[0053] The head end of the first conveyor belt device 2 is connected to the end of the discharge channel 1-1 of the vibration plate feeding device 1. After the aluminum-plastic cover enters the first conveyor belt device 2, it is driven by the first conveyor belt device 2 to move along the length direction of the first conveyor belt device 2, wherein the first conveyor belt device 2 continuously operates.

[0054] The first conveyor belt device 2 is divided into a plasma treatment station 3, a pad printing station 4 and a heating and drying station 5 in sequence along the forward direction, and performs plasma treatment, printing and heating and drying operations on the aluminum-plastic cover respectively.

When the first lifting frame 7-3 moves up and down, it can drive the first limiting bar 7-4 downward into the first limiting groove 7-5. The extended part of the first limiting bar 7-4 can cut off the channel on the first conveyor belt device 2 to prevent the aluminum-plastic cover from passing through.

[0063] The second vertical telescopic cylinder 7-7 is fixedly mounted on the second fixed frame 7-6, and connected to the frame 17 through the second fixed frame 7-6. A second lifting frame 7-8 is arranged on the cylinder shaft of the second vertical telescopic cylinder 7-7. Two connecting arms of the second lifting frame 7-8 are located outside the two first side bars 2-2. Second limiting bars 7-9 extending inward are arranged on the two connecting arms of the second lifting frame 7-8. A second limiting groove 7-10 is provided on the first side bar at a position corresponding to the second limiting bar 7-9. The inner end of the second limiting bar 7-9 extends out of the inner side edge of the first side bar 2-2.

[0065] A first sensor 7-11 is arranged next to the first limit groove 7-5, and a second sensor 7-12 is arranged next to the second limit groove 7-10. The first sensor 7-11 and the second sensor 7-12 are used to detect whether an aluminum-plastic cover passes through, and control the extension and retraction of the first vertical telescopic cylinder 7-2 and the second vertical telescopic cylinder 7-7 according to the detection signal.

[0066] The plasma processing device 6 includes an XYZ three-axis translation mechanism 6-1 and a plasma cleaner 6-2.

The third fixed frame 8-1 is located at the end of the pad printing station 4. A third lifting frame 8-3 is arranged on the cylinder shaft of the third vertical telescopic cylinder 8-2. Two limiting arms are arranged on the third lifting frame 8-3, and the two limiting arms correspond to the two channels on the first conveyor belt device 2. When the two limiting arms of the third lifting frame 8-3 are located above the first conveyor belt device 2, the aluminum-plastic cover can smoothly pass through the two channels on the first conveyor belt device 2; when the third vertical telescopic cylinder 8-2 drives the third lifting frame 8-3 to move downward, the two limiting arms enter the two channels on the first conveyor belt device 2, cut off the two channels on the first conveyor belt device 2, and block the aluminum-plastic cover so that it cannot move with the first conveyor belt device 2, thereby facilitating the subsequent clamping and positioning operation.

[0070] The clamping and positioning device 9 comprises two guide rods 9-1 spanning above the first conveying device, and sliding plates 9-2 are respectively arranged on both sides of the first conveying device, and the sliding plates 9-2 are slidably connected with two guide rails, and a driving mechanism is arranged on the two sliding plates 9-2 to drive the two sliding plates 9-2 to move closer to or farther from each other, and a mounting block 9-3 is arranged on the inner side surface of the two sliding plates 9-2, and a plurality of positioning fingers 9-4 arranged side by side are detachably mounted on the mounting block 9-3, and an arc groove is arranged at the end of the positioning finger 9-4, and arc positioning grooves 9-5 corresponding to the positioning finger 9-4 are respectively arranged on both sides of the second intermediate gear bar 2-7.

A third sensor 10-3 and a fourth sensor 10-4 are respectively arranged at both sides of the first conveying device at a certain interval. The aluminum-plastic cover carried by the first conveying device passes through the third sensor 10-3, the fourth sensor 10-4 and the four lifting frames in sequence.

A mold mounting plate 11-2 is connected to the lower part of the pad printing translation mechanism 11-1. Two rows of print heads 11-3 are detachably mounted on the mold mounting plate 11-2. A printing plate 11-4 is arranged below the pad printing translation mechanism 11-1.

