The equipment for this technology consists of a prepress system and a laser plate-making machine, collectively referred to as a computer-to-plate system.

[0003] The production process of CTP plates involves washing, degreasing, acid washing, alkali washing, washing, drying, cutting into square plates, laminating, and collecting. When testing the printing durability of CTP plates, they need to be washed and then dried to ensure the adhesion of the lamination.

[0004] The existing technology has the following problems:

[0005] In actual use, the existing equipment cannot quickly remove some of the moisture from the surface of the CTP plate before drying, resulting in a longer drying time and reduced work efficiency. At the same time, the drying of the CTP plate is not uniform enough, which can affect the quality and reduce the effectiveness of the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0015] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the technological progress achieved by this utility model compared to the prior art is as follows:

[0016] 1. This utility model provides a drying device for CTP plate production. Through a wiping mechanism, with the cooperation of a hydraulic cylinder, a movable plate, a wiping plate, an ear plate, a through hole, bolts, screw holes, and a guide rod, the hydraulic cylinder can push the wiping plate downward through the movable plate, so that the wiping plate can contact the surface of the CTP plate.

[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments:

[0025] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a drying equipment for CTP plate production, including a fixed guide frame 1. The upper end of the fixed guide frame 1 has symmetrically formed grooves 2 on both the front and rear inner walls. A worm gear 3 is rotatably installed inside the groove 2. Multiple sets of rotating conveyor rollers 4 are equidistantly distributed on the upper inner side of the fixed guide frame 1. A drying box 5 is fixedly installed on the upper right end face of the fixed guide frame 1. A stabilizing plate 6 is fixedly connected to the left end of the drying box 5. A wiping mechanism 7 is installed in the middle of the stabilizing plate 6. Drying mechanisms 8 are symmetrically installed on both the front and rear sides of the drying box 5. Limiting rings 9 are fixedly sleeved in the middle of each conveyor roller. A motor 10 is installed on the top of the worm gear 3. Worm wheels 11 are symmetrically sleeved on the outer sides of both the front and rear ends of the conveyor roller 4. A connecting seat 12 is fixedly connected to the rear inner wall of the groove 2.

[0026] The bottom end of the motor 10 is fixedly connected to the right side of the groove 2, the output end of the motor 10 is driven and installed on the top of the worm 3, the two ends of the conveying guide roller 4 are rotatably installed inside the connecting seat 12, and the worm wheel 11 meshes with the worm 3.

[0027] The motor 10, hydraulic cylinder 71, heating plate 82, and fan 84 are all electrically connected to the external controller.

[0028] By placing the CTP plate inside the limiting ring 9, the limiting ring 9 can limit and fix the CTP plate, thereby ensuring that the CTP plate remains in the correct position during the drying process. Multiple sets of rotating conveyor rollers 4 can easily drive the CTP plate to move, thereby ensuring the continuity and efficiency of CTP plate drying.

[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, the wiping mechanism 7 includes a hydraulic cylinder 71. The lower end of the hydraulic cylinder 71 is fixedly connected to the upper middle part of the stabilizing plate 6. The lower end of the output rod of the hydraulic cylinder 71 is fixedly connected to a movable plate 72. A wiping plate 73 is movably installed on the lower side of the movable plate 72. Ear plates 74 are symmetrically fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the wiping plate 73. A through hole 75 is opened through the surface of the ear plate 74. A bolt 76 is movably inserted into the through hole 75. Screw holes 77 are symmetrically opened on both the front and rear sides of the movable plate 72. Guide rods 78 are symmetrically slidably passed through both the front and rear sides of the stabilizing plate 6.

[0030] The lower end of the wiping plate 73 is glued with an absorbent sponge, and the bolt 76 is threadedly connected to the screw hole 77.

[0031] The lower end of the guide rod 78 is symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the upper end of the movable plate 72.

[0032] When the movable plate 72 moves up and down, it drives the guide rod 78 to move synchronously, thereby improving the stability of the movable plate 72 during movement. The water-absorbing sponge on the wiping plate 73 can absorb and wipe some of the moisture on the CTP plate surface, thereby shortening the drying time of the CTP plate. By loosening the bolt 76 from the screw hole 77 and pulling it out, the wiping plate 73 can be removed from the movable plate 72, making it convenient to replace or clean it.

[0033] like Figure 5 As shown, the drying mechanism 8 includes a through-hole 81, which is symmetrically opened on the front and rear sides of the drying box 5. A heating plate 82 is fixedly connected inside the through-hole 81. An outer frame 83 is symmetrically fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the drying box 5. A fan 84 is fixedly connected inside the outer frame 83. A dustproof net 85 is connected to the inner and outer sides of the outer frame 83.

[0034] The outer frame 83 is connected to the interior of the drying oven 5 through the opening 81.

[0035] The inner and outer sides of the outer frame 83 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the dustproof net 85.

[0036] The dustproof net 85 can effectively reduce the entry of dust and particulate matter in the air into the outer frame 83, thereby preventing dust and particulate matter from damaging the fan 84.

[0037] The working principle of the drying equipment produced by this CTP version will be explained in detail below.

[0038] like Figure 1-5 As shown, when using the drying equipment for CTP plates, the motor 10 is first started, causing the worm gear 3 to rotate. The worm gear 3, through multiple meshing worm wheels 11, drives multiple equidistantly distributed conveyor rollers 4 to rotate synchronously. The CTP plate to be dried is then placed on the conveyor rollers 4, positioned between two limiting rings 9. The conveyor rollers 4 then move the CTP plate. When the CTP plate moves below the wiping plate 73, the hydraulic cylinder 71 is activated, pushing the movable plate 72 downwards. This causes the movable plate 72 to move synchronously with the wiping plate 73, allowing the wiping plate 73 to contact the surface of the CTP plate. When the conveyor rollers 4 carry the CTP plate into the drying chamber 5, the wiping plate 73 can clean and dry the CTP plate. The surface of the CTP plate is wiped to remove some moisture and impurities in advance, thus shortening the drying time. After the CTP plate enters the drying chamber 5, the heating plates 82 on the front and rear sides and the fan 84 can be activated. The heating plates 82 generate a large amount of heat when powered on, and the fan 84 blows air towards the heating plates 82. When the air comes into contact with the heat generated by the heating plates 82, hot air is formed. At the same time, the hot air enters the drying chamber 5 through the opening 81, thus effectively drying the CTP plate in the drying chamber 5, making it dry evenly and greatly improving work efficiency. Finally, the dried CTP plate is removed from the drying chamber 5 by the conveyor rollers 4, thus completing the drying process of the CTP plate.

[0039] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
