Description

A COMBINED PRINTING APPARATUS
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a combined printing apparatus for secure files (particularly marketable securities), which can achieve a combined printing using three printing technologies, i.e., screen printing, presswork magnetic orientation and letterpress printing, through one time of printing.
Background of the Invention
Most of the existing security printing equipments can only perform a printing using one printing technology. For example, the sheet-fed single-side rotary screen-plate printing equipment can only perform a printing using the screen printing technology, and the letterpress printing equipment can only perform a printing using the letterpress printing technology. When the presswork needs to be printed using multiple printing technologies, different printing equipments of simplex technology are used for printing successively. Thus, one production line is provided with a certain number of printing equipments of different technologies which can respectively achieve screen printing, letterpress printing, etc. Since all kinds of equipments are equipped with a sheet delivery device respectively, the production line is long and the workshop occupies a large area, so the production cost is increased.
The Chinese patent No. 200410084389.9 discloses a sticky rotary printing machine composed of a paper feeding section, a paper collecting device, a screen printing section and a satellite letterpress printing section, etc., wherein a screen printing unit is coordinated with a letterpress printing machine, but a comprehensive printing using three printing technologies, i.e., screen printing, presswork magnetic orientation and letterpress printing, cannot be achieved through one time of paper pass.
The Chinese patent No. 200880005435.8 discloses a "cylinder body for orienting magnetic flakes contained in an ink or varnish vehicle applied on a sheet-like or web-like substrate". The known cylinder body 10 having magnetic field generating devices has a determinate position relative to the shaft member in the circumferential direction, and they rotate synchronously. Thus, a sheet will always be in an absorbed state when it is delivered to the cylinder body 10, and particularly, it is absorbed on the cylinder body even in the sheet handover process. Thus, when a sheet transfer system of the known cylinder body 10 having magnetic field generating devices performs a sheet handover with a sheet transfer system of other cylinder or device, the adsorption force of the cylinder body 10 will influence the accuracy and stability of the sheet handover in a certain extent. Thus in the known structure, the sheet handover between cylinders is unstable and the accuracy is low during continuous production operation, and the quality of the presswork is influenced. Thus the cylinder body 10 of the known structure is more suitable for the printing equipment as illustrated in Fig. 13 which has no sheet handover Furthermore, in the known structure, although the suction hole in the center shaft of the magnetic orientation cylinder can switch the suction and non-suction functions by being selectively inserted with an element, such arrangement shall be made in appropriate time, thus its structure is relatively complex and the labor intensity in production is increased. In addition, the axial position of the magnetic field generating device in the known art is not adjustable on the annular support, and only the mounting position of the annular support can be adjusted in the axial direction of the center shaft, which largely restricts the flexibility of the position adjustment of the magnetic field generating device. H Since the screen presswork has a thick ink layer, it needs to be dried so as to ensure the quality of the presswork. In existing screen printing equipments, the presswork is usually dried through a combination of hot air drying and infrared drying/UV drying. But the combined drying uses a long drying path, which not only occupies a large space of the equipment, but also causes a problem that the presswork quality is influenced when the presswork cannot be dried in time. For this reason, an apparatus for baking ink on sheet surfaces with ultraviolet light has been developed. In the drying process, the printing cylinder having a cooling function is required to cool the sheet surface at the same time of drying, so as to improve the sheet security in the drying process. For example, in an "Ultraviolet and Infrared Two-Selecting Drying Apparatus of Printer" disclosed in the Chinese patent No. 200820009427.8, a cool-type transfer flat roll is described, which is provided at a lower portion of an ultraviolet light box and which is hollow inside. The cooling water is transferred to the cavity of the cool-type transfer flat roll through the water pipe and the rotary valve assembly. When the sheet is dried with the ultraviolet light box, in order to prevent the film sheet from a shrinkage distortion under high temperature of the ultraviolet light box, the rotary valve assembly is opened, and the cool-type transfer flat roll is filled with cool water inside, so as to absorb the heat from the sheet surface.
The printing process is a complex process, and the known structure of the cool-type transfer flat roll only cools the sheet surface. However, when the cool-type transfer flat roll cannot engage with other paper delivery cylinder, the sheet floats on the surface of the transfer flat roll, thus the sheet is unstable in the delivery process. For example, in the delivery process, the tail of the sheet may drift, and different parts of the sheet cannot be kept in the same plane, etc..
