本發明是有關於一種印表機裝置,且特別是有關於一種可校正紙張的印表機裝置。The present invention relates to a printer device, and more particularly to a printer device capable of correcting paper.
辦公室通常具備有印表、影印或掃描等功能的印表機(printer),讓員工可將紙張自外部手動閘或內部紙盤等進紙匣帶入其機體內部以進行印表、影印或掃描等文書處理作業,最後再經由出紙匣送出紙張。Offices usually have printers with functions such as printing, photocopying or scanning, allowing employees to bring paper from external manual gates or internal paper trays into the machine for printing, photocopying or scanning. Wait for the word processing job, and finally send out the paper through the output tray.
然而,上述印表機使用時,紙張容易在傳輸過程中產生歪斜或偏置,造成印表、影印或掃描出歪斜影像,或卡紙情形發生。因此,如何避免紙張歪斜或偏置,以達成高品質的印表、影印或掃描影像,係業者改良印表機之重點。However, when the above-mentioned printers are used, the paper is prone to skew or offset during transmission, causing skewed images in printing, photocopying, or scanning, or paper jams. Therefore, how to avoid paper skew or offset in order to achieve high-quality printing, photocopying or scanning images is the focus of the industry in improving printers.
有鑑於此,本發明人遂針對上述現有技術,特潛心研究並配合學理的運用,盡力解決上述之問題點,即成為本發明人改良之目標。In view of this, the inventor of the present invention focused on the above-mentioned prior art, and made great efforts to solve the above-mentioned problems, which became the goal of the present inventor's improvement.
本發明提供一種可校正紙張的印表機裝置,其係利用紙張能夠置入且被限制在二整紙擋臂之間,以達到印表機裝置具有校正紙張之功效。The present invention provides a printer device capable of calibrating paper, which utilizes the paper to be inserted and restricted between two full paper stop arms, so that the printer device has the effect of calibrating paper.
於本發明實施例中,本發明係提供一種可校正紙張的印表機裝置,用於一紙張,該印表機裝置包括:一印表機本體,具有一進紙匣及一送紙通道,所述紙張由該進紙匣傳送至該送紙通道,所述紙張位於該進紙匣時,該印表機本體測得所述紙張的寬度後輸出一紙張尺寸訊號;一紙張校正模組,安裝於該送紙通道,該紙張校正模組包含二整紙擋臂及連接於該二整紙擋臂的一致動機構,該二整紙擋臂設置在該送紙通道的左、右兩側,該致動機構能夠帶動該二整紙擋臂相互接近或遠離;以及一處理器,電性連接於該致動機構,該處理器接收該紙張尺寸訊號後,控制該致動機構帶動該二整紙擋臂間隔一預設間距,以令所述紙張能夠置入該預設間距內且被限制在該二整紙擋臂之間。In the embodiment of the present invention, the present invention provides a printer device capable of calibrating paper for a piece of paper. The printer device includes: a printer body with a paper feeding tray and a paper feeding channel; The paper is conveyed from the paper input tray to the paper feeding channel. When the paper is located in the paper input tray, the printer body measures the width of the paper and outputs a paper size signal; a paper correction module, Installed in the paper feed channel, the paper correction module includes two paper stop arms and an actuation mechanism connected to the two paper stop arms, the two paper stop arms are arranged on the left and right sides of the paper feed channel , The actuating mechanism can drive the two full paper stop arms to approach or move away from each other; and a processor is electrically connected to the actuating mechanism, and after receiving the paper size signal, the processor controls the actuating mechanism to drive the two The paper stop arms are spaced at a predetermined distance, so that the paper can be placed in the predetermined distance and be restricted between the two paper stop arms.
基於上述,送紙通道持續輸送紙張的過程,紙張皆被二整紙擋臂導正位置,以避免紙張發生歪斜或偏置等情形,使印表機裝置具有自動判斷紙張尺寸、校正紙張位置、結構簡單及提高印表、影印或掃描的品質穩定度等優點。Based on the above, during the process of continuous paper feeding in the paper feeding channel, the paper is guided to the correct position by the two paper stop arms to avoid skewing or offset of the paper, so that the printer device can automatically determine the paper size, correct the paper position, It has the advantages of simple structure and improved quality stability of printing, photocopying or scanning.
基於上述,紙張放置在進紙匣時,處理器接收紙張尺寸訊號後,即可在紙張進入送紙通道前,快速控制二整紙擋臂間隔至預設間距,使校正紙張過程具有不影響印表、影印或掃描速度,以達到印表機裝置具有支援高速印表、影印或掃描之特點。Based on the above, when the paper is placed in the paper tray, after the processor receives the paper size signal, it can quickly control the interval between the two paper stop arms to the preset interval before the paper enters the paper feeding path, so that the process of correcting the paper has no effect on printing. Printing, copying or scanning speed, in order to achieve the printer device has the characteristics of supporting high-speed printing, copying or scanning.
