Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of CTP plate technology, and in particular relates to a sealing device for a wash-free CTP plate. Background Technology
[0002] No-wash CTP plate sealing equipment is an important piece of equipment in the printing plate-making process. It is mainly used to seal the micropores on the CTP plate surface after development, thereby improving the plate's durability and anti-fouling properties. This equipment seals the micropores through chemical or physical methods and then directly dries and cures them, eliminating the traditional water washing step and achieving a more environmentally friendly and efficient production process. Its core functions include enhancing the printing plate's durability (up to 100,000 impressions or more), resistance to background graying, and oxidation resistance, while reducing wastewater discharge and meeting green printing standards. However, no-wash CTP plate sealing equipment still has the following drawbacks in practical use:
[0003] During the operation of the no-wash CTP plate sealing equipment, CTP plates need to be placed on the sealing equipment one by one for sealing, and then removed one by one for drying and curing. However, as the work progresses, placing CTP plates one by one and removing them is tedious and inefficient.
[0004] Secondly, after the CTP plate is sealed with adhesive, it needs to be dried using drying equipment. During the drying process, operators or robots are needed to transport the CTP plate, which is inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a sealing device for no-wash CTP plates. By setting up a transport component, a transfer chamber and a fixing frame, it solves the problems that the sealing operation of no-wash CTP plates is cumbersome, the work efficiency is not high, and the operation of transporting the sealed structure to the curing equipment after sealing is not convenient.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model relates to a sealing device for a no-wash CTP plate, comprising a conveying component, a transfer chamber, and a fixing frame. The conveying component includes a support plate and electric rollers. Two support plates are parallel to each other, and several parallel electric rollers are rotatably connected between the two support plates. Side plates are fixed to the opposite sides of the two support plates. A transfer chamber is fixed to the upper part between the two side plates. A fixing frame is provided on one side of the transfer chamber, and a heating component is fixed inside the fixing frame. During operation, the CTP plate is conveyed in a continuous flow by the conveying component, allowing the CTP plate to flow through the transfer chamber and below the fixing frame. This allows the CTP plate to be first coated with adhesive and sealed, and then dried by the heating component through the air passing through the fixing frame.
[0008] Furthermore, the conveying assembly also includes a limiting plate and a CTP plate. The limiting plate is fixed at the two end edges of the three electric rollers near each end of the support plate. Several CTP plates are arranged on the upper part of the electric rollers between the support plates. When the electric rollers rotate, the conveying of the CTP plates is restricted by the limiting plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the top of the transfer chamber is fixedly connected to a glue delivery pipe, the bottom of the transfer chamber is fixedly connected to a collection hopper, and the bottom of the collection hopper is fixedly connected to an output chamber. The glue delivery pipe on the transfer chamber delivers glue into it, and the glue is collected and delivered to the output chamber through the collection hopper.
[0010] Furthermore, a glue-applying sponge is fixed to the bottom of the output chamber, and a glue outlet is provided at the bottom of the output chamber along the center line parallel to the long side. The glue-applying sponge on the output chamber evenly coats the glue liquid output from the output chamber through the glue outlet onto the CTP plate body.
[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the fixed frame is symmetrically fixed with upright plates, and the two upright plates are respectively fixed on the top of the two support plates. The upright plates on the fixed frame support the two support plates on top.
[0012] Furthermore, a hair dryer is fixed to the top of the fixed frame, and the output end of the hair dryer is shortly connected to the fixed frame. The hair dryer on the fixed frame blows air onto the heating element inside the hair dryer.
[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] This invention solves the problem of cumbersome and inefficient sealing operations in no-wash CTP plate sealing equipment by setting up a conveying component and a transfer chamber. The conveying component, including an electric roller, places the CTP plate on the roller away from the fixed frame. The plate is then positioned by a limiting plate on the roller and conveyed between the two side plates. As the CTP plate passes under the transfer chamber, the adhesive in the transfer chamber is collected by a hopper and conveyed to the output chamber. The adhesive is then discharged through the outlet onto a brushing sponge, which applies it to the CTP plate between the two support plates, thus sealing the CTP plate. This streamlined sealing process significantly improves efficiency.
