Abstract

The present invention provides a screen assembly, a screen printing system and a screen printing method, belonging to the field of screen printing technology, by means of which the problem of prior art that the printed pattern has unsmooth lines caused by deformation of a thin film screen after a plurality of times of printing can be solved. The screen assembly of the present invention comprises a thin film screen and a fixed screen both having a same pattern. When a packaging cover plate is printed, the thin film screen is arranged above the fixed screen, and the fixed screen is arranged on the packaging cover plate, so that the printing material passes through the thin film screen and the fixed screen successively to be printed onto the packaging cover plate. The screen assembly of the present invention is particularly applicable to the printing process of glass material.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A screen printing system, comprising a screen assembly, which comprises a thin film screen and a fixed screen both having a same pattern; wherein
the fixed screen is made of one of glass and polyvinyl chloride; and
when a packaging cover plate is printed, the thin film screen is arranged above the fixed screen, and the fixed screen is arranged on the packaging cover plate, so that printing material passes through the thin film screen and the fixed screen successively to be printed onto the packaging cover plate,
wherein the screen printing system further comprises a bearing base and an alignment device; the bearing base is configured to bear a packaging cover plate onto which a pattern is to be printed, and the fixed screen is arranged on the packaging cover plate; and the alignment device is configured to align the packaging cover plate, the fixed screen and the thin film screen,
wherein the alignment device comprises a reference glass plate, an image acquisition module and a position adjustment module;
the reference glass plate is configured to record a pattern on the thin film screen;
the image acquisition module is configured to acquire a pattern of the thin film screen recorded on the reference glass plate and images of the fixed screen and the packaging cover plate, in order to acquire position information of the pattern recorded on the reference glass plate and the position information of the fixed screen and the packaging cover plate and to transmit the position information to the position adjustment module; and
the position adjustment module is configured to align the packaging cover plate, the fixed screen and the thin film screen according to the position information transmitted by the image acquisition module.

2. The screen printing system according to claim 1 , wherein the image acquisition module includes a camera.

3. The screen printing system according to claim 2 , wherein a non-stick coating is formed on surface of the fixed screen.

4. The screen printing system according to claim 1 , wherein a non-stick coating is formed on surface of the fixed screen.

5. A screen printing method, comprising:
placing a thin film screen above a reference glass plate, printing a pattern on the thin film screen onto the reference glass plate, and recording position information of the pattern printed on the reference glass plate; and
placing a fixed screen on a packaging cover plate, and aligning the thin film screen, the fixed screen and the packaging cover plate according to the recorded position information of the pattern printed on the reference glass plate; wherein
the fixed screen is made of one of glass and polyvinyl chloride,
wherein aligning the thin film screen, the fixed screen and the packaging cover plate further comprises:
aligning the fixed screen with the thin film screen according to the recorded position information of the pattern printed on the reference glass plate; and
aligning the packaging cover plate with the thin film screen and the fixed screen according to the recorded position information of the pattern printed on the reference glass plate.

6. The screen printing method according to claim 5 , wherein after aligning the thin film screen, the fixed screen and the packaging cover plate, the method further comprises:
printing the printing material onto the packaging cover plate through the thin film screen and the fixed screen.

7. The screen printing method according to claim 6 , wherein the printing material is frit.
