[0050] Screen printing boasts strong adaptability and a wide range of applications. It can be used on a variety of flat and curved surfaces, as well as complex shapes, such as paper, plastic, glass, ceramics, textiles, and metal. It is commonly used in the production of signs, posters, packaging, apparel printing, and artwork reproduction. Screen printing requires precise color reproduction, especially in multi-color printing or brand color matching. Matching ink colors is crucial to ensure that the printed product's color conforms to the design or customer's color standards.

[0051] The applicant has found that in order to improve the efficiency of ink mixing and ensure the accuracy of ink mixing, there are automatic ink mixing equipment on the market. When mixing ink, different colors of ink, curing agent and diluent can be automatically injected into the container.

[0052] However, the inventors have noted that after the automatic mixing device injects the raw materials into the container, the container still needs to be manually removed from the device and then manually stirred to obtain the final ink. In other words, after the automatic mixing device automatically injects the raw materials, it is still unable to achieve automatic stirring. This is mainly due to the large number of components in the current automatic mixing device and the limited space. Adding an automatic stirring device would cause interference or interference between the components, resulting in the stirring device not being able to function properly.

[0053] The automatic mixing equipment of the present application adopts automated stirring and automated raw material injection, which significantly improves the efficiency of ink mixing. The design fully utilizes the internal space layout of the equipment to avoid mutual interference between various components, making the entire equipment more compact and efficient.

[0054] This application is suitable for the automated preparation of inks. In addition, it can also be applied to the chemical industry (such as the preparation of chemical reagents and solvents), the pharmaceutical industry (precise measurement and mixing of pharmaceutical raw materials, such as the preparation of drug solutions, suspensions, etc.) or the beverage industry (formulation and mixing of beverages, including fruit juices, soft drinks and alcohol), etc.

[0055] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present application provides an automatic mixing device, comprising: a frame 1, a plurality of material storage parts 2, a material mixing part 3, a stirring part 4 and a control terminal 5;

[0056] A plurality of material storage parts 2 are detachably connected to the frame 1;

[0057] The mixing unit 3 is placed on the frame 1, and the mixing unit 3 and the plurality of storage units 2 are arranged opposite to each other along a first direction A;

[0058] The stirring portion 4 is disposed on the frame 1, and is spaced apart from the plurality of material storage portions 2 along the second direction B. The stirring portion 4 is capable of relative movement with the mixing portion 3 along the first direction A, so that the stirring portion 4 extends into the mixing portion 3 for stirring; and

[0059] The control terminal 5 is signal-connected to multiple storage sections 2. The control terminal 5 can obtain target information and generate a first control signal based on the target information. Multiple storage sections 2 can inject corresponding raw materials into the mixing section 3 based on the first control signal. The first direction A is perpendicular to the second direction B.

[0060] Specifically, the frame 1 serves as the basic supporting structure of the entire equipment, carrying and stably fixing all other components, such as the storage part 2, the mixing part 3 and the stirring part 4.

[0061] The frame 1 includes an operating area 11 and a storage area 12 arranged along a first direction A. To facilitate operator operation, the operating area 11 is placed on a support surface, while the storage area 12 is located on a side of the operating area 11 facing away from the support surface. The storage area 12 can be designed based on actual needs. For example, the storage area 12 can be divided into a data storage section and a tool storage section. The side of the storage area 12 facing away from the support surface forms an operating platform, which is used to house the mixing section 3.

[0062] Multiple storage sections 2 are used to store curing agent, diluent, and multiple different colored inks. These sections can be detachably connected to the frame 1 via snap-fit ​​or threaded connections. If a single section 2 fails or is damaged, the detachable design allows for quick replacement, improving the safety and reliability of the equipment. Furthermore, the detachable design allows for the number of sections 2 to be increased or decreased based on production needs, providing the equipment with excellent scalability and flexibility.

[0063] The specific number of the material storage parts 2 is not further limited and can be designed according to actual production needs.

[0064] The mixing section 3 is used to receive raw materials injected from the multiple storage sections 2. The mixing section 3 can be a beaker or a cylinder with an opening along the first direction A, and the opening is toward the multiple storage sections 2. The mixing section 3 can be made of stainless steel, plastic, or other corrosion-resistant materials and has sufficient strength and capacity to accommodate and mix the raw materials.