In conclusion, for the printing houses which have a large product volume and mainly use comprehensive technologies, the current production lines of existing printing apparatuses and equipments can only be provided with the equipments of simplex or two combined printing technologies. As a result, the expenses of investment and management for the equipment are high, the production cycle is long, and many human labors are required. In addition, the maintenance expense is increased, thus the production cost is high and the market competitiveness is influenced. Moreover, the screen printing requires a huge drying system, thus the existing printing apparatuses of comprehensive technologies further have a defect that the production lines and the storehouses occupy large areas.
is In view of the above defects of the known arts and according to the production and design experiences of many years in this and related fields, the inventor has developed a combined printing apparatus of the present invention, which achieves three printing technologies, i.e., screen printing, presswork magnetic orientation and letterpress printing, and solves the problems that during the sheet handover between various printing units, the printed image and text may be set-off, the sheet needs to be turned over, and the delivery path shall be as short as possible, etc.. That is, the present invention not only could meet the printing requirement and ensures the printing quality, but also greatly shortens the delivery path and reduces the equipment volume.

Further, as illustrated in Fig. 3, the inner wall of the annular support 22 is axially provided with grooves 228, which are corresponding to the through holes 2121 of the cylinder body 212 and communicated with each of the first adsorption holes 222. By providing the grooves 228, it can ensure that the first adsorption holes 222 and the through holes 2121 of the cylinder body 212 are always in a through state when the annular support 22 moves in the axial direction.
As illustrated in Figs. 3b and 4, in another feasible embodiment, the pressing plate 226 may be provided with a recess snap-fitted with the connecting key 2124. The connecting bolt 28 is connected to the connecting key 2124 through the pressing plate 226, so as to fix the pressing plate 226 to the side of the support ring 225. In addition, the Ii upper surfaces of the two horizontal ends of the T-shaped connecting key 2124 abut against the T-shaped keyways 2122, 2123 by tightening connecting bolts 28, and the annular support 22 is axially fixed by means of a friction force between the connecting key 2124 and the keyways. In the structure, the axial adjustment of the annular support 22 has been described before, and herein is omitted.
Further, referring to Figs. 3, 5 and 6, the magnetic field generating device 221 includes a magnetic block carrier 2211, a magnetic element 2212 and a base plate 213.
The magnetic element 2212 is accommodated in the magnetic block carrier 2211. The base plate 2213 closes the magnetic element 2212 in the magnetic block carrier 2211.
The magnetic block carrier 2211 and the base plate 2213 are fixed to each other through a screw. The magnetic block carrier 2211, the base plate 2213 and the cover plate 23 are all made of weakly magnetic materials or non-magnetic materials.
In a feasible solution, one end of the cover plate 23 is fixedly connected to the annular support 22, and the other end is adjustably fixed in a gripping section 25. The gripping section 25 is connected to the annular support 22 and moveable in the circumferential direction thereof, so as to tension the cover plate 23.
Further, as illustrated in Figs. 3 and 3a, the gripping section 25 further includes a pair of upper and lower pressing plates 251, 252. The other end of the cover plate 23 is fixed between the upper and lower pressing plates 251, 252 which are provided in an elongated slot formed at one end of the annular support 22, and the lower pressing plate of the gripping section 25 is fixedly connected to the annular support 22 through a fastening bolt 261. When the annular support 22 or other part needs to be adjusted, the tensioning force of the cover plate 23 is decreased by loosening the fastening bolt 261, or the cover plate 23 goes away from the gripping of the upper and lower pressing plates by screwing out the positioning bolt 262. When the cover plate 23 is to be tensioned, the lower pressing plate 252 is strained toward the end of the annular support 22 by adjusting the fastening bolt 261, so as to strain the cover plate 23.
