[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are used to illustrate this utility model.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, a multi-angle adjustable bracket for an inkjet printer includes: a lifting cylinder 20, which is an electric cylinder. The top of the lifting cylinder 20 is detachably connected to an inkjet nozzle, which is controlled by connecting to the inkjet printer. The lifting cylinder 20 is also electrically connected to a corresponding power source. This is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the adjustment structure is set on the top of the lifting cylinder 20 to adjust the angle of the spray nozzle. The adjustment structure includes: a base block 30, a fixed column 31, a rotating ring 34, a horizontal column 40, and a sleeve 42. The base block 30 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting cylinder 20, the fixed column 31 is fixedly connected to the top of the base block 30, the rotating ring 34 is sleeved on the wall of the base block 30, the horizontal column 40 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating ring 34, and the sleeve 42 is sleeved on the wall of the horizontal column 40.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the fixed column 31 is cylindrical, the rotating ring 34 is annular, and the cavity of the rotating ring 34 can fit against the outer arc surface of the fixed column 31. The horizontal column 40 is also cylindrical, and the sleeve 42 is cylindrical, with the cavity of the sleeve 42 able to fit against the outer wall surface of the horizontal column 40. The adjustment structure also includes a first locking groove 32, a sleeve groove 33, a limiting frame 35, a sliding plate 36, a first locking column 37, and a straight column 38. The first locking groove 32 is located at the top of the fixed column 31, the sleeve groove 33 is located at the bottom of the fixed column 31, the limiting frame 35 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating ring 34, the sliding plate 36 is slidably connected to the top of the fixed column 31, and the first locking column 37 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating ring 34. The bottom of the slide plate 36 is connected to the bottom of the slide plate 36, and the straight column 38 is fixedly connected to the top of the slide plate 36. The first locking groove 32 is a groove with an arc-shaped cross section. Multiple identical first locking grooves 32 are arranged in a circular array on the top of the fixed column 31. The sleeve groove 33 is an annular groove with a semi-circular cross section. A circular ring that can rotate within the sleeve groove 33 is fixedly connected inside the cavity of the rotating ring 34. A circular bracket is fixedly connected to the bottom of the limiting frame 35. The limiting frame 35 is set above the rotating ring 34 through the circular bracket. The slide plate 36 is disc-shaped and can slide within the circular bracket. The first locking columns 37 are arranged in a circular array at the bottom of the slide plate 36. The first locking columns 37 can... The first locking post 37 is inserted into the first locking groove 32. The number and position of the first locking post 37 correspond to the first locking groove 32. The straight post 38 is a post with a capsule-shaped cross section. The straight post 38 can pass through the top center of the limit frame 35. A handle is installed on the top of the straight post 38. The adjustment structure also includes a second locking groove 41, a fixed block 43, a sliding frame 44, and a locking frame 45. The second locking groove 41 is opened on the arc surface of the horizontal post 40. The fixed block 43 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sleeve 42. The sliding frame 44 is slidably connected to the wall of the sleeve 42. The locking frame 45 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding frame 44. The second locking groove 41 is arranged in a ring on the arc surface of the horizontal post 40. Multiple slots are provided in the sleeve 42. The fixed block 43 is a concave block, the sliding frame 44 is a rectangular frame, and the cavity of the sliding frame 44 can be engaged with the notch of the fixed block 43. The locking frame 45 is a U-shaped rod, and the opening on the side wall of the locking frame 45 can be inserted into each set of opposing second locking grooves 41 on the wall of the horizontal column 40. The wall of the sleeve 42 is provided with a clamping structure, which includes a fixed plate 22, a screw 21, a limiting rod 23 and a pressure plate 24. The fixed plate 22 is fixedly connected to the top of the sleeve 42, the screw 21 is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed plate 22, the limiting rod 23 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the rear wall of the fixed plate 22, and the pressure plate 24 and the screw 21 are threadedly connected.

