Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of screen printing devices, and particularly relates to a kitchen appliance glass surface screen printing device and a control method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Screen printing on the surface of a kitchen appliance glass is usually completed by using a screen printing machine. The screen printing machine is a machine for printing by using a screen printing plate. It belongs to a kind of printing machine and is mainly used for printing text and images. It is a general term for machines or devices for producing printed matter. The screen printing machine is a machine for printing by using a screen printing plate. The plate is a silk screen made of silk, nylon, copper, steel or stainless steel wire, which is woven into a crisscross pattern with clear horizontal and vertical lines. The working principle of the screen printing machine is mainly based on the principle of stencil printing, that is, the ink is pressed out through the screen holes to form printing.
[0003] For example, the screen printing device and the screen printing method disclosed in the state patent CN106379037B include a silk screen printing plate and a power supply device. The silk screen printing plate includes a conductive screen. The power supply device is electrically connected with the conductive screen. The power supply device is configured to apply a positive voltage or a negative voltage to the conductive screen. The screen printing method includes using a printing head to rub the silk screen printing plate to print ink on a printing object for screen printing. The silk screen printing plate includes a conductive screen. A positive voltage or a negative voltage is applied to the conductive screen during the screen printing process. The screen printing device and the screen printing method can prevent static electricity from being generated.
[0004] However, in actual use, the printing head will scrape the excess ink on the silk screen printing plate to one side and then rub the silk screen printing plate to print ink on the printing object for screen printing. However, ink is a fluid. The accumulation of excess ink will cause the ink to flow back to more printing surface layers of the silk screen printing plate, such as the upper layer of the printing object. This will easily cause uneven printing and paste of the printing object. Therefore, we need to provide a screen printing device that can reduce the backflow of excess ink to cause uneven printing and paste of the printing object. SUMMARY

[0040] In this invention, the glass workpiece 41 to be processed is moved to the underside of the transverse drive rail 3 by the material conveying component 40. Then, the transverse drive rail 3 moves downward through the vertical drive rail 2 to press the printing screen 6 against the top outer wall of the glass workpiece 41. The limit motor 29 is activated by the braking mechanism, and the height of the threaded adjustment and supporting threaded base 31 is adjusted to press the printing adhesive strip 34 against the outer wall of the printing screen 6. The limit mounting bracket 26 drives the braking mechanism to move laterally on the outer wall of the transverse drive rail 3. At the same time, the ink collection box is used to... Ink is supplied through the flow pipe 37 and the flexible connecting pipe 38 to the printing strip 34, and flows out from the overflow port to print on the printing screen 6, completing the ink application process on the glass processing part 41. When the braking mechanism returns, the rubber scraper 35 in the ink cleaning device is pressed down to the surface layer of the printing screen 6. The movement of the ink cleaning device scrapes the excess ink on the printing screen 6 back to one end of the printing screen 6, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the printing area of the printing screen 6 and preventing the glass processing part 41 from being printed unevenly or becoming smeared due to excess ink.
[0041] In Example 2, based on Example 1, the ink blocking mechanism includes a rubber connecting strip 8, an extension plate 9, a hinge 10, and a cavity 11. The rubber connecting strip 8 is divided into two pieces, and the extension plate 9 is divided into four pieces. One outer wall of the rubber connecting strip 8 is fixedly connected to one outer wall of the two extension plates 9. The outer wall of the hinge 10 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the extension plate 9 away from the rubber connecting strip 8. One outer wall of the two opposite extension plates 9 is hinged together by the hinge 10. The top outer wall of the ink blocking mechanism is fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the elastic mesh 7. A cavity 11 is formed in the middle of the ink blocking mechanism. A rubber gasket 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the ink blocking mechanism. An ink removal device is installed inside. The outer wall of one side of the top extension plate 9 in the ink blocking mechanism is provided with a flow groove 14 that is connected vertically. The top outer wall of the elastic screen 7 is provided with a flow opening 13 that is connected to the flow groove 14. The top extension plate 9 away from the flow groove 14 in the ink blocking mechanism is fixedly connected to an inner magnetic suction plate 42. The top outer wall of the rubber squeegee 35 is fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the mounting plate 33 in one of the braking mechanisms. The rubber squeegee 35 is in the shape of an inverted triangle. The bottom outer wall of the rubber squeegee 35 is slidably connected to the bottom outer wall of the printing screen 6. The outer magnetic suction plate 39 is fixedly connected to one side outer wall of the rubber squeegee 35. The outer magnetic suction plate 39 is magnetically connected to the inner magnetic suction plate 42.
[0042] In this invention, the ink blocking mechanism can be transformed from a flat shape to a rhombus shape by splicing multiple rubber connecting strips 8, extension plates 9 and hinges 10. When the braking mechanism moves laterally to print on the printing screen 6 using the inkjet device, it will drive the ink clearing device to move synchronously. When the rubber scraper 35 passes over the ink blocking mechanism, the inverted triangular outer magnetic suction plate 39 can magnetically attract the inner magnetic suction plate 42, causing the ink blocking mechanism to extend from a flat shape to a rhombus shape. At this time, the cavity 11 of the ink blocking mechanism is open, and the excess ink previously collected on one side of the printing screen 6 will flow into the cavity 11 of the ink blocking mechanism from the flow opening 13. This device prevents the ink from flowing back to the glass processing part 41, thus avoiding uneven printing and smearing of the substrate.
