Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of printing platform technology, specifically to a printing platform height adjustment mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] The core of color printing is to convert the RGB / CMYK color data in a digital image into visible color blocks on a real medium through physical, chemical, or optical processes. In the color printing technology system, the printing platform is the decisive factor in determining the baseline quality, the upper limit efficiency, and the cost ceiling. The printing platform is the core hardware system that carries the media, transmits power, and controls precision; its performance directly affects the final quality, efficiency, and cost of color printing. If color printing is likened to "cooking," the platform is the combination of "stove + pot + knives"—a defect in any link will lead to a failed "dish" (output effect).
[0003] Chinese patent document CN219256811U discloses a printing platform height adjustment structure, including a support base, a height adjustment base, a height adjustment component, a fixed base, a rotating shaft, and a fixing element. When the wheel plate of the second height adjustment element is rotated, the first inclined surface of the first height adjustment element moves upward along the second inclined surface of the second height adjustment element, and pushes the first height adjustment element upward, thereby causing the support base to move upward, thereby adjusting the height of the support base to achieve the required height of the printing platform.
[0004] In practical use, the aforementioned patent adjusts the height of the printing platform by rotating a wheel plate, causing the first inclined surface of the first height adjusting element to move upward along the second inclined surface of the second height adjusting element, thereby pushing the first height adjusting element upward.

[0018] 2. By starting the first motor, the output of the first motor drives the second gear to rotate. Since the second gear meshes with the third gear, the third gear also rotates. The rotation of the third gear drives the connecting posts to rotate. Because each of the four connecting posts is equipped with a first sprocket and fitted with a first chain, the four connecting posts can rotate synchronously. The rotation of the connecting posts drives the threaded posts to rotate. Since the threaded posts are threadedly connected to the threaded sleeves, the rotation of the threaded posts drives the threaded sleeves to move up and down. The top of the threaded sleeves is connected to the bottom of the printing platform, so the up and down movement of the threaded sleeves drives the up and down movement of the printing platform, achieving height adjustment.

Detailed Implementation
[0030] To further understand the features, technical means, and specific objectives and functions achieved by the present invention, the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0031] See Figures 1 to 10As shown, the present invention provides a printing platform height adjustment mechanism, including a frame 1, a gantry 2 at the top of the frame 1, vertical adjustment components for adjusting the height of the gantry 2 on both sides of the frame 1, a drive block 3 movably disposed on the inner side of the gantry 2, a horizontal drive component for driving the drive block 3 to move laterally on the gantry 2, a print head 4 disposed on one side of the drive block 3, a movable plate 5 movably disposed at the top of the frame 1, a threaded drive component for driving the movable plate 5 to move on the frame 1, a printing platform 6 disposed on the movable plate 5, a height adjustment component 7 for adjusting the height of the printing platform 6 disposed between the movable plate 5 and the printing platform 6, horizontal plates 8 on both sides of the movable plate 5, and a horizontal calibration component 9 for calibrating the printing platform 6 at the top of the horizontal plates 8.
[0032] Based on printing requirements, the vertical adjustment component is activated to adjust the height of the gantry 2, ensuring a suitable initial distance between the print head 4 and the printing platform 6. Subsequently, the moving plate 5 is moved at the top of the frame 1 via a threaded drive component, moving the printing platform 6 to the printing start position. When the height of the printing platform 6 needs adjustment, the height adjustment component 7 is activated to adjust the height of the printing platform 6, ensuring the distance between the print head 4 and the printing platform 6 meets printing requirements.
[0033] After the height of the printing platform 6 is adjusted, a laser level is used to perform a preliminary calibration of the printing platform 6. If the detection finds that the printing platform 6 is not level, the level calibration component 9 is activated to perform a comprehensive level detection and calibration of the printing platform 6, ensuring that the printing platform 6 is level, thereby avoiding problems such as interlayer misalignment or uneven surface during the printing process.
