[0002] The aluminum panel water transfer printing film application device is a key equipment cluster for realizing the water transfer printing process. Its core function is to complete the surface pretreatment of aluminum panels, water transfer film production and transfer operation through automated or semi-automated processes, and finally achieve the precise transfer of patterns.

[0003] Traditional water transfer printing equipment for aluminum panels relies on operators manually laying the film on the water surface and then pressing the aluminum panel into the water for printing. This results in a labor-intensive and inefficient process. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a water transfer printing film application device for aluminum single panels, which solves the problem that traditional water transfer printing film application devices for aluminum single panels mainly rely on operators to manually lay the film on the water surface and then hold the aluminum single panel to press it into the water for transfer, resulting in high labor intensity and low efficiency throughout the process.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: This utility model relates to a water transfer printing film application device for aluminum single-panel, comprising a base, a water tank fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the base, four sets of first fixing plates fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the base, wherein two sets of first fixing plates are rotatably connected to an unwinding roller, a first motor is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the first fixing plate, the output end of the first motor is connected to one end of the unwinding roller, a take-up roller is rotatably connected between the other two sets of first fixing plates, a second motor is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the first fixing plate, the output end of the second motor is connected to one end of the take-up roller, a film is sleeved on the outer surface of the unwinding roller, and the other end of the film is sleeved on the outer surface of the take-up roller, a movable adsorption mechanism is provided on the upper surface of the water tank, the adsorption end of the movable adsorption mechanism is located above the water tank, and two sets of heating mechanisms are provided on the upper surface of the base, the heating end of the heating mechanism is located inside the water tank.

[0006] Furthermore, the mobile adsorption mechanism includes a mounting plate, which is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the water tank. Two sets of mounting shells are fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the mounting plate, and a lead screw is rotatably connected inside one set of the mounting shells.

[0007] Furthermore, a third motor is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the mounting housing, and the output end of the third motor is connected to one end of the lead screw. A guide slide is fixedly installed inside another set of mounting housings. Slider blocks are provided inside both sets of mounting housings. The interior of one set of sliders is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the lead screw, and the interior of the other set of sliders is slidably connected to the outer surface of the guide slide.

[0008] Furthermore, connecting rods are fixedly installed on the outer surfaces of the two sets of sliders, and a connecting plate is fixedly installed at one end of each connecting rod.

[0009] Furthermore, a vacuum generator is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the connecting plate, and a vacuum suction cup is fixedly installed at the output end of the vacuum generator.

[0010] Furthermore, the heating mechanism includes a second fixing plate, and two sets of second fixing plates are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base. A hot air blower is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the two sets of second fixing plates. An output pipe is fixedly installed at the output end of the hot air blower, and one end of the output pipe is connected to the inside of the water tank.

[0011] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: (1) This utility model starts the moving adsorption mechanism, which uses a vacuum suction cup to adsorb the aluminum single panel to be processed. The third motor drives the lead screw to rotate, which drives the slider to move horizontally along the guide rail. Through the connecting rod and connecting plate, the vacuum suction cup adsorbing the aluminum single panel is driven to move smoothly from the initial position to the top of the water tank. The moving adsorption mechanism controls the aluminum single panel to move downward and press it into the water. Under the action of water pressure, the film laid flat on the water surface will evenly wrap and adhere to the entire surface of the aluminum single panel, thereby achieving the effect of pattern transfer. This avoids the situation in the prior art where, when transferring aluminum single panels, traditional water transfer printing mainly relies on the operator to manually lay the film on the water surface and then hold the aluminum single panel to press it into the water for transfer, which leads to high labor intensity and low efficiency in the whole process.

[0012] (2) During or after this process, the present invention starts two sets of hot air blowers. The hot air is blown into the water tank or water surface space through the output pipe to heat the water. The heat energy activates the adhesive layer of the water transfer film and promotes the evaporation of water, thereby achieving the effect of making the pattern adhere more firmly to the surface of the aluminum single panel.

