Description

  The present invention relates to an ink fountain device for a printing press suitable for removing and cleaning ink remaining in an ink fountain.

  In an ink fountain device of a printing press, it is necessary to perform cleaning every time the color is changed. In this cleaning, the inner surface of the ink fountain must also be completely cleaned. Cleaning the inner surface of the ink fountain is done by cleaning the ink collected at the boundary between the bottom surface and the ink basin because the inner surface of the ink fountain is composed of a bottom surface and an ink basin approximately perpendicular to the bottom surface. Since it is difficult to do and automation is difficult, the actual situation is that the worker is doing it manually. This manual cleaning is cumbersome, which not only increases the burden on the operator, but also increases the work time, which causes a decrease in productivity.

In order to solve this problem, in a conventional ink fountain device of a printing press, a film-like shape comprising a band-like portion covering the bottom surface of the ink fountain of the ink fountain body and ear portions covering both sides of the ink fountain ink fountain. A cover is provided, and a method of removing ink remaining on the cover by moving the cover at the time of cleaning is employed (for example, see Patent Document 1). In addition, the applicant could not find prior art documents closely related to the present invention by the time of filing other than the prior art documents specified by the prior art document information described in this specification. .
JP-A-9-99544 (paragraphs “0016” and “0021” and FIGS. 4 and 5)

  In the above-described conventional ink fountain device of a printing press, the ink fountain rotates from the position perpendicular to the bottom surface of the ink fountain along the end surface of the ink fountain. The portion between the bottom surface of the ink fountain and the ink clog was pulled, and there was a possibility that the cover was cut and the ink leaked. In addition, even if you try to clean the ink fountain by rotating the ink fountain without using the cover, the structure of the ink fountain is rotated along the end surface of the ink fountain. There is also a problem that the ink adhering to the overlapping portion cannot be removed because the overlapping portion is generated between the two. Further, in the ink fountain device of the conventional printing press described above, as shown in FIG. 20A, the bent portion 106 formed on the ear portion 102 of the film-like cover 101 is connected to the front end of the ink scum 107 and the ridge. The structure sandwiched between the peripheral surfaces of the rollers 108 is adopted. Therefore, a part of the ear part 102 of the cover 101 is bent at a right angle, and the bent part 106 is brought into contact with the peripheral surface of the scissors roller 108 so as to bend in a direction perpendicular to the bent direction. A large number of wrinkles 109 are generated in the bent portion 106 without the whole 106 being in close contact with the peripheral surface of the wrinkle roller. For this reason, since a large number of gaps are formed between the bent portion 106 and the peripheral surface of the saddle roller 108 by the large number of ridges 109, there is a problem that ink leaks from these gaps. Further, the bent portion 106 is dragged by the rotation of the reed roller 108, and the cover 101 is bent several times between the front end of the ink deposit 107 and the peripheral surface of the reed roller 108 as shown in FIG. In some cases, the ink leaks due to an increase in the gap between the cover 101 and the reed roller 108 interposed.

As shown in FIG. 4, the ink stake 10 attached integrally with the ink fountain 10 rotates counterclockwise, and the angle between the side surface 10a of the ink fountain and the bottom surface 7a of the ink fountain becomes 90 °.

  The position of the ink scum 10 is hereinafter referred to as a first position, and in this first position, the clamping member 38 comes into contact with the end surface 3a of the reed roller 3 as shown in FIG.

  On the other hand, when the rod 44a of the ink fountain opening / closing air cylinder 44 is advanced from this state, the lever 46 is rotated counterclockwise in the drawing around the rotation shaft 42 via the pin 45, and is rotated. The shaft 42 also rotates counterclockwise.

  When the rotation shaft 42 is rotated counterclockwise, as shown in FIG. 6B, the gear portion 36 engaged with the gear portion 42a of the rotation shaft 42 is rotated clockwise. The ink sachet 10 attached integrally with the ink fountain 10 also rotates in the clockwise direction, and the angle formed between the side surface 10a of the ink fountain and the bottom surface 7a of the ink fountain is 180 °, as indicated by a two-dot chain line in FIG. Thus, the side surface 10a of the ink fountain and the bottom surface 7a of the ink fountain are positioned on the same plane.

