Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of printing equipment technology, and in particular to a printing device for fast-drying water-based inks. Background Technology
[0002] Quick-drying water-based inks are a type of ink that uses water as a solvent or dispersion medium. They are characterized by rapid drying and are mainly composed of water-based resins, pigments, and additives. Many printing presses typically use quick-drying water-based inks. Furthermore, to improve efficiency and achieve simultaneous "printing + feeding" operations, some printing presses are equipped with two platforms (also called dual runners). Traditional dual runner printing presses have a large gap when switching between the two platforms. If operators do not promptly notice the synchronization or misalignment of the platform movements and avoid dangerous areas, their fingers can easily get caught in the gap and cause injury. Additionally, the operating buttons on some current printing presses are fixed to the machine body. This structure has ergonomic flaws; operators of different heights must bend over, stand on tiptoe, or raise their hands, which not only easily leads to shoulder, neck, and back strain and occupational diseases, but also affects the accuracy and speed of operation due to uncomfortable posture, increasing the risk of misoperation. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems of finger pinching in the platform switching gaps of traditional dual-runway printing presses, and the fixed operation buttons of some printing presses, which can easily lead to fatigue, affect efficiency and accuracy for operators of different heights. The invention proposes a printing device for fast-drying water-based inks.
[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A printing device for quick-drying water-based ink includes a printing machine and a first running table and a second running table disposed on the printing machine. It also includes: a pair of slide rails fixedly installed on the printing machine to support the alternating sliding of the first and second running tables; a stop mechanism disposed on the first running table to block the end of the second running table approaching the first running table; and a mounting groove formed at one end of the printing machine, wherein a pedal mechanism that moves up and down is slidably connected inside the mounting groove.
[0005] Optionally, the stop mechanism includes a U-shaped stop bar, and the top of each slide rail is provided with a slide groove for the U-shaped stop bar to be inserted into. Both ends of the second running platform are fixedly connected to sliders that are inserted into the slide grooves. One end of each U-shaped stop bar inserted into the slide groove is fixedly connected to a return spring, and the end of the return spring away from the U-shaped stop bar is fixedly connected to the slider.
[0006] Optionally, the pedal mechanism includes a pedal slidably connected in a mounting groove, an L-shaped support plate fixedly connected to the lower surface of one end of the printing press, a motor fixedly connected to the L-shaped support plate, and a spiral rod that spirally passes through the pedal fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor.
[0007] Optionally, a pair of limiting support plates are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the pedal.
[0008] Optionally, the printing press is further provided with a printing mechanism corresponding to the first and second running tables.
[0009] Optionally, a corrugated cover is fitted onto the spiral rod, one end of which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove, and the other end of which is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the pedal.
[0010] Optionally, the upper surface of the pedal is provided with a pair of foot markings for foot to step on.
[0011] Optionally, both the foot markings and the limiting support plates are symmetrically arranged with the motor as the center.
[0012] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0013] This utility model utilizes the cooperation of structures such as slide rails, stop lever mechanisms, and pedal mechanisms. The two running platforms slide alternately through the slide rails. When switching, the slider drives the U-shaped stop bar to compress the return spring, using the elastic force to block the approach end of the running platform to reduce the gap and reduce the risk of pinching. At the same time, stepping on the foot mark starts the motor to drive the screw rod, so that the pedal can be raised and lowered in the slide groove to adjust the operating height. The limit support plate ensures stability, and the corrugated cover prevents dust. This solves the ergonomic defects of fixed buttons and reduces fatigue and misoperation. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Example
[0025] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, this utility model proposes a printing device for quick-drying water-based ink, including a printing machine 1 and a first running table 11 and a second running table 12 mounted on the printing machine 1. Under normal conditions, the first running table 11 has a U-shaped baffle 14 on it and a gap between the first running table 11 and the upper surface of the second running table 12 for placing printed materials. A pair of slide rails 13 are fixedly installed on the printing machine 1 to support the alternating sliding of the first running table 11 and the second running table 12. The printing machine 1 also has a printing mechanism 17 corresponding to the first running table 11 and the second running table 12. The printing mechanism 17 is the core component for printing quick-drying water-based ink on the workpieces on the first running table 11 and the second running table 12, realizing the printing function. A mounting groove 111 is provided at one end of the printing machine, allowing the pedal mechanism to slide and providing a mounting base for adjusting the operating height.