[0013] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] Please see Figures 1-4As shown, this utility model is a water transfer printing film application device for aluminum single-panel, including a base 1, a water tank 2 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base 1, four sets of first fixing plates 3 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base 1, wherein two sets of first fixing plates 3 are rotatably connected to unwinding rollers 4, a first motor 401 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the first fixing plates 3, the output end of the first motor 401 is connected to one end of the unwinding roller 4, a take-up roller 5 is rotatably connected between the other two sets of first fixing plates 3, a second motor 501 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the first fixing plates 3, the output end of the second motor 501 is connected to one end of the take-up roller 5, a film 6 is sleeved on the outer surface of the unwinding roller 4, the other end of the film 6 is sleeved on the outer surface of the take-up roller 5, a movable adsorption mechanism 7 is provided on the upper surface of the water tank 2, the adsorption end of the movable adsorption mechanism 7 is located above the water tank 2, and two sets of heating mechanisms 8 are provided on the upper surface of the base 1, the heating end of the heating mechanism 8 is located inside the water tank 2; Base 1: The base is the supporting foundation and structural platform of the entire device. It is usually made of heavy steel welded or cast iron to ensure the stability and rigidity of the overall structure during operation and effectively suppress vibration. Its upper surface is precision machined to provide a precise reference plane for the installation of components such as water tank and fixed plate. Water tank 2: The water tank is the core container for the water transfer printing process. Its capacity is designed to hold enough water to ensure that the aluminum panel can be completely immersed. It is usually made of corrosion-resistant materials such as stainless steel. The interior is smooth and flat, making it easy to clean and maintain. It is not easy to rust or pollute the water body with long-term use. First fixing plate 3: The first fixing plate is a key structural component supporting the film conveying system. There are four sets in total. They are firmly installed on the base by welding or high-strength bolts. They have extremely high dimensional accuracy and positional accuracy, ensuring that the unwinding roller and the take-up roller axis are parallel, and ensuring that the film has uniform tension and does not deviate during the conveying process. Unwind Roller 4: The unwind roller is used to support and release the water transfer film roll with the transfer pattern. Its roller surface is specially treated (such as chrome plating or rubber coating) to provide sufficient friction to prevent the film from slipping and to avoid scratching the back of the film. Both ends of the roller are connected to the first fixed plate through precision bearings to ensure flexible and smooth rotation. First motor 401: The first motor is the drive source for the unwinding roller, usually an adjustable speed servo motor or stepper motor. Through a precise control system, it can provide constant or variable unwinding torque according to process requirements, and work with the take-up roller to achieve smooth and slack-free film transport, preventing the film from breaking or wrinkling due to improper tension. Take-up Roller 5: The take-up roller is used to collect the film substrate after the transfer is completed. Its structure is similar to the unwind roller, but the drive method is active winding. Surface characteristics ensure that it can effectively grip the film and wind it tightly, avoiding uneven winding or loosening; Second motor 501: The second motor is the power source for the take-up roller. It also has precise speed and torque control capabilities. It works in conjunction with the unwinding motor and usually runs at a speed slightly higher than the unwinding speed to form a stable take-up tension and ensure that the used film is recycled in a timely and neat manner. Film 6: The film is the carrier of the water transfer printing pattern, usually consisting of a water-soluble PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) base layer and a pattern layer and an adhesive layer printed on it. When it is laid flat on the water surface, the PVA layer dissolves, and the pattern remains intact under the surface tension of the water so that it can be adhered to the aluminum panel pressed into the water; Mobile Adsorption Mechanism 7: The mobile adsorption mechanism is an automated component that enables automatic picking, immersion, and lifting of aluminum panels. It integrates horizontal movement, vertical lifting, and vacuum adsorption functions, replacing traditional manual operation and serving as a core unit for achieving efficient and stable production. Heating Mechanism 8: The heating mechanism is an auxiliary system used to activate the water transfer film adhesive and promote moisture evaporation. By providing controlled hot air to the water in the tank or the water surface space, the transfer process is accelerated and the adhesion of the pattern is improved.

[0018] The mobile adsorption mechanism 7 includes a mounting plate 701. The mounting plate 701 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the water tank 2. Two sets of mounting shells 702 are fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the mounting plate 701. A lead screw 703 is rotatably connected inside one set of mounting shells 702. Mounting plate 701: The mounting plate is the basic support for the mobile adsorption mechanism. It is firmly installed on the upper surface or side of the water tank. It provides a stable mounting platform for subsequent components such as the mounting shell and motor. Its installation position ensures that the adsorption end can accurately cover the working area above the water tank. Mounting Housing 702: The mounting housing is a protective and support housing for the transmission system in the mobile adsorption mechanism. It is usually made of aluminum alloy or steel plate and houses precision components such as lead screws and guide slides, protecting them from external contamination and collisions, while ensuring the relative positional accuracy of the transmission components. Lead screw 703: The lead screw is a precision transmission component, typically a ball screw, which converts the rotary motion of the third motor into the high-precision, high-smoothness linear motion of the slider. Its high transmission efficiency and low backlash characteristics ensure the positioning accuracy and smooth operation of the aluminum panel during horizontal movement.

[0019] A third motor 704 is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the mounting housing 702. The output end of the third motor 704 is connected to one end of the lead screw 703. A guide slide rod 705 is fixedly mounted inside another set of mounting housings 702. Slider 706 is provided inside both sets of mounting housings 702. The interior of one set of sliders 706 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the lead screw 703, and the interior of the other set of sliders 706 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the guide slide rod 705. Third motor 704: The third motor is the drive motor of the lead screw, usually a servo motor. It receives instructions from the control system and precisely controls the rotation angle and speed of the lead screw, thereby achieving precise control of the horizontal movement position and speed of the slider (and the adsorbed aluminum panel). Guide slide 705: The guide slide is installed parallel to the lead screw and plays a guiding and supporting role. It is usually a straight optical shaft with high hardness and high smoothness. It works with the linear bearing in the slider to ensure that the slider can only move horizontally along the predetermined axis during the movement, withstand possible off-center load torque, and prevent the mechanism from jamming or shaking. 706 slider: The slider is the moving part of the moving mechanism. It usually contains a nut that mates with the lead screw and a linear bearing that mates with the guide slide. It integrates the power transmission of the lead screw and the constraint force of the guide slide to achieve smooth, low-friction linear motion and transmit the motion to the connecting rod.