Referring to Figs. 7 and 12 in coordination, the spindle of the magnetic orientation cylinder is axially provided with a hollow air passage 2111 that is usually arranged coaxially with the spindle 211. The sidewall of the spindle 211 is provided with a plurality of air holes communicated with the air passage 2111. Both outer ends of the spindle 211 are provided with an annular shoulder 2113 respectively The annular shoulder 2113, the inner wall of the cylinder body 212, and the spindle 211 constitute the air chamber 213, and through the air hole 2112, the air in the air chamber 213 can be extracted. 12 H
In order that the presswork adsorbed on the magnetic orientation cylinder can be handed over stably to the next cylinder to eliminate the presswork handover error, one feasible solution is that two radially protruding air chamber partition boards 271, 272 are further fixed in the lengthwise direction outside the spindle 211. The two air chamber partition boards 271, 272 divide the circumferential hollow portion between the spindle 211 and the cylinder body 212 into two spaces, one of which is an air chamber 213. In the space within the air chamber 213, the spindle 211 is provided with an air hole 2112 communicated with the air passage 2111. In which, the through hole 2121 on the cylinder body 212 of the magnetic orientation cylinder is preferably provided in a section corresponding to the air chamber 213. Since the first adsorption hole 222 of the annular support 22 is communicated with the through hole 2121, and the cover plate 23 is uniformly distributed with the second adsorption holes thereon, it is clear that in the process of a relative rotation between the cylinder body 212 and the spindle 211, the surface of the magnetic orientation cylinder 20 can switch the adsorption and non-adsorption functions.
Referring to Figs. 7 and 12 together, in order to achieve a more stable connection between the air chamber partition boards 271, 272 and the spindle 211, preferably two groups of corresponding grooves 2114, 2115 are provided in the radial direction on opposite inner sides of the two shoulders 2113, respectively. The two air chamber partition boards 271, 272 are embedded in the grooves 2114, 2115, respectively, and fixedly connected to the spindle 211 through screws. The cylinder body 212, the two shoulders 2113 of the spindle 11 and the two air chamber partition boards 271, 272 form the air chamber 213.
Further, the shoulder 2113, each of the air chamber partition boards 271, 272 and the cylinder body 212 form a clearance fitting, i.e., the outer diameter of the shoulder 2113, and the distance from the outer end surface of each of the air chamber partition boards 271, 272 to the center of the cylinder body 212 are slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the cylinder body 212, so that the cylinder body 212 is freely rotatable on the spindle 211, without any friction interference with the air chamber partition board. In order to achieve the above object, when the air chamber partition boards are fixed to the spindle 211, preferably each of the air chamber partition boards 271, 272 is set to have a clearance of 0.lmm-4mm between its outer end surface and the inner wall surface of the cylinder body 212, and the shoulder 2113 also has a clearance of 0.lmm-4mm between its outer circumferential surface and the inner wall surface of the cylinder body 212.
As illustrated in Fig. 3, two air chamber partition boards 271, 272 divide the rotary air valve 21 into a space having adsorption function (air chamber 213) and a space having no adsorption function. In which, since the spindle 211 is not provided with any air hole 2112 in section A, the section A forms the space having no adsorption function. In the section of included angle a (360°-A), since the spindle 211 is provided with the air hole 2112, the space having adsorption function is formed in this section, that is, this space is formed as the air chamber 213. That is, in the rotation process of the cylinder body 212, when the through hole 2121 provided thereon enters the air chamber 213, the annular support 22 corresponding to that portion of cylinder body 212 obtains the adsorption function; and when the cylinder body 212 is rotated such that the through hole 2121 provided thereon goes away from the air chamber 213 and enters the section A, the annular support 22 corresponding to that portion of cylinder body 212 loses the adsorption function.
The working principle of the magnetic orientation cylinder 20 is that the spindle 211 does not rotate, and the cylinder body 212 is driven to be rotated by a drive system, e.g.1 through a gear drive. In the rotation process of the cylinder body 212, when the through bole 2121 of the cylinder body 212 is corresponding to the section A between the two air chamber partition boards 271, 272, the magnetic orientation cylinder 20 does not have the adsorption function since the spindle 211 has no air hole 2112 thereon in the section.
