[0002] In the double-sided printing process, after the printing press has printed the front side, the functions of the winding mechanism and the unwinding mechanism are switched, and the printing roller needs to be reversed to adapt to the change in the film feeding direction. At present, servo motors are mostly used to achieve forward and reverse rotation, which is costly. A low-cost reversing structure is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: This printing plate roller reversing device includes a frame, on which a gear assembly is provided. The gear assembly includes a driven gear and a driving gear. The driven gear drives the printing plate roller, and the driving gear is connected to a power source. The gear assembly further includes a first gear and a reversing gear set. The first gear has a working position and a standby position. The first gear is mounted on a first shaft and moves between the working position and the standby position along the axial direction of the first shaft. When the first gear is in the working position, it engages the driving gear and the driven gear. The reversing gear set includes a third gear and a second gear. The second gear has a working position and a standby position and is mounted on a second shaft. The second gear moves between the working position and the standby position along the axial direction of the second shaft. When the second gear is in the working position, the third gear meshes with the second gear, and the reversing gear set engages the driving gear and the driven gear.
[0005] In this scheme, the two meshing gears rotate in opposite directions.

[0016] Preferably, the outer ring of the clutch gear is provided with a drive groove and an external gear ring in sequence along the spline shaft. A slider is slidably fitted in the drive groove. The slider is connected to one end of the driven rocker arm. The other end of the driven rocker arm is connected to a rotating shaft.

[0035] See appendix Figure 1-6 In one embodiment of this invention, a printing plate roller reversing device includes a frame 1, on which a gear assembly 2 is provided. The gear assembly 2 includes a driven gear 3 and a driving gear 5. The driven gear 3 is used to drive the printing plate roller, and the driving gear 5 is connected to a power source for transmission.
[0036] The gear assembly 2 further includes a first gear 6 and a reversing gear set 7. The first gear 6 has a working position and a standby position. The first gear 6 is disposed on a first shaft 4 and moves between the working position and the standby position along the axial direction of the first shaft 4. When the first gear 6 is in the working position, the first gear 6 engages the driving gear 5 and the driven gear 3. The reversing gear set 7 includes a third gear 8 and a second gear 9. The second gear 9 has a working position and a standby position. The second gear 9 is disposed on a second shaft 10 and moves between the working position and the standby position along the axial direction of the second shaft 10. When the second gear 9 is in the working position, the third gear 8 meshes with the second gear 9 and the reversing gear set 7 engages the driving gear 5 and the driven gear 3.
[0037] Both the first shaft 4 and the second shaft 10 are connected to the reversing cylinder 11 for transmission. During operation, the first gear 6 or the second gear 9 is in the working position. The frame 1 is provided with a first guide hole 12 and a second guide hole 13, which allow the first shaft 4 and the second shaft 10 to extend into, respectively. The frame 1 is provided with a housing 14, and the reversing cylinder 11 is mounted on the housing 14. The housing 14 and the frame 1 form a protective cavity, and the gear assembly 2 is located inside the housing 14.
[0038] The drive gear 5 is connected to the splined shaft 15. The splined shaft 15 is fitted with a clutch gear 16, which has an external gear ring 17. A first helical gear 18 is sleeved on the splined shaft 15. The first helical gear 18 meshes with a second helical gear 19, which is connected to the power source. The inner ring of the helical gear has an internal gear ring 20 and an inner ring 13 in sequence. The inner ring 13 meshes with the splined shaft 15. The clutch gear 16 has a working position and a standby position. The clutch gear 16 moves along the axial direction of the splined shaft 15 between the working position and the standby position. When the clutch gear 16 is in the working position, the external gear ring 17 meshes with the internal gear ring 20.
[0039] The outer ring of the clutch gear 16 is provided with a drive groove 23 and an external gear ring 17 in sequence along the axial direction of the spline shaft 15. The drive groove 23 is slidably fitted with a slider 24. The slider 24 is connected to one end of the driven swing arm 25. The other end of the driven swing arm 25 is connected to the rotating shaft 26. The rotating shaft 26 is rotatably disposed and is connected to an active swing arm 27. The active swing arm 27 is hinged to the output shaft of the clutch cylinder 28. The frame 1 is also provided with a protective shell 29. The clutch cylinder 28 is mounted on the protective shell 29. The rotating shaft 26 is rotatably disposed on the protective shell 29. The clutch gear 16, the first helical gear 18 and the second helical gear 19 are located inside the protective shell 29.
[0040] In this embodiment, during reversal, the clutch cylinder 28 drives the rotating shaft 26 to rotate via the active swing arm 27. The rotating shaft 26 drives the driven swing arm 25 to swing. The driven swing arm 25 drives the clutch gear 16 to move axially along the spline shaft 15 through the sliding engagement of the slider 24 (specifically a bearing) and the drive groove 23. The clutch gear 16 separates from the first helical gear 18, the spline shaft 15 stops rotating, and the first gear 6, which participates in the transmission of the active gear 5 and the driven gear 3, stops. The reversing cylinder 11 drives the first shaft 4 to retract, causing the first gear 6 to reach the standby position. The second gear 9 is then rotated. The teeth of the first gear 17 are misaligned with the teeth of the third gear 8 to mesh smoothly. Another reversing cylinder 11 drives the second shaft 10 to extend and drive the second gear 9 to the working position. The corresponding guide hole can not only guide the extension and retraction of the corresponding shaft, but also support the corresponding shaft to ensure the stability of the shaft during transmission. The specific location of the power source is not limited, and the layout of the power source is a mature technology. The inner ring 13 slides with the spline shaft 15, and the inner ring abuts against the spline shaft 15 to obtain support. When the clutch gear 16 returns to the working position, it must first misalign the outer gear ring 17 with the inner gear ring 20 of the first helical gear 18.
[0041] In other alternative implementations, the position of the corresponding gear on the corresponding shaft can also be adjusted manually.
[0042] See appendix Figure 7 The frame 1 is provided with a sliding sleeve 30, which is connected to a top plate cylinder 31. The driven gear 3 meshes with a transmission gear 32, which is connected to a top plate shaft 33. One end of the top plate shaft 33 is provided with a cone head 34, and the other end of the top plate shaft 33 extends into the sliding sleeve 30. The other end of the top plate shaft 33 is connected to a drive block 35, which is connected to the top plate cylinder 31 and slides with the sliding sleeve 30.
[0043] In this embodiment, the top plate cylinder 31 drives the top plate shaft 33 to move axially through the drive block 35, the cone head 34 presses against the end of the plate roller, and the top plate shaft 33 is connected to the driven gear 3 through the transmission gear 32, increasing the distance with the reversing cylinder 11 and avoiding interference.
[0044] The above description represents the preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. For those skilled in the art, various improvements, modifications, or equivalent substitutions can be made without departing from the equivalent inventive concept disclosed in this utility model, and these can also be considered as part of the scope of protection of this utility model.
