Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat transfer equipment technology, and in particular to a heat transfer equipment with a correction function. Background Technology

[0002] During the entire process of transferring ink onto a pen barrel, the transfer film often becomes misaligned due to insufficient positioning accuracy and vibrations generated during production. This misalignment can lead to defects such as offset and exposed ink during the transfer process, significantly affecting product quality. Traditionally, misalignment is addressed manually by adjusting the equipment, which requires a high level of skill. Alternatively, a correction device can be used to adjust the transfer film, but this method is complex and costly.

[0003] In addition, existing transfer printing equipment still uses manual feeding for the pen barrels. The hopper of the transfer printing machine is small and can only hold a limited number of pen barrels, requiring frequent refilling, which results in a significant waste of time.

[0004] This application is filed to address the aforementioned deficiencies. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a heat transfer printing device with a correction function, which can adjust the position of the transfer module and solve the product quality problem caused by the misalignment of the transfer film.

[0006] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a heat transfer printing device with a correction function, including a transfer machine. The transfer machine includes a transfer module and a correction mechanism. The correction mechanism includes a drive module and a displacement execution module. The displacement execution module is connected to the transfer module. The drive module drives the displacement execution module. When the transfer film is misaligned, the drive module drives the displacement execution module to move the transfer module until its relative position with the transfer film meets the requirements, thus completing the correction.

[0007] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the heat transfer equipment with correction function further includes an automatic feeding device. The automatic feeding device includes a feeding line, a feeding mechanism, and a feeding transfer mechanism. The feeding mechanism transfers the material to the feeding line, and the feeding line is used to transport the material to the position of the transfer machine. The feeding transfer mechanism is used to transfer the material on the feeding line to the transfer machine. The feeding transfer mechanism can be selected as a gripper or a robotic arm that moves along a fixed route.

[0008] Optionally, the feeding mechanism may be a vibratory feeder, preferably a pusher-type feeder.

[0009] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the drive module includes a servo motor, and the displacement execution module includes a lead screw module, thereby achieving a more precise correction effect through the servo motor.

[0010] Alternatively, the displacement execution module can also use roller linear guides, gear and rack drives, linkage structures, or other methods to achieve displacement.

[0011] Optionally, the transfer machine further includes a deviation sensor, which is used to detect the deviation of the transfer film. The deviation sensor is electrically connected to the drive module, and the deviation sensor may be an image sensor, a transfer film position sensor, etc.

[0012] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the transfer machine further includes a manual control module, which is electrically connected to the drive module. The manual control module is a human-computer interaction module such as a button, keyboard, and touch screen.

[0013] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the transfer module is installed on the crossbeam, and the displacement execution module is connected to the crossbeam to enhance the stability of the structure.

[0014] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the crossbeam is connected to a guide structure, such as a guide rail or guide rod, to make its movement more stable.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are that by setting a correction mechanism to correct the deviation of the transfer module, the correction mechanism has a simple structure and the correction process is accurate and fast, avoiding the problem of transfer offset and exposure of the substrate caused by the misalignment of the transfer film, thus ensuring product quality. Furthermore, by setting an automatic feeding device, the problems of low efficiency and high labor cost of manual feeding are solved. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The following description is only intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement it. The embodiments in the following description are merely examples, and those skilled in the art will conceive of other obvious modifications. The basic principles of the present invention defined in the following description can be applied to other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0022] Example 1:

[0023] A heat transfer device with correction function, such as Figure 1 It includes a transfer machine 1 and an automatic feeding device 2.

[0024] The transfer machine 1 includes a transfer module 12 and a correction mechanism. The transfer module 12 is the module in the transfer machine that performs heat transfer, and the correction mechanism is used to drive the transfer module 12 to perform displacement correction.

[0025] The correction mechanism includes a drive module 13 and a displacement execution module 14. In this embodiment, the drive module 13 uses a servo motor to achieve a more precise correction effect. The displacement execution module 14 includes a lead screw module. The servo motor and the lead screw module form a linear lead screw module. The servo motor drives the lead screw to move the slide table. The transfer module 12 is mounted on the crossbeam 11. The displacement execution module 14 is connected to the crossbeam 11 to enhance the stability of the structure. When the transfer film is misaligned, the servo motor drives the displacement execution module 14 to make the crossbeam 11 move smoothly under the guidance of the guide structure 16, which drives the transfer module 12 to move back and forth. The guide structure 16 can be a guide rail, guide rod, etc. The correction is completed when the relative position of the transfer module 12 and the transfer film meets the requirements.

[0026] In other embodiments, the displacement execution module 14 may also use roller linear guides, gear rack drives, or other methods to achieve displacement.

[0027] Traditional transfer printing machine correction solutions typically involve correcting the transfer film, which is complex and lacks precision. In this solution, a correction mechanism is used to correct the transfer module. This mechanism is simple in structure, and the correction process is precise and fast, avoiding the problem of transfer offset and exposure caused by transfer film misalignment, thus ensuring product quality.

[0028] The automatic feeding device 2 includes a feeding line 23, a feeding mechanism 21, and a feeding transfer mechanism 22. The feeding mechanism 21 can be a vibratory feeder, preferably a pusher plate feeder, which has a large hopper volume and can accommodate more pen barrels without frequent feeding. The pen barrels are moved up and down by the alternating movement of the multi-layer stepped pusher plate, and transported to the top and into the feeding line 23. The feeding line 23 is a fixed track conveyor belt, which is used to transport materials to the position of the transfer machine 1. The feeding transfer mechanism 22 is used to transfer the materials on the feeding line 23 to the feeding conveyor line 15 in the transfer machine 1 to realize automatic feeding. The feeding transfer mechanism 22 can be a gripper or a robot that moves along a fixed route. In this embodiment, a gripper is used.

[0029] Optionally, a defective material detection device, such as an image detection sensor, can be installed at the feeding line 23. For defective materials, the feeding transfer mechanism 22 can directly transfer them to the NG material box to further ensure product quality.

[0030] The push-plate type feeder is easy to operate, and one feeding can meet the equipment's feeding needs for 1.5 hours, which greatly reduces labor hours. It also provides stable feeding, which can minimize scratches caused by friction between materials and reduce the risk of scratches on the pen barrel. The cost reduction and efficiency improvement effects are significant.

[0031] The transfer machine 1 also includes a manual control module, which is electrically connected to the drive module 13. The manual control module is a human-computer interaction module with buttons, knobs, keyboards, touch screens, etc. When a misalignment occurs, the manual person confirms the offset distance and controls the correction mechanism to correct the misalignment.

[0032] Example 2:

[0033] Based on Embodiment 1, the transfer machine 1 also includes a correction sensor. The correction sensor is used to detect the misalignment of the transfer film. The correction sensor is electrically connected to the drive module 13. The correction sensor can be an image sensor, a transfer film position sensor, etc. By obtaining the position offset parameters of the transfer film, the displacement parameters that the transfer module 12 needs to adjust are obtained, and then the correction mechanism is controlled to achieve automatic correction.

[0034] Example 3:

[0035] Based on embodiment 1 or 2, in this embodiment, the correction mechanism can be set up simultaneously or separately and connected to the feeding conveyor line 15. When the transfer film is misaligned, the position of the feeding conveyor line 15 is adjusted synchronously to make the relative position between the pen barrel and the transfer film accurate.

[0036] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are merely examples and do not limit the present invention. The purpose of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The functional and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and explained in the embodiments. Without departing from the stated principles, the implementation of the present invention may have any variations and modifications.