When the cylinder body 212 is rotated such that the through hole 2121 provided thereon enters the air chamber 213 (i.e., section 360°-A) between the two air chamber partition boards 271, 272, the second adsorption hole on the cover plate 23, the first adsorption hole 222 of the annular support 22, and the through hole 2121 on the cylinder body 212 are communicated in order, and the air extracting device extracts air from the surface of the magnetic orientation cylinder 20 through the air passage 2111 and the air hole 2112 of the spindle and the air chamber 213, such that the surface of the magnetic orientation cylinder 20 has the adsorption function. When the circumference surface of the cylinder body 212 having the through hole 2121 in the rotary air valve 1 entirely enters the section 360°-A between the two air chamber partition boards 271, 272, that part of surface of the cylinder body 212 has the strongest adsorption force, i.e., the magnetic orientation cylinder 20 achieves the maximum adsorption capability. With the rotation of the cylinder body 2121, the magnetic orientation cylinder 20 switches between two states of having and not having the adsorption function. Through the structure of the rotary air valve, the magnetic orientation cylinder ensures the stability of the presswork handover, reduces the unstable factors in the presswork magnetization process such as sheet drift, and improves the quality of the presswork pattern magnetic orientation.
Moreover, in the magnetic orientation cylinder, when the axial and circumferential s positions of the magnetic field generating device 221 of the annular support 22 need to be adjusted according to the layout of the presswork, on one hand, since the annular supports 22 are spaced from each other in a certain distance L (see Fig. 2), and each annular support 22 is fixedly connected to the cylinder body through the friction force generated between the connecting key 2124 and the keyway, the fixation between the o connecting key 2124 and the keyway 2122, 2123 can be cancelled by loosening the connecting bolt 28 which connects the annular support 22 with the connecting key, so that the connecting key 2124 and the annular support 22 axially move together in the keyway, thereby performing the axial adjustment of the magnetic field generating device 221, and achieving the purpose of adjusting the axial position of the magnetic field Is generating device 221. On the other hand, since the magnetic field generating device 221 is fixed in the annular groove 2251 of the annular support 22 through the pressing plate 226 and the set screw 227, when the circumferential position of the magnetic field generating device 221 needs to be adjusted, the end surface fixation of the magnetic field generating device 221 can be cancelled by loosening the set screw 227, and the magnetic field generating device 221 is moved in the annular groove 2251 until it reaches an appropriate position, then the set screw 227 is tightened to fasten the magnetic field generating device 221, thus the circumferential position of the magnetic field generating device 221 can be conveniently adjusted.
Fig. 9 is a structure principle diagram of a drying paper delivery cylinder of an ink photo-curing unit according to the present invention; Fig. 10 is a sectional schematic diagram along line D-D in Fig. 9; and Fig. 11 is a structure schematic diagram of a spindle of a drying paper delivery cylinder according to the present invention.
As illustrated in Figs. 9 and 11, the drying paper delivery cylinder 30 includes a cylinder body 31 and a spindle 32. The cylinder body 31 is a hollow cylinder rotatably nested on the spindle 211. Both ends of the spindle are provided with an annular shoulder 323 respectively. An air chamber 33 is formed between the cylinder body 31 and the two shoulders 323 of the spindle 32. As illustrated in Fig. 9, in this embodiment, the cylinder body 31 is supported on the spindle 32 through bearings 341, 342. One end of the spindle 32 is closed, and the other end is open, i.e., the spindle 32 is axially provided with a hollow air passage 321. The spindle is connected to the air extracting device, and extracts the air in the air chamber 33 via a plurality of air holes 322 which are provided on the spindle 32 and communicated with the air passage 321. In addition, the roll wall of the cylinder body 31 is provided with a cooling passage 311 connected to a cooling water circulation system, and adsorption air holes 312 communicated with the air chamber 33.
Referring to Fig. 10 in coordination, an optional solution is to axially provide the cooling passage 311 on the roll wall of the cylinder body 31. In order to uniformly cool the whole sheet in the delivery process, preferably a plurality of cooling passages 311 are 0 uniformly and circumferentially distributed on the roll wall of the cylinder body 31 in a certain interval, and the plurality of the cooling passages are connected in serials with each other. In which, one end of a cooling passage 311 is connected to the water inlet 38, and one end of another cooling passage is connected to a water outlet (not illustrated).
