Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an inkjet printing positioning device and a printing device, belonging to the technical field of printing devices. Background Art

[0002] At present, with the continuous growth of people's personalized needs for home decoration, the market prospect of tile inkjet printers is broad. Such printers can achieve high-resolution and high-precision tile pattern printing, bringing new development opportunities to the tile industry. With the continuous development of technology, the market demand for tile inkjet printers will continue to grow, with huge market potential.

[0003] After retrieval, it is found that the Chinese patent with the publication number CN211684167U discloses an inkjet printer for self-feeding ceramic production. In this patent, the inkjet printer body is installed on the mounting frame, and ceramic materials are conveyed by a belt conveyor. The transfer mechanism is responsible for transferring the ceramic materials from the belt conveyor to the inkjet printer body. When the ceramic materials reach the inkjet printer body, the motor drives the toothless gear to rotate, and then drives the rotating shaft and the transmission gear to rotate. The transmission gear meshes with the toothless gear, causing the carrier plate to rotate with the rotating shaft. When the carrier plate rotates to a specific position, the lifting cylinder drives the mounting plate to descend, so that the electric mechanical claw grabs the ceramic materials. Subsequently, the lifting cylinder drives the mounting plate to rise, transporting the ceramic materials to the inkjet printer body for printing. After printing is completed, the mounting plate descends again, and the electric mechanical claw releases the ceramic materials, and the materials are conveyed to the next process through the belt conveyor. However, when the ceramic materials are transferred from the belt conveyor to the inkjet printer, no positioning adjustment is performed, which may result in poor printing effects and the produced ceramic materials cannot be assembled into a complete pattern.

The driving member 21 is adapted to drive the driving rod 22 to drive the push rod 23;

[0029] The pushing device is adapted to push the medium to the positioning device during the transmission process, and the positioning component is adapted to calibrate and position the medium;

[0030] The printer 3, the printer 3 is installed above the transmission device 1, and the printer 3 is adapted to print on the medium entering the printer 3.

[0031] In this embodiment, the medium is a ceramic tile. Of course, it can also be other media, and the printer is an inkjet printer.

[0032] Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, the positioning device includes a fixed base 24. The fixed base 24 is installed on the other side of the transmission device 1, and a limiting plate 241 is provided on the side of the fixed base 24 away from the transmission device 1.

[0037] Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, the positioning device further includes a locking device, and the locking device is rotatably mounted on the positioning rod 242. The locking device includes a transverse locking member and a longitudinal locking member;

[0038] The transverse locking member includes a transverse screw 243. The transverse screw is adapted to fix the positioning rod 242 at a predetermined position. The transverse screw 243 is adapted to abut against the limiting plate 241 when locked in place to prevent it from shifting during use;

[0039] The longitudinal locking member includes a longitudinal screw 244 and a longitudinal locking nut. The longitudinal screw 244 is adapted to adjust the height of the positioning rod 242 so that it can adapt to objects of different heights.

When the medium enters the printer 3, the printer 3 prints on the medium. A photoelectric sensor 11 is provided on the transmission device 1 to start the transmission device 1 and the printer 3 when detecting the passing of the medium. When the photoelectric sensor 11 detects the passing of the medium, it will cause the transmission device 1 and the printer 3 to start working.

The longitudinal locking member is used to adjust the height of the positioning rod 242, while the transverse locking member is used to fix the positioning rod at a predetermined position to prevent it from shifting during use.
