[0049] Embodiment 1

[0050] See also Figure 1 The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for controlling a positioning device of a printing device, and the method steps are as follows:

[0051] S1: An inductive sensor is arranged at the zero position of the X motor direction of the printing device; wherein the X motor direction is the inkjet moving direction, and the inductive sensor is used to sense whether the printing carriage is at the zero position.

[0052] refer to Figure 2 An inductive sensor is set at the zero point position of the X motor direction of the printing device, the X motor direction is the inkjet moving direction, and the inkjet moving direction is the beam scanning direction.

[0053] An inductive sensor is arranged at the zero position, and the inductive sensor is used to monitor whether the printing carriage is at the zero position.

[0054] When the printing carriage is moving on the beam for printing, the printing carriage will not be at the zero position. When the printing carriage completes printing of an area, the printing carriage will stop at a position and wait for printing of the next area. The stopped position is the zero position.

[0055] S2: Control the sensing sensor to send a sensing signal to a preset control device of the printing device.

[0056] Specifically, when the inductive sensor detects a change in the state of the printing carriage, the inductive sensor will automatically generate a corresponding inductive signal, and control the inductive sensor to transmit the corresponding inductive signal to a preset control device of the printing setting.

[0057] The transformation is whether the printing carriage is at the zero position.

[0058] S3: Connecting the preset control device and the positioning device, and controlling the preset control device to be turned on or off while controlling the positioning device to be turned on or off according to the sensing signal, wherein the positioning device is arranged in the printing platform for positioning the printing medium.

[0059] Specifically, the preset control device is connected to the positioning device, and the switch state of the positioning device is controlled according to the switch state of the preset control. When the inductive sensor does not detect that the printing carriage is at the zero position, that is, when the printing carriage is moving, a corresponding inductive signal is sent to the preset control device to control the preset control device to be turned off, and then the positioning device is turned off; when the inductive sensor detects that the printing carriage is at the zero position, that is, when the printing carriage stops, a corresponding inductive signal is sent to the preset control device to control the preset control device to be turned on, and then the positioning device is turned on, thereby ensuring that the positioning device will not be accidentally touched, causing the printing carriage to collide with the positioning device.

[0060] This embodiment, through claim 1, sets an inductive sensor at the zero point position in the X-motor direction of the printing device. The inductive sensor senses whether the printing carriage is at the zero point position, controls the inductive sensor to send a sensing signal to a preset control device of the printing device, connects the preset control device with the positioning device, and controls the preset control device to be turned on or off according to the sensing signal while controlling the positioning device to be turned on or off, thereby avoiding damage to the nozzle of the positioning device caused by accidentally touching the positioning device switch during printing.

[0061] In one embodiment, the induction sensor is a photoelectric induction limit or a mechanical induction limit lamp. The photoelectric induction determines whether the printing carriage is at the zero position through information such as light and shadow changes and light; the mechanical induction limit lamp determines whether the printing carriage is at the zero position through current.

[0062] The inductive sensor installed on the device is at the zero position of the device's X motor direction. Before the print carriage starts printing, the inductive sensor starts sensing and detecting the target position through the inductive element or sensor component. When the target position is detected, the inductive sensor determines whether there is a print carriage at the zero position of the device's X motor direction.

[0063] In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the control of the sensing sensor to send a sensing signal to a preset control device in the printing device includes:

[0064] S21: When the induction sensor senses that the printing carriage is located at the zero position, a first signal is sent to the preset control device;

[0065] S22: When the induction sensor senses that the printing carriage is not at the zero position, a second signal is sent to the preset control device.

[0066] Specifically, when the inductive sensor determines that there is a printing carriage at the zero position, the inductive sensor generates a first signal, and controls the inductive sensor to send the first signal to a preset control device of the printing device.

[0067] When the inductive sensor determines that there is no printing carriage at the zero position, the inductive sensor will automatically generate a second signal, and the control inductive sensor will send the second signal to the preset control device of the printing device.

[0068] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the connecting of the preset control device and the positioning device, and controlling the preset control device to be turned on or off and the positioning device to be turned on or off according to the sensing signal, comprises:

[0069] S31: when the sensing signal is the first signal, controlling the preset control device to turn on, and when the preset control device is turned on, the positioning device is turned on;

[0070] S32: When the sensing signal is a second signal, the preset control device is controlled to be turned off. When the preset control device is turned off, the positioning device is turned off.

