Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of inkjet printer technology, specifically to a positioning device for the printhead of an inkjet printer inspection machine. Background Technology
[0002] In modern industrial production, inkjet printing quality inspection machines are widely used in product packaging, food, pharmaceuticals and other fields to print information such as production date, batch number and expiration date on products to meet the needs of quality traceability and anti-counterfeiting. However, the positioning device of the printhead of the existing inkjet printing quality inspection machine has many problems and is difficult to meet the needs of efficient and accurate production.
[0003] On the one hand, the positioning accuracy and stability of the printhead are insufficient. Traditional positioning devices are mostly fixed structures. Once installed, the position and angle of the printhead are difficult to adjust, making it impossible to adapt to changes in different product specifications and production needs. In actual production, equipment vibration, environmental interference, and wear of mechanical parts due to long-term use can all cause the printhead to shift, thereby affecting the accuracy and quality of the coding. It may even lead to incorrect coding position, unclear characters, or detection failure, seriously affecting the appearance quality and pass rate of the product and increasing the production cost of the enterprise.
[0004] On the other hand, the installation and disassembly of the nozzles is cumbersome. Existing nozzle installation methods often require the use of multiple tools and involve complicated operating procedures. This not only increases the time cost of equipment maintenance and debugging, but also reduces production efficiency to some extent. This inconvenience is particularly prominent when frequent nozzle replacement or equipment maintenance is required, leading to extended equipment downtime and affecting the company's production capacity and economic benefits.
[0005] In addition, existing positioning devices lack versatility and flexibility, making it difficult to adapt to various nozzle specifications and diverse production scenarios. This often requires companies to redesign or replace the entire positioning device when facing different product or process requirements, increasing equipment investment costs and management complexity.
[0006] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the existing inkjet printer nozzle positioning device, there is an urgent need for an improved device that can achieve accurate, flexible and stable positioning and is easy to install and disassemble, so as to improve the performance and reliability of inkjet printers and meet the high-efficiency and high-quality requirements of modern industrial production. Utility Model Content

[0008] To overcome the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a positioning device for the printhead of a coding inspection machine. This addresses the significant deficiencies of existing printhead positioning devices, such as poor positioning accuracy and stability. These devices are prone to misalignment due to equipment vibration and component wear, affecting coding quality and inspection accuracy, leading to a lower product pass rate. Furthermore, printhead installation and disassembly are complex, and maintenance and debugging are time-consuming and labor-intensive, increasing equipment maintenance costs and downtime. Moreover, existing devices lack versatility and flexibility, making them difficult to adapt to different printhead specifications and varying production scenarios. Enterprises must redesign or replace positioning devices for different needs, further increasing equipment investment and management difficulty. Therefore, a new type of printhead positioning device for coding inspection machines is urgently needed to improve positioning accuracy, stability, and versatility, simplify installation and disassembly processes, and improve production efficiency and product quality.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a positioning device for the nozzle of a coding inspection machine, including a fixing clamp 1, a positioning shaft 4 fixedly installed on the top of the fixing clamp 1, a support rod 5 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the positioning shaft 4, a guide groove 7 opened on the outer surface of the support rod 5, a support seat 8 sleeved on the outer surface of the support rod 5, a positioning seat 10 rotatably provided on the outer wall of the support seat 8, and an mounting seat 11 fixedly installed on the top of the positioning seat 10.
[0026] In this embodiment, the fixing clamp 1 serves as the basic component of the entire positioning device. The positioning shaft 4 is fixedly mounted on its top, providing stable support and a mounting foundation for subsequent components. The threaded fastening rod 2 at its bottom, along with the connected pressure plate 3, securely fixes the device to the corresponding position on the inkjet printer, preventing displacement due to equipment vibration and ensuring the stability of the printhead positioning. The positioning shaft 4 is fixedly mounted to the fixing clamp 1, and its outer wall is rotatably connected to the support rod 5. This design gives the support rod 5 a certain degree of mobility, allowing the printhead to be adjusted in angle according to different needs, improving the flexibility and applicability of the device. The guide groove 7 on the outer surface of the support rod 5 provides support... The movement of the support seat 8 provides a guiding path, ensuring that the support seat 8 can move smoothly and accurately along the support rod 5. Simultaneously, the structure of the support rod 5 sleeved onto the support seat 8 further enhances its supporting effect. The pressure rod 6, threaded below the outer surface of the support rod 5, penetrates the support rod 5 and abuts against the outer wall of the positioning shaft 4, effectively preventing unnecessary rotation or displacement of the support rod 5 on the positioning shaft 4, ensuring the stability of the adjusted nozzle position. The guide groove 7, formed on the outer surface of the support rod 5, provides guidance for the movement of the support seat 8, enabling it to move smoothly and accurately along a predetermined path, preventing offset or shaking during movement, thus ensuring the spray nozzle's position. To ensure accurate nozzle positioning, the support base 8 is fitted onto the outer surface of the support rod 5 and can move along the support rod 5. Furthermore, a positioning seat 10 is rotatably mounted on its outer wall. This allows for both horizontal adjustment of the nozzle position and flexible angle adjustment, greatly improving the versatility and flexibility of the device. A fixing rod 9, threaded through one side of the outer surface of the support base 8, inserts into the support base 8 and presses against the outer wall of the support rod 5, fixing the support base 8 in a specific position on the support rod 5 to prevent displacement during operation and ensure nozzle position stability. The positioning seat 10 is rotatably mounted on the outer wall of the support base 8, further increasing the flexibility of nozzle angle adjustment and meeting the needs of different printing angles. The positioning bolt 12, inserted into one side of its outer surface, passes through the mounting base 11 and is threadedly connected to the limiting ring 13. By adjusting the positioning bolt 12 and the limiting ring 13, the mounting base 11 can be fixed at a specific angle in the positioning base 10 to ensure the angular stability of the printhead during operation. The mounting base 11 is fixedly installed on the top of the positioning base 10 and is used to install the inkjet printer printhead. The protective shell 14 inserted into its inner wall can protect the inkjet printer body 15 and prevent external factors from damaging the inkjet printer body 15. The design of the inner side wall of the protective shell 14 for detaching the inkjet printer body 15 makes the installation and removal of the printhead simple and quick, improves work efficiency, and facilitates equipment maintenance and debugging.
