Compared with traditional printing equipment, digital industrial printers have many advantages, such as small footprint, high degree of automation, less labor, low energy consumption and high efficiency. They are widely used in clothing, home furnishing fabrics, sampling, T-shirts, canvas bags, cushions, scooters, flags, textile fabrics, etc. Existing digital industrial printers mainly use U-shaped tension rollers to keep the printing medium tensioned, but the U-shaped tension roller can only be used as a constant tension roller and cannot adjust the tension it can provide.
[0003] The utility model patent with the authorization announcement number CN218057634U discloses an adjustable tension swing roller for a digital printing printer, including a swing roller body, a rotating roller and a counterweight roller, which are arranged side by side, and a swing frame is arranged at both ends of the three roller bodies; the swing roller body and the rotating roller are connected to the swing frame through a rotating shaft, and the rotating shafts at both ends of the rotating roller are provided with mounting shafts through the swing frame; the rotating roller is arranged between the swing roller body and the counterweight roller, the swing roller body and the rotating roller are arranged close to one end of the swing frame, the counterweight roller is arranged at the other end of the swing frame, and an adjustment slot is arranged on the swing frame, and a slider is installed at the end of the counterweight roller, and the slider is arranged in the adjustment slot and slides along the adjustment slot. The swing roller provided by the adjustable tension swing roller for the digital printing printer changes the center of gravity position of the overall structure by setting a counterweight roller, thereby changing the tension that the swing roller body can provide, and can better perform paper feeding and ensure the stability of printing. However, the adjustable tension swing roller has high requirements on the installation space size of the mechanism, and cannot accurately control the tension size. Utility Model Content
