[0027] In this embodiment, the structures of the first jaw assembly 2 and the second jaw assembly 3 are the same, and both include a telescopic cylinder 21, an opening jaw cylinder 22 and an elastic jaw head 23. The telescopic cylinder 21 is installed on the support plate 1. The opening jaw cylinder 22 is connected to the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 21. The elastic jaw head 23 includes two parts, which are respectively connected to the driving ends of the opening jaw cylinder 22.

[0028] Further, the elastic jaw head 23 includes a jaw fixing plate 231, a jaw head 232, a spring 233 and a guide rod 234. One end of the guide rod 234 is fixed on the jaw head 232, and the other end is inserted through the jaw fixing plate 231. There is a spring 233 between the jaw fixing plate 231 and the jaw head 232. The jaw fixing plate 231 can slide along the guide rod 234, and the spring 233 is used to adjust the clamping force between the jaw fixing plate 231 and the jaw head 232, so that the clamping material can be conveniently replaced at any time. For example, the brush can be replaced with a sponge.

[0029] In this embodiment, the brush feeding mechanism 5 includes a displacement adjustment mechanism 51, a brush guide plate 52, a brush spring clip 53 and a pushing mechanism 54. The brush guide plate 52 is arranged on the displacement adjustment mechanism 51. The brush spring clip 53 is fixedly arranged above the brush guide plate 52. 100 new brushes are stacked inside the brush spring clip 53. The brush spring clip 53 includes a housing, and a pushing port and a discharging port are arranged at the bottom of the housing. The pushing mechanism 54 pushes the new brush 100 out of the discharging port of the brush spring clip 53 through the pushing port.

[0030] Further, a guide groove 521 is arranged on the brush guide plate 52. The brush spring clip 53 is arranged above the guide groove 521. After the brush is pushed out by the pushing mechanism 54, it slides along the guide groove 521.

[0031] Further, the displacement adjustment mechanism 51 includes a moving adjustment plate 511, a first linear guide rail 512 and a translation cylinder 513. The first linear guide rail 512 is arranged at the bottom of the moving adjustment plate 511, and the moving adjustment plate 511 can slide along the first linear guide rail 512. The telescopic rod of the translation cylinder 513 is connected to the moving adjustment plate 511.

[0032] Further, the pushing mechanism 54 includes a pushing cylinder 541 and a pushing block 542. The telescopic end of the pushing cylinder 541 is connected to the pushing block 542 through a connecting piece 543.

[0034] Further, a second linear guide 55 is provided between the moving adjustment plate 511 and the ejector rod 5421, and the ejector rod 5421 can slide along the second linear guide 55.

[0035] In addition, a brush collection box 6 is further included for collecting the replaced dirty brushes.

[0036] Based on the brush replacement mechanism of the stencil wiping machine in this embodiment, the replacement steps of the dirty brush 101 are as follows:

[0037] (1) The stencil wiping machine moves the stencil wiping machine brush base 102 to a specified position.

[0038] (2) The telescopic cylinder 21 of the first jaw assembly 2 extends, so that the two jaw heads 232 are flush with the bottom of the dirty brush 101; the opening jaw cylinder 22 retracts, the two jaw heads 232 clamp the dirty brush 101, and then the telescopic cylinder 21 retracts to clamp the dirty brush 101.

[0039] (3) The translation cylinder 513 of the displacement adjustment mechanism 51 retracts, moving the brush magazine 53 away from the wiping head to avoid interference between the brush magazine 53 and the telescopic cylinder 21 of the first jaw assembly 2 or the second jaw assembly 3 when the rotary cylinder 4 rotates.

[0040] (4) The ejector cylinder 541 of the ejector mechanism 54 retracts, driving the ejector block 542 to eject the new brush 100 at the lowermost side of the brush magazine 53 to a specified position, and the ejector cylinder 541 extends to move the ejector block 542 back to its original position. The new brush 100 in the brush magazine 53 falls due to its own weight, facilitating the next ejection.

[0041] (5) The translation cylinder 513 extends, moving the new brush 100 below the second jaw assembly 3. The telescopic cylinder 21 of the second jaw assembly 3 extends, the opening jaw cylinder 22 retracts to clamp the new brush 100, then the telescopic cylinder 21 retracts to clamp the new brush 100, and finally the translation cylinder 513 retracts.

[0042] (6) The rotary cylinder 4 drives the support plate 1 to rotate 180°, and the first jaw assembly 2 and the second jaw assembly 3 exchange positions.

[0043] (7) When the first jaw assembly 2 passes above the dirty brush collection box 6, the opening jaw cylinder 22 extends to throw the dirty brush 101 into the dirty brush collection box 6.

[0044] After the rotary cylinder 4 drives the first jaw assembly 2 and the second jaw assembly 3 to interchange positions in place, the telescopic cylinder 21 of the second jaw assembly 3 extends, so that the new brush 101 contacts the brush base 1 of the screen wiping machine. The opening clamp cylinder 22 extends, places the new brush 101 on the brush base 1 of the screen wiping machine, and the telescopic cylinder 21 retracts.

[0045] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clear illustration and are not limitations on the implementation manners. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation manners here. And the obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom still fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
