Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of ink testing technology, specifically to an intelligent viscosity testing device and method based on ink production. Background Technology

[0002] In the ink production process, viscosity is a core parameter affecting printing quality, production efficiency, and cost control. Intelligent viscosity testing equipment, through automated, high-precision measurement and real-time control, has become a key tool for improving production standardization and reducing reliance on manual labor.

[0003] The reference patent title is: An Ink Viscosity Testing Device (Patent Publication No.: CN222599452U, Patent Publication Date: 2025-03-11). During operation, the ink viscosity testing device contains a large amount of ink to be tested in a test box and an ink tank. A drive cylinder drives a drive piston through a drive shaft to insert into the test box, injecting a portion of the ink to be tested from the test box into the ink tank through an output port, an output pipe, and an injection port. Simultaneously, a portion of the ink to be tested from the ink tank flows back into the test box through an outlet, a return pipe, and a return port. The detection end of a magnetic switch is used to detect the frequency of the reciprocating motion of the drive shaft on the drive cylinder. The control mechanism calculates the obtained frequency of the reciprocating motion of the drive shaft or compares it with information in a database to obtain the corresponding ink viscosity value, which is then displayed on a monitor.

[0004] Based on the description in the aforementioned reference documents, existing viscosity testing equipment for ink production still has the following problems: air bubbles are easily generated during the vertical entry of the rotor into the container containing ink. These air bubbles, when attached to the rotor, interfere with the accurate measurement of rotational resistance, leading to deviations in the viscosity test results. Furthermore, if the center of the container containing ink is not aligned with the center of the rotor during the test, the rotor may make additional contact or interference with the inner wall or bottom of the container during rotation, making the test results unable to accurately reflect the actual viscosity of the ink. Therefore, this invention provides an intelligent viscosity testing device and method based on ink production. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an intelligent viscosity testing device and method based on ink production. It solves the problems of existing ink production viscosity testing equipment where air bubbles easily form during the vertical insertion of the rotor into the ink-filled container. These air bubbles adhere to the rotor, interfering with the accurate measurement of rotational resistance and leading to deviations in viscosity test results. Furthermore, if the center of the ink-filled container is not aligned with the rotor's center, the rotor may make additional contact or interference with the container's inner wall or bottom during rotation, causing the test results to fail to accurately reflect the actual viscosity of the ink.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an intelligent viscosity testing device based on ink production, comprising a base, a support shaft, and a main unit constituting a rotational viscometer. A lifting assembly is used between the support shaft and the main unit to allow the main unit to be positioned on the support shaft for lifting operations. A tilt adjustment mechanism is provided on the base to move a container filled with ink and immerse the testing area below the main unit into the ink container. The tilt adjustment mechanism includes: The bottom support plate is fixed to the base. The upper support plate moves through the reset part inside the bottom support plate and at the same time realizes the rotation control of the tilting plate to be placed horizontally. The tilting plate and the upper support plate are initially tilted relative to each other, and the clamping part provided on the top of the tilting plate is used to clamp the container containing ink. The reset unit includes a rotating shaft mounted on the inclined plate. The two ends of the rotating shaft rotate with the protrusions on the top of the upper support plate. The interior of the upper support plate is connected to a movable plate through an elastic element. The two ends of the movable plate are fixedly mounted with horizontally placed limiting racks through connecting brackets. The two ends of the rotating shaft mesh with the limiting racks through meshing elements. When the limiting racks move to contact the inner wall of the bottom support plate, they move on their own to achieve the rotation of the meshing elements and thus reset the inclined plate to a horizontal position. The bottom support plate is equipped with a pushing unit to enable the upper support plate to move horizontally, and during the movement, it also assists in moving the upper support plate upward for adjustment.

[0007] Preferably, the clamping part includes: The clamping rings are provided in a symmetrical pair, and the container containing ink is clamped by the clamping rings. A drive motor is installed on the front side of the inclined plate, and one end of the drive motor output shaft is equipped with a positive and negative threaded rod through a coupling. The opposite threads of the positive and negative threaded rods are respectively threaded with sliding sleeves. A sliding groove is opened on the surface of the inclined plate to accommodate the sliding of the sliding sleeves. The sliding sleeves do not rotate in the sliding grooves. Therefore, when the positive and negative threaded rods rotate, they drive the two sliding sleeves to move relative to each other or in opposite directions. The top of the sliding sleeves extends to the top of the inclined plate and is fixed to the bottom side of the clamping ring.

