The invention also discloses a corresponding process method. On the basis of an electrofluid spray printing technology, the characteristics of high flexibility and high-resolution spray printing are realized; the curved surface spray printing can be realized at high quality; the equipment is applicable to patterning of various pattern curved surfaces, typically such as 3D mobile phone cover panel patterning processes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the related technical field of surface patterning of curved objects, and more specifically, relates to a 3D curved surface electrospray printing patterning device and method. Background technique [0002] Typical 3D surfaces include components such as 3D mobile phone covers. Since the development of smart phones, appearance design has become the focus of competition, and curved screens are popular for their unique visual effects and operating experience. The 3D curved surface cover is thin, transparent and clean, anti-fingerprint, anti-glare, hard, scratch-resistant, and weather-resistant. The curved edge touch function brings excellent touch feel, which can solve the problem of insufficient antenna layout space and enhance Features such as the receiving function, thus producing obvious advantages. For curved surface printing such as 3D mobile phone cover, it refers to the production of opaque colored areas, logos, button ico...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] The curved surface printing process in the prior art usually includes the following categories: screen printing technology, which uses a scraper to apply pressure on the graphic part of the printing plate to squeeze the ink from the mesh to the substrate. The ink layer is thick, but the curved surface It is difficult to ensure that the shape of the substrate, screen frame and squeegee are consistent during printing, and ink accumulation is serious at places where the curvature changes sharply; OCA composite printing technology is to composite printed graphics and texts on the target surface through OCA optical glue, and the process is relatively complicated; Coloring technology is to replace other ions in the superficial layer of glass with non-ferrous metal ions to present a color, the color is lighter, and the process cost is high; in addition, there are other technologies such as photolitho
