Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of screen printing equipment, in particular to a circulating screen printing line and a screen printing machine. Background Art
[0002] Screen printing, also known as silk-screen printing, involves squeezing ink through the mesh of the image onto the substrate using a scraper, creating an image identical to the original. Screen printing is widely used due to its simple equipment, ease of operation, ease of printing and plate making, low cost, and strong adaptability.
[0003] A circulating screen printing machine disclosed in a Chinese patent (publication number: CN221315457U, created by the same inventor as the present application) utilizes a stacking mechanism to stack carrier plates into an empty material frame and transfers the frame with a preset number of stacked carrier plates to an oven mechanism. The oven mechanism then simultaneously dries a batch of target printed products, which are then transported and air-cooled by a cooling and conveying mechanism. The cooled target printed products are then separated by a separating mechanism, thereby solving the problem in related arts of ink overflow in screen printing machines, which affects the quality of printed products.
[0004] However, in the above patents and prior art, after the printing mechanism performs one printing, it is necessary to complete a complete printing process (including drying, cooling and material separation) before the next repeated printing can be performed. Multiple printings cannot be repeated at the printing station, resulting in the ink thickness of the printed product failing to meet the set requirements, affecting the quality of the printed images. At the same time, repeated processes to meet the printing thickness requirements will reduce printing efficiency and increase printing costs.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 5 The screen printing machine of the embodiment of the present application includes a machine platform 11, on which a turntable assembly 12 is provided. The turntable assembly 12 can drive multiple vacuum adsorption discharge tables 13 arranged in a circular array, circulate between the loading station 001, the printing station 002 and the unloading station 003, and sequentially connect with the transfer loading assembly 14, the printing assembly 15 and the transfer unloading assembly 16 arranged on the side of the turntable assembly 12. A positioning assembly 17 is also provided at the loading station 001, wherein,
[0033] The transfer loading component 14 is used to transfer the carrier plate 01 carrying the target printed product to the vacuum adsorption unloading table 13 located at the loading station 001. The target printed product includes one of the following: a product to be printed or a printed product that has been printed at least once.
[0034] In this embodiment, the product to be printed refers to a printed product that has not undergone a complete printing process. However, before each printing, it is necessary to ensure that the substrate is dry and dried to prevent ink overflow and cause confusion in the silk screen pattern. Therefore, the product to be printed is dried. In this embodiment, the initial loading position of the product to be printed is not at the docking position with the material transfer and loading component 14; similarly, the printed product that has completed at least one printing has also completed the corresponding drying and drying and setting process. The printed product that has completed at least one printing can be the product to be printed that has completed the previous repeated printing, or it can be the printed product that has completed multiple repeated printings.
[0035] In this embodiment, the material transfer and loading component 14 is used to receive the carrier plate 01 carrying the printed product to be currently repeated printed from the preset station, and then translate it to the vacuum adsorption discharge table 13 at the loading station 001 which is transmitted by the turntable component 12. The positioning component 17 then performs lateral and longitudinal position corrections on the carrier plate 01, and then the vacuum adsorption discharge table 13 vacuum adsorbs and fixes the corresponding carrier plate 01, thus completing the entire loading process.
[0036] The positioning component 17 is used to correct the position of the carrier plate 01 on the vacuum adsorption unloading platform 13 located at the loading station.
[0037] In this embodiment, the position correction is performed by pushing the carrier plate 01 horizontally and vertically, so that when the carrier plate 01 and the corresponding target printed product are rotated to the printing station 002 along with the vacuum adsorption discharge table 13, the target printed product is placed at the preset printing position, and when the printing component 15 prints, the preset image and text can be printed at the corresponding position of the printed product.
[0038] The printing assembly 15 is used to perform screen printing on the target printed product on the carrier plate 01 located at the printing station 002.
