjust the limiting blocks 2 to the first position, so that the abutting surfaces 21 of the limiting blocks 2 are adjacent to the opening 115a. The limiting blocks 2 can be pushed up by pushing the limiting blocks 2 upwards from below the first box 11 into the accommodating space 115 by hand, or using the hexagonal wrench The second pressing member 15 is unscrewed away from the accommodating space 115, so that the first positioning block 12 and the second positioning block 13 are released from the limiting blocks 2 and the printing device 100 is turned upside down So that the limiting blocks 2 return to the first position by their own gravity, and then the first pressing pieces 14 and the second pressing pieces 15 are slightly screwed in the direction of the accommodating space 115, The first positioning block 12 and the second positioning block 13 are slightly pressed against the limiting blocks 2.

Next, the ink in the paint tank is adhered to the pattern surface 71 of the block 7, and the block 7 is pressed downward with the pattern surface 71 upward to the top of the limit block 2 at the desired position The surface 21 to press down the limiting block 2 so that the block 7 fills the accommodating space 115, the pattern surface 71 is adjacent to the opening 115a, and abuts against the other limiting block 2 at the first position Face 21 is flush. The abutting surfaces 21 of the limiting blocks 2 at the first position and the pattern surface 71 of the character block 7 together form a design layout. Next, the first pressing pieces 14 and the second pressing pieces 15 are tightened in the direction of the accommodating space 115, so as to press the first positioning block 12 and the The second positioning block 13 causes the limiting blocks 2 and the word blocks 7 to be tightly pressed together by the first positioning block 12 and the second positioning block 13 and the second inner side wall 113 and the partition wall 114 arrangement.

Then, insert the paper product 8 into the limiting grooves 25 on the same side of the limiting blocks 2 in one row.

Further, the pattern of the block 7 is transferred to the paper product 8. When the paper product 8 is rolled, the portion of the paper product 8 inserted into the limiting grooves 25 will abut against the inclined surfaces of the neck portion 27 and the end portion 28 of the limiting block 2 by its own stiffness 281, without leaving the limiting groove 25, to achieve the effect of fixing the paper product 8. It is also worth mentioning that, since the first rail groove 116b and the second rail groove 117a are open rails, when the roller 45 rolls over the paper product 8, the sliding unit 4 can be along the first direction D1 Take out from the first rail groove 116b and the second rail groove 117a, and put it into the first rail groove 116b and the second rail groove 117a again from the rear side of the second box 16 for the second rolling. The advantage of multiple rolling in the same direction is to increase the color depth of the pattern printing, and to avoid rolling back and forth in different directions may cause the paper product 8 to slightly deviate from the preset printing position and reduce the printing quality.

Referring to FIG. 16, in a modified implementation, the leftmost limit block 2 in the same row in the first embodiment can also be replaced with a strip-shaped limit block 2', and the limit block 2' It has a limit slot 25', which is suitable for inserting paper products.
