Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, an aluminum tube printing device includes a base 100, a transverse moving assembly 200 mounted on the base 100, a top plate 300 mounted on the transverse moving assembly 200, a longitudinal moving assembly 400 mounted on the top plate 300, an angle adjusting assembly 500 mounted on the longitudinal moving assembly 400, and a printing assembly 600 mounted on the angle adjusting assembly 500.

[0026] By setting up the transverse shift component 200, the longitudinal shift component 400, the angle adjustment component 500, and the printing component 600, automatic shoulder printing can be performed on aluminum tubes of different sizes and different shoulder angles. The shoulder printing efficiency is high, saving labor costs and ensuring the stability of the shoulder printing quality.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the lateral movement assembly 200 includes a support column 210 and a drive component 220. The support column 210 is slidably mounted on the base 100, and the drive component 220 is mounted on the base 100, with its drive end connected to the bottom end of the support column 210. Specifically, the bottom end of the support column 210 is slidably mounted on the base 100 via a linear guide rail to ensure sliding stability; the drive component 220 is a cylinder.

[0028] The drive component 220 drives the support column 210 to move laterally along the base 100, so that the printing roller 650 in the printing assembly 600 can be accurately aligned with the shoulder position, avoiding deviation and ensuring printing in the designated area, thereby meeting the needs of efficient and accurate printing and greatly improving the consistency of the product.

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the longitudinal movement assembly 400 includes a longitudinal movement plate 410, a mounting block 420, and a screw 430. The longitudinal movement plate 410 is slidably mounted on the top plate 300, the mounting block 420 is mounted on the right side of the longitudinal movement plate 410, and the screw 430 is rotatably mounted on the mounting block 420. One end of the screw 430 is threadedly connected to a rod hole opened at the right end of the top plate 300.

[0030] By rotating the screw 430, the screw 430 undergoes axial displacement within the screw hole, which in turn drives the longitudinal moving plate 410 to move slightly along the longitudinal direction of the top plate 300 via the mounting block 420. This adjusts the pressure on the printing shoulder, preventing excessive pressure from causing material deformation or insufficient pressure from affecting the printing effect, thereby further ensuring printing quality.

[0031] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the angle adjustment assembly 500 includes an adjustment plate 510, a stud, and a bolt. The adjustment plate 510 is disposed on the longitudinal sliding plate 410. The stud is installed at the right end of the adjustment plate 510, and the bolt is installed at its left end. The bottom end of the stud extends into the through hole 411 opened in the longitudinal sliding plate 410 and is rotatably engaged with the through hole 411. The bottom end of the bolt extends into the arc-shaped hole 412 opened in the longitudinal sliding plate 410 and is slidably engaged with the arc-shaped hole 412.

[0032] By tightening or loosening the bolts, the adjusting plate 510 is pushed to rotate around the stud, and the bolt slides along the arc-shaped hole 412, thereby adjusting the angle of the printing assembly 600 to accommodate aluminum tubes with different shoulder angles.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the printing assembly 600 includes an ink fountain 610, a roller 620, an ink roller 630, an ink volume adjustment group 640, a printing wheel 650, a wheel axle 660, a power component 670, and a gear set 680. The ink fountain 610 is located in the middle of the angle adjustment assembly 500. The two ends of the roller 620 are rotatably mounted on the angle adjustment assembly 500 via support plates. The ink roller 630 is mounted on the roller 620, and the edge of the ink roller 630 extends into the ink fountain 610. The ink volume adjustment group 640 is mounted on one of the support plates. The printing wheel 650 is rotatably connected to the ink volume adjustment group 640 via the wheel axle 660. The ink roller 630 abuts against the printing wheel 650. The roller 620 and the wheel axle 660 are connected by a transmission via the gear set 680. The output end of the power component 670 is connected to the roller 620 by a transmission.

[0034] Specifically, the printing roller 650 can be replaced according to different sizes of aluminum tubes to meet various printing requirements; the ink fountain 610 is set on the adjusting plate 510; the support plate is installed on the adjusting plate 510; both ends of the roller shaft 620 are rotatably connected to the support plate through bearing seats; one end of the wheel shaft 660 is rotatably connected to the ink volume adjusting group 640 through a bearing seat; the gear group 680 includes two gears, which are respectively installed on the roller shaft 620 and the wheel shaft 660, and the two gears mesh with each other.

