Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gravure printing technology, specifically to a scraping device for gravure printing processing. Background Technology

[0002] Gravure printing involves engraving the image areas onto the surface of a printing cylinder. The image areas are recessed, with the depth varying depending on the image's tonal range. The non-image areas are raised and lie on the same plane. Before printing, the entire printing plate is saturated with ink. Then, a doctor blade scrapes away the ink from the non-image areas, filling the cells with ink. Finally, high printing pressure and the adhesion between the ink and the substrate transfer the ink from the cells to the substrate.

[0003] The existing gravure printing process relies on manual ink application. This manual operation depends on the worker's experience, and the application pressure and squeegee angle often fluctuate, resulting in incomplete ink application. This leads to ink residue on non-recessed areas of the gravure surface or ink gaps in recessed areas, causing rework. This increases manual labor and reduces production efficiency. Furthermore, gravure printing inks contain a large amount of volatile organic compounds, and long-term exposure to high concentrations during manual operation can cause harm to the human body.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a scraping device for gravure printing to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

The outer walls of the placement table 8 are all sloped. The inner bottom surface of the feed tray 801 is inclined. The feed tubes 802 are provided on both sides of one end of the feed tray 801. The feed tubes 802 are connected to the interior of the feed tray 801. The front side of the processing table 1 is provided with a material collection box 9. The surface of the placement table 8 is provided with several placement grooves. The printing gravure plate 10 is placed in the middle of the placement groove.

[0025] The CNC moving table 3 and electric linear actuator 7 mentioned above are existing technology products, and their specific structures and functions will not be described in detail here.

[0026] The working principle of this practical application is as follows:

[0027] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1-5 For this type of gravure printing coating equipment, during use, the output end of the electric push rod 7 is slidably connected to the slide groove 702 on the bottom surface of the processing table 1 via the slider 701, achieving vertical movement. The output end of the electric push rod 7 is connected to the lower end of the U-shaped connecting rod 6, and the upper end of the connecting rod 6 is connected to the lower side wall of the CNC moving table 3. When the electric push rod 7 extends or retracts, it drives the CNC moving table 3 to move horizontally back and forth along the guide rod 5 via the connecting rod 6. The guide rod 5 passes through the middle of the side end of the CNC moving table 3 to ensure smooth lifting and prevent deviation. The scraper 4 has an arc-shaped design, and its upper part is matched with the mounting groove 402 at the bottom of the CNC moving table 3 via the mounting plate 401 and fixed with screws. The middle of the top of the scraper 4 is connected to the mounting plate 401. The bottom center is plugged in to further enhance stability and facilitate the disassembly, cleaning or replacement of the scraper 4. After the CNC moving table 3 descends to the set height, the scraper 4 contacts the printing gravure 10 on the placement table 8. The CNC moving table 3 moves in the horizontal direction, and the scraper 4 evenly scrapes the ink onto the surface of the gravure. Excess ink is scraped to the edge of the gravure. Multiple placement slots are opened on the surface of the placement table 8 to fix the printing gravure 10. The bottom of the placement table 8 is equipped with a feed tray 801, which is larger than the placement table 8 and forms an inner groove. The outer wall of the placement table 8 is designed with a slope. The bottom surface of the feed tray 801 is inclined. Excess ink flows into the inner groove along the slope and is discharged into the collection box 9 through the feed pipes 802 on both sides of one end to realize ink recycling.

[0028] When using this device, ensure all components are securely connected and that the power components, such as the electric push rod 7 and the CNC moving table 3, are functioning properly. Pour an appropriate amount of ink onto the surface of the gravure plate, ensuring the ink viscosity meets printing requirements. Place the printing gravure plate 10 in the placement slot of the placement table 8, ensuring it is firmly fixed. Turn on the power, and the electric push rod 7 will start, driving the CNC moving table 3 down until the scraper 4 contacts the gravure plate via the connecting rod 6. The CNC moving table 3 moves horizontally, and the scraper 4 evenly spreads the ink onto the surface of the gravure plate. Excess ink is scraped to the edge of the gravure plate and flows into the inner groove of the feed tray 801. The ink is discharged into the collection box 9 through the discharge pipe 802 for recycling. When cleaning the scraper 4 is needed... Alternatively, when replacing, loosen the screws between the mounting plate 401 and the CNC moving table 3, as well as the screws between the scraper 4 and the mounting plate 401, to remove the scraper 4. During installation, insert the top center of the new scraper 4 into the bottom center of the mounting plate 401, and then insert the mounting plate 401 into the mounting groove 402 at the bottom of the CNC moving table 3 and fix it with screws. The electric push rod 7 achieves smooth lifting and lowering of the CNC moving table 3 through the connecting rod 6. The guide rod 5 ensures accurate lifting direction. The arc-shaped scraper 4 design, combined with the horizontal movement of the CNC moving table 3, achieves uniform ink coating. The inclined and tilted design of the placement table 8 and the feed tray 801 ensures effective recovery of excess ink and reduces waste.
