Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cardboard box printing technology, and in particular to a roller paper processing device for color cardboard box printing. Background Technology

[0002] Color carton printing refers to the process of printing colored patterns and text onto the surface of a carton through a series of technological steps. The printing cylinders provide stable support for the carton during the printing process, ensuring that the carton does not shift or deform. For example, the impression cylinder, through contact with the printing plate cylinder, ensures the carton remains stable during printing, thereby preventing misalignment of the printed patterns.

[0003] In the color printing process of cardboard boxes, the cleanliness of the printing surface directly affects the printing quality. If there is dust, paper scraps, or other particles on the surface of the cardboard box, it will cause uneven ink adhesion and printing defects (such as missing prints, color differences, missing dots, etc.), which will seriously affect the finished product qualification rate.

[0004] In existing technologies, current carton printing equipment typically lacks efficient cleaning devices before printing, or only uses simple brushes or air blowing for dust removal, resulting in limited cleaning effectiveness and difficulty in thoroughly removing contaminants from the printed surface. Furthermore, the nylon brushes of traditional cleaning devices are prone to wear and clogging after prolonged use, requiring regular replacement to maintain cleaning efficiency. However, existing cleaning structures are often complex in design, with cumbersome disassembly and replacement processes that require downtime, impacting production efficiency. For example, some equipment uses fixed brush holders, requiring the removal of multiple bolts or adjustment of the entire mechanism for replacement, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive; others use integrated cleaning rollers, making it impossible to replace the brushes individually, leading to increased maintenance costs. Therefore, we propose a roller paper handling device for color carton printing to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a roller paper handling device for color carton printing.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A roller paper processing device for color carton printing includes a frame. An impression cylinder and a first air pipe are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the frame. A second air pipe is threaded to one end of the first air pipe, and a connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the other end of the first air pipe. A drive shaft is fixedly connected to one end of the impression cylinder. Gears are fixedly fitted on the outer walls of both the connecting pipe and the drive shaft, and the two gears are meshed together. A rotary joint is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting pipe, and an exhaust pipe is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotary joint. A dust removal fan is fixedly connected to one end of the exhaust pipe. Rubber sleeves are fitted on the outer walls of both the first and second air pipes. Multiple nylon brushes are evenly fixedly connected to the outer walls of the two rubber sleeves. A limiting component is provided at one end of the second air pipe. Multiple strip-shaped holes are evenly opened on the outer walls of the first and second air pipes. A guide component is provided at the bottom of the impression cylinder.

By setting the guiding assembly, the height of the conveying guide plate can be adjusted to meet the conveying needs of cartons of different thicknesses.

[0010] Preferably, the outer wall of the frame has two through holes, and the inner walls of the two through holes are rotatably connected to the outer walls of the connecting pipe and the drive shaft, respectively.

[0011] Preferably, the outer wall of the frame is provided with a groove, and the inner wall of the groove is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the second air pipe. When the second air pipe is in contact with the first air pipe and the bushing has moved away from the right end of the second air pipe, the right end of the second air pipe slides out directly through the groove.

[0012] Preferably, the outer wall of the frame is provided with a rectangular groove, and the inner wall of the rectangular groove is slidably connected to the outer wall of the threaded column. The rectangular groove is used to assist the threaded column in moving and fixing.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Depend on Figures 1-6 As shown, a roller paper processing device for color carton printing is disclosed, comprising a frame 1, which is welded from high-strength steel plate and rust-proofed to ensure long-term stable operation. Adjustable feet are provided on both sides of the frame 1 to facilitate equipment leveling. An impression roller 2 and a first air pipe 3 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the frame 1. A second air pipe 4 is threadedly connected to one end of the first air pipe 3. The first air pipe 3 and the second air pipe 4 are made of aluminum alloy and have a hollow internal design. A sealing ring (such as a fluororubber O-ring) is provided at the threaded connection to ensure airtightness during negative pressure suction.

[0026] The outer wall of the frame 1 has a groove, the inner wall of which is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the second air pipe 4. The other end of the first air pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the connecting pipe 5. One end of the impression roller 2 is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 6. The drive shaft 6 is directly connected to the existing geared motor through a coupling. The outer wall of the frame 1 has two through holes, the inner walls of which are rotatably connected to the outer walls of the connecting pipe 5 and the drive shaft 6, respectively. Roller bearings are fixedly fitted on the outer walls of both the connecting pipe 5 and the drive shaft 6. The outer rings of the roller bearings are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the frame 1. Gears 7 are fixedly fitted on the outer walls of both the connecting pipe 5 and the drive shaft 6. The two gears 7 are meshed together.

