[0002] The stability of handling equipment is crucial in the production and transportation of CTP plates.
[0003] Existing CTP plate handling equipment typically uses pressure plates to fix stacked plates. These pressure plates are usually designed with a fixed height. However, when the stacking height changes (e.g., different batches have different loading volumes), the fixed pressure plates cannot adaptively adjust, potentially leading to insecure plate fixation and easy shaking or even falling during transport. Furthermore, improperly set fixed pressure plate height can cause excessive pressure on the plate surface, resulting in indentations or damage and affecting plate quality. Finally, the equipment lacks flexibility in adapting to the stacking requirements of different plate specifications, resulting in poor equipment versatility. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention aims to at least partially solve one of the problems in related technologies.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.
[0030] like Figure 1 - Figure 5 As shown, the CTP plate handling device 1 provided in this application includes:
[0031] The transfer platform 10 includes a base plate 11, two side panels 12 fixedly connected to two opposite sides of the base plate 11, and two baffles 13 movably connected to the other two sides of the transfer platform 10. The edges of the side panels 12 and the edges of the baffles 13 cooperate with each other. The base plate 11, the two side panels 12 and the two baffles 13 enclose and form a receiving cavity 14. The side panels 12 and the baffles 13 are detachably connected.
[0032] The pressure plate mechanism 30 includes a pressure plate 31, multiple connecting rods 32, and an adjustment component 33. The multiple connecting rods 32 are connected to the pressure plate 31 at intervals. The adjustment component 33 includes multiple connecting seats 331 and positioning pins 333. The multiple connecting seats 331 are all connected to the outer side of the enclosure 12. The connecting seats 331 have mounting grooves 3311. The groove walls of the mounting grooves 3311 have multiple positioning holes 3313 at intervals along the vertical direction. The positioning pins 333 are connected to the ends of the connecting rods 32 away from the pressure plate 31. One connecting rod 32 is inserted into one mounting groove 3311. The positioning pins 333 change the fixed height of the pressure plate 31 by being inserted into different positioning holes 3313.
[0033] When the loading amount of the printing plate varies, the operator can adjust the pressure plate 31 to the corresponding height by inserting and removing the positioning pin 333. When loading small batches, the pressure plate 31 is lowered to fit tightly against the top surface of the printing plate, and when under full load, the pressure plate 31 is raised to accommodate the stacking thickness. This adjustment method ensures that the pressure plate 31 always forms effective contact with the top surface of the printing plate, preventing the printing plate from shaking or falling off due to vibration during transportation.
[0034] During handling, the baffle 13 and the surrounding plate 12 form a closed cavity, providing lateral restraint for the printing plates. During loading and unloading, the printing plates can be quickly picked up and placed from the side simply by opening the baffle 13, avoiding the cumbersome operation of stacking the plates vertically in traditional four-sided fixed structures. This design is particularly suitable for the batch transfer of large-size printing plates. Operators can push open the baffle 13 to push in an entire stack of printing plates at once, which significantly shortens the loading and unloading time and improves the efficiency of assembly line operations compared to the traditional single-sheet loading and unloading method.
[0035] The base plate 11, as the fundamental component of the transfer platform 10, has a plate-like structure and is fixedly connected to the surrounding plate 12, supporting the entire device and the weight of the printing plates. It forms a stable support frame with the surrounding plate 12 through fixed connections (such as welding or bolting). It provides bottom support for stacking printing plates and serves as the installation reference for the surrounding plate 12, baffle 13, and pressure plate mechanism 30. The rigid structure of the base plate 11 evenly distributes the weight of the stacked printing plates, preventing tilting due to bottom deformation. For example, when loading large-sized printing plates, the high-strength material (such as aluminum alloy) of the base plate 11 can withstand heavy loads without bending, ensuring stable stacking. The fixed connection between the base plate 11 and the surrounding plate 12 provides precise installation positioning for other components, ensuring the dimensional accuracy of the receiving cavity 14, and ensuring a tight fit between the sides and bottom of the printing plates during loading, reducing swaying space during transportation.
