Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The thermal printing sheet is an important component of a thermal printer, which is composed of a row of heating elements. These elements can quickly generate high temperature when passing through a certain current. When the medium coating encounters these elements, the temperature will rise in a very short time, and the medium coating will react chemically to show color. In the production process, a thick film slurry printing device is needed to print thick film electronic slurry onto the thermal printing sheet substrate and then solidify to form a circuit, so that the thermal element can work normally.
[0003] The existing thick film slurry printing device is usually a silk screen printing machine. The thick film electronic slurry is placed on the surface of the silk screen, and the thick film electronic slurry is printed onto the surface of the thermal printing sheet substrate through the movement of the squeegee. It can usually only be printed on one side. The circuits on both sides of the thermal printing sheet substrate exist, and double-sided printing is required during production. In the prior art, manual operation is usually used to turn over the thermal printing sheet substrate after single-sided printing, and then print the other side of the thermal printing sheet substrate again. In addition, the circuits on both sides of the thermal printing sheet substrate are not the same, and two silk screens are required during printing. In actual operation, the printing process is relatively complicated, the degree of automation is low, and after printing one side, the thick film slurry has a certain flowability due to the lack of drying and solidification. During the turning process of the thermal printing sheet substrate, the thick film slurry is gathered or dripped under the combined action of gravity and centrifugal force, which affects the printing quality of the thermal printing sheet substrate, especially the quality of the thermal printing sheet substrate printed first.

Another first electric cylinder 704 drives the ink return blade 703 to descend. At the same time, the second motor 202 is reversed to drive the ink return blade 703 to move to the original position to evenly smear the thick film paste on the surface of the screen 706 for the next printing. The third electric cylinder 301 drives the vacuum chuck 302 and the thermal printing sheet substrate to descend to the rotating frame 500, i.e., the clamping position. The fourth electric cylinder 601 is started to drive the clamping plate 602 to clamp the thermal printing sheet substrate. The adsorption of the thermal printing sheet substrate by the vacuum chuck 302 is released. At this time, the electric cylinder is started.

The heating and warming part 1201 is started to heat. The electrode printing pattern on the thermal printing sheet substrate after single-sided printing is dried and cured. The fan 1301 makes the hot air flow. The air extractor 1302 extracts the air in the multiple splicable temperature insulation covers 1101 and collects impurities. After a certain period of drying and curing, the temperature insulation cover opening and closing part 1102 drives the splicable temperature insulation covers 1101 to move away from each other to avoid interfering with the work of other components. Then, the third electric cylinder 301 continues to drive the vacuum chuck 302 to descend to the turnover position. The first motor 402 is started to rotate the rotating disc 501 to a certain degree to turn over the thermal printing sheet substrate. Then, the third electric cylinder 301 drives the vacuum chuck 302 to rise to the clamping position.Continue to adsorb the heat sensitive printing sheet substrate, the fourth electric cylinder 601 drives the clamping plate 602 away from the heat sensitive printing sheet substrate, the third electric cylinder 301 drives the vacuum chuck 302 and the heat sensitive printing sheet substrate to rise to the printing position, in the process, the fourth motor 1001 is started, the fourth motor 1001 drives the two gears 1002 to rotate, the rack 1003 drives the two screen frames 705 to move relatively, the printed screen 706 moves to the position away from the printing area, the screen 706 provided with another pattern is moved to the printing area, and the conversion frame 902 is driven to rise and fall by the second electric cylinder 901, so that the screen 706 is at the printing position, then the third motor 801 and the first electric cylinder 704 controlling the scraper 702 to rise and fall are started, the above operation is repeated to print the thick film paste of the surface, after printing, the third electric cylinder 301 drives the vacuum chuck 302 and the double-sided printed heat sensitive printing sheet substrate to descend, in the printing process, the processing personnel can install the new heat sensitive printing sheet substrate on the top of the next vacuum chuck 302, when the printed heat sensitive printing sheet substrate is moved to the next station by the second motor 202 driving the sliding feeding plate 101 after printing, the heat sensitive printing sheet substrate of the previous station is just moved to the printing area, and the above operation is repeated to print the thick film paste on the heat sensitive printing sheet substrate.
