Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of printing equipment, and in particular to a gravure printing machine with a detachable flattening roller. Background Technology
[0002] In modern gravure printing production, the flattening roller, as a key component to ensure the flat transport of printing materials, has a significant impact on printing quality and production efficiency.
[0003] Currently, the flattening roller assembly of our existing gravure printing machine has a structural defect due to long-term operation. The original flattening roller shaft diameter and the diameter of the bearing rollers in the matching bearing model are too small, resulting in severe wear during high-frequency production operation. According to statistics, the original assembly has required multiple bearing replacements and frequent downtime for maintenance, leading to decreased production efficiency and increased annual maintenance costs, which has become a key pain point affecting the stability of the equipment.
[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the applicant believes that there is a defect in the key components being difficult to disassemble and assemble quickly. Utility Model Content
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application provides a gravure printing machine with a detachable flattening roller.
[0006] This application provides a gravure printing machine with a detachable flattening roller, which adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A gravure printing machine with a detachable flattening roller includes a main frame, a flattening mechanism, a printing plate cylinder mechanism, and an ink trough mechanism. The flattening mechanism includes a flattening roller body, bearings, and multiple quick-release mechanisms. The two ends of the flattening roller body are respectively mounted on corresponding quick-release mechanisms via bearings, and the flattening roller body is rotatably connected to the quick-release mechanisms. The quick-release mechanisms are mounted on the main frame and are detachably connected to the main frame. The printing plate cylinder mechanism is mounted on one side of the main frame of the flattening mechanism and is rotatably connected to the main frame. The ink trough mechanism is mounted on the main frame at the bottom of the printing plate cylinder mechanism and is slidably connected to the main frame.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the printing plate cylinder mechanism is installed on the main frame, and the printing plate cylinder mechanism is detachably connected to the main frame. The ink trough mechanism is slidably connected to the main frame. The flattening roller is connected to the main frame through multiple quick-release mechanisms, and the quick-release mechanisms themselves are detachable from the main frame. This eliminates the complicated disassembly steps in traditional equipment. When the flattening roller wears or deforms due to long-term use, or when it is necessary to replace the flattening roller with a different specification according to the printing material, disassembly and assembly can be completed quickly, greatly shortening downtime for maintenance and improving equipment utilization.
[0009] Preferably, the diameter of the flattening roller is fifty millimeters, and the inner diameter of the bearing is adapted to the diameter of the flattening roller.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solutions, the cross-sectional area of the flattening roller is greatly increased after the diameter of the flattening roller is thickened, and its resistance to bending and deformation is significantly improved. This solves the problem of frequent bearing damage, improves the running stability of the flattening roller, and enhances the reliability of the 6305 bearing. The combination of the two can reduce the frequency of equipment downtime caused by roller or bearing failure and improve production continuity.
[0011] Preferably, the quick-release mechanism includes an upper cover, a flattening roller seat, and a quick-opening and closing mechanism. The flattening roller seat is mounted on the main frame and is detachably connected to the main frame. One end of each of the two quick-opening and closing mechanisms is mounted on the main frame on both sides of the flattening roller seat, and the other end of the quick-opening and closing mechanism is mounted on the upper cover. The upper cover is detachably connected to the quick-opening and closing mechanism.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the flattening roller seat is installed on the main frame. The quick opening and closing mechanism can realize the quick separation and closing of the top cover and the flattening roller seat through one-click fastening and unlocking. The bearing can be checked or replaced. The flattening roller seat and the main frame are detachably connected. During installation, the positional accuracy of the flattening roller seat on the frame can be ensured, avoiding bearing coaxiality errors caused by manual alignment deviation.
