[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] An adjustable speed UV roll unwinding mechanism includes an unwinding shaft for processing UV rolls for printing and a base, wherein fixed supports and adjustable supports are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the bottom of the unwinding shaft.

[0031] Adjustable speed UV roll unwinding mechanism, such as Figures 1-3As shown, the assembly includes an unwinding shaft 10 and a base 40 for processing UV roll-to-roll materials for printing. The unwinding shaft 10 has a fixed bracket 20 and an adjustable bracket 30 symmetrically arranged at both ends of its bottom. The unwinding shaft 10 has coaxial insertion slots 11 at both ends. A first bearing 23 at the same horizontal height is mounted on the fixed bracket 20 and the adjustable bracket 30. A first servo motor 22 with adjustable speed is mounted on the outer wall of the fixed bracket 20. An insertion connector 24, matching the cross-sectional dimensions of the insertion slot 11, is coaxially mounted in the inner ring of the first bearing 23. A sliding seat 31 is mounted at the bottom of the adjustable bracket 30. A sliding groove 41, matching the cross-sectional dimensions of the sliding seat 31, is opened on the top surface of the base 40. An adjusting screw 43 is installed in the sliding groove 41, and the adjusting screw 43 is threadedly connected to the sliding seat 31. A housing is mounted at one end of the base 40. 42. A second servo motor 44, coaxially connected to the adjusting screw 43, is installed inside the housing 42. Through the unwinding shaft 10 and its two end slots 11, in conjunction with the first bearing 23 and connector 24 on the fixed bracket 20 and the adjustable bracket 30, stable support and coaxial rotation of the UV roll material are achieved. The adjustable-speed first servo motor 22 installed on the fixed bracket 20 drives the connector 24 to rotate the unwinding shaft 10, thereby controlling the unwinding speed of the UV roll material. Through the adjustable bracket 30 and its bottom sliding seat 31, which slides in the moving groove 41 of the base 40, and combined with the threaded connection between the adjusting screw 43 and the sliding seat 31, and the second servo motor 44 inside the housing 42 driving the adjusting screw 43 to rotate, the spacing between the support points at both ends of the unwinding shaft 10 is adjusted, thereby adapting to the unwinding requirements of UV roll materials of different widths.

[0032] It is worth noting that the cross-sections of both the socket 11 and the connector 24 are square or equilateral triangles, which allows the connector 24 to be securely inserted into the socket 11 and not easily loosened or detached.

[0033] Furthermore, a support base 21 for fixing the first servo motor 22 is vertically installed on the outer wall of the fixed bracket 20, so that the first servo motor 22 can be stably installed on the outer wall of the fixed bracket 20.

[0034] The sliding seat 31 and the moving slide 41 are both isosceles trapezoids in cross section, which allows the sliding seat 31 to slide smoothly in the moving slide 41 without easily getting stuck or deviating. The isosceles trapezoidal cross section shape also gives the sliding seat 31 better guidance and anti-tipping ability during movement.

[0035] Specifically, a second bearing 45 for fixing the adjusting screw 43 is also installed on the base 40, so that the adjusting screw 43 can be stably installed on the base 40. The installation of the second bearing 45 also facilitates the threaded connection and adjustment operation between the adjusting screw 43 and the sliding seat 31, thereby improving the adjustment efficiency and reliability of the entire unwinding mechanism.

[0036] In addition, the bottom of the base 40 is symmetrically provided with synchronously operating lifting cylinders 50 at both ends. The top of the piston rod 51 of the lifting cylinder 50 is connected to the bottom of the base 40, so that the base 40 can be raised and lowered as needed, making it convenient for users to adjust the height of the unwinding roller 10 according to actual needs.

[0037] It is worth noting that a fixed chassis 52 is coaxially mounted on the bottom of the lifting cylinder 50, which allows the lifting cylinder 50 to be stably installed on the ground or other fixed platforms.

[0038] The working principle of this adjustable speed UV roll unwinding mechanism:

[0039] First, install the UV roll material onto the unwinding shaft 10, ensuring that one end of the roll material is tightly fitted to the unwinding shaft 10. Then, by adjusting the position of the sliding seat 31 on the adjustable bracket 30 within the moving groove 41, and in conjunction with the second servo motor 44 driving the adjusting screw 43 to rotate, adjust the spacing between the support points at both ends of the unwinding shaft 10 to accommodate UV roll materials of different widths.

[0040] Next, the first servo motor 22 on the fixed bracket 20 is started. It is securely mounted on the support base 21 and drives the connector 24 to rotate coaxially with the unwinding shaft 10, thereby starting the unwinding of the UV roll material. The adjustable speed characteristic of the first servo motor 22 allows users to adjust the unwinding speed according to actual needs.

[0041] During the unwinding process, the user can observe the unwinding of the roll material and adjust the lifting cylinder 50 as needed. The height is adjusted via the piston rod 51 connected to the base 40, ensuring the roll material is unwound smoothly and continuously. The fixed chassis 52 ensures the lifting cylinder 50 is securely installed and provides stable support.

[0042] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
