[0032] Embodiment 1

[0033] See also Figure 1 , is a schematic diagram of the structure of the printing limit device for the plastic bag assembly line of the present application. The printing limit device for the plastic bag assembly line includes a working platform 1, an edge pressing mechanism, a smoothing mechanism, a printing mechanism and a roller mechanism; the edge pressing mechanism is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the transmission channel of the working platform 1, the smoothing mechanism and the printing mechanism are suspended above the transmission channel of the working platform 1, and the roller mechanism is horizontally arranged at the exit of the transmission channel of the working platform 1. When the plastic bag 3 is subjected to assembly line printing processing, it can be laid on the working platform 1, one end of which is wound around the surface of the roller mechanism, the edge pressing mechanism moves inward to limit the edges on both sides of the plastic bag 3, the smoothing mechanism moves downward to ensure the flatness of the surface of the plastic bag 3, the roller mechanism rotates to roll up the plastic bag 3, and at the same time cooperates with the printing mechanism to press down for printing.

Furthermore, protective platforms are provided on both sides of the transmission channel of the working platform 1, and both protective platforms are provided with transverse through grooves 22 (see Figure 5 ), the rear end protrusion of the clamping plate 2 is slidably arranged in the through groove 22, and the output end of the first cylinder 21 is connected to the rear end protrusion of the clamping plate 2. The clamping plate 2 is always located outside the through groove 22, and the first cylinder 21 drives the rear end protrusion to slide in the through groove 22, so that the clamping plate 2 moves toward each other along the transmission channel to limit the edge position of the plastic bag 3.

[0035] See also Figure 4 , which is a schematic diagram of the local structure of the smoothing mechanism. The smoothing mechanism includes two support columns 4 symmetrically arranged above the working platform 1, and the opposite surfaces of the support columns 4 are provided with slide grooves 5, and a slide bar 6 is connected between the two slide grooves 5. The bottom of the slide bar 6 is detachably connected with a pressing plate 15, and a proximity sensor is provided on the pressing plate 15 for sensing the position of the plastic bag 3, so as to achieve smoothing by lightly touching the plastic bag 3 and avoid unnecessary damage. Furthermore, the length of the pressing plate 15 is shorter than the slide bar 6, usually less than or equal to the width of the plastic bag 3, and the pressing plate 15 of appropriate size can be replaced according to actual operation requirements to avoid interference with the splint 2 during operation.

[0036] Furthermore, a compression spring 7 is provided between the slide bar 6 and the bottom of the slide slot 5 , also to prevent the slide bar 6 from being pressed down too much, causing the pressing plate 15 to damage the plastic bag 3 .

[0037] The driving of the slide bar 6 adopts a screw transmission method. Specifically, the screw rod 13 is arranged inside the slide groove 5, and the screw rod 13 is sleeved with a nut seat connected to the slide bar 6. The top of the screw rod 13 is connected to the motor 8 arranged above the support column 4. The motor 8 is fixed to the support column 4 through a bracket 29. The motor 8 drives the screw rod 13 to rotate left and right, and the nut seat moves the slide bar 6 up and down. The two screw rods 13 can be driven by two motors 8 respectively, or by one motor 8. When one motor 8 is used, one screw rod 13 is driven by the motor 8, and the two screw rods 13 are driven by a belt 16 to achieve a better synchronization effect. Specifically, the upper end of the screw rod 13 passes through the through hole of the support column 4 and is connected to the motor 8. The tops of the two screw rods 13 are respectively sleeved with a first belt pulley 14 and a second belt pulley 17, and the two belt pulleys are connected by a belt 16.

[0038] The printing mechanism includes a support frame 9 straddling the working platform 1, a second cylinder 23 is disposed on the top of the support frame 9, and an output end of the second cylinder 23 is downwardly connected to a printing head 10.

[0039] The roller mechanism includes two support plates 11 connected to the exit of the working platform 1 , a roller 12 is connected between the two support plates 11 , one end of the roller 12 is connected to a motor 28 , the motor 28 is disposed on a bracket 27 , and the bracket 27 is fixed on the support plate 11 .

[0040] Working process: When the plastic bag 3 is processed by assembly line printing, it can be laid on the working platform 1, and one end is wound around the surface of the roller 12. Then operate the edge pressing mechanism, turn on the first cylinder 21 to drive the clamps 2 to move closer to each other, the clamps 2 are close to each other, the bottom of the clamps 2 is in contact with the edges of the two sides of the plastic bag 3, and there may even be a pressing situation, so as to limit the edges of the two sides of the plastic bag 3. When the staff judges that the clamps 2 are moved into place, the first cylinder 21 can be closed. Secondly, operate the smoothing mechanism, turn on the motor 8 to drive the screw 13 to rotate, and drive the two threaded rods 13 to rotate at the same time through two belt pulleys and belt 16, so as to drive the slide bar 6 to drive the pressing plate 15 to move downward, so that the compression spring 7 is compressed, and the proximity sensor of the pressing plate 15 detects that it is in place, and the control motor 8 stops running. At this time, the pressing plate 15 is slightly in contact with the plastic bag 3 below. At this time, operate the roller mechanism, turn on the motor 28 to drive the roller 12 to rotate to reel the plastic bag 3, and at the same time, turn on the second cylinder 23 to drive the printing head 10 to print the plastic bag 3.

[0041] Before printing, the smoothing mechanism flattens the plastic bag 3 so that the pattern remains flat and beautiful during printing. While the pressure plate 15 of the smoothing mechanism is pressed down, the compression spring 7 and the proximity sensor can be used to adjust the tension and limit the height, fully adapting to plastic bags 3 of different thicknesses and avoiding scratching the plastic bags 3. The clamping plate 2 of the edge pressing mechanism and the detachable pressure plate 15 of the smoothing mechanism can adapt to plastic bags 3 of different widths.

[0042] Embodiment 2

The bottom end of the slide bar 6 is fixedly connected with a slot 26, and the top end of the pressure plate 15 is fixedly connected with a buckle 25 that matches the slot 26. Both the buckle 25 and the slot 26 are made of magnetic materials, and the two attract each other, and the snap connection is more stable.

[0046] See also Figure 3 , Figure 7 . The support plate 11 that is not connected to the motor 28 includes an upper support plate 19 and a lower support plate that are rotatably connected. One end of the upper and lower support plates is rotatably connected through a rotating shaft 24 or a hinge structure. When the two are aligned, the roller shaft 12 is located between the two. The roller shaft 12 can be replaced by opening the upper support plate 19. In order to ensure a stable connection, a latch 20 is also provided at the connection between the upper and lower support plates. The latch 20 includes two upper latch rings, a lower latch ring and a latch rod. The latch rod is provided with a stopper located between the two upper latch rings.
