Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ink cleaning and collection technology, specifically to an ink can cleaning device for ink production. Background Technology
[0002] Printing ink is an essential material used in printing, which transfers patterns and text onto a substrate through printing or inkjet printing. Printing ink consists of main and auxiliary components, which are uniformly mixed and repeatedly rolled to form a viscous, colloidal fluid. It is composed of binders (resins), pigments, fillers, additives, and solvents. It is used in various printing applications, including books, packaging, architectural decoration, and electronic circuit boards.
[0003] Patent CN208133816U discloses a waste ink collection device for high-grade facial cleansing packaging paper. It includes a fixed frame, with a groove on the bottom inner wall of the fixed frame along the width direction. A placement plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove, and a groove is formed on the top of the placement plate. A collection bucket is placed inside the groove, and an ink bucket is fixedly fitted to the top of the fixed frame directly above the collection bucket. This device can collect waste ink from the ink bucket to the maximum extent. At the same time, compared with traditional valves, it will not be blocked or the valve parts will not stick together after the ink dries after contact with air. This ensures rapid collection of waste ink.
[0004] However, this device relies on the up-and-down movement of a stopper rod to seal or open the connecting pipe, allowing residual waste ink to flow out on its own. Ink is generally quite viscous, and the device lacks a cleaning mechanism. It takes a long time for the residual waste ink to flow out of the connecting pipe on its own, and residual ink will also adhere to the inner wall of the ink tank, making it difficult to completely clean and collect the ink inside the ink tank. Therefore, an ink tank cleaning device for ink production is proposed to solve the problem that existing cleaning devices cannot quickly clean and collect waste ink inside ink tanks.

[0023] Example: Please refer to Figure 1-4An ink can cleaning device for ink production includes a base 1, a collection tank 2 on the top of the base 1, a water inlet pipe 3 on the inner wall of one end of the base 1, a drain pipe 4 on one side of the base 1, a vertical plate 5 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, a lifting groove 6 on one end of the vertical plate 5, a lifting seat 7 in the inner cavity of the lifting groove 6, a servo motor 8 on the inner wall of the lifting seat 7, the lifting seat 7 and the lifting groove 6 connected by an electric slide rail 9, an adjusting seat 10 rotatably connected to one end of the lifting seat 7, a clamping mechanism 11 at one end of the adjusting seat 10, a cleaning pipe 12 fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the collection tank 2, high-pressure nozzles 13 on the top and outer ring of the cleaning pipe 12, an L-shaped receiving plate 14 fixedly connected to the bottom of the adjusting seat 10, and a collection mechanism 15 on the top of the base 1.
[0024] Furthermore, the cleaning pipe 12 extends through the inner wall of the base 1 and is interconnected with the water inlet pipe 3, the drain pipe 4 and the collection tank 2, and a valve is provided on the outer ring.
[0025] Furthermore, the output shaft of the servo motor 8 is fixedly connected to the adjustment seat 10, and the cleaning tube 12 is aligned with the vertical axis of the upright plate 5, the adjustment seat 10, and the base 1, and is located in the middle of the inner cavity of the collection tank 2.
[0026] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism 11 includes clamping arc plates 111 symmetrically arranged at one end of the adjusting seat 10. An adjusting groove 112 is provided at one end of the adjusting seat 10. Adjusting blocks 113 are symmetrically arranged in the inner cavity of the adjusting groove 112. The adjusting blocks 113 are fixedly connected to the clamping arc plates 111.
[0027] Furthermore, the inner cavity of the adjusting groove 112 is rotatably equipped with a bidirectional screw 114. The bidirectional screw 114 passes through the adjusting seat 10 and is rotatably connected by a bearing at the intersection. The bidirectional screw 114 passes through two adjusting blocks 113 and the two are threadedly connected. A handle 115 is fixedly connected to one side of the bidirectional screw 114. After the bottom of the ink can is placed on the L-shaped receiving plate 14, the handle 115, in conjunction with the bearing, drives the bidirectional screw 114 to rotate, thereby driving the two adjusting blocks 113, together with the clamping arc plate 111, to move towards the middle to clamp and limit the ink can. This facilitates the clamping, fixing, and cleaning of ink cans of different sizes, improving the applicability of this ink can cleaning device for ink production.
[0028] Furthermore, the collection mechanism 15 includes a collection box 151 slidably disposed on the top of the base 1. A fixing plate 152 is fixedly connected to one side of the base 1. A limiting groove 153 is symmetrically opened on the top of the fixing plate 152. A support column 154 is symmetrically and fixedly connected to the bottom of the collection box 151. The bottom of the support column 154 is located in the inner cavity of the limiting groove 153 and is slidably connected. When the ink tank is rotated to the point where the opening is facing down by the servo motor 8, if there is a lot of ink remaining in the ink tank, the limiting groove 153 on the fixing plate 152 can be used in conjunction with the support column 154 to move the collection box 151 to the right. Then the ink tank is rotated to the tilt position, so that the opening is located at the top of the collection box 151. The remaining excess ink is poured into the collection box 151 for collection, thereby achieving the purpose of collecting excess ink and improving the practicality of this ink tank cleaning device for ink production.
[0029] Working principle: When using this ink can cleaning device for ink production, the ink can to be cleaned is placed on the L-shaped receiving plate 14. At the same time, the ink can is clamped and limited to one end of the adjusting seat 10 by the clamping mechanism 11. Then, the servo motor 8 is turned on to drive the adjusting seat 10 and the limited ink can to rotate 180 degrees so that the can opening is facing down. Then, the electric slide rail 9 drives the lifting seat 7 in the lifting groove 6 and the adjusting seat 10 to move down so that the ink can covers the high-pressure nozzle 13. At the same time, the water pipe is connected to the water inlet pipe 3 and water is sprayed out from the high-pressure nozzle 13 on the cleaning pipe 12. The ink can is moved up and down to remove the residual waste ink, which solves the problem that existing cleaning devices are difficult to quickly clean and collect waste ink in ink cans. When the ink can is rotated to the point where the can opening is facing down, the ink slides into the collection groove 2 by its own gravity. The ink attached to the can wall can be washed by the high-pressure nozzle 13 during the up and down movement of the ink can and flows into the collection groove 2 for collection, which is convenient for subsequent recycling of ink.