[0065] The stirring section 4 is used to uniformly mix the various raw materials in the mixing section 3 through mechanical movement to ensure the quality and consistency of the final product, while realizing automated stirring and improving the efficiency of stirring. The stirring section 4 and the multiple storage sections 2 are spaced apart along the second direction B to avoid interference between the stirring section 4 and the multiple storage sections 2. The automatic mixing equipment also includes a driving section (not shown in the figure) arranged on the frame 1. The driving end of the driving section is connected to the stirring section 4, and the driving section is used to drive the stirring section 4 to move along the first direction A; or, the driving end of the driving section is connected to the mixing section 3, and the driving section is used to drive the mixing section 3 to move along the first direction A; or, there are two driving sections, and the two driving sections are respectively connected to the mixing section 3 and the stirring section 4, for synchronously driving the mixing section 3 and the stirring section 4 to move closer to or away from each other along the first direction A.

[0066] Stirring part 4 and driving unit can all be connected with control terminal 5 signal, drive unit and stirring part 4 are controlled to work by control terminal 5, for example, treat that multiple material storage parts 2 are all injected with raw materials, after interval preset time, drive unit and stirring part 4 start to work, by being connected with control terminal 5 signal, can also accurately set and control the operating parameters of drive unit and stirring part 4, such as rotating speed, working time etc., to meet the requirement of different recipes and process conditions. This control algorithm is realized by simply modifying on the existing basis, does not need to pay creative labor, does not repeat them here. Alternatively, control button can also be set on frame 1, treat that multiple material storage parts 2 are all injected with raw materials, manually press control button to control stirring part 4 and driving unit to work. The preferred stirring part 4 and driving unit of the present application can all be connected with control terminal 5 signal, to realize complete automation.

[0067] The stirring part 4 may include a speed regulating motor and a stirring rod. The speed regulating motor is connected to the frame 1 through a driving part, the driving end of the speed regulating motor is connected to the stirring rod, and the speed regulating motor is connected to the control terminal 5 signal. The speed regulating motor can drive the stirring rod to rotate forward and reverse to enhance the stirring effect.

[0068] The control terminal 5 is capable of acquiring target information, such as various data in the production process, such as formula parameters, raw material quantity, mixing time, etc. The control terminal 5 processes and analyzes these data to provide necessary information support for the operation of the equipment. The control terminal 5 generates a first control signal based on the processed data. The first control signal is used to control the multiple storage sections 2 to inject corresponding raw materials into the mixing section 3, as well as to control the working state and parameters of the stirring section 4 and the driving section. By precisely controlling these devices, it can be ensured that the mixing process is carried out in accordance with the predetermined formula and process conditions. The control method of the control terminal 5 is known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0069] The control terminal 5 can be integrated into the rack 1 or designed as a remote control or independent control unit through wireless communication technology. In the present application, the control terminal 5 is preferably integrated into the operating area 11 of the rack 1 to facilitate wiring, reduce external interference, improve the stability of signal transmission, and facilitate on-site monitoring and operation by operators.

[0070] To better facilitate human-computer interaction, the control terminal 5 may include a touch screen located in the operating area 11 of the frame 1. Before the mixing process begins, the operator sets the desired ink volume on the touch screen and inputs parameters such as the material addition ratio, addition sequence, and mixing time according to the engineering table. Once all parameters are confirmed to be correct, the configuration system is activated on the touch screen. The system automatically weighs and adds the materials according to the operator's settings. After the materials are added, the system automatically starts the mixing process. When the mixing time reaches the set time, a system prompt is issued to inform the operator that the mixing operation is complete.

