[0031] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a flow groove 4 is provided on one side of the rotating support disk 1, and the flow groove 4 is connected with the cleaning cylinder 3 and the interior of the material placing cylinder 2. By setting the flow groove 4 provided on the upper end of the rotating support disk 1 to be connected with the flow groove 4 and the interior of the cleaning cylinder 3 and hollowing out the middle of the rotating support disk 1, the material flowing in the flow groove 4 is guided, thereby ensuring that the material inside the device can be discharged to the outside of the device when accumulated and can be stably discharged to the outside of the device when the device is cleaned.

[0032] Working principle: By controlling the rotation speed of the rotating support disk 1, when the rotating support disk 1 stops rotating, the rotating belt 17 in the middle of the device will drive the rotating connecting cylinders 16 on both sides to rotate in the same direction at the same time. When the moving positions of the receiving cylinder 11 and the pad printing cylinder 20 are accurate, the rotating belt 17 below stops rotating, and then the pad printing cylinder 20 and the receiving cylinder 11 above the rotating support disk 1 are driven to move to the inside of the placing cylinder 2 above the rotating support disk 1 at the same time under the operation of the two telescopic motors 15. The pad printing cylinder 20 prints and dyes the material inside the placing cylinder 2. At the same time, the receiving cylinder 11 provides support and guidance for the suction force generated by the inlet and outlet air pump 12 under the upper guide tube 13. The printed and dyed materials inside are adsorbed, and the pad printing cylinder 20 and the receiving cylinder 11 are moved upward by the extension of the telescopic motor 15, and the pad printing cylinder 20 and the receiving cylinder 11 are driven to rotate toward the outside of the rotating support plate 1 under the continued rotation of the rotating belt 17. At this time, the rotating support plate 1 is rotated under the control of the power device below, and the receiving cylinder 11 rotates to the top of the prepared placement component. When the pad printing cylinder 20 moves to the top of the coloring component on one side, the rotating belt 17 stops rotating, and the receiving cylinder 11 is driven to move downward by the telescopic motor 15, and the gas inside the conduit 13 moves outward, so as to achieve the effect of placing the material adsorbed by the receiving cylinder 11, and the pad printing cylinder 20 When it moves to one side of the rotating support plate 1, the telescopic motor 15 below is adjusted according to the number of printing and dyeing times, so that after the pigment inside the pad printing cylinder 20 reaches the number of uses, it moves down to the outside coloring component for coloring. After the material collection cylinder 11 has finished unloading and the pad printing cylinder 20 has been colored, the rotating belt 17 is rotated again. When the material collection cylinder 11 and the pad printing cylinder 20 move to the top of the next material placement cylinder 2, the rotating support plate 1 stops rotating, and the above steps of printing and dyeing material collection are repeated. A cleaning cylinder 3 is set between the multiple material placement cylinders 2, and the cleaning cylinder 3 is set to contact the pad printing cylinder 20 and not contact the conduit 13. The ring inside the cylinder 3 is set to be larger than the specifications of the printing and dyeing material, so that the ring inside the cleaning cylinder 3 can squeeze, remove and isolate the excess dye on the pad printing cylinder 20, ensuring that the pad printing cylinder 20 is stable and neat when pad printing the subsequent materials. The two telescopic motors 15 are directly coordinated with the rotating belt 17 and the rotating support disk 1 to rotate and retract, so that the device can collect the printed and dyed materials and remove the excess dye while printing and dyeing. At the same time, by arranging multiple material placement cylinders 2 between the material collection cylinder 11 and the pad printing cylinder 20, the printed and dyed materials can be cooled and taken out, thereby ensuring the efficiency and safety of the device when automatically collecting the printed materials.
