A disc loading section 3 is provided protrudingly, and a notch 4 is cut in the top plate 3' of the dial loading section 3 at a location above the tape running groove 2, and a disc body is inserted into the dial loading section 3. A large number of cylindrical vertical holes 7 are provided at the outer peripheral edge of the disc body 5, and a plurality of cylindrical vertical holes 7 are formed in the middle of each cylindrical vertical hole 7. A stamp holding frame 41 having an inward flange 40 and a rubber stamp body 9 fastened to its lower end is inserted into a cylindrical vertical hole such that the fastening portion of the rubber stamp body 9 is located below the flange 40. A protrusion 25 disposed within . . . 7 and having a downward bottomed cylindrical shape at the top of the stamp body holding frame 41 for regulating the limit of descent of the stamp body holding frame 41.
At the same time, a spring 8 is interposed between the flange 40 and the top end of the stamp holding frame 41, and the desired stamp is attached to the outer peripheral surface of the disc body 5 and the side wall of the transverse portion 1' of the main body 1. A concave groove 10 and a plate spring 11 are provided which engage with each other to temporarily stop the rotation of the disk body 5 when the groove 9 is located directly below the notch 4, and are further provided on the inner surface of the vertical portion 1'' of the main body 1. A printing handle 13 is arranged, the middle part of the printing handle 13 is rotatably supported on the horizontal part 1' with a shaft pin 14, and the base of the printing handle 13 is attached to the tip 13' of the printing handle 13. Attach the hammer 15 which, when gripped and squeezed with the end 13'' toward the vertical portion of the main body 1, presses down the desired stamp body 9, and attach the lid 16 to the vertical portion 1'' of the main body 1. There is a tape magazine 18 which opens and closes to load the tape 17, and a ratchet wheel 19 which feeds the tape 17 character by character into the tape running groove 2 by gripping and squeezing the printing handle 13 at the bent part of the main body 1. Equipped with a roller 20 with an attached roller 20 and a freely rotatable pressure roller 21 that presses the tape 17 onto the same roller 20, and by rotating this pressure roller 21, the tape 17 is fed by the roller 21 with a ratchet wheel 19. Furthermore, a knife 22 above the tip of the tape running groove 2 is fixed, and a cutting handle 23 is arranged on the lower surface of the tip of the horizontal portion 1' of the main body 1. Cut handle 2
3 is rotatably supported on the transverse portion 1' with a shaft pin 24, and a return spring 25 is engaged in the middle part of the cutter handle 23, and the cutter is attached to a part near the tip of the cutter handle 23. A cushion spring 2 presses against the knife 22 to cut the printed tape 17 when the handle 23 is squeezed.

A feeding port 32 with the same width as the wide tape 17a
The inner diameter of the tape magazine 18 is fixed with a mouth member 34 having a two-tier stacked arrangement of outlets 32 having the same width as the narrow tape 17b, and separately from this, an outlet 35 for the tape 17 is cut out on the circumferential surface. An auxiliary body 38 is constituted by a ring-shaped drum 36 having a smaller diameter rotatably supported on a base plate 37, and the base plate 37 of this auxiliary body 38 is
When the rolled tape 17 loaded in the drum 36 is fed out, the leading end engages the rear incisal edge of the tape 17 feeding opening 35 in the drum 36 from the outside to prevent the drum 36 from rotating in the feeding direction of the tape 17. When the tape 17 that has been locked and once fed out is wound around the drum 36, engagement with the front incisal edge is blocked by the feeding portion of the tape 17 located between the tape 17 and the front incisal edge of the feeding port 35. At the same time, a torsion spring-like locking member 39 that allows the drum 36 to rotate in reverse is attached, and the auxiliary body 39 is attached to the tape magazine 18.
It can be inserted into and taken out freely.

In addition, 29 in the figure is the same display character as the stamp surface of the stamp body 9,
30 is a viewing window through which the displayed characters 29 can be seen, and 31 is a protrusion for limiting the stalk of the printing body 9 so that the printing pressure is always constant.

That is, in printing, after rotating the disk body 5 to position the desired printing body 9 directly below the notch 4, the printing handle 13 is grasped and squeezed to push down the hammer 15. 9 is pressed onto the tape 17 in the running groove 2, and the printing handle 1 is pressed.
By eliminating the grip on 3, the ratchet wheel 1
9. Stamp a name, etc. on the tape 17 by repeating the operation of rotating the roller 20 and the pressure roller 21 and feeding out the tape 17 by one character, and also squeeze the cutting handle 23 and perform the squeezing operation and its release operation. In addition, it can be used by cutting the stamped tape to obtain small pieces with names and other stamps stamped on them.

Since the present invention is as described above, it is of course possible to easily obtain a small piece on which desired characters are continuously stamped by applying the method as shown in the examples. In this case, an inward flange is provided in the middle of each cylindrical vertical hole, and the stamp holding frame with the lower end rubber stamp body fixed thereon is arranged so that the clamping part of the rubber stamp body is located below the above-mentioned flange. The stamp body holding frame is arranged in a cylindrical vertical hole, and a protrusion is formed on the top of the stamp body holding frame to limit the downward movement of the stamp body holding frame, which has a downwardly facing cylindrical shape, and is connected to the above-mentioned flange and the stamp body holding frame. Since a spring is interposed between the tops of the frame, it is possible to equalize the pressing force of the printing body to the tape regardless of the strength of the drawing of the handle. Coupled with the fact that rubber is used for the tape, there is an advantage in that it is possible to reliably prevent unevenness in the stamp impression.Furthermore, in the present invention, the inner diameter of the tape magazine with the tape outlet cut out on the circumferential surface is An auxiliary body is constituted by a small diameter ring-shaped drum rotatably supported on a base plate, and when the tape loaded in the drum is fed out, the tip of the auxiliary body engages from the outside with the rear incisal edge of the feeding port of the drum. At the same time, the rotation of the drum in the tape feeding direction is stopped, and once the tape has been fed out, when it is wound around the drum, the tape is wound in the same manner by the feeding part of the tape located between the front cutting edge of the feeding port. A torsion spring-shaped locking member that prevents engagement with the front incisal edge and allows reverse rotation of the drum is installed, and the auxiliary member is inserted into the tape magazine so that it can be moved in and out of the tape magazine. To load the tape, all you have to do is store the tape in the drum and then load the auxiliary body into the tape magazine.This operation is not only extremely simple, but also prevents the drum from rotating accidentally when the tape is fed out. There is no risk that the tape feeding port will not correspond to the tape feeding path provided on the main body of the printing device, causing problems in feeding the tape, and when rewinding the tape, the above-mentioned There is an effect that the rewinding operation can be performed extremely smoothly without the reverse rotation of the drum being prevented by the stop member.