[0071] Specifically, the preset control device is connected in series with the positioning device, and the preset control device and the positioning device have the same on / off state, that is, when the preset control device is in the on state, the positioning device is also in the on state; when the preset control device is in the off state, the positioning device is also in the off state. The on / off state of the preset control device is controlled to be the same as the on / off state of the positioning device, so that it can be ensured that even if the positioning device switch is accidentally touched during the printing process, the positioning device switch will not be turned on.

[0072] The preset control device receives the sensing signal sent by the sensing sensor, analyzes the sensing signal, and when it is determined that the sensing signal is the first signal, controls the preset control device to turn on. At the same time, the positioning device detects the state of the preset control device. When it is detected that the preset control device is turned on, the positioning device turns on.

[0073] The preset control device receives the sensing signal sent by the sensing sensor, analyzes the sensing signal, and when it determines that the sensing signal is the second signal, controls the preset control device to be closed. At the same time, the positioning device detects the state of the preset control device. When it is detected that the preset control device is closed, the positioning device cannot be turned on.

[0074] During the printing process, if the print carriage leaves the zero position of the X motor direction of the device due to external force or other factors, when the induction sensor detects that the print carriage is not at the zero position, it will immediately send a second signal to the preset control device. After receiving the signal, the preset control device will change from open to closed, and the positioning device will also change from open to closed. When the positioning device changes from open to closed, the positioning device will be retracted in time to ensure that the positioning device will not hit the device and the print nozzle.

[0075] Preferably, the preset control device can be a relay switch, which has higher reliability, longer adaptability, easier maintenance and stronger compatibility.

[0076] Preferably, the positioning device can be a positioning pin, which can accurately control the position of the equipment and maintain the stability of the equipment at the target position. The positioning pin function also helps to improve the safety of the equipment. The positioning pin function can be adjusted and configured as needed to adapt to different location requirements.

[0077] In one embodiment, when the relay switch is turned on, the positioning device is slightly raised and higher than the printing platform; when the relay switch is turned off, the positioning device is slightly lowered and lower than the printing platform.

[0078] Specifically, the positioning pin detects the state of the relay switch and analyzes and processes the relay switch. When the positioning pin detects that the relay switch is turned on, the positioning pin is raised and needs to be higher than the printing platform.

[0079] The positioning pin detects the state of the relay switch and analyzes and processes the relay switch. When the positioning pin detects that the relay switch is closed, the switch of the positioning pin will not be turned on, and the positioning pin will fall down and be lower than the printing platform, ensuring that the positioning pin will not move even if the positioning pin switch is accidentally touched during the printing process.

[0080] In one embodiment, during the printing process, when the positioning device changes from closed to open, the sensing sensor detects that the positioning device changes from closed to open, the sensing sensor will immediately send a second signal, and the controller will control the printing carriage to immediately stop the current printing job, thereby ensuring that the setting and printing nozzle will not hit the positioning device.

[0081] In one embodiment, when the printing carriage is controlled to stop the current printing job, the printing carriage is controlled to stop at the current printing position. At this time, the sensing signal is obtained to see whether it is the second signal. If not, it means that an error occurs in the sensing sensor, causing the positioning device to be turned on. The printing device is controlled to issue an error alarm to prompt the user that an error occurs in the sensing sensor. If yes, it means that the sensing sensor has not made a misjudgment. Then, it is determined whether the preset control device is turned off. If not, it means that an error occurs in the preset control device. The printing device is controlled to issue an error alarm to prompt the user that an error occurs in the preset control device. If the preset control device is turned off, but the positioning device is not turned off, it means that an error occurs in the positioning device. The printing device is controlled to issue an error alarm to prompt the user that an error occurs in the positioning device.

[0082] In summary, the control method of the positioning device of the printing device according to the embodiment of the present invention sets an inductive sensor at the zero position of the X-motor direction of the printing device, the inductive sensor senses whether the printing carriage is at the zero position, controls the inductive sensor to send a sensing signal to the preset control device of the printing device, connects the control device and the positioning device in series to achieve a linkage control effect, and controls the preset control device to be turned on or off while controlling the positioning device to be turned on or off according to the sensing signal; when the printing carriage is at the zero position of the X-motor direction of the device, the preset control device and the positioning device are controlled to be turned on; when the printing carriage is not at the zero position of the X-motor direction of the device, the preset control device and the positioning device are controlled to be turned off; thereby ensuring that the positioning device will not be turned on due to false triggering during the printing operation of the printing carriage, thereby ensuring the safety of the nozzle during the printing process.
