Description

一种多喷头并行维护装置与维护方法
本申请要求于2017年11月17日提交中国专利局，申请号为2017111478097，发明名称为“一种多喷头并行维护装置与维护方法”的中国专利申请的优先权，其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及喷墨打印领域，尤其涉及一种多喷头并行维护装置与维护方法。
 背景技术
现有的喷墨打印机一般会将喷头所在的空间区域划分为打印区域和清洗区域，顾名思义，打印区域就是喷头处于打印状态时所占据的区域，清洗区域是喷头处于非打印状态时所占据的区域。在喷头工作持续一段时间以后，通常会因为在喷头表面淤积或受光线干扰发生固化等因素，发生墨水严重堵塞喷头的喷嘴的情况，进而导致喷头无法正常工作，因此，需要定期对喷头进行维护。通常，根据压电陶瓷喷头厂家的建议，喷头的维护分两步，第一步是刮墨，即刮掉喷头表面的淤积墨水，第二步是清洗或保湿，即通过海绵等较软的物品，蘸满喷头清洗液，对喷头表面进行擦拭或涂抹，从而将喷头表面的废墨彻底清除干净。但是，现有技术中的维护装置通常只能对一个喷头进行清洗，且具有结构不够紧凑且较复杂、运动部件的行程较长、对喷头的维护时间长、耗电、体积大等缺点。

在完成刮墨之后，进入喷头201的清洗阶段时，所述喷头机构20在所述第一驱动机构的驱动下，沿直角坐标系的X轴移动至所述清洗机构40的海绵体401上方，再沿直角坐标系的Z轴向下移动，直至所述喷头201挤压所述海绵体401时对所述喷头201进行涂抹与擦洗，使得喷头201表面与海绵体401接触，完成喷头表面清洗液的涂抹。同时，通过注排液机构404为所述海绵体401注入与回收清洗液。本申请可以同时对多个喷头进行并行维护，维护效率高；且其安装与拆卸简易、结构紧凑、占用空间较小、内部部件运动的行程短、耗电少，同时还能够对海绵体自动加注与排放清洗液。