[0031] In practical use, firstly, the screw 21 is rotated to increase the distance between the pressure plate 24 and the fixed plate 22. Then, the inkjet terminal is clamped between the pressure plate 24 and the fixed plate 22. The screw 21 is then rotated to fix the inkjet terminal in place. When an object passes over the inkjet terminal, the inkjet terminal can be controlled to perform inkjet coding on the object by operating the inkjet printer. When the coding orientation of the inkjet terminal needs to be adjusted, the top of the straight column 38 is lifted upwards using the handle. When the straight column 38 is lifted, it will cause the sliding plate 36 and the first locking column 37 to move upwards synchronously. Then, the first locking column 37 will separate from the first locking groove 32 as the sliding plate 36 moves. At this time, the rotating ring 34 can rotate along the outer wall of the fixed column 31. When the rotating ring 34 is rotated, it will cause the inkjet terminal fixed on its side wall to rotate synchronously. After adjustment, the lifting of the straight column 38 can be released, and the first locking column 37 will lock into place due to gravity. The first locking groove 32 is used to fix the position of the rotating ring 34. When it is necessary to adjust the oblique orientation of the spray nozzle, the sliding frame 44 drives the locking frame 45 to be pulled in the opposite direction of the horizontal column 40. At this time, the sliding frame 44 will drive the locking frame 45 to slide along the wall of the fixed block 43, and the side wall of the locking frame 45 will separate from the second locking groove 41. When the locking frame 45 is completely misaligned with the second locking groove 41, it means that the position of the sleeve 42 is unlocked. At this time, the sleeve 42 can be controlled to move along the second locking groove 41. The outer wall rotates, and the outer wall of the second locking groove 41 is provided with an annular groove. A collar is fixedly connected in the cavity of the sleeve 42 towards the direction of the rotating ring 34. The collar of the sleeve 42 can be fitted into the groove of the wall of the second locking groove 41 to restrict the movement of the sleeve 42. After the sleeve 42 is driven to adjust the spraying dock to the required tilt state, the sliding frame 44 drives the locking frame 45 to move towards the horizontal column 40 so that the end of the locking frame 45 is inserted into the corresponding second locking groove 41 to lock the angle of the sleeve 42.

[0032] In summary, by setting an adjustment structure, the orientation of the spray nozzle above the lifting cylinder 20 can be adjusted in both directions, thereby achieving the best effect of spraying code on the inclined surface of the material.

[0033] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the fixed plate 22 is a rectangular plate, and a rectangular rod is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the fixed plate 22. The side wall of the rectangular rod can fit against the side wall of the pressure plate 24. The pressure plate 24 is located directly above the fixed plate 22. The limiting rod 23 is an L-shaped rod, and the spray nozzle is snapped between the pressure plate 24 and the fixed plate 22.

[0034] In practical use, after the spray nozzle is snapped between the pressure plate 24 and the fixed plate 22, the lines and connecting pipes of the spray nozzle can be placed between the symmetrical limit rods 23. When the spray nozzle slides down from between the pressure plate 24 and the fixed plate 22, the symmetrical limit rods 23 can restrict the lines and connecting pipes on its wall.

[0035] In summary, by setting up a clamping structure, not only can the spraying dock be clamped, but also when the spraying dock accidentally detaches from the pressure plate 24 and the fixed plate 22, the symmetrical limit rods 23 can restrict the lines and connecting pipes, thereby preventing the spraying dock from slipping off the side wall and being damaged.

[0036] Working principle: When the orientation of the inkjet marker needs to be adjusted, lift the top of the straight column 38 upwards using the handle. When the straight column 38 is lifted, it will drive the slide plate 36 and the first locking column 37 to move upwards simultaneously. Then, the first locking column 37 will separate from the first locking groove 32 as the slide plate 36 moves. At this time, the rotating ring 34 can rotate along the outer wall of the fixed column 31. When controlling the rotation of the rotating ring 34, the rotating ring 34 will drive the inkjet marker fixed on its side wall to rotate synchronously. After the adjustment is completed, the lifting of the straight column 38 can be released. Then, the first locking column 37 will be locked in the corresponding first locking groove 32 due to gravity, thus fixing the position of the rotating ring 34. When the oblique orientation of the inkjet marker needs to be adjusted, the sliding frame 44 will drive the locking frame 45 to pull in the opposite direction of the horizontal column 40. When the sliding frame 44 moves, the locking frame 45 will slide along the wall of the fixed block 43, and the side wall of the locking frame 45 will separate from the second locking groove 41. When the locking frame 45 is completely displaced from the second locking groove 41, it means that the position of the sleeve 42 is unlocked. At this time, the sleeve 42 can be controlled to rotate along the outer wall of the second locking groove 41. The outer wall of the second locking groove 41 is provided with an annular groove. A collar is fixedly connected in the cavity of the sleeve 42 towards the rotating ring 34. The collar of the sleeve 42 can be fitted into the groove of the wall of the second locking groove 41 to restrict the movement of the sleeve 42. After the sleeve 42 is moved to the desired tilt position, the sliding frame 44 moves the locking frame 45 towards the horizontal column 40 so that the end of the locking frame 45 is inserted into the corresponding second locking groove 41 to lock the angle of the sleeve 42.

Furthermore, under the teachings of this utility model, these features and embodiments can be modified to adapt to specific situations and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model.
