Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0029] Embodiment 1

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1-8 , the present invention provides a technical solution:

[0031] An inkjet printing mechanism for golf ball processing, including a printing platform 1. The printing platform 1 includes a lifting assembly 2, a side push assembly 3, a rotary adsorption assembly 4, and a feeding assembly 5. A feeding assembly 5 for receiving materials is arranged on one side of the middle part of the printing platform 1. A lifting assembly 2 for jacking up the materials falling into the feeding assembly 5 is arranged at the bottom of the printing platform 1. The side push assembly 3 and the rotary adsorption assembly 4 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the printing platform 1. The rotary adsorption assembly 4 includes a rotary suction nozzle 46 for adsorbing the surface of the golf ball and a rotary motor 41 for driving the rotary suction nozzle 46 to rotate. The side push assembly 3 includes a side push rod 36 that moves in the left-right direction. The side push rod 36 is arranged opposite to the rotary suction nozzle 46 for pressing the golf ball against the rotary suction nozzle 46. The side push rod 36 and the rotary suction nozzle 46 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the lifting height of the lifting assembly 2;

[0032] During operation, the golf ball falls onto the printing platform 1 from the feeding assembly 5 to complete the feeding and positioning operation, and then the golf ball is lifted between the side push rod 36 and the rotating suction nozzle 46 by the lifting assembly 2. At this time, the side push rod 36 moves toward the rotating suction nozzle 46 and presses the golf ball against the rotating suction nozzle 46, and then the rotating suction nozzle 46 opens to generate negative pressure to suck the golf ball tightly, and then the side push rod 36 and the lifting assembly 2 retreat, and the rotating suction nozzle 46 completes the precise adsorption and positioning of the golf ball, and then the rotating motor 41 works to drive the rotating suction nozzle 46 to start rotating, so as to facilitate the printing action. Therefore, the utility model can complete high-precision printing through the feeding and positioning of the feeding assembly 5. The single precise material receiving action of the golf ball, the set lifting component 2 can complete the lifting action of the golf ball and rise it to a suitable printing height, the set side push component 3 can cooperate with the rotating suction nozzle 46 of the rotating adsorption component 4 to tightly adsorb the golf ball, to ensure that the golf ball will not be loosely adsorbed due to the uneven surface, and the rotating adsorption component 4 can drive the rotating suction nozzle 46 to rotate as a whole through the rotating motor 41, so that the golf ball can cooperate with the external printing equipment to perform a rotational printing action, the rotating suction nozzle 46 completes a stable adsorption and clamping action with a very small adsorption area, which is convenient for the precise printing operation of the golf ball and improves production efficiency.

[0033] The lifting assembly 2 includes a lifting cylinder 20, which is hoisted at the bottom of the printing platform 1 through a cylinder hoisting frame 21. The output end of the lifting assembly 2 is connected to a lifting rod 22, which slides upward through the panel of the printing platform 1. The top of the lifting rod 22 is equipped with a lifting slot head 23 for lifting a golf ball.

[0034] During operation, the lifting cylinder 20 drives the lifting rod 22 to vertically move up and down. The lifting slot 23 provided at the end of the lifting rod 22 is mainly concave in shape to match the curved surface of the golf ball, so as to stably lift the golf ball.

[0035] The side push assembly 3 includes a side cylinder 33, which is fixedly mounted on a guide rail slider 32. A side support rail 31 for slidingly clamping the guide rail slider 32 is horizontally mounted on the top surface of the printing platform 1. A cylinder support plate 30 is vertically fixedly mounted on one side of the side support rail 31. The telescopic end of the side cylinder 33 is fixed on the panel of the cylinder support plate 30. A rotating shaft seat 35 is mounted on one side of the guide rail slider 32 through a rotating shaft bracket 34. The side push rod 36 is rotatably mounted on the rotating shaft seat 35.

[0036] During operation, one end of the telescopic end of the side cylinder 33 abuts against the cylinder support plate 30. Therefore, when the telescopic end of the side cylinder 33 extends or retracts, it will drive the entire side cylinder 33 to slide on the side support guide 31 through the guide rail slider 32. The sliding of the guide rail slider 32 drives the side push rod 36 to slide through the rotating shaft bracket 34, thereby completing the material pushing action.

