[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ink mixing technology, and specifically discloses a printing ink mixing and blending device. Background Technology
[0002] Ink is a homogeneous mixture composed of colorants, binders, fillers, and additives. It is a colored, fluid, paste-like adhesive that can be printed and dries on the substrate. Therefore, color, body, and drying performance are the three most important properties of ink. There are many types of ink, each with different physical properties; some are very thick and viscous, while others are quite thin. Some use vegetable oil as a binder, while others use resin and solvents or water. Before use, ink needs to be mixed and blended thoroughly.
[0003] In existing printing ink mixing and blending devices, after the ink is mixed and discharged, some ink adheres to the inner wall of the device, which needs to be cleaned. Currently, the cleaning of the inside of the mixing device is mostly done manually by holding a high-pressure nozzle. The cleaning process is cumbersome and inefficient, which seriously affects the ink mixing efficiency. At the same time, manual cleaning increases the labor burden of workers and is inconvenient to use. Summary of the Invention

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments to aid in understanding its content. Unless otherwise specified, the methods used in this invention are conventional methods; the raw materials and apparatus used, unless otherwise specified, are conventional commercially available products.
[0022] Please refer to Figures 1-3. A printing ink mixing and blending device includes a mixing outer cylinder 1, and the mixing outer cylinder 1 is provided with a mixing mechanism and a cleaning mechanism.
[0023] The mixing mechanism includes a rotating cylinder 2 rotatably connected to the upper end face of the inner side of the mixing outer cylinder 1, and a plurality of uniformly distributed stirring blades 3 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating cylinder 2.
[0024] The cleaning mechanism includes a dispersion tube 4 slidably connected inside the rotating drum 2. The outer wall of the rotating drum 2 is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed first notches 5. The outer wall of the dispersion tube 4 is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed first spray holes 6 that are respectively matched with the plurality of first notches 5. The upper end face of the mixing outer drum 1 is provided with an annular groove 7. The interior of the annular groove 7 is slidably connected with a vertical drum 8. The upper end of the vertical drum 8 extends above the mixing outer drum 1. The interior of the vertical drum 8 is provided with a dispersion chamber 9. The inner wall of the mixing outer drum 1 is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed second notches 10. The inner wall of the vertical drum 8 is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed second spray holes 11 that are respectively matched with the plurality of second notches 10.
[0025] In this embodiment: when cleaning the mixing outer cylinder 1, an external high-pressure water pipe is connected to the inlet water pipe 15, and then high-pressure water is supplied to the dispersion pipe 4 through the external high-pressure water pipe and the inlet water pipe 15. At the same time, high-pressure water is supplied to the dispersion chamber 9 through two delivery pipes 16. When the high-pressure water fills the dispersion chamber 9 and the dispersion pipe 4, the weight of the dispersion pipe 4 and the vertical cylinder 8 is greater than the elastic force of the multiple springs 17. Then, the dispersion pipe 4 and the vertical cylinder 8 move downwards under their own weight, so that the multiple first spray holes 6 and the multiple second spray holes 11 are connected to the multiple first notches 5 and the multiple second notches 10 respectively. By misaligning the spray holes and notches, It can prevent ink from entering the nozzles and clogging them during the mixing process. Then, high-pressure water from the dispersion chamber 9 and dispersion tube 4 is sprayed out through multiple first nozzles 6 and multiple second nozzles 11. At the same time, the rotating drum 2 continues to rotate. Since the dispersion tube 4 is designed with a pentagonal structure and the inner wall of the rotating drum 2 matches the dispersion tube 4, the rotating drum 2 can drive the dispersion tube 4 to rotate. The high-pressure water sprayed through multiple first nozzles 6 and multiple second nozzles 11 can quickly and easily clean the inside of the mixing outer drum 1, avoiding affecting the ink mixing efficiency. The automatic cleaning can effectively reduce the labor burden of the staff and is easy to use.
[0026] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the upper end of the rotating drum 2 extends above the mixing outer drum 1, and a first gear 12 is fixedly connected to the outer wall. A drive motor 13 is installed on the upper end face of the mixing outer drum 1, and a second gear 20 that meshes with the first gear 12 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 13.
[0027] In this embodiment: the drive motor 13 is started, the drive motor 13 drives the second gear 20 to rotate, and the second gear 20 cooperates with the first gear 12 to drive the rotating drum 2 to rotate.
[0028] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the upper end of the dispersion tube 4 extends to the top of the rotating drum 2 and is connected to a rotating joint 14. The upper end of the rotating joint 14 is connected to a water inlet pipe 15. The water inlet pipe 15 and the dispersion chamber 9 are connected by two symmetrically distributed conveying pipes 16.
[0029] In this embodiment: while the high-pressure water can be delivered into the dispersion tube 4 through the rotating joint 14, the dispersion tube 4 can be rotated, and high-pressure water can be delivered into the dispersion chamber 9 through the two delivery pipes 16.
[0030] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a plurality of evenly distributed springs 17 are fixedly connected between the lower end face of the vertical cylinder 8 and the lower end of the inner side of the annular groove 7.
[0031] In this embodiment, the vertical cylinder 8 and the dispersion tube 4 can be pushed upward by multiple springs 17.
[0032] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the inner wall of the mixing outer cylinder 1 is coated with a corrosion-resistant coating made of polytetrafluoroethylene.
[0033] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the mixing outer cylinder 1 is coated with a corrosion-resistant coating made of polytetrafluoroethylene, which can prevent the ink from corroding the inner wall of the mixing outer cylinder 1 and effectively increase the service life of the inner wall of the mixing outer cylinder 1.
[0034] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the lower end face of the mixing outer cylinder 1 is connected to a discharge pipe 18, and a valve is installed on the outer wall of the discharge pipe 18.
[0035] In this embodiment: the mixed ink can be discharged through the discharge pipe 18, and the discharge pipe 18 can be blocked through the valve.
[0036] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the upper end face of the mixing outer cylinder 1 is connected to the feeding pipe 19, and the upper end of the feeding pipe 19 extends to the top of the vertical cylinder 8.
[0037] In this embodiment, ink is easily added to the mixing outer cylinder 1 through the feed pipe 19.
[0038] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: When in use, ink is added into the mixing outer cylinder 1 through the feeding pipe 19, and then the drive motor 13 is started. The drive motor 13 drives the second gear 20 to rotate. The second gear 20, in conjunction with the first gear 12, drives the rotating drum 2 to rotate. The rotating drum 2 drives multiple stirring blades 3 to rotate, thereby stirring and mixing the ink. After the mixing is completed, the ink is discharged through the discharge pipe 18.
[0039] When cleaning the mixing outer cylinder 1, the external high-pressure water pipe is connected to the inlet water pipe 15, and then high-pressure water is delivered to the dispersion pipe 4 through the external high-pressure water pipe and the inlet water pipe 15. At the same time, high-pressure water is delivered to the dispersion chamber 9 through two delivery pipes 16. Then, the dispersion pipe 4 and the vertical cylinder 8 move downward by their own gravity, so that multiple first spray holes 6 and multiple second spray holes 11 are connected to multiple first gaps 5 and multiple second gaps 10 respectively. Then, the high-pressure water in the dispersion chamber 9 and the dispersion pipe 4 is sprayed out through the multiple first spray holes 6 and multiple second spray holes 11. At the same time, the rotating cylinder 2 continues to rotate, and the high-pressure water sprayed out through the multiple first spray holes 6 and multiple second spray holes 11 can quickly and easily clean the mixing outer cylinder 1.
