Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of printing machinery manufacturing technology, and in particular to a printing gravure cylinder exposure mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] In the printing industry, the gravure cylinder exposure mechanism is one of the core components, and its positioning accuracy and surface properties directly affect the printing quality. As the printing industry develops towards higher precision and higher efficiency, traditional exposure technology faces challenges such as poor exposure uniformity and insufficient registration accuracy. Therefore, a new gravure cylinder exposure mechanism for printing is needed.
[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent publication number: CN204790299U, which discloses a printing gravure cylinder exposure mechanism, including a base, a sliding groove at the bottom of the base, a pad block at one end of the base, a pad plate on the pad block, a card seat on the pad plate, a card seat with a card groove, an exposure cylinder between the card seats, an exposure cylinder with a card block, the card block being disposed in the card groove, the card block having a buckle groove, and the buckle groove being disposed in the card groove.
[0004] The aforementioned utility model allows the printing plate to be removed from the surface of the gravure cylinder and installed on the exposure cylinder. The holder supports the exposure cylinder with a locking block, thus facilitating the exposure of the printing plate and making it convenient to place the printing plate on the exposure cylinder for cleaning and repair processes. The sliding groove facilitates the sliding of the base, making it easy to transport. However, in actual use, the existence of the above-mentioned device can easily cause displacement and shaking when the cylinder rotates, affecting the exposure accuracy and registration stability. At the same time, repeated manual calibration is required when changing plates, which reduces production efficiency and increases the risk of operational errors. Utility Model Content

[0015] The fixed block is rotatably connected to a connecting shaft, and a second hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting shaft.
[0016] The above technical solution uses a fixed block to limit the movement of the connecting shaft, which in turn limits the movement of the second hydraulic cylinder.

[0019] The above technical solution involves using a second hydraulic cylinder to move a U-shaped block, which in turn moves a U-shaped plate.
[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0021] A light source is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the U-shaped plate, and a limit post is slidably connected inside the U-shaped plate.
[0022] The above technical solution uses a U-shaped plate to adjust the angle of the light source, and a limiting post that slides inside the U-shaped plate to limit its movement.
[0023] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0038] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0039] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 An embodiment of this utility model is provided: a printing gravure cylinder exposure mechanism, including a support block 1, a connecting block 2 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support block 1, a first hydraulic cylinder 3 fixedly connected to the inside of the connecting block 2, a push block 4 fixedly connected to the output end of the first hydraulic cylinder 3, an H-shaped block 5 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the push block 4, a sliding column 6 slidably connected to the inner wall of the H-shaped block 5, a limiting plate 7 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding column 6, a rotating piece 8 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the limiting plate 7, the inside of the rotating piece 8 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the support block 1, a cylinder body 9 being snapped onto the lower surface of the limiting plate 7 and the upper surface of the support block 1, and a support assembly 10 being provided on the lower surface of the support block 1;
[0040] Specifically, the support block 1 provides fixed support for the connecting block 2, which in turn provides fixed support for the first hydraulic cylinder 3. The first hydraulic cylinder 3 drives the push block 4, which in turn drives the H-shaped block 5 to move. As the H-shaped block 5 moves, it causes the sliding column 6 to slide on the inner wall of the H-shaped block 5, thus limiting the sliding column 6. The sliding column 6 then drives the limiting plate 7, which in turn drives the rotating piece 8 to rotate on the outer wall of the support block 1, limiting the rotating piece 8. The limiting plate 7 limits and fixes the roller body 9. The groove on the upper surface of the support block 1 provides auxiliary support and limitation for the roller body 9.
[0041] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 The support assembly 10 includes a base 1001, the upper surface of which is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the support block 1, and a support plate 1002 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base 1001; a connecting plate 11 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support plate 1002, and a fixing block 12 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting plate 11.
[0042] Specifically, the base 1001 provides fixed support for the support block 1, the base 1001 provides fixed support for the support plate 1002, the support plate 1002 provides fixed support for the connecting plate 11, and the connecting plate 11 provides fixed support for the fixing block 12.
[0043] Reference Figure 4 A connecting shaft 13 is rotatably connected inside the fixed block 12, and a second hydraulic cylinder 14 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting shaft 13; a U-shaped block 15 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second hydraulic cylinder 14, and a U-shaped plate 16 is rotatably connected inside the U-shaped block 15; a light source 20 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the U-shaped plate 16, and a limit post 17 is slidably connected inside the U-shaped plate 16; a limit groove 18 is formed inside the U-shaped plate 16, and the outer wall of the limit post 17 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limit groove 18; a fixed plate 19 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the limit post 17, and the outer wall of the fixed plate 19 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting plate 11.
[0044] Specifically, the second hydraulic cylinder 14 drives the U-shaped block 15, which in turn drives the U-shaped plate 16 to move. As the U-shaped plate 16 moves, it slides internally against the outer wall of the limiting post 17. The limiting groove 18 inside the U-shaped plate 16 then limits its movement. The U-shaped plate 16 then drives the light source 20 to adjust its angle. At the same time, the second hydraulic cylinder 14 drives the connecting shaft 13 to rotate inside the fixed block 12. The fixed block 12 limits the connecting shaft 13, which in turn limits the second hydraulic cylinder 14, thus achieving precise control of the angle of the light source 20.
[0045] Working principle: When this mechanism is needed, the roller body 9 is placed on the upper surface of the support blocks 1 on both sides of the base 1001, and then the first hydraulic cylinder 3 inside the connecting block 2 is activated. The first hydraulic cylinder 3 drives the push block 4, which in turn drives the H-shaped block 5 to move. While the H-shaped block 5 is moving, the sliding column 6 slides on the inner wall of the H-shaped block 5. Then, the sliding column 6 drives the limiting plate 7, which in turn drives the rotating piece 8 to rotate on the outer wall of the support block 1. At the same time, the limiting plate 7 limits and fixes the roller body 9, ensuring that the gravure roller body 9 is stably fixed during the exposure process, avoiding displacement and vibration, and ensuring exposure accuracy.
[0046] Then, the second hydraulic cylinder 14 is activated, which drives the U-shaped block 15 and then the U-shaped plate 16 to move. While the U-shaped plate 16 moves, it is internally slidably connected to the outer wall of the limiting post 17. The U-shaped plate 16 then drives the light source 20 to adjust its angle. At the same time, the activation of the second hydraulic cylinder 14 drives the connecting shaft 13 to rotate inside the fixed block 12, thereby limiting the second hydraulic cylinder 14 and precisely controlling the angle of the light source 20. This eliminates uneven edge exposure and dot deformation, improves the plate exposure quality, meets the exposure uniformity requirements of high-precision printing, and significantly reduces the waste rate. This mechanism can not only quickly adapt to rollers of different sizes, improve plate changing efficiency, enhance equipment versatility and production efficiency, and ensure that the gravure roller is stably fixed during the plate exposure process, avoiding displacement and vibration and ensuring exposure accuracy, but also precisely control the angle of the light source 20, eliminate uneven edge exposure and dot deformation, improve the plate exposure quality, meet the exposure uniformity requirements of high-precision printing, and significantly reduce the waste rate.
[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