[0073] The printing head 11-3 is driven to reciprocate above the printing plate 11-4 and above the first conveyor belt device 2 through the pad printing translation mechanism 11-1. At the same time, the printing plate 11-4 moves back and forth, so that the image area of ​​the printing plate 11-4 moves to the bottom of the ink box to add ink and then reset to wait for the printing head 11-3 to dip in ink.

[0074] Since some ink may still remain on the print head 11-3 after the ink on the print head 11-3 contacts the top surface of the aluminum-plastic cover for pad printing, a support plate 11-5 is provided below the printing plate 11-4, and a feeding roller 11-6 and a receiving roller 11-8 are provided on both sides of the support plate 11-5, respectively. An adhesive tape 11-7 is provided on the feeding roller 11-6, and the adhesive tape 11-7 is wound up by the receiving roller 11-8 through between the printing plate 11-4 and the support plate 11-5. When the graphic area of ​​the printing plate 11-4 moves to below the oil box, the adhesive tape 11-7 below is exposed, and at this time, the print head 11-3 is moved downward to contact the adhesive surface of the adhesive tape 11-7 to remove the ink remaining on the print head 11-3, so that when the print head 11-3 dips the ink in the graphic area again, the quality of pad printing will not be affected by excessive ink.

[0075] Two guide rollers 11-9 are provided on the support plate 11-5. The two guide rollers 11-9 are respectively located on both sides of the printing plate 11-4. The adhesive tape 11-7 is horizontally passed through the gap between the support plate 11-5 and the printing plate 11-4 through the two guide rollers 11-9.

[0076] A heating and drying device 12 is provided at the heating and drying station 5. The heating and drying device 12 includes a cover body with a certain length. The cover body covers the first conveyor belt device 2. A heating device is provided in the cover body. When the aluminum-plastic cover with ink passes through the heating and drying device 12, it is heated for a period of time, thereby drying the ink to prevent the ink on the top of the aluminum-plastic cover from falling off or deforming in subsequent processes.

[0077] Among them, the first sensor, the second sensor, the third sensor and the fourth sensor are all Hall sensors. When the aluminum-plastic cover passes, the magnetic field changes, so that it can be identified whether an aluminum-plastic cover passes. In order not to affect the detection of the Hall sensor, the first side bar 2-2 and the middle bar are made of non-metallic materials.

[0078] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, there are two first conveyor belt devices 2, and the two first conveyor belt devices 2 are arranged in parallel. A vibration plate loading device 1 is respectively arranged at the head end of each first conveyor belt device 2, and a first limiting device 7, a second limiting device 8 and a heating and drying device 12 are sequentially arranged on each first conveyor belt device 2, and the plasma processing device 6 and the automatic pad printing device 11 are shared by the two first conveyor belt devices 2.

[0079] In the two parallel devices, by adjusting each part of the device, such as replacing the second middle gear bar 2-7 and the positioning finger 9-4, it can adapt to different aluminum-plastic covers, and the printing head 11-3 can be replaced accordingly to print on different products.

[0080] The receiving device 13 is located at the end of the first conveyor belt device 2, and is used to receive the aluminum-plastic covers that have been printed and output the aluminum-plastic covers in a directional manner and one by one in sequence.

[0081] The receiving device 13 includes a receiving bin 13-1 which is tilted. An upper arc guide plate 13-2 is arranged at the upper end of the receiving device 13. The upper arc guide plate 13-2 is located at the end of the first conveyor belt device 2, and the distance between the upper arc guide plate 13-2 and the upper surface of the first conveyor belt device 2 is slightly greater than the height of the aluminum-plastic cover. After the aluminum-plastic cover moves to the end of the first conveyor belt device 2, it enters the receiving bin 13-1 along the arc conveyor belt 2-1 and the upper arc guide plate 13-2, so as to realize the conversion of the aluminum-plastic cover from the horizontal state to the tilted state. The height of the inner cavity of the receiving bin 13-1 is slightly greater than the height of the aluminum-plastic cover, so that the aluminum-plastic cover can just pass through the inner cavity of the receiving bin 13-1, and the aluminum-plastic cover will not flip during the movement, and the top surface will be kept moving upward. The receiving bin 13-1 has a certain width, and the lower end of the receiving bin 13-1 gradually narrows, so that the aluminum-plastic cover can be temporarily piled up in the receiving bin 13-1 and wait for output. A lower arc guide plate 13-3 is provided at the lower end of the receiving bin 13-1, and the inclined aluminum-plastic cover is converted into a horizontal state for output through the lower arc guide plate 13-3. A first air blowing nozzle 13-4 is provided at a position directly opposite to the upper port of the lower arc guide plate 13-3 and at a distance greater than the diameter of the aluminum-plastic cover. The aluminum-plastic cover that reaches the upper port of the lower arc guide plate 13-3 enters the evenly spaced feeding device 14 in front through the lower house-shaped guide plate under the action of its own gravity, the thrust of the aluminum-plastic cover above, and the thrust of the airflow blown out by the first air blowing nozzle 13-4.

