Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of stirring components, specifically to an ink stirring component for a printing press ink control system. Background Technology

[0002] In the printing industry, the uniformity of ink mixing is directly related to the quality of printed products. To reduce the workload of manual mixing, existing technologies mostly employ mechanical methods for ink mixing. However, in the process of mechanical ink mixing, the mixing structure is mostly fixed, with a fixed mixing position and form, lacking the flexibility of manual mixing. This easily leads to ink settling at the bottom during mixing, which is detrimental to the uniformity of ink mixing. Furthermore, if air bubbles are generated inside the ink during mixing, it is difficult to quickly remove and eliminate them, delaying mixing efficiency and affecting the ink's performance. Therefore, we propose an ink mixing component for a printing press ink control system. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an ink stirring component for a printing press ink control system to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solution: an ink stirring assembly for a printing press ink control system, comprising a stirring cylinder, wherein four sets of protruding turbulence blocks are integrally provided in the middle of the inner surface of the stirring cylinder, the four sets of turbulence blocks are arranged in two opposite angles, and a positioning ring is integrally provided in the upper part of the inner surface of the stirring cylinder, wherein a mating interface is provided in the middle of the four sides of the upper surface of the positioning ring.

[0005] A sealing cap is installed on the upper surface of the positioning ring. A protruding docking block is integrally provided on the center of each of the four sides of the lower surface of the sealing cap. The docking block is embedded in the docking interface. An integrated control computer is fixedly installed at the front end of the upper surface of the sealing cap. A limit port is opened in the center of the upper surface of the sealing cap. A ring-shaped limit groove is opened in the center of the inner surface of the limit port. A hollow stirring rod is inserted through the inner surface of the sealing cap through the limit port. A limit ring is fitted on the outer surface of the part of the stirring rod that contacts the limit port. The outer surface of the limit ring is embedded in the limit groove opened in the center of the inner surface of the limit port.

[0006] A motor is installed at the upper end of the stirring rod, and the output end of the motor is connected to the middle of the upper end of the stirring rod by an insertion-connection. A storage battery arranged in a ring is fitted on the upper part of the outer surface of the stirring rod. A guide ball is integrally provided at the lower end of the stirring rod. Several stirring blades are integrally protruding on the outer surface of the stirring rod, and the stirring blades are arranged in a "+" shape on the four sides of the outer surface of the stirring rod.

[0007] The stirring blades on the upper part of the outer surface of the stirring rod are integrally equipped with scrapers at the ends away from the stirring rod. A hollow temperature control cavity is opened inside the stirring blades. The horizontally arranged stirring blades are equipped with electric cooling tubes through the temperature control cavity, and the vertically arranged stirring blades are equipped with electric heating tubes through the temperature control cavity. The electric heating tubes, electric cooling tubes, and batteries are all electrically connected. The batteries are also electrically connected to the motor and the integrated control computer.

[0008] As a further improvement of the present invention, a discharge port is provided in the middle of the lower surface of the mixing cylinder, and a thread is provided on the inner surface of the discharge port. A first sealing nut is spirally inserted into the mixing cylinder through the inner surface of the discharge port.

[0009] As a further improvement of the present invention, a filling port is provided at the rear end of the upper surface of the sealing cap, and a thread is provided on the inner surface of the filling port. A second sealing nut is screwed into the sealing cap through the inner surface of the filling port.

[0010] As a further improvement of the present invention, handles are welded to both sides of the upper surface of the sealing cover.

[0011] As a further improvement of the present invention, a fixing frame is fitted onto the outer surface of the motor, and the lower surface of the fixing frame is connected to the upper surface of the sealing cover.

[0012] As a further improvement of the present invention, the outer surface of the guide ball is integrally and uniformly provided with a plurality of protruding arc-shaped guide blades.

[0013] As a further improvement of the present invention, a few disturbance ports are provided on the side of the scraper that contacts the inner surface of the mixing cylinder, and the disturbance ports are set in a matching state with the disturbance blocks.

