[0030] See appendix Figure 1-6 An automatic plate changing mechanism for a screen printing machine, as described in this embodiment, includes a controller, and further includes a feeder head adjusting motor 1, a guide rail adjusting motor 7, and a side guide rail adjusting motor 8. The feeder head adjusting motor 1 is driven by a first lead screw 10, which is threadedly engaged with a nut. The nut is connected to the paper feed feeder head 2. The first lead screw 10 extends in a front-to-back direction. The paper feed feeder head 2 connects to a paper feeding unit 3 and a paper delivery unit 4. The paper feeding unit 3 includes a paper feeding guide rail 5 and a paper feeding table 6. The paper feeding unit 3 also includes a frame 12. The frame 12 is height-adjustable, and a platform adjustment motor 13 is provided on the frame 12. The platform adjustment motor 13 is connected to a worm gear 14, which meshes with a worm wheel 15. The worm wheel 15 is connected to an adjustment rod 16. One end of the adjustment rod 16 is rotatably mounted on the frame 12, and the other end of the adjustment rod 16 is threadedly fitted with an adjustment seat 17. The adjustment seat 17 is connected to the paper feeding platform 6. The adjustment rod 16 extends in the left-right direction, and the worm gear 14 extends in the front-back direction. The platform adjustment motor 13 is controlled and connected to the controller.

[0031] The guide adjustment motor 7 is driven by a second lead screw 11, which is threadedly engaged with the slide block. The slide block is connected to the paper feeding guide 5, and the second lead screw 11 extends in the left-right direction.

[0032] The side guide 9 includes a body 18. The side guide adjustment motor 8 is driven by a third lead screw 19, which is threaded into the body 18. The side guide 9 is disposed at the paper output end of the paper feeding unit 4. The side guide adjustment motor 8, the guide adjustment motor 7, and the feeder head adjustment motor 1 are all controlled and connected to the controller. The side guide 9 also includes a pull guide plate. The body is provided with a rotating shaft and a sliding rod. A rotary air valve and an end face cam are sleeved on the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft drives the rotary air valve and the end face cam to rotate. The pull guide plate is provided with a group of small holes that cooperate with the rotary air valve. A sliding seat is sleeved on the sliding rod. The body is provided with a moving groove for the pull guide plate to move. The moving groove extends in the left and right direction. The pull guide plate is connected to the sliding seat. The sliding seat is connected to a cam ball that cooperates with the end face cam.

[0033] In this embodiment, when the paper size changes, the paper size is input to the controller. The controller sends adjustment signals to the feeder head adjustment motor 1, the guide adjustment motor 7, and the side guide adjustment motor 8 according to the paper size. The corresponding motors drive the connected objects to adjust to the correct position through the corresponding lead screws. When the paper reaches the printing position and the left and right differences are too large, the controller activates the table plate adjustment motor 13, and the paper feeding table 6 moves left and right to adjust to the correct position. When the paper is waiting to be printed at the paper output end of the paper feeding unit 4, the rotating shaft drives the end face cam and the rotary air valve to rotate. The end face cam drives the cam ball to drive the sliding seat, and the guide plate moves left and right. When the guide plate moves to the correct position, the air distribution through the rotary air valve creates a downward suction force through the small orifice group, which holds the paper. When the end face cam rotates to the lower position, the guide plate returns to its original position with the paper, and the rotary air valve continues to rotate to release air and release the paper. The side guide 9 is a mature technology.

[0034] Among them, the paper feeder head 2 moves back and forth to ensure reliable paper suction; the paper feeding platform 6 limits the adjustment range of the paper feeding guide 5. When the left and right difference is small, only the paper feeding guide 5 is adjusted to position the paper on the paper feeding platform 6 in the left and right direction. When the left and right difference is large, the paper feeding platform 6 also needs to be adjusted; the paper waits for printing at the paper output end of the paper feeding unit 4. The side guide 9 positions the paper once before printing. A positioning plate can be set on the main body to align the paper. The paper feeding unit 4 is a mature technology; the worm gear 14 extends in the front and back direction, so that the motor is arranged in the front and back direction. The frame 12 maintains the original small gap with the two side frames. The four corners of the frame 12 are driven by chains to lift and lower. The chains are driven by motors. This is a mature technology.

[0035] The above description represents the preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. For those skilled in the art, various improvements, modifications, or equivalent substitutions can be made without departing from the equivalent inventive concept disclosed in this utility model, and these can also be considered as part of the scope of protection of this utility model.
