[0025] See also Figure 1 and 2In one embodiment of the utility model, the nozzle mounting structure includes a bracket 1; wherein the bracket 1 is provided with a first mounting position 4 and a second mounting position 5, the first mounting position 4 is used to mount the nozzle 2, and the second mounting position 5 is used to mount the ink circuit module 3; the nozzle 2 and the ink circuit module 3 are connected through a pipeline. In this way, when the nozzle 2 mounting structure moves, it can drive the nozzle 2 mounted on the first mounting position 4 and the ink circuit module 3 mounted on the second mounting position 5 to move together, thereby alleviating the inconvenience caused by the length of the pipeline on the movement of the nozzle 2, and realizing the smooth movement of the nozzle 2.

[0026] Specifically, in some embodiments, the bracket 1 includes a bottom plate 11 and a vertical plate 12 connected to opposite ends of the bottom plate 11; the first mounting position 4 is provided on the bottom plate 11, and the first mounting position 4 includes a receiving hole 111, and the receiving hole 111 penetrates the bottom plate 11; the receiving hole 111 is used to receive the nozzle 2, and the ink droplets ejected by the nozzle 2 drip through the receiving hole 111. In this way, the nozzle 2 is arranged at the bottom, which is conducive to reducing the influence of the ink droplets on other structures, and at the same time, it can also reduce the influence of other structures on the ink droplets, and improve the concentration of the installation structure.

[0027] Furthermore, the first installation position 4 further includes a nozzle fixing plate 112, and the nozzle 2 is detachably connected to the nozzle fixing plate 112; the nozzle fixing plate 112 is provided with an opening, and the opening is used for the nozzle 2 to pass through; the nozzle fixing plate 112 is located above the receiving hole 111, and the nozzle fixing plate 112 is detachably connected to the bottom plate 11. That is, the nozzle 2 is installed in the receiving hole 111 through the nozzle fixing plate 112, and different nozzle fixing plates 112 are replaced to adapt to different nozzles 2.

[0028] In one embodiment, the vertical plate 12 is provided with a plurality of first mounting holes 121, and the vertical plate 12 is used to connect the ink circuit module control board 6 through the mounting holes; the ink circuit module control board 6 is electrically connected to the ink circuit module 3; and the ink circuit module control board 6 is located on the side of the vertical plate 12 facing away from the bottom plate 11. The ink circuit module control board 6 is used to control the operation of the ink circuit module 3. For example, the ink circuit module control board 6 can control the flow rate and flow speed of the ink circuit. It should be noted that the ink circuit module control board 6 is a prior art, and this example does not specifically limit this. Among them, the ink circuit module control board 6 is connected to the side of the vertical plate 12 facing away from the bottom plate 11 through the first mounting holes 121, that is, in this embodiment, it is connected to the outer side of the vertical plate 12; and the vertical plate 12 is provided with a plurality of first mounting holes 121; such a setting provides a larger installation space for the installation of the ink circuit module control board 6, which not only improves the stability of the ink circuit module control board 6 but also improves the flexibility of installation.

[0029] Furthermore, the bracket 1 further includes a mounting plate 13, both ends of which are connected to the vertical plate 12 respectively; the mounting plate 13 is provided with a second mounting position 5 and a plurality of second mounting holes 131, and the second mounting position 5 is used to connect the ink circuit module 3 through the mounting holes. The arrangement of the mounting plate 13 provides a larger installation space for the installation of the ink circuit module 3, and the arrangement of the plurality of second mounting holes 131 is conducive to improving stability and installation flexibility.

In this embodiment, the top of the mounting plate 13 is higher than the top of the vertical plate 12. The ink circuit module 3 is installed on the mounting plate 13 and can also be installed on the top of the vertical plate 12 to further improve the stability of the ink circuit module 3.

[0031] Furthermore, the mounting plate 13 is also used to connect and install the nozzle control board 7, and the nozzle control board 7 is electrically connected to the nozzle 2; the nozzle control board 7 is located on the side of the vertical plate 12 facing the bottom plate 11, and the nozzle 2 is located on the side of the mounting plate 13 facing the bottom plate 11. The nozzle control board 7 is used to control the nozzle 2 to spray ink droplets, including generating and adjusting the driving waveform.

[0033] It should be further explained that the nozzle 2 mounting structure of the utility model can be used to observe different nozzles 2 and different inks. Specifically, when different nozzles 2 need to be observed, they can be replaced through the detachable design of the nozzle fixing plate 112; then, the nozzle control board 7 and the ink path module control board 6 corresponding to the nozzle 2 to be observed also need to be replaced. It can be understood that the nozzle control board 7 and the ink path module control board 6 store parameter information corresponding to the nozzle 2. In addition, if different inks need to be observed, there is no need to replace the nozzle control board 7 and the ink path module control board 6, and the cleaning liquid can be circulated through the ink path module 3 for cleaning and filtering.
