[0001] This utility model relates to the field of digital printing machine technology, and in particular to a multi-station digital printing machine. Background Technology
[0002] Digital printing technology is favored for its high efficiency, flexibility and personalization. Traditional digital printing machines usually adopt a single-station design, that is, one digital printing machine corresponds to one printed object for printing operations. When faced with a large number of diverse printing needs, the production efficiency is low. In addition, in the process of double-sided printing, traditional digital printing machines require manual operation of flipping the printed object to be printed, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Detailed Implementation
[0016] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0017] Please refer to Figures 1-4 A multi-station digital printing machine includes a frame 1. Two linear modules 2 are arranged parallel to each other on the top of the frame 1. Each linear module 2 drives a movable seat to move in a linear direction. A rotating plate 3 is rotatably mounted on the movable seat of each linear module 2. Each rotating plate 3 is equipped with a locking assembly 4, and a support plate 10 is engaged between the two locking assemblies 4. A second linear module 5 is mounted perpendicular to the linear modules 2 at the top center of the frame 1. A printing machine body 6 is mounted on the movable seat of the second linear module 5. Linear module 2 5 is used to move the printing machine body 6 in a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the object to be printed. A cylinder 7 is installed on the top right side of the frame 1. The telescopic rod of the cylinder 7 faces downward and is connected to a pneumatic suction cup 8. The pneumatic suction cup 8 is attached to a support plate 2 11. The bearing surfaces of the support plate 1 10 and the support plate 2 11 are arranged opposite to each other and each has two positioning slots 12. Linear module 1 2 and linear module 2 5 can be made of a synchronous belt linear moving device, a lead screw and nut device, a linear motor, etc. In this embodiment, a lead screw and nut device is used.
[0018] The engaging assembly 4 includes an electric push rod 401 and a locking rod 402. Two sets of locking rods 402 are symmetrically slidably connected on the rotating plate 3. Two electric push rods 401 are symmetrically installed on the rotating plate 3. The telescopic rods of the two electric push rods 401 are respectively connected to the two sets of locking rods 402 through a section of arc plate. The front and rear sides of the bearing plate 10 and the bearing plate 2 have locking grooves 13 that match the locking rods 402. In this embodiment, in order to enhance the engagement stability, each set of locking rods 402 is set with two rods. The two locking rods 402 in the same set are set parallel to the bearing surface of the bearing plate 10. When the electric push rod 401 extends or retracts, it can drive the corresponding locking rod 402 to slide on the rotating plate 3, thereby realizing engagement or disengagement with the bearing plate 10 or the bearing plate 2 11.
[0019] A motor 9 is mounted on the movable seat of linear module 2, and the output shaft of motor 9 is connected to the rotating plate 3 for transmission.
[0020] In this embodiment, to enhance adsorption stability, two cylinders 7 and two pneumatic suction cups 8 are provided at intervals along the length of the support plate 11.
[0021] Working principle: Initially, the two sets of clamping rods 402 on the upper side are positioned away from the support plate 10 to avoid obstructing the space above the support plate 10. The two sets of clamping rods 402 on the lower side are engaged in the slots 13 of the support plate 10. The support plate 11 is firmly adsorbed by the pneumatic suction cup 8. In use, two objects to be printed are placed in the two positioning slots 12 of the support plate 10 respectively. The moving seat of the linear module 2 drives the rotating plate 3 and the support plate 10 to move to the right. When the objects to be printed on the support plate 10 pass the printing machine body 6, the printing machine body 6 is driven by the moving seat of the linear module 2 5 along the length of the support plate 10. The device moves back and forth in the direction of printing, enabling simultaneous printing on one printing surface of two objects. After printing, the moving seat of the linear module 12 continues to move the bearing plate 10 to the right until it is directly below the bearing plate 21. At this point, the telescopic rods of the two cylinders 7 extend downwards, causing the pneumatic suction cup 8 and the bearing plate 21 to move downwards until the top surfaces of the two objects are in contact with the two positioning slots 12 of the bearing plate 21. Subsequently, the electric push rod 401 on the upper side drives the corresponding connected locking rod 402 to move and engage in the locking slot 13 of the bearing plate 21. The telescopic rods of the cylinders 7 then move back and forth. The pneumatic suction cup 8 is positioned so that it does not obstruct the rotation of the first bearing plate 10 and the second bearing plate 11. Then, the rotating plate 3 is driven to rotate by the motor 9, causing the first bearing plate 10, the second bearing plate 11, and the two objects to be printed to rotate 180 degrees together. At this time, the positions of the first bearing plate 10 and the second bearing plate 11 are reversed, and the two objects to be printed are flipped. Next, the electric push rod 401, which is currently on the upper side, drives its corresponding connected locking rod 402 to move out of the locking groove 13 of the first bearing plate 10. At this time, the movement of the first bearing plate 10 is unrestricted. The extension rod of the cylinder 7 extends downward, causing the pneumatic suction cup 8 to move downward and adsorb the first bearing plate 10. Then, the cylinder 7 is reset by retracting its telescopic rod, moving the bearing plate 10 away from the printed object, thus exposing the other printing surface of the two objects. Subsequently, the linear module 2 drives the bearing plate 11 to move to the left, and the linear module 5 drives the printing machine body 6 to reciprocate along the length of the bearing plate 11, so as to perform synchronous printing on the other printing surface of the two objects. After printing is completed, the linear module 2 drives the bearing plate 11 back to the initial position of the bearing plate 10, removes the printed product, and places the next batch of objects to be printed into the positioning groove 12 of the bearing plate 10. The above steps are repeated for the next round of printing.

Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
