Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of manual printing of engine labels, and in particular to a device for manually printing labels and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] At present, some engines need to be certified by the certification authority before leaving the factory. After certification, the special logo provided by the certification authority is printed at the specified position on the nameplate. For example, marine engines have CCS commodity inspection certification, etc. After certification, the CCS certification logo needs to be printed on the engine nameplate. The certification logo requires clear and recognizable printing effect without ghosting. Currently, the certification logo is printed on the nameplate manually, and the person holds the steel logo and hits it with a hammer. This method of manually holding the steel logo code will cause a lot of waste due to the reasons such as the easy deformation and displacement of the nameplate, uneven hitting force, and offset of the hitting position. The printing effect is not ideal and the consistency is poor. In addition, the risk factor is relatively high. It is easy to hurt people during the hitting process, and skilled old employees are required to operate. This method of manually printing the nameplate has low efficiency, high scrap rate, high cost, and poor consistency.

[0003] The original method was inefficient, with high scrap rate, high cost, poor consistency, and difficult operation, especially the difficulty in fixing the position of the label and the steel code, which resulted in a high rate of unqualified labels. In addition, due to poor consistency and poor printing effect, customers complained a lot, which directly affected the customer's labeling operation in serious cases.

[0033] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific implementations and with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be emphasized that the following description is merely exemplary and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention and its application.

[0034] Non-limiting and non-exclusive embodiments will be described with reference to the following figures, wherein like reference numerals refer to like parts unless otherwise specifically stated.

[0035] like Figure 1-7 A device for manually punching a sign is shown, comprising a base 1, a steel code 4, a fixed plate 3, and a steel code bracket 2. The base 1 is a square iron block, and its upper surface is used as a working plane. The fixed plate 3 is welded to the front edge of the base 1, and the fixed plate 3 is perpendicular to the base 1 and extends along both sides of the edge of the front end of the base 1. The steel code bracket 2 is U-shaped, and its two ends are fixed to the base by bolts 8 respectively. The steel code bracket 2 is also provided with a vertical downward guide hole 21, and the steel code 4 is slidably arranged in the guide hole 21 in a clearance fit manner. The steel code bracket 2 and the fixed plate 3 form a accommodating space on the working plane of the base 1 to limit the sign, wherein the fixed plate 3 limits the front end of the sign, and the two sides of the steel code bracket 2 limit the left and right sides of the sign. When coding the sign, place the sign flat on the working plane of the base 1 and push it under the steel code bracket 2, so that the front end of the sign abuts against the fixed plate 3, thereby cooperating with the steel code bracket 2 to form a limit for the sign in three directions; then place the prepared steel code 4 into the guide hole 21, and use a handheld hammer to knock the upper end of the steel code 4, so that the steel code 4 impacts the sign to complete the coding of the sign. In this embodiment, the steel code bracket 2 and the fixed plate 3 are used to position and fix the sign, and then the guide hole 21 of the steel code bracket 2 is used to guide the steel code 4, so that the coded sign has high consistency, uniform position and neatness, completely eliminating the scrapping of the sign due to coding, and reducing production costs. The present application has a simple structure and is easy to operate, so even a novice can quickly and efficiently complete the coding of the sign.

[0036] In the above technical solution, the steel code 4 is slidably connected with the guide hole 21, and the lower end of the steel code 4 is in contact with the working plane of the base 1 in a normal state. Since the steel code 4 is made of steel or iron and has a certain weight, the code print at the lower end of the steel code 4 often collides with the base 1, which is easy to damage the code print of the steel code 4 and reduce the service life of the steel code 4. So far, a spring 7 is set on the steel code bracket 2, and the elastic force of the spring 7 is used to act on the steel code 4, so that the steel code 4 is lifted by the spring 7 in a normal state, and there is a gap between the lower end of the steel code 4 and the base 1, which effectively prevents the code print of the steel code 4 from colliding with the base 1 too much. Specifically, a spring 7 is sleeved on the upper part of the steel code 4, and a circumferential limit surface 41 is set at the upper end of the steel code 4 to cooperate with the spring 7. During installation, the steel code 4 is inserted into the guide hole 21, and the steel code 4 slides down under the action of its own gravity. After the spring 7 is assembled, the lower end of the spring 7 abuts against the steel code bracket 2, and the upper end abuts against the limit surface 41 of the steel code 4, thereby supporting the steel code 4 and keeping it suspended, ensuring that the distance between the steel code 4 and the base 1 is greater than the thickness of the sign. In this embodiment, after the operator strikes the steel code 4 with a hammer, the steel code 4 can be quickly separated from the base 1 under the elastic force of the spring 7 and return to the position before the strike. At the same time, since the steel code 4 is separated from the base 1 under normal conditions, the operator can directly push the sign under the steel code bracket 2 without having to lift the steel code 4 separately, which simplifies the operating process and improves work efficiency.