[0013] Preferably, the quick-opening and closing mechanism includes a guide assembly, a first hydraulic rod, and a locking device. The working end of the first hydraulic rod is connected to one side of the guide assembly, the upper cover is connected to the other side of the guide assembly, and the locking device is installed on the guide assembly. The locking device is located on the guide assembly so that the locking device and the guide assembly are locked together and cannot move relative to each other.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the first hydraulic rod provides driving force through the hydraulic system, and the cover moves at a constant speed during the opening and closing process. The stroke of the hydraulic rod can be precisely adjusted by the throttle valve in the oil circuit. Under the drive of the hydraulic rod, the cover moves axially along the guide assembly, reducing the radial offset and ensuring that the coaxiality error between the cover and the mounting hole of the flattening roller seat is less than the allowable value, thus avoiding abnormal bearing stress due to eccentricity.
[0015] Preferably, the printing plate cylinder mechanism includes a cylinder body, a cylinder base, a geared motor, and a doctor blade device. Two sets of cylinder bases are respectively installed at both ends of the cylinder body, and the cylinder body is rotatably connected to the cylinder bases. The cylinder bases are detachably connected to the main frame at both ends of the cylinder body. The geared motor is installed on the main frame on one side of the cylinder body, and the base of the geared motor is detachably connected to the main frame. The working end of the geared motor is connected to the cylinder body, and the geared motor provides rotation for the cylinder body. The doctor blade device is installed on the main frame above the cylinder body, and the doctor blade device is movably connected to the main frame. The doctor blade device is used to scrape off excess ink from the cylinder surface.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the roller base, the geared motor base and the main frame are all detachably connected. The geared motor is directly connected to the roller body, and the roller speed can be precisely adjusted according to printing needs. The doctor blade device is installed above the roller body and is movably connected to the main frame, flexibly adjusting the contact pressure between the doctor blade device and the printing plate roller surface to ensure that the doctor blade device can closely contact the roller surface, completely scrape off the ink in the blank area, and make the ink in the image area full and clear.
[0017] Preferably, the ink reservoir mechanism includes an ink reservoir, a second hydraulic rod, an electric linear guide rail, and a slider. Two sets of electric linear guide rails are installed on both sides of the main frame below the printing plate cylinder mechanism, and the electric linear guide rails are detachably connected to the main frame. Two sets of sliders are respectively installed on the corresponding electric linear guide rails, and the sliders are slidably connected to the linear guide rails. Two sets of second hydraulic rods are respectively installed on the corresponding sliders, and the base of the second hydraulic rod is detachably connected to the slider. The working ends of the two sets of second hydraulic rods are respectively connected to both ends of the ink reservoir.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, two sets of electric linear guides are installed on both sides below the printing plate cylinder. The slider can move laterally on the guide rails, driving the ink dispensing tank to be precisely positioned. The second hydraulic rod provides driving force through the hydraulic system to control the vertical lifting speed of the ink dispensing tank to be stable and the positioning accuracy is high. The hydraulic rod drives the ink tank to rise to the surface of the printing plate cylinder mechanism to immerse it in ink. The ink tank descends to a low position to facilitate cleaning or ink replacement, and to prevent ink from dripping onto the equipment.
[0019] Preferably, a drying mechanism is provided on the main frame on the other side of the flattening mechanism. The drying mechanism includes a hot air blower and an infrared lamp. The infrared lamp is installed on the main frame above the flattening mechanism and is detachably connected to the main frame. The hot air blower is installed on the main frame on one side of the infrared lamp and is detachably connected to the main frame.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the electromagnetic waves emitted by the infrared lamp tube can be directly absorbed by the organic matter in the ink and converted into heat energy to achieve deep drying from the inside out. The infrared lamp tube is detachably connected to the main frame, and the number of installations can be adjusted according to the printing area. The hot air generated by the hot air blows onto the surface of the printed matter, and the solvents volatilized from the ink surface are carried away by forced convection, avoiding the accumulation of solvents inside the equipment and the formation of safety hazards.
