[0002] Applying a protective film to the surface of metal printing plates can improve the protection of the metal plates. The coating material is generally UV adhesive.

[0003] UV adhesives can dry quickly by heating. In general coating equipment, heat is supplied by direct hot air blowing. The heat source is concentrated and far away from the metal sheet conveying area. After the hot air blows, the heat cannot be evenly distributed in the environment where the metal sheet is located. This will result in either some of the adhesive remaining undried or the overall curing time being extended. Therefore, an efficient coating device for metal printing is provided.

[0026] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0028] Example 1

[0029] A high-efficiency coating device for metal printing, combined with an attached Figure 1 The container includes a cabinet 1, which has inlet and outlet ports 2 at both ends. Metal sheets are fed into the container 1 through the inlet and outlet port 2 at one end for coating. The container 1 has a reserved space for installing a coating mechanism near one end.

[0030] Combined with appendix Figures 3-4The cabinet 1 is connected to a horizontally laid baffle 3. Above the baffle 3, a feeding mechanism for conveying metal sheets for coating is connected to the cabinet 1. The feeding mechanism includes a support rod 11 installed at the bottom of the cabinet 1. A drive shaft 17 and a driven shaft 21 are rotatably connected to both ends of the support rod 11. A second motor 18, which drives the drive shaft 17, is installed inside the cabinet 1. A carriage 20 is installed between the ends of the drive shaft 17 and the driven shaft 21. Figure 6 The drive shaft 17 and the driven shaft 21 are both equipped with power rollers 23 at their ends. Multiple support columns 14 are evenly connected on the support rod 11. The top of the support column 14 passes through the notch 5 and is rotatably connected to an auxiliary roller 16 that cooperates with the power roller 23. The power roller 23 and the auxiliary roller 16 are both connected to support shafts 15 that are rotatably connected to the ends of the support rod 11 and the support column 14, respectively.

[0031] The power roller 23 and the auxiliary roller 16 are rollers of the same specifications and model. The two rollers belonging to the same group have a slot reserved on the side that is close to each other, which can be selectively installed later. The end faces of the rollers that are far from each other are equipped with clamps to limit the position of the metal plate being carried during the conveying process. The apex of their bearing surface is kept at the same horizontal height as the bottom surface of the inlet / outlet 2. If there is any error, the apex must not be lower than the horizontal height of the bottom surface of the inlet / outlet 2.

[0032] The operation of motor 18 causes the drive shaft 17 to rotate. After a set of rollers clamps the two ends of the metal plate, the two rollers can rotate synchronously. Similarly, through the contact of the metal plate with each roller, the auxiliary roller 16 can also rotate synchronously with the power roller 23 without directly contacting the power source, and provide effective support and transportation for the metal plate. The power wheel that directly contacts the power source rotates in a consistent manner through the slide 20 installed between the drive shaft 17 and the driven shaft 21. The pulleys in the slide 20 are respectively installed on the ends of the drive shaft 17 and the driven shaft 21, and the synchronous belt is installed between the two pulleys.

[0033] Combined with appendix Figure 2 and attached Figure 4 The feeding mechanism also includes an adjustment component that adapts to conveying metal sheets of various widths by changing the distance between the two support rods 11. The adjustment component includes a screw 8 rotatably mounted and connected to one side of the bottom of the cabinet 1, combined with the attached... Figure 1 The bottom of the cabinet 1 is equipped with a No. 1 motor 9 that drives and cooperates with the screw 8, combined with the attached... Figures 7-8 The bottom of the cabinet 1 is connected to a sliding rod 12 on the side away from the screw 8. The two ends of the support rod 11 are respectively connected to a screw sleeve 10 and a sliding sleeve 13 that are threaded to the screw 8 and slidably connected to the sliding rod 12.

