Generally, it is used in the water transfer printing process. The water transfer printing film is placed in water, and an activator is sprayed to separate the graphic layer from the carrier, facilitating the transfer operation. The technical core of the water transfer printing film lies in using water pressure to perform polymer hydrolysis on the transfer paper or plastic film with a color pattern, thereby realizing the transfer of the pattern.

[0028] On the basis of Embodiment 1, a winding device is arranged on the upper end of the winding table 1 on the side of the drying box 2. The winding device includes a first movable seat 5 and a second movable seat 6. Spline seats 7 are rotatably installed on the surfaces of the first movable seat 5 and the second movable seat 6. An adjusting component is arranged between the lower ends of the first movable seat 5 and the second movable seat 6 and the winding table 1. A winding roller is arranged between the two spline seats 7. Spline grooves are formed at both ends of the winding roller. A driving motor 61 is fixedly connected to the outside of the surface of the second movable seat 6 through a bracket. The output end of the driving motor 61 is fixedly connected to a first transmission wheel. The front end of the spline seat 7 extends to the outside of the second movable seat 6 and is fixedly connected to a second transmission wheel. The first transmission wheel and the second transmission wheel are connected by a belt. The two ends of the winding roller are connected to the spline seats 7, which facilitates the driving motor 61 to drive the winding roller to rotate and realize uniform winding.

[0029] In the embodiment of the present invention, the adjusting component includes a displacement groove. A displacement groove is formed on the right side of the upper end surface of the winding table 1. A double-headed lead screw 51 is arranged in the displacement groove. The two ends of the double-headed lead screw 51 are rotatably connected to the two ends of the displacement groove. The front end of the double-headed lead screw 51 extends to the outside of the winding table 1 and is fixedly installed with a turning handle. The threads at both ends of the double-headed lead screw 51 are opposite and have the same pitch. The two ends of the double-headed lead screw 51 are respectively threadedly connected to the first movable seat 5 and the second movable seat 6. Guide rods 52 are fixedly connected to both sides of the double-headed lead screw 51 inside the displacement groove.

[0030] When working, the finished substrate turns after passing through the turning roller 4 and enters the drying box 2, where it is synchronously dried by using a UV light source and a heating and drying method, reducing the drying time and improving the production efficiency. At the same time, the cured substrate enters the detection box 3. When the substrate passes through the tension roller 31 and the limiting roller 32, a triangular path is formed, one side of which is parallel to the detection device. Then, through the movement of the tension roller 31, the substrate maintains good flatness, ensuring the accuracy of the detection result. Finally, the substrate is wound by the winding roller. The two ends of the winding roller are connected to the spline seat 7, which facilitates the driving motor 61 to drive the winding roller to rotate and achieve uniform winding. In addition, by rotating the rotating double-headed screw rod 51, the first movable seat 5 and the second movable seat 6 move, which is convenient for taking out the winding roller for replacement, improving the convenience.

[0031] Through the above steps, the finished substrate is conveyed through the winding table 1 and wound by the winding device. When passing through the drying box 2, it is cured. The cured substrate enters the detection box 3, and the optical detection device performs detection imaging on it, ensuring the product quality and solving the problem that inaccurate detection results are easily caused when the flatness of the carrier is poor.