[0020] Connecting rods 707 are fixedly installed on the outer surfaces of the two sets of sliders 706, and connecting plates 708 are fixedly installed on one end of the connecting rods 707; Connecting rod 707: The connecting rod is a rigid component that connects the slider and the connecting plate. It reliably transmits the horizontal linear motion of the slider to the connecting plate and the vacuum suction cup assembly. Its length and strength are designed to span the width of the water tank and ensure sufficient rigidity under load to avoid deformation. Connecting plate 708: The connecting plate is the mounting base for the vacuum generator and vacuum suction cups. It is fixed to the slider by the connecting rod. It needs to have good flatness to ensure that the mounting surfaces of multiple vacuum suction cups are coplanar, thereby achieving uniform and stable adsorption of aluminum panels.

[0021] A vacuum generator 709 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the connecting plate 708, and a vacuum suction cup 710 is fixedly installed on the output end of the vacuum generator 709. Vacuum Generator 709: A vacuum generator is a device that uses compressed air to create a vacuum. When compressed air is introduced, it generates negative pressure at its vacuum port through the Venturi effect, thereby providing suction force for the vacuum suction cup. It has a fast response speed and the vacuum level is easy to control. Vacuum suction cup 710: Vacuum suction cups are actuators that directly contact and adsorb aluminum panels. They are usually made of soft rubber or silicone materials to adapt to the slight unevenness of the aluminum panel surface, form an effective seal, and avoid scratching the workpiece surface during handling. Their number and layout are designed according to the size and weight of the aluminum panel. The heating mechanism 8 includes a second fixing plate 801. Two sets of second fixing plates 801 are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base 1. A hot air blower 802 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the two sets of second fixing plates 801. An output pipe 803 is fixedly installed at the output end of the hot air blower 802. One end of the output pipe 803 is connected to the inside of the water tank 2. Second fixing plate 801: The second fixing plate is a supporting component of the heating mechanism. It is firmly installed on the base to fix the hot air blower and ensure its stability during operation. Hot air blower 802: A hot air blower is a heat source and air source device for a heating mechanism, containing heating elements and a fan. It draws in air, heats it, and then sends it out through an output pipe, providing hot air with a stable flow rate and temperature. Output pipe 803: The output pipe is the hot air delivery pipe that connects the hot air blower and the water tank. It is usually made of high temperature resistant materials (such as metal hoses or heat-resistant plastic pipes). Its outlet extends into the water tank or near the water surface to ensure that the hot air can effectively act on the water and the film.

[0022] In use, the film 6 with the transfer pattern is placed on the unwinding roller 4, and its end is pulled to the take-up roller 5 for fixation. A certain amount of water is injected into the water tank 2, and then the moving adsorption mechanism 7 is activated. The aluminum panel to be processed is adsorbed by the vacuum suction cup 710. The third motor 704 is started to drive the lead screw 703 to rotate, which drives the slider 706 to move horizontally along the guide slide 705. Through the connecting rod 707 and the connecting plate 708, the vacuum suction cup 710 adsorbing the aluminum panel is driven to move smoothly from the initial position to directly above the water tank 2. The moving adsorption mechanism 7 controls the aluminum panel to move downward, pressing it into the water. Under the action of water pressure, the film 6 laid flat on the water surface will evenly wrap and adhere to the entire surface of the aluminum panel, thereby achieving the effect of pattern transfer. This avoids the situation in the existing technology where, when transferring aluminum panels, traditional water transfer mainly relies on the operator to manually lay the film on the water surface and then hold the aluminum panel to press it into the water for transfer, which leads to high labor intensity and low efficiency in the whole process.

[0023] During or after this process, two sets of hot air blowers 802 are activated. Hot air is blown into the water tank 2 or the water surface space through the output pipe 803 to heat the water. The heat energy activates the adhesive layer of the water transfer film and promotes the evaporation of water, thereby achieving the effect of making the pattern adhere more firmly to the surface of the aluminum single panel. After the transfer is completed, the moving adsorption mechanism 7 lifts the aluminum panel from the water and moves it back to the initial position, releases the vacuum adsorption, and removes the processed workpiece. At the same time, the winding roller 5 winds up the used film substrate, ready for the next cycle.

[0024] The preferred embodiments of this utility model disclosed above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification.

This utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
