Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ink processing technology, and in particular to a pigment particle separation device in ink products. Background Technology
[0002] Printing ink is an essential material used in printing, which transfers patterns and text onto a substrate through printing or inkjet printing. Printing ink consists of main and auxiliary components, which are uniformly mixed and repeatedly rolled to form a viscous, colloidal fluid. It is composed of binders (resins), pigments, fillers, additives, and solvents. It is used in various printing applications, including books, packaging, architectural decoration, and electronic circuit boards. With increasing societal demand, the variety and production volume of printing inks have expanded and grown accordingly.
[0003] Ink is generally made by mixing pigment particles, binders, and fillers during processing. The pigment particles determine the color of the ink. The three are mixed using stirring equipment. Since the pigment particles are in powder form, some larger particles are inevitable. Therefore, they need to be filtered and separated to prevent them from affecting the ink's performance. However, because ink does not flow as smoothly as water, and the pigment particles are not too large, the filter screens used for filtration often have small pore sizes. This results in a slow filtration process and low efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, how to quickly filter ink and separate pigment particles is a technical problem that the industry urgently needs to solve. Utility Model Content
[0005] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a pigment particle separation device for ink products, which aims to quickly filter the ink and separate the pigment particles.
[0006] This utility model proposes a pigment particle separation device for ink products, including a collection cylinder with an open top, a top cover, and multiple intermediate ring mechanisms;
[0007] Multiple intermediate ring mechanisms are arranged vertically stacked between the collecting cylinder and the top cover;
[0008] All of the aforementioned intermediate ring mechanisms have the same structure. One of the intermediate ring mechanisms includes a device ring. A filter screen is horizontally fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner ring surface of the device ring. Multiple support rods are horizontally fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner ring surface of the device ring and below the filter screen. A device block is fixedly connected to the inner end of the multiple support rods. The top end of the device block passes through the filter screen and extends upward. A mounting hole is vertically opened through the top end of the device block. A rotating shaft is vertically rotatably connected inside the mounting hole. An extension seat is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft and above the device block. A scraper with a length adapted to the radius of the filter screen is hinged to the outer end of the extension seat. A device frame is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the scraper. A vibration motor is fixedly connected inside the device frame.
[0009] Preferably, a connecting seat is fixedly connected to the inner side of the upper surface of the scraper and the upper part of the outer surface of the rotating shaft, and a first spring is hinged between the two connecting seats.
[0010] Preferably, a vertical groove is formed at the top end of the rotating shaft along its length direction, a second spring is vertically fixedly connected inside the vertical groove, an upper contact block with an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the vertical groove is fixedly connected at the top end of the second spring, and a lower contact block is fixedly connected at the bottom end of the rotating shaft.
[0011] Preferably, the top end of the collecting cylinder, the top and bottom ends of the plurality of device rings, and the bottom end of the top cover are all fixedly connected with matching flange rings, and the collecting cylinder, the plurality of intermediate ring mechanisms, and the top cover are all connected by flange rings.
[0012] Preferably, a motor is fixedly connected to the top of the top cover, and a connecting shaft is vertically fixedly connected to the bottom of the output shaft of the motor. The bottom of the connecting shaft rotatably passes through the top cover and extends downward, and a power block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting shaft.
[0013] Preferably, the upper surfaces of the plurality of upper contact blocks, the lower surfaces of the plurality of lower contact blocks, and the lower surface of the power block are all frosted, and a plurality of support pads are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the collecting cylinder.
[0014] This invention, by setting an intermediate ring mechanism, allows the device to rotate a shaft within the intermediate ring mechanism via a power structure during operation. As the shaft rotates, a scraper hinged to its surface continuously applies pressure to the ink located on the upper part of the filter screen, improving the efficiency of ink penetration downwards. Simultaneously, a device frame is mounted on the upper surface of the scraper, and a vibrating motor inside it continuously operates. This vibration drives the scraper to vibrate, which is then transmitted to the filter screen, further increasing the speed at which ink passes through the screen. The synchronization of these two mechanisms significantly improves the overall filtration efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The realization of the purpose, functional features and advantages of this utility model will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed Implementation
[0020] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0021] Reference Figure 1-3 An embodiment of the present invention is proposed: a pigment particle separation device in an ink product, comprising a collection cylinder 1 with an open top, a top cover 3, and multiple intermediate ring mechanisms 2;
[0022] Multiple intermediate ring mechanisms 2 are arranged vertically stacked between the collection cylinder 1 and the top cover 3;
[0023] The structures of the multiple intermediate ring mechanisms 2 are all the same. One of the intermediate ring mechanisms 2 includes a device ring 21. A filter screen 22 is horizontally fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner ring surface of the device ring 21. Multiple support rods 23 are horizontally fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner ring surface of the device ring 21 and below the filter screen 22. A device block 24 is fixedly connected to the inner end of the multiple support rods 23. The top end of the device block 24 passes through the filter screen 22 and extends upward. A mounting hole is vertically opened through the top end of the device block 24. A rotating shaft 25 is vertically rotatably connected inside the mounting hole. An extension seat is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft 25 and above the device block 24. A scraper 26 with a length adapted to the radius of the filter screen 22 is hinged to the outer end of the extension seat. A device frame 213 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the scraper 26. A vibration motor is fixedly connected inside the device frame 213.
