Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of ink scraping and moisturizing mechanisms, and in particular to a distributed ink scraping and moisturizing mechanism with flipping function. Background Technology
[0002] An inkjet printer is a printing device that sprays liquid ink into tiny droplets through nozzles and attaches them to paper. Its core technologies are divided into thermal and piezoelectric. Random inkjet printers have become the mainstream due to their simple structure and low cost, which has led to the development of thermal bubble and micro-piezoelectric technologies. The latter improves color accuracy by using room temperature inkjet printing.
[0003] After searching, it was found that most existing ink cartridge printhead scraping devices adopt a separate scraping and protection structure, and only use one scraper. All printheads are scraped by one scraper, which easily leads to dust on the printhead base plate being scraped onto the printhead, increasing the probability of printhead damage. In addition, the scraping effect is generally poor and the efficiency is low. Therefore, a distributed scraping and moisturizing mechanism with flipping is needed to meet people's needs. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a distributed, rotating ink-scraping and moisturizing mechanism to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a distributed, rotating, ink-scraping and moisturizing mechanism, comprising a housing, a motor disposed on one side of the housing, a transmission link disposed on the output end of the motor, a driven link rotatably connected to one end of the transmission link, and a long link rotatably connected to one end of the driven link, the long link being arranged parallel to the longitudinal direction of the housing, and several rotating shafts rotatably connected inside the housing, each rotating shaft being arranged parallel to the short direction of the housing, the several rotating shafts being evenly distributed along the longitudinal direction of the housing, and each rotating shaft being provided with an ink scraper seat. The two adjacent doctor blade holders are staggered, and the positions of every two doctor blade holders are corresponding. Each doctor blade holder has a pin slidably connected to both sides. A doctor blade is slidably connected from top to bottom inside the doctor blade holder. The two pins are inserted into the two sides of the doctor blade at one end inside the doctor blade holder. A spring plate is connected to the outside side of the pin. A spring is connected between the spring plate and the outer wall of the doctor blade holder. A handle is provided on the outside of the spring plate. A short connecting rod is connected to the outside end of each rotating shaft. Several short connecting rods are arranged in parallel and are rotatably connected to a long connecting rod.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0021] Reference Figure 1-4 A distributed, rotating, ink-retaining mechanism includes a housing 1. A motor 2 is mounted on the outer side of the housing 1. A transmission link 3 is mounted on the output end of the motor 2. A driven link 4 is rotatably connected to one end of the transmission link 3. A long link 5 is rotatably connected to one end of the driven link 4. The long link 5 is arranged parallel to the longitudinal direction of the housing 1. Several rotating shafts 6 are rotatably connected inside the housing 1. Each rotating shaft 6 is arranged parallel to the short direction of the housing 1. The rotating shafts 6 are evenly spaced along the longitudinal direction of the housing 1. Each rotating shaft 6 is equipped with an ink-retaining seat 7. Adjacent ink-retaining seats 7 are staggered. Two spaced-apart doctor blades 7 are positioned opposite each other. Each doctor blade 7 has a pin 8 slidably connected to both sides. A doctor blade 9 is slidably connected from top to bottom inside the doctor blade 7. One end of each of the two pins 8 inside the doctor blade 7 is inserted into the two sides of the doctor blade 9. A spring plate 10 is connected to one side outside the pin 8. A spring 11 is connected between the spring plate 10 and the outer wall of the doctor blade 7. A handle 12 is provided on the outer side of the spring plate 10. A short connecting rod 13 is connected to one end of each rotating shaft 6 located outside the housing 1. Several short connecting rods 13 are arranged in parallel and are rotatably connected to a long connecting rod 5.
[0022] The motor 2 drives the transmission link 3 to perform circular motion. Through the rotational connection of the driven link 4, the long link 5 drives the short link 13 to rotate, thereby realizing the rotation effect of the rotating shaft 6. This enables the angle adjustment of the doctor blade seat 7 and doctor blade 9 on each rotating shaft 6, allowing the doctor blade 9 to perform the doctor blade operation on the ink cartridge printhead. Furthermore, the arrangement of multiple doctor blades 9 and their different positional distribution allows each printhead to achieve an individual doctor blade effect, improving doctor blade efficiency. After the doctor blade 9 finishes doctoring, the printhead module descends to the housing 1. The sealing effect between the housing 1 and the printhead module can be used to keep the printhead module moist. The cooperation between the pin 8, spring plate 10, spring 11 and handle 12 ensures the installation stability of the doctor blade 9 on the doctor blade seat 7, and makes the installation and removal of the doctor blade 9 on the doctor blade seat 7 more convenient, which also helps with the cleaning of the doctor blade 9 later.
[0023] Specifically, in this embodiment, a sealing strip 14 is provided at the top opening of the box body 1. The sealing strip 14 is in a closed loop shape, which improves the sealing between the nozzle module and the box body 1 and ensures the moisturizing effect.
[0024] Specifically, in this embodiment, bearings 15 are provided in the inner walls of both sides of the box 1 along the longitudinal direction, and the two ends of the same rotating shaft 6 are fitted into two bearings 15 in the same axial direction to ensure that the rotating shaft 6 rotates smoothly.
[0025] Specifically, in this embodiment, a number of oil seals 16 are provided on the inner wall of the box body 1. Each oil seal 16 is sleeved on the end of the rotating shaft 6 to improve the internal sealing of the box body 1 and ensure the moisturizing effect.
[0026] Specifically, in this embodiment, the pin 8 has a rectangular cross-section, and the top edge of the side near the scraper plate 9 is beveled to prevent the scraper plate 9 from shaking after installation, while also making the scraper plate 9 easier to operate during the pressing and installation process.
[0027] Specifically, in this embodiment, a sleeve 17 is provided on the outer wall of the ink scraper 7, and the spring 11 and spring plate 10 are both arranged inside the sleeve 17 to provide protection for the spring 11 and prevent corrosion.
[0028] Specifically, in this embodiment, the outer diameter of one end of the handle 12 connected to the spring plate 10 is smaller than the inner diameter of the sleeve 17 and is arranged inside the sleeve 17, while the outer diameter of the other end is larger than the outer diameter of the sleeve 17 and is arranged outside the sleeve 17, which helps to pull the handle 12.
[0029] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
