[0002] Embossing rollers are key equipment components in the printing, packaging, and decoration industries. They are mainly used to press raised textures or specific patterns onto the surfaces of materials such as paper, plastic, leather, or metal foil to enhance the aesthetics and tactile feel of products. Their surfaces are typically precision-engraved or laser-processed to create various patterns or three-dimensional effects. The materials used are mostly high-hardness alloy steel, chrome-plated steel, or special rubber to ensure wear resistance and high-precision embossing.

[0003] During long-term use, especially in lamination, coating or offset printing processes, embossing rollers are prone to accumulating glue stains or resin residues on their surface. These stubborn stains can clog fine textures, affect the embossing effect, and even cause product defects.

[0004] How to design a surface cleaning and maintenance device for anilox film embossing roller to improve these problems has become an urgent issue for those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above deficiencies, this utility model provides a surface cleaning and maintenance device for anilox film embossing rollers, which aims to improve the problems mentioned in the background.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0024] Example, refer to Figures 1-6A surface cleaning and maintenance device for anilox film embossing roller includes a base 1, with multiple support frames 2 on the top of the base 1. An auxiliary shell 3 and an outer shell 4 are placed on top of the support frames 2, and the auxiliary shell 3 and the outer shell 4 are fixedly connected by snap-fits. A gearbox 101 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, and a pair of roller shafts 102 are rotatably connected to the gearbox 101. A motor 103 is fixedly connected to the gearbox 101. A pipe rack 5 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell 4, and a steam pipe 6 is connected to the pipe rack 5 and connected to an external steam generator. Two sets of jetting assemblies are provided on the pipe rack 5, and the two sets of jetting assemblies are connected to the two roller shafts 102. The jet assembly should include a hose 7 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the tube frame 5, a nozzle 8 fixedly connected to the end of the hose 7, a connecting rod 9 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the nozzle 8, a reciprocating frame 10 rotatably connected to the end of the connecting rod 9, a first support 11 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell 4, the first support 11 being slidably connected to the reciprocating frame 10, a transmission assembly provided inside the outer shell 4, the ends of two rollers 102 being connected by a pair of gears, and the output shaft of the motor 103 being connected to one of the rollers 102 by a belt. The jet assembly includes multiple nozzles 8, which are equidistantly arranged along the length of the tube frame 5.

[0025] The transmission assembly includes a drive shaft 15 rotatably connected to the outer casing 4, which is connected to an external drive assembly. A drive gear 14 is fixedly sleeved on the inner end of the drive shaft 15 within the outer casing 4. A driven gear 12 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the outer casing 4, meshing with the drive gear 14. A corrugated ring 13 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the driven gear 12, its side wall being corrugated and sliding against the end of the reciprocating frame 10. A transmission shaft 17 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the outer casing 4, and an auxiliary gear 16 is fixedly sleeved on the transmission shaft 17, meshing with the drive gear 14. A drive gear 16 is sleeved on the end of the transmission shaft 17. There is a roller 18, and an anti-slip sleeve 19 is fixedly fitted on the outer side wall of the roller 18. The outer side wall of the anti-slip sleeve 19 is in contact with the central axis of the roller shaft 102. A spring 21 is fixedly connected to the end of the reciprocating frame 10 away from the first support seat 11. The end of the spring 21 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the outer shell 4. A second support seat 20 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the outer shell 4. The second support seat 20 is slidably connected to the reciprocating frame 10. A negative pressure seat 22 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the auxiliary shell 3. The negative pressure seat 22 is provided with two sets of negative pressure ports 23. The two sets of negative pressure ports 23 are set close to the outer side wall of the roller shaft 102. The length of the negative pressure ports 23 is the same as the length of the roller shaft 102. The negative pressure seat 22 is connected to an external negative pressure device.

[0026] The working principle of the surface cleaning and maintenance equipment for anilox film embossing roller is as follows: When installing the equipment, first remove the belt connecting the roller shaft 102 and the motor 103 to ensure that the roller shaft 102 can rotate easily. Then, fasten the auxiliary shell 3 and the outer shell 4 together to wrap the roller shaft 102 that needs to be cleaned. Then, place the support frame 2 under the two shells for support.

[0027] Steam is injected into the inner side of the outer casing 4 through an external steam generator. The steam passes through the steam pipe 6, pipe rack 5, hose 7, and nozzle 8, and is sprayed onto the outer walls of the two rollers 102. At this time, the external drive assembly drives the drive shaft 15 to rotate, which in turn drives the drive gear 14 to rotate. Through meshing with the auxiliary gear 16, the drive shaft 17 rotates, which in turn drives the roller 18 to rotate. The roller 18 rotates the central axis of the roller 102 through friction with the anti-slip sleeve 19. The two rollers 102 rotate through the meshing gears. The adhesive residue and other residues on the rotating rollers 102 soften and are easy to fall off after being heated by the high-temperature steam.

[0028] In the above process, the rotation of the driving gear 14 also drives the bellows ring 13 to rotate through meshing with the driven gear 12. When the bellows ring 13 rotates, it drives the reciprocating frame 10 to reciprocate through its corrugated sidewall. Specifically, the spring 21 at one end of the reciprocating frame 10 pushes the other end of the reciprocating frame 10 against the corrugated sidewall of the bellows ring 13. When the bellows ring 13 rotates, the corrugated sidewall slides relative to the end of the reciprocating frame 10. The higher position of the corrugated sidewall pushes the reciprocating frame 10 to compress the spring 21, and the reaction force of the spring 21 pushes the reciprocating frame 10 to reciprocate. The reciprocating frame 10 moves to a lower position on the corrugated sidewall. As the corrugated ring 13 continues to rotate, the reciprocating frame 10 moves back and forth. When the reciprocating frame 10 moves back and forth, it drives the ends of multiple nozzles 8 to move back and forth. Specifically, the reciprocating frame 10 drives the connecting rod 9 to move back and forth, and the connecting rod 9 drives the nozzles 8 to move. The hose 7 on the nozzle 8 elastically deforms, and the nozzle 8 rotates relative to the connecting rod 9, so that the nozzle 8 swings in a fan-shaped path, so that the surface of the roller 102 is more evenly contacted with high-temperature steam, which is conducive to the removal of dirt such as adhesive residue from its surface.

[0029] Finally, air is drawn out by an external negative pressure device. The airflow passes through the gap between the negative pressure port 23 and the roller 102 and enters the negative pressure seat 22. The high-speed airflow passes through the softened glue stains and other foreign objects on the surface of the roller 102, causing the roller 102 to separate from the glue stains and other foreign objects, thus completing the cleaning of the roller 102 and restoring the performance of the roller 102.

[0030] It should be noted that the specific model and specifications of the motor need to be selected and determined based on the actual specifications of the device. The specific selection and calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0031] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
