Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ink removal technology, and in particular to a laser ink removal mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the industrial production system, mold manufacturing and usage play a crucial role. Among these, mold identification and management are of paramount importance, as they are core elements for ensuring traceability in the production process, achieving strict quality control, and realizing efficient production management. As a key tool for producing specific products, molds are reusable, a characteristic that plays an indispensable role in reducing production costs and improving overall production efficiency. By reusing molds multiple times, companies can reduce the cost of purchasing new molds and shorten production preparation time, thereby gaining an advantage in fierce market competition.

[0003] However, during the frequent reuse of molds, the original markings on the mold surface, such as QR codes, barcodes, or serial numbers, are often difficult to completely remove after repeated use. This is especially true when these markings are applied to the mold surface using ink printing or spraying. Because ink has good adhesion, it forms a relatively stubborn coating on the mold surface. During repeated use of the mold, this ink marking is affected by various factors, such as high temperature, high pressure, friction, and chemical corrosion, causing its properties to change and making it even more difficult to remove.

[0004] The traditional approach to this problem is to manually remove the old markings and re-label them, but this process requires a significant investment of manpower. In the context of modern production lines that prioritize efficiency and speed, manual operation is far from meeting the demands of rapid mold changes. This is especially true in large-scale production or scenarios with frequent mold changes, where the drawbacks of manually removing old ink markings from molds become increasingly apparent. Limited operating space makes it difficult for workers to use tools for thorough cleaning; the complex shape of the mold surface increases the difficulty of cleaning, making it hard to reach ink in corners and grooves; and the strong adhesion of the ink itself means that even with considerable time and effort, it is difficult to ensure that the old markings are completely removed, and this can potentially interfere with the recognition of new markings, leading to missed markings.

[0005] Therefore, this application develops a laser ink removal mechanism to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a laser ink removal mechanism to solve the problem of incomplete ink removal from molds in the prior art, which leads to missing codes.

[0007] The technical solution of this utility model is: a laser ink removal mechanism, comprising:

[0008] A conveyor mechanism used to transport molds;

[0009] The transplanting module, located on one side of the first end of the conveying mechanism, moves the mold placed in the storage area onto the conveying mechanism;

[0010] At least one laser ink removal machine is located in the forward direction of the mold on the conveying mechanism, and its emission port irradiates the surface of the conveying mechanism for removing ink from the mold during conveying.

[0011] The labeling machine, located at the tail end of the conveying mechanism, affixes labels to the mold via a rotating mechanism.

[0012] Preferably, the storage area includes a first storage position and a second storage position, and the transplanting module includes two moving ends, which are located at the first storage position and the second storage position respectively. When the transplanting mold moves, the moving end drives the mold at the second storage position to move onto the conveying mechanism, and at the same time drives the mold at the first storage position to move onto the second storage position.

[0013] Preferably, the second storage position is provided with a first driving device, and the driving end of the first driving device is in contact with the mold located in the second storage position, and can drive the mold to rotate along its own central axis.

[0014] Preferably, the conveying mechanism includes a first conveying device and a second conveying device that are perpendicular to each other. The tail end of the first conveying device is connected to the head end of the second conveying device, and a transfer module is provided at the tail end of the first conveying device to transfer the mold of the first conveying device to the second conveying device.

[0015] Preferably, there are two laser ink removal machines, which are arranged sequentially along the movement direction of the first conveying device.

[0016] Preferably, the rotating mechanism includes a second driving device and a swing arm. The driving end of the second driving device is connected to the swing arm. The swing arm rotates in the direction of the second conveying device to move the label on the labeling machine to the position corresponding to the mold and affix it.

[0017] Preferably, a fixing plate is provided below the mold, and the fixing plate has snap-fit ​​parts symmetrically arranged along the center of the mold. There is a gap between the two snap-fit ​​parts. When the product at the center of the mold is fitted onto the snap-fit ​​parts, the two snap-fit ​​parts move closer to each other along the ends away from the mold.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0019] (1) The transfer module quickly transfers the mold to the conveying mechanism. The laser ink removal machine completes ink removal simultaneously during the mold transfer process, and the labeling machine automatically completes labeling. This greatly shortens the mold processing time, reduces manual intervention, meets the needs of large-scale production and high-frequency mold replacement, and significantly improves production efficiency.

[0020] (2) The two moving ends of the transplanting module correspond to the first storage area and the second storage area respectively. When moving, one moving end moves the mold in the second storage position to the conveying mechanism, and the other moves the mold in the first storage position to the second storage position. This process is repeated to achieve efficient and orderly transfer of the mold from the storage area to the conveying mechanism.

[0021] (3) Two laser ink removal machines are arranged in sequence along the direction of mold movement on the first conveyor device to perform multiple ink removal processes on the mold, effectively avoiding ink residue. At the same time, they can adapt to the overall production rhythm of the process and ensure ink removal quality and production efficiency.

[0022] (4) A fixing plate is set under the mold. The fixing plate has two centrally symmetrical snap-fit ​​parts and a gap is reserved in the middle. When the center of the mold is fitted on the snap-fit ​​part, the two snap-fit ​​parts move closer to each other at the ends that are far away from the mold, which stabilizes the mold and prevents the mold from shifting due to vibration or external environmental influence during the transmission process, ensuring accurate labeling and complete ink removal.

