Definitions

  • the time required to print a given design by known machines and methods was equal to the sum of the time it took to perform each of the neces sary succeeding operation or series of steps, as for example, indexing the material, then positioning the screen and associated squeegee on the material, then printing the material by moving either the squeegee or the screen and material relative to the other during the printing stroke, then raising the screen and squeegee off the material, returning the screen and squeegee to start position, and then repeating the indexing of the material again in readying for the next repeat.
  • an object of this invention is to provide an improved method for screen printing repeating designs on continuous strips of material either longitudinally or transversely of the material at a considerably faster rate than by the methods now known.
  • Another object is to provide a machine for automatically performing the improved method of screen printing transversely or along the weft of a material.
  • Still another object is to provide for improved means and manner of increasing the accuracy of the indexing and printing a continuous strip of material.
  • Still another object of this invention is to provide for the respective and opposite movement of the screen and squeegee relative to each other during screen printing longitudinally of the material an amount sufiicient to assure that the squeegee overrides the stenciled area of the screen to provide the necessary overlap for accurate printing and positive indexing.
  • Still another object is to provide a method of transversely printing a continuous strip of material whereby the printing and indexing of the material is performed simultaneously.
  • the method is preferably automatically carried out on a machine that includes an endless belt on which the material to be printed is supported, means for positively holding the belt and material thereon in its exact stopping position between indexing operation, a printing head included the screen reciprocally mounted for movement with the belt for indexing the same, means for moving the screen and associated squeegee vertically between printing and non-printing positions, means for gripping the printing head to the belt and material, means for reciprocating the printing head to index belt and material gripped thereto when the screen and squeegee are in printing position, and means providing for either the relative opposite or transverse movement of squeegee with respect to the movement of its associated screen to effect, respectively, either longitudinal printing or transverse printing of the machine as the material is being indexed.
  • a feature of this invention resides in the provision wherein indexing and printing of the material are simultaneously performed, and thereby elfecting a complete screen printing indexing operation in a minimum amount of time.
  • Another feature resides in the provision of a machine for simultaneously performing a printing and indexing operation having an interchangeable printiiig head for effecting either longitudinal printing or transverse printing of a strip of material.
  • Another feature resides in the provision of an improved printing head having a screen and associated screen constructed and arranged so that the movement of the squeegee is opposite to that of its associated screen during the printing and indexing operation.
  • Another feature resides in the provision of an improved modified printing head construction in which the squeegee is moved transversely of its associated screen during a simultaneous printing and indexing operation.
  • Still another feature of the invention resides in the improved drive means for indexing the belt and material carried thereby during the printing of the material.
  • Still another feature of this invention resides in the vacuum means utilized for alternately clamping the screen carriage and the belt during a printing operation.
  • Still another feature resides in the provisions of means 3 for assisting the driving of the belt end rollers during the indexing operation.

  • the instant invention is directed to an improved method and apparatus for the screen printing of repeating designs on a continuous strip of material, e.g. paper, cardboard, metal, glass, plastic, or woven fabric and the like.
  • a continuous strip of material e.g. paper, cardboard, metal, glass, plastic, or woven fabric and the like.
  • repeating design is herein meant to include the printing of a single continuous distinct design in succeeding sections, or to repeating a given design several times on a continuous strip of material.
  • the method of this invention comprises the steps of continuously and successively taking a section of a sheet of material from a source of continuous supply and placing the same on a movable or indexing belt.
  • the material to be printed is of a porous nature, e.g. a woven fabric, it is held in position on the indexing belt by means of a suitable adhesive or gum.
  • the indexing belt is formed with a perforated surface arranged to pass over a suction producing means so that by evacuating the air from beneath the belt and material, the material is held fast in place on the belt in a manner disclosed in a copending application Serial No. 159,956, filed Dec. 18, 1961. With the material and belt held fast, a reciprocating printing carriage adapted to carry therealong a printing head including a screen is placed on the material, the printing head and screen being mounted for vertical movement between printing and non-printing positions.
  • An independently movable squeegee is associated with the screen.
  • the printing head screen and associated squeegee are lowered onto the material, and the carriage carrying the printing head is made fast to the belt and material carrier thereby.
  • the printing carriage including the screen, belt and material thus secured, are then moved as one in the direction of belt travel a distance equal to the repeat of the design.
  • the independently movable squeegee is simultaneously moved across the screen to effect the printing step in a direction either opposite to or transverse to the movement of the belt, depending on whether the printing is to be performed in the direction longitudinally or transversely of the material.
  • the indexing and printing of the material are thus simultaneously performed with the printing action being effected by the movement of the squeegee relative to the screen and the movement of the squeegee being synchronized with the indexing of the belt.
  • the screen is gradually raised off the material, i.e. one end is raised before the other as the squeegee is performing the printing operation, so that at the end of the printing and indexing operation the screen is raised completely off the material.
  • the squeegee is also raised above the material.
  • the printing carriage is then released from the belt and material carried thereby. With the belt and material held fast in place, the printing carriage, printing head and screen carried thereby, and the associated squeegee are each returned to their start position in readiness to repeat the operation.