[0027] A rotary joint 8 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting pipe 5. An air extraction pipe is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotary joint 8. A dust removal fan is fixedly connected to one end of the air extraction pipe. Rubber sleeves 9 are fitted on the outer walls of the first air pipe 3 and the second air pipe 4. The inner wall of the rubber sleeve 9 is provided with anti-slip texture to ensure that there is no relative sliding with the air pipe. Multiple nylon brushes 10 are evenly fixedly connected to the outer walls of the two rubber sleeves 9. Multiple strip holes 15 are evenly opened on the outer walls of the first air pipe 3 and the second air pipe 4. The multiple strip holes 15 are evenly distributed along the axial direction of the air pipe. The edges of the holes are chamfered to prevent paper fibers from sticking.

[0028] One end of the second air tube 4 is provided with a limiting component, which includes a bushing 11. One end of the second air tube 4 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bushing 11. A self-lubricating copper sleeve is embedded inside the bushing 11 to reduce frictional resistance with the second air tube 4. An L-shaped plate 12 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bushing 11. A threaded post 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the L-shaped plate 12. A rectangular groove is opened on the outer wall of the frame 1. The inner wall of the rectangular groove is slidably connected to the outer wall of the threaded post 13. A locking cap 14 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded post 13.

[0029] The bottom of the impression cylinder 2 is provided with a guide assembly, which includes a conveying guide plate 17. A U-shaped frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the frame 1. An electric push rod 16 is fixedly connected inside the U-shaped frame. A round hole is opened at the bottom of the frame 1. The inner wall of the round hole is slidably connected to the outer wall of the output end of the electric push rod 16. The top of the output end of the electric push rod 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the conveying guide plate 17. The electric push rod 16 drives the conveying guide plate 17 to move up and down, which can change the distance between the conveying guide plate 17 and the impression cylinder 2.

[0030] Working Principle: During use, the carton is conveyed by existing conveying equipment (such as a conveyor belt). Before color printing, the carton passes between the impression roller 2 and the conveyor guide plate 17. The impression roller 2 is connected to the transmission shaft 6 via an existing drive device (gear motor) to achieve rotation. The rotation of the transmission shaft 6 drives the gear 7 connected to it to rotate. Through meshing, the gear 7 on the connecting pipe 5 rotates, thereby driving the connecting pipe 5, the first air pipe 3, and the second air pipe 4 to rotate. The thread direction of the first air pipe 3 and the second air pipe 4 is opposite to their own rotation direction to ensure stability. In addition, the position of the bushing 11 and the L-shaped plate 12 is fixed, preventing the second air pipe 4 from moving to the right. During the rotation of the first air pipe 3 and the second air pipe 4, the two rubber sleeves 9 are driven to rotate. The diameter of the rubber sleeves 9 is smaller than the diameter of the first air pipe 3 and the second air pipe 4. The two rubber sleeves 9 are fixed to the outer wall of the first air pipe 3 and the second air pipe 4 through their own elastic expansion. When the two rubber sleeves 9 rotate, they drive multiple nylon... The brush 10 rotates in the opposite direction to the impression cylinder 2 (the reverse force generated by the nylon brush 10 is insufficient to cause the carton to deviate compared to the squeezing and conveying force generated by the impression cylinder 2). After the nylon brush 10 contacts the printed surface of the carton, it cleans the printed surface. In conjunction with the operation of the dust removal fan, the suction pipe and rotary joint 8 create a suction process in the connecting pipe 5, generating negative pressure in the first air pipe 3 and the second air pipe 4. During the cleaning process, dust or particles are drawn out through multiple slotted holes 15. The dust is drawn away and filtered through the filter element installed at the air inlet of the dust collector fan. When replacing the nylon brushes 10 on the two rubber sleeves 9, rotate the locking cap 14 to release the position fixation of the threaded post 13 and the L-shaped plate 12, move the L-shaped plate 12 and the bushing 11 away from the right end of the second air pipe 4, and then rotate the second air pipe 4 to disengage it from the right end of the first air pipe 3. Then, the two rubber sleeves 9 can be pulled out from the outer wall of the first air pipe 3 and the second air pipe 4 respectively to facilitate the replacement of the nylon brushes 10.

[0031] It should be noted that, in actual use, an existing PLC controller can be added. The PLC controller is electrically connected to the geared motor and electric push rod 16 to facilitate overall control. The specific data analysis and processing involved to further realize the control function are methods that can be implemented by technical personnel based on common knowledge. These methods are not within the scope of this solution. The above description is only to illustrate the beneficial effects that this hardware structure improvement can achieve, based on common knowledge.