[0037] Wherein, a contact rotating groove head 37 is rotatably installed at the end of the side push rod 36. Both the contact rotating groove head 37 and the rotating suction nozzle 46 are spherical shapes that are convenient for fitting the outer contour of the golf ball. The contact rotating groove head 37 and the rotating suction nozzle 46 are made of flexible materials;

[0038] During operation, the provided contact rotating groove head 37 and rotating suction nozzle 46 being flexible and spherical mainly facilitate clamping and fitting the surface of the golf ball. The purpose of separately setting the contact rotating groove head 37 here is to cooperate with the rotating suction nozzle 46 to clamp the golf ball, preventing the end of the fixed side push rod 36 from rubbing against the surface of the golf ball and causing scratching problems.

[0039] Wherein, the rotary adsorption assembly 4 includes a rotary motor 41, a reduction gearbox 42, and an output shaft 43. The rotary motor 41 is integrally mounted on the printing platform 1 through a rotary bracket 40. The motor shaft of the rotary motor 41 outputs the output shaft 43 through the reduction gearbox 42. The output shaft 43 is rotatably installed on the rotary bracket 40. A slip ring 45 is sleeved outside the front end of the output shaft 43. The outer end of the output shaft 43 is fixed with the rotary suction nozzle 46. A ring fixing plate 44 is mounted on the panel of the rotary bracket 40. One end of the slip ring 45 is hermetically fixed on the panel of the ring fixing plate 44. The other end of the slip ring 45 is rotatably and hermetically connected to the rotary suction nozzle 46. An air passage channel identical to that of the rotary suction nozzle 46 is provided inside the slip ring 45. An external tracheal interface is provided outside the slip ring 45;

[0040] During operation, the rotary motor 41 drives the output shaft 43 to rotate through the reduction gearbox 42. The output shaft 43 drives the rotary suction nozzle 46 to rotate. The slip ring 45 provided on one side close to the rotary suction nozzle 46 remains stationary. The external air circuit communicates with the inside of the slip ring 45 through the external tracheal interface and communicates with the rotary suction nozzle 46 through the air passage channel, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the air circuit of the rotating rotary suction nozzle 46, thus overcoming the problem that it is impossible to directly externally connect a trachea outside the rotary suction nozzle 46 due to the rotation of the rotary suction nozzle 46. The trachea connected to the slip ring 45 will not have the problem of rotating following the rotary suction nozzle 46.

[0041] The loading assembly 5 includes a material receiving trough 50, a material supporting base 51 and a baffle 52. An opening is provided in the middle of the printing platform 1. The material supporting base 51 is installed at the opening. The ejection end of the lifting assembly 2 extends from the opening into the bottom of the material supporting base 51. An inclined material receiving trough 50 is fixedly installed on one side of the material supporting base 51. The opposite side of the material receiving trough 50 is surrounded by a baffle 52 for preventing the sliding material from rushing out of the material supporting base 51.

[0042] A UV curing lamp 54 is mounted on the upper side of the support base 51 through a lamp rack 53, and the UV curing lamp 54 is located at the same height as the rotating suction nozzle 46;

[0043] During operation, the golf balls are introduced from the receiving trough 50 and are precisely limited to the material support base 51. The baffle 52 is mainly used to enclose the falling golf balls to ensure that the golf balls can fall into the material support base 51, so as to facilitate the subsequent lifting component 2 to directly lift the golf balls upward from the bottom of the material support base 51. The UV curing lamp 54 is mainly used to irradiate and cure the golf balls at the height of the rotating suction nozzle 46. After the rotating suction nozzle 46 absorbs the golf balls to complete the printing operation, the UV curing lamp 54 works to cure the absorbed golf balls. The rotating suction nozzle 46 can also rotate in conjunction with the UV curing lamp 54 to ensure that the surface of the golf balls obtains a uniform and consistent curing effect.

[0045] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that:

[0046] Wherein, sliding brackets 10 are fixed on both sides of the bottom of the printing platform 1, and each of the sliding brackets 10 is equipped with a screw drive mechanism for driving the entire printing platform 1 to move and slide;

[0047] The screw drive mechanism includes a screw slider 11 fixed on the sliding bracket 10, the screw slider 11 is threadedly sleeved on a displacement screw 12, the displacement screw 12 is installed on a printing frame 14, and a screw motor 13 is provided at one end of the displacement screw 12 for driving the displacement screw 12 to rotate;

[0048] During operation, the printing platform 1 is mounted on the printing frame 14 through the screw drive mechanisms on both sides, so that when the screw motor 13 works, it drives the printing platform 1 as a whole to slide left and right on the printing frame 14, thereby cooperating with the printing transfer action to perform material picking, printing, and discharging actions.