[0034] To improve the adaptability of the device, an additional motor 9 is added to drive the screw 8 to rotate. The slide rod 12, located away from the motor 9 and the screw 8 inside the cabinet 1, is slidably connected to the support rod 11. This ensures that the support rod 11, which is threaded onto the screw 8, can carry the corresponding rollers and move within the cabinet 1. The external thread structure on the screw 8 is set in opposite directions, which allows the rollers on both sides to move and adjust towards each other within the cabinet 1 after rotation, thereby changing the feeding mechanism's load-bearing requirements for the width of the metal sheet.

[0035] Combined with appendix Figure 5 The cabinet 1 is slidably connected to a slide frame 20 for supporting and cooperating with the operation of the adjustment component. The cabinet 1 is also connected to a plurality of support rods 19 that are slidably connected to the slide frame 20 inside the cabinet 1.

[0036] In order to accommodate the movement of the support rod 11, the second motor 18 is installed in a slide 20 and can also move in the cabinet 1. The two support rods 19 installed in the cabinet 1 not only provide a path for its movement, but also provide effective support.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] Combined with appendix Figures 2-4 The cabinet 1, located below the baffle 3, is equipped with a heating coil 6 that circulates hot water internally to provide heat for the coating on the metal sheet, enabling it to dry and cure quickly. A water pump 7 is installed on the heating coil 6. Figure 1 and attached Figure 4 The top of the cabinet 1 is connected to an air duct 24, and a fan 25 is installed inside the air duct 24;

[0039] The device provides sufficient, stable and uniform heat to cure and dry the coating material on the metal sheet by placing a heating coil 6 close to the metal sheet being transported. The heating coil 6 is equipped with a water pump 7. By regulating the water pump 7 or by making reasonable heat insulation zones in the cabinet 1, the heat provided by the hot water in the pipe can be effectively prevented from affecting the coating process.

[0040] The heating coil 6 adopts a bent pipe with a reciprocating bending structure, which is arranged under the metal plate to increase the direct contact area between hot water and outside air, effectively utilizing the heat of hot water to efficiently heat the environment inside the paint drying space of the cabinet 1.

[0041] The fan 25 in the air duct 24 above the metal plate draws the air out of the cabinet 1 after it is running, so that the air duct 1 forms an upward airflow, which causes the heat emitted by the heating coil 6 below the metal plate to rise to the position of the metal plate.

[0042] The baffle 3 is provided with notches 5 evenly, and the baffle 3 is provided with arc-shaped guide plates 4 on both sides of the notches 5. The portion of the heating coil 6 perpendicular to the feeding direction of the feeding mechanism is arranged between two adjacent guide plates 4.

[0043] The coating generally uses UV adhesive. After the coating mechanism applies the coating, the adhesive will not dry. In order to prevent the liquid adhesive from dripping from the metal plate onto the heating coil 6 below and solidifying layer by layer on the outside of the pipe wall over a long period of time, thus reducing the heat conduction effect, a baffle 3 is set below the metal plate transport path. The baffle 3 is bent downward at the notch 5 and a guide plate 4 is set to protect the heating coil 6 and guide the flow of adhesive. This further effectively handles the downward flow of adhesive and protects the heating coil 6.

[0044] The bottom of the cabinet 1 is hollow and equipped with a connecting structure for the cabinet 1, which facilitates the installation of the cabinet 1 in the coating equipment and the combined installation of other coating supporting mechanisms. The bottom or underside of the cabinet 1 is reasonably equipped with a coating glue waste collection mechanism according to the objective requirements of the site.

[0045] In a specific implementation of this utility model, the metal sheet enters from one end of the cabinet 1 and begins the coating process. Inside the cabinet 1, it moves towards the other end outlet along a feeding mechanism composed of multiple rollers and other components. After the coating is completed, it arrives at the curing area. The heating coil 6 filled with hot water below emits sufficient heat to directly bake the metal sheet containing the coating and adhesive not far above. At the same time, the fan 25 above continuously delivers heat to the area around the metal sheet through the suction action, so that the metal coating material dries quickly and completely.

[0046] Before and after use, the device can also be operated by motor 9 to change the distance between the left and right rollers, and within a certain range, it can adapt to metal sheets of different widths for coating operations.

[0047] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
