Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ink cooling, in particular to an ink circulation tank device with a cooling function. Background Art
[0002] Ink is a fluid substance used for printing, mainly composed of pigments, binders, additives and auxiliary agents. It is used to form text and patterns on materials such as paper, plastic, and metal. The ink circulation tank is an important component of printing equipment, which is used to store and recycle ink. During the printing process, the ink will generate heat due to circulation, causing the ink temperature to rise. High temperature will reduce the viscosity of the ink, affecting the printing effect and may even cause the ink to deteriorate. The cooling function can effectively control the temperature of the ink, maintain its optimal fluidity and printing performance, and ensure the stability and consistency of printing quality.
[0003] To this end, utility model patent publication number CN210759783U discloses an ink cooling device for a printing press, comprising a tank body, a cover plate B, and a water pump. The tank body is a cylindrical barrel structure, and ink is stored within the tank body. A cover plate A is fastened to the top of the tank body, and a cover plate B is fastened to the top of the housing. The water pump and water pipe allow water to circulate between the water pipe and the water storage barrel, drying the ink within the tank body. The spiral structure of the water pipe enhances the cooling rate of the ink within the tank body. The housing body is also filled with water, which cools the water flowing through the water storage barrel. The serrated outer wall of the water storage barrel increases the contact area between the water storage barrel and the water within the housing body, accelerating the cooling of the water within the water storage barrel. Compared to existing technologies, this device can simultaneously cool the water while using water cooling, resulting in a better cooling effect.
[0004] However, this patent uses the moisture in the box to cool the water in the water storage barrel, and then uses the moisture in the water storage barrel to cool the ink. Since there are many machines in the factory, the temperature is usually high. Especially in summer or when used for a long time, the water in the box needs to be replaced in time to avoid affecting the cooling, which is more troublesome. Utility Model Content

[0023] like Figure 2 and Figure 3The cooling device 2 shown includes a heat dissipation pipe 21 and a cooling pipe 22. The heat dissipation pipe 21 is curved and fixedly installed in the heat dissipation box 16. The cooling pipe 22 is spiral and fixedly installed in the tank body 13. A connecting pipe 23 is provided between the heat dissipation pipe 21 and the cooling pipe 22. The heat dissipation pipe 21 and the cooling pipe 22 are communicated with the cooling pipe 22 through the connecting pipe 23. A semiconductor refrigeration plate 24 is installed on the surface of the heat dissipation pipe 21. The cooling end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate 24 is fixedly connected to the heat dissipation pipe 21. The heating end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate 24 is fixedly connected to the support frame 25. A fan 26 is fixedly installed in the support frame 25.
