本印はプリンタ装置における用紙切断機構に係り、特に
印字位置から用紙切断部までの距離を多段に選択可能な
用紙切断機構に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Application of the Invention] The present invention relates to a paper cutting mechanism in a printer device, and particularly relates to a paper cutting mechanism in which the distance from the printing position to the paper cutting section can be selected in multiple stages.
プリンタ装置としては種々のものが実用化されている。 Various types of printer devices have been put into practical use.

しあて用紙４を切断する。For example, a wire matrix type serial printer 1) as shown in FIG. 1 is widely known. In this figure, 1 is a wire matrix type print head, and a platen 2 is arranged opposite to it. An ink ribbon 3 and a printing paper 4 are guided between the platen 2 and the print head 1. The printing paper 4 is wound around the platen 2, and is sent in the direction of arrow a by the tractor 5 in synchronization with the rotation of the platen 2. The feed roller 6 has the function of preventing the paper 4 and the platen 2 from sticking together and feeding the paper 4. The print head 1 moves back and forth parallel to the platen 2, and the ink 11
Characters, etc. are printed on the paper 4 via the bong 3. The paper 4 is appropriately fed in the direction of arrow a by the tractor 5 and feed roller 6! Ru. After completing this series of printing operations, the paper 4 is strongly pressed against the paper cutter 7 while being pulled in the direction indicated by the broken line arrow to cut the paper 4.

。Here, when printing on printing paper, it is common to print guide texts and frames at predetermined locations (hereinafter referred to as pre-printing), and print with these as targets. In general, the printing paper 4 is composed of a plurality of sheets of paper that can be copied, and what is often used is a so-called continuous form, which has a structure in which each page can be separated at a perforation. Pre-printing on the continuous form is determined so that the paper separation position, that is, the perforation position, coincides with the blade of the size cutter 7,
The standard dimension from the print center of the print head to the paper cutter is usually set to 11/12 inches to 13/12 inches, and pre-printing is also carried out with this in mind.

しては全く対拠できない等の不１具合がある。However, the printing error in pre-printing is usually around 1 mm, and the difference between the printing center of the print head 1 and the attachment of the cutter 7 must be several degrees, so it is difficult to expect perfect alignment between the perforations of the paper and the cutter. Many. Therefore, if these errors are accepted and the paper is forcibly cut with the cutter 7, the paper will be torn at places other than the perforations, and the slip will be wasted. To avoid these problems, either make fine adjustments to the paper feed to align the perforation with the paper cutter each time you cut the paper, or ignore the misalignment between pre-printing and printing position and align the perforation with the paper cutter from the beginning. One possible method is to load paper in advance. However, these methods are troublesome to operate, and there are cases in which the user's requests cannot be met. Further 11. There is a problem that it cannot be applied at all to cutting positions with different dimensions such as /12 inch to 13/12 inch.

The engagement of the unevenness 14 on the cover side is released, and the cutter 7 is moved to the rotation axis 8.
It can be rotated around.
そして、その適当な位置で保持金具１５の変位を解くと
保持金具１１の凹凸部１２とカバーの凹凸１４が再び係

に限らず、他の公知のものであってもよい。In the embodiment, the angle is set by the engagement of the concavities and convexities between the cup 7 and the cover 16, but the angle is not limited to this, and may be in the shape of a sawtooth or other protrusions. Of course, it goes without saying that the finer the protrusions, the greater the range of options for multiple stages, but this can be determined by determining the appropriate number of stages based on the issue of paper cutter fixing strength and cutter fixing accuracy. Furthermore, it goes without saying that the same effect can be obtained not only by the biasing force of the holding fitting itself as the above-mentioned protruding engagement pressure contact means, but also by pressure contact using other springs, members, etc. Of course, the printing means is not limited to the wire printer (1x type serial printer), but may be of any other known type.
