[0045] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The water outlet mechanism 5 includes a water tank 501. The bottom of the water tank 501 is located at the bottom right end of the inner side of the fixed frame 1. A water inlet pipe 502 is connected to the top right side of the water tank 501 for the entry of cleaning water. A water outlet pipe 503 is connected to the top front side of the water tank 501. A water pump 504 is fixedly connected to the front end of the bottom inner side of the fixed frame 1. The bottom end of the water outlet pipe 503 is connected to the water pump 504, which can pump out the water inside the water tank 501. A water delivery pipe 505 is connected to the left side of the water pump 504. The water pump 504 then sprays water into the interior of the mixing box 3 through the water delivery pipe 505. Then, the stirring blade 406 rotates to clean the interior of the mixing box 3. The ink outlet assembly 206 includes multiple ink delivery components. The bottom of the outer wall of multiple ink supply tubes 2061 is connected to the top of the ink outlet valve 201. Multiple ink storage tanks 2062 are fixedly connected to the top of the mounting bracket 1. The bottom of each ink storage tank 2062 is connected to the top of the ink supply tube 2061. The ink storage tanks 2062 flow into the metering pump 202 through the ink supply tube 2061 and the ink outlet valve 201. The water outlet mechanism 5 also includes a weight detector 506. The bottom of the weight detector 506 is fixedly connected to the bottom right end of the inner side of the mounting bracket 1. An alarm light 507 is fixedly connected to the top of the water tank 501. When there is no water in the water tank 501, the weight detector 506 detects that the weight has reached the warning value, and the alarm light 507 sounds an alarm.

[0046] Specifically, the water tank 501 is located at the bottom right end of the inner side of the fixed frame 1. The water inlet pipe 502 on the top right side of the water tank 501 is equipped with a quick-connect connector, which can quickly connect to an external water source. The water outlet pipe 503 on the top front side is arranged at an angle downwards to facilitate the drainage of water accumulated in the water tank 501. The water outlet pipe 503 is connected to the water pump 504, which can adjust the water flow intensity according to the cleaning requirements. The water delivery pipe 505 extends from the left side of the water pump 504 and is equipped with a fan-shaped nozzle at the end to ensure that the cleaning water can evenly cover the inner wall of the mixing tank 3 and the surface of the stirring blade 406. When the cleaning program is started, the water pump 504 sprays the water in the water tank 501 into the mixing tank 3 at high speed through the water delivery pipe 505, which, together with the rotation of the stirring blade 406, stirs the water. This creates a powerful flush, achieving thorough cleaning. The bottoms of multiple ink supply tubes 2061 are connected to the top of the ink outlet valve 201. The ink storage tanks 2062 are neatly arranged on the top of the mounting frame 1, with a conical design. A pneumatic shut-off valve is installed between the ink storage tanks 2062 and the ink supply tubes 2061. When the system receives an ink dispensing command, the valve automatically opens. Under the combined action of gravity and air pressure, the ink is precisely delivered through the ink outlet valve 201 and the metering pump 202. A weight detector 506 is fixed to the bottom of the inner side of the mounting frame 1 to continuously monitor the weight change of the water tank 501. When the water level in the water tank 501 drops to a preset threshold, the weight detector 506 immediately triggers a signal, and the alarm light 507 on the top flashes red and is accompanied by a buzzer to ensure timely water replenishment.

[0047] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The ink dispensing assembly 206 also includes retaining rings 2063. The interiors of multiple retaining rings 2063 are all fixedly connected to the outer wall of the ink reservoir 2062. Support rods 2064 are fixedly connected to the bottom of each retaining ring 2063. The bottom ends of multiple support rods 2064 are fixedly connected to the top of the mounting bracket 1 to fix the position of the ink reservoir 2062. The ink dispensing assembly 206 also includes multiple hinges 2065. The bottom front sides of multiple hinges 2065 are fixedly connected to the rear top of the ink reservoir 2062, and the top front sides of multiple hinges 2065 are fixedly connected to... There is a cover plate 2066, which is opened and closed by a hinge 2065. The front top of multiple ink supply tubes 2061 is fixedly connected to a buckle retainer 2067. The front of multiple cover plates 2066 is fixedly connected to a tube clamp 2068. The buckle retainer 2067 fastens the tube clamp 2068 to prevent the cover plate 2066 from opening accidentally. The water outlet mechanism 5 also includes a fixing rod 508. The rear side of the fixing rod 508 is fixedly connected to the front middle of the water tank 501. The front side of the fixing rod 508 is fixedly connected to a ring 509 for fixing the position of the water outlet pipe 503.

[0048] Specifically, multiple ink storage tanks 2062 are surrounded by a fixing ring 2063 welded around their outer sides, providing stable lateral support for the ink storage tanks 2062. Each fixing ring 2063 has multiple support rods 2064 vertically welded to its bottom, and the multiple support rods 2064 are fixed to the top of the fixing frame 1. A hinge 2065 is installed on the rear side of the top of the ink storage tank 2062, and the cover plate 2066 can be opened and closed through the hinge 2065 for easy feeding. The pipe clamp 2068 at the front end of the cover plate 2066 and the buckle fixing device 2067 on the ink supply pipe 2061 form a double locking structure. When the pipe clamp 2068 is inserted, it automatically locks, effectively preventing the cover plate 2066 from being accidentally opened due to equipment vibration. A fixing rod 508 is fixed in the middle of the front side of the water tank 501 and is firmly connected to the side wall of the water tank 501 by welding. A ring 509 is fixed at the front end of the fixing rod 508, and the inner diameter of the ring precisely matches the outer diameter of the water supply pipe 503 to form a tight fit constraint.

[0049] Working principle: When ink needs to be added, the clamp 2068 is released from the fastener 2067. The cover 2066 of the ink tank 2062 opens and closes for feeding under the action of the hinge 2065. Under the combined action of gravity and air pressure, the ink in the ink tank 2062 is fed into the ink tank. When the system receives the ink dispensing command, the pneumatic shut-off valve opens, and the ink flows into the ink dispensing valve 201 through the ink supply pipe 2061. The metering pump 202, connected by a quick-release flange, uses a built-in high-precision plunger pump core to output ink with minimal error accuracy. The ink is then transported through the ink delivery pipe 203. Along the way, the flow sensor 204 monitors the flow rate and cumulative flow in real time and feeds the data back to the control system to achieve dynamic closed-loop adjustment with the metering pump 202, ensuring accurate quantitative ink dispensing. Subsequently, the ink enters the mixing box 3 and is dispensed by the mounting bracket 401. Driven by the top motor 402, the intermediate rotating rod 403, connected by a key, drives the gear 404 and the synchronous belt pulley 405 to drive the multiple rotating rods 403 to operate synchronously. The stirring blades 406 on the rotating rods 403 generate radial and axial mixing flow fields to achieve uniform mixing of the ink. The mixed ink flows out from the ink outlet pipe 205. When cleaning is required, the water in the water tank 501 is replenished through the water inlet pipe 502, and the water outlet pipe 503 delivers the water to the water pump 504. The water pump 504 adjusts the water flow intensity according to the cleaning requirements and sprays the water into the mixing box 3 through the fan-shaped nozzle at the end of the water supply pipe 505. The rotation of the stirring blades 406 forms a strong scouring effect. The weight detector 506 inside the fixed frame 1 continuously monitors the weight of the water tank 501. When the water level drops to a preset threshold, the alarm light 507 flashes to alarm.
