Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transportation devices, and in particular to a transportation device for printing on glass bottles. Background Technology
[0002] Glass bottle printing is a process that precisely attaches specific information to the surface of a glass bottle using printing equipment. It is widely used in the food, beverage, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries. By spraying a coating onto the glass bottle surface, various colors and effects can be created. Glass bottle printing requires transport equipment, the design of which must balance printing quality, production efficiency, and equipment stability.
[0003] However, existing glass bottle printing transport devices lack a clamping mechanism for the glass bottles. This can cause wobbling during transport and printing, resulting in minute displacements that accumulate and lead to increasingly larger positional deviations in the subsequently printed bottles. Furthermore, the lack of a mechanism to drive the bottle's rotation prevents the printing equipment from adhering properly to the bottle body. This can cause ink buildup in some areas and sparse ink in others, resulting in inconsistent color depth and potentially interruptions in the print due to seams or other irregularities on the bottle.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model proposes a transport device for printing on glass bottles. Utility Model Content
[0005] This invention provides a transport device for printing on glass bottles, which can solve the problem of poor printing quality caused by the lack of a clamping mechanism for glass bottles and a mechanism for driving the glass bottles to rotate in the prior art.
[0006] A transport device for printing on glass bottles, comprising:
[0007] The system comprises two parallel substrates, a conveyor, a printing component, a clamping component, and a rotating component. The conveyor, positioned between the two substrates, transports the glass bottle. The printing component, positioned above the conveyor, prints on the glass bottle. The clamping component, mounted on the printing component, holds the glass bottle; it includes two relatively movable clamping plates, each with an annular groove in which a rotating plate rotatably mounts. The rotating component, mounted on the printing component, drives the two rotating plates to rotate synchronously, thereby rotating the glass bottle.
[0008] Preferably, the conveying component includes a rotating shaft rotatably connected between two substrates; a motor is provided on the substrate; the drive end of the motor is connected to the rotating shaft; two rotating shafts are arranged in a horizontal direction; sprockets are provided on both sides of the two rotating shafts; a chain is wound around the two sprockets on the same side; and multiple connecting shafts are evenly arranged between the chains on both sides.
[0009] Preferably, multiple connecting shafts are fitted with foam sleeves.
[0010] Preferably, the foam sleeve is spindle-shaped.
[0011] Preferably, baffles are provided on the lower side of both chains; the baffles are fixedly connected to the side wall of the base plate.
[0012] Preferably, the inkjet printing component includes mounting plates fixedly disposed on two substrates respectively; a connecting plate is fixedly connected between the two mounting plates; and an inkjet printer is fixedly disposed at the lower end of the connecting plate.
[0013] Preferably, the clamping component includes a bidirectional lead screw rotatably connected between two mounting plates; a second motor is provided on the side wall of the mounting plate; the drive end of the second motor is connected to the bidirectional lead screw; two clamping plates are threadedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw; the two clamping plates are respectively disposed on both sides of the bidirectional lead screw.

[0015] Preferably, a sleeve is fixedly connected to each of the two driven wheels; a sliding rod is slidably connected inside the sleeve; and the two sliding rods are fixedly connected to the rotating plates on the corresponding sides.
[0016] Preferably, rubber pads are provided on opposite sides of the two rotating plates.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0018] (1) This glass bottle printing transport device includes a bidirectional lead screw rotatably connected between two mounting plates; a second motor is installed on the side wall of the mounting plates; the drive end of the second motor is connected to the bidirectional lead screw; two clamping plates are threaded onto the bidirectional lead screw; the two clamping plates are respectively located on both sides of the bidirectional lead screw. By starting the second motor, the bidirectional lead screw is rotated, thereby causing the two clamping plates to move relative to each other and clamp the glass bottle. This reduces the shaking and vibration of the glass bottle during the printing process, resulting in clear printed patterns. It also ensures that the relative position of the glass bottle and the printing machine remains consistent each time printing, avoiding quality problems caused by printing position deviations.
[0019] (2) This glass bottle printing transport device includes a rotating rod rotatably connected between two mounting plates; a motor is located on the side wall of the mounting plate; the drive end of the motor is connected to the rotating rod; driving wheels are located on both sides of the rotating rod; driven wheels are meshed on one side of each of the two driving wheels; the driven wheels are rotatably connected to the side wall of the mounting plate on the corresponding side. By starting the motor, the rotating rod is driven to rotate, thereby driving the driving wheels on both sides to rotate, which in turn drives the driven wheels, sleeves, slide rods, and rotating plates on both sides to rotate synchronously, thus driving the glass bottle to rotate. This ensures that the printing ink adheres evenly to the bottle surface. For some continuous patterns surrounding the glass bottle, rotating printing ensures the continuity and integrity of the pattern.
[0020] (3) The glass bottle printing transport device has a rotating shaft rotatably connected between two substrates; a motor is installed on the substrate; the drive end of the motor is connected to the rotating shaft; two rotating shafts are arranged horizontally; sprockets are provided on both sides of the two rotating shafts; a chain is wound around the two sprockets on the same side; multiple connecting shafts are evenly arranged between the chains on both sides. By placing multiple glass bottles one by one in the recess between the two connecting shafts, and then starting the motor to drive the sprockets to rotate, thereby driving the chain and multiple connecting shafts to drive the transmission. Glass bottles can be transported, thus enabling the printing of a large number of glass bottles at one time. During the transport process, the glass bottles are placed in the recess between the two connecting shafts, which can separate the glass bottles one by one and avoid the glass bottles colliding with each other and causing damage.

