Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cork paper production equipment, specifically to an online heating and ink supply device for cork paper production. Background Technology

[0002] Tipping paper is a cigarette packaging material used as the outer packaging of cigarette filter rods. It wraps around the filter tip and attaches the filter rod to the end of the cigarette pack. The printing ink and coating of tipping paper must be non-toxic and meet food hygiene standards. Tipping paper also has a certain degree of water resistance and wet strength.

[0003] Sweetened tipping paper enhances the user experience, thus requiring the use of sweetened inks during its production. In existing technology, the ink is transported from the ink reservoir to an ink supply system, which then continuously delivers it to the printing end (e.g., an inkjet printer). Because the solubility of the sweetener in the ink changes with temperature, it easily crystallizes when the ink temperature in the reservoir is low. This leads to poor printing quality and uneven sweetness in the subsequent sweetened tipping paper printing process. Utility Model Content

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, an online heating ink supply device for producing cork paper includes: an ink storage tank 1 and an ink supply barrel 2, wherein the ink storage tank 1 is connected to the ink supply barrel 2 via a pipeline, and the ink supply barrel 2 is connected to the printing end via a pipeline.

[0026] Furthermore, the ink reservoir 1 is externally fitted with a first heating jacket 3. The top of the first heating jacket 3 has symmetrically arranged liquid inlets, while the bottom of the heating jacket has symmetrically arranged liquid outlets. Low-temperature liquids (such as pure water or heat transfer oil) can be supplied through the liquid inlets, and after heating is complete, the high-temperature liquid inside can be quickly drained through the liquid outlets. Heating rods 31 are inserted inside the first heating jacket 3. When energized, the heating rods 31 heat the heating medium inside the first jacket, thereby gradually raising the temperature of the ink in the ink reservoir 1. Specifically, the heating rods 31 are inserted at the bottom of the first heating jacket 3, and 4-8 sets of heating rods 31 are arranged in a ring.

[0027] Correspondingly, a second heating jacket 4 is fitted around the outside of the ink supply tank 2. The top of the second heating jacket 4 is symmetrically provided with steam ports, and the steam ports of the second heating jacket 4 are connected to a steam generator (not shown in the figure) through a pipeline, so that the high-temperature steam generated in the steam generator can be continuously delivered to the second heating jacket 4, thereby maintaining the ink in the ink supply tank 2 at a constant temperature.

[0028] Understandably, after the ink containing sweetener enters the ink storage tank 1 from the ink supply end, it will be continuously heated and then transported to the ink supply barrel 2 for heating and insulation, which effectively avoids the problem of ink being drawn out and crystallized when it is transported to the printing end.

[0029] Please continue reading. Figure 1In this embodiment, a first sealing cover 7 is provided on the top of the ink storage tank 1. The first sealing cover 7 is detachably connected to the ink storage tank 1 via a flange, allowing for convenient and quick opening of the first sealing cover 7 when cleaning, maintenance, or repair of the ink storage tank 1 is required. Simultaneously, it ensures good sealing of the internal space of the ink storage tank 1 during normal operation, effectively preventing ink evaporation or the entry of external impurities. Specifically, a stirring motor 5 is provided on the top of the first sealing cover 7, and the output end of the stirring motor 5 is rotatably connected to the stirring shaft 6 inside the ink storage tank 1. When the stirring motor 5 is started, it drives the stirring blades on the stirring shaft 6 to rotate continuously inside the ink storage tank 1, thereby thoroughly stirring the ink inside the ink storage tank 1.

[0030] Furthermore, a first inlet 71 is provided on one side of the top of the first sealing cover 7, and the first inlet 71 is connected to the ink supply end through a pipeline, so that the ink supply end can continuously deliver ink to the ink storage tank 1 through the first inlet 71; while a first outlet 72 is provided on the other side of the top of the first sealing cover 7, and the first outlet 72 is connected to the ink supply tank 2 through a pipeline, so that the heated and stirred ink can be continuously delivered to the ink supply tank 2 through the first outlet 72; in addition, a first observation port 73 is also provided on one side of the first outlet 72, through which the operator can observe the ink level, ink color and flow status in the ink storage tank 1 in real time.

[0031] Please continue reading. Figure 1 In this embodiment, a second sealing cover 8 is provided on the top of the ink supply tank 2. The second sealing cover 8 is detachably connected to the ink supply tank 2 by bolts. This not only ensures the firmness of the connection between the second sealing cover 8 and the ink supply tank 2, but also allows for relatively easy removal of the second sealing cover 8 when it is necessary to operate inside the ink supply tank 2.

[0032] Specifically, a second inlet 81 is provided on one side of the top of the second sealing cover 8, and the second inlet 81 is connected to the first outlet 72 of the ink storage tank 1 through a pipeline, so that the ink storage tank 1 can continuously supply ink to the ink supply tank 2 through the second inlet 81; while a second outlet 82 is provided on the other side of the top of the second sealing cover 8, and the second outlet 82 is connected to the printing end (such as an ink printing machine) through a pipeline, so that the heated and stirred ink can be continuously supplied to the printing end through the second outlet 82; in addition, a second observation port 83 is provided in the middle of the second sealing cover 8, through which the operator can observe the ink level, ink color and flow status in the ink supply tank 2 in real time.

[0033] Furthermore, a return port 84 is also provided in the middle of the second observation port 83, and the second discharge port 82 and the return port 84 are connected to the printing end through a pipeline to form a circulation loop. It can be understood that during the actual printing process, when there is excess ink at the printing end or when ink needs to be recycled, the ink can flow back into the ink supply tank 2 through the return port 84, realizing ink recycling, avoiding ink waste, and also helping to maintain ink stability.

[0034] It should be noted in detail that the ink supply tank 2 includes an outer tank body 21 and an inner tank body 22, and the outer tank body 21 is covered with an insulation layer 9. Specifically, the insulation layer 9 can be made of insulation materials such as rubber, polyurethane foam or glass wool, which can effectively reduce the heat exchange between the ink in the ink supply tank 2 and the external environment, and maintain the relative stability of the ink temperature in the ink supply tank 2.

[0035] Working principle: A first heating jacket 3 is installed outside the ink reservoir 1, and a heating rod 31 is installed inside the first heating jacket 3. After the heating rod 31 starts working, it heats the heating medium inside the first heating jacket 3 and heats the ink in the ink reservoir 1 through heat transfer, so that the ink temperature rises to a suitable temperature. Then it is transported to the ink supply tank 2. A second heating jacket 4 is installed outside the ink supply tank 2. High-temperature steam is introduced into the second heating jacket 4, and the heat of the steam is used to keep the ink supply tank 2 warm. This ensures that the ink transported from the ink supply tank 2 to the printing press is always at a suitable temperature, and further prevents the sweetener from crystallizing and precipitating due to temperature changes in the ink inside the ink supply tank 2.

[0036] Through the above technical solution, this application effectively solves the problem of sweetener precipitation and crystallization caused by large temperature difference between ink and environment, which can effectively improve the uniformity of sweetness in sweet cork paper, thereby improving the ink printing effect.

[0037] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