[0027] In the above embodiments, as a preferred option, a fastening rod 2 is threaded through the bottom of the fixing clamp 1. One end of the fastening rod 2, which is inserted into the fixing clamp 1, is rotatably connected to a pressure plate 3. By rotating the fastening rod 2, the position of the pressure plate 3 can be adjusted, thereby firmly fixing the device on the inkjet printer and enhancing the stability of the device.
[0028] In the above embodiment, as a preferred solution, a pressure rod 6 is threaded through the lower part of the outer surface of the support rod 5. One end of the pressure rod 6 passes through the support rod 5 and abuts against the outer wall of the positioning shaft 4. By threading the pressure rod 6 through the lower part of the outer surface of the support rod 5 and abutting the outer wall of the positioning shaft 4 with one end of the support rod 5 abutting against the outer wall of the positioning shaft 4, the support rod 5 is prevented from rotating or displacing on the positioning shaft 4, which further improves the stability of the device.
[0029] In the above embodiment, as a preferred solution, a fixing rod 9 is threaded through one side of the outer surface of the support base 8. One end of the fixing rod 9 passes through the support base 8 and abuts against the outer wall of the support rod 5. The fixing rod 9 is threaded through one side of the outer surface of the support base 8 and the end of the fixing rod 9 passes through the support base 8 and abuts against the outer wall of the support rod 5, which is used to fix the support base 8 at a specific position of the support rod 5 and ensure the positional stability of the nozzle during operation.
[0030] In the above embodiment, as a preferred solution, a positioning bolt 12 is inserted into one side of the outer surface of the positioning seat 10. One end of the positioning bolt 12 protrudes from the mounting seat 11 and is threaded to a limit ring 13. By inserting the positioning bolt 12 into one side of the outer surface of the positioning seat 10 and threading the limit ring 13 through one end of the mounting seat 11, the mounting seat 11 can be fixed at a specific angle of the positioning seat 10 by adjusting the positioning bolt 12 and the limit ring 13, so as to ensure the angular stability of the nozzle during operation.
[0031] In the above embodiments, as a preferred option, a protective shell 14 is inserted into the inner wall of the mounting base 11. The inkjet printer body 15 is detachably installed on the inner side wall of the protective shell 14. The protective shell 14 is inserted into the inner wall of the mounting base 11, and the inkjet printer body 15 is detachably installed on its inner side wall. The protective shell 14 can protect the inkjet printer body 15 and prevent external factors from damaging the inkjet printer body 15. At the same time, the detachable design makes the installation and removal of the printhead simple and quick, and facilitates the maintenance and debugging of the equipment.
[0032] All electrical components mentioned in this article are connected to an external main controller and 220V AC mains power, and the main controller can be a conventional known device such as a computer that can control it.
[0033] In this invention, the working steps of the device are as follows:
[0034] To install the fixing device, first, use the fixing clamp 1 to fix the entire positioning device in the appropriate position on the inkjet printer. According to the installation requirements of the equipment, tighten the fixing rod 2 to drive the pressure plate 3 to press the part where the fixing clamp 1 is installed, ensuring the overall stability of the device.

According to the requirements of the inkjet printing work, adjust the angle of the support rod 5 relative to the positioning shaft 4 so that the support rod 5 is in a suitable position. Then tighten the pressure rod 6 to fix the support rod 5 and ensure its stability during operation.
[0036] Move the support base 8 to a suitable position. The support base 8 is sleeved on the outer surface of the support rod 5, and the outer surface of the support rod 5 is provided with a guide groove 7. Slide the support base 8 along the guide groove 7 and move the support base 8 to a suitable position that meets the requirements of the nozzle position. Then tighten the fixing rod 9 so that the fixing rod 9 abuts against the outer wall of the support rod 5, thereby fixing the position of the support base 8.
[0037] Adjust the angle of the positioning seat 10. The positioning seat 10 is rotatably mounted on the outer wall of the support seat 8. Loosen the positioning bolt 12, rotate the positioning seat 10, and adjust its angle relative to the support seat 8 to meet the coding requirements of the printhead at different angles. After adjusting to the appropriate angle, tighten the positioning bolt 12, and further fix the angle of the positioning seat 10 with the limit ring 13 to prevent it from deflecting during operation.
[0038] To install the inkjet printer head, install the inkjet printer body 15 on the inner wall of the protective housing 14, and then insert the protective housing 14 into the inner wall of the mounting base 11 to complete the installation of the inkjet printer head. When it is necessary to replace the printhead or perform maintenance, the protective housing 14 and the inkjet printer body 15 can be easily disassembled to improve work efficiency.
[0039] To begin coding, after completing all the above installation and adjustment steps, the coding inspection machine starts up. Under the precise positioning and stable support of the positioning device, the printhead performs coding work according to the set position and angle, ensuring the accuracy and quality of the coding.
