[0025] As Figures 1-6 shown, an ink cartridge filling machine for residual material cleaning and suction includes a support mechanism 1. An ink filling cylinder 2 for containing pigment is arranged at intervals on the support mechanism 1. A filling and cleaning mechanism 3 for filling the pigment in the ink filling cylinder 2 and treating the residual material is arranged on the support mechanism 1;

[0026] In this embodiment: The support mechanism 1 includes a rear plate 11. A housing 12 is arranged on the front side of the rear plate 11. A spring 13 is arranged inside the housing 12 below the injection cylinder 2. The upper end of the spring 13 is fixed to a support plate 14, so that the spring 13 pushes the support plate 14 upward to push and limit the ink cartridge placed on the support plate 14, improving the stability of the contact between the ink cartridge and the injection cylinder 2.

[0027] In this embodiment: The filling and cleaning mechanism 3 includes a cylinder 31 fixed to the support mechanism 1. The lower end of the cylinder 31 is fixed to a lifting seat 32. A sink corresponding to the injection cylinder 2 is arranged at the lower end of the lifting seat 32. A sliding cavity 321 communicating with the sink is arranged inside the lifting seat 32. An absorbent cotton 33 is arranged inside the sliding cavity 321 on one side of the sink. A push seat 34 is arranged on one side of the absorbent cotton 33. A pull rod 35 passing through the lifting seat 32 is connected between the push seats 34. A communication pipe 36 is communicated with the injection cylinder 2 at a corresponding position on the lifting seat 32. A reversing valve 37 is installed on the communication pipe 36 for switching the communication between the communication pipe 36 and the pressure application pipe 38 and the suction pipe 310. The reversing valve 37 is connected with the pressure application pipe 38 and the suction pipe 310. The other end of the pressure application pipe 38 is connected with an air pump 39. The other end of the suction pipe 310 is connected with a negative pressure pump 311. A pull plate 312 is arranged below the injection cylinder 2. Sliding seats 313 are fixed at both ends of the pull plate 312 to limit and support the pull plate 312. The pull plate 312 and the sliding seats 313 pass through the rear plate 11;

[0028] An opening groove for the communication pipe 36 to pass through is arranged at the upper end of the housing 12. There are two cylinders 31; The pull plate 312 is flush with the lower end of the discharge port of the injection cylinder 2. The sliding seats 313 are slidably connected with the rear plate 11. The outer diameter of the absorbent cotton 33 is slightly larger than the inner diameter of the injection cylinder 2. The push seat 34 is slidably connected with the sliding cavity 321; The pull rod 35 is slidably connected with the lifting seat 32. A sealing ring is arranged inside the lifting seat 32 near the part where the pull rod 35 is pulled out. The sink of the lifting seat 32 is in interference connection with the injection cylinder 2; Pull the pull rod 35 to drive the push seat 34 to move the absorbent cotton 33 to the upper side of the injection cylinder 2. Start the air pump 39. The pressure generated by the air pump 39 enters the lifting seat 32 through the pressure application pipe 38 and the communication pipe 36. The gas pressure presses the absorbent cotton 33 downward, so that the absorbent cotton 33 moves to the bottom of the inner cavity of the injection cylinder 2. Then pull out the pull plate 312 under the limit of the sliding seats 313 to block the lower end of the injection cylinder 2. Close the air pump 39. Adjust the reversing valve 37 to connect the suction pipe 310 with the communication pipe 36. Start the negative pressure pump 311 to generate suction and enter the injection cylinder 2 to suck the absorbent cotton 33 upward. The absorbent cotton 33 adsorbs the residual materials on the inner wall of the injection cylinder 2 during the up and down movement, improving the cleaning efficiency of the residual materials.

[0029] Working principle and usage process of the utility model: After the ink cartridge is filled with pigment, by pulling the pull rod 35, the push seat 34 is pulled to move the adsorption cotton 33 to the upper side of the injection cylinder 2. The air pump 39 is started, and the pressure generated by the air pump 39 enters the lifting seat 32 through the pressure application pipe 38 and the connecting pipe 36. The gas pressure presses the adsorption cotton 33 downward, so that the adsorption cotton 33 moves to the bottom of the inner cavity of the injection cylinder 2. Then, the pull-out plate 312 is pulled out under the limitation of the sliding seat 313 to block the lower end of the injection cylinder 2. The air pump 39 is turned off, the reversing valve 37 is adjusted to connect the suction pipe 310 with the connecting pipe 36, and the negative pressure pump 311 is started to generate suction force into the injection cylinder 2 to suck the adsorption cotton 33 upward. During the up and down movement of the adsorption cotton 33, the residual material on the inner wall of the injection cylinder 2 is adsorbed. Then, the cylinder 31 contracts to drive the whole lifting seat 32 to move upward, so that the lifting seat 32 is separated from the injection cylinder 2, and the adsorption cotton 33 is taken out.

[0030] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. What is described in the above embodiments and the specification only illustrates the principle of the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the utility model claimed.
