Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of pad printing latex head cleaning equipment, specifically a pad printing latex head cleaning mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Pad printing latex heads are specialized tools used in printing, primarily for transferring patterns from steel plates to various surfaces via a latex head. Pad printing is a special printing method, particularly suitable for printing text, graphics, and images on irregularly shaped surfaces. Pad printing latex heads are typically made of silicone, possessing excellent resilience and aging resistance, allowing for repeated use without loss of effectiveness.
[0003] After a period of use, excess ink and dirt will appear around the pad printing latex head. Currently, most cleaning is done manually by wiping. Not only is the cleaning effect affected by the wiping force and the person's technique, but it is also time-consuming, labor-intensive, and generally inefficient.
[0004] Therefore, we propose to design a cleaning mechanism for pad printing latex heads. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this section is to outline some aspects of the embodiments of this utility model and to briefly introduce some preferred embodiments. Simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of these documents; however, such simplifications or omissions should not be used to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, according to one aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A pad printing latex head cleaning mechanism includes a frame, an equipment platform fixedly connected to the top of the frame, a cylinder fixedly connected to the outer end of the top of the equipment platform, an oil cup provided at the telescopic end of the cylinder, a vertical frame fixedly connected to the top of the equipment platform, a first motor fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the vertical frame, a central shaft rotatably connected to the top of the vertical frame, a flipping frame fixedly connected to the outer wall of the central shaft, and a transmission assembly provided between the central shaft and the drive shaft of the first motor.
[0008] A second motor is fixedly connected to the top of the flipping frame. The drive shaft of the second motor passes through the flipping frame and is fixedly connected to a lead screw shaft. A ball nut is provided on the outside of the lead screw shaft. A telescopic frame is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the ball nut. A printing latex head is provided at the bottom of the telescopic frame.
[0009] A third motor is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom outer wall of the frame. The drive shaft of the third motor passes through the frame and is provided with a waste roll. A tape release roll is provided in the middle of the frame. The outer walls of the waste roll and the tape release roll are jointly provided with tape.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the pad printing latex head cleaning mechanism of this utility model, the transmission component includes a turntable fixedly connected to the drive shaft of a first motor, a cam fixedly connected to one end of the central shaft, and a connecting rod provided on the outer side of the turntable and the outer wall of the cam protrusion. The first motor drives the turntable to rotate, and the connecting rod drives the cam to swing, which in turn drives the central shaft to rotate, thereby driving the flipping frame and the printing latex head at its bottom to reciprocate.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the pad printing latex head cleaning mechanism of this utility model, the frame is provided with a number of limiting shafts corresponding to the tape in the middle, which facilitates the support and tensioning of the transparent tape.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the pad printing latex head cleaning mechanism of this utility model, a stencil is provided at the bottom of the printing latex head end, and the tape is slidably connected to the outer wall of the stencil. The tape slides outside the stencil, which facilitates the cleaning of excess ink residue around the printing latex head.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] This invention utilizes the cooperation between the frame, the third motor, the tape, and the waste roll. The third motor drives the waste roll to recycle the transparent tape, which facilitates the adhesion and adsorption of excess ink around the printing emulsion head, greatly improving the cleaning effect and efficiency.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a pad printing latex head cleaning mechanism, including a frame 1, an equipment platform 2 fixedly connected to the top of the frame 1, a cylinder 3 fixedly connected to the outer end of the top of the equipment platform 2, an oil cup 4 provided at the telescopic end of the cylinder 3, a stand 5 fixedly connected to the top of the equipment platform 2, a first motor 6 fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the stand 5, a central shaft 10 rotatably connected to the top of the stand 5, a flipping frame 7 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the central shaft 10, and a transmission assembly 9 provided between the central shaft 10 and the drive shaft of the first motor 6.
[0025] The transmission assembly 9 includes a turntable 901 fixedly connected to the drive shaft of the first motor 6. A cam 902 is fixedly connected to one end of the central shaft 10. A connecting rod 903 is provided on the outer side of the turntable 901 and the outer wall of the protruding end of the cam 902. The first motor 6 drives the turntable 901 to rotate. The connecting rod 903 drives the cam 902 to swing, which in turn drives the central shaft 10 to rotate. This, in turn, drives the flipping frame 7 and the printing latex head 14 at its bottom to rotate back and forth.
[0026] A second motor 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the flipping frame 7. The drive shaft of the second motor 8 passes through the flipping frame 7 and is fixedly connected to a lead screw shaft 11. A ball nut 12 is provided on the outside of the lead screw shaft 11. A telescopic frame 13 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the ball nut 12. A printing latex head 14 is provided at the bottom of the telescopic frame 13.
[0027] A third motor 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom outer wall of the frame 1. The drive shaft of the third motor 15 passes through the frame 1 and is provided with a waste roll 16. A tape release roll 17 is provided in the middle of the frame 1. The outer walls of the waste roll 16 and the tape release roll 17 are jointly provided with tape 18.
[0028] A stencil is provided at the bottom of the printing emulsion head 14. The tape 18 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the stencil. The tape 18 slides outside the stencil, which facilitates the cleaning of excess ink residue around the printing emulsion head 14.
[0029] The frame 1 has several limiting shafts 19 in the middle that correspond to the tape 18, which facilitates the support and tensioning of the transparent tape 18.
[0030] In use, firstly, the cylinder 3 pushes the ink cup 4 to push the ink into the text grooves on the engraving plate. Then, the first motor 6 is started, which drives the central shaft 10 and its bottom printing emulsion head 14 to rotate through the transmission component 9. Subsequently, the second motor 8 is started to drive the ball screw to move, which drives the printing emulsion head 14 to extend and retract to pick up ink and print characters.
[0031] After printing multiple times, excess ink remains around the latex head. This is then cleaned using tape 18. Finally, the third motor 15 is started to rotate the waste roll 16, pulling the transparent tape 18 to collect the dirty parts.
[0032] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way.