有關本發明之詳細說明及技術內容,將配合圖式說明如下,然而所附圖式僅作為說明用途,並非用於侷限本發明。The detailed description and technical content of the present invention will be described as follows in conjunction with the drawings. However, the accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only, and are not intended to limit the present invention.
請參考圖1至圖7所示,本發明係提供一種可校正紙張的印表機裝置,用於一紙張100,此印表機裝置10主要包括一印表機本體1、一紙張校正模組3及一處理器4。Please refer to FIGS. 1-7. The present invention provides a printer device capable of calibrating paper for a
如圖1至圖3、圖6至圖7所示,印表機本體1具有一進紙匣11及一送紙通道12,送紙通道12的前、後側具有一入紙端121及一出紙端122,紙張100由進紙匣11傳送至送紙通道12,紙張100再由入紙端121傳送至出紙端122。As shown in Figures 1 to 3 and Figures 6 to 7, the
詳細說明如下,如圖7所示,本實施例之進紙匣11為安裝在印表機本體1外部的一外部手動閘13,印表機本體1更具有一工作區14及一出紙閘15,送紙通道12設置在工作區14的前端,且送紙通道12設置在外部手動閘13與工作區14之間,紙張100依序由外部手動閘13、送紙通道12、工作區14傳送至出紙閘15,其中工作區14安裝有列印裝置或掃描裝置,用以對紙張100進行列印或掃描作業,以完成紙張100單面列印或掃描。The detailed description is as follows. As shown in FIG. 7, the
另外,如圖3所示,紙張100位於進紙匣11時,印表機本體1可測得紙張100的寬度w後輸出一紙張尺寸訊號。In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, when the
本實施例之印表機本體1測得紙張100的寬度w方式如下,進紙匣11具有一底盤111、安裝且可移動於底盤111的二寬度活動夾112及對應二寬度活動夾112配置的二距離感測器113,使用者將紙張100放置在底盤111時,同時會移動二寬度活動夾112,使二寬度活動夾112貼接紙張100的左、右側,之後二距離感測器113感測其與二寬度活動夾112之間相差的距離,即可得知紙張100的寬度w,從而輸出紙張尺寸訊號。The
其中,距離感測器113為雷射感測器(Laser Sensor)或超音波感測器(Ultrasound Wave Sensor),雷射感測器具有發射出來的光源,人類看不見、反應快速、不受空氣中的懸浮物(灰塵)影響等優點;超音波感測器具有發射出來的音波,人類聽不見、不受環境光源的影響、不受空氣中的懸浮物(灰塵)影響等優點。Among them, the
此外,二寬度活動夾112貼接紙張100的左、右側後,印表機本體1內部的運算系統也可由二寬度活動夾112的位置計算出紙張100的寬度w而輸出紙張尺寸訊號,或使用者透過印表機本體1自行輸入紙張尺寸而輸出紙張尺寸訊號,所以印表機本體1測得紙張100的寬度w方式不以本實施例為限制。In addition, after the two-width
如圖1至圖2、圖4至圖7所示,紙張校正模組3安裝於送紙通道12,紙張校正模組3包含二整紙擋臂31及連接於二整紙擋臂31的一致動機構32,二整紙擋臂31設置在送紙通道12的左、右兩側,致動機構32能夠帶動二整紙擋臂31相互接近或遠離。其中,二整紙擋臂31朝接近入紙端121方向延伸有逐漸增加間隔距離的二傾斜導片311。As shown in Figures 1 to 2 and Figures 4 to 7, the
另外,致動機構32包含一馬達321及二橫向齒條322,馬達321具有一驅動齒盤3211,二橫向齒條322設置在驅動齒盤3211兩側且與驅動齒盤3211相嚙合,二整紙擋臂31自二橫向齒條322遠離驅動齒盤3211的一端延伸成型,馬達321與處理器4電性連接。In addition, the
再者,本實施例之二橫向齒條322係以驅動齒盤3211為中心而左、右對稱設置,所以驅動齒盤3211嚙合傳動二橫向齒條322的移動量相同,使二整紙擋臂31相互接近或遠離的移動量也相同。Furthermore, the second
又,致動機構32更包含一原始點感應器33,原始點感應器33固定在其一橫向齒條322上,原始點感應器33用以感測歸位至一原始點而輸出一歸位訊號。In addition, the
