Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of color mixing equipment technology, and more specifically, it relates to a paint color mixing device. Background Technology

[0002] A color mixing machine is a device that can efficiently and accurately mix colors. At the same time, a color mixing machine can ensure that the color mixed each time is exactly the same. Therefore, it is widely used in paint production. However, existing color mixing machines have the problem that the support structure of the color mixing tank can hinder the proper placement of the baffle.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN222586409U discloses a color mixing device for paint production. This device includes a color mixing machine body, a pigment container on the outer surface of the body, and a support mechanism on the outside of the body. The support mechanism includes a support plate movably positioned on the front of the body, supporting the pigment container. A fixed plate is positioned outside the body, supporting the support plate. An extension plate is slidably positioned outside the support plate, fixing it in place. By using the support plate, a horizontally positioned support plate can support the pigment container, while the extension plate fixes its horizontal position. A vertically positioned support plate can shield the shaking chamber, preventing external interference. This achieves two functions for the support plate without mutual interference or obstruction.

[0004] While the above solution optimizes the support structure of the color mixing machine to some extent, the support structure is still some distance from the ground. Paint buckets are usually quite heavy, and operators need to exert considerable effort to lift them onto the support structure. This is especially true for people with less strength, such as female operators or those who are physically weak. Lifting the heavy paint buckets to a certain height is quite difficult, which not only increases the labor intensity of the operators but may also lead to safety hazards such as paint buckets slipping due to the inconvenience of operation, thus affecting the normal operation of production. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a paint mixing device. Through the design of an auxiliary lifting structure, a support rod can be deployed when needed to assist operators in lifting the paint mixing bucket from the ground to the height of the support plate, greatly reducing the labor intensity of operators. This is especially beneficial for those with less strength and avoids safety hazards such as paint buckets slipping due to inconvenient operation.

[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a paint mixing device, comprising a mixing machine body and a supporting structure, wherein the mixing machine body is provided with an auxiliary lifting structure next to the supporting structure, the auxiliary lifting structure comprising:

[0007] The lifting drive device is located inside the main body of the color mixing machine;

[0008] A movable rod is set at the output end of the lifting drive device and extends through to the outside of the color mixing machine body. The color mixing machine body has a slot for the movable rod to slide.

[0009] A support rod is rotatably connected to the end of the moving rod away from the lifting drive device. The support rod has an unfolded support state and a folded storage state.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that: the lifting drive device includes two supports disposed inside the body of the color mixing machine, a lead screw is rotatably connected between the two supports, a motor is disposed inside the body of the color mixing machine, the output shaft of the motor is connected to one end of the lead screw, a lead screw nut is threaded on the lead screw, and one end of the moving rod is fixedly connected to the lead screw nut.

[0011] The present invention is further configured to include a foot pedal, on which a pressure sensor is provided, and the pressure sensor is electrically connected to the motor.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that the support surface of the support rod is provided with several anti-slip rubber patterns.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that: the surface of the main body of the color mixing machine is integrally formed with a groove for accommodating the moving rod and the support rod.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that: a U-shaped limiting strip is slidably connected in the groove, and the inner cavity of the U-shaped limiting strip is used to accommodate the folded support rod.

[0015] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] The auxiliary lifting structure provides operators with more options when using the machine.

[0023] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Reference Figures 1-2 A paint mixing device includes a mixing machine body 1 and a support structure 2. The mixing machine body 1 is provided with an auxiliary lifting structure next to the support structure 2. The auxiliary lifting structure includes:

[0025] The lifting drive device is located inside the main body 1 of the color mixing machine;

[0026] The movable rod 3 is located at the output end of the lifting drive device and extends through to the outside of the color mixing machine body 1. The color mixing machine body 1 has a slot for the movable rod 3 to slide.

[0027] The support rod 4 is rotatably connected to the end of the movable rod 3 away from the lifting drive device. The support rod 4 has an unfolded support state and a folded storage state, as shown in the attached figure. When the support rod 4 is unfolded, its end is located above the movable rod 3, so the movable rod 3 can naturally provide upward support to the support rod 4.

