(Cl. 101-126) This invention relates to a process and apparatus for automatic silk screen printing on curved surfaces of cy- Significant features of this invention are the provision of an endless chain for carrying cylindrical articles thereon and an endhaving discs at suitable intervals, these discs each carrying an article to be printed upon, and the latter having rollers or squeezers provided at equal intervals to those of the discs on the endless chain. 25
More particularly the present invention relates to an apparatus comprising conveyer means for carrying a plurality of cylindrical'articles in a substantially vertical position in succession past a printing station, means operatively connected to the conveyer means for freeing the articles for rotation about their axes as they move by the printingstation, and printing means located at the station for printing articles as they move by the station, the printing means including a vertical silk screen located beside and being spaced from the'conveyor means at the printing station, a plurality of oifset printing rollers, and second conveyer means carrying the offset printing rollers for moving the same along the silk screen and from the latter along a path located over and closely adjacent to the first-mentioned conveyer means at the printing station so that the articles respectively come into contact with the offset printing rollers and rotate freely by frictional engagement therewith during movement by the printing station.
The details and objects of this invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1 is a plan view of an embodiment of this invention, Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation of the most significant part of the embodiment shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 3 is a plan view of a modified embodiment of-the invention in which an olfset printing device is applied between the'printing belt and the endless chain.
Now, referring to Fig. 1, 1 is an endless belt upon which a series of inking rollers 2 are provided at suitable intervals. Adjacent to said endless belt 1, there is provided an endless chain 5 which has a series of discs 4 for carrying cylindrical articles to be printed upon such as bottles 3. At a predetermined position, a frame 6, which is fitted with a silk screen 6' is located between the endless chain 5 and the endless belt 1. The endless chain 5 and belt 1 are rotated at the same peripheralspeed in the directions shown by arrows 7, 8, by a motive source On the opposite side to the endless chain 5, there is provided an endless inking pad 9 which is rotated by two rotating drums 10, 10, the pad 9 being supplied with ink from an ink tank 12 through the reservoir 11.
Cylindrical articles to be printed upon are fed from the feeder A and are printed upon in zone B. Afterpassing through the printing zone, the articles are sent to the delivery zone. C. From the feeding zone A, where a belt conveyer 13 which has two walls 14, 14 is provided, bot- "ice 2 tles 3 are transferred in a vertical position to the holding discs 4"located respectively onthe discs 4. The bottles 3 on the holding discs 4' are carried in contact with the guide plate 1 6 the friction between each bottleand the guide plate causing the bottle to rotate on the holding disc 4 to such a position thata boss 15, providednear the bottom of each .bottle is engaged by a registration means 17 which is provided on the holding discs 4' for registering the bottle for printing. The holding-disc 4' 'is connected to the'lower disc 4 by a shaft 18 and normally they rotate together when fixed by a pin 19. However, when a bottle 3 isput into position for printing, the engagement of the pin 19 is released .by'a pressingplate 22' (described hereinafter) .resultingin theholding disk 4' with a bottle 3 thereonbeingable torotate freely with respect .to the lower disk 4'. The bottle 3 is prevented from falling down by being firmly held by the holding rollers 20, 20 and'the supporter 21 which are provided on the'lower disc 4. In this manner, the bottlesare put in order for undergoing printing at the printing zone l3. Theprinting is carried out by the printing roller 2 'on the curved surface of a bottle 3 through the silk screen '6' while the endless belt 1 and the endless chain-5 are rotating at the same peripheral speed. For undergoing printing, the non-rotatable engagement between-the holding disc 4 andthe lower disc 4 is-released by lowering the pin 19, the bottle 3 rotating together withthe disc 4 due to the engagement of the boss with the-registratio'n' means 17. During this operation, the bottle is firmly held by the'holdi'ng rollers "20, and the supor'ter 21,
but as soon as "the printing is over, the rotation of the bottle's'tops andthe engagement between theholding disc 4' and the lower disc 4 is resumed with the return'of the pin 19to'its engaging position. During the printing operation, the endless belt 1 and the endless chain 5 are pressed'towards each other by the press guides '27, 22, in order to obtain correct and clear printing. The fore partZZ of the pressguide 22 is so constructed (as shown by dotted lines in Fig. 1) as to move back and forth. In its'normal position, part 22' ishel'd to the right, as viewed in Fig. 1, but is used to press the lower 'disc 4 against the silk screen'at the beginning of printing. These .press guides .22, '22 control the movement of the pin 19 which is used for controllably engaging the holding disc4' with the lower disc 4. Thus, the bottles '3 which have been printed upon as desired are carried out of the printing zone B to the delivery zone C. Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of this invention wherein an offset printing .device is appliedbetween the silk screen 6 and'the endless chain "5. An endless chain 25 which'is provided with a series of offset rollers 26.at the same intervals as that of the printing rollers Zof thecha-in belt 1, that islto say, at the same intervalsas the bottles to be printed on the endless chain 5. In this manner, a preliminary print is first obtained through the silk screen onto each offset roller 26 and this print on the offset roller is in turn"transferred to a bottle to be printed upon anendless chain 5. In this manner, a print ofbetter appearance is obtained on each bottle inasmuch .asthe printof the screen'tecture in the :case of a direct print, isprevented.
The other devices such as the feeder, delivery means and ink supplying means, are identical to those in'the first-mentioned embodiment.
It will be understood that each of the elements described above, or two or more together, may also'find a useful application in other types of printingapparatus differing from the'types described above.
While the invention has been illustrated'and described as embodied in printing apparatusfor printing on bottles, it is not intended to be limited to the details shown, since various modifications and structural changesmay be made Without departing in any way from the spirit of the present invention.
Without further analysis, the foregoing will so fully reveal the gist of the present invention that others can by applying current knowledge readily adapt it for various applications without omitting features that, from the standpoint of priorrart, fairly constitute essential characteristics of the generic or specific aspects of this invention and, therefore, such adaptations should and are intended to be comprehended within the meaning and range of equivalence of the following claims.