[0036] Two side panels 12 are fixed to two opposite sides of the base plate 11, forming vertical plates perpendicular to the base plate 11. They are fixedly connected to the base plate 11, and their edges cooperate with the baffle 13 to form the side of the receiving cavity 14. As fixed sides of the receiving cavity 14, they provide lateral restraint for the stacking of printing plates, preventing them from tipping over. The fixed configuration of the side panels 12 provides stable lateral support for the printing plates, effectively suppressing lateral displacement caused by vibration, especially during handling. For example, when the equipment passes through bumpy sections, the side panels 12 can prevent the printing plates from swaying to the sides, avoiding damage to the edges and corners of the printing plates from collisions with the equipment. The side panels 12 and the movable baffle 13 enclose the receiving cavity 14, keeping the printing plates in a closed environment during transportation, reducing dust intrusion and the risk of external collisions, making it particularly suitable for CTP printing plates with high cleanliness requirements.
[0037] Two baffles 13 are movably connected to the other two sides of the transfer platform 10, and cooperate with the edges of the surrounding plate 12, allowing them to be opened and closed for loading and unloading printing plates. Serving as the movable sides of the receiving cavity 14, they open during loading and unloading to retrieve printing plates, and close during transport to form a closed cavity. The detachable design allows the baffles 13 to be opened quickly, enabling operators to directly push or retrieve printing plates from the side, eliminating the cumbersome stacking process compared to traditional four-sided fixed structures. When closed, the baffles 13 fit tightly with the surrounding plate 12. The position of the baffles 13 can be adjusted according to the width of the printing plate to ensure that the receiving cavity 14 matches the size of the printing plate, preventing the printing plate from wobbling due to excessive gaps.
[0038] The pressure plate 31 is plate-shaped and located above the receiving cavity 14. It is connected to the adjusting assembly 33 via connecting rods 32, and its bottom surface contacts the top surface of the printing plate. Multiple connecting rods 32 are spaced apart to press the top of the printing plate, working in conjunction with the side limiting mechanism of the receiving cavity 14 to form a three-dimensional fixation of the printing plate. The pressure plate 31 descends to the top surface of the printing plate via the adjusting assembly 33, applying uniform pressure to prevent the printing plate from jumping upwards due to vibration during transportation. For example, when the equipment is bumped up and down, the pressure plate 31 can fix the printing plate to the base plate 11, preventing misalignment caused by loose stacking of printing plates. The pressure plate 31 moves up and down with the adjusting assembly 33, accommodating small batches or full loads of printing plate stacking, ensuring that regardless of the load, the pressure plate 31 can tightly contact the top surface of the printing plate, improving the reliability of the fixation.
[0039] Multiple connecting rods 32 are connected at both ends to the positioning pins 333 of the pressure plate 31 and the adjusting component 33, respectively. One end is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 31, and the other end is connected to the positioning hole 3313 of the connecting seat 331 through the positioning pin 333. They transmit the height adjustment action of the adjusting component 33 to the pressure plate 31 and support the weight of the pressure plate 31. The multiple connecting rods 32 are distributed at intervals (such as at the four corners) to ensure that the pressure plate 31 is evenly stressed, avoiding tilting of the pressure plate 31 due to single-point stress. For example, four connecting rods 32 form a rectangular support, which can evenly distribute the pressure of the pressure plate 31 to the surface of the plate, with the pressure difference at each point not exceeding 5%, preventing local pressure deformation of the plate. The rigid material (such as steel) of the connecting rods 32 ensures that the pressure plate 31 remains horizontal after adjustment, and even if vibration occurs during transportation, it can suppress the shaking of the pressure plate 31 and maintain stable pressing on the plate.
[0040] The adjustment assembly 33 includes a connecting seat 331 and a positioning pin 333. Multiple connecting seats 331 are fixed to the outer side of the enclosure 12 and have vertical mounting grooves 3311 with multiple positioning holes 3313 in the groove walls. The positioning pins 333 are connected to the end of the connecting rod 32 and are inserted into the positioning holes 3313 of the mounting groove 3311 to fix the height of the connecting rod 32. By inserting the positioning pins 333 into the positioning holes 3313 at different heights, the vertical position of the pressure plate 31 can be adjusted to adapt to the stacking height of the plates.
