The top of the front side of the main board 111 is fixedly connected with a protective frame 112. The bottom of the protective frame 112 is hollowed out. The left and right sides of the bottom of the main board 111 are respectively fixedly connected The bottom chute plate 118 is connected, the front sides of the two bottom chute plates 118 are fixedly connected to the spring plate connecting rod 119, the rear sides of the two spring plate connecting rods 119 are fixedly connected to the spring connecting plate 1110, the inner sides of the two spring connecting plates 1110 are fixedly connected to a plurality of springs 1111, the inner walls of the two bottom chute plates 118 are slidably connected to the sliders 1113, the bottoms of the two sliders 1113 are fixedly connected to the push rods 1112, the inner sides of the two push rods 1112 are fixedly connected to the clamping plates 1114, the outer sides of the two clamping plates 1114 are respectively fixedly connected to the ends of the two groups of springs 1111 away from the spring connecting plate 1110, and the control board 12 includes a control board body 12 1. The left and right sides of the front side of the control panel body 121 are respectively fixedly connected with the control panel slide rod 122, and the outer walls of the two control panel slide rods 122 are respectively slidably connected to the inner walls of the two slide groove plates 114. The top of the rear side of the control panel body 121 is fixed to the front side of the connecting block 117. The front bottom of the control panel body 121 is fixedly connected with the nozzle connecting block 123. The outer wall of the nozzle connecting block 123 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 113. The front side of the nozzle connecting block 123 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the nozzle 2. The left and right sides of the nozzle 2 are respectively movably connected to the inner sides of the two clamping plates 1114. The upper and lower sides of the rear bottom of the control panel body 121 are respectively fixedly connected with the rack slide groove rod 12 4. The inner walls of the two rack slide rods 124 are slidably connected to rack rods 129, and the opposite surfaces of the two rack rods 129 are fixedly connected to push plates 1210. The rear side of the top rack slide rod 124 is fixedly connected to the motor connection frame connection block 125, and one side of the motor connection frame connection block 125 is fixedly connected to the motor connection frame 126. The inner wall of the motor connection frame 126 is fixedly connected to the motor 127. The output end of the motor 127 extends to the inner side of the two rack rods 129 and is fixedly connected to the gear 128. The outer wall of the gear 128 is respectively engaged with the inner side of the two rack rods 129. The inner sides of the two push plates 1210 are respectively movably connected to the opposite surfaces of the two push rods 1112.
[0027] When the nozzle 2 is used and needs to be protected, the operator can first start the motor 127. As the motor 127 rotates, the gear 128 connected to its output end starts to rotate. Since the gear 128 is engaged with the racks inside the two rack rods 129, the rack rods 129 will slide along their axial direction in the rack slide rod 124.
[0028] As the rack rod 129 slides, the push plates 1210 fixedly connected to the opposite side of the rack rod 129 also move accordingly. The inner sides of the two push plates 1210 are movably connected to the opposite sides of the two push rods 1112. Therefore, when the push plates 1210 move, the restrictions on the two push rods 1112 are released.
[0029] When the push rod 1112 is no longer pushed by the push plate 1210, the two sets of springs 1111 return to their original positions and drive the two clamping plates 1114 to slide to both sides to release the restriction on the nozzle 2;
[0030] After that, the hydraulic push rod 116 can be started to contract and drive the connecting block 117 and the control panel body 121 to move upward. This action will further cause the nozzle connecting block 123 and the nozzle 2 to move upward until the nozzle 2 completely exits the working area of the nozzle tray mechanism 1 and is safely hidden in the inner wall of the protective frame 112. The protective frame 112 ensures dustproof and protection of the nozzle when not in use.
[0031] Furthermore, the design of the tray body 11 fully considers stability and durability. The mainboard 111, the core of the entire tray mechanism, is tightly connected to the control board 12 via the slide plate 114, ensuring smooth and precise movement of the control board 12. The bottom slide plate 118 and its associated slider 1113, push rod 1112, and other components together form a flexible and stable clamping system, ensuring stable and precise printhead positioning during printing.
[0032] Working principle: When the nozzle 2 is used up and needs to be protected, the operator can first start the motor 127. As the motor 127 rotates, the gear 128 connected to its output end starts to rotate. Since the gear 128 is engaged with the racks on the inner sides of the two rack rods 129, the rack rod 129 will slide along its axial direction in the rack slide rod 124. As the rack rod 129 slides, the push plate 1210 fixedly connected to the opposite side of the rack rod 129 will also move accordingly. The inner sides of the two push plates 1210 are movably connected to the opposite sides of the two push rods 1112 respectively. Therefore, when the push plate 1210 moves, the limit of the two push rods 1112 is released. When the push rod 1112 is no longer subjected to the thrust of the push plate 1210, the two groups The spring 1111 resets and drives the two clamping plates 1114 to slide to the sides, releasing the restriction on the printhead 2. The hydraulic push rod 116 is then activated, causing it to retract and drive the connecting block 117 and the control board body 121 upward. This action further causes the printhead connecting block 123 and the printhead 2 to move upward until the printhead 2 completely exits the working area of the printhead tray mechanism 1 and is safely hidden in the inner wall of the protective frame 112. The protective frame 112 ensures dustproof and protection of the printhead when not in use. In addition, the design of the tray body 11 fully considers stability and durability. The main board 111, as the core of the entire tray mechanism, is tightly connected to the control board 12 via the slide plate 114, ensuring smooth and precise movement of the control board 12. The bottom slide plate 118 and its supporting slider 1113, push rod 1112 and other components together form a flexible and stable clamping system, ensuring the stability and precision of the printhead during printing.