  The position of the ink scum 10 is hereinafter referred to as a second position. In this second position, a gap L is provided between the lower end of the ink scum 10 and the end surface 3 a of the reed roller 3.

  In FIG. 8, 48 is a cleaning start push button for starting the cleaning of the ink fountain, and 49 is a fountain return starting push button for returning the ink fountain after the cleaning of the ink fountain is completed.

  Next, a cleaning operation and an operation for returning the ink fountain in the ink fountain apparatus having such a configuration will be described mainly with reference to FIGS. First, the cleaning operation will be described.

  During the printing operation, as shown in FIG. 3, the side surface 10 a of the ink fountain 10 of the pair of ink basins 10 contacts the end surface 3 a of the fountain roller 3 to form the ink fountain together with the ink fountain body 7.

  In this state, when printing is completed and the ink fountain is washed, when the washing start push button 48 (see FIG. 8) is turned on in S1 of FIG. 16, the controller 25 causes the fountain key motor 8 (see FIG. 8). 8), the ink fountain key 0 is set so that the intervals between all the ink fountain keys 9 and the fountain rollers 3 become "0" (S2).

  If the intervals between all the ink fountain keys 9 and the fountain rollers 3 do not become “0”, the ink fountain key 0 is set again in S2. When the intervals between all the ink fountain keys 9 and the fountain rollers 3 become “0”, the fountain roller motor 6 (see FIG. 8) is driven, and as shown in FIG. Rotates (S3).

  The ink on the reed roller 3 is removed by the ink reed key 9 by the rotation of the reed roller 3, and the driving of the reed roller motor 6 is stopped and the rotation of the reed roller 3 is stopped in S4.

  In FIG. 4, when the rod 44a of the ink staking open / close air cylinder 44 is moved forward, the ink stake 10 is rotated from the first position shown by the two-dot chain line to the second position shown by the solid line in FIG. 10 (b). Then, it is opened from the end surface 3a of the reed roller 3 (S5).

  In FIG. 3, when the rod 40 a of the ink foward advance / retreat air cylinder 40 is retracted, as shown in FIG. 10A, the ink stake 10 moves backward and moves in the direction of arrow B in FIG. The member 38 is separated from the end surface 3a of the saddle roller 3 (S6).

  In FIG. 8, the air cylinder 11 for opening and closing the tub is operated, and as shown in FIG. 10A, the ink fountain body 7 is rotated counterclockwise around the rotation center 12 to open the ink fountain. (S7). At the same time, in FIG. 8, the heel roller motor 6 is driven to rotate the heel roller 3 (S8).

  At the same time, in FIG. 8, the cover winding motor 17 is driven, the cover winding roll 18 is rotated, and the cover 13 is conveyed in the direction of arrow B in the figure (S9). At this time, since the reed roller 3 is rotating, the ink remaining on the peripheral surface of the reed roller 3 is transferred onto the cover 13. In S10, the driving of the heel roller motor 6 is stopped and the rotation of the heel roller 3 is stopped.

  As shown in FIG. 11, a new portion of the cover 13 covers the bottom surface 7a of the ink fountain body 7, and the sandwiched portion 27a of the ear portion 27 holds the ink sachet 10 as shown in FIG. When it comes into contact with the upper edge 38a of the member 38, the cover stop position detection sensor 23 is turned on in S11.

  Accordingly, the drive of the cover winding motor 17 is stopped, the winding of the cover 13 is stopped in S12, and the remaining ink 21 is scraped off and removed by the ink removing device 20, and the washing operation of the tub is completed. (S13).

  Here, as shown in FIG. 6 (d), a gap L is provided between the lower end of the ink scum 10 and the end surface 3 a of the reed roller 3. As shown in FIG. 15A, a non-contact portion 27 d that is not in contact with the upper end edge 38 a is formed between the clamping member 38 of the ink scale 10 and the end surface 3 a of the reed roller 3.

