Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic processing equipment technology, and in particular to an integrated equipment for ceramic tableware relief printing and glaze bonding. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of ceramic tableware, relief printing and glaze bonding are key processes to enhance the decorative effect and texture of the product. In the traditional production model, these two processes are usually carried out separately and require multiple machines to operate in stages.

[0003] Existing technologies have the following problems:

[0004] Currently, ceramic tableware blanks after embossing printing require manual handling to the glazing equipment. This process is not only labor-intensive but also prone to damage due to improper handling. Furthermore, the handling time extends the overall production cycle, resulting in low process efficiency. Traditional equipment often requires downtime for loading and unloading, leading to a low percentage of effective operating time. For example, after completing one batch of embossing printing, a single machine must stop to remove the blanks and reload them before the next batch can begin. Glazing equipment faces similar issues, severely hindering production efficiency and causing significant downtime losses. Moreover, manual transfer of blanks from the printing to glazing equipment makes it difficult to ensure consistent blank placement, potentially causing misalignment between the glazing position and the embossed pattern, affecting product quality stability and increasing the defect rate. Additionally, separate embossing and glazing equipment require independent production spaces, increasing space usage costs for companies with limited production space and hindering centralized production management.

[0005] To address these shortcomings, we have proposed an integrated device for ceramic tableware embossing and glaze bonding. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing an integrated device for ceramic tableware relief printing and glaze bonding.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: an integrated device for ceramic tableware relief printing and glaze bonding, comprising a base, a speed-regulating motor fixedly installed inside the base, and a first gear installed at the output end of the speed-regulating motor; a rotating disk rotatably connected to the base, and a second gear fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the rotating disk, the second gear meshing with the first gear; a support plate detachably installed on the top surface of the rotating disk; a glaze collecting baffle welded to the top surface of the rotating disk; and glaze collecting pipes opened inside both the rotating disk and the base. Both sides of the outer wall are welded with brackets, and a servo electric cylinder and a drive motor are fixedly installed on the two brackets respectively. The telescopic end of the servo electric cylinder is equipped with an embossed printing mold that works with the support plate. The output end of the drive motor is equipped with a third gear. A glazing pipe is rotatably connected to the bracket, and a spray nozzle is fixedly installed on the surface of the glazing pipe. A high-speed rotary joint is installed at one end of the glazing pipe. A fourth gear is fixedly installed on the surface of the glazing pipe, and the fourth gear meshes with the third gear. A liquid suction pump is installed on the bracket, and the liquid suction pump is connected to the high-speed rotary joint through a liquid pipe.

[0008] A control switch is fixedly installed on the surface of the base, and the control switch is electrically connected to the servo cylinder, drive motor, suction pump and speed regulating motor through wires.

[0009] The support plate is provided in multiple ways, and the multiple support plates are distributed in a ring array on the surface of the rotating disk.

[0010] The spray nozzle is provided in multiple parts, and the multiple spray nozzles are equidistantly distributed on the surface of the glaze spray tube.

[0011] The glaze collecting baffle is a circular tubular structure.

[0012] The diameter of the glaze collecting baffle is larger than the diameter of the rotating disk.

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.

[0023] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A ceramic tableware relief printing and glaze bonding integrated device includes a base 1, a speed-regulating motor 2 is fixedly installed inside the base 1, and a first gear 3 is installed at the output end of the speed-regulating motor 2.

[0024] The speed-regulating motor 2 is located inside the base 1, and its output end is connected to the first gear 3. The speed-regulating motor 2 provides power to the equipment and transmits power through the first gear 3 at the output end. The speed can be adjusted to control the intermittent rotation frequency of the rotating disk 4. The speed adjustment is adapted to the processing time of different processes. For example, when the embossing printing takes a long time, the speed can be reduced to extend the dwell time and ensure that each process is synchronized and coordinated.

[0025] A rotating disk 4 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and a second gear 5 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the rotating disk 4, and the second gear 5 meshes with the first gear 3.

