DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] In order to further understand the features, technical means, specific objectives and functions of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0025] Reference Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, the utility model provides an offset printing machine for packaging products with an automatic cleaning rubber cylinder, comprising an offset printing machine body 1, on which an impression cylinder 11 and a plate cylinder 12 are rotatably connected, and on which a rubber cylinder 13 capable of contacting the plate cylinder 12 is further arranged, and a printing plate is mounted on the surface of the plate cylinder 12, on which a graphic part and a non-graphic part are engraved. During printing, ink adheres to the graphic part, and the ink is transferred to the substrate by the pressure of the rubber cylinder 13. The offset printing machine body 1 is also provided with a cleaning system 2 capable of cleaning paper scraps on the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13. The cleaning system 2 includes support frames 21 fixed on both sides of the offset printing machine body 1. The cleaning system 2 also includes a cleaner 24 capable of reciprocating along the length direction of the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13. The cleaning system 2 also includes a reciprocating mechanism 23 arranged between the support frames 21 and capable of driving the cleaner 24 to reciprocate. The cleaning system 2 includes a spray assembly 22 capable of spraying water onto the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13. A water absorbing assembly 25 for absorbing water on the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13 is also provided on one side of the cleaner 24.

[0026] During the operation of the offset printing press, the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13 rotate continuously to perform printing. Since paper may produce impurities such as paper scraps during the printing process, these impurities will adhere to the surface of the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13. The cleaning system 2 starts to work. The spray assembly 22 first sprays water onto the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13 to moisten and soften the impurities such as paper scraps attached to the surface of the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13. The reciprocating mechanism 23 drives the cleaner 24 to reciprocate along the length direction of the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13. During the movement, the cleaner 24 cleans the wetted and softened impurities such as paper scraps. At the same time, the water absorption assembly 25 arranged on one side of the cleaner 24 absorbs the moisture on the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13 to prevent excessive moisture from affecting the printing quality.

[0027] The cleaner 24 includes a moving member 241 arranged on the reciprocating mechanism 23, and a cleaning roller 2411 is also arranged on the moving member 241, which is in contact with the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13 respectively. A second rotating driving member 242 is fixed to the side of the cleaner 24 away from the water absorption component 25, and the output end of the second rotating driving member 242 is connected to the cleaning roller 2411. When the cleaning roller 2411 rotates, it can remove paper scraps on the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13.

[0028] The function of the second rotating driving member 242 is to provide rotational power for the cleaning roller 2411 so that the cleaning roller 2411 can rotate continuously. When the cleaning roller 2411 rotates, the paper scraps and other impurities attached to the plate roller 12 and the rubber roller 13 are removed through friction with the surfaces of the plate roller 12 and the rubber roller 13.

[0029] The spray assembly 22 includes a waste liquid collection box 221 arranged in the offset printing machine body 1, and the spray assembly 22 also includes a temporary storage box 224 fixed on the cleaner 24. The temporary storage box 224 is connected to a nozzle 2241 that can spray water onto the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13. The spray assembly 22 also includes a pump body 222 installed on the outside of the offset printing machine body 1 and pumping water in the waste liquid collection box 221 into the temporary storage box 224.

[0030] The pump body 222 is started to pump the water in the waste liquid collection box 221 into the temporary storage box 224. The temporary storage box 224 is fixed on the cleaner 24, and the cleaner 24 reciprocates along the length direction of the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13 under the drive of the reciprocating mechanism 23. When the temporary storage box 224 moves to a suitable position, the nozzle 2241 connected thereto starts to work, spraying water onto the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13, so that impurities such as paper scraps attached to the surface of the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13 are moistened and softened.

[0031] The spray assembly 22 further includes a filter 223 installed on the side of the offset printing machine body 1 and filtering water. The filter 223, the waste liquid collection box 221 and the pump body 222 are connected by a pipeline.

[0032] The water absorbing assembly 25 includes a water absorbing cotton 252 that can be close to the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13. When the water absorbing cotton 252 contacts the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13, it can absorb the moisture of the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13. The water absorbing assembly 25 also includes a telescopic driving member 251 fixed on the cleaner 24, and the output end of the telescopic driving member 251 is connected to a support box 2511, and the water absorbing cotton 252 can be detachably placed in the support box 2511. A heater 2512 that can heat and evaporate the moisture in the water absorbing cotton 252 is also fixed in the support box 2511. The telescopic driving member 251 controls the position of the support box 2511 through telescopic movement, thereby enabling the water absorbing cotton 252 to approach or move away from the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13. When it is necessary to absorb water, the telescopic driving member 251 pushes the supporting box 2511 to make the absorbent cotton 252 contact the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13; when it is not needed, it can be retracted to avoid affecting the work of other components. The heater 2512 can quickly dry the absorbent cotton 252 by heating and evaporating the water, so that it can continuously and effectively absorb the water on the surface of the cylinder, thereby improving the working efficiency of the water absorption component 25.

[0033] The reciprocating mechanism 23 includes a first rotating driving member 233 fixed on the support frame 21, and a lead screw 231 is rotatably arranged between the two support frames 21. The output end of the first rotating driving member 233 is connected to the lead screw 231. The reciprocating mechanism 23 also includes a guide rod 232 arranged on the support frame 21. The lead screw 231 is connected to the cleaner 24 by threads, and the guide rod 232 is slidably connected to the cleaner 24.

[0034] The first rotary drive member 233 is started, and the output rotary power drives the lead screw 231 to rotate. Since the lead screw 231 is connected to the cleaner 24 by threads, the cleaner 24 will perform reciprocating linear motion in the axial direction of the lead screw 231. At the same time, the guide rod 232 is slidably connected to the cleaner 24 to provide guidance for the movement of the cleaner 24, ensuring that the cleaner 24 remains stable during the movement and moves accurately along the length direction of the plate cylinder 12 and the rubber cylinder 13.

[0035] The above embodiments only express one or several implementation methods of the present invention, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be based on the attached claims.