[0041] In addition to the connection and adjustment structure of the locating pin 333 and the locating hole 3313, it can also be used for screw-nut adjustment structure, gear-rack transmission structure, electric adjustment structure and hydraulic / pneumatic adjustment structure.
[0042] Screw-nut adjustment structure: A vertical screw is set at the top of the enclosure plate 12. The screw passes through the through holes at both ends of the pressure plate 31 and is threadedly connected to the nut. Rotating the nut drives the pressure plate 31 to move up and down.
[0043] Gear-rack transmission structure: A vertical rack is fixed inside the enclosure 12, and a gear is connected to the end of the connecting rod 32. The gear meshes with the rack, and the pressure plate 31 is raised and lowered by rotating the gear.
[0044] Electric adjustment structure: includes motor, reducer and lead screw. The motor drives the lead screw to rotate. The lead screw nut is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 32 to realize the automatic lifting and lowering of the pressure plate 31.
[0045] Hydraulic / pneumatic adjustment structure: A hydraulic cylinder or air cylinder is installed on the outside of the enclosure 12. The piston rod is hinged to the connecting rod 32, and the pressure plate 31 is moved by hydraulic / pneumatic pressure.
[0046] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly 33 also includes a return spring 335, which is disposed between the positioning pin 333 and the connecting rod 32.
[0047] One end of the return spring 335 abuts against the positioning pin 333, and the other end abuts against the connecting rod 32. When the height of the pressure plate 31 needs to be adjusted, the external force overcomes the elastic force of the return spring 335, causing the positioning pin 333 to be pulled out from the current positioning hole 3313 and inserted into the positioning hole 3313 at another height. At this time, the return spring 335 returns to its original state, providing a stable abutting force for the positioning pin 333, ensuring a firm connection between the positioning pin 333 and the positioning hole 3313, preventing the pressure plate 31 from shaking or falling off during use, and improving the stability and reliability of the entire adjustment assembly 33.
[0048] Furthermore, the number of connections is four, and the four connecting rods 32 are rectangularly distributed at the four corners of the pressure plate 31.
[0049] Four connecting rods 32 are located at the four corners of the pressure plate 31, forming a stable rectangular support system that keeps the pressure plate 31 horizontal after adjustment. This layout can evenly transmit the pressure of the pressure plate 31 to the surface of the printing plate, avoiding the central depression or edge warping that may occur with traditional double-rod supports. For example, when the printing plates are stacked at a high height, the four-corner supports can ensure that the pressure on all points on the top of the printing plate is consistent, preventing bending and deformation of the printing plate due to local overload. This is especially suitable for the stability requirements when handling large-sized thin printing plates.
[0050] The four connecting rods 32 and the connecting seat 331 form a four-point fixation, significantly reducing the sway space of the pressure plate 31. When the equipment passes through bumpy sections, the four-point support can suppress the vertical vibration and lateral tilt of the pressure plate 31, keeping the plate material in a stable and fixed state. Compared with the double-rod support structure, the four-corner layout of the pressure plate 31 has a smaller sway amplitude, which can effectively reduce the risk of plate material displacement caused by vibration, and is especially suitable for use in long-distance transportation or complex workshop floor environments.
[0051] Furthermore, the end of the positioning pin 333 is semi-circular.
[0052] The semi-circular end shape eliminates the sharp edges of traditional right-angled ends, changing the contact surface of the locating pin 333 when inserted into the locating hole 3313 from linear contact to arc-shaped surface contact, thus significantly reducing frictional resistance. Operators can easily insert the locating pin 333 into the hole without applying force, making it particularly suitable for scenarios requiring frequent adjustments to the height of the pressure plate 31. This design not only reduces the operator's workload but also prevents damage to the locating pin 333 or locating hole 3313 due to improper force, making the adjustment operation smoother and more efficient.