[0026] The rotating disk 4 is located above the base 1 and can rotate freely; the second gear 5 is fixed at the center of the bottom surface of the rotating disk 4 and meshes with the first gear 3. The first gear 3 drives the second gear 5 to rotate through meshing, thereby driving the rotating disk 4 to rotate; by utilizing the stability of gear transmission, the intermittent rotation accuracy of the rotating disk 4 is ensured, and the smooth intermittent movement of the rotating disk 4 is achieved, ensuring that the support plate 8 accurately stops at each workstation and avoiding process misalignment.

[0027] A support plate 8 is detachably installed on the top surface of the rotating disk 4.

[0028] The support plate 8 is installed on the top surface of the rotating disk 4 and adopts a detachable structure, such as bolt connection, to place ceramic blanks. It supports the blanks to maintain stability in each process. The detachable design makes it easy to replace the support plate 8 of different specifications according to the blank size, improving the versatility of the equipment; it also avoids the blanks from directly contacting the rotating disk 4, reducing contamination.

[0029] A glaze collecting baffle 6 is welded to the top surface of the rotating disk 4, and glaze collecting pipes 7 are provided inside both the rotating disk 4 and the base 1.

[0030] The glaze collecting baffle 6 is welded to the top edge of the rotating disk 4 and is in the shape of a circular tube. The glaze collecting pipe 7 runs through the interior of the rotating disk 4 and the base 1 and is connected to the bottom of the glaze collecting baffle 6. The glaze collecting baffle 6 blocks the glaze splashed during glazing to prevent contamination of the equipment. The glaze collecting pipe 7 guides the excess glaze collected by the baffle into the recycling device, reducing glaze waste and production costs. It also keeps the equipment clean and reduces the amount of cleaning work.

[0031] The base 1 has brackets 9 welded to both sides of its outer wall, and a servo electric cylinder 10 and a drive motor 12 are fixedly installed on the two brackets 9 respectively.

[0032] The brackets 9 are symmetrically welded to both sides of the base 1. The right bracket 9 is equipped with a servo electric cylinder 10, and the left bracket 9 is equipped with a drive motor 12. The brackets 9 provide fixed support for the servo electric cylinder 10 and the drive motor 12. The servo electric cylinder 10 drives the relief printing mold 11 to move up and down, and the drive motor 12 provides rotational power for the glaze spraying pipe 14, ensuring that the two power components work stably and avoiding vibration from affecting the processing accuracy. The symmetrical layout makes the equipment structure compact and saves space.

[0033] The telescopic end of the servo electric cylinder 10 is equipped with an embossed printing mold 11 that works in conjunction with the support plate 8.

[0034] The relief printing mold 11 is connected to the telescopic end of the servo cylinder 10 and is located directly above the support plate 8. The servo cylinder 10 drives the mold to move up and down to press the blank on the support plate 8 to form a relief pattern. Through the precise control of the servo cylinder 10, the pressing force and depth of the mold are consistent, and the relief pattern is uniform and clear. It is precisely aligned with the support plate 8 to avoid printing deviation.

[0035] A third gear 13 is installed at the output end of the drive motor 12. A glazing pipe 14 is rotatably connected to the bracket 9. A nozzle 15 is fixedly installed on the surface of the glazing pipe 14. A fourth gear 17 is fixedly installed on the surface of the glazing pipe 14, and the fourth gear 17 meshes with the third gear 13.

[0036] The third gear 13 is located at the output end of the drive motor 12, and the fourth gear 17 is fixed on the glazing tube 14, with the two meshing together. The glazing tube 14 is rotatably connected to the bracket 9, and the nozzles 15 are evenly distributed on the surface of the glazing tube 14. The drive motor 12 drives the fourth gear 17 to rotate through the third gear 13, causing the glazing tube 14 to rotate. The nozzles 15 atomize and spray the glaze onto the blank. The rotation of the glazing tube 14, in conjunction with multiple nozzles 15, achieves uniform glaze coverage on the surface of the blank, especially suitable for all-round glazing of relief grooves. The gear transmission ensures precise rotation angle and avoids local missed spraying or glaze accumulation.