  Next, the operation for returning the ink fountain will be described.

  In S15, when the fountain return start push button 49 is turned ON, the control device 25 controls the fountain opening / closing air cylinder 11 (both see FIG. 8) to be driven, and as shown in FIG. Rotates around the rotation center 12 in the clockwise direction in the figure, and the ink fountain key 9 faces the peripheral surface of the fountain roller 3 to close the fountain (S16).

  In S17, the rod 40a of the ink fountain advance / retreat air cylinder 40 moves forward, so that the ink squirt 10 moves in the direction of arrow A as shown in FIG. It faces a part of the end surface 3a of the roller 3.

  At this time, the pinched portion 27a of the ear portion 27 is in contact with the upper end edge 38a between the pinching member 38 of the ink pad 10 and the end surface 3a of the reed roller 3, as shown in FIG. The non-contact part 27d which is not present is formed.

  Therefore, when the ink scale 10 moves in the direction of arrow A, as shown in FIG. 15B, only the portion other than the non-contact portion 27d of the sandwiched portion 27a is moved in the direction of arrow A by the sandwiching member 38. A recess is formed in the non-contact part 27d.

  In this state, when the rod 44a of the ink staking open / close air cylinder 44 is retracted in S18, the ink stake 10 is rotated from the second position to be positioned at the first position. Close the end face 3a.

  Therefore, the clamping member 38 comes into contact with the end surface 3 a of the roller 3, the ear 27 is bent, and the clamped portion 27 a of the ear 27 is sandwiched between the clamping member 38 and the end surface 3 a of the roller 3, so The side surface 10 a of the ten ink fountains is covered by the contact portion 27 c of the ear portion 27.

  At this time, since the recess is formed in the non-contact portion 27d, when the ear portion 27 is bent, a fold line 27e is formed at the bottom of the non-contact portion 27d, and the fold line 27e is folded. Thus, the non-contact portion 27d is sandwiched between the pinching member 38 of the ink deposit 10 and the end surface 3a of the roller 3 in a state where the non-contact portion 27d is doubled.

  In this manner, the overlapped portion is formed at the lower portion of the ear portion 27 of the cover 13 that is sandwiched between the clamping member 38 of the ink wetting 10 and the end surface 3a of the roller 3. The sealing state between the clamping member 38 and the end surface 3a of the roller 3 is improved. Therefore, the ink in the ink fountain can regulate leakage from between the clamping member 38 of the ink basin 10 and the end surface 3 a of the roller 3.

  Further, the ink holder 10 is moved in the direction of arrow A and moved from the second position to the first position, so that the held portion 27a of the cover 13 is sandwiched between the ink holder 10 and the end surface 3a of the reed roller 3. As a result, even if the sandwiched portion 27a is slightly displaced, a portion that is not covered with the cover 13 does not occur in the ink scale 10. Therefore, even if the stop position of the cover 13 is slightly shifted by the cover stop position detection sensor 23, ink does not leak from the ink fountain.

  In addition, since the sandwiched portion 27a of the cover 13 is sandwiched between the ink scum 10 and the end surface 3a of the heel roller 3, it is possible to prevent the ear portion 27 of the cover 13 from being caught by the rotation of the heel roller 3.

  In addition, by providing a margin 27 b that does not contact the ink staking 10 on the ear 27 of the cover 13, even if the ear 27 is slightly displaced with respect to the ink sachet 10, There are no uncovered parts. For this reason, since ink does not adhere to the ink scale 10, cleaning becomes easy.

  Further, the holding member 38 attached to the ink scum 10 can be replaced by releasing the screwing of the bolt 55, so that maintenance is easy.

  In addition, since the end surface 3a of the heel roller 3 is sufficiently polished or plated to reduce the frictional force between the end surface 3a and the ear portion 27, the heel roller 3 is caused by the frictional force of the pressing member 38. It is possible to prevent the ear portion 27 of the cover 13 from being caught by the rotation of.

  Further, since it is not necessary to provide the cover 13 with a cut groove for bending, the processing of the cover 13 is facilitated.