[0039] In this embodiment, when the turntable assembly 12 drives multiple vacuum adsorption discharge tables 13 and the corresponding carrier plates 01 and the target printed product to rotate from the loading station 001 to the printing station 002, or from the printing station 002 to the unloading station 003, the printing assembly 15 is configured to perform vertical lifting and avoiding position, so that when the vacuum adsorption discharge table 13 and the corresponding carrier plates 01 and the target printed product are located at the printing station 002, the screen frame 02 supported by the screen frame support frame 155 of the printing assembly 15 and the scraper bracket 157 connected to the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 are located above the target printed product. Then, after the screen frame 02 is driven and placed on the target printed product, the scraper bracket 157 is driven to drive the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 to move back and forth left and right to implement printing.
[0040] The transfer and unloading component 16 is used to move the carrier plate 01 carrying the target printed product that has completed the target number of prints from the vacuum adsorption unloading table 13 located at the unloading station 003.
[0041] In this embodiment, when the turntable assembly 12 drives multiple vacuum adsorption discharge tables 13 and the corresponding carriers 01 and target printed products to rotate, the carriers 01 and target printed products that rotate from the printing station 002 to the unloading station 003 will have two directions. One is to be placed on the vacuum adsorption discharge table 13 without moving, and rotate to the temporary retention station 004 and the loading station 001 as the turntable assembly 12 is driven to rotate, and the other is to be moved away by the transplanting unloading assembly 16; when the number of printing times of the target printed product does not reach the preset number (for example: the preset number of printing times is 3 times, and the current time is the second time), it will rotate to the unloading station 00 3's carrier plate 01 and target printed product will not be transferred by the transfer unloading component 16, but will follow the corresponding vacuum adsorption unloading table 13 to move to the temporary retention station 004, and then rotate to the loading station 001. In this way, the target printed product will be repeatedly printed multiple times in a single process; and when the number of printings of the target printed product reaches the preset number of times, that is, in the current process, the ink on the printed product reaches the preset thickness, at this time, the carrier plate 01 and the corresponding target printed product on the vacuum adsorption unloading table 13 at the unloading station 003 are removed by the transfer unloading component 16, that is, the corresponding transfer unloading is completed.
[0042] In the above-mentioned screen printing machine, a plurality of vacuum adsorption discharge tables 13 arranged in a circular array driven by a turntable assembly 12 are used to circulate between the loading station 001, the printing station 002 and the unloading station 003, and are docked with the transfer loading assembly 14, the printing assembly 15 and the transfer unloading assembly 16 arranged on the side of the turntable assembly 12 in turn, and the position of the carrier plate 01 on the vacuum adsorption discharge table 13 at the loading station 001 is corrected by the positioning assembly 17. After the printing assembly 15 completes printing of the target printed product once, the carrier plate and the target printed product that are rotated from the printing station 002 to the unloading station are transferred back to the loading station through the turntable assembly 12, and then rotated to the printing station, so as to realize multiple repeated printing at the printing station, so that the ink of the target printed product printed in a single time reaches a preset thickness, meets the preset screen printing requirements, improves the screen printing efficiency, and solves the problems in the related art that the screen printing machine cannot perform repeated printing at the printing station, the printed products cannot meet the requirements and the printing efficiency is reduced.
[0043] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, for target printed products that need to be printed repeatedly, the vacuum adsorption discharge table 13 is driven by the turntable assembly 12 to rotate repeatedly between the loading station 001, the printing station 002, the unloading station 003 and the temporary holding station 004, thereby realizing cyclic repeated printing. For target printed products that need to be printed repeatedly, before the target number of prints is completed, when it rotates to the unloading station 003, the transplanting and unloading assembly 16 is controlled not to transplant and unload, so that it enters the next cyclic printing process.
[0044] In order to print the target printed product, refer to Figures 1 to 5 In some embodiments, the printing assembly 15 includes a lifting base 151, which is movably connected to the machine platform 11 through a telescopic guide rod 152 and is transmission-connected to a first lifting drive unit 153 provided on the machine platform 11. The lifting base 151 is connected to a screen frame support frame 155 through a pull rod 154. The screen frame support frame 155 is located directly above the printing station 002. A transverse drive unit 156 is provided on the side wall of the lifting base 151. The transverse drive unit 156 is transmission-connected to a scraper bracket 157. The scraper bracket 157 is also connected to a printing scraper 158 and an ink return blade 159.