[0034] See Figures 4 to 5 As shown, the horizontal calibration component 9 includes a rectangular column 91, a sliding plate 93, and a column 94. The rectangular column 91 is located on the top of the horizontal plate 8. There are four rectangular columns 91, which are located at the four corners of the printing platform 6. The printing platform 6 is provided with a through-hole for the rectangular column 91 to move. A top plate 92 is provided on the top of the rectangular column 91. The sliding plate 93 is slidably disposed on the rectangular column 91. A vertical drive component for driving the sliding plate 93 to move is provided on the top plate 92. The column 94 is located at the bottom of the sliding plate 93, and one end of the column 94 is connected to the top of the printing platform 6.
[0035] After the height of the printing platform 6 is adjusted, the horizontal status of the printing platform 6 is detected using an external level detection device, a laser level. If a horizontal deviation is detected, the vertical drive component is activated based on the direction and magnitude of the deviation. This component drives the sliding plate 93 to move vertically on the rectangular column 91. The movement of the sliding plate 93 is converted into a fine-tuning force on the printing platform 6 via the column 94. When the sliding plate 93 moves to the appropriate position, the fine-tuning force applied by the column 94 to the printing platform 6 ensures that the printing platform 6 is horizontal. The calibration component 9 is iteratively adjusted based on the feedback data from the laser level until the printing platform 6 is horizontal, thereby avoiding problems such as interlayer misalignment or surface unevenness during printing.
[0036] See Figures 4 to 5 As shown, the vertical drive component includes a first rack 95, a connecting frame 96, and a rotating rod 97; the first rack 95 is disposed on the top of the sliding plate 93; the connecting frame 96 is disposed on the top of the top plate 92; the rotating rod 97 is disposed on the inner side of the connecting frame 96, and a first gear 98 is disposed on the rotating rod 97. One end of the rotating rod 97 extends outward through one side of the connecting frame 96, and a turntable 99 is disposed at the extended end of the rotating rod 97. The first gear 98 meshes with the first rack 95.
[0037] By rotating the turntable 99, the rotating rod 97 is driven to rotate. The rotational motion of the rotating rod 97 is converted into the linear motion of the first rack 95 through the meshing relationship between the first gear 98 and the first rack 95. The linear motion of the first rack 95 is directly transmitted to the sliding plate 93. Since the sliding plate 93 is slidably mounted on the rectangular column 91, it will move vertically along the rectangular column 91. By continuously rotating the turntable 99, the user can precisely control the vertical position of the sliding plate 93 on the rectangular column 91, thereby achieving indirect fine-tuning of the printing platform 6 through the column 94, ultimately achieving the purpose of horizontal calibration.
[0038] See Figure 5 As shown, a guide post 910 is provided on one side of the rectangular post 91 at the top of the horizontal plate 8, and one end of the sliding plate 93 is slidably disposed on the guide post 910.
[0039] When the sliding plate 93 moves along the rectangular column 91, the sliding plate 93 will slide along the guide column 910 during movement due to the setting of the guide column 910, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the sliding plate 93.
[0040] See Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the height adjustment assembly 7 includes an adjustment box 71, a connecting column 76, a first motor 79, and a third gear 711. The adjustment box 71 is mounted on the movable plate 5. A first partition 72 is provided inside the adjustment box 71, and a second partition 73 is provided at the bottom of the first partition 72. The first partition 72 and the second partition 73 divide the adjustment box 71 into a first cavity, a second cavity, and a third cavity from top to bottom. A threaded column 74 is provided at the top of the first partition 72 in the first cavity. A threaded sleeve 75 is threadedly connected to the threaded column 74. The top of the threaded sleeve 75 is connected to the printing platform 6. The bottom is connected; four connecting posts 76 are provided and are located in the second cavity. One end of the connecting post 76 is connected to the bottom of the threaded post 74. The four sets of connecting posts 76 are provided with first sprockets 77, and the four sets of first sprockets 77 are fitted with first chains 78; one end of the connecting post 76 extends through the second partition 73 into the third cavity, and the third gear 711 is provided at the extended end of the connecting post 76; the first motor 79 is located in the second cavity, and the output end of the first motor 79 extends through the second partition 73 into the third cavity and is provided with a second gear 710. The second gear 710 meshes with the third gear 711.