如圖4至圖5所示,處理器4分別電性連接於距離感測器113與致動機構32,處理器4接收紙張尺寸訊號後,控制致動機構32帶動二整紙擋臂31間隔一預設間距s,以令紙張100能夠置入預設間距s內且被限制在二整紙擋臂31之間。其中,預設間距s為紙張100的寬度w之1.01至1.015倍之間。進一步說明如下,本實施例之處理器4接收紙張尺寸訊號後,先控制致動機構32帶動原始點感應器33歸位至原始點,處理器4再接收到歸位訊號後,才控制致動機構32帶動二整紙擋臂31內縮間隔至預設間距s。As shown in FIGS. 4 to 5, the
如圖2至圖3、圖6至圖7所示,係本發明印表機裝置10之使用狀態。首先,使用者將紙張100放置在進紙匣11的二寬度活動夾112中,距離感測器113能夠透過二寬度活動夾112之調整量,感測紙張100的寬度w而輸出紙張尺寸訊號。As shown in Figs. 2 to 3 and Figs. 6 to 7, it is the usage state of the
之後,處理器4接收紙張尺寸訊號後,先驅動馬達321帶動驅動齒盤3211旋轉,以嚙合傳動二橫向齒條322向外移動,直到原始點感應器33歸位至原始點而輸出歸位訊號,處理器4再接收歸位訊號後,才控制驅動齒盤3211嚙合傳動二橫向齒條322向內移動,直到二整紙擋臂31內縮間隔至預設間距s,所以紙張100未進入送紙通道12時,二整紙擋臂31已間隔至預設間距s。After the
最後,紙張100由進紙匣11傳送至送紙通道12,紙張100經由入紙端121進入送紙通道12中時,二傾斜導片311設置在紙張100的左、右外側並導引紙張100逐漸進入二整紙擋臂31之間,二整紙擋臂31貼近紙張100的寬度w且貼接在紙張100的左、右側,使送紙通道12持續輸送紙張100的過程,紙張100皆被二整紙擋臂31導正位置,以避免紙張100發生歪斜或偏置等情形,使印表機裝置10具有自動判斷紙張100尺寸、校正紙張100位置、結構簡單及提高印表、影印或掃描的品質穩定度等優點。Finally, the
另外,預設間距s為紙張100的寬度w之1.01至1.015倍之間,舉例說明如下,紙張100的寬度w為210mm,則預設間距s為212.1(210*1.01)mm至213.15(210*1.015)mm之間,使二整紙擋臂31能確實導正紙張100位置,又能預防紙張100過度夾持,進而提高印表機裝置10之使用壽命。In addition, the preset spacing s is between 1.01 to 1.015 times the width w of the
再者,紙張100放置在進紙匣11時,處理器4接收紙張尺寸訊號後,即可在紙張100進入送紙通道12前,先快速控制二整紙擋臂31間隔至預設間距s,使校正紙張100過程具有不影響印表、影印或掃描速度之優點,且二傾斜導片311導引紙張100逐漸進入二整紙擋臂31中,可避免紙張100受撞擊而產生傷痕,以達到印表機裝置10具有支援高速印表、影印或掃描之特點。Furthermore, when the
請參考圖8所示,係本發明印表機裝置10之另一實施例,圖8之實施例與圖1至圖7之實施例大致相同,圖8之實施例與圖1至圖7之實施例不同之處在於進紙匣11的結構及位置不同。Please refer to FIG. 8, which is another embodiment of the
進一步說明如下,本實施例之進紙匣11為安裝在印表機本體1內部的一內部紙盤16,送紙通道12設置在工作區14的前端,且送紙通道12設置在內部紙盤16與工作區14之間,紙張100依序由內部紙盤16、送紙通道12、工作區14傳送至出紙閘15,其中工作區14安裝有列印裝置或掃描裝置,用以對紙張100進行列印或掃描作業,以完成紙張100單面列印或掃描。藉此,紙張100進入工作區14前會被二整紙擋臂31導正,以達到相同於圖1至圖7之實施例的功能及功效。Further description is as follows, the
請參考圖9所示,係本發明印表機裝置10之再一實施例,圖9之實施例與圖1至圖7、圖8之實施例大致相同,圖9之實施例與圖1至圖7、圖8之實施例不同之處在於送紙通道12及紙張校正模組3的數量可為複數。Please refer to FIG. 9, which is another embodiment of the
詳細說明如下,印表機本體1更具有與出紙閘15連通的一回捲通道17及與工作區14連通的一翻面通道18,回捲通道17用於將其一單面已列印或掃描的紙張100由出紙閘15回捲至翻面通道18,翻面通道18用於將其一單面已列印或掃描的紙張100翻面再傳送至工作區14對紙張100的另一單面進行列印或掃描作業。The detailed description is as follows. The