Another optional solution is that the cylinder body 31 is axially provided with a plurality of adsorption air holes 312 arranged radially. Referring to Figs. 9 and 10 in coordination, the adsorption air holes 312 are arranged between two adjacent cooling passages 311, and the adsorption air holes 312 are uniformly distributed in the lengthwise direction of the cylinder body 31, so that the sheet is stably adsorbed on the drying paper delivery cylinder.
In the process of printing a sheet-like paper or a web-like paper, the drying paper delivery cylinder of the present invention can adsorb the sheet on the cylinder surface, so that the sheet is stable during the delivery. In addition, the sheet can be effectively cooled through the cooling passage 311 provided in the cylinder body, so as to efficiently decrease the temperature of the sheet surface.
Moreover, in order that the sheet adsorbed on the drying paper delivery cylinder can be handed over stably to the next cylinder to eliminate the sheet handover error, one feasible solution is that two protruding air chamber partition boards 361, 362 are fixed in the radial direction of the spindle 32. The two air chamber partition boards 361, 362 divide the portion between the cylinder body 31 and the spindle 32 into two spaces, one of which is an air chamber 33. In the space within the air chamber 33, the spindle 32 is provided with air holes 322 communicated with the air passage 321. On the cylinder body 31, the adsorption air holes 312 are provided in a section corresponding to the air chamber 33. The circumference of the cylinder body 31, except the range for mounting the gripper bar 5, is uniformly provided with the adsorption air holes 312. The included angle a between the two air chamber partition boards 361, 362 is determined by the sheet handover position. Thus in the rotation process of the cylinder body 31, when the adsorption air hole 312 provided thereon enters the air chamber 33, that portion of cylinder body 31 obtains the sheet adsorption function; and when the cylinder body 31 is rotated such that the adsorption air holes 312 provided thereon go away from the air chamber 33, the cylinder body 31 loses the adsorption function. In which, the fitting relationships between the air chamber partition boards 361, 362 and the spindle 32, the cylinder body 31 are the same as those in the structure of the magnetic orientation cylinder, and herein are omitted.
Fig. 8 is a schematic diagram of the working condition of a specific embodiment of the drying paper delivery cylinder. In that case, the gripper bar 5 is located in a range outside the air chamber 33, and the cylinder body 31 applies no adsorption force to the paper thereon. The working principle of the drying paper delivery cylinder is described in H conjunction with a specific embodiment illustrated in Fig. 8. Fig. 8 illustrates a specific s embodiment of the drying paper delivery cylinder applied to the combined printing apparatus of the present invention. Correspondingly, the drying paper delivery cylinder is provided below a UV drying device 110, the third paper delivery cylinder 111 is provided on one side of the drying paper delivery cylinder 30, the fourth paper delivery cylinder 108 is provided on the other side of the drying paper delivery cylinder 30, and the rotation direction of each cylinder is indicated by the arrows in the drawing. In this embodiment, the sheet is transferred to the drying paper delivery cylinder 30 by the third paper delivery cylinder 111, dried by the drying device 110, and delivered to the fourth paper delivery cylinder 108 by the drying paper delivery cylinder 30, thereby being sent out of the drying means.
The drying paper delivery cylinder 30 is composed of the cylinder body 31 and the spindle 32. A plurality of adsorption air holes 312 provided radially are uniformly and axially distributed on the circumference of the cylinder body 31. A plurality of air holes 322 are uniformly and axially distributed on the circumference of the spindle 32 within a specified range of central angle (included angle a). In which, the adsorption air holes 312 are uniformly distributed on the whole outer roll body 31 (except the position for mounting the sheet gripper bar 5), and the distribution angle of the air holes 322 on the circumference of the spindle 2 is determined by the sheet handover position. In order H that the sheet can be stably and firmly adsorbed on the surface of the cylinder body 31 during the drying process, and smoothly delivered to the third and fourth paper delivery 7 H cylinders 111, 108 to reduce the adsorption force from the cylinder body 31, two air chamber partition boards 361, 362 are fixed on the spindle 32, and the air holes 322 are provided in a range of included angle a between the two air chamber partition boards 361, 362, usually the included angle a being smaller than 3600 and larger than or equal to 1800. The space between the cylinder body 31 and the spindle 32 is divided into two parts through the two air chamber partition boards 361, 362, i.e., a space having the adsorption function (air chamber 33) and a space having no adsorption function. As illustrated in Fig. 10, section A is the space having no adsorption function, and the region of the included angle ci (360°-A) is the space having the adsorption function, that is, the io space is formed as the air chamber 33. In addition, the spindle 32 and the cylinder body 31 are supported by and connected to each other through the bearings 341 and 342 provided outside the shoulder 323. The cylinder body 31 is driven by the gear 37 to be rotated on the spindle 32.