[0014] As a further improvement of the present invention, the lengths of the plurality of stirring blades provided on the outer surface of the stirring rod are not equal, and the lengths of the plurality of stirring blades provided on the outer surface of the stirring rod gradually increase from the bottom to the top.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0016] This invention sets the lengths of several stirring blades to be unequal, with the length gradually increasing from bottom to top, creating a tornado-like shape. In this configuration, during ink stirring, the tornado-like shape results in less stirring force at the bottom of the ink and more at the top, thus controlling the ink to be stirred in a tornado-like manner. The stirring force at the top attracts the ink from the bottom, reducing sedimentation that easily occurs during stirring. Furthermore, the attraction at the top guides air bubbles generated during ink stirring towards the surface, reducing the air bubble content within the ink and facilitating their rapid elimination. This improves stirring efficiency while minimizing the impact on ink performance.

[0017] In controlling the ink to exhibit a tornado-like stirring state, this invention disrupts the outer stirring direction of the ink by using a turbulence block. This facilitates the re-attracting of the disrupted ink for stirring, thus avoiding the problem of insufficient stirring caused by the ink flowing in the same direction for a long time. At the same time, by controlling the heating and cooling tubes during the stirring process, the temperature required for ink stirring can be adjusted, which is beneficial for the ink to be stirred and mixed at a suitable temperature, further ensuring the ink performance while improving the uniformity of stirring.

[0018] In the process of uniformly stirring ink, the present invention uses a scraper installed on the stirring blade to rotate synchronously with the stirring blade. When it comes into contact with the inner wall of the stirring assembly, it scrapes and cleans the inner wall of the stirring assembly, thereby reducing the problem of ink sticking to the inner wall of the stirring assembly. This helps to reduce ink loss and facilitates subsequent cleaning of the inside of the stirring assembly. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 8 As shown, an ink stirring assembly for a printing press ink control system includes a stirring cylinder 1. Four sets of protruding turbulence blocks 2 are integrally provided in the middle of the inner surface of the stirring cylinder 1. The four sets of turbulence blocks 2 are arranged in two opposite angles. A discharge port 5 is provided in the middle of the lower surface of the stirring cylinder 1. The inner surface of the discharge port 5 is threaded. A first sealing nut 6 is spirally inserted into the inner surface of the stirring cylinder 1 through the discharge port 5. A positioning ring 3 is integrally provided in the upper part of the inner surface of the stirring cylinder 1. The upper surface of the positioning ring 3 has four connecting interfaces 4 in the middle of its four sides.

[0031] A sealing cover 7 is installed on the upper surface of the positioning ring 3. A protruding docking block 8 is integrally provided on the lower surface of the sealing cover 7 on the four sides. The docking block 8 is embedded in the docking interface 4. A feeding port 9 is provided at the rear end of the upper surface of the sealing cover 7. A thread is provided on the inner surface of the feeding port 9. A second sealing nut 10 is installed in a spiral manner through the inner surface of the feeding port 9. Handles 11 are welded on both sides of the upper surface of the sealing cover 7. An integrated control computer 12 is fixedly installed at the front end of the upper surface of the sealing cover 7. A limit port 13 is provided in the middle of the upper surface of the sealing cover 7. A ring-shaped limit groove is provided in the middle of the inner surface of the limit port 13. A hollow stirring rod 16 is inserted through the inner surface of the limit port 13. A limit ring 17 is sleeved on the outer surface of the part of the stirring rod 16 that contacts the limit port 13. The outer surface of the limit ring 17 is embedded in the limit groove provided in the middle of the inner surface of the limit port 13.

[0032] A motor 15 is installed at the upper end of the stirring rod 16. The output end of the motor 15 is connected to the middle of the upper end of the stirring rod 16 by an insertion-type connection. A fixing frame 14 is installed on the outer surface of the motor 15. The lower surface of the fixing frame 14 is connected to the upper surface of the sealing cover 7. A ring-shaped storage battery 18 is installed on the upper part of the outer surface of the stirring rod 16. A guide ball 19 is integrally provided at the lower end of the stirring rod 16. A number of protruding arc-shaped guide blades are integrally and evenly provided on the outer surface of the guide ball 19. A number of stirring blades 20 are integrally protruding on the outer surface of the stirring rod 16. The stirring blades 20 are arranged in a "+" shape on the four sides of the outer surface of the stirring rod 16. The lengths of the stirring blades 20 on the outer surface of the stirring rod 16 are not equal. The lengths of the stirring blades 20 on the outer surface of the stirring rod 16 gradually increase from the bottom to the top.