[0024] When using the device, multiple intermediate ring mechanisms 2 are installed at the top of the collection cylinder 1. Then, ink is poured into the device. After that, the top cover 3 is installed on the topmost intermediate ring mechanism 2 and the device is started. The rotating shaft 25 in the intermediate ring mechanism 2 will rotate under the drive of the power structure. During its rotation, the scraper 26 installed on its surface will rotate continuously. The scraper 26 applies pressure to the ink on the filter screen 22, so that it can pass through the filter screen 22 more quickly. At the same time, the vibration motor inside the device frame 213 set on the scraper 26 will also run continuously. The vibration generated during its operation will be transmitted to the scraper 26 and then act on the filter screen 22, causing the filter screen 22 to vibrate, which can also improve the efficiency of ink penetration from the filter screen 22.
[0025] The device frame 213 can be opened, and a removable battery is installed inside to power the vibration motor. It can be replaced when the battery is low.
[0026] The multiple intermediate ring mechanisms 2 in this device can form a multi-stage filtration effect, ensuring the filtration effect while maintaining a high filtration efficiency.
[0027] Multiple scraper structures 26 are provided in an intermediate ring mechanism 2 to improve the actual efficiency of the device.
[0028] Furthermore, connecting seats 27 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the upper surface of the scraper 26 and the upper part of the outer surface of the rotating shaft 25, and a first spring 28 is hinged between the two connecting seats 27.
[0029] The first spring 28 continuously applies a downward force to the scraper 26, ensuring that it always adheres to the surface of the filter screen 22.
[0030] Furthermore, a vertical groove 29 is provided at the top of the rotating shaft 25 along its length direction. A second spring 210 is vertically fixedly connected inside the vertical groove 29. An upper contact block 211 with an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the vertical groove is fixedly connected at the top of the second spring 210. A lower contact block 212 is fixedly connected at the bottom of the rotating shaft 25.
[0031] A motor 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the top cover 3. A connecting shaft 5 is vertically fixedly connected to the bottom of the output shaft of the motor 4. The bottom of the connecting shaft 5 rotatably passes through the top cover 3 and extends downward. A power block 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting shaft 5.
[0032] The upper surfaces of multiple upper contact blocks 211, the lower surfaces of multiple lower contact blocks 212, and the lower surface of power block 6 are all frosted. Multiple support pads 7 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the collecting cylinder 1.
[0033] After the device is installed, the power block 6 at the bottom of the connecting shaft 5 will contact the upper contact block 211 in the top intermediate ring mechanism 2. Since the contact surfaces of the two are frosted, when the motor 4 runs, it will drive the connecting shaft 5 to rotate, and at the same time, it will drive the upper contact block 211 to rotate. The multiple intermediate ring mechanisms 2 are connected by adjacent upper contact blocks 211 and lower contact blocks 212, and their contact surfaces are also frosted. Therefore, one motor 4 can drive the rotating shafts 25 in all the intermediate ring mechanisms 2 to rotate synchronously.
[0034] The second spring 210 always provides an upward thrust to the upper contact block 211, ensuring that the connection between the upper contact block 211 and the lower contact block 212 in the multiple intermediate ring mechanisms 2 remains stable, thus ensuring the stability of the entire transmission structure.
[0035] Furthermore, the top end of the collecting cylinder 1, the top and bottom ends of the multiple device rings 21, and the bottom end of the top cover 3 are all fixedly connected with matching flange rings 8, and the collecting cylinder 1, the multiple intermediate ring mechanisms 2, and the top cover 3 are all connected by flange rings 8.
[0036] The flange structure has good sealing performance and is very easy to install and disassemble, making it especially suitable for connecting intermediate ring mechanisms 2 with an uncertain number of units.
[0037] When the device is in operation, the rotating shaft 25 in the intermediate ring mechanism 2 is driven to rotate by the power structure. During the rotation of the rotating shaft 25, the scraper 26 hinged to its surface can continuously apply pressure to the ink located on the upper part of the filter screen 22, thereby improving the efficiency of ink penetration downward. At the same time, a device frame 213 is also installed on the upper surface of the scraper 26, and the vibration motor inside it will also run continuously. Its vibration will drive the scraper 26 to vibrate, which will then be transmitted to the filter screen 22, thereby increasing the speed at which the ink passes through the filter screen 22. The synchronization of the two can greatly improve the overall filtration efficiency.
[0038] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