[0035] The power component 670 drives the roller shaft 620 to rotate, and the rotation of the roller shaft 620 drives the ink roller 630 to rotate. At the same time, the gear set 680 synchronously drives the printing wheel 650 to rotate. The ink roller 630 absorbs the ink in the ink fountain 610 and evenly attaches the ink to the printing wheel 650. The printing wheel 650 then transfers the ink to the shoulder of the aluminum tube, thereby realizing the printing on the shoulder of the aluminum tube.

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the ink volume adjustment assembly 640 includes a slider 641, a knob 642, and an elastic element 643. The slider 641 is slidably mounted in a sliding hole in the support plate. The knob 642 is threaded onto the support plate, with one end extending into the sliding hole and abutting against one side of the slider 641. The elastic element 643 is disposed in the sliding hole, with one end abutting against the side wall of the sliding hole and the other end abutting against the other side of the slider 641. Specifically, one end of the axle 660 is rotatably connected to the slider 641 via a bearing seat; the elastic element 643 is a spring.

[0037] The ink volume adjustment group 640 adjusts the force between the ink roller 630 and the printing roller 650, thereby adjusting the ink volume. Rotating the knob 642 causes a slight axial movement, which in turn pushes the slider 641 to slide within the sliding hole. The tighter the printing roller 650 is pressed down, the thinner the ink layer.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, the power component 670 includes a mounting plate 671, a motor 672, and a sprocket and chain mechanism. The mounting plate 671 is rotatably mounted on the transverse assembly 200, and the motor 672 is mounted on the mounting plate 671. The output end of the motor 672 is connected to the end of the roller shaft 620 away from the gear set 680 via the sprocket and chain mechanism. Specifically, the mounting plate 671 is rotatably mounted on the support column 210; the sprocket and chain mechanism includes a main sprocket, a driven sprocket, and a chain. The main sprocket is mounted on the output end of the motor 672, and the driven sprocket is mounted on the end of the roller shaft 620 away from the gear set 680. The chain drive is sleeved on the main sprocket and the driven sprocket. This is prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0039] When the adjusting plate 510 swings around the stud, the mounting plate 671 also rotates adaptively around the support column 210 to ensure the normal transmission of the sprocket and chain mechanism.

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the printing assembly 600 also includes a doctor blade assembly 690, which includes a side doctor blade 691 and a circumferential doctor blade 692. The side doctor blade 691 is mounted on the angle adjustment assembly 500 and positioned above the ink fountain 610, scraping the ink from both sides of the ink roller 630 into the ink fountain 610 to avoid ink waste. The circumferential doctor blade 692 is mounted on the side doctor blade 691 to evenly scrape the ink on the circumferential surface of the ink roller 630. Specifically, both ends of the side doctor blade 691 are mounted on the adjustment plate 510 via vertical plates, and a U-shaped scraping groove is formed at the end of the side doctor blade 691 near the ink roller 630.

[0041] By using the doctor blade assembly 690, the ink on the ink roller 630 is evenly scraped, thereby ensuring that the ink adhering to the printing roller 650 is uniform, thus further guaranteeing the stability of the print quality.

[0042] To allow adjustment of the distance between the doctor blade assembly 690 and the ink roller 630, thereby adjusting the ink thickness, straight slots are provided at both ends of the side doctor blade 691. Figure 6 As shown, the screw passes through the straight hole and connects to the upright plate. Tightening or loosening the screw adjusts the distance between the side scraper 691 and the ink roller 630 (according to product requirements), thereby adjusting the ink thickness, avoiding material waste, and reducing operating costs.

[0043] During operation, when printing is required on the shoulder of the aluminum tube, the drive unit 220 drives the support column 210 to move laterally along the base 100, aligning the printing roller 650 with the shoulder of the aluminum tube; the power unit 670 is activated, and the printing roller 650 evenly prints ink onto the shoulder of the aluminum tube. It should be noted that this application can be used in conjunction with a base coloring machine for continuous operation, quickly completing the shoulder printing process, thereby significantly improving product production efficiency.

[0044] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