[0082] The equally spaced feeding device 14 is located at the output end of the receiving device 13, and is used to output the aluminum-plastic covers output by the receiving device 13 at equal intervals. The equally spaced feeding device 14 includes a horizontal fixed disk 14-1, a horizontal rotating disk 14-2 is arranged above the fixed disk 14-1, the rotating disk 14-2 is driven by a motor to rotate at a constant speed, a rib 14-3 is arranged at the edge of the fixed disk 14-1, and receiving grooves 14-4 are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction on the edge of the rotating disk 14-2, a first notch 14-5 is arranged on one side of the rib 14-3, and the first notch 14-5 is used to connect with the output end of the receiving device 13, and a second notch 14-6 is arranged on the other side of the rib 14-3, and the second notch 14-6 is connected to the head end of the second conveyor belt device 15, and the head end of the second conveyor belt device 15 extends into the second notch 14-6 and is located below the rotating disk 14-2. The aluminum-plastic covers outputted by the receiving device 13 enter the accommodating groove 14-4 of the horizontal rotating disk 14-2 in sequence, and are driven by the rotating disk 14-2 to move from the first notch 14-5 to the second notch 14-6. After reaching the second notch 14-6, the lower end surface of the aluminum-plastic cover enters above the second conveyor belt device 15 and contacts with the upper surface of the second conveyor belt device 15. Driven by the second conveyor belt device 15, the aluminum-plastic cover detaches from the rotating disk 14-2 and moves with the second conveyor belt device 15.

[0083] Since the aluminum-plastic covers are outputted by the rotating disk 14 - 2 at equal intervals, the aluminum-plastic covers are also distributed at equal intervals on the second conveyor belt device 15 , so as to facilitate subsequent image detection and removal of defective products.

[0084] The defect detection device 16 is located on the second conveyor belt device 15, and is used to detect defects in the graphics on the top of the aluminum-plastic cover and remove the aluminum-plastic cover with defects. The defect detection device 16 includes a defect pattern detection device 16-1 and a defect removal device arranged along the second conveyor belt device 15. The defect pattern detection device 16-1 takes pictures of the aluminum-plastic covers passing through in sequence, and uses image recognition technology to identify defects, and the aluminum-plastic covers identified as having defects are removed by the defect removal device. The defect removal device includes an upper baffle 16-2, a second air blowing nozzle 16-3 and a defective product box 16-4. The second air blowing nozzle 16-3 and the defective product box 16-4 are respectively located on both sides of the second conveyor belt device 15, and the upper baffle 16-2 is located above the second conveyor belt. When the aluminum-plastic cover with defects passes below the upper baffle 16-2, the defect pattern detection device 16-1 controls the second air blowing nozzle 16-3 on one side to blow it to the defective product box 16-4 through airflow.

[0085] The invention also discloses an automatic printing method for aluminum-plastic covers, which is implemented based on the automatic printing device for aluminum-plastic covers and comprises the following steps.

[0086] a. Add aluminum-plastic covers to the vibration plate feeding device 1, and output the aluminum-plastic covers in two rows with the top surface facing upward through the vibration plate feeding device 1.

[0087] b. The first conveyor belt device 2 drives two rows of aluminum-plastic covers to move forward and pass through the plasma treatment station 3, the pad printing station 4, and the heating and drying station 5 in sequence.

