[0042] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the orientation descriptions, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation.

[0043] In the description of this invention, the use of "first" and "second" is for the purpose of distinguishing technical features only, and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated or the order of the technical features indicated.
[0044] In the description of this invention, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "set up," "install," and "connect" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.
[0045] Reference Figures 1 to 4 This invention discloses a printing and cutting integrated machine, including a base 100, a printing device 200, a cutting table 300, a camera positioning mechanism 400, a cutting mechanism, and multiple sets of paper-pressing pin assemblies 600. The printing device 200 is mounted on the base 100 and is used to print editing identification marks and desired images on the surface of paper and output the paper with the printed identification marks and images. The cutting table 300 is mounted on the base 100 and located in front of the printing device 200. The cutting table 300 is used to absorb the paper output by the printing device 200. When the printing device 200 outputs paper onto the cutting table 300, the cutting table 300 absorbs the paper.
[0046] A camera positioning mechanism 400 is located above the cutting table 300. The camera positioning mechanism 400 is used to locate the position of the identification mark and the image to confirm the cutting path of the desired image. The cutting mechanism includes a drive group 500 and a cutting blade 510 located on the output end of the drive group 500. Multiple sets of paper pressing pin assemblies 600 are all located on the output end of the drive group 500. The multiple sets of paper pressing pin assemblies 600 are arranged around the cutting blade 510. The drive group 500 drives the cutting blade 510 and the multiple sets of paper pressing pin assemblies 600 to move in the front-back, left-right, and up-down directions. The multiple sets of paper pressing pin assemblies 600 are used to press the paper around the cutting blade 510 onto the cutting table 300 and can slide on the paper. The cutting blade 510 is used to cut the surface layer of the paper on the cutting table 300 along the cutting path to obtain the desired image.
[0047] When the paper is adsorbed by the cutting table 300, the paper is in a state of being laid on the cutting table 300, the camera positioning mechanism 400 takes a picture of the paper to locate the positions of the images and the identification marks on the paper, according to the specifications and requirements of the picture, the cutting path of the required picture is confirmed, and then the driving group 500 drives the cutting knife 510 and the plurality of sets of paper pressing pin assemblies 600 to move synchronously, so that the cutting knife 510 moves along the track of the cutting path, and the cutting knife 510 cuts the required picture on the surface of the paper. Since the plurality of sets of paper pressing pin assemblies 600 move synchronously with the cutting knife 510, the plurality of sets of paper pressing pin assemblies 600 press the paper near the cutting knife 510 on the cutting table 300, so as to avoid the deformation and deviation of the paper caused by the force of the cutting knife 510 acting on the paper, so that the paper near the cutting knife 510 can also be stably laid on the cutting table 300, thereby ensuring the quality of the cut picture and the high cutting precision and the smooth cut.
[0048] It can be understood that the printing device 200 can be a common device, and here is not introduced redundantly. The printing device 200 prints images and identification marks on the paper, and then transports the paper to the cutting table 300.
[0049] The upper parts of the left and right sides of the cutting table 300 are respectively provided with a liftable pressing plate 900. When the two pressing plates 900 are lowered, the two pressing plates 900 can press the left and right ends of the paper on the cutting table 300, so as to realize the stable positioning of the paper. When the two pressing plates 900 are raised, the two pressing plates 900 release the left and right ends of the paper, so that the original paper on the cutting table 300 can be removed, and another paper can be moved to the cutting table 300 and positioned opposite to the two pressing plates 900, so that when the two pressing plates 900 are lowered again, the two pressing plates 900 can press the left and right ends of the another paper on the cutting table 300. The setting of the two pressing plates 900 can ensure that the paper can be stably positioned on the cutting table 300.
[0050] Referring to Figure 3 In the embodiment, the left and right ends of the cutting table 300 are respectively provided with a lifting driving mechanism 311, and the output ends of the two lifting driving mechanisms 311 are respectively provided with a pressing plate 900. The two pressing plates 900 are respectively located above the left and right ends of the cutting table 300. The lifting driving mechanism 311 is used to drive the pressing plate 900 to move close to or away from the cutting table 300. When the lifting driving mechanism 311 drives the pressing plate 900 to move towards the cutting table 300, the pressing plate 900 can press the left and right ends of the paper on the cutting table 300. The driving direction of the lifting driving mechanism 311 is perpendicular to the conveying surface of the conveying path 810.
