Abstract

The paper discharge mechanism comprises: a first side passage plate and a second side passage plate between which an S-shaped paper conveying passage is formed, wherein the second side passage plate comprises a paper jam detection plate and a paper pullout detection plate both pivotally connected on a frame; a first elastic element biasing the paper jam detection plate and a second elastic element biasing the paper pullout detection plate; and a first sensor and a second sensor. A surface of the paper jam detection plate facing paper is concave and is held against the paper and rotates in the direction away from the first side passage plate during paper jam; a surface of the paper pullout detection plate facing the paper is convex and is held against the paper and rotates in the direction away from the first side passage plate during paper pullout.

Claims (21)

1. A paper discharge mechanism, wherein it comprises:

a first side passage plate and a second side passage plate between which an S-shaped paper conveying passage is formed, wherein the second side passage plate comprises a paper jam detection plate and a paper pullout detection plate which are both pivotally connected on a frame;

a first elastic element biasing the paper jam detection plate toward the first side passage plate and a second elastic element biasing the paper pullout detection plate toward the first side passage plate; and

a first sensor for detecting the position of the paper jam detection plate and a second sensor for detecting the position of the paper pullout detection plate,

wherein a surface of the paper jam detection plate facing paper is concave and is held against the paper and rotates in the direction away from the first side passage plate during paper jam; a surface of the paper pullout detection plate facing the paper is convex and is held against the paper and rotates in the direction away from the first side passage plate during paper pullout.

2. The paper discharge mechanism according to claim 1 , wherein the paper jam detection plate is adjacent to the paper pullout detection plate, and the adjacent ends of the both are arranged crosswise to each other to form a smooth paper conveying surface.

3. A printing device, wherein it comprises a printing assembly, a cutter assembly and the paper outputting mechanism according to claim 2 arranged along a paper conveying direction in turn.

4. The paper discharge mechanism according to claim 1 , wherein the paper jam detection plate is located at an inlet side of the S-shaped paper conveying passage and the paper pullout detection plate is located at an outlet side of the S-shaped paper conveying passage.

5. A printing device, wherein it comprises a printing assembly, a cutter assembly and the paper outputting mechanism according to claim 4 arranged along a paper conveying direction in turn.

6. The paper discharge mechanism according to claim 1 , wherein two sides of the first side passage along the direction of the width of the paper are detachably engaged on the frame.

7. A printing device, wherein it comprises a printing assembly, a cutter assembly and the paper outputting mechanism according to claim 6 arranged along a paper conveying direction in turn.

8. The paper discharge mechanism according to claim 1 , wherein a pivoting axis of the paper jam detection plate is located on one side of the paper jam detection plate close to the paper pullout detection plate, and a pivoting axis of the paper pullout detection plate is located on one side of the paper pullout detection plate close to the paper jam detection plate.

9. A printing device, wherein it comprises a printing assembly, a cutter assembly and the paper outputting mechanism according to claim 8 arranged along a paper conveying direction in turn.

10. The paper discharge mechanism according to claim 1 , wherein along the paper conveying direction, a pivoting axis of the paper jam detection plate is located in the downstream of a pivoting axis of the paper pullout detection plate, and the paper jam detection plate is provided with pivotal connection arms extending at two sides of the paper pullout detection plate along the direction of the width of paper.

11. A printing device, wherein it comprises a printing assembly, a cutter assembly and the paper outputting mechanism according to claim 10 arranged along a paper conveying direction in turn.

12. The paper discharge mechanism according to claim 1 , wherein one side of the paper jam detection plate back to the paper conveying passage is provided with a first detected portion and the frame is provided with a first detection component detecting a set position of the first detected portion; one side of the paper pullout detection plate back to the paper conveying passage is provided with a second detected portion, and the frame is provided with a second detection component detecting a set position of the second detected portion.

13. A printing device, wherein it comprises a printing assembly, a cutter assembly and the paper outputting mechanism according to claim 12 arranged along a paper conveying direction in turn.

14. The paper discharge mechanism according to claim 1 , wherein the first side passage plate and/or the second side passage plate are/is provided with a spacing location mechanism for maintaining a preset spacing distance between the first side passage plate and the second side passage plate.

15. A printing device, wherein it comprises a printing assembly, a cutter assembly and the paper outputting mechanism according to claim 14 arranged along a paper conveying direction in turn.

16. A printing device, wherein it comprises a printing assembly, a cutter assembly and the paper discharge mechanism according to claim 1 arranged along a paper conveying direction in turn.

17. A terminal equipment, wherein it is provided with the printing device according to claim 16 .
