Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of digital printing technology, and in particular to an environmentally friendly digital printing device. Background Technology

[0002] In simple terms, the digital printing production process involves inputting various digital patterns—such as scanned images, digital photographs, or computer-generated patterns—into a computer. These patterns are then processed by a computer-aided color separation printing system, and finally, specialized RIP software uses a printing system to directly spray various specialized dyes (reactive, disperse, and acidic main coatings) onto various fabrics or other media. After further processing, high-precision printed products are obtained on various textile fabrics. However, existing printing equipment has certain shortcomings. The printing process generates waste gas, which is directly emitted into the workshop, potentially affecting the health of workers in the long run. Furthermore, the waste gas can enter the environment, causing long-term pollution. Environmentally friendly digital printing equipment, in particular, requires drying the printed products, which often generates high-temperature waste gas. This high temperature can damage activated carbon or catalysts, resulting in inadequate waste gas treatment and poor environmental performance. Therefore, effectively treating the waste gas generated by digital printing equipment is a pressing issue that needs to be addressed. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, in view of the above problems, this utility model proposes an environmentally friendly digital printing device that effectively treats high-temperature waste gas, has a good waste gas treatment effect, and is environmentally friendly.

[0004] To solve this technical problem, this utility model adopts the following solution: an environmentally friendly digital printing device, including a frame, a digital printing mechanism mounted on the frame, and a drying chamber. The drying chamber is located on one side of the digital printing mechanism to dry the products printed by the digital printing mechanism. It also includes a waste gas collection and treatment device, which includes a controller, an exhaust fan, a particulate filter assembly, a zeolite impeller, a catalytic combustion tower, a cooling tower, an activated carbon filter tower, and a desorption fan. The exhaust fan is mounted on the drying chamber, and its inlet extends into the top of the drying chamber to remove heat waste generated inside. Gas is drawn into the inlet of the particulate filter assembly. The filter outlet of the particulate filter assembly is connected to the air inlet of the zeolite rotor. The air outlet of the zeolite rotor is connected to the air inlet of the catalytic combustion tower. The exhaust port of the catalytic combustion tower is connected to the air inlet of the cooling tower. The air outlet of the cooling tower is connected to the inlet of the activated carbon filter tower. The desorption fan is located between the desorption outlet of the activated carbon filter tower and the exhaust gas inlet of the catalytic combustion tower to send the desorbed exhaust gas from the activated carbon filter tower into the catalytic combustion tower for combustion treatment. The exhaust fan, zeolite rotor, catalytic combustion tower, cooling tower and desorption fan are all connected and controlled by a controller.

[0005] In a further improvement, the particulate matter filtration assembly includes a mesh frame and filter cotton. The left and right ends of the mesh frame are the inlet and the outlet, respectively. The filter cotton is filled inside the mesh frame. The exhaust port of the exhaust fan is connected to the inlet of the mesh frame, and the outlet of the mesh frame is connected to the air inlet of the zeolite rotor.

[0006] In a further improvement, the particulate matter filtration assembly also includes a vibration pump and an adsorber. The vibration pump is located inside the grid frame at the top of the grid frame to drive the filter cotton inside the grid frame to vibrate. The adsorber is located inside the grid frame in the area below the inlet of the grid frame and the exhaust port of the exhaust fan. The bottom of the grid frame, below the adsorber, has a dust collection box that communicates with the exhaust port of the adsorber. The front or back of the grid frame has a sealable door that can be opened / closed for removing the filter cotton and cleaning the large particles adsorbed on the filter cotton. Both the vibration pump and the adsorber are connected to and controlled by a controller.

[0007] In a further improvement, the activated carbon filter tower includes a tower body and multiple activated carbon adsorption layers disposed within the tower body, and the inlet of the desorption fan is connected to the desorption port of each activated carbon adsorption layer of the activated carbon filter tower.

[0008] Further improvements include a second exhaust fan, which is located between the cooling tower outlet and the activated carbon filter inlet.

[0009] By adopting the aforementioned technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting up a waste gas collection and treatment device on the drying box of the digital printing device, the waste gas generated by the drying box is sent by an exhaust fan to a particulate filter to remove ink particles and fiber dust from the waste gas. Then, the waste gas is sent to a zeolite rotor to concentrate the low-concentration waste gas to 5-20 times its original volume and then sent to a catalytic combustion tower for combustion treatment. VOCs are completely decomposed at a high temperature of 800-1000℃. The tail gas and flue gas of the catalytic combustion tower are sent to a cooling tower to cool down to below 40℃ and then sent to an activated carbon filter tower for secondary treatment, thereby enabling the waste gas to meet emission standards. Controlling the flue gas temperature below 40℃ can avoid damaging the activated carbon. The desorption fan is set between the desorption outlet of the activated carbon filter tower and the waste gas inlet of the catalytic combustion tower to send the desorbed waste gas from the activated carbon filter tower into the catalytic combustion tower for combustion treatment, so that the activated carbon filter tower can be reused repeatedly, realizing self-circulation of treatment, effectively treating high-temperature waste gas, with good waste gas treatment effect and good environmental protection. A vibration pump is installed on the mesh frame filled with filter cotton. The vibration can be controlled by setting a timer. An adsorber controlled by the controller is set below the front area. Large particles on the filter cotton are adsorbed into the dust collection box when they fall off due to vibration. This allows the filter cotton to be cleaned regularly, extending the service life of the filter cotton after removal and cleaning. This method can be widely promoted and applied.