[0088] c. After the aluminum-plastic cover enters the plasma treatment station 3, the movement of the two rows of multiple aluminum-plastic covers is limited by the first limit device 7, the plasma treatment device 6 is started to perform plasma treatment on the upper surfaces of the two rows of aluminum-plastic covers, and the first limit device 7 releases the aluminum-plastic cover after plasma treatment.

[0089] d. Two rows of aluminum-plastic covers enter the pad printing station 4, and the second limiting device 8 limits the two rows of multiple aluminum-plastic covers in the clamping and fixing device. The positioning fingers 9-4 on both sides approach each other and cooperate with the second middle gear 2-7 to clamp and fix the two rows of aluminum-plastic covers in the positioning groove 9-5.

[0090] e. The printing plate 11-4 of the automatic pad printing device 11 moves toward the oil pan while the mold mounting plate 11-2 drives the printing head 11-3 downward to contact the tape 11-7 on the support plate 11-5, the printing head 11-3 moves upward, the printing plate 11-4 returns, the printing head 11-3 moves downward to contact the graphic area of ​​the printing plate 11-4 to dip in ink, the printing head 11-3 moves to the top of the first conveyor belt device 2, and the printing head 11-3 moves downward to print the ink on the top surface of the aluminum-plastic cover.

[0091] f. The clamping device is opened, and the second limiting device 8 releases the printed aluminum-plastic cover.

[0092] g. The aluminum-plastic cover enters the heating and drying device 12, and the top ink is dried by heating.

[0093] h. The aluminum-plastic cover enters the equally spaced conveying device through the receiving device 13, and is outputted to the second conveyor belt device 15 at equal intervals by the equally spaced conveying device.

[0094] i. The aluminum-plastic covers are passed through the defect detection device 16 at equal intervals, and the aluminum-plastic covers with printing defects are removed.

[0095] Among them, when the aluminum-plastic cover enters the pad printing station 4 from the plasma processing station 3, it passes through the quantity control mechanism 10, and the third sensor 10-3 and the fourth sensor 10-4 detect the number of aluminum-plastic covers passing through. After each predetermined number of aluminum-plastic covers pass through, the fourth vertical telescopic cylinder 10-1 is controlled to drive the fourth lifting frame 10-2 to move down to cut off the two channels of the first conveyor belt device 2 to prevent the aluminum-plastic cover from continuing to enter the printing station.

[0096] In step c, the second lifting frame 7-8 is initially in a descending state, and the second limiting strip 7-9 is located in the second limiting groove 7-10 to block the aluminum-plastic cover moving with the first conveyor belt device 2. The first sensor 7-11 detects the number of aluminum-plastic covers passing through the first limiting groove 7-5. When a predetermined number of aluminum-plastic covers have passed through, the first vertical telescopic cylinder 7-2 is controlled to drive the first lifting frame 7-3 to move downward, so that the first limiting strip 7-4 is lowered into the first limiting groove 7-5 to cut off the passage of the first conveyor belt device 2 and prevent subsequent aluminum-plastic covers from passing through; the aluminum-plastic cover between the first limiting groove 7-5 and the second limiting groove 7-10 is moved downward. Plasma treatment is performed; after the plasma treatment is completed, the second vertical telescopic cylinder is controlled to drive the second lifting frame 7-8 to lift, and the aluminum-plastic cover between the first limit groove 7-5 and the second limit groove 7-10 continues to move with the first conveyor belt device 2, and the second sensor 7-12 detects the number of aluminum-plastic covers passing through. When a predetermined number of aluminum-plastic covers pass through, the second vertical telescopic cylinder drives the second lifting frame 7-8 to descend and re-cut the channel of the first conveyor belt device 2, and at the same time controls the first vertical telescopic cylinder to drive the first lifting frame 7-3 to lift, so that the subsequent aluminum-plastic cover can enter between the first limit groove 7-5 and the second limit groove 7-10.

[0097] The automatic printing device for aluminum-plastic covers of the present invention can realize automatic feeding, surface plasma treatment, pad printing, heating and drying, and defect detection of aluminum-plastic covers, realize the automation of the entire process of aluminum-plastic cover printing, improve the efficiency of aluminum-plastic cover printing, and improve the printing quality. In addition, the printing operation can be performed on two rows of multiple aluminum-plastic covers at the same time, further greatly improving the printing efficiency.