[0053] In traditional right-angled locating pins 333, the sharp edges can cut against the edge of the locating hole 3313 during frequent insertion and removal, leading to increased wear on the hole wall. In contrast, the semi-circular end, with its arc-shaped contact surface, evenly distributes friction, spreading wear over a larger area and significantly reducing localized wear. Even after long-term use, the semi-circular end of the locating pin 333 maintains good fit with the locating hole 3313, reducing the risk of loosening of the pressure plate 31 due to component wear, thereby extending the service life of the entire handling device and reducing maintenance costs.
[0054] Furthermore, the pressure plate 31 has a padding layer on the side surface facing the base plate 11, and the padding layer is made of sponge.
[0055] The sponge padding layer has excellent elastic deformation capability. When the pressure plate 31 presses the plate, the padding layer deforms with the slight undulations on the plate surface, transforming the concentrated pressing force into a uniformly distributed surface pressure. This flexible contact avoids problems such as indentations and scratches caused by the rigid pressure plate 31 directly squeezing the plate, making it especially suitable for handling untreated or heat-sensitive plates with high surface precision requirements. For example, during handling, even if there are tiny particulate impurities on the plate surface, the sponge padding layer can absorb the protrusions through elastic deformation, preventing the pressure plate 31 from pressing the impurities into the plate surface and ensuring that the plate quality is not affected.
[0056] The porous structure of the sponge gives it excellent pressure dispersion capabilities. When the pressure plate 31 presses the plate material through the padding layer, the padding layer evenly transmits the pressure of the pressure plate 31 to the entire surface of the plate material, avoiding the uneven pressure that may occur with traditional rigid pressure plates 31, where the pressure is high at the edges and low in the middle. This uniform pressure distribution ensures that all parts of the plate material are firmly fixed, while reducing the risk of plate material deformation caused by excessive local pressure, and improving the stability and reliability of the handling process.
[0057] Furthermore, the surface of the pad layer is provided with silicone strips, which are spaced apart on the surface of the pad layer.
[0058] The silicone strips have a high coefficient of friction, and their rough texture significantly increases friction with the plate surface. When the pressure plate 31 presses the plate, the spaced silicone strips create multiple points of contact with the plate surface, effectively suppressing slippage caused by handling vibrations or turning inertia. For example, when the equipment turns within the workshop, the silicone strips provide sufficient friction to prevent the plate from sliding forward and impacting the baffle 13, ensuring the plate's positional stability during transport, making it particularly suitable for anti-slip applications when handling large-sized plates.
[0059] The silicone strips bear most of the compression force, leaving the sponge padding layer to withstand only a small portion of the pressure, thus preventing elastic fatigue caused by prolonged pressure on the entire surface of the sponge. The spaced design allows the sponge padding layer to maintain good elastic recovery in areas not covered by the silicone strips; even after multiple compression cycles, the overall elasticity of the padding layer will not significantly decrease. This structural design can significantly extend the service life of the padding layer, reduce replacement frequency, and lower equipment maintenance costs.
[0060] Furthermore, a pivot 15 is provided on one side edge of the enclosure 12, and one side of the baffle 13 is rotatably connected to the pivot 15. A magnet 121 is provided on the other side of the enclosure 12, and a magnetic metal block 131 is provided on the surface of the baffle 13 corresponding to the magnet 121.
[0061] When loading and unloading printing plates, operators only need to push open the magnetic adsorption end of magnet 121 with one hand, and the baffle 13 will rotate around the pivot 15 to open, without the need for any tools. This design shortens the opening and closing time of the baffle 13 from that of traditional bolted connections, making it particularly suitable for scenarios with frequent loading and unloading in assembly line operations. For example, in workshops that need to handle multiple batches of printing plates per hour, this structure can save a significant amount of operating time and improve overall production efficiency. At the same time, tool-free operation reduces the skill requirements for operators, allowing anyone to easily complete the loading and unloading operations.
