The invention discloses an air circulation
system for a printing
machine. The air circulation
system comprises n printing color cells which are arranged in parallel, wherein n is larger than or equal to 2. Each printing color
cell comprises a printing
drying channel, a color set air supply draught fan, an
exhaust valve and an air return valve, wherein an inlet of the printing
drying channel communicates with an outlet of the color
cell air supply draught fan. An outlet of the printing
drying channel of each printing color
cell communicates with a main
exhaust pipe through the corresponding
exhaust valve, and the outlet of the printing drying channel of each printing color cell communicates with a main air return
pipe through the corresponding air return valve. An inlet of the color cell air supply draught fan of each printing color cell communicates with the main air return
pipe, and an outlet of the main
exhaust pipe communicates with an inlet of a main exhaust draught fan. An outlet of the main exhaust draught fan is led to a
waste gas treatment device, and a certain number of exhaust valves are opened for controlling the air extracting amount of the main exhaust draught fan. By means of the air circulation
system for the printing
machine,
waste gas of the printing color cells large in ink feeding amount can be directly discharged,
waste gas of the printing color cells small in ink feeding amount enters the main air return
pipe to be cycled, the waste gas treatment efficiency is improved, and the waste gas treatment cost is reduced.