[0021] Preferably, an unwinding roller and a first roller seat are provided on the main frame on one side of the printing plate cylinder mechanism. The unwinding roller is mounted on the main frame via the first roller seat and is rotatably connected to the main frame. A take-up roller, a second roller seat, and a motor are provided on the main frame on one side of the flattening mechanism. The take-up roller is mounted on the main frame via the second roller seat and is rotatably connected to the main frame. The motor is mounted on the main frame at one end of the take-up roller. The motor base is detachably connected to the main frame. The working end of the motor is connected to the take-up roller, and the motor provides rotation for the take-up roller.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the unwinding roller rotates freely through the first roller seat, and with the active traction of the take-up roller motor, a stable material transport path is formed. The take-up roller motor can adjust the take-up tension in real time according to the printing speed to avoid the material from becoming loose or wrinkled due to insufficient tension, or from tearing due to excessive tension.
[0023] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0024] 1. After the diameter of the flattening roller is increased, the cross-sectional area of the flattening roller is greatly increased, and its resistance to bending and deformation is significantly improved. This solves the problem of frequent bearing damage, improves the running stability of the flattening roller, and enhances the reliability of the 6305 bearing. The combination of these two factors can reduce the frequency of equipment downtime caused by roller or bearing failure and improve production continuity.
[0025] 2. The flattening roller seat is installed on the main frame. The quick opening and closing mechanism can realize the quick separation and closing of the top cover and the flattening roller seat through one-click fastening and unlocking. The bearing can be checked or replaced. The flattening roller seat and the main frame are detachably connected. During installation, the positional accuracy of the flattening roller seat on the frame can be ensured, avoiding bearing coaxiality errors caused by manual alignment deviation.

The quick-release mechanism 23 includes an upper cover 231, a flattening roller seat 232, and a quick-opening and closing mechanism 233. The flattening roller seat 232 is bolted to the main frame 1. One end of each of the two quick-opening and closing mechanisms 233 is connected to both sides of the upper cover 231, and the other end of the quick-opening and closing mechanism 233 is connected to the main frame 1, causing the upper cover 231 to move longitudinally. The quick-opening and closing mechanism 233 includes a guide assembly 2331, a first hydraulic rod 2332, and a locking device 2333. The guide assembly 2331 is installed on the main frame 1. On the machine frame 1, the base of the first hydraulic rod 2332 is bolted to the main frame 1 on one side of the guide assembly 2331. The working end of the first hydraulic rod 2332 is connected to the moving part of the guide assembly 2331, and the moving part at the other end of the guide assembly 2331 is connected to the upper cover 231. When the first hydraulic rod 2332 is working, it drives the guide assembly 2331 and the upper cover 231 to move, so that the quick-release mechanism 23 meets the requirements for quick replacement of the bearing 22. The diameter of the flattening roller body 21 is increased from 20 mm to 50 mm, and the bearing 22 model is changed from 6205 to 6305. The inner diameter of the bearing 22 is matched with the diameter of the thickened flattening roller body 21. The cross-sectional area of the flattening roller body 21 is greatly increased, which improves the running stability of the flattening roller.

The base of second hydraulic rod 42 is bolted to slider 44. The working end of second hydraulic rod 42 is connected to ink trough 41. The sliding between slider 44 and electric linear guide rail 43 causes ink trough 41 to move laterally. The movement of second hydraulic rod 42 causes ink trough 41 to move longitudinally. The slider 44, electric linear guide rail 43 and second hydraulic rod 42 work together to make ink trough 41 accurately positioned and evenly ink-coated on cylinder 31.
[0032] A drying mechanism 5 is installed on the main frame on the other side of the flattening mechanism 2. The drying mechanism 5 includes a hot air blower 51 and an infrared lamp 52.

With the active traction of the motor 72 of the take-up roller 7, a stable material transmission path is formed. The motor 72 of the take-up roller 7 can adjust the winding tension in real time according to the printing speed.
[0033] The working principle of a gravure printing machine with a detachable flattening roller in this application is as follows:
[0034] The unwinding roller 6 is fixed to the main frame 1 via the first roller seat 61 and passively releases the printing material. The winding roller 7 is driven by the motor 72 and is mounted on the main frame 1 via the second roller seat 71.