[0027] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below, but it should be understood that the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments.
[0028] like Figure 1-4 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of this utility model provides a glass bottle printing transport device, including two parallel substrates 1, a conveying component 2, a printing component 3, a clamping component 4, and a rotating component 5. The conveying component 2 is disposed between the two substrates 1 for conveying the glass bottle. The printing component 3 is disposed above the conveying component 2 for printing on the glass bottle. The clamping component 4 is disposed on the printing component 3 for clamping the glass bottle; the clamping component 4 includes two relatively movable clamping plates 43; each clamping plate 43 has an annular groove, and a rotating plate 44 is rotatably disposed within the annular groove. The rotating component 5 is disposed on the printing component 3 for driving the two rotating plates 44 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the glass bottle to rotate.
[0029] Further explanation: The conveyor 2 includes a rotating shaft rotatably connected between two substrates 1; a motor 22 is mounted on the substrate 1; the drive end of the motor 22 is connected to the rotating shaft; two rotating shafts are arranged horizontally; sprockets 21 are mounted on both sides of the two rotating shafts; a chain 23 is wound around the two sprockets 21 on the same side; multiple connecting shafts 24 are evenly arranged between the chains 23 on both sides, which can convey glass bottles, thereby enabling the printing of a large number of glass bottles at once. During the conveying process, the glass bottles are placed in the recess between the two connecting shafts 24, which separates the glass bottles one by one, preventing them from colliding and breaking. Foam sleeves 25 are fitted on the multiple connecting shafts 24 to further protect the glass bottles. The foam sleeves 25 are spindle-shaped, which allows the glass bottles to move smoothly and prevents them from spinning in the recess between the two connecting shafts 24, thus avoiding inaccurate printing positions. Both chains 23 are provided with baffles 26 on their lower sides; the baffles 26 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the base plate 1 to prevent the chains 23 from collapsing downwards.
[0030] To further explain, the printing component 3 includes mounting plates 31 respectively fixedly mounted on two substrates 1; a connecting plate 32 is fixedly connected between the two mounting plates 31; and a printing machine 33 is fixedly mounted at the lower end of the connecting plate 32 for printing on the glass bottle.
[0031] Further explanation: The clamping component 4 includes a bidirectional lead screw 41 rotatably connected between two mounting plates 31; a second motor 42 is provided on the side wall of the mounting plate 31; the drive end of the second motor 42 is connected to the bidirectional lead screw 41; two clamping plates 43 are threadedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw 41; the two clamping plates 43 are respectively arranged on both sides of the bidirectional lead screw 41. The relative movement of the two clamping plates 43 can be controlled to firmly clamp the glass bottle, reducing the shaking and vibration of the glass bottle during the printing process, and making the printed pattern lines clear. Furthermore, the clamping position is constant, ensuring that the glass bottle is exactly below the inkjet printer 33. This ensures that the relative position of the glass bottle and the inkjet printer 33 remains consistent during each printing, avoiding quality problems caused by printing position deviations.
[0032] Further explanation: The rotating component 5 includes a rotating rod 51 rotatably connected between two mounting plates 31; a motor 52 is provided on the side wall of the mounting plate 31; the drive end of the motor 52 is connected to the rotating rod 51; driving wheels 53 are provided on both sides of the rotating rod 51; driven wheels 54 are meshed with one side of each of the two driving wheels 53; the driven wheels 54 are rotatably connected to the side wall of the mounting plate 31 on the corresponding side. Sleeves 55 are fixedly connected to each of the two driven wheels 54; sliding rods 56 are slidably connected inside the sleeves 55; the two sliding rods 56 are fixedly connected to the rotating plates 44 on the corresponding sides. The rotating component 5 can drive the rotating plates 44 to rotate, thereby driving the glass bottle to rotate, which can ensure that the ink is evenly adhered to the surface of the bottle. For some continuous patterns around the glass bottle, rotating inkjet printing can ensure the continuity and integrity of the pattern. Rubber pads 45 are provided on the opposite sides of the two rotating plates 44 to avoid collision with the glass bottle during clamping or damage to the bottle due to excessive clamping pressure.
[0033] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During operation, multiple glass bottles are first placed one by one in the recess between two connecting shafts 24. Then, the motor 22 is started to drive the sprocket 21 to rotate, thereby driving the chain 23 and multiple connecting shafts 24 for transmission. When the glass bottles are conveyed to the bottom of the inkjet printer 33, the second motor 42 is started to drive the bidirectional lead screw 41 to rotate, thereby driving the two clamping plates 43 to move relative to each other and clamp the glass bottles. Next, the third motor 52 is started to drive the rotating rod 51 to rotate, thereby driving the driving wheels 53 on both sides to rotate, which in turn drives the driven wheels 54 on both sides, the sleeve 55, the slide bar 56, and the rotating plate 44 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the glass bottles to rotate. Finally, the inkjet printer 33 is started to print on the glass bottle body.
[0034] The above-disclosed embodiments are only a few specific examples of the present utility model. However, the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