[0045] Before the turntable assembly 12 drives the multiple vacuum adsorption discharge tables 13 to rotate, the first lifting drive unit 153 is used to drive the lifting base 151 to drive the screen frame support frame 155, the scraper bracket 157, the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 to rise to the preset position directly above the printing station 001, and when the target printed product moves to the printing station 002 with the corresponding vacuum adsorption discharge table 13, the first lifting drive unit 153 is used to drive the screen frame support frame 155 to drive the screen frame 02 to be placed on the target printed product.
[0046] In this embodiment, the first lifting drive unit 153 is composed of two synchronous shafts 1531 and an electric cylinder 1533 synchronously connected to a servo motor 1532. The output shaft of each electric cylinder 1533 is connected to the lifting base 151, and the servo motor 1532 drives the two electric cylinders 1533 to move synchronously, thereby lifting the lifting base 151 or driving the lifting base 151 to descend.
[0047] In this embodiment, when printing, it is necessary to place the screen frame 02 (with corresponding graphics) on the target printed matter, and at the same time, it is necessary to place the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 on the screen frame 02, so that when the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 are driven to print, the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 can scrape the ink in the screen frame 02, thereby printing the graphics on the target printed matter; in this embodiment, the first lifting drive unit 153 drives the lifting base 151 to drive the screen frame support frame 155, the scraper bracket 157, The printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 rise to the height just above the printing station 002, as long as the turntable assembly 12 can drive the vacuum adsorption discharge table 13 to rotate, and prevent the screen frame 02 and the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 from contacting the target printed matter, thereby preventing the target printed matter from being scratched when the turntable assembly 12 rotates; and when the target printed matter moves to the position above the printing station 002, at this time, the first lifting drive unit 153 drives the lifting base 151 to drive the screen frame 02, the scraper bracket 157, the printing scraper 159 and the ink return knife 159 to rotate. 8 and the ink return knife 159 fall back to make the screen frame 02 placed on the target printed matter, so that the corresponding graphics can be printed on the target printed matter; it should be noted that in this embodiment, the lifting base 151 is fixedly connected to the screen frame support frame 155 and the scraper bracket 157, and the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 are fixedly connected to the scraper bracket 157. Therefore, the positional relationship between the screen frame 02 and the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 is also fixed, that is, no matter what height the screen frame 02 is placed at, the distance between the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 is fixed. The height of the screen frame 02 is fixed, so when the first lifting drive unit 153 drives the lifting base 151 to move vertically to the target printed product, the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 are also at a position height that meets the printing requirements in the vertical direction; in this embodiment, the height of the screen frame 02, the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 in the vertical direction is determined as the first lifting drive unit 153 drives the lifting base 151 to move vertically, and the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 will not move vertically relative to the scraper space 157.
[0048] The transverse driving unit 156 is used to drive the printing scraper 158 and the ink return blade 159 to move along the screen frame 02 after the screen frame 02 is placed on the target printed product, so as to screen print the target printed product.
[0049] In this embodiment, the scraper bracket 157 is driven by the transverse driving unit 156 to drive the printing scraper 158 and the ink return knife 159 to slide left and right along the length direction of the screen frame 02, thereby printing the image and text on the screen frame 02 onto the target printed product.
[0050] In some optional embodiments, the transverse drive unit 156 includes but is not limited to a synchronous belt drive module. In this embodiment, the transverse drive unit 156 is composed of a drive motor 1561, a synchronous transmission belt 1562, a linear slide 1563 and a slide 1564.

[0055] The rotary drive motor drives the turntable 121 through the turntable shaft 122, driving multiple vacuum adsorption discharge tables 13 to rotate cyclically. The vacuum pump cooperates with the vacuum unit 123 to enable each vacuum adsorption discharge table 13 to adsorb the corresponding carrier 01.
