[0002] Packaging printing is the printing process that uses various packaging materials as a medium to print decorative patterns, designs, or text onto the packaging. This makes the product more attractive or informative, thereby conveying information and increasing sales. It includes printing on packaging boxes, bottles, cans, and more. Packaging printing accounts for a significant portion of both the printing and packaging industries and is an indispensable part of packaging engineering.

[0003] Existing ink supply devices for packaging and printing are not convenient for uniformly stirring ink during use. Ink tends to adhere to the inner wall of the ink storage tank and cannot be stirred, affecting the uniformity of ink mixing. Furthermore, when using a pump to extract ink, it is necessary to filter the ink, which is prone to impurities that affect the printing effect. Impurities can easily block the surface of the filter plate, affecting the ink output. It is also inconvenient to disassemble, clean, or replace the filter plate that filters impurities, affecting subsequent filtration. Therefore, the device has certain shortcomings.

[0030] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-5 An embodiment of this utility model is provided: an ink supply device for packaging printing, including an ink storage tank 1, a controller 4 and an alarm 5. A stirring component is connected inside the ink storage tank 1. A hollow groove 10 and a circular groove 11 are opened on the inner wall of the ink storage tank 1. A detachable component is connected inside the hollow groove 10 and the circular groove 11. A monitoring component is connected inside the ink storage tank 1.

[0032] The stirring assembly includes a drive motor 3. A top cover 2 is connected to the top of the ink storage tank 1. The drive motor 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the top cover 2. The output end of the drive motor 3 passes through the top cover 2 and is fixedly connected to a stirring rod 6. Stirring blades 7 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the stirring rod 6. Multiple sets of stirring blades 7 are provided. A connecting rod 8 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the stirring rod 6. A scraper 9 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 8. The scraper 9 slides on the inner wall of the ink storage tank 1, which can scrape off and mix the ink adhering to the inner wall of the ink storage tank 1, thereby improving uniformity.

[0033] The detachable components include a filter plate 12, which is slidably connected to a circular groove 11. A sliding groove 13 is formed within the filter plate 12, and a sliding rod 14 is slidably connected within the sliding groove 13. A sliding plate 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding rod 14, and a spring 15 is fixedly connected between the sliding plate 16 and the filter plate 12. A retaining groove is formed at the top of the empty groove 10, and the sliding rod 14 is slidably connected to the retaining groove. The monitoring components include a liquid level sensor, which is connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the ink reservoir 1. A controller 4 and an alarm 5 are both connected to the outer wall of the ink reservoir 1. The position sensors are all electrically connected to the controller 4; the slide plate 16 slides in the empty slot 10; the outer wall of the ink storage tank 1 is fixedly connected to the water outlet pipe 17, which is connected to the circular slot 11; the outer wall of the ink storage tank 1 is connected to the pump body 18; the water inlet of the pump body 18 is connected to the first hose 19; one end of the first hose 19 is connected to the water outlet pipe 17; the water outlet of the pump body 18 is connected to the second hose 20; the spring 15 is sleeved on the outside of the slide rod 14; the scraper 9 is L-shaped to facilitate the scraping off of ink adhering to the inner wall of the ink storage tank 1 for mixing, thereby improving uniformity.

[0034] Working principle: In the ink supply device for packaging and printing, starting the drive motor 3 drives the stirring rod 6 to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring blade 7 and scraper 9 to rotate. This facilitates uniform mixing of the ink in the ink storage tank 1 and scrapes off and mixes the ink adhering to the inner wall of the ink storage tank 1, improving uniformity. It also helps to push impurities on the surface of the filter plate 12 aside, preventing them from obstructing the ink output. When the filter plate 12 needs to be disassembled, pressing down on the sliding plate 16 causes the sliding rod 14 to slide out of the slot at the top of the empty groove 10, facilitating the disassembly of the filter plate 12 for cleaning. For easier replacement, press the slide plate 16 to compress the spring 15, place the filter plate 12 in the circular groove 11, release the slide plate 16, and under the force of the spring 15, the slide plate 16 will move upward, so that the top of the slide rod 14 slides in the slot at the top of the empty groove 10, which is convenient to fix the filter plate 12 and does not affect subsequent filtration. It is also convenient to supply ink downward at one end of the second hose 20. The liquid level sensor is convenient to monitor the remaining amount of ink. When the ink is about to run out, it sends a signal to the controller 4. The controller 4 controls the alarm 5 to sound an alarm, which is convenient to remind the user to add ink in time.

[0035] All electrical components mentioned in this article are electrically connected to an external main controller and 220V AC mains power.