[0051] Referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5In some embodiments, the paper pressing pin assembly 600 comprises a pin column 610, an elastic member 620 and a ball 630. The upper end of the pin column 610 is connected to the output end of the driving assembly 500, such as by a fastener or a threaded structure, so as to detachably connect the pin column 610 to the output end of the driving assembly 500.
[0052] The lower end of the pin column 610 is provided with a receiving hole 611. The elastic member 620 and the ball 630 are arranged in the receiving hole 611. The elastic member 620 drives the ball 630 to move towards the opening of the receiving hole 611, so that part of the ball 630 extends out of the pin column 610. The receiving hole 611 receives the elastic member 620 and the ball 630. The pin column 610 drives the elastic member 620 and the ball 630 to move. The part of the ball 630 extending out of the pin column 610 presses the paper against the cutting table 300.
[0053] The elastic member 620 is elastic and can adjust the height of the part of the ball 630 extending out of the pin column 610, thereby buffering. The ball 630 can rotate on the pin column 610, that is, the ball 630 can roll on the paper, thereby reducing the friction between the ball 630 and the paper.
[0054] Referring to Figure 5 In some embodiments, the paper pressing pin assembly 600 further comprises a limiting sleeve 640. The upper end of the limiting sleeve 640 is connected to the lower end of the pin column 610. The inner wall of the limiting sleeve 640 is provided with an annular flange 641 at the lower end. The elastic member 620 and the ball 630 are sequentially arranged in the receiving hole 611, and then the upper end of the limiting sleeve 640 is connected to the lower end of the pin column 610. The flange 641 extends below the receiving hole 611 and limits the ball 630 in the receiving hole 611. Part of the ball 630 extends out of the pin column 610, so that part of the ball 630 can press the paper against the cutting table 300.
[0055] A gasket is arranged between the elastic member 620 and the ball 630. The gasket can slide in the receiving hole 611 along the depth direction of the receiving hole 611. The friction between the gasket and the ball 630 is small, so as to avoid that the ball 630 is rotated with large resistance due to the direct abutment between the elastic member 620 and the ball 630. The inner diameter of the flange 641 is smaller than the outer diameter of the ball 630. The outer surface of the annular flange 641 is smooth. The flange 641 blocks the ball 630 in the receiving hole 611, and the friction between the flange 641 and the ball 630 is small.
[0056] In some embodiments, the upper end of the limiting sleeve 640 is detachably connected with the lower end of the pin column 610, so as to install, dismount and maintain the ball 630, the elastic member 620 and the gasket. It is conceived that the detachable connection between the limiting sleeve 640 and the pin column 610 can be achieved by fasteners or threaded structure.
[0057] With reference to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 , in some embodiments, the printing and cutting all-in-one machine further comprises a support 800 arranged on the base 100 and in front of the printing device 200, the cutting table 300 is arranged at the rear end of the support 800, the front end of the support 800 is provided with a conveying path 810, the upper surface of the cutting table 300 and the upper surface of the conveying path 810 are in the same plane, the printing device 200 conveys the paper after printing the identification mark and the image to the cutting table 300, the cutting mechanism cuts the required picture on the paper, and then the paper and the picture on the paper are conveyed forward through the conveying path 810.
[0058] In some embodiments, the upper surface of the cutting table 300 and the upper surface of the conveying path 810 are low in front and high in back, that is, the cutting table 300 and the conveying path 810 are both arranged in an inclined manner, the paper is automatically conveyed forward and downward under the action of gravity, and a power mechanism is not required to drive the movement of the paper.