[0056] In this embodiment, the arc of the distance between the loading station 001, the printing station 002, the unloading station 003 and the temporary station 004 is 90 degrees, and the rotary drive motor drives the turntable 121 to rotate intermittently, and each time it rotates, the vacuum adsorption discharge table 13 between the two adjacent stations rotates from one station to another, that is, rotates 90 degrees, and the cyclic rotation of multiple vacuum adsorption discharge tables 13 is carried out in this way; in this embodiment, the pipeline of the vacuum unit 123 passes through
[0057] In order to realize the positioning of the carrier plate 01 so that the printing assembly 15 can accurately print the target printed product, refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5The positioning assembly 17 includes a support plate 171, a third lifting drive unit 172, a movable calibration device 173 and a fixed calibration device 174. The third lifting drive unit 172 is fixed to the machine platform 11 and is in transmission connection with the support plate 171. The support plate 171 is located below the turntable 121 in the setting position. The support plate 171 is provided with three movable calibration devices 173 and three fixed calibration devices 174 that pass through the turntable 121 and extend out. The three movable calibration devices 173 are located near the three vertex corners of the support plate 171 in the setting position. The three movable calibration devices 173 are located near the three vertex corners of the support plate 171 in the setting position. Two of the positioning devices 173 are also configured to be driven by the synchronous belt module 175 to move along the width direction of the pallet 171, and another movable positioning device 173 is configured to be driven by the corresponding synchronous belt module 175 to move along the length direction of the pallet 171.

The direction of the loading and shifting assembly 17 is parallel to the fourth side 06. When the loading and shifting assembly 17 loads the carrier plate 01 to the position When on the vacuum adsorption discharge table 13 at the loading station 001, the two movable positioning devices 173 located on the first side 03 push the carrier plate 01 toward the two fixed positioning devices 174 located on the outside of the third side 05, and then perform longitudinal calibration.

Example 2
[0060] See also Figures 6 to 10 The embodiment of the present application further provides a circulating screen printing line, comprising the screen printing machine 100 in embodiment 1, and further comprising a loading mechanism 200, a stacking conveying mechanism 300, an oven mechanism 400, a cooling conveying mechanism 500, and a material distribution conveying mechanism 600 arranged in sequence. The loading and unloading component 14 and the unloading and unloading component 16 of the screen printing machine 100 are respectively connected to the material distribution conveying mechanism 600 and the loading mechanism 200. A material frame loading and unloading mechanism 700 is further provided between the stacking conveying mechanism 300 and the material distribution conveying mechanism 600.
[0061] The loading mechanism 200 is used to transport the carrier plate 01 carrying the target printed products piece by piece to the empty material frame located on the stacking conveying mechanism 300, wherein the carrier plate 01 removed from the unloading workstation by the transfer unloading component 16 carries the printed products that have completed at least one printing.
[0062] In this embodiment, during the initial loading, the carrier plate 01 is loaded at the loading mechanism 200 (this corresponds to the target printed products that have not yet been dried, including the printed products that have not been printed and the printed products that have been transferred out by the transfer unloading component 16 and have completed a single process printing). That is, the same batch of printed products to be printed must be loaded piece by piece, and then transported to the stacking conveying mechanism 300 through the loading mechanism 200 for stacking of the carrier plates 01; at the same time, the carrier plates 01 and the target printed products that have been transferred and unloaded from the screen printing machine 100 need to flow to the drying oven mechanism 400. At this time, the loading mechanism 200 serves as an intermediate conveying bridge to directly transport the completed printed products to the drying oven mechanism 400. When the carrier plate 01 of the printed product is transported to the stacking conveying mechanism 300, it can be understood that, under the requirement of single repeated printing, in order to meet the total printing thickness of the printed product, the same batch of printed products will be printed multiple times (that is, cyclically dried, cooled, and divided). Therefore, the loading mechanism 200 will also transport the carrier plates 01 of the same batch from the screen printing machine 100 to the stacking conveying mechanism 300 multiple times. In this embodiment, the screen printing machine 100 and the stacking conveying mechanism 300 are connected through the loading mechanism 200, forming a circulating screen printing line that is connected in the first place and meets the requirements of cyclic drying and printing.
