Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of code printing machine, and particularly relates to a hidden code printing position adjusting mechanism and an adjusting method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the increasing demand for anti-counterfeiting, hidden UV code printing machines are growing rapidly in the high-end market, especially in the pharmaceutical and food industries. Technology is developing towards intelligence and high precision, and combining with AI and big data to improve traceability. Hidden UV code printing machines use UV curing ink technology to spray hidden ink onto the product surface through a piezoelectric nozzle, forming invisible marks. These marks are invisible under ordinary light and need to be visible under ultraviolet light. The ink usually contains fluorescent substances that emit light when excited by UV light, achieving anti-counterfeiting and information encryption. Generally, industrial-grade piezoelectric nozzles are used, supporting high-speed printing, high resolution, suitable for small characters and complex patterns; mainly applied to high-end packaging, supply chain management and other fields.

[0003] However, there are some problems in the actual application of UV code printing machines, as follows: 1. Generally, the production line only supports the UV code printing machine by a simple support, which makes it impossible to print on the material if the relative position of the material and the UV code printing machine is not accurate during the transmission process, or the printing is incomplete, causing product defects; 2. During use, the nozzle is often blocked by large UV ink pigment particles, environmental dust accumulation or improper cleaning, which not only affects production efficiency, but also is very troublesome. At the same time, dust on the lens and the surface of the material can also affect the printing clarity and wear resistance. If the printing quality is not good enough, it may be damaged due to friction during transportation, affecting product traceability; 3. The UV code printing machine also has poor environmental suitability. Its suitable working temperature is 15-30℃, and working in an environment with too high or too low temperature can easily cause the viscosity of the ink to decrease, resulting in printing with rough edges. However, many factories cannot meet the above temperature requirements, which leads to poor printing quality. SUMMARY

[0023] Among them, a servo motor 13 is fixedly installed at one end of the support base 1 close to the movable support plate 2, and the power output end of the servo motor 13 is connected to the support shaft of the movable support plate 2 through a coupling. The servo motor 13 can drive the movable support plate 2 to rotate circumferentially, thereby changing the circumferential angle of printing to meet the printing requirements.

By fixing a lifting support 12 that is slidably connected to the hand-cranked lifting rod 7 on the side of the support base 1 away from the movable support plate 2, and fixing the lifting support 12 to the slide in the hand-cranked lifting rod 7, the support base 1 can be driven to rise and fall by rotating the rocker to change the placement height of the nozzle 4, thereby adapting to different production lines and greatly adjusting the equipment height according to different printing requirements. Thereafter, the first linear motor 21, the second linear motor 22 and the slide cylinder 23 are used for precise adjustment to ensure the integrity of the printing.

[0025] It should be noted that the industrial camera 3 needs to cooperate with the control system to work together, after the material enters the monitoring interval, the photoelectric sensor triggers the shooting, and the 2D / 3D mode selection is carried out, the plane material extracts the contour feature and monocular positioning, the three-dimensional material needs to scan the structure light and match the point cloud, and then the position coordinates are generated, the control system sends control signals to control the servo motor 13, the first linear motor 21, the second linear motor 22 and the sliding table cylinder 23 according to the position coordinates, and adjusts the position and angle of the spray head 4.

[0026] Referring to the drawings Figure 4 In order to improve the monitoring range and accuracy, the supporting base 1 is provided with a mounting groove 11 on the side close to the movable supporting plate 2, and a rudder 14 for adjusting the monitoring angle of the industrial camera 3 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the mounting groove 11, and the industrial camera 3 is fixedly installed on the power output end of the rudder 14 through a U-shaped support, and the monitoring angle of the industrial camera 3 can be adjusted through the rudder 14, so as to adjust the monitoring range according to different production needs.

[0027] Referring to the drawings Figures 1-3 In order to clean the surface of the material, the movable supporting plate 2 is provided with a cleaning assembly 5 on the side facing the feeding side, which includes a gas jet pump 51 fixedly installed on the side of the movable supporting plate 2, a gas guide pipe 52 connected with the air outlet port of the gas jet pump 51, and a gas nozzle 53 installed on the horizontal section of the gas guide pipe 52, and the gas guide pipe 52 is fixedly installed on the side of the movable supporting plate 2 through the installation plate 54 to ensure its stability, and the gas nozzle 53 is vertically directed to the surface of the conveying belt, so that the gas flow can be blown vertically to the surface of the material to clean the dust and other impurities on the surface to avoid affecting the spray printing and improve the quality of the spray printing.