[0008] Preferably, the elastic element includes: The movable groove is located on the side of the upper support plate, and the movable plate moves horizontally inside the movable groove; The abutment spring is located on the opposite side of the moving groove and the moving plate, and both ends of the abutment spring are fixed to the opposite side of the moving groove and the moving plate. When the abutment spring is not affected by other external forces, its restoring elasticity enables the moving plate to move towards the side closer to the rotating shaft.

[0009] Preferably, the engaging element includes: The main gear is fixedly mounted on the surface of the rotating shaft and rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft. The main gear passes through and extends into the interior of the upper support plate. A support plate is installed at the bottom of the upper support plate and located directly below the rotating shaft. A secondary gear is rotatably connected to the support plate via the rotating shaft. The secondary gear passes through and extends into the interior of the upper support plate and meshes with the surface of the main gear. Furthermore, the limiting rack and the auxiliary gear are in surface meshing contact. After the limiting rack comes into contact with the inner wall of the bottom support plate, the limiting rack moves and drives the auxiliary gear to rotate.

[0010] Preferably, the pushing unit includes: The horizontal bar, located inside the bottom support plate, is driven by pneumatic components to move horizontally. The support block is fixedly installed at the center of the bottom of the upper support plate. The support block passes through the horizontal bar and slides relative to the horizontal bar. The surface of the support block is provided with a limiter at the opening of the horizontal bar to enable the support block to move upward relative to the horizontal bar. Furthermore, auxiliary components are provided on the side of the upper support plate and the top of the bottom support plate on one side of the rotation axis to keep the upper support plate moving horizontally upward.

[0011] Preferably, the pneumatic component includes a cylinder fixedly installed on the outside of the base plate, and a piston rod is slidably arranged inside the cylinder, with one end of the piston rod extending through into the interior of the base plate and connecting and fixing to one side of the transverse strip.

[0012] Preferably, the limiting member includes: A trapezoidal block is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the base plate, and the trapezoidal block is located on the path of the moving support block, with the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block facing the side closer to the support block. A square block is fixedly installed on the surface of the support block at the opening of the horizontal strip. The square block has a sloping groove on the side facing the trapezoidal block that is parallel to the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block. As the support block moves and comes into contact with the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block, the square block moves along the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block to complete the combined operation of horizontal movement and vertical adjustment.

[0013] Preferably, the auxiliary component includes: Roller wheels are rotatably mounted on the side of the upper support plate; A pair of fixed plates are provided and symmetrically fixed on the top of the bottom support plate. An auxiliary groove is provided on the opposite side of the fixed plate. The slope of the auxiliary groove is consistent with that of the inclined groove. When the square block moves with the support block and comes into contact with the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block, the rolling wheel moves to the auxiliary groove and rolls, keeping the upper support plate moving horizontally upward.

[0014] Preferably, a rotor is provided below the host to drive rotation, and the rotor rotates in a container containing ink. The viscosity of the ink is obtained by analyzing the rotational resistance detected by the host and displayed on the host's visualization interface. After adjustment by the tilt adjustment mechanism, the center of the container containing ink and the center of the rotor below the host are on the same vertical center line. The rotor below the host is completely submerged in the container containing ink and does not contact the bottom or inner wall of the container.

[0015] This invention also discloses an intelligent viscosity detection method based on ink production, specifically including the following steps: S1. After the container filled with ink is fixed by the clamping part, the container filled with ink on the inclined plate is moved synchronously by the push unit, so that the rotor under the main unit enters the container filled with ink at an angle. S2. Then, by continuing to move the upper support plate, the limiting rack moves to contact the inner wall of the bottom support plate, thereby achieving the rotation of the meshing part and resetting the tilt plate to a horizontal position. The resetting part keeps the container with ink on the tilt plate horizontal while adjusting its position upward, keeping the center of the container and the center of the rotor on the same vertical center line. S3. After completing the positioning settings, start the rotor rotation via the main unit, and record the displayed viscosity value after the rotor rotates stably.

[0016] This invention provides an intelligent viscosity testing device and method based on ink production. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages: 1. This intelligent viscosity testing equipment and method based on ink production utilizes a tilt adjustment mechanism. When the limiting rack moves to contact the inner wall of the bottom support plate, the meshing component rotates, causing the tilt plate to return to a horizontal position. Simultaneously, the container filled with ink on the tilt plate is kept horizontal while its position is adjusted upwards. This allows the container to move and align with the rotor below the main unit, while the rotor tilts and enters the ink along an arc path until it is submerged in the container. This effectively reduces the impact of air bubbles on subsequent testing and ensures accurate detection positioning, thereby improving testing accuracy.