[0028] The lifting drive device includes two supports 5 fixedly installed inside the body 1 of the color mixing machine. A lead screw 6 is rotatably connected between the two supports 5. A motor is fixedly installed inside the body 1 of the color mixing machine. The output shaft of the motor is connected to one end of the lead screw 6. A lead screw nut is threaded on the lead screw 6. One end of the moving rod 3 is fixedly connected to the lead screw nut. When the motor starts, its output shaft drives the lead screw 6 to rotate. The moving rod 3 can then move up or down along the lead screw 6 through the lead screw nut. At the same time, because the moving rod 3 is limited by the slot, it can prevent the moving rod 3 from deflecting with the lead screw 6, thereby realizing the smooth up and down movement of the support rod 4 and the color mixing tank placed on the support rod 4.

[0029] It also includes a foot pedal 7, on which a pressure sensor (not shown in the figure) is fixedly installed. The pressure sensor is electrically connected to the motor. After the operator places the color mixing bucket, he only needs to step on the foot pedal 7. When the pressure sensor on the foot pedal 7 receives pressure, it converts it into an electrical signal and transmits it to the motor. The motor starts and drives the lead screw 6 to rotate. After releasing the foot, the foot pedal returns to its original position, making it easy to sense the next step. During this process, the operator does not need to manually operate the control switch, and his hands can always hold the color mixing bucket firmly, which improves the safety and convenience of operation.

[0030] Several anti-slip rubber patterns 8 are adhered to the support surface of the support rod 4. When the paint bucket is placed on the support rod 4, the anti-slip rubber patterns 8 contact the bottom of the paint bucket, increasing the friction between the paint bucket and the support rod 4. During the upward movement, the anti-slip rubber patterns 8 can effectively prevent the paint bucket from slipping on the support rod 4, further ensuring the stability of the paint bucket.

[0031] The surface of the main body 1 of the color mixing machine is integrally formed with a groove 9 to accommodate the moving rod 3 and the support rod 4. When the auxiliary lifting structure is not needed, the support rod 4 can be stored in the groove 9, making the overall structure more compact and improving the overall aesthetics of the color mixing equipment.

[0032] A U-shaped limiting strip 10 is slidably connected inside the groove 9. The inner cavity of the U-shaped limiting strip 10 is used to accommodate the folded support rod 4. When the support rod 4 is folded and stored in the groove 9, the support rod 4 has a friction self-locking function on the one hand, relying on the static friction between the contact surface between the support rod 4 and the moving rod 3. In order to increase the stability of the folded and locked state, on the other hand, the operator can control the U-shaped limiting strip 10 to slide upward during folding, so that the support rod 4 can be smoothly rotated back. Then the U-shaped limiting strip 10 falls naturally and its inner cavity will fit the support rod 4, fixing the support rod 4 in the groove 9. This further fixes the folded support rod 4 and prevents the support rod 4 from falling out of the groove 9 due to vibration or other reasons during the use of the color mixing machine.

[0033] Working Principle: When placing the color mixing bucket, this device utilizes an auxiliary lifting structure to raise it from the ground to the height of the support plate. Specifically, when the auxiliary lifting structure is needed, the operator rotates the support rod 4 around the moving rod 3 to its unfolded support state. At this point, the support rod 4 forms a stable support surface. The color mixing bucket is then placed on the support rod 4, and the operator must hold the bucket firmly to ensure its stability. Subsequently, the lifting drive device is activated, moving the moving rod 3, support rod 4, and color mixing bucket upwards as a whole. Once the bucket is slightly higher than the support plate, the operator applies slight force to smoothly transfer the bucket onto the support plate. The same method can be used to transfer the bucket to the shaking chamber after adding dye. When the auxiliary lifting structure is not needed, the operator rotates the support rod 4 upwards around the moving rod 3 to fold it into a stowage state, avoiding occupying space around the main body of the color mixing machine 1 and preventing inconvenience to other operations of the color mixing machine.

[0034] The auxiliary lifting structure provides operators with more options when using the machine. When needed, the support rod 4 can be unfolded to help operators lift the paint bucket from the ground to the height of the support plate, greatly reducing the labor intensity of operators. This is especially beneficial for those with less strength, and avoids safety hazards such as paint buckets slipping due to inconvenient operation. When not in use, the support rod 4 can be folded and stored to avoid occupying the space around the main body 1 of the paint mixing machine and to prevent inconvenience to other operations of the paint mixing machine.

[0035] The motor and pressure sensor of this invention are controlled and coordinated by being electrically connected to the controller. The controller's control circuit can be implemented by simple programming by those skilled in the art. The power supply is also common knowledge in the field. Since this invention is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, the control method and circuit connection will not be explained in detail.

[0036] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are within its protection scope. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within its protection scope.
