Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of viscosity testing technology, specifically a viscosity testing device for ink production. Background Technology

[0002] Publication No.: CN215448873U, Title: An Ink Viscosity Tester, which discloses: including a base support, a detection plate, support feet, a column, a lifting system, a tester, a display screen, a power system, a bracket, a magnetic stabilizing bracket, and a rotor. The lifting system on the column and the tester are track-mounted to achieve up-down and back-and-forth movement. The bracket is bolted to the outer shell of the power system. The rotor passes through the through hole of the magnetic stabilizing bracket and is hung on the universal joint of the power system. This ink viscosity tester is designed for ink viscosity testing. A beaker containing ink is placed on the detection plate. The lifting system is adjusted to make the rotor and the ink to be tested in the optimal detection position. The tester is started, and the power system drives the rotor to rotate for detection. A certain magnetic force is generated between the stabilizing magnetic sheet and the magnetic strip. Because the magnetic attraction is small, the stabilizing magnetic sheet will not fix the rotor. As the rotor rotates, multiple sets of magnetic strips and stabilizing magnetic sheets intermittently generate magnetic attraction and repulsion forces. The magnetic force is used to correct the irregular shaking of the rotor during the detection process.

[0003] The aforementioned disclosure utilizes magnetic force to correct irregular rotor swaying during the testing process. In the prior art, the viscosity of non-Newtonian fluid inks is generally measured using a rotational viscometer. However, in the viscosity testing of some inks, such precise measurement is not required. It is only necessary to check whether the viscosity range of different batches of inks of the same type is similar. The rotational viscometer method is relatively cumbersome, thus reducing its measurement efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0022] 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.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-6This utility model provides a technical solution: a viscosity testing device for ink production, including a testing platform 1, a lifting device 4 rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the testing platform 1, the lifting device 4 including a lifting plate 41, a vertically arranged support rod 3 fixedly connected to the side of the testing platform 1, a lifting device 5 slidably connected to the surface of the support rod 3, a dropper 6 being snapped into the end of the lifting device 5, the dropper 6 being located directly above the center of the lifting plate 41, the dropper 6 being used to absorb ink and drip it onto the upper surface of the lifting plate 41, and an arc-shaped groove 42 being formed on the upper surface of the lifting plate 41.

[0024] Specifically, a detection platform 1 is set up, and a lifting device 4 is rotatably set on the upper surface of the detection platform 1. A dropper 6 is set directly above the lifting device 4. The dropper 6 slides up and down on the support rod 3 through the lifting device 5. The height of the dropper 6 is adjusted up and down to squeeze out a drop of ink. The ink falls under the action of gravity. The viscosity of different batches of ink is judged by the range of splashing when the ink drips and the length of the ink string when it drips.

[0025] By setting up a lifting plate 41, which is rotatably mounted on the detection platform 1, the ink dripped on the center of the lifting plate 41 will flow outward under the action of centrifugal force due to the rotation of the lifting plate 41. The higher the viscosity of the ink, the lower the speed of outward flow, thus determining whether the viscosity of different inks is the same.

[0026] Multiple support legs 2 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the testing platform 1, and a drive device 7 is fixedly installed at the center of the lower surface of the testing platform 1. The drive device 7 is used to drive the lifting plate 41 to rotate.

[0027] Specifically, the support leg 2 supports the entire device, and the drive device 7 drives the lifting plate 41 to rotate, providing power for the rotation of the lifting plate 41. When the lifting plate 41 rotates, under the action of centrifugal force, it drives the dripping ink to spread outward. By measuring the diffusion radius of different inks at the same speed and time, it is determined whether the viscosity of the ink is the same in the two tests.

[0028] A T-shaped ring block 44 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the lifting plate 41. A T-shaped ring groove 11 matching the T-shaped ring block 44 is opened on the upper surface of the detection platform 1. The driving device 7 includes a motor 71. The output shaft of the motor 71 extends into the T-shaped ring groove 11 and is fixedly connected to the T-shaped ring block 44.

[0029] Specifically, the T-shaped ring block 44 and the T-shaped ring groove 11 cooperate with each other to achieve stable rotation of the lifting plate 41 on the detection platform 1. The motor 71 is existing technology and provides power for the rotation of the lifting plate 41.

[0030] The inner wall of the arc groove 42 is provided with several second scales 43, and the side of the support rod 3 is provided with a first scale 32.

[0031] Specifically, the radius of ink diffusion under centrifugal force is determined by the second scale 43, and the function of the first scale 32 is to determine the height of the lifting device 5 and the length of ink stringing when it drips. The viscosity of the ink during the two tests can be easily judged by the radius of ink diffusion when it falls onto the support plate 41 and the length of ink stringing.

[0032] The lifting device 5 includes a sliding sleeve 51 that is slidably sleeved on the support rod 3, a limiting sleeve 53 that is sleeved around the periphery of the dropper 6, and a connecting rod 52 that is provided between the sliding sleeve 51 and the limiting sleeve 53. The two ends of the connecting rod 52 are fixedly connected to the sliding sleeve 51 and the limiting sleeve 53, respectively.

[0033] Specifically, the sliding sleeve 51 slides up and down on the support rod 3, which can drive the dropper 6 to slide up and down, thereby adjusting the height of the ink drop. The dropper 6 is snapped into the limiting sleeve 53, which can be easily installed and removed. A T-shaped block 511 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 51, and a T-shaped groove 31 matching the T-shaped block 511 is opened on the side of the support rod 3.

[0034] A locking knob 8 is provided on the periphery of the sliding sleeve 51. The locking knob 8 is threadedly connected to the sliding sleeve 51, and the end of the locking knob 8 extends into the sliding sleeve 51 and abuts against the support rod 3.

[0035] Specifically, the locking knob 8 locks the height of the sliding sleeve 51, fixing it at the corresponding height.

[0036] A locking bolt 54 is provided on the periphery of the limiting sleeve 53. The locking bolt 54 is threadedly connected to the limiting sleeve 53, and the end of the locking bolt 54 extends into the limiting sleeve 53 and abuts against the dropper 6.

[0037] Specifically, the locking bolt 54 enables convenient installation, locking, and disassembly of the dropper 6.