[0043] In Example 3, based on Example 2, the ink removal device includes multiple hinges 15, connecting plates 16, Velcro 17, and cleaning wipes 18. The outer wall of the hinges 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the connecting plates 16. The multiple connecting plates 16 are hinged to each other through the hinges 15. One side of the Velcro 17 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the connecting plates 16. One side of the outer wall of the cleaning wipes 18 is attached to the Velcro 17. The outer wall of the cleaning wipes 18 is movably connected to the inner wall of the extension plate 9.
[0044] In this invention, by splicing multiple hinges 15 and connecting plates 16, the ink removal device can synchronously change from a flat shape to a rhomboid shape, just like the ink blocking mechanism. When a certain amount of ink adheres to the ink blocking mechanism, the ink removal device slides in the cavity 11 of the ink blocking mechanism, and the cleaning cotton swab 18 wipes the inner wall of the extension plate 9, thereby cleaning the cavity 11 of the inner ink blocking mechanism. In actual use, if the cleaning cotton swab 18 is contaminated with too much ink for too long due to the long-term operation of this invention, resulting in a decrease in cleaning power, the operator can remove the ink removal device, peel off the cleaning cotton swab 18 with Velcro 17 for cleaning and replacement, and the secondary structure ensures the long-lasting cleaning power of the ink removal device.
[0045] In Example 4, based on Example 3, a hinge 3 19 is fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the top connecting plate 16 in the ink removal device, a support plate 20 is fixedly connected to one side outer wall of the hinge 3 19, a spring hinge 21 is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the bottom connecting plate 16 in the ink removal device, a limit buckle 22 is fixedly connected to one side outer wall of the spring hinge 21, and the outer wall of the support plate 20 away from the hinge 3 19 is movably connected to one side outer wall of the limit buckle 22.
[0046] In this invention, when the ink blocking mechanism changes from a flat shape to a rhomboid shape, the ink removal device in the cavity 11 of the ink blocking mechanism deforms synchronously. The spring hinge 21 in this invention has strong rebound tension. The change of the ink removal device from a flat shape to a rhomboid shape causes the limiting buckle 22 connected to the spring hinge 21 to lose the pressure from the connecting plates 16 at both ends, resulting in a 90° rebound. Similarly, the support plate 20 loses pressure and naturally hangs down around the hinge 19. When the ink removal device is completely rhomboid, the outer wall of the end of the support plate 20 furthest from the hinge 19 will abut against the outer wall of the limiting buckle 22 through its downward movement, thus facilitating the connection. Plate 16 provides support, which prevents the ink removal device and ink blocking mechanism from changing from a rhomboid shape to a flat shape. When the braking mechanism returns to its original position after one round of printing, the rubber scraper 35 passes over the ink blocking mechanism again, squeezing the ink blocking mechanism. The driving force of the braking mechanism is greater than the rebound force of the spring hinge 21, causing the spring hinge 21 to deform under pressure. The limit buckle 22 rotates, and the hinge 19 disengages from the limit buckle 22 after losing pressure, causing the ink blocking mechanism and ink removal device to lose support and simultaneously change from a rhomboid shape to a flat shape, allowing excess ink generated during the previous printing to pass through, thus repeating the process.
[0047] In Example 5, based on Example 3, the wire mesh retainer 5 has a mounting groove 43 on both sides inside. The inner wall of the wire mesh retainer 5 has a diamond-shaped groove that communicates with the mounting groove 43. The outer wall of the rubber connecting strip 8 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the diamond-shaped groove. A bidirectional motor 24 is fixedly connected to the top inner wall of the mounting groove 43. A take-up reel 25 is fixedly connected to the shaft of the bidirectional motor 24. A pull rope 23 is wound around the outer wall of the take-up reel 25. One end of the pull rope 23 passes through the diamond-shaped groove and is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one end of the hinge 15 in the ink removal device.
[0048] This device enables the bidirectional motor 24 to start and drive the take-up reel 25 to rotate, thereby moving the ink removal device in the cavity 11 of the ink blocking mechanism to clean the ink blocking mechanism.
[0049] Example 6: A method for controlling and using a screen printing device for the glass surface of kitchen appliances, comprising any one of the screen printing devices for the glass surface of kitchen appliances described in the above examples, characterized in that:
[0050] Step 1: The glass workpiece 41 to be processed is moved to the underside of the horizontal drive rail 3 by the material conveying component 40. Then, the horizontal drive rail 3 moves down through the vertical drive rail 2 to press the printing screen 6 against the top outer wall of the glass workpiece 41.
