Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the wetting of the top face and edge of a rolled paper cutter by rain when a portable terminal equipment is used in outdoors by installing a vinyl sheeting covering a section up to the outlet of rolled paper or a cover capable of being opened and closed by a rotary motion or a sliding motion in the horizontal direction. CONSTITUTION:Rolled 3, to which printing is completed, is passed in the section of a rolled paper outlet formed between an edge 1a at the front end of a rolled paper cutter 1 and a guide member 4 guiding the travelling of paper 3 and discharged. A vinyl sheeting 2 is set up onto the top face of the rolled paper cutter 1, and a vinyl sheeting 2 is further extended from the front end of the edge 1a, and covers a section up to the upper section of the outlet. Accordingly, when a portable terminal equipment, to which the rolled paper cutter is mounted, is used in outdoors at the time of a rainy day, the wetting of the top face and edge of the cutter by rain is prevented.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a roll paper cutter for a portable terminal device which is used outdoors and is equipped with roll paper for printing.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional roll paper cutter for a portable terminal device that is used outdoors for printing by mounting a roll paper does not have a component for covering the exit of the roll paper, It has an exterior structure with its upper surface exposed.

[0003]

As described above, since the roll paper cutter of the conventional portable terminal device has an external structure in which the upper surface of the roll paper cutter is exposed, it can be outdoors outdoors in the rain. When used, the upper surface of the roll paper cutter and the blade are wet with rain, and the water droplets penetrate into the roll paper, so that there is a drawback that a paper jam occurs when the roll paper is discharged.

[0004]

The first roll paper cutter of the present invention is a vinyl sheet covering the upper surface of the roll paper cutter up to the exit of the roll paper, or the upper surface of the roll paper cutter covering up to the exit of the roll paper. A cover that can be opened and closed by a dynamic motion, or a cover that covers the exit of the roll paper on the upper surface of the roll paper cutter and that can be opened and closed by a horizontal sliding motion is provided.

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing a first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1A is a diagram showing a state when a roll paper is being discharged, and FIG. 1B is a cut view of the roll paper. It is a figure which shows the state at the time of.

In FIG. 1A, the roll paper 3 on which printing has been completed is a roll paper provided between a blade 1a at the tip of the roll paper cutter 1 and a guide member 4 for guiding the travel of the roll paper 3. It is discharged through the outlet. A vinyl sheet 2 is provided on the upper surface of the roll paper cutter 1, and the vinyl sheet 2 extends further from the tip of the blade 1a and covers the upper portion of this outlet. Therefore, when the portable terminal device equipped with this roll paper cutter is used outdoors in rainy weather, the upper surface of the roll paper cutter and the blade are not wet with rain, so that the roll paper 3 is prevented from getting wet with water droplets. It

When cutting the roll paper 3 on which printing is completed, as shown in FIG. 1B, the roll paper 3 is lifted and brought into contact with the blade 1a at the tip of the roll paper cutter 1, and the vinyl sheet 2 is removed. Since it is turned up by the roll paper 3, the roll paper 3 can be cut without any trouble. After cutting the roll paper 3, the vinyl sheet 2
Automatically returns to the state of FIG.

2A and 2B are sectional views showing a second embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2A is a view showing a state when the roll paper is being discharged, and FIG. 2B is a cut view of the roll paper. It is a figure which shows the state at the time of.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, a cover 12 is not provided in place of the vinyl sheet 2 of the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, and the cover 12 can be opened and closed by a rotating motion. , The cover 1 as shown in FIG.
2 is closed, and the tip of the cover 12 covers the roll paper outlet provided between the blade 11a at the tip of the roll paper cutter 11 and the guide member 14 that guides the traveling of the roll paper 13. There is. This prevents the roll paper 13 from getting wet with rain.

When cutting the roll paper 13, FIG.
As shown in (b), the cover 12 is opened to expose the above-mentioned outlet portion, and then the roll paper 13 is lifted to raise the blade 11a.
To contact and cut. When the cutting is completed, the cover 12 is closed again.

3A and 3B are sectional views showing a third embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3A is a view showing a state when the roll paper is being discharged, and FIG. 3B is a cut view of the roll paper. It is a figure which shows the state at the time of.

The embodiment of FIG. 3 is such that the cover in the embodiment of FIG. 2 can be opened and closed by a sliding motion in the horizontal direction, and other configurations and operations are the same as those of the embodiment of FIG. That is, the cover 22 can be opened and closed by a sliding motion in the horizontal direction. In a normal state, the cover 22 is closed as shown in FIG. Paper cutter 21
It covers the portion of the roll paper outlet provided between the blade 21a at the tip of the roll paper and the guide member 24 for guiding the travel of the roll paper 23. This prevents the roll paper 23 from getting wet with rain.

When cutting the roll paper 23, as shown in FIG.
As shown in (b), the cover 22 is opened to expose the above-mentioned outlet portion, and then the roll paper 23 is lifted to raise the blade 21a.
To contact and cut. When the cutting is completed, the cover 22 is closed again.

[0015]

As described above, the roll paper cutter of the portable terminal device of the present invention can be opened and closed by a vinyl sheet covering the roll paper outlet up to the exit of the roll paper or by a rotational movement or a horizontal sliding movement. By providing a cover that can be used, when the portable terminal device is used outdoors in rainy weather, the upper surface of the roll paper cutter and the blade do not get wet with rain, so it is possible to prevent the roll paper from getting wet with water droplets. Therefore, there is an effect that it is possible to prevent the occurrence of a paper jam when the roll paper is discharged.