[0029] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments:

[0030] like Figures 1-2 As shown, a laser ink removal mechanism includes a conveying mechanism 3, a transfer module 2, a laser ink remover 4, and a labeling machine 6. The conveying mechanism 3 transports the mold 1 along a predetermined path and speed, ensuring that the mold 1 passes through each processing stage sequentially, facilitating subsequent ink removal and labeling operations. The transfer module 2 is located on one side of the beginning of the conveying mechanism 3, moving the mold 1 placed in the storage area 5 onto the conveying mechanism 3. Simultaneously, during the conveying process, the mold 1 passes the laser ink remover 4, whose emission port irradiates the surface of the conveying mechanism 3. When the mold 1 passes the laser ink remover 4 under the drive of the conveying mechanism 3, the high-energy laser beam emitted by the laser ink remover 4 can quickly and effectively remove the ink from the surface of the mold 1. When the ink-removed mold 1 moves to the labeling machine 6 located at the end of the conveying mechanism 3, a rotating mechanism 7 affixes a label to the mold 1.

[0031] In this embodiment, the mold 1 is quickly transferred to the conveying mechanism 3 by the transfer module 2. The laser ink removal machine 4 completes ink removal simultaneously during the transfer of the mold 1. Finally, the labeling machine 6 automatically completes the labeling, which greatly shortens the processing time of the mold 1, reduces manual intervention, meets the needs of large-scale production and high-frequency mold 1 replacement, significantly improves production efficiency, ensures the cleanliness of the surface of the mold 1, provides a good foundation for subsequent labeling operations, and avoids the occurrence of missing labels.

[0032] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the storage area 5 includes two storage positions: a first storage position 51 and a second storage position 52. The transplanting module 2 is equipped with two moving ends 21, which move together on the same horizontal plane. The two moving ends 21 correspond to the first storage position 51 and the second storage position 52 of the storage area 5 in terms of spatial position, that is, one moving end 21 corresponds to the first storage position 51 and the other moving end 21 corresponds to the second storage position 52, ensuring that it can accurately act on the mold 1 in the corresponding position. When the transplanting module 2 is started and begins to move, its working process is as follows: the moving end 21 corresponding to the second storage position 52 will move the mold 1 placed on the second storage position 52 smoothly and accurately to the conveying mechanism 3, so that the mold 1 enters the subsequent processing process. At the same time, the moving end 21 corresponding to the first storage position 51 will move the mold 1 placed on the first storage position 51 to the second storage position 52, completing the position update of the mold 1 in the storage area 5. This cycle is repeated to realize the efficient and orderly transfer of the mold 1 from the storage area 5 to the conveying mechanism 3.

[0033] Furthermore, a first driving device 53 is provided at the second storage position 52 of the storage area 5. The driving end of the first driving device 53 is in direct contact with the mold 1 placed in the second storage position 52. When the first driving device 53 is started, its driving end can drive the mold 1 located in the second storage position 52 to rotate along its own central axis, thereby meeting the position requirements when affixing the code.

[0034] Specifically, the conveying mechanism 3 includes a first conveying device 31 and a second conveying device 32 arranged perpendicularly to each other. The tail end of the first conveying device 31 is connected to the head end of the second conveying device 32. In order to make the path continuous, a transfer module 8 is provided at the tail end of the first conveying device 31. The mold 1 is smoothly transferred from the first conveying device 31 to the second conveying device 32 through the transfer module 8.

[0035] To further explain, both the transfer module 8 and the transplant module 2 are equipped with multiple suction cups at their drive ends for adsorbing and transferring the mold 1, and the drive ends are equipped with electric cylinders to enable the drive ends to move up and down, thereby completing the adsorption of the mold 1.

[0036] To effectively prevent ink residue from remaining on the surface of mold 1 and to ensure that the entire process strictly adheres to the predetermined production rhythm requirements, this embodiment employs two laser ink removal machines 4, which are sequentially positioned along the movement direction of mold 1 on the first conveyor device 31. Furthermore, to achieve precise positioning of the ink on the surface of mold 1 and real-time monitoring of the ink treatment effect, each laser ink removal machine 4 is equipped with a camera (not shown in the figure). The image information collected by the camera allows for timely feedback on the ink treatment status, enabling dynamic adjustment of the operating parameters of the laser ink removal machine 4, thereby ensuring both ink removal quality and production efficiency.

[0037] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the rotating mechanism 7 includes a second driving device 71 and a swing arm 72. The driving end of the second driving device 71 is connected to the swing arm 72. Driven by the second driving device 71, the swing arm 72 rotates regularly around the drive shaft axis of the second driving device 71 in the direction of the second conveying device 32. During the rotation, the swing arm 72 can accurately position the label on the labeling machine 6 and smoothly move it to the precise position corresponding to the mold 1, thereby completing the label application.

[0038] like Figure 4As shown, in order to ensure that the mold 1 remains stable during the movement of the conveying mechanism 3 and that the mold 1 does not shift due to vibration of the conveying mechanism 3 or other external environmental influences, which could lead to labeling deviation or incomplete ink removal, a fixing plate 9 is provided below the mold 1. The fixing plate 9 has two centrally symmetrical locking parts 91, with a certain width gap reserved between the two locking parts 91. When the center position of the mold 1, i.e., when the product is fitted onto the two locking parts 91, the two locking parts 91 move closer to each other along their ends away from the mold 1, thereby achieving a stable locking of the mold 1 and ensuring that the mold 1 maintains a stable position during subsequent processing or operation.
