DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0034] The following is combined with Figure 1-Figure 4 This application is described in further detail.
[0035] The present application embodiment discloses an automatic cleaning device for a rubber roller. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cleaning device includes two rubber cylinders 1 and two pairs of support frames 2. Each pair of support frames 2 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the printing press housing, and a cleaning mechanism 3 is provided on one side of each rubber cylinder 1, so that the two rubber cylinders 1 can be cleaned at the same time, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency. A pair of support frames 2 corresponds to a cleaning mechanism 3, and a pair of support frames 2 provides support for the cleaning mechanism 3.
[0036] Each cleaning mechanism 3 includes a pair of support plates 31, one support plate 31 corresponds to one support frame 2, one support plate 31 is located between the pair of support frames 2, and the support plate 31 is slidably connected to the support frame 2. A reeling shaft 32 and an unreeling shaft 33 are rotatably connected between the two support plates 31.
[0037] A rolled cleaning cloth 34 is wound around the unwinding shaft 33. The cleaning cloth 34 is a non-woven fabric. One end of the unwinding cleaning cloth 34 is fixedly wound around the reeling shaft 32. The unwinding shaft 33 is located on the side of the reeling shaft 32 close to the rubber cylinder 1. A driving mechanism for driving the reeling shaft 32 to rotate is installed on one of the support plates 31. The rotation of the reeling shaft 32 can be controlled by the driving mechanism, thereby realizing the reeling operation of the cleaning cloth 34. Each end of the unwinding shaft 33 is connected to the corresponding support plate 31 for damping rotation. Such a design can ensure that the unwinding shaft 33 can maintain a stable rotation state when releasing the cleaning cloth 34.
[0038] The support frame 2 is also provided with a control mechanism 4 for driving the cleaning mechanism 3 to move toward or away from the rubber cylinder 1. When the rubber cylinder 1 needs to be cleaned, the cleaning mechanism 3 is driven to move by the control mechanism 4, so that the cleaning cloth 34 is closely attached to the rubber cylinder 1, and then the rotation of the rubber cylinder 1 is adjusted, so that the rubber cylinder 1 can be automatically cleaned.
[0039] In order to facilitate the replacement of the cleaning cloth 34 on the winding shaft 32 and the unwinding shaft 33, the side of each pair of support plates 31 close to each other is also rotatably connected to a winding rotating base 321 and an unwinding rotating base 331. The winding rotating base 321 is detachably connected to each end of the winding shaft 32 by screws, and the unwinding rotating base 331 is detachably connected to each end of the unwinding shaft 33 by screws. This detachable design allows for convenient and quick replacement of the cleaning cloth 34 when it is used up or needs to be replaced. The driving mechanism can be a motor, a motor, etc. that drives one of the winding rotating bases 321 to rotate.
[0040] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 A receiving frame 35 is fixedly connected between each pair of support plates 31, and the receiving frame 35 is located on the side of the unwinding shaft 33 close to the rubber cylinder 1. The setting of the receiving frame 35 plays a transitional role, so that the cleaning cloth 34 can pass through the receiving frame 35 and then be wound on the reeling shaft 32 after being unwound from the unwinding shaft 33. A rubber layer 36 is also fixedly connected to the side of the receiving frame 35 close to the rubber cylinder 1, so that the cleaning cloth 34 can better fit the surface of the rubber cylinder 1 when it contacts the rubber cylinder 1, thereby improving the cleaning effect.
[0041] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3A water spray pipe 37 is also provided below the receiving frame 35. The water spray pipe 37 is fixedly connected between a pair of support plates 31, and a plurality of water spray holes are provided on the side wall of the water spray pipe 37. One end of the water spray pipe 37 extends and is connected to a water tank. Cleaning liquid is pumped into the water spray pipe 37 to spray the cleaning liquid. The cleaning cloth 34 will pass through the receiving frame 35 and the water spray pipe 37 at the same time during the unwinding process. The cleaning cloth 34 in contact with this section of the receiving frame 35 can be sprayed with cleaning liquid intermittently through the water spray pipe 37. The wet cleaning cloth 34 can clean the rubber cylinder 1 more effectively. When the reel 32 rewinds the cleaning cloth 34 and pulls the new cleaning cloth 34 to unwind, the water spray pipe 37 will spray the cleaning liquid on the newly unwound cleaning cloth 34 again, ensuring that the wet cleaning cloth 34 can be used for each cleaning.
[0042] The control mechanism 4 includes a driving cylinder 41 fixedly connected to each support frame 2, and one driving cylinder 41 corresponds to one support plate 31. The piston rod of each driving cylinder 41 is fixedly connected to the corresponding support plate 31. When the position of the cleaning mechanism 3 needs to be adjusted, it is only necessary to start the two driving cylinders 41 on a pair of support frames 2 at the same time, and the entire cleaning mechanism 3 can be driven to move toward or away from the rubber cylinder 1 by extending and retracting the piston rods of the driving cylinders 41.
[0043] In order to further enhance the structural stability between the support plates 31 and provide a better support point for the piston rod of the driving cylinder 41, a support shaft 38 is fixedly connected between each pair of support plates 31. Each end of the support shaft 38 penetrates the corresponding support plate 31 and is fixedly connected to the piston rod of the corresponding driving cylinder 41. In this way, the two support plates 31 can always maintain a relatively stable positional relationship during the movement, thereby ensuring that the cleaning mechanism 3 can be moved to the predetermined position smoothly and accurately. A reinforcement rod 39 is also fixedly connected between each pair of support plates 31.
[0044] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 , the side of each pair of support plates 31 facing away from each other is fixedly connected with a sliding rod 5. At the same time, the side of each pair of support frames 2 close to each other is provided with a sliding groove 21, one sliding rod 5 corresponds to one sliding groove 21, and one end of each sliding rod 5 close to the support frame 2 is rotatably connected to a roller 51. The roller 51 forms a rolling fit with the corresponding sliding groove 21.
[0045] When the control mechanism 4 drives the cleaning mechanism 3 to move, the roller 51 will roll along the sliding groove 21. This structural design provides a clear guide for the movement of the cleaning mechanism 3, ensuring that it can move stably along the predetermined path, thereby further improving the reliability and stability of the entire device. Compared with direct sliding friction, rolling friction has less resistance, so this design can significantly reduce the wear between the sliding rod 5 and the sliding groove 21 and extend its service life. The rolling fit also makes the movement of the cleaning mechanism 3 smoother, improving the response speed and operational flexibility of the entire device.
[0046] The implementation principle of the automatic cleaning device for a rubber cylinder in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: when it is necessary to clean the rubber cylinder 1, each driving cylinder 41 is started at the same time, and each cleaning mechanism moves toward the direction close to the corresponding rubber cylinder 1 under the drive of the driving cylinder 41, and at the same time, the water spray pipe 37 sprays the cleaning liquid on the cleaning cloth 34 passing through the receiving frame 35. When the cleaning cloth passing through each rubber pad contacts the corresponding rubber cylinder 1, each rubber cylinder 1 is adjusted to rotate, and the cleaning cloth 34 can clean the rubber cylinder 1 at this time.
[0047] When the rubber cylinder 1 rotates for about 3 seconds, the driving mechanism is started to drive the reel 32 to rotate, thereby pulling the cleaning cloth 34 to unwind, so as to ensure that the clean section of the cleaning cloth 34 can wipe and clean the rubber cylinder 1.
[0048] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
