SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is a principal object of the present invention to provide a washing apparatus for removing the water soluble areas of the plastic emulsion covered printing plate of the type disclosed in my aforesaid application for United States Patent.
Another object is to provide a continuously operating washing apparatus whose construction allows a number of such printing plates to each be processed in turn with only a single operator required to mount ac tivated plates onto a revolving drum of the apparatus and to remove washed plates therefrom.
Another object is to provide a water recycling arrangement within the apparatus wherein water sprayed is caught and reheated as needed for reuse therein.
Still another object is to provide means within the apparatus for the removal of moisture from the developed plate.
Still another object is to provide a means for easily and releasably securing the aforesaid printing plates to the revolving drum of the apparatus.
Principal features of the present invention include a housing wherein a number of compartments are arranged around a drum revolving therein, one of said compartments providing an access aperture through the housing to the drum. Some of the compartments contain nozzles directed towards the revolving drum and uniformly spraying, with temperature controlled water, a plastic emulsion covered printing plate mounted thereon. Spring clamps on the drum are used to releasably position the printing plates as the clamps move past the access aperture. The spray nozzles in each compartment are stationary and are arranged in a pattern that will provide overlapping coverage to uniformly wash the entire face of each printing plate moving past the nozzles.
The revolving drum carries each printing plate from the compartment containing the water sprays to a compartment containing apparatus for drying the washed printing plate. The drying apparatus consists of a number of air jets and an arrangement of heat lamps all of which are directed against the revolving drum so as to remove water from the relief surface of a printing plate mounted thereon.
Continued drum revolution passes the washed and dried printing plate back to the access aperture where it is removed before another unwashed, exposed plate is placed thereon.
The heated water sprayed in the apparatus is collected into a storage tank through drains in the housing,
is reheated to the extent necessary to maintain the desired wash temperature, and is recirculated by again pumping it through the spray nozzles.
Brush seals are provided at the sides of the access aperture in the apparatus to allow free rotation of the drum while preventing water and air spray from coming into the access aperture and at a divider installed between washing and drying compartments.
Sets of swivelling spring clamps are mounted to the revolving drum to secure the corners of the printing plates to the outer wall of the drum.
Additional objects and features of the invention will become apparent from the following detailed description and drawings disclosing what is presently contemplated as being the best mode of the invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Referring now to the drawings:
In the illustrated preferred embodiment, the continuous plastic relief printing plate washing apparatus is shown generally at 10 and includes a housing 11 that when viewed from above has a hexagon shape, sup ported by legs 14a of a framework shown generally at 14. A circular drum I2 is arranged to rotate within the housing 11. A motor 13 mounted below the housing 11, on a beam 14b on frame 14 and is held in place by bolts, not shown, slowly drives drum 12 through a transmission 15 that is also supported by beam 14b.
Each spray nozzle assembly 16, shown best in FIG. 6, consists of four upstanding manifold pipes 18 that extend from a common header pipe 18a, in parallel arrangement with one another. Nipples 19 extend from each pipe 18 towards the drum l2 and a spray nozzle 20 is mounted on the end of each nipple. Each nozzle 20 is mounted to spray water over a defined segment of a printing plate 21 secured to the drum 12, as will be hereinafter described in detail. Each nozzle 20 is mounted to be diagonally offset with respect to its adjacent nozzles so that a uniform spraying occurs at all areas of each printing plate 21.
Water passing through nozzles impinges on drum 12 and on printing plates 21 mounted thereon, and then flows from the compartment 17 through a common drain 22 provided in the compartment bottom 17a. The compartment bottom 17a is shown inclined towards the drain 22 to insure proper draining. Drain 22 is connected by a line 23 to a reservoir tank 24, mounted below housing 11, on tank supports 25 so as to be supported within the framework 14. Water temperature within tank 24 is maintained at a desired level by a conventional calrod-type, electrical heating unit that extends into the tank. As best seen in FIG. 7, a water line 26 extends from reservoir 24 to the intake of a pump 27. Water pumped through pump 27 goes through valve 27b and then through a pipe 27c and common header pipe 28 into stand pipes 280 to be again forced through common header pipe 180 into upstanding pipes 18 and sprayed from nozzles 20. Since the water within the washing apparatus is constantly being reused only a minimum heat input is required to maintain the water at a desired temperature. An inlet line, not shown, provides make up water to tank 24 from a pressure water source, not shown, and a conventional float valve, not shown, within the tank regulates the amount of make up water admitted.
