Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of socks, and in particular to the technical field of label attaching machines. Background Technology

[0002] Before socks are packaged and sold, a paper card with a label is usually sewn on. In the past, the traditional method was to sew it on by hand. Hand sewing is inefficient and the label is easy to fall off. Therefore, it is important to find a sock label attaching machine that can improve productivity and get rid of dependence on hand sewing.

[0003] Existing patent CN219172910U discloses a card folding and label attaching machine that can continuously replenish cards. It can automatically complete the two operations of folding cards and attaching labels, but it cannot attach hooks to paper cards because sock label cards have a flat hook or other sock hook attached to them. Therefore, such a device is not suitable for socks. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the existing technology and propose an automatic label attaching machine for socks with flat hooks. It can automatically transfer paper cards, automatically attach flat hooks to paper cards, automatically bend paper cards to wrap around socks, and automatically sew paper cards and socks together. The socks can be automatically fed and unfed, which improves production efficiency and reduces labor intensity.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes an automatic sock label attaching machine with flat hooks, comprising a frame, a card feeding mechanism, a card picking mechanism, a card transferring robot, a hook attaching mechanism, a sock feeding conveyor belt, a first sock transferring robot, a card folding mechanism, a second sock transferring robot, a sewing device, a third sock transferring robot, and a sock output conveyor belt.

The flat hook plate 10 has a clearance opening that corresponds to the slot. The inner side of the frame has a protrusion that supports the bottom paper card. The paper card taking mechanism is a robotic arm with a vacuum suction cup that moves up and down. The paper card taking mechanism is located directly below the paper card placement mechanism.

[0024] The paper transfer robot 11 is a horizontally moving robot with two sets of vacuum suction cups.

[0025] Example 3:

[0026] See Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5The flat hook mechanism 3 consists of a feeding mechanism 30, a first linear slide 31, a second linear slide 32, a first servo motor 33, and an automatic gripper 34.

[0031] The working process of this utility model:

[0032] In the operation of this utility model of an automatic sock label attaching machine with flat hooks, paper cards are stacked and placed in the paper card feeding mechanism 2. The paper card picking mechanism picks up the bottom paper card and moves it downwards. After the movement is completed, the paper card moving robot 11 moves horizontally. One set of vacuum suction cups of the paper card moving robot 11 picks up the paper card held by the paper card feeding mechanism. The paper card feeding mechanism releases the paper card, and the paper card moving robot 11 moves the paper card to the flat hook plate 10. The flat hook fitting mechanism 3 fits the flat hook into the slot of the paper card. Then, the paper card moving robot 11 releases the paper card and moves horizontally. The other set of vacuum suction cups picks up the paper card with the flat hook. The original set of vacuum suction cups picks up a new paper card that has been removed by the paper card taking mechanism. The paper card transfer robot 11 moves horizontally, and the paper card with the flat hook is moved to the paper card folding mechanism 4. The first sock transfer robot 12 moves the sock at the end of the sock conveyor belt 15 to the paper card located at the paper card folding mechanism 4. The paper card folding mechanism 4 bends the paper card so that the paper card is wrapped around the sock. The second sock transfer robot 13 clamps the sock and the paper card wrapped around the sock together and moves them to the sewing device 5. The sewing device 5 sews the paper card and the sock together. The third sock transfer robot 14 clamps the sewn sock and the sock together and moves them to the sock exit conveyor belt 16.

[0033] The hook-fitting process of the hook-fitting mechanism 3 is as follows: The feeding mechanism 30 delivers a hook 6 with the hook facing upwards to the discharge port of the feeding mechanism 30. The automatic clamping claw 34 is initially in the open state and located directly above the discharge port of the feeding mechanism 30. The second linear slide 32 drives the first servo motor 33 and the automatic clamping claw 34 connected to the first servo motor 33 to move downwards until the hook of the hook 6 extends into the clamping port. The automatic clamping claw 34 clamps the hook of the hook 6. Then, the second linear slide 32 drives the first servo motor 33 and the automatic clamping claw 34 connected to the first servo motor 33 to move upwards. When the hook 6 is completely separated from the feeding mechanism 30, the first servo motor 33 drives the automatic clamping claw 34 to rotate 180°, and the second linear slide 32 drives the first servo motor 33 to continue moving upwards. The first linear slide 31 drives the second linear slide 32 to move horizontally towards the flat hook plate 10. These three actions are performed simultaneously. After the servo motor 33 drives the automatic clamping claw 34 to rotate 180°, these three actions stop simultaneously. At this time, the flat hook 6 is just placed on the slot 70 of the paper card 7. Then, the first linear slide 31 drives the second linear slide 32 to move in the opposite direction a short distance, so that both sides of the flat hook are locked with the slot. Then, the automatic clamping claw 34 releases the flat hook 6. Then, under the combined action of the first linear slide 31, the second linear slide 32 and the first servo motor 33, the automatic clamping claw 34 returns to the initial position. During the process from when the automatic clamping claw 34 clamps the flat hook 6 to when the automatic clamping claw 34 resets, the feeding mechanism 30 sends a new flat hook 6 to the discharge port of the feeding mechanism 30 with the hook facing upward.

[0034] The above embodiments are illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any simple modifications to the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