[0071] Through the above technical solution, the automatic mixing equipment provided by the present invention is more conducive to the maintenance and cleaning of the storage section 2 by detachably connecting the multiple storage sections 2 to the frame 1, and can also facilitate the replacement of different types of raw materials such as inks or diluents; the stirring section 4 and the multiple storage sections 2 are spaced apart along the second direction B to ensure that the stirring section 4 and the multiple storage sections 2 do not collide or interfere with each other, thereby ensuring the safety and stability of the equipment operation; the stirring section 4 can move relative to the mixing section 3 along the first direction A, so that the stirring section 4 extends into the mixing section 3 for mixing, and replaces the traditional manual stirring in an automated manner, thereby significantly improving the efficiency of ink mixing and reducing operation time and labor costs; the multiple storage sections 2 are signal-connected to the control terminal 5, and the control terminal 5 can obtain target information and generate a first control signal, thereby ensuring that each storage section 2 injects raw materials in a corresponding proportion into the mixing section 3, thereby improving the accuracy of ink color mixing.

[0072] The automatic mixing equipment of the present application adopts automated stirring and automated raw material injection, which significantly improves the efficiency of ink mixing, fully utilizes the internal space layout of the equipment, avoids mutual interference between various components, and makes the entire equipment more compact and efficient.

[0073] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, it also includes:

[0074] A first driving member (not shown) is provided on the frame 1; the first driving member is connected to the mixing section 3, and the first driving member is connected to the control terminal 5 by signal. The first driving member can drive the mixing section 3 to move or stop moving based on a first control signal, so that the mixing section 3 can be aligned with each of the storage section 2 and the stirring section 4 along the first direction A;

[0075] The stirring portion 4 is slidably disposed on the frame 1 along a first direction A.

[0076] Specifically, the first driving member can drive the mixing part 3 to move in one or more directions. When the first driving member drives the mixing part 3 to move in multiple directions, there can be multiple first driving members, and each first driving member drives the mixing part 3 to move in one direction. For example, there are two first driving members, and the two first driving members drive the mixing part 3 to move in the first direction A and the second direction B respectively. The movement trajectory of the mixing part 3 is designed according to the arrangement of the multiple storage parts 2. It should be noted that in order to ensure that the mixing part 3 can be directly opposite to each storage part 2 and the stirring part 4 in the first direction A, at least one first driving member can drive the mixing part 3 to move in the second direction B. By connecting the first driving member to the control terminal 5 signal, the integrated and intelligent control of the equipment is achieved. The driving part drives the stirring part 4 to slide in the first direction A on the frame 1.

[0077] The first driving component may be a linear motor, a hydraulic cylinder, or a pneumatic cylinder.

[0078] In order to simplify the mechanical transmission system and reduce the manufacturing cost and maintenance difficulty of the equipment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, multiple storage sections 2 are arranged at equal intervals on the frame 1 along the second direction B, which simplifies the complexity of the equipment, makes the equipment more compact and easy to install, and is beneficial to the overall layout of the production line. The first driving member can drive the mixing section 3 to move or stop moving along the second direction B based on the first control signal.

[0079] Specifically, since the mixing section 3 can be moved below each material storage section 2 along the second direction B, the timing and order of each material storage section 2 injecting raw materials into the mixing section 3 can be precisely controlled according to the first control signal. This precise control helps ensure the consistency and accuracy of the blending results.

[0080] In order to ensure the stability of sliding, a slide rail 6 is provided along the second direction B on the operating platform.

[0081] In some embodiments, it further includes:

[0082] Multiple first temperature sensors (not shown in the figure), one first temperature sensor is provided in each storage part 2;

[0083] Multiple first heating components (not shown in the figure), each storage portion 2 is provided with a first heating component;

[0084] Among them, the first temperature sensor in each storage part 2 is connected to the first heating component signal, the first temperature sensor converts the detected temperature into a first signal, and the first heating component can heat based on the first signal.

[0085] Specifically, a first temperature sensor and a first heating assembly are provided in each material storage section 2. The first temperature sensor can monitor the temperature within the material storage section 2 in real time and convert the detected temperature into a first signal. When the actual temperature within the material storage section 2 is lower than the set value, the first heating assembly starts heating. This on-demand heating method helps save energy and also avoids loss or quality degradation of raw materials due to overheating. The provision of the first temperature sensor and the first heating assembly prevents ink solidification and cup formation due to temperature drop, ensuring the effectiveness of subsequent stirring. At the same time, the performance and stability of the raw materials within each material storage section 2 are guaranteed, thereby improving the quality and consistency of the final product.