  Further, since the clamping member 38 is formed of a rubber-like elastic material, the ink squeeze 10 and the reed roller 3 are in a state where the ink sachet 10 is rotated to the first position by the air cylinder 44 for opening and closing the ink stake. Even if a slight gap is generated between the end surface 3a, it can be absorbed by the elastic deformation of the clamping member 38. Therefore, the cover 13 can be securely sandwiched between the clamping member 38 and the end surface 3a of the saddle roller 3.

  Further, since the ear portion 27 of the cover 13 is folded back by the ink wetting 10 and the ear portion 27 is sandwiched between the ink wetting 10 and the end surface 3a of the scissors roller 3, wrinkles are generated in the sandwiched portion as in the prior art. Since there is no ink leakage, ink leakage from the ink fountain can be prevented.

  FIG. 17 shows a second embodiment of the present invention, where FIG. 17A is a plan view of the main part, FIG. 17B is a front view of the main part, and FIG. 17C is the same figure (a). XVII (c) -XVII (c) cross-sectional view, FIG. 4 (d) is a cross-sectional view XVII (d) -XVII (d) in FIG. 1 (a), and FIG. (E) -XVII (e) sectional drawing and the figure (f) are XVII (f) -XVII (f) sectional drawings in the figure (a).

  The ink squeeze driving means generally indicated by reference numeral 70 in the drawing is provided with a fixed block 71 fixed on the frame 7b of the ink fountain body 7, and the fixed block 71 includes two support blocks 72 and 73. Are spaced apart in the direction of arrows A-B and are attached to face each other.

  Between these support blocks 72 and 73, as shown in FIG. 4D, an advancing / retreating shaft 75 is supported so as to be movable in the directions of arrows A-B and to be rotatable around the axis line. Ink scale 10 is integrally attached.

  Reference numeral 76 denotes an ink fountain advance / retreat air cylinder, which is fixed to the support block 72 via a bracket 77. One end of the advance / retreat shaft 75 is rotatable around the axis at the tip of the rod 76a of the air cylinder 76. Is pivotally attached.

  Reference numeral 79 denotes an ink staking open / close rotor reactor fixed to the support block 72, and a drive gear 80 is mounted on the output shaft 79 a, and the drive gear 80 is attached to a shaft 82 implanted in the support block 72. It meshes with an intermediate gear 81 that is rotatably supported. Reference numeral 83 denotes a gear serving as a rotating body attached to the advance / retreat shaft 75 and meshes with the intermediate gear 81.

  By adopting such a configuration, the output gear 79a of the rotary actuator 79 for opening and closing the ink fountain is rotated in the clockwise direction in FIG. , The gear 83 also rotates clockwise.

  Therefore, the forward / backward shaft 75 on which the gear 83 is attached also rotates in the clockwise direction, and the ink fountain 10 also rotates in the clockwise direction. Therefore, as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. The bottom surface 7a and the side surface 10a of the ink fountain are positioned at a second position where the angle is 180 °, which is an obtuse angle.

  In this state, when the rod 76a of the ink foward advance / retreat air cylinder 76 is retracted, the advance / retreat shaft 75 moves in the direction of arrow B in FIG. Also moves in the direction of arrow B.

  Accordingly, since the ink scum 10 is positioned at the second position and is separated from the reed roller 3 (not shown), the ink remaining in the ink fountain is cleaned as in the first embodiment. Is possible.

  When the ink remaining in the ink fountain has been cleaned, the rod 76a of the ink cylinder 76 is moved forward so that the advance / retreat shaft 75 moves in the direction of arrow A in FIG. The ink weir 10 attached integrally with the nozzle 10 also moves in the arrow A direction.

  Therefore, the ink squirt 10 is positioned at the second position, and the nipping member 38 of the ink stake 10 is positioned at a position facing the end surface 3 a of the saddle roller 3.

  In this state, the output gear 79a of the rotary actuator 79 for opening and closing the ink fountain is rotated counterclockwise in FIG. 5C, so that the drive gear 80 rotates counterclockwise. The gear 83 also rotates counterclockwise.