[0017] 2. This intelligent viscosity testing equipment and method based on ink production, by setting up a clamping part, uses a drive motor to drive the rotation of the positive and negative threaded rods. The positive and negative threaded rods drive the sliding sleeve to move relative to each other, so as to achieve stable clamping of the container containing ink by the clamping ring. This not only facilitates the handling of the tested product, but also keeps the container containing ink in the same vertical center line as the rotor entering the container during the adjustment process, so as to reduce air bubbles when the rotor enters and avoid collision problems.

[0018] 3. This intelligent viscosity testing equipment and method based on ink production, by setting up a reset unit, allows the rotor to enter the ink-filled container in an arc-shaped path during the adjustment process, thereby effectively avoiding the generation or retention of air bubbles on the rotor. At the same time, while completing the movement and positioning of the ink-filled container, the container is simultaneously reset to a horizontal position and adjusted upwards. This ensures that the rotor enters the ink intact and maintains alignment and positioning, as well as the depth determination, in one go, effectively improving the efficiency and accuracy of the test.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-11 This invention provides two technical solutions: Example 1: A smart viscosity testing device based on ink production includes a base 1, a support shaft 2, and a main unit 3 forming a rotational viscometer. A lifting assembly connects the support shaft 2 and the main unit 3, allowing the main unit 3 to be positioned on the support shaft 2 for lifting operations. A tilt adjustment mechanism is provided on the base 1 to move a container filled with ink, immersing the detection area below the main unit 3 into the ink container. The tilt adjustment mechanism includes: The bottom support plate 4 is fixed to the base 1. The upper support plate 7 is moved by the reset part 5 inside the bottom support plate 4, and the tilting plate 8 is rotated to be placed horizontally at the same time. The tilting plate 8 and the upper support plate 7 are initially tilted relative to each other, and the clamping part 9 provided on the top of the tilting plate 8 is used to clamp the container containing ink. The reset part 5 includes a rotating shaft 51 mounted on the inclined plate 8. The two ends of the rotating shaft 51 rotate with the protrusions on the top of the upper support plate 7. The interior of the upper support plate 7 is connected to a movable plate 53 via an elastic member 52. The two ends of the movable plate 53 are fixedly mounted with horizontally placed limiting racks 54 via connecting brackets 55. The two ends of the rotating shaft 51 engage with the limiting racks 54 via meshing members 56. When the limiting racks 54 move to contact the inner wall of the bottom support plate 4, they move on their own to rotate the meshing members 56 and achieve the operation of resetting the inclined plate 8 to a horizontal position. The bottom support plate 4 is equipped with a pushing unit 6 to enable the upper support plate 7 to move horizontally, and during the movement, it assists in driving the upper support plate 7 to move upward for adjustment.

[0023] The buttons on the main unit 3 control the corresponding control modules, and the different control sub-modules are connected to the electrical components on the equipment via a wireless network to achieve intelligent control operation, realize real-time control of the main unit 3, drive motor 92 and cylinder 621, and the lifting component realizes the vertical movement and positioning operation of the main unit 3 through existing technology.

[0024] By incorporating a tilt adjustment mechanism, the tilting plate 8 is reset to a horizontal position when the limiting rack 54 moves to contact the inner wall of the bottom support plate 4, thereby rotating the meshing part 56. Simultaneously, the ink-filled container on the tilting plate 8 is kept horizontal while its position is adjusted upwards via the reset part 5. This allows the ink-filled container to move and align with the rotor below the main unit 3, while the rotor below the main unit 3 tilts and enters the ink along an arc-shaped path until it is submerged in the ink-filled container. This effectively reduces the generation of air bubbles that could affect subsequent testing and ensures accurate detection positioning, thereby improving the accuracy of the detection.

[0025] Please see Figures 2-5 In this embodiment of the invention, the clamping part 9 includes: The clamping rings 91 are provided in a symmetrical pair, and the container containing ink is clamped by the clamping rings 91. The drive motor 92 is electrically connected to an external power source. The drive motor 92 can perform forward and reverse rotation operations and can be opened and closed by the host 3. It is installed on the front side of the inclined plate 8. One end of the output shaft of the drive motor 92 is equipped with a forward and reverse threaded rod 93 through a coupling. The opposing threads of the forward and reverse threaded rod 93 are respectively threaded with sliding sleeves 94. A sliding groove 95 is opened on the surface of the inclined plate 8 to accommodate the sliding of the sliding sleeves 94. The sliding sleeves 94 do not rotate in the sliding groove 95. Therefore, when the forward and reverse threaded rod 93 rotates, it drives the two sliding sleeves 94 to move relative to each other or in opposite directions. The top of the sliding sleeve 94 extends to the top of the inclined plate 8 and is fixed to the bottom side of the clamping ring 91.