In addition, the gripper bar 5 may be provided on both the magnetic orientation is cylinder 20 and the drying paper delivery cylinder 30, so as to ensure smooth handover and accurate delivery of the sheet in the magnetic orientation or drying process.
The working principle of the combined printing apparatus of the present invention is that the sheet passes a paper transport section 118, a paper feeding cylinder 117, a first paper delivery cylinder 116, printing sections and a paper collecting section 101, through one time of printing, the comprehensive printing technology which uses screen printing, ink magnetic base magnetic orientation and letterpress printing can be completed on one side of a single paper, and the process from the paper transport and printing to the collection can be finished. The present invention may be applicable, but not limited to the safe printing of the secure certificates and the marketable securities.
Specifically, a sheet supplied from the paper transport section 118 enters the screen printing unit 4 after passing the paper feeding cylinder 117 and the first paper delivery cylinder 116, and then a screen printing is achieved on the sheet through the combined action of the screen impression cylinder 114 and the screen plate cylinder 115. The screen-printed sheet enters the ink magnetic base magnetic orientation unit from the second paper delivery cylinder 113, wherein the magnetic base in the ink is magnetically oriented when the sheet passes the magnetic orientation cylinder 20. Next1 the sheet enters the first ink photo-curing unit 3 from the third paper delivery cylinder 111. When the sheet passing the drying paper delivery cylinder 30, the photo-curable ink on the sheet is cured by the UV drying device 110 provided on the side of the drying paper delivery cylinder 30. The dried sheet is delivered to the letterpress impression cylinder 106 by the fourth paper delivery cylinder 108, and then to the letterpress printing unit 1.
That is, when the sheet passes the letterpress impression cylinder 106, the letterpress cylinder 103 and the letterpress impression cylinder 106 together apply a pressing force on the sheet to complete the letterpress printing on the sheet. The letterpress-printed sheet is delivered to the second ink photo-curing unit 3 by the fifth paper delivery cylinder 109. When the sheet passes the drying paper delivery cylinder 30, the photo-curable ink on the sheet is cured again by the UV drying device 110 provided on the side of the drying paper delivery cylinder 30. Finally, the sheet enters the paper collecting section o 101 via the paper-out cylinder 107.
In one printing equipment, the present invention inputs the sheets in one time, and the comprehensive printing operation can be completed through the continuous screen printing, magnetic orientation and letterpress printing, then the finished products are delivered to the paper collecting section. Thus, as compared with the prior art, the present invention can greatly shorten the production cycle, decrease the equipment investment, save the areas occupied by the production and storehouse, and reduce the human labor.
In addition, both the magnetic orientation cylinder and the drying paper delivery cylinder in the present invention use the rotary air valve, thereby smoothly adsorbing the presswork on the surface of the magnetic orientation cylinder or the drying paper delivery cylinder in the magnetic orientation or drying process of the magnetic base in the ink on the surface of the presswork. Moreover, when the magnetic orientation cylinder or the drying paper delivery cylinder is rotated such that the presswork needs to be delivered to the third paper delivery cylinder 111 or the fourth paper delivery cylinder 108 for a handover, the presswork in the handover region is no longer adsorbed by the magnetic orientation cylinder or the drying paper delivery cylinder. That is, in the handover region, the surface of the cylinder body having the presswork is located in the section A illustrated in Fig. 3, and the presswork handover error existing in the known art is eliminated since the cylinder body loses the adsorption function in the section.
The above descriptions are just exemplary embodiments of the present invention, rather than limitations to the scope of the present invention. Any equivalent changes and modifications made by a person skilled in the art without deviating from the conception or principle of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention. To be noted, various constituent parts of the present invention are not limited to the above general application, and they can be combined with other prior arts upon the actual demand. Therefore, the present invention certainly covers other combinations and specific applications related to the inventive points of the present application.
