Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water transfer printing technology, and in particular to an automatic transfer device for water transfer printing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] In modern manufacturing, water transfer printing technology, capable of creating exquisite patterns on the surfaces of workpieces with various complex shapes, is widely used in the surface decoration of products such as sporting goods and electronic product casings. This technology dissolves a transfer film in water and uses water pressure to transfer the pattern onto the workpiece surface, achieving high-precision and diverse pattern printing effects.

[0003] In terms of the transfer printing process for objects, most equipment lacks an automated station switching mechanism. Workpieces need to be manually moved to different stations for loading, transfer printing, drying, and unloading operations. This not only increases labor costs but also extends the production cycle and reduces production efficiency. At the same time, frequent manual handling also increases the risk of damage to the workpiece surface. To solve the above problems, this application proposes an automatic transfer printing device for water transfer printing equipment. Utility Model Content

Through 90-degree station switching combined with hydraulic rod lifting, it shortens the production cycle, improves the efficiency of large-scale production, and reduces the risk of workpiece contact damage.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] An automatic transfer device for water transfer printing equipment includes a housing. A fixed plate is fixedly connected to the side wall of the housing. A rotating rod is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed plate. A cross plate is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating rod. A transmission assembly is installed between the fixed plate and the rotating rod. Four hydraulic rods are fixedly connected to the bottom of the cross plate. A lifting plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of each hydraulic rod. Each lifting plate is provided with a clamping mechanism. The clamping mechanism includes a bidirectional lead screw that passes through the lifting plate and is rotatably connected to it. A handle is fixedly connected to the end of the bidirectional lead screw away from the lifting plate. Two moving blocks are threadedly connected to the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw. Two pairs of sliding rods are fixedly connected to the lifting plate. Each pair of sliding rods passes through a corresponding moving block and is slidably connected to it. An L-shaped rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of each moving block. Clamping plates are fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the two L-shaped rods. A horizontal plate is fixedly connected to the rear end of the fixed plate. A drying mechanism is provided on the horizontal plate.

[0007] Preferably, the drying mechanism includes a heating box disposed on the top of and fixedly connected to the fixed plate, a dustproof net fixedly connected to the inner wall of the heating box, two spiral heating coils fixedly connected to the inner wall of the heating box, a fan fixedly connected to the top of the heating box, a hollow tube fixedly connected to the top of the horizontal plate, an air inlet pipe connected to the side wall of the heating box and the fan, an air outlet pipe fixedly connected to the fan and the hollow tube, and multiple nozzles fixedly connected to the top of the hollow tube.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the fixing plate is fixedly connected to two support legs, and locking casters are installed at the bottom of the support legs and the bottom of the box.

[0009] Preferably, the transmission assembly includes a motor, a driving gear, and a driven gear. The motor is mounted on the top of the fixed plate and fixedly connected thereto. The output shaft of the motor is coaxially fixedly connected to the driving gear. The rotating rod passes through the driven gear and is coaxially fixedly connected thereto.

[0011] Preferably, the clamps are arc-shaped, and a protective layer is provided at the opposite ends of the two clamps, the protective layer being made of rubber.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. The symmetrical clamping plates are moved synchronously by a rotatable bidirectional screw, which enables the tennis racket to be clamped quickly and automatically, avoiding human error; the arc-shaped rubber protective layer can provide stable clamping force while preventing surface damage.

[0014] 2. The rotary station design with motor-driven gear transmission (the cross plate drives the four stations to rotate intermittently) realizes the fully automated flow of feeding, transfer printing, drying and unloading, eliminating the need for manual handling; the 90-degree precise station switching combined with hydraulic rod lifting shortens the production cycle, improves the efficiency of large-scale production, and reduces the risk of workpiece contact damage.

[0015] 3. The spiral heating coil, together with the fan, forms a hot air circulation system.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0023] Reference Figures 1-4 An automatic transfer device for water transfer printing equipment includes a housing 1, which stores transfer film and activator. A fixing plate 2 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the housing 1. The fixing plate 2 provides a stable mounting surface for subsequent components. The fixing plate 2 and the housing 1 together form the basic support structure of the device. Two support legs 3 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing plate 2. Locking casters 4 are installed at the bottom of the support legs 3 and the bottom of the housing 1. The support legs 3 cooperate with the locking casters 4 at the bottom of the housing 1 to achieve stable support and convenient movement of the device. The locking function ensures that the device remains stable and does not move during operation.

[0024] A rotating rod 5 is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed plate 2, and a cross plate 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating rod 5. A transmission assembly 7 is installed between the fixed plate 2 and the rotating rod 5. The transmission assembly 7 transmits the power of the motor to the rotating rod 5 to drive and control the rotation of the cross plate 6. The transmission assembly 7 includes a motor, a drive gear, and a driven gear. The motor is located on the top of the fixed plate 2 and is fixedly connected to it. The output shaft of the motor is coaxially fixedly connected to the drive gear. The rotating rod 5 passes through the driven gear and is coaxially fixedly connected to it. The drive gear and the driven gear mesh with each other. Four hydraulic rods 8 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the cross plate 6. A lifting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of each hydraulic rod 8. The hydraulic rods 8 rotate under the drive of the cross plate 6 and can simultaneously achieve their own lifting and lowering movements to adjust the height of the lifting plate 9.