  Accordingly, the forward / backward shaft 75 on which the gear 83 is attached also rotates counterclockwise, and the ink deposit 10 also rotates counterclockwise. In the same drawing, the ink reservoir 10 is in the second position indicated by a two-dot chain line. Thus, as shown by the solid line, it is positioned at the first position in contact with the end surface 3a of the saddle roller 3.

  In this state, as in the first embodiment described above, the ear portion 27 (none of which is shown) of the cover 13 is sandwiched between the clamping member 38 of the ink sachet 10 and the end surface 3a of the reed roller 3. As a result, the bottom surface 7a of the ink fountain and both side surfaces 10a of the ink fountain are covered with the cover 13 and printing is possible.

  18 and 19 show a third embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 18 is a side view showing a state in which cleaning is started, and FIG. 19 is a side view after completion of cleaning. In the third embodiment, an example in which cleaning is performed without providing a film-like cover 13 is shown. That is, as shown in FIG. 18, the ink roller 21 is rotated to store the ink 21 in the ink fountain. Thereafter, the ink is removed with a spatula or the like in a state where the ink weir 10 is positioned at the first position.

  After removing most of the ink, as shown in FIG. 19, the ink fountain body 7 is rotated to open the ink fountain, and the ink fountain 10 is positioned at the second position, so that the bottom surface 7a of the ink fountain 7 and the ink fountain 10 Remove ink between. In this way, since the ink can be removed in a state where the bottom surface 7a of the ink fountain and the side surface of the ink fountain 10 are located on the same plane, the bottom surface 7a of the ink fountain and the ink basin 10 can be removed. The ink in between can be easily removed. In the third embodiment, the ink scale 10 may be supported rotatably between the first position and the second position without being able to advance and retreat in the direction of the reed roller 3. .

  The sandwiching member 38 is formed of nitrile rubber. However, when UV ink is used, it is desirable to use fluorine rubber having melt resistance. The hardness of the clamping member 38 is preferably Hs30-80.

  In the present embodiment, the cover 13 having the band-like portion 26 covering the bottom surface 7a of the ink fountain and the ear portions 27 covering both side surfaces 3a of the ink fountain is provided, but the ink fountain is washed without providing the cover 13. You may make it do. In that case, when the ink fountain is washed, the ink fountain 10 is positioned at the second position, so that the angle formed by the both side surfaces 10a of the ink fountain with respect to the bottom surface 7a of the ink fountain becomes obtuse. In particular, cleaning between the bottom surface 7a of the ink fountain and both side surfaces 10a of the ink fountain is facilitated.

  Further, in order to sandwich the ear portion 27 of the cover 13 between the clamping member 38 of the ink wetting 10 and the end surface 3a of the scissors roller 3, the ink wetting 10 is moved forward in the second position, and thereafter The rotation is performed to the first position. However, in the case where ink leakage can be prevented without duplicating the sandwiched portion, the end face holding portion 27a of the ear portion 27 of the cover 13 is cut from the belt-shaped portion 26, whereby the ink scum 10 is moved to the arrow. The end surface holding portion 27a is moved between the pinching member 38 of the ink fountain 10 and the end surface 3a of the ink fountain roller 3 only by the operation of rotating from the second position to the first position without moving back and forth in the AB direction. It may be sandwiched between. In that case, no wrinkle is generated in the end surface holding portion 27a sandwiched between the clamping member 38 of the ink scum 10 and the end surface 3a of the ink fountain roller 3, and the cover 13 is dragged by the rotation of the ink fountain roller 3. Therefore, leakage of ink from the ink fountain can be prevented. In addition, the second position of the ink fountain 10 is a position where the angle formed between the side surface 10a of the ink fountain and the bottom surface 7a of the ink fountain body 7 is 180 °. However, the angle is not limited to 180 ° and may be an obtuse angle. Good. Further, the cover 13 is formed in a long shape and is a winding type. However, the cover 13 may be replaced as a single sheet instead of the winding type.
