In addition, in the description of the present invention, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0023] like Figure 1-4, the ink uniforming device of the silk-screen printing equipment provided by the utility model comprises an ink scraping and ink returning device 20 and a blowing device 30, the blowing device 30 is longitudinally placed on the main device 10, the ink scraping and ink returning device 20 is transversely placed on the main device 10, the longitudinal axis extension line of the blowing device 40 and the transverse axis extension line of the ink scraping and ink returning device 20 are perpendicular in the same plane, when in use, the ink scraping and ink returning device 20 moves back and forth transversely passing in front of the blowing device 30, the blowing device 30 spreads the ink on one side outside the printing area to the middle position of the printing area, and the ink scraping and ink returning device 20 pushes the ink on the other side outside the printing area and the left and right sides to the middle position of the printing area.

[0024] The ink scraping and returning device 20 is horizontally installed on the main device 10, and the ink scraping and returning device 20 includes a longitudinal ink return component, a transverse ink return and scraping component, a connecting piece 211 and a control support 201. The longitudinal ink return component is installed on the control support 201, and the transverse ink return and scraping component is installed on the control support and is placed on one side of the longitudinal ink return component. One end of the control support 201 is connected to the connecting piece 211, and the longitudinal ink return component and the transverse ink return and scraping component are arranged in parallel on the control support 201.

[0025] The longitudinal ink return assembly includes a longitudinal ink return knife 208 for returning ink, a connecting rod 207, a slide rail 206, a longitudinal moving mechanism 210 and a longitudinal lifting mechanism 209. The longitudinal lifting mechanism 209 is installed on the longitudinal moving mechanism 210 and is used to drive the longitudinal lifting mechanism 209 to move horizontally. The longitudinal moving mechanism 210 is installed on the slide rail 206 to slide back and forth longitudinally. One end of the connecting rod 207 is connected to the longitudinal lifting mechanism 209, and the other end of the connecting rod 207 is connected to the longitudinal ink return knife 208.

[0026] The longitudinal ink return blade 208 is installed perpendicularly to the screen printing scraper blade, and the blowing device 30 includes a blowing port 301 installed perpendicularly to the screen printing scraper blade on the frame above the screen printing screen frame on the opposite side of the longitudinal ink return blade 208, and an air source connected to the blowing port 301 through a pipe. The ink accumulated on both sides of the screen printing scraper blade is blown from the edge to the center area of ​​the screen printing by the gas blown out of the blowing port 301 on one side; on the other side, the longitudinal lifting mechanism 209 lowers the longitudinal ink return blade 208 when it is at the edge position, and the longitudinal moving mechanism 210 drives the longitudinal ink return blade 208 to push the ink to the center area of ​​the screen printing, and after the longitudinal lifting mechanism 209 raises the longitudinal ink return blade 208, it drives the longitudinal ink return blade 208 back to the edge to repeat the above ink return action.

[0027] like Figure 2As shown, when the longitudinal ink return knife 208 is installed at the front end of the control support 201 in the transverse printing direction of the ink scraper, the ink return action of the longitudinal ink return knife 208 at the edge of the silk screen scraper does not affect the transverse ink scraper 202 in performing transverse ink scraping printing and ink return and ink distribution, and is more conducive to pushing the edge ink back to the printing center area.

[0028] The transverse ink return and scraping assembly includes a transverse ink return lifting mechanism 212, a transverse ink scraping lifting mechanism 204, a transverse ink scraping blade 202 and a transverse ink return blade 203. The transverse ink return lifting mechanism 212 and the transverse ink scraping lifting mechanism 204 are respectively arranged on the control support 201. The transverse ink return lifting mechanism 212 is arranged in parallel with the transverse ink scraping lifting mechanism 204. The transverse ink scraping blade 202 is connected to the transverse ink scraping lifting mechanism 204 through a connecting rod, and the transverse ink return blade 203 is connected to the transverse ink return lifting mechanism 212 through a connecting rod.

[0030] According to the transverse scraping and printing speeds and the transverse ink return and uniform ink distribution speeds of the transverse scraper 202 and the transverse ink return knife 203 and the length of the longitudinal ink return knife 208, the working frequency of the longitudinal ink return knife 208 is adjusted to ensure that within the cycle time of the longitudinal ink return knife 208 completing a complete ink return action, the transverse printing and transverse ink return and uniform ink distribution strokes of the transverse scraper 202 and the transverse ink return knife 203 are not greater than the length of the longitudinal ink return knife 208, thereby ensuring that the edge ink is contacted by the longitudinal ink return knife 11.

[0031] like Figure 1 Figure 3 As shown, the blowing device 30 includes a blowing frame, a plurality of air outlets arranged in the blowing frame, the plurality of air outlets are evenly arranged in the blowing frame, the blowing outlet 301 of the blowing frame is flat, and the plurality of air outlets are connected to an air source through pipes respectively.

[0032] The length of the blowing port 301 is not less than the printing stroke of the silk screen scraper, and the blowing port 301 includes an air volume adjustment mechanism and an axial rotation angle adjustment mechanism. The blowing port 301 is fixed in the transverse printing direction, so its length needs to cover the ink accumulation area on one side. By adjusting the air volume and rotation angle of the blowing port 301, it can be ensured that the accumulated ink is blown to the printing center area and a gas protection layer is formed on the ink on the entire screen surface.

[0033] The gas source of the blowing device 30 is a mixing gas distribution device, which can mix various gases with high precision to protect the printing ink; it can also mix the ink solvent and replenish the solvent volatilized by the printing ink by blowing.

Using a cylinder or a motor is a conventional method for the longitudinal ink return knife 208 to move up and down and move back and forth longitudinally. Other methods such as electromagnetics are also within the protection scope of this embodiment.

[0035] A screen printing device comprises a main device 10 and an ink uniforming device, wherein the ink uniforming device is arranged on the main device 10.

[0036] The main device 10 includes a frame 101, a main control board 102 installed on the front of the frame 101, a workbench placed on the top surface of the frame 101, a fine-tuning button 104 is installed at each end of the side of the workbench, an emergency stop plate 103 is installed between the two fine-tuning buttons 104, a table 105 is installed on the workbench, a net supporting frame 109 is installed on the table 105, a grid support arm 111 is installed at each end of the net supporting frame 109, a movable support 112 is installed on the grid support arm 111, the movable support 112 is installed on the lifting frame 113, a U-shaped inlay 107 is installed on the slider on the movable support 112, a cylinder 106 is installed in the groove of the U-shaped inlay 107, and a motor 108 is installed on the back side of the movable support 112, and the motor 108 drives the slider to move back and forth longitudinally on the movable support 112 through a pulley, so that the ink scraping and ink returning device 20 completes the longitudinal movement as a whole.

[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