[0026] By providing a clamping part 9, the drive motor 92 drives the rotation of the positive and negative threaded rods 93. The positive and negative threaded rods 93 drive the sliding sleeve 94 to move relative to each other, so that the clamping ring 91 can stably clamp the container containing ink. This not only facilitates the handling of the product being tested, but also ensures that the container containing ink is in the adjustment process. During this process, the rotor enters the container containing ink and keeps the center of the container and the center of the rotor on the same vertical center line, so as to reduce air bubbles when the rotor enters and avoid collision problems.

[0027] The clamping ring 91 has a buffer pad inside the opposite side ring surface to protect the container wall being clamped.

[0028] Please see Figures 6-8 In this embodiment of the invention, the elastic element 52 includes: The movable groove 521 is located on the side of the upper support plate 7, and the movable plate 53 moves horizontally inside the movable groove 521; The abutment spring 522 is located on the opposite side of the moving groove 521 and the moving plate 53, and both ends of the abutment spring 522 are fixed to the opposite side of the moving groove 521 and the moving plate 53. When the abutment spring 522 is not affected by other external forces, the restoring elasticity enables the moving plate 53 to move towards the side closer to the rotating shaft 51.

[0029] The abutment spring 522 is stretched only when the limiting rack 54 contacts the inner wall of the bottom support plate 4. This stretching is achieved by the thrust provided by the cylinder 621 and the relative force during the contact. In the current equipment, without any other external force, the abutment spring 522 does not stretch temporarily. After the container containing ink is placed between the clamping rings 91 and clamped, the weight of the container will cause the abutment spring 522 to stretch partially. However, the applied weight will keep the tilt angle between the tilting plate 8 and the upper support plate 7 within the tilt range of 30-45 degrees, which will not affect the subsequent test results. The tensile force achieved by the elastic coefficient of the abutment spring 522 is greater than the weight of the container containing ink.

[0030] Please see Figure 7 In this embodiment of the invention, the engaging member 56 includes: The main gear 561 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the rotating shaft 51, and the main gear 561 rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft 51. The main gear 561 penetrates and extends into the interior of the upper support plate 7. The bracket plate 562 is installed at the bottom of the upper support plate 7 and is located directly below the rotating shaft 51. The bracket plate 562 is rotatably connected to the auxiliary gear 563 via the rotating shaft. The auxiliary gear 563 penetrates and extends into the interior of the upper support plate 7 and meshes with the surface of the main gear 561. Furthermore, the limiting rack 54 and the secondary gear 563 are in surface meshing contact. After the limiting rack 54 comes into contact with the inner wall of the bottom support plate 4, the limiting rack 54 moves and drives the secondary gear 563 to rotate.

[0031] Please see Figures 8-11 In this embodiment of the invention, the pushing unit 6 includes: The transverse bar 61 is located inside the bottom support plate 4 and is driven by a pneumatic component 62 to move the transverse bar 61 in the horizontal direction; The support block 63 is fixedly installed at the center of the bottom of the upper support plate 7. The support block 63 passes through the horizontal bar 61 and slides relative to the horizontal bar 61. A limit piece 64 is provided on the surface of the support block 63 at the opening of the horizontal bar 61 to enable the support block 63 to move upward relative to the horizontal bar 61. Furthermore, an auxiliary component 65 is provided on one side of the rotating shaft 51, on the side of the upper support plate 7 and on the top of the bottom support plate 4, to keep the upper support plate 7 moving horizontally upward, that is, the upper support plate 7 does not tilt when it is adjusted upward.

[0032] With the reset unit 5, during the adjustment of the ink-filled container, the rotor enters the ink-filled container in an arc-shaped path, effectively preventing air bubbles from being generated or remaining on the rotor. At the same time, while completing the movement and positioning of the ink-filled container, the container is simultaneously reset to a horizontal position and adjusted upwards. This ensures that the rotor enters the ink intact and maintains alignment and positioning, as well as the depth determination, all in one go, effectively improving the efficiency and accuracy of the detection.

[0033] Please see Figure 8 In this embodiment of the invention, the pneumatic component 62 includes a cylinder 621 fixedly installed on the outside of the base plate 4. The cylinder 621 is connected to an external air passage and is controlled to open and close via the host 3. The cylinder 621 has a self-locking function. A piston rod 622 is slidably arranged inside the cylinder 621. One end of the piston rod 622 extends through the interior of the base plate 4 and is connected and fixed to one side of the transverse strip 61.