[0086] The first temperature sensor can be a thermal resistor temperature sensor, a thermocouple temperature sensor, or a semiconductor temperature sensor, etc. The number of the first temperature sensors is the same as the number of the storage parts 2. The first temperature sensor can be fixed in the storage part 2 by a flange, or fixed in the storage part 2 by welding, gluing, etc.

[0087] The first heating component can be a heating tube or a heating belt. When the first heating component is a heating tube, the first heating component can be threadedly connected to the storage part 2 or connected through a flange; when the first heating component is a heating belt, the heating belt can be wrapped around the inner wall or bottom of the storage part 2 through adhesive, clips or fasteners.

[0088] In some embodiments, each storage portion 2 includes:

[0089] A material storage tank (not shown) is detachably mounted on the frame 1, and the material storage tank and the stirring portion 4 are spaced apart along the second direction B;

[0090] One end of the liquid supply pipe (not shown in the figure) is connected to the discharge port of the storage tank, and the other end is opposite to the mixing part 3 along the first direction A.

[0091] Specifically, the arrangement of the storage tanks of the multiple storage sections 2 is not further limited. For example, it can be a linear arrangement, a matrix arrangement or an irregular arrangement. In order to make the overall structure of the equipment more compact, this application preferably arranges the storage tanks of the multiple storage sections 2 in a matrix.

[0092] In order to prevent the liquid supply pipe from interfering with the operation of the stirring part 4 and ensure a stable and uniform stirring process, the other end of the supply pipe can be at a preset distance from the mixing part 3 along the first direction A. In order to further prevent the liquid supply pipe from interfering with the operation of the stirring part 4, in some embodiments, each storage part 2 further includes:

[0093] The second driving member (not shown in the figure) is arranged on the frame 1, and the other ends of the liquid supply pipes of the multiple storage parts 2 are connected to the second driving member. The second driving member is used to drive the other ends of the liquid supply pipes of the multiple storage parts 2 to move along the third direction C. The first direction A, the second direction B and the third direction C are perpendicular to each other.

[0094] Specifically, the second driving member can drive the liquid supply pipes of the multiple material storage sections 2 to reciprocate along the third direction C. Before injecting the raw materials, the second driving member drives the other end of the liquid supply pipe close to the mixing section 3, so that the liquid supply pipe and the mixing section 3 are directly opposite and in contact with the mixing section 3 along the first direction A, thereby preventing splashing of the raw materials during injection. After the raw materials are injected, the second driving member drives the other end of the liquid supply pipe away from the mixing section 3 to facilitate the operation of the stirring section 4.

[0095] The second driving member can be connected to the control terminal 5 signal, and the second driving member can drive the second driving member to move or stop moving based on the first control signal. The control algorithm can be implemented by simple modification on the existing basis without the need for creative labor, and will not be elaborated here.

[0096] In some embodiments, the frame 1 has an operation window (not shown in the figure), a storage space (not shown in the figure), and a through hole (not shown in the figure) connected to the storage space. The operation window can open or close the storage space. Multiple storage parts 2 are provided in the storage space. The other ends of the liquid supply pipes of the multiple storage parts 2 can pass through the through hole and face the mixing part 3 along the first direction A.

[0097] Automatic dispensing equipment also includes:

[0098] A second temperature sensor (not shown) is disposed in the accommodating space; and

[0099] The second heating component (not shown in the figure) is arranged in the accommodating space. The second temperature sensor converts the detected temperature into a second signal, and the second heating component can perform heating based on the second signal.

[0100] Specifically, the operating window can open or close the accommodating space, so that the operator can conveniently inspect, maintain and clean the multiple storage parts 2 arranged in the accommodating space, thereby improving the operating convenience and work efficiency of the equipment. The operating window can be made of transparent acrylic or glass material to facilitate observation.

[0101] The second temperature sensor monitors the temperature within the storage space in real time and converts the detected temperature into a second signal. When the actual temperature within the storage space falls below a set value, the second heating assembly activates heating. This on-demand heating method helps save energy and prevents raw material loss or quality degradation due to overheating. The second temperature sensor and second heating assembly prevent ink solidification and buildup due to temperature drops, ensuring effective subsequent stirring. This also ensures the performance and stability of the raw materials within the multiple storage sections 2, thereby improving the quality and consistency of the final product.

