Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of printing equipment technology, specifically to a device for preventing edge curling and smoothing in book and magazine roll paper printing. Background Technology

[0002] In the printing process of book and magazine rolls, the paper unfolds from the roll and passes through the printing unit for printing. Due to the inherent elasticity and stress of the paper, curling is prone to occur under the influence of high-speed operation and the wetting of ink. Curling not only affects print quality, leading to uneven ink application and image distortion, but can also cause paper jams, machine downtime, and other malfunctions during printing, reducing production efficiency.

[0003] Curling edges not only affect the appearance of books and periodicals, causing uneven and curled pages and reducing the overall aesthetic appeal, but can also lead to paper jams and uneven cuts in subsequent binding and cutting processes. This severely impacts production efficiency and product yield, increasing production costs and scrap rates. Therefore, a smoothing device is needed to effectively solve the problem of curling edges after printing on rolls of book and periodicals, thereby improving the quality of printed materials and production efficiency, reducing production costs, and meeting the needs of modern printing technology.

A paper unwinding roller 10 is vertically arranged at the end of the small support plate 9. A mesh sponge sleeve 121 is provided on the surface of the roll roller 12 and the paper unwinding roller 10 to improve the stability of the roll paper conveying. A large support plate 6 is also inclined parallel to the small support plate 9. The large support plate 6 is fixedly arranged on one side of the machine body 1. A drive motor 7 is vertically arranged on one side of the end of the large support plate 6. The output end of the drive motor 7 is fixedly connected to the roll shaft 8. The roll shaft 8 is vertically arranged on the other side of the end of the large support plate 6. The roll shaft 8 is used to pick up the roll paper. The roll shaft 8 is parallel to the paper unwinding roller 10. An anti-rolling component is provided on the upper surface of the machine body 1.

[0020] The flattening assembly includes a hydraulic press 41, a telescopic shaft 42, a first pressure plate 43, telescopic springs 44, and a second pressure plate 45. The hydraulic press 41 is fixedly supported at the center of the support frame 3. The output end of the hydraulic press 41 faces the upper surface of the machine body 1 and is fixedly connected to the first pressure plate 43. The first pressure plate is parallel to the upper surface of the machine body 1. Telescopic shafts 42 are arranged on both sides of the hydraulic press 41. The telescopic shafts 42 are vertically fixed on the support frame 3, and one end is fixedly connected to the surface of the first pressure plate 43. Multiple telescopic springs 44 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the first pressure plate 43. The other end of the telescopic springs 44 is fixedly connected to the second pressure plate 45. The connection of the telescopic springs 44 achieves a better flattening effect and prevents the surface of the roll paper from being damaged by excessive pressing speed. A rubber sleeve 451 is fixedly arranged on the lower surface of the second pressure plate 45 to prevent the pressure plate from directly contacting the surface of the roll paper during the flattening operation. The rubber has a certain degree of resilience and can effectively prevent the paper from being damaged during the flattening operation.

[0021] The anti-rolling component includes a fixed frame 51, an anti-rolling roller 52, a downward pressure anti-rolling roller 53, and a buffer spring 54. A groove 101 is provided on the upper surface of the machine body 1, and fixed frames 51 are fixedly installed on both sides of the groove 101. The anti-rolling roller 52 is engaged with the lower half of the fixed frame 51, and the surface of the anti-rolling roller 52 is parallel to the upper surface of the machine body 1, so that the roll paper can be better transferred through the anti-rolling roller 52 after being flattened. The upper half of the fixed frame 51 is provided with the downward pressure anti-rolling roller 52, and the surface of the downward pressure anti-rolling roller 53 is in contact with the surface of the anti-rolling roller 52. A buffer spring 54 is engaged above the downward pressure anti-rolling roller 52, and the other end of the buffer spring 54 is engaged with the fixed frame 51. When the roll paper enters the gap between the anti-rolling roller 52 and the downward pressure anti-rolling roller 54, the buffer spring 54 can achieve a better squeezing effect, thereby preventing the curling phenomenon and improving the overall aesthetics of the roll paper.

[0022] Working principle: First, the roll of paper is placed on the roll shaft 8. The drive motor 7 is started, and the roll of paper begins to move on the roll shaft 8. One end of the roll of paper is supported by the paper unwinding roller 10 and enters the gap between the paper roll roller 12 and the lower pressure roller 13. The elasticity and toughness of the roll of paper are squeezed first. Then, it enters the upper surface of the machine body 1 and is driven by the hydraulic shaft 41 to drive the flattening component. The second pressure plate 45 is fitted with a rubber sleeve 451 that fits and presses down on the roll of paper. After the roll of paper is flattened, the anti-curling component achieves the anti-curling effect. Through the adhesion between the anti-curling roller 52 and the lower anti-curling roller 53, the roll of paper completes the final compression, thereby preventing the curling phenomenon.