在一些实施例中，如图1及图3所示，所述刮板支撑架303上设有多个所述刮板301，多个所述刮板301的数量与所述喷头201的数量一致，且多个所述刮板301与多个所述喷头201位置对应地排布在所述刮板支撑架303上。也即，刮板301的具体安装位置根据喷头201的安装位置而定，保证每个刮板301分别正对着喷头201且能同时开始和完成刮墨动作，刮板301与喷头201的相对角度可以调节，以便达到较高的刮墨效率。
在一些实施例中，如图1及图4所示，所述清洗机构40还包括海绵支撑板402、安装在所述海绵支撑板402上的海绵安装盒403，所述海绵支撑板402安装于所述支架10上，所述海绵体401放置于所述海绵安装盒403中。如图4所示，所述海绵安装盒403为多个，且多个所述海绵安装盒403的数量与所述喷头201的数量一致，且多所述海绵安装盒403与多个所述喷头201位置对应地排布在所述海绵支撑板402上。也即，海绵支撑板402上的多个所述海绵安装盒403是依据喷头201的组装方式进行安装，保证每个海绵体401都分别正对着喷头201。
在一些实施例中，如图5及图6所示，图5为本申请根据一示例性实施例示出的一种多喷头并行维护装置的海绵安装盒的结构示意图。图6为图5示出的一种多喷头并行维护装置的海绵安装盒的A-A截面的结构示意图。所述海绵安装盒403包括顶盖4031、固定盒4032、设置于所述固定盒4032底部的废液收集盒4033，所述固定盒4032的顶部与所述顶盖4031连接，所述海绵体401放置于所述固定盒4032中，且所述海绵体401的顶部抵接于所述顶盖4031的底部；所述固定盒4032的底部设有回收口4034，所述固定盒4032通过所述回收口4034与所述废液收集盒4033相通；所述废液收集盒4033和所述固定盒4032均与所述注排液机构404相通。
在一些实施例中，如图1、图5及图6所示，所述注排液机构404包括泵阀机构4041、连接于所述泵阀机构4041的注液软管4042、存储清洗液且连接于所述泵阀机构4041的存储容器4043、连接于所述泵阀机构4041的排液软管4044；设置于所述注液软管4042一端的注液接头4045与所述固定盒4032相通，设置于所述排液软管4044一端的排液接头与所述废液收集盒4033的底部相通。
在一些实施例中，如图5及图6所示，所述海绵安装盒403还包括设置于所述废液收集盒4033顶部的侧板4035，所述侧板4035的内侧壁、所述固定盒4032的外侧壁和所述废液收集盒4033的顶部之间形成容纳空间4036，所述注液接头4045设置于所述侧板4035上，且所述注液接头4045注入的清洗液进入所述容纳空间4036中；所述容纳空间4036与所述固定盒4032相通，所述容纳空间4036中的清洗液可以流入所述固定盒4032的海绵体401中。所述侧板4035顶部设有密封垫4037；作为优选，所述侧板4037的顶端设有延伸方向与所述密封垫4037平行的折弯边，所述密封垫4037放置于所述折弯边上，以使所述侧板4035与所述密封垫4037的连接更稳固。当喷头机构20沿Z轴方向向下移动直到喷头表面完全挤压到海绵体401时，清洗机构40中的密封垫4037紧贴在喷头支撑板202的下表面，以防止清洗液挥发，在这个过程中喷头201就会蘸到清洗液并持续处于保湿的状态。所述固定盒4032通过定位销4038安装在所述废液收集盒4033上，可理解的，所述固定盒与所述废液收集盒的连接方式也可以为焊接、卡扣连接、铆接等。
也即，经过刮板301刮墨后的喷头201在蘸海绵时挤出的清洗液流进废液收集盒4033内，当喷头201轻挤海绵并蘸上清洗液的时候，废液收集盒4033四周与喷头支撑板202接触，此时，通过设置于所述侧板4035顶端与所述喷头支撑板202底端的所述密封垫4037的密封，可以起到防止清洗液挥发的作用；经过反复清洗若干次后，喷头201表面被清洗干净。废液收集盒4033中的废清洗液则通过泵阀机构4041的阀门控制的管路将其排出。
当海绵体401上的清洗液耗尽后，通过泵阀机构4041和连接到所述容纳空间4036的注液接头4045，向海绵体401自动加注清洗液，使海绵体401保持在湿润状态。可理解的，在一实施例中，本装置还包括用于检测所述海绵体401是否湿润的检测机构，以便于检测海绵体401上的清洗液耗尽，从而控制向海绵体401自动加注清洗液，使海绵体401保持在湿润状态。同时，泵阀机构4041中的注液泵可以对注入的清洗液的流量进行控制和计算，以保证精确地向海绵固定盒中注液。
根据本申请实施例的另一方面，如图1至图6所示，还提供一种多喷头并行与维护方法，本申请中喷头机构由四个喷头201并列排放安装，具体安装方式视喷头型号和走纸方向而定，本申请中四个喷头201的排列方式如图2所示。所述多喷头并行与维护方法包括以下步骤：
当打印机停止作业且需要进行刮墨时，接收喷头刮墨指令，喷头机构20在第一驱动机构的驱动下，依次沿直角坐标系的X轴与Z轴移动至预设的刮墨位置（首先沿直角坐标系的X轴移动至刮墨机构30的上方，再沿直角坐标系的Z轴移动至预设的刮墨位置），同时，刮墨机构30在第二驱动机构302的驱动下沿直角坐标系的Z轴（向上）移动至所述刮墨位置，直至所述刮墨机构30的刮板301与所述喷头机构20的喷头201表面完全接触；所述喷头机构20在第一驱动机构的驱动下沿直角坐标系的X轴方向移动，以令所述刮板301刮落所述喷头201上的淤积墨水；可理解的，上述刮墨动作可反复多次进行，直至所述喷头201表面的淤积墨水被清理干净为止。且喷头201上的废墨被刮板301刮下后落在废墨收集盒304中，并经排墨口305被直接排出，达到废墨收集与回收的目的。
接收喷头刮墨完毕指令，所述刮墨机构30在第二驱动机构302的驱动下沿直角坐标系的Z轴（向下）移动，直至所述刮墨机构30缩回预设的刮板安装位（所述刮板安装位位于清洗机构40的下方）。
接收喷头清洗指令，所述喷头机构20在所述第一驱动机构的驱动下，沿直角坐标系的X轴移动至所述清洗机构40的海绵体401上方，再沿直角坐标系的Z轴移动，直至所述喷头201挤压所述海绵体401时对所述喷头201进行涂抹与擦洗，同时，通过注排液机构404为所述海绵体401注入与回收清洗液。也即，只要在海绵体401清洗液不足时，所述清洗机构40均会通过注液机构404从注液接头4046往固定盒4032内注满清洗液，在所述喷头201挤压所述海绵体401对所述喷头201进行涂抹与擦洗时，海绵体401已经吸满了清洗液。此时，由于喷头机构20沿Z轴方向向下移动直到喷头表面完全挤压到海绵体401，同时清洗机构40中的密封垫4037紧贴在喷头支撑板202的下表面，以防止清洗液挥发，在这个过程中喷头201就会蘸到清洗液并持续处于保湿的状态。在清洗过程中挤出的清洗液被收集在废液收集盒4033，最后废液收集盒4033中的清洗液将在泵阀机构4041的电磁阀的控制下经过管路被排出。
接收喷头清洗完毕且不再作业指令，所述喷头机构20在所述第一驱动机构的驱动下沿直角坐标系的Z轴移动，直至所述喷头201完全浸入所述海绵体401中，使得喷头201处于保湿状态。
接收喷头清洗完毕且继续作业指令，所述喷头机构20在所述第一驱动机构的驱动下，依次沿直角坐标系的Z轴与X轴移动至作业位置进行打印作业。
本申请可以同时对多个喷头进行并行维护，维护效率高；且其安装与拆卸简易、结构紧凑、占用空间较小、内部部件运动的行程短、耗电少，同时还能够对海绵体401自动加注与排放清洗液，同时实现废墨收集与回收。