[0063] The palletizing conveying mechanism 300 is used to stack the carrier plates 01 in an empty material frame and to transfer the first material frame with a preset number of palletized carrier plates 01 to the oven mechanism 400 .
[0064] In this embodiment, the stacking conveying mechanism 300 first receives the empty material frame conveyed by the material frame transfer mechanism 700. At this time, the cavity of the empty material frame is facing the loading mechanism 200, and initially, the height of the material trough at the bottom of the empty material frame is not higher than the height of the conveying carrier 01 at the top of the loading mechanism 200. In this way, the carrier 01 conveyed by the loading mechanism 200 can be smoothly fed into the corresponding material trough. After completing the stacking of a carrier 01, the stacking conveying mechanism 300 will drive the material frame to descend vertically by the height of a trough. degree to receive the next conveyed carrier plate 01; when the stacking conveying mechanism 300 drives the material frame to descend vertically, so that a preset number of carrier plates 01 are stacked in the material frame, the stacking conveying mechanism 300 will drive the material frame to drive the preset number of carrier plates 01 to the bottom, and then horizontally transfer the corresponding material frame (corresponding to the first material frame) to the docking point with the drying oven mechanism 400, and then transfer it to the drying oven mechanism 400 for drying. After that, the material frame transfer mechanism 700 will transfer a new empty material frame to the stacking conveying mechanism 300.
[0065] The oven mechanism 400 is used to transfer the first material frame to the cooling and conveying mechanism 500 , and to dry the target printed product on the corresponding carrier plate 01 during the transfer process.
[0066] In this embodiment, the oven mechanism 400 has both steering, conveying and drying functions, that is, the first material frame conveyed by the stacking conveying mechanism 300 is reversed by the first reversing component 41 of the oven mechanism 400 and then transferred to the oven mechanism 400, while the second material frame that has completed drying is reversed by the first reversing component 41 provided on the other side of the oven mechanism 400 and then conveyed to the cooling conveying mechanism 500; at the same time, the ovens 42 corresponding to the oven mechanism 400 are arranged along the conveying direction, and each oven 42 is provided with a corresponding first chain conveyor 43, so that the target printed matter to be dried is dried in the process of conveying the first material frame carrying the target printed matter to be dried through all the ovens 42, and at the same time, when the first material frame is output from the oven mechanism 400, the second material frame that has completed drying is reversed by the first reversing component 41 provided on the other side of the oven mechanism 400 and then conveyed to the cooling conveying mechanism 500.
[0067] The cooling conveying mechanism 500 is used to convey the second material frame carrying the dried target printed product to the material separation conveying mechanism 600 , and to cool the dried target printed product during the conveying process.
[0068] In this embodiment, the cooling conveying mechanism 500 takes into account both the transmission and cooling functions, that is, in the process of conveying the second material frame carrying the dried target printed product to the material separation and conveying mechanism 600, the target printed product is cooled based on the transmission time slot to avoid the ink adhesion caused by directly sending the newly dried target printed product to the screen printing machine 100 for printing, which will affect the quality of the printed images and texts. In this embodiment, the deployment and design of the cooling conveying mechanism 500 and the transmission speed are such that when the carrier plate 01 is conveyed to the material separation and conveying mechanism 600, the target printed product has been cooled to the set temperature, which does not affect the re-printing of the target printed product.
[0069] The material distribution and conveying mechanism 600 is used to push out the carrier plates 01 located in the second material frame one by one, and convey the pushed out carrier plates 01 together with the target printed products that have completed the drying at the same time to the docking point with the transfer and loading component 14, and after all the carrier plates 01 are pushed out, convey the corresponding empty material frame to the material frame transfer mechanism 700, so that the empty material frame can be transferred to the stacking conveying mechanism 300 through the material frame transfer mechanism 700.
