Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of ink packaging, and in particular to a flexible packaging ink filling device. Background Art
[0002] Offset printing is the most important printing method, accounting for about 60% of the market share in the printing industry. As one of the important consumables of offset printing, offset ink occupies a vital position in the printing industry.
[0003] Ink quality directly impacts printing quality and production efficiency. Currently, spot color inks are mostly filled in metal cans. While this filling method is relatively simple—the metal cans simply need to be placed under a filling machine, and the material is then discharged from the filling machine to fill the cans—the metal cans are considered toxic solid waste, which not only increases the solid waste disposal costs of printing companies but also may cause secondary environmental pollution. Furthermore, during the ink filling process, a protective plastic film is often applied to the ink surface, which not only reduces ink utilization but also increases solid waste disposal costs.
[0004] Therefore, compared to the aforementioned issues with filling ink in metal cans, filling ink in flexible bags can not only significantly reduce the amount of ink residue, but also protect the ink through vacuuming, and significantly reduce the solid waste disposal costs of printing companies. However, flexible bags require external support to maintain filling, and currently there is no suitable filling equipment for filling ink into flexible bags, resulting in insufficient application of flexible bag ink technology.

[0032] The following will be combined with the Figure 1-2 , a clear and complete description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention is given. The described embodiments are only possible technical implementations of the present invention, not all possible implementations. Those skilled in the art can completely combine the embodiments of the present invention to obtain other embodiments without creative work, and these embodiments are also within the scope of protection of the present invention. The inventors of this application have found that compared with the method of using metal filling cans, the use of soft packaging bags to fill ink can not only significantly reduce the amount of ink residue, but also greatly reduce the solid waste disposal costs of printing companies. To this end, this application mainly adopts the following scheme, which achieves the effect of facilitating the filling of ink through soft packaging bags, reducing the amount of ink residue, and reducing solid waste disposal costs.
[0033] The embodiment of the present application discloses a flexible packaging ink filling device. Figure 1 The filling equipment includes a filling machine, a base 1, a support frame 2 disposed on the base 1, a funnel 3 disposed on the support frame 2, and a clamping assembly 4 disposed on the support frame 2. The filling machine is located at the top and is used to store and deliver ink (the filling machine is conventional and not shown in the figure). The funnel 3 is disposed at the upper end of the support frame 2, and the feed port of the funnel 3 is aligned with the center of the filling machine. Multiple clamping assemblies 4 are disposed circumferentially on the support frame 2 with the funnel 3 as the center. Therefore, when in use, the flexible packaging bag is clamped by the clamping assembly 4, and preferably the lower end of the funnel 3 is extended into the opening of the flexible packaging bag, so that the flexible packaging bag can be filled by the filling machine.
[0034] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, the base 1 is configured as a rectangular plate structure, preferably made of rectangular steel plates to increase the stability of the device. The support frame 2 includes vertical columns and horizontal beams. In this embodiment, two columns are provided on either side of the base 1, and the beam connects the upper ends of the two columns on the same side. Both the columns and the beam are preferably hollow rectangular metal steel structures.
[0035] Funnel 3 is mounted on support frame 2, with a gradually decreasing cross-sectional area from top to bottom. A rectangular metal plate is welded to its upper end. This rectangular metal plate is removably secured to the crossbeam at the upper end of support frame 2 using bolts or screws, making it easy to remove and clean funnel 3. The rectangular metal plate also serves to enhance the stability of funnel 3. A short section of rectangular tubing can also be welded to the lower end of funnel 3 to facilitate insertion into the flexible packaging bag.
[0036] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, two clamping assemblies 4 are preferably provided for clamping the left and right sides of the soft packaging bag respectively. In other embodiments, more clamping assemblies 4 may also be provided to further improve the stability of the soft packaging bag. Furthermore, the clamping assembly 4 includes a positioning block 41 fixed on the support frame 2, a moving block 42 movably provided on the support frame 2, and a power member 43 for driving the moving block 42 to move. Among them, the fixed block is provided on the column of the support frame 2, and is preferably fixed to the side wall of the column facing the funnel 3 by welding or bolts; for ease of use, a rectangular rod is connected between the fixed block and the column, and the two soft packaging bags can be clamped between the fixed block and the positioning block 41 when in use.
