Ink curing system

Abstract

The invention provides an ink curing system, which comprises a sprayer device, a printing support device, a drying support device, printing media, a hot air device and a cold air device, wherein the printing media are arranged on the printing support device and the drying support device, the sprayer device is used for spraying ink to the printing media to form an inkjet pattern layer, and the hot air device and the cold air device correspond to a heating area and a cooling area of the inkjet pattern layer respectively, so that consumption of a large amount of energy on printing media and a drying support plate in an existing internal heating ink curing system is reduced, direct transfer of energy to surrounding air in an existing external heating ink curing system is also reduced, and the ink curing system has the remarkable advantages of low energy consumption and high efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an inkjet printer, in particular to a curing ink system for an inkjet printer. Background technique [0002] There are three types of inks commonly used in digital inkjet printers: solvent-based, water-based and UV-based. For solvent-based inks and water-based inks, heating is often used to cure them. Commonly used methods of heating and curing ink include internal heating and external heating. [0003] figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the existing internal heating curing ink system. The printing medium 11' is placed on the printing supporting device 12' and the drying supporting device 13', and the printing medium 11' moves from the printing supporting device 12' to the drying supporting device 13'. The nozzle device 14' ejects ink to the printing medium 11' to form an inkjet pattern layer 15'. A heating device 16' is housed in the drying support device 13', and the heat generated by the heating device 16' is transfe...

Problems solved by technology

The other part is the hot air near the edge of the fan, which is blown into the surrounding air from the upper and lower openings between the drying frame 17' and the printing medium 11', as image 3 As shown by the four arrows up and down on the left side of the middle drying rack 17', this part of the hot air is directly discharged into the ambient air without passing through the inkjet pattern layer 15', and this part of the heat has not played a role in heating and drying the inkjet pattern layer 15' role, wasting part of the energy

Therefore, the existing external heating and curing ink system also has the disadvantages of high energy consumption and low efficiency.