[0059] The driving group 500 comprises an X-axis driving mechanism, a Y-axis driving mechanism and a Z-axis driving mechanism, the driving directions of the X-axis driving mechanism, the Y-axis driving mechanism and the Z-axis driving mechanism are perpendicular to each other, so as to realize the movement of the cutting knife 510 in the front-back, left-right and up-down directions, that is, the movement of the cutting knife 510 in the three-dimensional space, so that the cutting knife 510 can move along a variety of cutting paths and cut the surface layer of the paper on the cutting table 300.
[0060] The X-axis driving mechanism is arranged on the support 800, the driving direction of the X-axis driving mechanism is the left-right direction and parallel to the conveying surface of the conveying path 810, the output end of the X-axis driving mechanism is connected with the Y-axis driving mechanism, the driving direction of the Y-axis driving mechanism is parallel to the conveying surface of the conveying path 810 and perpendicular to the driving direction of the X-axis driving mechanism, the output end of the Y-axis driving mechanism is connected with the Z-axis driving mechanism, the driving direction of the Z-axis driving mechanism is perpendicular to the conveying surface of the conveying path 810, and the driving direction of the Z-axis driving mechanism is perpendicular to the driving directions of the X-axis driving mechanism and the Y-axis driving mechanism, the output end of the Z-axis driving mechanism is connected with the cutting knife 510 and the plurality of sets of paper pressing pin assemblies 600.
[0061] The X-axis driving mechanism, the Y-axis driving mechanism and the Z-axis driving mechanism respectively drive the calibration block 700 and the cutting knife 510 to move along the X-axis, the Y-axis and the Z-axis directions. The driving directions of the Z-axis driving mechanism and the lifting driving mechanism 311 are parallel to each other and are both perpendicular to the cutting table 300. The X-axis driving mechanism, the Y-axis driving mechanism, the Z-axis driving mechanism and the lifting driving mechanism 311 can all be common air cylinders or screw moving pairs or other common driving components.
[0062] With reference to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The printing and cutting all-in-one machine further comprises a calibration block 700 which is detachably connected with the output end of the driving group 500, and the driving group 500 is used to drive the calibration block 700 to move. Initially, the driving group 500 drives the calibration block 700 to abut against the cutting table 300, at this time, the cutting knife 510 and the paper pin assembly 600 do not interfere with the cutting table 300. The calibration block 700 is provided with a right-angle surface 710, the paper is square, and the cutting knife 510 has an origin position. When the cutting knife 510 is at the origin position, the calibration block 700 abuts against the cutting table 300, and the paper is conveyed or placed on the cutting table 300. The right-angle surface 710 is attached to the horizontal edge and the vertical edge of the lower left corner of the paper, and the two pressing plates 900 press the left and right ends of the paper on the cutting table 300. At this time, the position of the paper is the reference position.
[0063] It should be noted that the right-angle surface 710 comprises two planes which are perpendicular to each other and are both perpendicular to the cutting table 300. The two planes are respectively used to block the horizontal edge and the vertical edge of the lower left corner of the paper. In the embodiment, one plane is parallel to the X-axis direction, and the other plane is parallel to the Y-axis direction.
[0064] The working method of the printing and cutting all-in-one machine and the picture making method performed by using the printing and cutting all-in-one machine are as follows:
[0065] The electronic information of the image and the identification mark is obtained by editing the identification mark and the image to be printed, and the electronic information is transmitted to the printing device 200;
[0066] The identification mark coordinate B of the paper when the paper is at the standard position is obtained by using the calibration block 700 and the camera positioning mechanism 400, and the initial cutting path is determined by the flow sheet;
[0067] The cutting knife 510 of the cutting mechanism moves to the origin position, the printing device 200 prints the image and the identification mark on another piece of paper and outputs the another piece of paper to the cutting table 300, and the paper pin assembly 600 blocks the another piece of paper so as to stop the another piece of paper on the cutting table 300;
[0068] The cutting table 300 adsorbs the paper, the pressing plate 900 presses the paper on the cutting table 300, the camera positioning mechanism 400 takes a photo of another paper to obtain the identification mark coordinate b of the another paper, at this time, the difference between the execution cutting path of the cutter 510 and the initial cutting path is equal to the difference between the identification mark coordinate b and the identification mark coordinate B, and the execution cutting path of the cutter 510 is obtained;
[0069] The driving group 500 drives the cutter 510 to move along the execution cutting path, the cutter 510 cuts the surface layer on another paper, and the paper pin assembly 600 around the cutter 510 keeps pressing the paper near the cutter 510 on the cutting table 300;
[0070] The surface layer cut from another paper is removed to obtain the required picture.