[0070] In this embodiment, the function of the material distribution and conveying mechanism 600 is opposite to that of the stacking and conveying mechanism 300, that is, the material distribution and conveying mechanism 600 first receives the second material frame conveyed by the cooling conveying mechanism 500. At this time, the cavity of the second material frame is facing the material distribution and conveying mechanism 600, and initially, the height of the material trough at the top of the second material frame is higher than the height of the conveying carrier 01 at the top of the material distribution and conveying mechanism 600. In this way, the carrier 01 in the second material frame can be smoothly pushed out of the material distribution and conveying mechanism 600. After a carrier 01 is pushed out of the second material frame, the material distribution and conveying mechanism 600 will drive the material frame to rise vertically by the height of a material trough, and then make the next carrier 01 flush with the height of the conveying carrier 01 at the top of the material distribution and conveying mechanism 600; when the material distribution and conveying mechanism 600 drives the second material frame to rise vertically, after the carrier 01 in the second material frame is completely pushed out, the material distribution and conveying mechanism 600 will drive the corresponding empty material frame to rise to the top, and then horizontally transmit the corresponding The empty material frame is docked with the material frame transfer mechanism 700, and then the material frame transfer mechanism 700 transfers the empty material frame to the stacking conveying mechanism 300; the material distribution conveying mechanism 600 also transports the carrier plate 01 carrying the target printed product that has completed the current drying and is to be printed to the docking position with the screen printing machine 100, so that the screen printing machine 100 can repeatedly screen print the target printed product located on the corresponding carrier plate 01, and / or unload the carrier plate 01 carrying the target printed product that has completed printing and drying; in this embodiment, when the number of printing times of the target printed product on the corresponding carrier plate 01 (the number of times on the circulating screen printing line) reaches a preset number, at this time, the corresponding carrier plate 01 is unloaded together with the target printed product at the material distribution conveying mechanism 600; and when the number of printing times of the target printed product on the corresponding carrier plate 01 does not reach the preset number, the material distribution conveying mechanism 600 will transport the corresponding carrier plate 01 to the screen printing machine 100 for corresponding repeated screen printing.
[0071] In the above-mentioned circulating screen printing line, a stacking conveying mechanism 300 is used to stack the carrier plates 01 into an empty material frame and to transfer the material frame with a preset number of stacked carrier plates 01 to the drying oven mechanism 400. The target printed products of the same batch are synchronously dried by the drying oven mechanism 400, and then transported and air-cooled by the cooling conveying mechanism 500. The cooled target printed products are separated by the material separation conveying mechanism 600, so that after the target printed products are conveyed to the screen printing machine 100 by the material separation conveying mechanism 600, they are repeatedly printed again, thereby realizing screen printing of images and texts of a preset thickness, with high quality of printed products and little ink overflow, thereby improving printing efficiency and reducing printing costs.
[0072] In order to realize the conveyance of the carrier plate 01 carrying the target printed matter to the stacking conveying mechanism 300, refer to Figures 6 to 8In some embodiments, the loading mechanism 200 includes a first frame 21, on which two first conveyors 22 are sequentially arranged along the conveying direction, and a first reversing conveyor 23 is further arranged between the two first conveyors 22, wherein,
[0073] One of the two first conveyors 22 receives the carrier plate 01 carrying the corresponding target printed product and transfers the corresponding carrier plate 01 to the first reversing conveyor 23. The other first conveyor 22 is used to receive the carrier plate 01 output by the first reversing conveyor 23 and transport the carrier plates 01 piece by piece to the empty material frame located on the stacking conveying mechanism 300.