[0062] The attraction force of magnet 121 creates a tight connection between baffle 13 and enclosure 12, effectively preventing edge collisions caused by gaps and movement of the printing plate during handling. Simultaneously, the sealed receiving cavity 14 reduces the entry of dust and debris, protecting the surface of the printing plate and making it particularly suitable for cleanrooms with high environmental requirements. Furthermore, the tight connection enhances the overall structural strength of the equipment, reduces noise caused by loose baffle 13 during handling, and creates a better working environment.
[0063] Furthermore, a handle 16 is provided on the side surface of the baffle 13 facing away from the enclosure 12.
[0064] The handle 16 is located on the outer side of the baffle 13, conforming to the natural arm height at which the operator applies force, allowing for easy gripping without bending over or tiptoeing. The diameter and anti-slip texture of the handle 16 ensure that the operator's hand is not prone to slipping when applying force, and the direction of force is consistent with the natural force direction of the arm, significantly reducing muscle fatigue during operation. For example, in work involving frequent opening and closing of the baffle 13, the handle 16 design can delay the operator's arm fatigue, improving work efficiency and comfort.
[0065] In addition, if the equipment tilts unexpectedly or is involved in a collision, the operator can quickly grab the handle 16 of the baffle 13 to stabilize the equipment and prevent the printing plate from falling or the equipment from tipping over due to panic. The handle 16 provides the operator with a reliable point of leverage, enhancing the ability to respond to emergencies. Especially when handling heavy printing plates, it can effectively reduce the probability of accidents and ensure the safety of the operator and the printing plate.
[0066] Furthermore, a movable shaft 17 and a push rod 18 are connected to the side of the base plate 11, and one end of the push rod 18 is rotatably connected to the push rod 18.
[0067] The push rod 18 can be adjusted within a certain range around the movable shaft 17. Taller operators can adjust the push rod 18 to a higher angle, while shorter operators can adjust it to a lower angle, ensuring that the direction of the pushing force is consistent with the natural extension direction of the arm. This adjustment function ensures that operators of different heights can push the equipment in a comfortable posture, reducing the risk of strain on the lower back and shoulders. For example, during long-distance transport, the angle of the push rod 18 can be adjusted to keep the operator in an upright posture, avoiding lower back fatigue caused by bending over to push the equipment, thus improving work comfort and efficiency.
[0068] When not in use, the push rod 18 can be rotated backward to be parallel to the base plate 11, shortening the overall length of the equipment and saving storage space. This design is particularly suitable for scenarios where equipment is densely packed in a workshop, avoiding space waste and collision risks caused by the protruding push rod 18. At the same time, the folded push rod 18 is flush with the base plate 11, facilitating the overall transportation of the equipment, reducing scratches and damage during transportation, and improving the convenience of equipment management.
[0069] Furthermore, a movable guide rail 111 is provided at the bottom of the base plate 11, and the two ends of the movable shaft 17 are slidably connected to the movable guide rail 111 to drive the push rod 18 to slide below the base plate 11.
[0070] The push rod 18 can slide along the guide rail into a dedicated groove below the base plate 11, and when retracted, it is flush with the surface of the base plate 11, completely eliminating protruding parts. This design prevents the equipment from colliding with other equipment or walls when moving within the workshop, making it particularly suitable for scenarios with narrow passages or dense equipment layouts. Simultaneously, the concealed storage protects the push rod 18 from external impact damage, extending its service life and reducing maintenance costs. For example, when the equipment is handled by a forklift, the concealed push rod 18 avoids interference with the forklift forks, ensuring safe and reliable transportation.
[0071] After the push rod 18 is retracted, there are no protruding parts on the surface of the base plate 11. Cleaning personnel can directly use mops or cleaning equipment to clean the floor without having to go around the push rod 18, which greatly improves the cleaning efficiency of the workshop. At the same time, the flat surface of the base plate 11 reduces the accumulation of dust and debris near the push rod 18, reduces the problem of the push rod 18 getting stuck due to dust accumulation, keeps the equipment in good operating condition, and reduces maintenance workload.
