Processing cartridge having a retractable handle
A processing cartridge includes at least a photosensitive drum, a developing roller, and a casing containing the photosensitive drum and the developing roller. The photosensitive drum is fixed to the casing to form an electrostatic latent image, and the developing roller develops the electrostatic latent image on the photosensitive drum. The processing cartridge also includes a handle, and the handle is retractably fixed to the casing, which has an extending status and a shrinking status opposite to the extending status.
1. A processing cartridge comprising at least a photosensitive drum, a developing roller, a casing containing the photosensitive drum and the developing roller, the photosensitive drum being fixed to the casing to form an electrostatic latent image, the developing roller developing the electrostatic latent image on the photosensitive drum, and a handle, characterized in that the handle is retractably fixed to the casing, which has an extending status and a shrinking status opposite to the extending status,
wherein the handle comprises at least one handle slide block, at least one handle support, at least one handle torsion spring, and at least one handle stopper; the handle support is fixed to the casing, and is connected to the casing as one body; the handle stopper and the handle torsion spring are fixed to the handle support; the handle torsion spring is fixed to the handle stopper, and is at a pretightening status, so as to make the handle stopper have a certain restoring force,
wherein two sides of the handle support are separately provided with slideways, and the handle slide block can slide on the slideways, so as to make the handle to form the extending status and the shrinking status opposite to the extending status.
2. The processing cartridge of claim 1 , wherein the handle is symmetrically located at the approximately center of the casing.
3. A processing cartridge comprising at least a photosensitive drum, a developing roller, a casing containing the photosensitive drum and the developing roller, the photosensitive drum being fixed to the casing to form an electrostatic latent image, the developing roller developing an electrostatic latent image on the photosensitive drum, and a handle, characterized in that the handle is retractably fixed to the casing, which has an extending status and a shrinking status opposite to the extending status,
wherein the handle comprises at least one handle slide block, at least one handle support, at least one handle torsion spring, and at least one handle stopper;
the handle support is fixed to the casing, and is connected to the casing as one body; the handle stopper and the handle torsion spring are fixed to the handle support; the handle torsion spring is fixed to the handle stopper, and is at a pretightening status, so as to make the handle stopper have a certain restoring force,
wherein many bulges are formed on the handle slide block, and block grooves are formed between the bulges; the handle stopper is provided with a block tip, a push pedal, and a rotation axis; the handle torsion spring is located on the rotation axis; the block tip can be stuck into the block groove, and the length of the block tip is longer than the vertical distance from the rotation axis to the handle slide block; at this time the block tip can apply an acting force to the bulge to limit the sliding of the handle slide block; when an acting force is applied to the push pedal, the block tip exits from the block groove, so the handle slide block can slide freely.
4. The processing cartridge of claim 3 , wherein the handle is symmetrically located at the approximately center of the casing.