[0037] A high-speed rotary joint 16 is installed at one end of the glazing pipe 14, and a liquid suction pump 18 is installed on the bracket 9. The liquid suction pump 18 is connected to the high-speed rotary joint 16 through the liquid pipe 19.

[0038] A high-speed rotary joint 16 is connected to one end of the glazing tube 14; a suction pump 18 is fixed on the bracket 9 and is connected to the high-speed rotary joint 16 through a liquid pipe 19. The suction pump 18 draws glaze material and sends it into the glazing tube 14 through the liquid pipe 19 and the high-speed rotary joint 16. The high-speed rotary joint 16 solves the problem of the liquid pipe 19 getting tangled when the glazing tube 14 rotates, realizing stable delivery of glaze material, while not affecting the rotation function of the glazing tube 14, ensuring a continuous and smooth glazing process.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A control switch 20 is fixedly installed on the surface of the base 1, and the control switch 20 is electrically connected to the servo cylinder 10, the drive motor 12, the liquid suction pump 18 and the speed regulating motor 2 through wires.

[0040] The control switch 20 is located on the surface of the base 1 and is connected to each power component via wires. It centrally controls the start and stop of the equipment and the adjustment of parameters, such as motor speed, electric cylinder stroke, and pump flow rate, simplifying the operation process. Operators can coordinate each process with a single switch, reducing the risk of misoperation. It also facilitates real-time parameter adjustment to adapt to the processing requirements of different blanks.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 Multiple support plates 8 are provided, and the multiple support plates 8 are distributed in a ring array on the surface of the rotating disk 4.

[0042] Multiple support plates 8 are evenly distributed in a ring around the center of the rotating disk 4. Each support plate 8 corresponds to a blank, enabling simultaneous operation at multiple stations. When one support plate 8 is at the relief printing station, another can be at the glazing station, where loading and unloading can be done simultaneously without stopping the machine, greatly improving efficiency.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 Multiple nozzles 15 are provided, and the multiple nozzles 15 are equidistantly distributed on the surface of the glaze spray tube 14.

[0044] The nozzles 15 are arranged at equal intervals along the length of the glazing tube 14 to expand the glazing coverage area, ensure that the surface of the blank (especially the relief texture) is uniformly glazed, reduce glazing dead corners, avoid defects caused by insufficient glaze in the relief groove, and improve the glaze adhesion quality.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 The glaze collecting baffle 6 is a circular tubular structure, and the diameter of the glaze collecting baffle 6 is larger than the diameter of the rotating disk 4.

[0046] A circular tubular glaze collecting baffle 6 surrounds the rotating disk 4, with a larger diameter, completely covering the rotating disk 4 and the glaze spraying area above it. It blocks the glaze splashed during glaze spraying from all directions, preventing the glaze from splashing onto the base 1 or the ground, improving the efficiency of glaze recycling, keeping the production environment clean, and reducing the cost of subsequent cleaning.

[0047] Working principle: During operation, the operator starts the equipment via control switch 20. The speed-regulating motor 2 drives the rotating disk 4 to rotate intermittently through the meshing of the first gear 3 and the second gear 5. When the support plates 8 on the rotating disk 4 reach the feeding station in sequence, the operator places the ceramic blank. The blank moves with the rotating disk 4 to the relief printing station. The servo cylinder 10 drives the relief printing mold 11 to descend, pressing the blank to form a relief pattern. After completion, the mold resets. Next, the blank is sent to the glazing station. The drive motor 12 drives the glazing pipe 14 to rotate through the third gear 13 and the fourth gear 17. At the same time, the liquid pump 18 sends the glaze into the glazing pipe 14 through the liquid pipe 19 and the high-speed rotary joint 16. Multiple nozzles 15 spray the glaze evenly onto the relief pattern. Excess glaze is blocked by the glaze collecting baffle 6 and passes through the glaze collecting pipe 7. The process involves recycling; finally, the glazed blanks are brought to the unloading station, where operators remove the finished products. Throughout the process, all stations operate synchronously, achieving continuous production.

[0048] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative or explanatory of the principles of this utility model and do not constitute a limitation thereof. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be included within its protection scope.
