[0026] The side of recycling bin 1 is provided with drying box 3, the upper surface of drying box 3 is provided with first hose 343, the upper end of first hose 343 is connected with moving plate 34, channel 341 is formed in the inside of moving plate 34, and air outlet 342 is communicated with the lower surface of channel 341 in the lower surface of moving plate 34, the setting utilizes drying box 3 to heat the entering air, and the air enters the inside of channel 341 through first hose 343, and finally realizes the purpose of drying printer nozzle by spraying outwards through air outlet 342.
[0027] As Figure 1 shown, the outside of cleaning nozzle is provided with lifting plate, the lower surface of top plate 13 is provided with electric lifting rod symmetrically, and the telescopic end of electric lifting rod is connected to the upper surface of lifting plate, the setting utilizes the work of electric lifting rod to make lifting plate lift up and down below top plate 13, the cleaning pipe 21 is telescopic hose, and then the height of cleaning nozzle can be adjusted when lifting plate lifts up and down, so that the purpose of cleaning printer nozzle can be realized.
[0028] As Figure 2As shown, the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod 44 is installed on one side of the fourth mounting plate 421, and the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 44 is connected to one side of the third mounting plate 411. A guide rod 43 is symmetrically arranged on one side of the limiting plate 42. The positioning plate 4 and the adjusting plate 41 are slidably arranged outside the guide rod 43. This arrangement uses the operation of the electric telescopic rod 44 to make the adjusting plate 41 move on the fixed plate 12. When moving, the positioning plate 4 and the adjusting plate 41 are guided to move outside the guide rod 43, thereby clamping and positioning the printer nozzle inside the mounting hole 45 to ensure its stability.
[0029] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the upper surface of the drying chamber 3 is provided with a first mounting plate 31 and a second mounting plate 32 from front to back. A motor 33 is mounted on the front surface of the first mounting plate 31. The drive end of the motor 33 is connected to a threaded rod 331. A guide rod 332 is arranged parallel to one side of the threaded rod 331 between the first mounting plate 31 and the second mounting plate 32. A moving plate 34 is slidably mounted outside the threaded rod 331 and the guide rod 332. This arrangement utilizes the operation of the motor 33 to make the threaded rod 331 rotate. When rotating, the moving plate 34 moves outside the threaded rod 331 and the guide rod 332, so that the air outlet 342 below the moving plate 34 moves to the top of the clamped and cleaned nozzle, which facilitates the subsequent drying.
[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, an air inlet 38 is provided on one side of the drying chamber 3, and a filter screen 37 is provided inside the drying chamber 3 near the air inlet 38. Heating tubes 36 are also symmetrically arranged inside the drying chamber 3, and a fan 35 is also provided inside the drying chamber 3. This arrangement uses the fan 35 to bring outside air into the drying chamber 3 through the air inlet 38, filter it through the filter screen 37, and then heat it through the heating tubes 36 so that it can be discharged later to dry the cleaned printer printhead.
[0031] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When using the printer nozzle cleaning device of this utility model, the nozzle to be cleaned is first placed into the mounting hole 45. After placement, the electric telescopic rod 44 on one side of the fourth mounting plate 421 will cause the adjusting plate 41 to move towards the position of the limiting plate 42, and cause multiple positioning plates 4 to come together to clamp and position the printer nozzle inside the mounting hole 45. It should be noted that the positioning plate 4, adjusting plate 41 and limiting plate 42 are provided with water permeable holes of the same size as the water inlet 121, so that the excess water from subsequent cleaning can enter the recycling bin 1 for recycling through the water inlet 121.
[0032] After clamping and positioning, the lifting plate can be raised and lowered by the electric lifting rod on the lower surface of the top plate 13, so as to adjust the height of the cleaning nozzle. At the same time, by starting the water pump inside the cleaning tank 2, the cleaning water inside can be extracted and then enters the connecting pipe through the cleaning pipe 21. Finally, it is sprayed out through the cleaning nozzle to achieve the purpose of cleaning the printer nozzle.
[0033] After cleaning, the lifting plate rises and the motor 33 on the front surface of the first mounting plate 31 is activated. This causes the moving plate 34 to move outside the threaded rod 331 and guide rod 332, so that the air outlet 342 below the moving plate 34 moves to the top of the clamped cleaned printhead. After reaching the position, the fan 35 inside the drying chamber 3 works, so that the outside air enters the interior of the drying chamber 3 through the air inlet 38 and is filtered through the filter screen 37. After filtration, it is heated by the heating tube 36. The heated air enters the channel 341 through the first hose 343 and is finally discharged out through the air outlet 342 to dry the cleaned printer printhead, thereby achieving the purpose of cleaning and drying multiple printer printheads at the same time.
[0034] The water pump, fan, electric telescopic pole, and electric lifting pole used in this invention are all existing known electrical equipment, and can all be purchased and used directly on the market. Their structure, circuit, and control principle are all existing known technologies. Therefore, the structure, circuit, and control principle of the device will not be described in detail here.
[0035] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model are implemented according to conventional methods in the art, unless otherwise specified or limited.