[0102] When the storage temperatures of the raw materials in multiple storage sections 2 are inconsistent, for example, when the storage temperatures of the fixative, diluent and multiple inks are inconsistent, the accommodating space can be set into multiple sub-spaces, and the raw materials with consistent storage temperatures are set in one sub-space. The number of second temperature sensors and second heating components is equal to the number of sub-spaces, and a second temperature sensor and a second heating component are set in each sub-space.

[0103] The selection and connection method of the second temperature sensor can refer to the first temperature sensor, and the selection and connection method of the second heating component can refer to the heating component, which will not be repeated here.

[0104] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, it also includes:

[0105] The weighing part 7 is arranged on the frame 1, and the mixing part 3 is placed on the weighing part 7. The weighing part 7 is used to weigh the weight of the raw materials injected into each storage part 2; the weighing part 7 is connected to the control terminal 5 signal and converts the weighed weight into a third signal. The control terminal 5 can obtain the third signal and judge whether the weight of the raw materials injected into each storage part 2 is qualified based on the third signal.

[0106] Specifically, the weighing unit 7 can ensure that the proportions of various raw materials during the mixing process are accurate. Through the accurate measurement of the weighing unit 7, deviations can be promptly detected and the parameters set in the control terminal 5 can be adjusted in a timely manner to achieve the theoretically required weight, thereby improving the quality and consistency of the final product. The first driving member can be connected to the mixing unit 3 via the weighing unit 7.

[0107] The weighing part 7 can be a digital weighing sensor, an analog weighing sensor, etc. Among them, a digital weighing sensor with a temperature sensor is preferred to avoid measurement errors when the temperature difference is large, so that the weighing part 7 can achieve accurate measurement under different temperature conditions.

[0108] In some embodiments, it further includes:

[0109] Multiple pressure valves (not shown in the figure), the outlet of each storage part 2 is connected to a pressure valve;

[0110] There are multiple metering pumps (not shown in the figure), and the outlet of each storage part 2 is connected to a metering pump.

[0111] Specifically, by installing a pressure valve at the outlet of each storage section 2, the pressure within the storage tank can be precisely controlled to ensure that the raw materials flow out under appropriate pressure conditions. This helps maintain a stable feeding speed and flow rate, and prevents uneven feeding or equipment damage caused by pressure fluctuations.

[0112] The outlet of each material storage section 2 is connected to a metering pump, which precisely controls the volume or weight of raw materials delivered to the mixing section 3 according to preset parameters. This precise metering helps ensure the correct ratio of various raw materials during the blending process, thereby improving the quality and consistency of the final product and ensuring the efficiency, accuracy, and high quality of the blending process. When the materials are initially added, the metering pump can operate at full speed. As the added amount approaches the set value, the flow rate is gradually reduced to accurately control the injection amount of each raw material.

[0113] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, it also includes:

[0114] The manipulator 8 is arranged on the frame 1; the frame 1 has a buffer platform, and the manipulator 8 is used to clamp the mixing part 3 and place the mixing part 3 on the buffer platform.

[0115] Specifically, the robot 8 realizes automated operation in the mixing process, reduces manual intervention, improves production efficiency and accuracy, and reduces errors and safety risks that may be caused by manual operation.

[0116] The cache platform is arranged on the side of the storage area 12 away from the support surface, and the cache platform is adjacent to the operating platform. The base of the manipulator 8 can be fixed to the frame 1 by welding or bolts. The manipulator 8 can be connected to the control terminal 5 by signal, and the operation of the manipulator 8 is controlled by the control terminal 5. The control algorithm can be realized by simple modification on the existing basis, without the need for creative labor, and will not be described here. Alternatively, a control button can be provided on the frame 1, and after the stirring part 4 completes the stirring, the control button is manually pressed to control the operation of the manipulator 8. In the present application, the manipulator 8 can be connected to the control terminal 5 by signal to achieve fully automated operation.
