Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an anti-caking ink dispensing station. Background Art

[0002] Ink (printing ink) is a key material used in printing, creating designs and text on substrates through printing or inkjet printing. Ink consists of a primary and secondary component, which is uniformly mixed and repeatedly rolled to form a viscous, colloidal fluid. It is composed of a binder (resin), pigment, filler, additive, and solvent. It is used in a variety of printing applications, including books and periodicals, packaging and decoration, architectural decoration, and electronic circuit boards. As social demand increases, the variety and production of inks are expanding and growing accordingly.

[0003] Due to the special properties of ink, if it remains in a non-circulating state for a long time, it will condense into lumps, resulting in the waste of ink. Therefore, the ink needs to be kept flowing periodically. However, the current ink storage mechanism is difficult to keep the ink stored inside in a flowing state for a long time, which makes the storage of ink more difficult. At the same time, since the color usage requirements of each ink are different, storing inks of different colors separately further increases the storage difficulty. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention aims to provide an anti-caking ink dispensing station that stores individual ink tanks in an integrated manner within a station body, thereby significantly improving ink storage and retrieval efficiency while maintaining a long-term flow state.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: through the design of the circulation pump, the ink and other raw materials in the main storage tank and the auxiliary storage tank can maintain a flowing state for a long time to avoid condensation. At the same time, it is equipped with an internal air pressure balancing mechanism.