[0025] Each lifting plate 9 is equipped with a clamping mechanism, which is installed on the lifting plate 9 to fix the tennis racket to be transferred. The clamping mechanism includes a bidirectional lead screw 10 that passes through the lifting plate 9 and is rotatably connected to it. A handle 11 is fixedly connected to the end of the bidirectional lead screw 10 away from the lifting plate 9. Two movable blocks 12 are sleeved on the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 10 and are threadedly connected to it. The relative movement of the two movable blocks 12 is realized through threaded transmission. The bidirectional lead screw 10 has two external threads with opposite directions. The two movable blocks 12 are respectively sleeved on the outer wall of the two external threads with opposite directions. When the bidirectional lead screw 10 rotates, the two movable blocks 12 move relative to each other or away from each other under the action of the opposite threads, realizing the clamping of the tennis racket. The clamping and releasing mechanism is achieved by fixing two pairs of sliding rods 13 on the lifting plate 9. Each pair of sliding rods 13 passes through and slides through the corresponding moving block 12. The sliding rods 13 guide and limit the moving block 12, ensuring that the moving block 12 moves stably in a straight line. Each moving block 12 has an L-shaped rod 14 fixedly connected to its bottom. The opposite ends of the two L-shaped rods 14 are fixedly connected to clamping plates 15. The clamping plates 15 clamp and fix the tennis racket under the action of the L-shaped rods 14. The clamping plates 15 are arc-shaped, and the opposite ends of the two clamping plates 15 are provided with a protective layer made of rubber. The arc-shaped clamping plates and the rubber protective layer can better fit the tennis racket and avoid damaging the tennis racket when clamping.

[0026] A horizontal plate is fixedly connected to the rear end of the fixed plate 2. A drying mechanism is installed on the horizontal plate to dry the tennis racket after water transfer printing. The drying mechanism includes a heating box 16 fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 2. A dustproof net 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the heating box 16. The dustproof net 17 filters dust from the air to ensure clean drying air and prevent contamination of the tennis racket. Two spiral heating coils 18 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the heating box 16. The spiral heating coils 18 circulate air into the heating box 16. The heating element provides a heat source for drying. A fan 19 is fixedly connected to the top of the heating box 16, and a hollow tube 20 is fixedly connected to the top of the horizontal plate. The hollow tube 20 receives the hot air delivered by the fan 19 and sprays the hot air out through nozzles to dry the tennis racket. An air inlet pipe is connected to the side wall of the heating box 16 and the fan 19. An air outlet pipe is fixedly connected to the fan 19 and the hollow tube 20. Multiple nozzles are fixedly connected to the top of the hollow tube 20. The nozzles spray the hot air inside the hollow tube 20 evenly to dry the tennis racket thoroughly.

[0027] In this invention, the motor is started, and its output shaft drives the driving gear, driven gear, rotating rod 5, cross plate 6, multiple hydraulic rods 8, and lifting plate 9 to rotate intermittently. When one lifting plate 9 moves to the end furthest from the housing 1, the motor is turned off. The worker places the tennis racket under the lifting plate 9 and positions the racket handle between the two clamping plates 15. The worker holds the handle 11 and rotates it, causing the double-acting screw 10 to rotate, which moves the two moving blocks 12, L-shaped rod 14, and clamping plates 15 relative to each other until the two clamping plates 15 abut against the racket handle, thus clamping and fixing the tennis racket. After a period of time (half a minute), the motor starts again, driving the cross plate 6, multiple hydraulic rods 8, lifting plate 9, and the clamped tennis racket to rotate until they move to the next station (rotating 90 degrees). At this point, the motor stops again, and the clamped tennis racket moves to the housing. When the racket is above body 1, the motor is turned off and the hydraulic rod 8 is started, which drives the lifting plate 9 and the clamped tennis racket to move down until the tennis racket is submerged in the water transfer liquid in the box 1, transferring a three-dimensional pattern on the surface of the tennis racket. Finally, the hydraulic rod 8 is started again, which drives the lifting plate 9 and the clamped tennis racket to move up and detach from the box 1. After a period of time (half a minute), the motor is started again, which drives the tennis racket to rotate above the hollow tube 20. The spiral heating coil 18 can heat the air in the heating box 16, and the fan 19 can inject the air in the heating box 16 into the hollow tube 20. Finally, the hot air is sprayed out to dry the tennis racket after the water transfer is completed. The dustproof net 17 can filter the dust in the air to ensure the cleanliness of the air. After drying, the motor is started again, which drives the tennis racket to rotate to the next station. Finally, the staff takes out the tennis racket after the water transfer and drying are completed.

[0028] This application has four workstations: one for feeding, one for water transfer, one for drying, and one for unloading.
