[0006] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to propose a mooncake surface printing device, which realizes flexible and diverse pattern printing by controlling the position and rotation of multiple printing cylinders, and significantly improves the adaptability and flexibility of the equipment.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a mooncake surface printing device, including a worktable, a conveyor belt, a driving component, and a printing mechanism.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Rather, the embodiments of the present invention include all variations, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

[0020] The mooncake surface printing device of this utility model embodiment will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the mooncake surface printing device of this utility model includes a worktable 1, a conveyor belt 2, a driving component 3, and a printing mechanism 4, wherein the conveyor belt 2 is disposed on the worktable 1. The driving component 3 is mounted on the worktable 1 and is connected to the conveyor belt 2.

[0022] It should be noted that the driving component 3 is a drive motor, which can drive the conveyor belt 2 to run when the driving component 3 is running.

[0023] The printing mechanism 4 includes a mounting frame 41, an electric telescopic rod 42, a connecting plate 43, a support rod 44, a positioning assembly 45, a rotating disk 46, multiple fixed cylinders 47, multiple lifting rods 48, multiple tension springs 49, and multiple printing cylinders 410. The mounting frame 41 is mounted on the worktable 1. The electric telescopic rod 42 is mounted on the mounting frame 41, and the output end of the electric telescopic rod 42 is slidably connected to the mounting frame 41.

[0024] It should be noted that the output end of the electric telescopic rod 42 has the same inner diameter as the fixed cylinder 47, which allows the output end of the electric telescopic rod 42 to enter the fixed cylinder 47 and push the lifting rod 48 inside the fixed cylinder 47.

[0025] A connecting plate 43 is mounted on a mounting bracket 41, and a support rod 44 is mounted on the bottom surface of the connecting plate 43. A positioning assembly 45 is mounted on the support rod 44. A rotating disk 46 is rotatably mounted on the support rod 44. Multiple fixed cylinders 47 are mounted in a circumferential array on the bottom surface of the rotating disk 46.

[0026] It should be noted that the multiple fixed cylinders 47 restrict the movement path of the lifting rod 48, so that the lifting rod 48 can only move up and down.

[0027] Multiple lifting rods 48 are slidably disposed within corresponding fixed cylinders 47, and slide through the rotating disk 46, with the top ends of the multiple lifting rods 48 extending above the rotating disk 46. Multiple tension springs 49 are sleeved on the corresponding fixed cylinders 47, with one end of the multiple tension springs 49 connected to the rotating disk 46 and the other end of the multiple tension springs 49 connected to the corresponding printing cylinder 410.

[0028] It should be noted that the multiple pull springs 49 pull the printing cylinder 410, so that when there is no external force, the printing cylinder 410 is kept at a certain distance from the conveyor belt 2 by the pull of the pull springs 49, so that the printing cylinder 410 will not be affected when the conveyor belt 2 moves the mooncake.

[0029] Multiple printing cylinders 410 are installed on one end of the corresponding lifting rod 48.

[0030] Specifically, in the actual operation process, relevant personnel need to print on the mooncakes, and the printed mooncakes need to be printed with different printing tubes 410 according to the diameter of the mooncake or the required pattern.

[0031] First, the drive unit 3 drives the conveyor belt 2 to move, which in turn moves the mooncakes on the conveyor belt 2. When the mooncakes move to the bottom of the printing cylinder 410, the output end of the electric telescopic rod 42 is controlled to move downward. When the output end of the electric telescopic rod 42 moves downward, it pushes the lifting rod 48 to move downward. The lifting rod 48 moves downward, which drives the printing cylinder 410 to move downward. Thus, the mooncakes below the printing cylinder 410 can be printed. When the printing cylinder 410 needs to be replaced, the positioning component 45 is used to release the positioning of the rotating disk 46. Then, the rotating disk 46 can be rotated. The rotation of the rotating disk 46 drives the fixed cylinder 47 to rotate. The rotation of the fixed cylinder 47 drives the printing cylinder 410 to rotate. Thus, different printing cylinders 410 can be rotated to the bottom of the electric telescopic rod 42 to print different mooncakes.

[0032] By precisely controlling the position and rotation of multiple printing cylinders 410, different patterns can be printed on mooncakes. This method can not only meet diverse production needs, but also significantly improve the adaptability and flexibility of the equipment.

[0033] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the diameters of the multiple printing cylinders 410 are different.

[0034] It should be noted that the printing cylinder 410 can be rotated according to production needs. Different diameter printing cylinders 410 can be selected to print on mooncakes of different diameters, or different pattern printing cylinders 410 can be selected to print on mooncakes with different patterns.

[0035] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the positioning assembly 45 includes a positioning disk 451, a positioning pin 452, and a plurality of stabilizing grooves 453, wherein the positioning disk 451 is mounted on the support rod 44.

[0036] It should be noted that the angle of rotation of the rotating disk 46 is the same each time, and after the rotating disk 46 is rotated, there is always a stabilizing groove 453 located below the positioning pin 452.

[0037] The positioning pin 452 slides through the positioning disk 451. Multiple stabilizing grooves 453 are arranged in a circular array on the rotating disk 46.

[0038] Specifically, in actual operation, the rotating disk 46 needs to be rotated to replace different printing cylinders 410. Before rotating the rotating disk 46, the positioning pin 452 needs to be pulled. The movement of the positioning pin 452 will cause the positioning pin 452 to no longer be engaged with the stabilizing groove 453. Then the rotating disk 46 can be rotated. After rotating the rotating disk 46, the positioning pin 452 is positioned.

[0039] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the number of stabilizing grooves 453 is the same as the number of printing cylinders 410.

[0040] In summary, the mooncake surface printing device of this utility model can flexibly print different patterns on mooncakes by precisely controlling the position rotation of multiple printing cylinders 410. This method can not only meet diverse production needs, but also significantly improve the adaptability and flexibility of the equipment.