[0041] When the height of the printing platform 6 needs to be adjusted, the first motor 79 is activated, and its output drives the second gear 710 to rotate. Since the second gear 710 meshes with the third gear 711, the third gear 711 also rotates. The rotation of the third gear 711 drives the connecting posts 76 to rotate. Because each of the four connecting posts 76 is equipped with a first sprocket 77 and fitted with a first chain 78, the four connecting posts 76 can rotate synchronously. The rotation of the connecting posts 76 drives the threaded post 74 to rotate. Since the threaded post 74 is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve 75, the rotation of the threaded post 74 drives the threaded sleeve 75 to move up and down. The top of the threaded sleeve 75 is connected to the bottom of the printing platform 6, so the up and down movement of the threaded sleeve 75 drives the printing platform 6 to move up and down, thus achieving height adjustment.
[0042] See Figure 4 As shown, the threaded drive component includes a mounting frame 51, a second threaded rod 52, and a third motor 55. The mounting frame 51 is mounted on the frame 1, and the second threaded rod 52 is disposed inside the mounting frame 51. A moving block 53 is threadedly connected to the second threaded rod 52, and the top of the moving block 53 is connected to the bottom of the moving plate 5. One end of the second threaded rod 52 extends outward through one side of the mounting frame 51, and a second sprocket 54 is disposed at the extended end of the second threaded rod 52. The third motor 55 is mounted on the mounting frame 51, and a third sprocket 56 is disposed at the output end of the third motor 55. A second chain 57 is sleeved on the second sprocket 54 and the third sprocket 56.
[0043] By activating the third motor 55, the third sprocket 56 is rotated. The rotation of the third sprocket 56 is transmitted to the second sprocket 54 via the second chain 57, which in turn drives the second threaded rod 52 to rotate. The rotation of the second threaded rod 52 drives the moving block 53 to move. The movement of the moving block 53 directly drives the movement of the moving plate 5, thereby achieving precise position adjustment of the moving plate 5 on the frame 1.
[0044] See Figure 4 As shown, slide rails are provided on both sides of the second threaded rod 52 on the frame 1, and the bottom of the moving plate 5 is slidably mounted on the slide rails.
[0045] When the movement of the moving block 53 causes the moving plate 5 to move, the moving plate 5 will move along the slide rail, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the moving plate 5.
[0046] See Figures 8 to 10 As shown, the vertical adjustment component includes a fourth motor 21, a crossbar 23, a side plate 25, an adjustment plate 27, and a fourth gear 26. The fourth motor 21 is mounted on the frame 1, and a first bevel gear 22 is mounted on the output end of the fourth motor 21. The crossbar 23 is horizontally mounted inside the frame 1, and a second bevel gear 24 is mounted on the crossbar 23, which meshes with the first bevel gear 22. The side plate 25 is mounted on both sides of the frame 1. The adjustment plate 27 is slidably mounted on the side plate 25, and the top of the adjustment plate 27 is connected to the gantry 2. Both ends of the crossbar 23 extend outward through one side of the adjustment plate 27, and the fourth gear 26 is mounted on the extended end of the crossbar 23. A second rack 28 is mounted on one side of the adjustment plate 27 located on the frame 1, and the second rack 28 meshes with the fourth gear 26.