[0028] Referring to the drawings Figures 4-9 The outer side of the spray head 4 is surrounded by an outer protective shell 41 for adjusting the ambient temperature thereof, and the inner wall of the outer protective shell 41 is integrally formed with a wave-shaped protrusion 411, and a guide groove 412 for airflow passing to cool down is formed between the wave-shaped protrusions 411, a guide plate 415 is integrally formed at the bottom of the guide groove 412, and the top surface of the guide plate 415 is an uphill surface. After the airflow passes through the guide groove 412, it will be sprayed to the mirror surface of the spray head 4 under the guidance of the guide plate 415, so as to clean the impurities and dust on the surface, make the spray printing more clear, and avoid the influence of dust and other impurities.

[0029] Further, the outer protective shell 41 is fixedly installed with a flow guide cover 43 at the top end, and the flow guide cover 43 is integrally formed with a flow guide column 431 embedded in each flow guide groove 412. Meanwhile, the air duct 52 is connected with a universal hose 55 at the bottom end for air supply. By connecting the other end of the universal hose 55 with the flow guide cover 43, air supply can be realized through the flow guide cover 43 and the flow guide column 431 to the flow guide groove 412, so that the mirror surface of the nozzle 4 can be cleaned at the same time of cleaning the surface of the material, ensuring the synchronization of cleaning, and greatly reducing the influence of dust and other impurities on the printing.

[0030] Secondly, the airflow passing through the flow guide groove 412 can quickly take away the heat energy on the surface of the nozzle 4, improve the heat dissipation efficiency, and ensure sufficient heat dissipation of the nozzle 4 in a high-temperature working environment, so that the nozzle 4 can work at an appropriate temperature for printing, reducing the occurrence of printing defects.

[0031] Referring to the accompanying drawings Figures 6-7 In order to ensure the stable work of the nozzle 4 in a low-temperature environment, the outer protective shell 41 is fixedly installed with an electrode cover 42 at the top end, and the outer protective shell 41 is provided with an inner sealing cavity 413.

By integrally forming a rotating support 66 at one end of the cleaning disc 61 and directly connecting the rotating support 66 with the power output end of the direct drive motor 62, the cleaning disc 61 can be adjusted by the direct drive motor 62, so that the cleaning disc 61 can be hidden when not in use, and at the same time, the position relationship between the cleaning disc 61 and the spray head 4 can be adjusted in cooperation with the servo motor 13, the first linear motor 21, the second linear motor 22 and the sliding table cylinder 23, so as to achieve the purpose of cleaning. A liquid storage cavity 63 is formed in the cleaning disc 61, and a special cleaning liquid is stored in the cavity. A brush plate 64 is slidably installed on the top surface of the end away from the rotating support 66, and a plurality of liquid outlet holes are uniformly formed on the surface of the brush plate 64 to allow the cleaning liquid to pass through. A limiting spring 67 for limiting the position of the brush plate 64 is fixedly installed between the bottom surface of the brush plate 64 and the inner wall of the cleaning disc 61, and a cotton brush 65 is detachably connected to the top surface of the brush plate 64.

Then, the spray head 4 is driven downward by the first linear motor 21 to abut against the cotton brush 65, so as to push the brush plate 64 downward and press the limiting spring 67, so that the cleaning liquid penetrates the brush plate 64 to soak the cotton brush 65. Then, the spray head 4 and the cotton brush 65 are relatively moved in the same plane by cooperation of the second linear motor 22, the sliding table cylinder 23 and the direct drive motor 62, so as to clean the mirror surface of the spray head 4 by the cotton brush 65. Then, the spray head 4 is reset, and the brush plate 64 and the cotton brush 65 are reset under the action of the rebounding force of the limiting spring 67. The cleaning disc 61 is reset by the direct drive motor 62, and the cleaning operation is completed.

The top surface of the cleaning disc 61 is provided with a liquid adding hole, so that the cleaning liquid can be added after being used up, and the liquid adding hole is sealed by a sealing plug 68 when not in use.

[0038] Of course, in other embodiments, the cleaning assembly 6 can not be provided, and the selection can be made according to the actual production needs. If necessary, the manual disassembly and cleaning mode is more accurate and the cleaning is more thorough.
