2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a cutting machine integrated with a scanner is commercially available. FIG. 6 is a plan view of a main part of such a conventional scanner-integrated cutting machine, and FIG. 7 is a front view of the main part of the cutting machine shown in FIG. The scanner-integrated cutting machine scans a desired image to be cut with a scanner (not shown) provided on the back surface of the cutting machine 1, and the image is automatically cut on a sheet.

Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, a cutting machine 1 includes a conveying section 2 for conveying a cutting sheet 21 in a direction of an arrow, and a cutting section 3 for cutting the sent cutting sheet 21. including.

The conveying section 2 is a sheet feeding roll 15a for conveying the cutting sheet 21 by frictional force.
b and a sheet feed roll support bar 16 for synchronously rotating the sheet feed rolls 15a and 15b. The sheet feed roll support bar 16 is rotationally driven by a drive device (not shown).

The cutting section 3 includes a cutter 11, a cutter holder 12 for holding the cutter 11, and a cutter holder 12
Bar 13 for movably holding the cutting sheet 21 in a direction intersecting the conveyance direction of the cutting sheet 21 and guide bar supports 14a, 1 for supporting the guide bar 13.
4b and. The cutter holder 12 is driven by a driving device (not shown) along the guide bar 13 in a direction intersecting the conveyance direction of the cutting sheet 21.

Conventionally, in the cutting machine 1 shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, a check sheet is used in place of the cutting sheet 21 in order to confirm the output of the cutting machine 1 prior to the cutting of the cutting sheet 21. Instead of the cutter 11, a pen is used for the cutter holder 1
When set to 2, the cutting line for cutting was output on the check sheet.

[0007]

In the past, the above-mentioned output was performed to confirm the output of the cutting machine, but it was necessary to use a new sheet as the check sheet each time it was checked. In the case of a scanner-integrated cutting machine as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7,
I don't know what kind of data is taken in as cutting data until I actually cut the sheet.
Such a check is absolutely necessary. As a result, there is a problem that a check sheet is indispensable when actually cutting, and as a result, the output of the cutting machine cannot be easily confirmed.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an output confirmation device for a cutting machine, which can easily confirm the output of the cutting machine.

[0009]

According to the present invention, an output confirmation device for a cutting machine used in a cutting machine for cutting a desired shape from a cutting sheet by relatively moving a cutter and a cutting sheet, It includes a sheet material that can be conveyed by a conveying unit that conveys a cutting sheet. The sheet material includes a base portion and a surface sheet that covers the base portion and is detachably attached to the base portion with at least a portion fixed to the base portion. When pressure is applied from above the surface sheet, a trace due to the pressure remains on it. By separating the surface sheet and the base portion, the locus left on the sheet material disappears. The output confirmation device further includes a pressing unit that is held by a holding unit that holds the cutter and that pressurizes the sheet material.

[0010]

In the cutting machine, since the locus is actually drawn on the sheet material by using the pressing means, the cutting information of the cutting machine can be known in advance. Furthermore, by removing the surface sheet from the base portion, the locus left by the pressure disappears, so that the sheet material can be reused.

[0011]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a view showing a main part of a cutting part 3 in an output checking device for a cutting machine according to the present invention, and corresponds to a part including a cutter 11, a cutter holder 12 and a guide bar 13 in FIG.