[0033] The stirring blade 20, located on the upper part of the outer surface of the stirring rod 16, has an integrally formed scraper 21 at its end away from the stirring rod 16. The scraper 21 has a small turbulence port 22 on the side that contacts the inner surface of the stirring drum 1. The turbulence port 22 is matched with the turbulence block 2. The stirring blade 20 has a hollow temperature control cavity 23 inside. The horizontally arranged stirring blade 20 has an electric cooling tube 25 installed in the temperature control cavity 23. The vertically arranged stirring blade 20 has an electric heating tube 24 installed in the temperature control cavity 23. The electric heating tube 24, the electric cooling tube 25, and the battery 18 are all electrically connected. The battery 18 is also electrically connected to the motor 15 and the integrated control computer 12.

[0034] In use, the sealing cap 7 carrying the stirring rod 16 can first be installed and connected to the stirring cylinder 1. The mating blocks 8 on the four sides of the lower surface of the sealing cap 7 are then embedded into the mating interface 4 on the upper surface of the positioning ring 3 to complete the limiting installation between the sealing cap 7 and the stirring cylinder 1. At this time, the second sealing nut 10, which is screwed on the sealing cap 7, can be unscrewed to open the feeding port 9. The stirring personnel can then add the raw materials for ink stirring into the stirring cylinder 1 in the order of addition through the feeding port 9. After the addition is completed, the second sealing nut 10 is screwed back into the feeding port 9 to complete the sealing.

[0035] Secondly, once the ink raw materials are added, the integrated control computer 12 can control the motor 15 to start. The motor 15 drives the stirring rod 16 to rotate, working in conjunction with the stirring blades 20 to stir the ink. Because the stirring blades 20 have unequal lengths and gradually increase in length from bottom to top along the stirring rod 16, they create a tornado-like pattern. In this situation, the stirring blades 20, in conjunction with the guide ball 19, control the ink stirring force from a lower intensity at the bottom to a higher intensity at the top, thus controlling the ink to exhibit a tornado-like stirring state. Furthermore, the higher stirring force at the top helps to agitate the ink at the bottom... The suction of the ink at the top helps reduce the sedimentation that easily occurs during the stirring process. Furthermore, the suction at the top of the ink helps guide the air bubbles generated during the stirring process toward the water surface, facilitating their rapid expulsion and elimination. Simultaneously, the continuous suction and stirring of the ink at the bottom further improves the uniformity of the stirring. During the tornado-like stirring process of the ink, when the stirred ink comes into contact with the turbulence block 2, the stirring direction of the ink on the outside can be disturbed, so that the disturbed ink can be re-attracted and stirred, thereby avoiding the problem of insufficient stirring caused by the ink being stirred in the same direction for a long time.

[0036] Meanwhile, during the process of stirring the ink in a tornado-like state, the integrated control computer 12 controls the corresponding activation of the heating tube 24 and the cooling tube 25. The heating and cooling of the heating tube 24 or the cooling tube 25 controls the temperature change of the stirring blade 20, and then the stirring blade 20 drives the ink to adjust the temperature, thereby achieving the adjustment of the temperature required for ink stirring. This is conducive to the ink being stirred and mixed at a suitable temperature, further ensuring the ink performance while improving the uniformity of stirring.

[0037] Finally, during the process of stirring the ink by the stirring blade 20, the scraper 21 will rotate synchronously with the stirring blade 20 and scrape and clean the inner wall of the stirring cylinder 1 when it comes into contact with the inner wall of the stirring cylinder 1, thereby reducing the ink adhesion problem on the inner wall of the stirring component. This is beneficial to reduce ink loss and facilitates subsequent cleaning of the inside of the stirring component. During the cleaning process of the inside of the stirring cylinder 1 by the scraper 21, the turbulence port 22 matches the turbulence block 2, which can avoid the scraper 21 being blocked by the turbulence block 2. After the ink is stirred, the first sealing nut 6 can be screwed out from the discharge port 5, and the stirred ink can be discharged from the stirring cylinder 1 through the discharge port 5.

[0038] The preferred embodiments of the present invention disclosed above are merely illustrative of the invention. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the invention to any specific implementation. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of the invention, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize the invention.