[0047] By activating the fourth motor 21, the output of the fourth motor 21 drives the first bevel gear 22 to rotate. The rotation of the first bevel gear 22 is transmitted to the second bevel gear 24 through meshing, which in turn drives the crossbar 23 to rotate. The rotation of the crossbar 23 drives the fourth gear 26, which is located at both ends of the crossbar 23, to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the fourth gear 26 is transmitted to the second rack 28 through meshing. Since the second rack 28 is fixed on the adjusting plate 27, the linear movement of the second rack 28 will cause the adjusting plate 27 to slide on the side plate 25, thereby adjusting the height of the gantry 2 and ensuring that the initial distance between the print head 4 and the printing platform 6 is appropriate.
[0048] See Figure 3 and Figure 10As shown, the transverse drive component includes a first threaded rod 31 and a second motor 32; the first threaded rod 31 is disposed inside the gantry frame 2; the second motor 32 is disposed on one side of the gantry frame 2, the output end of the second motor 32 is connected to one end of the first threaded rod 31, the drive block 3 is threaded onto the first threaded rod 31, a slide rod 33 is disposed inside the gantry frame 2 at the bottom of the first threaded rod 31, and the drive block 3 has a through hole for the slide rod 33 to move.
[0049] The second motor 32 is activated. The second motor 32 drives the first threaded rod 31 to rotate. The rotation of the first threaded rod 31 causes the drive block 3 to move linearly along the axis of the first threaded rod 31. During the linear movement of the drive block 3, the slide rod 33 passes through the through hole on the drive block 3, providing stable guidance and support for the drive block 3. The position of the print head 4 is adjusted by the movement of the drive block 3.
[0050] See Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a placement plate 10 is provided on the side of the adjustment plate 27 away from the frame 1.
[0051] The placement plate 10 on one side of the adjustment plate 27 facilitates the placement or support of other components by staff.
[0052] According to printing requirements, the vertical adjustment component is activated to adjust the height of the gantry 2, ensuring a suitable initial distance between the print head 4 and the printing platform 6. Subsequently, the moving plate 5 is moved on top of the frame 1 via the threaded drive component, moving the printing platform 6 to the printing start position. When the height of the printing platform 6 needs adjustment, the first motor 79 is activated, and its output drives the second gear 710 to rotate. Since the second gear 710 meshes with the third gear 711, the third gear 711 also rotates. The rotation of the third gear 711 drives the connecting posts 76 to rotate. Because each of the four connecting posts 76 is equipped with a first sprocket 77 and fitted with a first chain 78, the four connecting posts 76 can rotate synchronously. The rotation of the connecting posts 76 drives the threaded post 74 to rotate. Since the threaded post 74 is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve 75, the rotation of the threaded post 74 drives the threaded sleeve 75 to move up and down. The top of the threaded sleeve 75 is connected to the bottom of the printing platform 6. Therefore, the up-and-down movement of the threaded sleeve 75 will drive the printing platform 6 to move up and down, achieving height adjustment and ensuring that the distance between the print head 4 and the printing platform 6 meets the printing requirements. After the height of the printing platform 6 is adjusted, the horizontal state of the printing platform 6 is detected using an external level detection device, a laser level. If the detection finds that the printing platform 6 has a horizontal deviation, the rotation of the turntable 99 is used to rotate the rotating rod 97 according to the direction and magnitude of the horizontal deviation. The rotational motion of the rotating rod 97 is converted into the linear motion of the first rack 95 through the meshing relationship between the first gear 98 and the first rack 95. The linear motion of the first rack 95 is directly transmitted to the sliding plate 93. Since the sliding plate 93 is slidably set on the rectangular column 91, the sliding plate 93 will move vertically along the rectangular column 91. The movement of the sliding plate 93 is converted into a fine-tuning force on the printing platform 6 through the column 94. When the sliding plate 93 moves to the appropriate position, the fine-tuning force applied by the column 94 to the printing platform 6 makes the printing platform 6 reach a horizontal state. The calibration component 9 is iteratively adjusted based on the feedback data from the laser level until the printing platform 6 is in a horizontal state, thereby avoiding problems such as interlayer misalignment or uneven surface during the printing process.

It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be determined by the appended claims.