[0074] In this embodiment, the carrier plate 01 carrying the unprinted product to be printed can be loaded onto another first conveyor 22, but it is necessary to ensure that the orientation of the product to be printed is in the preset direction when loading, so that the graphics can be printed in the correct direction when the screen printing machine 100 prints; the carrier plate 01 unloaded from the screen printing machine 100 is first conveyed by one of the two first conveyors 22 (the one close to the screen printing machine 100), and then reversed by the first reversing conveyor 23 so that the orientation of the target printed product is reversed to the preset direction, and then transferred to the other first conveyor 22 (close to the stacking conveying mechanism 300) for conveyance.
[0075] In this embodiment, the first conveyor 22 includes but is not limited to a belt conveyor and a chain conveyor.
[0076] The first reversing conveyor 23 includes a second conveyor 24 and a rotation drive unit 25 that is transmission-connected to the second conveyor 24. The rotation drive unit 25 is fixed on the first frame 21. The rotation drive unit 25 is used to drive the second conveyor 24 to carry the carrier plate transported by one of the two first conveyors 22 to perform reversing rotation, and after the reversing rotation, the corresponding carrier plate is transferred to the other first conveyor 22.
[0077] In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the orientation of the target printed product removed from the screen printing machine 100 matches the set direction when it is transferred to the screen printing machine 100 for repeated printing next time, it is necessary to reverse the direction before stacking the corresponding carrier plate 01. By changing the orientation of the carrier plate 01, the printed image and text of the target printed product are oriented in the preset direction, and confusion of the image and text will not be caused during the second printing. It can be understood that in this embodiment, the first reversing conveyor 23 and the two first conveyors 22 are set horizontally. When the first reversing conveyor 23 is reversed, there is no need to lift the second conveyor 24 before reversing.
[0078] In this embodiment, the second conveyor 24 includes but is not limited to a belt conveyor and a chain conveyor, and the rotation drive unit 25 includes but is not limited to a rotation reducer.

[0080] The first pushing assembly 31 is arranged on the first conveyor 22 near the output end of the loading mechanism 200, and includes a first slide 311 and a first push rod 312. The first slide 311 is transmission-connected to the first push rod 312 and is used to drive the first push rod 312 to move toward the lifting and stacking assembly 32, so that the first push rod 312 pushes the carrier plate conveyed to the empty material frame into place.
[0081] In this embodiment, the loading mechanism 200 transports the carrier plate 01 to the corresponding material frame. Because the carrier plate 01 is relatively light or there is a certain resistance on the side of the material frame, when the material frame is output from the loading mechanism 200, the carrier plate 01 cannot be in place, and is pushed up by the first pushing component 31, thereby aligning one end of the carrier plate 01.
[0082] The lifting and stacking assembly 32 is arranged at the docking position with the output end of the feeding mechanism 200, and includes a vertically arranged first screw transmission pair 321. The transmission screws of the two first screw transmission pairs 321 arranged opposite each other and spaced apart are connected by a first synchronous chain 322. The transmission screw of one of the two first screw transmission pairs 321 is also connected to the first drive unit 323. The sliding nut of the first screw transmission pair 321 is also connected to the stacking carrier 324. The stacking carrier 324 is provided with a first material frame conveyor 325, wherein,
[0083] The first drive unit 323 drives the two first screw transmission pairs 321 to drive the stacking carriers 324 and the first material frame conveyor 325 to rise and fall according to a preset step, so that the corresponding first conveyor 22 conveys the carriers piece by piece to the empty material frame on the first material frame conveyor 325.

The fourth lifting drive unit 413 is fixed to the second frame 411 and is in transmission connection with the roller conveyor 412 movably embedded in the second chain conveyor 414. The fourth lifting drive unit 413 drives the roller conveyor 412 to move vertically so that the roller conveyor 412 is correspondingly docked with the third conveyor 33, the second chain conveyor 414 and the fourth conveyor 51, so that the first material frame output from the stacking conveying mechanism 300 is transported to the corresponding first chain conveyor 43, and the second material frame output from the corresponding oven 42 is transported to the fourth conveyor 51.