[0026] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first running platform 11 is equipped with a stop mechanism to block the end of the second running platform 12 that approaches the first running platform 11. The stop mechanism includes a U-shaped stop bar 14, which is disposed on the first running platform 11. The U-shaped stop bar 14 blocks the approaching end of the second running platform 12 through the elastic action of the return spring 15, reducing the platform switching gap and lowering the risk of pinching injury. A small gap is left between the U-shaped stop bar 14 and the first running platform 11, but this gap will disappear through the movement and compression of the first running platform 11, thereby avoiding a large gap between the first running platform 11 and the second running platform 12. The top of each slide rail 13 is provided with a slide groove for the U-shaped stop bar 14 to be inserted. Both ends of the second running platform 12 are fixedly connected to sliders 16 that are inserted into the slide grooves. The end of the U-shaped stop bar 14 inserted into the slide groove is fixedly connected to a return spring 15. The return spring 15 connects the U-shaped stop bar 14 and the slider 16, and pushes the U-shaped stop bar 14 tightly against the first running platform 11 through elastic force, reducing the gap. The end of the return spring 15 away from the U-shaped stop bar 14 is fixedly connected to the slider 16.
[0027] In addition, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a foot pedal mechanism that moves up and down is slidably connected inside the mounting groove 111. The foot pedal mechanism includes a foot pedal 2 slidably connected inside the mounting groove 111. The foot pedal 2 is for the operator to step on and moves up and down via a screw rod 25 driven by a motor 24 to adjust the operating height. A pair of limiting plates 21 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the foot pedal 2 to ensure smooth movement of the foot pedal 2 and prevent shaking. A pair of foot markings 22 are provided on the upper surface of the foot pedal 2 to guide the operator to the correct footing position. The pair of foot markings 22 and the limiting plates 21 are symmetrically arranged around the motor 24. An L-shaped support plate 23 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of one end of the printing machine 1. The motor 24 is fixedly connected to the L-shaped support plate 23, and a screw rod 25 that spirals through the foot pedal 2 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 24.
[0028] It is worth noting that, such as Figure 1 As shown, a corrugated cover 26 is fitted onto the spiral rod 25. The corrugated cover 26 is fitted over the spiral rod 25 to prevent dust and protect the components of the spiral rod 25, thus extending the service life of the equipment. One end of the corrugated cover 26 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove 111, and the other end of the corrugated cover 26 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the pedal 2.
[0029] In this embodiment, when using a printing press with fast-drying water-based ink, the operator steps on the foot marker 22 on the pedal 2, starting the motor 24 to drive the screw rod 25 to rotate, causing the pedal 2 to move up and down within the mounting groove 111 to adjust the operating height. Simultaneously, the first running platform 11 and the second running platform 12 slide alternately via the slide rail 13 to achieve synchronized "printing + loading" operations. When switching running platforms, the U-shaped stop bar 14, through the elastic action of the return spring 15, ensures that it cooperates with the first running platform 11 to block the approach end of the second running platform 12, reducing the platform switching gap and lowering the risk of pinching injuries. The printing mechanism 17 prints fast-drying water-based ink on the workpieces on the running platforms. The corrugated cover 26 prevents dust and protects the components of the screw rod 25, and the limiting support plate 21 ensures smooth pedal movement, achieving safe and efficient printing operations.
[0030] The preferred embodiments of this utility model described above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to any specific implementation. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of this utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. This utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