[0034] Please see Figure 8 In this embodiment of the invention, the limiting member 64 includes: Trapezoidal block 641 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the bottom support plate 4, and trapezoidal block 641 is located on the path of movement of support block 63, with the inclined surface of trapezoidal block 641 facing the side closer to support block 63. A square block 642 is fixedly installed on the surface of the support block 63 at the opening of the horizontal strip 61. The square block 642 has a groove 643 parallel to the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block 641 on the side facing the trapezoidal block 641. After the square block 642 moves with the support block 63 and comes into contact with the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block 641, the square block 642 moves along the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block 641 to complete the combined operation of horizontal movement and vertical adjustment.

[0035] Please see Figures 9-10 In this embodiment of the invention, the auxiliary component 65 includes: Roller 651 is rotatably mounted on the side of the upper support plate 7; A pair of fixed plates 652 are provided and symmetrically fixed on the top of the bottom support plate 4. An auxiliary groove 653 is provided on the opposite side of the fixed plate 652. The slope of the auxiliary groove 653 is consistent with that of the inclined groove 643. When the square block 642 moves with the support block 63 and comes into contact with the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block 641, the rolling wheel 651 moves to the auxiliary groove 653 and rolls, keeping the upper support plate 7 moving horizontally upward.

[0036] The main unit 3 has a rotor that drives the rotation below it. The rotor rotates in a container filled with ink. The viscosity of the ink is determined by analyzing the rotational resistance detected by the main unit 3 and displayed on the visualization interface of the main unit 3. After adjustment by the tilt adjustment mechanism, the center of the container filled with ink and the center of the rotor below the main unit 3 are on the same vertical center line. The rotor below the main unit 3 is completely submerged in the container filled with ink and does not contact the bottom or inner wall of the container.

[0037] Example 2 differs from Example 1 in that: the present invention also discloses an intelligent viscosity detection method based on ink production, specifically including the following steps: S1. After the container filled with ink is fixed by the clamping part 9, the push unit 6 drives the container filled with ink on the inclined plate 8 to move synchronously, so that the rotor below the main unit 3 can enter the container filled with ink at an angle. S2. Then, by continuing to move the upper support plate 7, the limiting rack 54 moves to contact the inner wall of the bottom support plate 4, thereby rotating the meshing part 56 to reset the tilt plate 8 to the horizontal position. The reset part 5 is used to keep the container with ink on the tilt plate 8 horizontal while adjusting its position upwards, keeping the center of the container and the center of the rotor on the same vertical center line. S3. After completing the positioning settings, start the rotor rotation through the main unit 3, and record the displayed viscosity value after the rotor rotates stably.

[0038] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.

[0039] During operation, the container filled with ink is placed between the opposing clamping rings 91. Then, by starting the drive motor 92, the drive motor 92 drives the rotation of the positive and negative threaded rods 93. The positive and negative threaded rods 93 drive the sliding sleeve 94 to move relative to each other, so that the clamping rings 91 can stably clamp the container filled with ink. Then, cylinder 621 is activated, which drives piston rod 622 and transverse bar 61 to move horizontally, thereby driving support block 63 and upper support plate 7 to move synchronously. At this time, the rotor contacts the ink in the container, and then the continued drive of cylinder 621 enables the upper support plate 7 to continue to move. At this time, the limiting rack 54 contacts the inner wall of the bottom support plate 4 and abuts against it, thereby driving the limiting rack 54 to move in the opposite direction relative to the piston rod 622. The movement of the limiting rack 54 not only stretches the abutting spring 522, but also drives the secondary gear 563 to rotate. The meshing of the secondary gear 563 with the main gear 561 causes the main gear 561 to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby causing the rotating shaft 51 to rotate counterclockwise, which in turn drives the inclined plate 8 to rotate until it is parallel to the upper support plate 7. At the same time, the square block 642 connected to the support block 63 moves to the inclined groove 643 and contacts the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block 641. The square block 642 moves along the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block 641. At the same time, when the square block 642 moves with the support block 63 and contacts the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block 641, the rolling wheel 651 moves to the auxiliary groove 653 and rolls, thereby driving the entire upper support plate 7 to move horizontally upward. During the adjustment process of the ink container, the rotor enters the ink container in an arc-shaped path. When the adjustment is completed, the center of the ink container and the center of the rotor are on the same vertical center line. At the same time, the rotor below the main unit 3 is completely submerged in the ink container and does not contact the bottom or inner wall of the container.
