To solve the problem of difficulty to open the box as the adhesive tape cutters do not have the function of cutting box-opening adhesive tapes in the prior art, the embodiment provides a novel handle type adhesive tape cutter. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the handle type adhesive tape cutter mainly includes a fixed base plate 1, a handheld mechanism 2, a distribution mechanism 3, a control mechanism 4 and a box opener 5, wherein the handheld mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to the fixed base plate 1. For the convenience of holding the handle type adhesive tape cutter, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, one side of the handheld mechanism 2 is designed with a plurality of sunken curved surfaces adaptive to the hand shape. The distribution mechanism 3 and the control mechanism 4 are arranged at an interval, both are located above the handheld mechanism 2, and are connected to the fixed base plate 1. The distribution mechanism 3 can rotate relative to the fixed base plate 1 under action of an external force. The control mechanism 4 mainly includes a side plate 41, a roller 42 and a cutting blade 43, wherein the side plate 41 is parallelly arranged relative to the fixed base plate 1; the roller 42 is rotatably mounted between the fixed base plate 1 and the side plate 41; the cutting blade 43 is located above the roller 42; both ends of the cutting blade 43 are fixedly connected to the fixed base plate 1 and the side plate 41, respectively; the box opener 5 can not only be mounted on the side plate 41, but also be mounted on the fixed base plate 1. In the FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, by taking a condition that the box opener is mounted on the side plate 41 as an example, the box opening blade 51 is arranged in the box opener 5 to cut the packaging adhesive tape to open the box. When the box opener 5 is mounted on the side plate 41, the box opening blade 51 can stretch out or retracts relative to the side plate 41. When the box opener 5 is mounted on the fixed base plate 1, the box opening blade 51 can stretch out or retracts relative to the fixed base plate 1 and the side plate 41.

The specific working principle of the handle type adhesive tape cutter is as follows: when the cutter is used for packaging, the adhesive tape roll is sleeved on the distribution mechanism, then the end of the adhesive tape bypasses the roller in the control mechanism and is adhered to a pre-packaged box body, and then the handheld mechanism is held to move along the packaging box body. As the end of the adhesive tape has been fixedly adhered to the pre-packaged box body, the handheld mechanism moves to drive the distribution mechanism to rotate relative to the fixed base plate to drive the adhesive tape roller sleeved on the distribution mechanism to rotate so as to release the adhesive tape till it is adhered completely. The tail end of the handheld mechanism is lifted upwards, so that the cutting blade in the control mechanism is connected to the adhesive tape to cut the adhesive tape conveniently and rapidly. When it is necessary to perform the box opening operation, the box opening blade in the box opener stretches out, and the handheld mechanism is held to connect the box opening blade to the adhesive tape. The box opening blade moves along the box opening of the packaging box to incise the adhesive tape on the boxing opening, so as to achieve rapid opening of a box. When the box opener is not used, the box opening blade retracts, so that the handle type adhesive tape cutter is safely used.

The structure of the box opener can be specifically designed according to an actual demand. The embodiment provides two specific box opener structures. However, in an actual using process, the structure of the box opener is not limited to the two structures provided below.

As shown in FIG. 1, the box opener 5 in the adhesive tape cutter is the art knife and specifically includes the shell 52, the box opening blade 51 and the locating lock 53. The shell 52 is fixedly mounted on the side plate 41; an accommodation space is formed between the shell 52 and the side plate 41; the shell 52 is provided with the slideway 511 communicated with the accommodation space; the box opening blade 51 is located in the accommodation space formed between the shell 52 and the side plate 41; the box opening blade 51 is provided with the free end and the connecting end; the locating lock 53 is mounted in the slideway 511, is connected to the connecting end of the box opening blade 51, and pushed by an external force, slides along the slideway 511 to drive the box opening blade 51 to slide in the accommodation space, so that the free end of the box opening blade 51 stretches out or retracts relative to the side plate 41.

As shown in FIG. 2, the box opener 5 in the adhesive tape cutter mainly includes the shell 52, the box opening blade 51 and the rotary knob 54. The shell 52 is fixedly mounted on the side plate 41; the accommodation space is formed between the shell 52 and the side plate 41, and the side wall of the accommodation space is provided with the slideway; the shell 52 is provided with the mounting groove communicated with the accommodation space; the box opening blade 51 is located in the accommodation space formed between the shell 52 and the side plate 41; the box opening blade 51 is provided with the free end and the connecting end; the rotary knob 54 is rotatably mounted in the mounting groove in the shell 52, is connected to the connecting end of the box opening blade 51, and drives the box opening blade 51 to slide along the slideway in the accommodation space when being rotated. Moreover, in the rotating process of the box opening blade 51, the free end of the box opening blade 51 stretches out or retracts relative to the side plate 41.

The adhesive tape cutters in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 both are described by taking a condition that the box opener 5 is mounted on the side plate 41 as an example. The box opener 5 can further be arranged on the fixed base plate 1. Thanks to invariable structure of the box opener 5, the box opener is no longer described repeatedly herein.

To facilitate air discharge between the packaging adhesive tape and the box body, as an improvement of the technical solution, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the control mechanism 4 is further provided with the smoothing plate 44.

When the smoothing plate is arranged, the adhesive tape adhered to the box body can be struck off on the box body through the smoothing plate, so as to discharge air between the adhesive tape and the box body, thereby improving the degree of fastness of the adhesive tape adhered to the box body.

To ensure that the adhesive tape is capable of moving along the roller in the controller all the time so as to prevent deviation of the adhesive tape, as an improvement of the technical solution, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the handle type adhesive tape cutter is further provided with the guide plate 6. One end of the guide plate 6 is hinged with the handheld mechanism 2, and the other end thereof extends to the side of the roller 42 to be adjacent to the roller 42. Preferably, a torsional spring is arranged between the guide plate 6 and the handheld mechanism 2, so that the end of the guide plate 6 adjacent to the roller 42 is close to the side of the roller 42 all the time.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the distribution mechanism 3 in the adhesive tape cutter mainly includes the rotating wheel 31, the positioning shaft and the limiting nut 32. The center of the rotating wheel 31 is provided with the mounting hole penetrating through both sides; one end of the positioning shaft passes through the mounting hole in the rotating wheel 31 and is fixedly connected to the fixed base plate 1, and the rotating wheel 31 is capable of rotating relative to the positioning shaft; and the limiting nut 32 is mounted at the other end of the positioning shaft in a threaded manner to limit the rotating wheel 31.

The distribution mechanism mainly fixes the adhesive tape roll through the rotating wheel, and the rotating wheel rotates relative to the positioning shaft, so as to drive the adhesive tape roll to rotate. To increase the frictional force between the rotating wheel and the adhesive tape roller, so as to prevent the adhesive tape roll from rotating relative to the rotating wheel, as an improvement of the technical solution, the side wall of the rotating wheel contacting the adhesive tape roll is provided with anti-skid stripes.