[0071] When the cutter 510 cuts the surface layer of the paper, the paper pin assembly 600 around the cutter 510 keeps pressing the paper near the cutter 510 on the cutting table 300, which can avoid the bending deformation and deviation of the paper around the cutter 510 caused by the movement of the cutter 510, avoid the bending cut of the surface layer of the paper, ensure the precision of the cutter 510 cutting the surface layer of the paper, and further improve the quality of the cut picture. The initial cutting path is determined by streaming, and then the identification mark coordinates of the subsequent papers are obtained. The new execution cutting path is calculated by the change value of the identification mark coordinates, and the method is relatively simple.
[0072] More specific steps are as follows: editing the identification mark and the image to be printed to obtain electronic information of the image and the identification mark, and transmitting the electronic information to the printing device 200.
[0073] At the beginning, the calibration block 700 is installed on the output end of the driving group 500, the driving group 500 drives the calibration block 700, the plurality of paper pin assemblies 600 and the cutter 510 to move, the cutter 510 moves to the origin position, at this time, the calibration block 700 abuts against the cutting table 300, the printing device 200 prints the image and the identification mark on a paper and outputs the paper to the cutting table 300, or manually places a paper with the printed image and identification mark on the cutting table 300, the cutting table 300 adsorbs the paper, the paper is laid flat on the cutting table 300, the position of the paper on the cutting table 300 is adjusted so that the horizontal edge and the vertical edge of the lower left corner of the paper are attached to the right angle surface 710, then the two pressing plates 900 are lowered, that is, the pressing plates 900 move towards the cutting table 300 to press the left and right ends of the paper on the cutting table 300, at this time, the paper is in the standard position.
[0074] Then the camera positioning mechanism 400 takes a picture of the paper to obtain the origin coordinate A and the identification mark coordinate B, and the initial cutting path of the cutter 510 is designed or planned according to the required picture shape and the identification mark coordinate B.
[0075] Then the calibration block 700 is removed, and the cutter 510 moves and works along the initial cutting path to verify whether the required picture can be obtained. If the required picture can be obtained, the initial cutting path is recorded. If the required picture cannot be obtained, the above steps are repeated until the required picture can be verified and the initial cutting path is recorded. From the calibration block 700 being installed on the output end of the driving group 500 to the initial cutting path being recorded, the calibration block 700 and the camera positioning mechanism 400 are used to determine the cutting path.
[0076] When the subsequent printing and cutting all-in-one machine repeatedly prints the picture, the driving group 500 drives the plurality of sets of paper pin assembly 600 and the cutter 510 to move, the cutter 510 is reset to the origin corresponding to the origin coordinate A, and the plurality of sets of paper pin assembly 600 is abutted on the cutting table 300. Then the printing device 200 prints the image and the identification mark on another paper and outputs the another paper to the cutting table 300, the paper pin assembly 600 blocks the another paper to make the another paper stop on the cutting table 300, the cutting table 300 adsorbs the another paper, the another paper is laid flat on the cutting table 300, the two pressing plates 900 move towards the cutting table 300 and press the left and right ends of the another paper on the cutting table 300. At this time, the another paper is in a non-standard position. Then the camera positioning mechanism 400 takes a picture of the another paper to obtain the identification mark coordinate b of the another paper. At this time, the identification mark coordinate b and the identification mark coordinate B have a difference, and the execution cutting path of the cutter 510 and the initial cutting path have a difference equal to the difference between the identification mark coordinate b and the identification mark coordinate B. The execution cutting path of the cutter 510 is obtained through the difference between the identification mark coordinate B and the identification mark coordinate b. Then the driving group 500 drives the cutter 510 to work along the execution cutting path to cut the surface layer on the another paper. Finally, the cut surface layer is peeled off from the another paper to obtain the required picture.