[0015] This invention solves the problem of inconvenient operation in transporting the CTP plate from the sealing structure to the curing equipment after sealing by setting up a transport component and a fixing frame. After the CTP plate is sealed with adhesive, it is transported between two upright plates. While the CTP plate is passing between the two upright plates, the blower and the heating component of the fixing frame are constantly working. The blower draws air from the outside and then delivers it to the heating component in the fixing frame. The heat generated by the heating component is blown onto the CTP plate to heat it and quickly blow away some of the adhesive solvent on the CTP plate for drying and curing. This makes the operation of transporting the CTP plate from the sealing structure to the curing equipment after sealing much more convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Specific Implementation Example 1
[0025] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model relates to a sealing device for a no-wash CTP plate, comprising a conveying component 1, a transfer chamber 2, and a fixing frame 3. The conveying component 1 includes a support plate 101 and electric rollers 102. The conveying component 1 conveys the CTP plate body 104 to be sealed. Two support plates 101 are parallel to each other, and several parallel electric rollers 102 are rotatably connected between the two support plates 101. The support plates 101 support the electric rollers 102, the transfer chamber 2, the fixing frame 3, and other auxiliary structures on the working plane. All the electric rollers 102 move in the same direction, and the surface of the electric rollers 102 is made of rubber. The CTP plate 104 is covered with an outer layer of adhesive. After the electric roller 102 is started, it drives the CTP plate 104 to move toward the fixed frame 3. Side plates 201 are fixed on the opposite sides of the two support plates 101. The transfer chamber 2 is mounted on the side plates 201. The upper part between the two side plates 201 is fixed together with the transfer chamber 2. The transfer chamber 2 is used to transfer materials. The fixed frame 3 is set on one side of the transfer chamber 2. The heating component 301 is fixed in the fixed frame 3. The heating component 301 is fixed in the fixed frame 3. When the air passes through the heating component 301, it is heated and dries the adhesive on the surface of the CTP plate 104.
[0026] Specifically, the conveying component 1 also includes a limiting plate 103 and a CTP plate 104. The limiting plate 103 is fixed at the two end edges of the three electric rollers 102 near each end of the support plate 101. Several CTP plates 104 are arranged on the upper part of the electric rollers 102 between the support plates 101. When the electric rollers 102 rotate, the CTP plates 104 that need to be sealed are placed on the electric rollers 102 away from the fixed frame 3, and the CTP plates 104 are conveyed between the two side plates 201.
[0027] Furthermore, the top of the transfer chamber 2 is fixedly connected to a glue delivery pipe 206, the bottom of the transfer chamber 2 is fixedly connected to a central hopper 202, and the bottom of the central hopper 202 is fixedly connected to an output chamber 203. The top of the glue delivery pipe 206 on the transfer chamber 2 is connected to the equipment for conveying glue, so that the glue is delivered to the transfer chamber 2 and then concentrated and delivered to the output chamber 203 through the central hopper 202.
[0028] Furthermore, a glue-applying sponge 205 is fixed at the bottom of the output chamber 203. A glue outlet 204 is provided at the bottom of the output chamber 203 along the center line parallel to the long side. During operation, the glue entering the output chamber 203 is transported to the glue-applying sponge 205 through the glue outlet 204. After being received by the glue-applying sponge 205, it is brushed onto the CTP plate 104 that passes on the electric roller 102.
[0029] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: During operation, the electric roller 102 included in the conveying component 1 is started, and the CTP plate 104 is placed on the electric roller 102 away from the fixed frame 3. After the position is restricted by the limiting plate 103 on the electric roller 102, it moves between the two side plates 201 as the electric roller 102 conveys it. When the CTP plate 104 passes under the transfer chamber 2, the adhesive in the transfer chamber 2 is collected by the concentration hopper 202 and then conveyed to the output chamber 203. It is output to the glue sponge 205 through the glue outlet 204 on the output chamber 203. The glue sponge 205 evenly spreads the adhesive on the surface of the CTP plate 104 between the support plates 101, and performs a sealing treatment on the CTP plate 104. This allows the sealing treatment of the CTP plate 104 to be carried out in a streamlined manner, resulting in higher processing efficiency. Specific Implementation Example 2
[0030] Please see Figure 1 , 2 4, 5. Based on the first specific embodiment, the bottom of the fixed frame 3 is symmetrically fixed with upright plates 302. The two upright plates 302 are respectively fixed on the top of the two support plates 101. The upright plates 302 at the bottom of the fixed frame 3 support the fixed frame 3 on the two support plates 101.
[0031] Specifically, a hair dryer 4 is fixed to the top of the fixed frame 3. The output end of the hair dryer 4 is shortly connected to the fixed frame 3. The hair dryer 4 blows air into the heating component 301 inside the fixed frame 3.
[0032] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: During operation, after the CTP plate 104 passes through the adhesive sealing hole, it is transported between the two upright plates 302. While the CTP plate 104 passes between the two upright plates 302, the blower 4 and the heating component 301 of the fixing frame 3 are constantly working. The blower draws air from the outside and then transports it to the heating component 301 in the fixing frame 3. The heat generated by the heating component 301 is blown onto the CTP plate 104 to heat the CTP plate 104 and quickly blows off a portion of the adhesive solvent on the CTP plate 104, thereby accelerating the curing speed of the sealing adhesive on the CTP plate 104.