[0037] In the above technical scheme, the steel code 4 may be hit off-center when struck with a hammer, and the operator needs to concentrate highly when striking, which may easily cause mental fatigue of the operator. For this reason, a sliding hammer mechanism is designed to replace the hammer to strike the steel code 4. Specifically, the sliding hammer mechanism includes a stand 5, a guide rod 51, a sliding hammer 6, and a limiter (52, 53). The stand 5 is fixed to the workbench by bolts, and the guide rod 51 is welded and fixed to the upper part of the stand 5 and vertically downward. The sliding hammer 6 is provided with a hollow through hole, and is slidably assembled on the guide rod 51. The limiter (52, 53) is installed on the stand 5 to limit the position of the sliding hammer 6 under normal conditions. Move the base 1 so that the steel code 4 is just below the guide rod 51, and adjust the distance between the steel code 4 and the guide rod 51 to between 1 / 3 and 1 / 2 of the length of the sliding hammer 6. In this embodiment, a sliding hammer 6 is used to replace an iron hammer to strike the steel code 4. When striking the steel code 4, the operator holds the sliding hammer 6 by hand and drags the sliding hammer 6 downward to strike the steel code 4, thereby achieving the printing of the code on the sign. The sliding hammer 6 uses the guide rod 51 as a sliding stroke, and generates a large motion potential energy before striking the steel code 4, thereby increasing the instantaneous impact force of the sliding hammer 6 striking the steel code, and the whole process is accurate and efficient.

[0038] In further technical solutions, refer to Figure 1-1The above-mentioned stopper is a magnet 53, and a ring groove is provided on the upper part of the stand 5, and the ring groove surrounds the guide rod 51 in the middle. Under normal conditions, the sliding hammer 6 is moved upward, and the sliding hammer 6 is adsorbed on the upper part of the stand 5 by the magnet 53; when in use, the sliding hammer 6 is dragged downward by hand to hit the steel code 4, and then the sliding hammer 6 is moved to the upper part of the stand 5 and adsorbed by the magnet 53.

[0039] In addition, refer to Figure 1 The above-mentioned limiting member can also be a second spring 52, the upper end of which is hinged to the upper part of the stand 5, and the lower end is hinged to the upper end surface of the sliding hammer 6. Under normal conditions, the sliding hammer 6 moves downward along the guide rod 51 under the action of its own gravity. After it drops to a certain extent, the sliding hammer 6 stops moving downward due to the pulling force of the second spring 52. At this time, the sliding hammer 6 is 1 to 3 cm away from the lower end of the guide rod 51. When using it, first drag the sliding hammer 6 upward by hand, and then drag the sliding hammer 6 downward to hit the steel code 4. When dragging the sliding hammer 6 upward, the elastic restoring effect of the second spring 52 can save effort; when dragging the sliding hammer 6 downward, the gravity of the sliding hammer 6 can offset part of the pulling force of the second spring 52.

[0040] In the above technical solution, in order to facilitate the gripping of the sliding hammer 6 and reduce the shock of the impact, a soft rubber sleeve is sleeved on the outer side of the sliding hammer 6, and the soft rubber sleeve is provided with anti-slip patterns.

[0041] A method for using a manual labeling device comprises the following steps:

[0042] First, select the steel code bracket 2 and steel code 4 that match the size of the nameplate; then, push the nameplate underneath the steel code bracket 2 along the inside of both sides, and after the front end of the nameplate abuts against the fixed plate 3, the nameplate is in place; use a heavy object to knock on the steel code 4 to print the code of the steel code 4 on the nameplate; take out the nameplate and put in a new nameplate for printing.

[0043] In the above steps, the heavy object can be a hammer to hit the steel code 4 printing label, or a sliding hammer mechanism can be used to hit the steel code 4 printing label.

[0044] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that numerous variations to the above description are possible, and that the examples and figures are intended only to describe one or more specific implementations.
