In order to prevent the printing nozzles from contacting the printing object due to the deformation of some parts of the trolley lower plate, the height adjusting mechanism of the corresponding part is adjusted to forcibly lift the trolley lower plate at the part to a suitable position, so that the flatness of the trolley lower plate is restored to a suitable state. After the trolley lower plate at the part is lifted, the printing nozzles no longer contact the printing object, the printing nozzles are protected, and the printing effect of the printing nozzles installed on the trolley lower plate is improved when the flatness of the trolley lower plate is restored. By rotating the connecting column in the height adjusting mechanism, the distance between the upper screw rod and the lower screw rod can be lengthened / shortened. After the connecting column is rotated, the sinking of the trolley lower plate at the part is changed with the change of the height of the lower screw rod, and the height of the printing nozzles is changed synchronously with the change of the height of the trolley lower plate. After adjustment is completed, the first movable nut is rotated to tightly attach the first movable nut to the top of the connecting column, the first movable nut is locked with the top of the connecting column, and then the second movable nut is rotated to tightly attach the second movable nut to the bottom of the connecting column, so that the lower screw rod is locked. The height of the trolley lower plate at the part is locked, and the sinking of the trolley lower plate at the part is solved.
[0048] During the printing process, the surface of the printing object is often convex. When the convexity touches the anti-collision trigger piece, the convexity drives the anti-collision trigger piece to swing, the anti-collision trigger piece drives the anti-collision main beam to swing, and the anti-collision main beam drives the swing piece to swing. The detection part of the swing piece will be out of the detection area of the detection mechanism when swinging. When the detection mechanism detects that the detection part of the swing piece is not located in the detection area, a signal can be sent to the platform carrying the printing object. The platform stops moving after receiving the signal, avoiding damage to the printing nozzles caused by the convexity. The first balance assembly and the second balance assembly are used to keep the balance of the anti-collision main beam. When the anti-collision main beam swings, the first balance assembly and the second balance assembly can accelerate the speed of returning of the anti-collision main beam.
[0049] When the angle of the anti-collision main beam needs to be adjusted, the locking piece is unlocked, and the connection plate and the rotating plate are unlocked. At this time, the angle of the connection plate is adjusted to cover the angle of the anti-collision main beam. After the angle of the connection plate is adjusted, the locking piece is locked, and the connection plate and the rotating plate are locked. At this time, the angle adjustment of the anti-collision main beam is completed.
[0050] After the printing head works for a long time, the printing head will be contaminated by ink or dirt, so that the printing head cannot work smoothly. In order to ensure that the printing head can work smoothly, the printing head needs to be cleaned. The air suction port is connected with the air suction mechanism, and the two liquid inlet pipes are connected with the cleaning liquid output mechanism. When the printer head needs to be cleaned, the printing trolley of the printer is moved above the cleaning device, the two strip-shaped liquid outlets are aligned with the printer head on the bottom surface of the printing trolley, and the cleaning liquid output mechanism outputs the cleaning liquid. The cleaning liquid passes through the liquid inlet pipe, the liquid guide groove and the liquid outlet cavity in turn and is sprayed from the strip-shaped liquid outlet hole to the printer head, so as to clean the printer head. At the same time, the air suction mechanism sucks air to generate negative pressure in the air suction cavity, and the strip-shaped air suction hole sucks away the dirt cleaned from the printer head, so as to automatically clean the printer head, saving time and effort. The strip-shaped liquid outlet hole and the strip-shaped air suction hole are inclined from left to right, which is convenient for cleaning the dead angle of the printer head which is not easy to clean. The cover plate and the containing groove are detachably connected.
[0051] When the printing trolley is moved above the cleaning assembly, the bottom protruding part of the printing trolley is in contact with the top surface of the top block, the base is pressed downward, the base is moved downward by a certain distance, the distance between the strip-shaped liquid outlet hole and the printer head is kept at the most appropriate distance, the sprayed cleaning liquid is convenient for cleaning the printer head, and the strip-shaped air suction hole is convenient for sucking away the dirt cleaned. After cleaning, the printing trolley is removed, and the base is moved upward and reset under the action of the spring. In order to prevent the spring from rebounding too much and ejecting the base, the base will drive the two side limiting blocks to rise until they abut against the limiting top block at the top of the limiting column during the resetting upward movement of the base. The top block prevents the base from being separated, the guide block makes the printing trolley not in contact with the cover plate, the guide slope is convenient for the printing trolley to move to the top surface of the guide block.