[0037] The power member 43 includes a motor 431 and a connecting rod 432. The motor 431 is fixed to the column of the support frame 2 by means of bolts. The motor 431 is also fixed to the side wall of the column by bolts, and the output shaft of the motor 431 extends upward in the vertical direction. The connecting rod 432 is fixed to the output shaft of the motor 431. The movable block 42 is fixed to the end of the connecting rod 432 away from the output shaft of the motor 431. When the motor 431 is started, the output shaft of the motor 431 rotates, driving the connecting rod 432 to rotate, thereby driving the movable block 42 to rotate until it abuts the fixed block to clamp and fix the flexible packaging bag. At the same time, by rotating the movable block 42 to approach the fixed block, the space occupied is small and it is more convenient for actual production use.
[0038] In other embodiments, the power member 43 may also be a cylinder, and the telescopic shaft of the cylinder is directly fixed to the side wall of the moving block 42, so that the moving block 42 is driven to move and clamp the fixed block through the horizontal extension and contraction of the telescopic shaft of the cylinder.
[0039] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, a buffer block 5 is optionally fixedly disposed on each side of the movable block 42 and the positioning block 41 adjacent to each other. The buffer block 5 can be made of rubber. Rubber has excellent cushioning and wear resistance, ensuring that the flexible packaging bag can be clamped between the movable block 42 and the positioning block 41 without damaging the bag. Furthermore, the sidewalls of the buffer block 5 are provided with anti-slip grooves to increase the friction coefficient and prevent the bag from slipping.
[0040] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, to improve the stability of the moving block 42 during rotation, a support plate 21 is welded to the side wall of the support frame 2. The support plate 21 is fixed above the motor 431. A cylindrical guide rod 22 is welded to the upper surface of the connecting rod 432. The support plate 21 is provided with an arcuate groove 23. The guide rod 22 passes through the arcuate groove 23. When the connecting rod 432 rotates, it can drive the guide rod 22 to slide within the arcuate groove 23. Therefore, the cooperation between the arcuate groove 23 and the guide rod 22 can limit and guide the rotation of the connecting rod 432 and the moving block 42.
[0041] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, to facilitate control of motor 431, a button 6 for activating motor 431 is provided on base 1. Button 6 simultaneously controls both motors 431, thereby driving both moving blocks 42 to move together. A control box may also be provided on base 1, and the connection between button 6 and motor 431 is controlled within the control box to ensure device safety.
[0042] Reference Figure 1In this embodiment, further optionally, a positioning plate 7 can be provided on the base 1. The bottom of the positioning plate 7 is bent to form a horizontal part, so that it can be detachably fixed to the bottom plate by bolts. The upper end of the positioning plate 7 extends upward in the vertical direction. When the upper end of the soft packaging bag is fixed by the clamping component 4, the side wall of the lower end of the soft packaging bag can abut against the side wall of the positioning plate 7, thereby supporting the soft packaging bag; at the same time, when placing the soft packaging bag, the positioning plate 7 can also play an auxiliary positioning effect, thereby improving the production effect.
[0043] The working principle of the flexible packaging ink filling device of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: when filling a flexible packaging bag with ink, the flexible packaging bag is first placed on the base 1 and abutted against the side wall of the positioning plate 7. The left and right sides of the flexible packaging bag are then placed in front of the fixed blocks respectively, and the lower end of the funnel 3 is inserted into the opening at the upper end of the flexible packaging bag. Then, the button 6 is pressed to start the motor 431, and the moving block 42 moves toward the positioning block 41 and clamps the flexible packaging bag. At this point, the ink can be filled through the filling machine. After filling is completed, the button 6 is pressed again to release the flexible packaging bag, and the next filling can be carried out.
[0044] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