As shown best in FIGS. 1 and 7, a source of compressed air enters the system through a valve 38 mounted on the framework 14, below housing 11 and supplies compressed air through an air line 38a and valve 38b to a heater 380 from where heated and compressed air passes through lines 39 and 36 to the individual nozzles 37. Electricity is supplied to the bank of heat lamps 34 through a junction box 40 and a thermostat 40a both located beneath the bottom of housing 11. Conventional electrical conduits and switches, not shown, supply electrical energy to operate the motors and valves as herein described.
The access aperture shown at 31 in housing 11 provides an operator access to the outer wall of the revolving drum 12. Seals 41 and 42, shown in this embodiment as brushes, extend along the opening sides of the access aperture to respectively seal the aperture from the adjacent compartment 17 and chamber 32.
As has been disclosed previously printing plates 21 are releasably secured to the revolving drum 12 for transport through the washing apparatus. As removal and installation of each plate must be accomplished while a portion of the drum turns within the access aperture 31, it is necessary that plate attachment means be provided which will hold each plate securely while affording quick securement and easy rapid removal of the plates.
The holding means shown in FIG. 5, has proven very effective. The holding means, shown generally at 43, comprises a wire clamp 42 comprising a sear or hairpin spring 44 swivel mounted at 44a to the outer wall of the drum 12. One leg 440 of each spring 44 extends through the wall of drum 12 and has a loop 44b formed in the end thereof to prevent withdrawal of the leg 44c and the other leg 44d is held resiliently against the wall of drum 12 by the action of the spring. The set of clamps includes two clamps spaced and arranged such that the leg 44d of each top can be positioned to clamp a corner of a printing plate 21 to the drum. A number of sets of clamps are spaced around the drum so that plates to be processed can be continually placed on the drum and processed plates can be removed as the drum rotates.
A defoaming agent contained within a reservoir 45 is pumped by pump 46, as needed, into tank 24 through lines 46a and into tank 24 to eliminate foam within the tank 24 and the valves in the system.
In operation, the start switch located on junction box 40 is activated thereby activating motor 13, pump motor 27a, air compressor and heater 38c, illuminating heat lamps 34, the water heater unit in the water tank 24 and opening water flow valve 27b. Motor 13, through transmission 15, rotates the drum 12 on the bearings 29. An operator clamps a printing plate 21 on the revolving drum by turning wire clamps 43 to position the ends of legs 44d on the top corners of the plate. The revolving drum 12 carries plate 21 into the chamber 17 where water that has been collected and heated in tank 24 is forced by liquid pump 27 through spray nozzles 20, of each manifold 16, in turn, against the surface of the printing plate. The water sprayed onto the plate 21 dissolves the soluble portions of the emulsion coating thereon, and drains through drains 22 and line 23 back to tank 24. As the plate continues to revolve on the drum, it moves past partition 17!) into drying chamber 32 where the plate 21 on drum 12 is subjected to the high pressure heated air forced through by nozzles 37.-The thermostatic control 40a regulates the temperature of the air as it is passed through air heater 380. The heat lamps 34 further dry the plate 21. The continuously revolving drum 12 then carries plate 21 past brush seal 41 and back into opening 31 where the developed plate 21 can be removed from drum l2, and an undeveloped plate 21 can be installed in place thereof. The entire drum peripheral face can be covered by printing plates and as plates are being removed from and placed on the drum other plates are being processed. Thus a continuous plate processing operation can be performed. Alternatively, a single plate can be processed should this be desired.
Although a preferred form of my invention has been herein disclosed, it is to be understood that the present disclosure is made by way of example and that variations are possible without departing from the scope of the hereinafter claimed subject matter, which subject matter I regard as my invention.
