| 20110020044 | PRINTING MEDIUM CLAMP MECHANISM OF BARCODE PRINTER - A printing medium clamp mechanism is provided for use in a barcode printer and includes a housing, at least one swivel arm, at least one resilient element, at least one medium roll clamps, and at least two movable arms. The housing comprises an inner casing arranged therein. The inner casing forms two through slots serving as tracks. The swivel arm is rotatably mounted to a bottom of the inner casing. The resilient element is connected between an end of the swivel arm and the inner casing to provide a biasing force for return rotation of the swivel arm. The medium roll clamps are respectively and movably received in the tracks. The two movable arms have first ends coupled to opposite ends of the swivel arm and opposite, second ends coupled to the medium roll clamps respectively, whereby the two medium roll clamps are coupled in a resilient manner to the swivel arms to be movable along the tracks of the inner casing for outward movement of separating from each other or inward movement of approaching each other and effecting clamping of a roll of printing medium. In this way, when the medium roll clamps are forced to outward move against the resilient biasing force, a roll of printing medium can be received and installed; and when the medium roll clamps are released, they are biased to return and clamp the roll of the printing medium. As such, a printing medium clamp mechanism featuring a resilient returning and clamping force for clamping a roll of printing medium is provided. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20100061790 | LABEL ROLL HOLDER RETURNING MECHANISM FOR BARCODE PRINTER - A label roll holder returning mechanism is provided for a barcode printer and includes at least one restoration roller, a coiled resilient element, at least two movable rails, and at least two label roll holding elements. The restoration roller is rotatably mounted to a bottom of the barcode printer and has a top portion forming a positive-movement engagement section. The coiled resilient element is received inside the restoration roller to provide a restoration force to the rotation of the restoration roller. The movable rails are set to the bottom of the barcode printer in a substantially parallel manner. Each movable rail has a surface forming at least one counterpart positive-movement engagement section engaging the positive-movement engagement section of the restoration roller. The label roll holding elements are arranged at a top of the barcode printer and are coupled to the movable rails respectively, whereby the label roll holding elements offer the function of outward separating from each other for removing and installing a roll of label and inward approaching each other to clamp and hold the label roll by means of the engagement between the restoration roller and the movable rails and the restoration force thereof. As such, a label roll holder returning mechanism featuring balanced force restoration is provided. | 03-11-2010 |