[0051] Step 2: The printing strip 34 is pressed onto the outer wall of the printing screen 6 by the braking mechanism. The limiting mounting bracket 26 drives the braking mechanism to move laterally on the outer wall of the transverse drive guide rail 3. At the same time, the ink collection box 36 supplies ink through the flow pipe 37 and the flexible connecting pipe 38 to the printing strip 34, which flows out from the overflow port to print on the printing screen 6, completing the ink application process on the glass processing part 41. Meanwhile, the movement of the braking mechanism allows the outer magnetic plate 39 to attract the inner magnetic plate 42, causing the ink blocking mechanism to extend and preventing ink backflow.
[0052] Step 3: Use the ink removal device to slide within the ink blocking mechanism to remove the ink.
[0053] The working principle and usage process of this invention are as follows: In this invention, the glass workpiece 41 to be processed is moved to the underside of the horizontal drive rail 3 by the material conveying component 40. Then, the horizontal drive rail 3 moves down through the vertical drive rail 2 to press the printing screen 6 against the top outer wall of the glass workpiece 41. The limit motor 29 is activated by the braking mechanism, and the height of the threaded adjustment and supporting threaded base 31 is adjusted to press the printing adhesive strip 34 against the outer wall of the printing screen 6. The limit mounting bracket 26 drives the braking mechanism to move laterally on the outer wall of the horizontal drive rail 3. At the same time, ink is supplied by the ink collection box 36 and transmitted to the printing adhesive strip 34 through the flow pipe 37 and the flexible connecting pipe 38, flowing out from the overflow port to print on the printing screen 6, thus completing the printing of the glass workpiece 41. In the ink application process of screen 1, when the braking mechanism returns, the rubber scraper 35 in the ink removal device is pressed down onto the surface layer of the printing screen 6. The movement of the ink removal device scrapes the excess ink on the printing screen 6 back to one end of the printing screen 6, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the printing area of the printing screen 6 and preventing excess ink from causing uneven printing and smearing on the glass processing part 41. In this invention, the ink blocking mechanism can be transformed from a flat shape to a diamond shape by splicing multiple rubber connecting strips 8, extension plates 9 and hinges 10. When the braking mechanism moves laterally to print on the printing screen 6 using the inkjet device, it will drive the ink removal device to move synchronously. When the rubber scraper 35 passes over the ink blocking mechanism, the inverted triangular outer magnetic plate 39 can magnetically attract the inner magnetic plate. Plate 42 extends the ink blocking mechanism from a flat shape to a rhomboid shape. At this time, the cavity 11 of the ink blocking mechanism is open, and the excess ink previously collected on one side of the printing screen 6 flows into the cavity 11 of the ink blocking mechanism through the flow opening 13. This device prevents ink from flowing back to the glass processing part 41, which would cause uneven printing and smearing on the substrate. In this invention, through the splicing of multiple hinges 15 and connecting plates 16, the ink removal device can synchronously change from a flat shape to a rhomboid shape, just like the ink blocking mechanism. When a certain amount of ink adheres to the ink blocking mechanism, the ink removal device slides in the cavity 11 of the ink blocking mechanism, and the inner wall of the extension plate 9 is wiped by the movement of the cleaning cotton swab 18, thereby completing the cleaning. In actual use, if the cleaning cotton swab 18 becomes contaminated with too much ink due to prolonged operation of the invention, resulting in a decrease in cleaning power, the operator can remove the ink removal device and peel off the cleaning cotton swab 18 using the Velcro 17 for cleaning and replacement. This structure ensures the long-lasting cleaning power of the ink removal device. In this invention, when the ink blocking mechanism changes from a flat shape to a rhomboid shape, the ink removal device in the ink blocking mechanism cavity 11 deforms synchronously. In this invention, the spring hinge 21 has strong rebound tension. The change of the ink removal device from a flat shape to a rhomboid shape causes the limiting buckle 22 connected to the spring hinge 21 to lose the pressure of the upper and lower connecting plates 16, thereby rebounding at a 90° directional angle.Furthermore, the support plate 20 will also be released from pressure, and the support plate 20 will hang naturally around the hinge 3 19 as the axis. When the ink removal device is completely in a diamond shape, the outer wall of the end of the support plate 20 away from the hinge 3 19 will support the connecting plate 16 by hanging down and just abutting against the outer wall of the limit buckle 22. This support will keep the diamond shape of the ink removal device and the ink blocking mechanism from changing into a flat shape. When the braking mechanism reciprocates for one round of printing preparation and returns to its original position, the rubber squeegee 35 passes over the ink blocking mechanism again. The passage of the rubber squeegee 35 will affect the ink blocking mechanism. The mechanism applies pressure, but the driving force of the braking mechanism is greater than the rebound force of the spring hinge 21, causing the spring hinge 21 to deform under pressure. The limit latch 22 rotates, and the hinge 19, after losing its pressure, disengages from the limit latch 22, causing the ink blocking mechanism and ink removal device to lose support. Simultaneously, the ink changes from a diamond shape to a flat shape, allowing excess ink from the previous reciprocating printing to pass through. This reciprocating motion, through which the bidirectional motor 24 starts, drives the take-up reel 25 to rotate, thereby moving the ink removal device within the cavity 11 of the ink blocking mechanism to clean it.
