[0026] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0027] The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but they cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. The conditions in the examples can be further adjusted according to specific conditions. Simple improvements to the method of the present invention under the premise of the concept of the present invention belong to the scope of protection claimed in the present invention.

[0028] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the present invention provides a labeling and detection integrated device, the device includes a support body 1, a feeding module 3 installed on the support body 1, a pushing mechanism 4 located at one end of the feeding module 3 for pushing materials to the feeding module 3, a picking mechanism 2 installed on the support body 1 for picking up and placing materials on the pushing mechanism 4, a label printer 5 fixedly installed on one side of the feeding module 3, a picking mechanism 6 installed on one side of the label outlet of the label printer 5 for picking up labels, and a labeling mechanism 7 located between the picking mechanism 6 and the feeding module 3 for moving labels;

[0029] The feeding module 3 includes a support frame 31 fixed on the support body 1 corresponding to one end of the loading platform 1, a conveyor belt 33 installed on the inner side of the support frame 31, a plurality of rollers 32 located inside the conveyor belt 33 and connected to the support frame 31 for driving the conveyor belt 33, and a servo motor 34 fixedly installed at the bottom of one end of the support frame 31, wherein the output shaft of the servo motor 34 is connected to the roller 32 located at one end of the support frame 31 corresponding to the servo motor 34 through a belt 35; an interception mechanism 36 for limiting the movement of materials is fixed on one side of the support frame 31;

[0030] The label taking mechanism 6 comprises a first slide cylinder 61 fixedly mounted on one side of the label outlet of the label printer 5 and a vacuum suction plate 62 mounted on the slide of the first slide cylinder 61;

[0031] The labeling mechanism 7 includes a cross arm 71 fixedly mounted above the label taking mechanism 61 and the conveyor belt 33, a second rotary cylinder 74 slidably mounted on the cross arm 71, a second slide cylinder 75 mounted on the turntable of the second rotary cylinder 74, a labeling plate 76 fixedly mounted on the slide of the second slide cylinder 75, and a second translation mechanism mounted on the cross arm 71 for driving the second rotary cylinder 74 to move;

[0032] A camera connected to an external control terminal for collecting images and detecting the labeling position and content is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the labeling plate 76 .

[0033] When in use, the material is grabbed by the grabbing mechanism 2 and put on the pushing mechanism 4, and the material is pushed onto the conveyor belt 33 by the pushing mechanism 4, and the material is driven by the servo motor 34 to move to the rear of the labeling mechanism 7. When the material reaches the labeling position, the servo motor 34 is turned off, and the material is intercepted and blocked by the intercepting mechanism 36, and the label is printed out by the label printer 5, and the first slide cylinder 61 is controlled to drive the vacuum suction plate 62 to approach the label outlet of the label printer 5, and the vacuum suction plate 62 absorbs the label, and the vacuum suction plate 62 is driven to the bottom of the labeling mechanism 7 by the first slide cylinder 61, and the second rotary cylinder 74 is driven by the second translation mechanism to move the second slide cylinder 75 to the top of the vacuum suction plate 62, and then the second slide cylinder 75 is driven to move to the top of the vacuum suction plate 62. The second slide cylinder 75 drives the labeling plate 76 to absorb the label on the vacuum suction plate 62, controls the second rotating cylinder 75 to turn, drives the second slide cylinder 75 to rotate, so that the labeling plate 76 with the label is parallel to the labeling surface of the material, and controls the slide of the second slide cylinder 75 to extend, thereby driving the labeling plate 76 to approach the material, and the label is attached to the material to complete the labeling work; after the labeling is completed, the servo motor 34 is started, thereby driving the conveyor belt 33 to drive the material to move, and the material is unloaded. When unloading, the camera on the labeling plate 76 takes a picture of the material and transmits the collected image back to the control system, which determines whether the labeling position meets the requirements and identifies the content on the label to enter data.

[0034] It should be noted that the image recognition and comparison technology and data entry technology involved in this solution are all completed using existing technologies and are not protected by this solution.

[0035] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the pushing mechanism 4 includes a loading platform fixedly mounted on the support body 1 , a pushing plate 44 located on the loading platform and moving, and a first translation mechanism fixedly mounted on one side of the loading platform and used to drive the pushing plate 44 .

[0036] When the material is pushed onto the feeding module 3 , the first translation mechanism drives the pushing plate 44 to push the material onto the feeding module 3 .

[0037] More specifically, Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the first translation mechanism includes a mounting plate 41 fixedly mounted on one side of the loading platform, a first slider 43 located on the side of the mounting plate 41 close to the loading platform, and a first rodless cylinder 42 that passes through the first slider 43 and is connected to the mounting plate 41 for driving the first slider 43 to move, and a push plate 44 is fixedly mounted on the side of the first slider 43 away from the mounting plate 41.

[0038] After the material taking mechanism 2 grabs the material onto the loading platform, the first rodless cylinder 42 is controlled to drive the first slider 43 to move on the mounting plate 41, thereby driving the push plate 44 to push the material onto the feeding module 3 to complete the loading work.

[0039] Specifically, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the material picking mechanism 2 includes a fixed plate 21 fixedly installed on the side of the support body 1 corresponding to the first translation mechanism away from the loading platform, a movable plate 22 located on the side of the fixed plate 21 close to the first translation mechanism, a linear cylinder 23 installed on the side of the fixed plate 21 away from the movable plate 22 for driving the movable plate 22 to move, and a suction cup 24 installed on the side of the movable plate 22 away from the fixed plate 21 for sucking materials.

[0040] When in use, the linear cylinder 23 pushes the movable plate 22 close to the discharge port of the carton sealing machine, and the suction cup 24 on the movable plate 22 sucks the material. When the suction cup 24 sucks on the material, the linear cylinder 23 drives the movable plate 22 close to the loading platform, and then drags the material to the loading platform to complete the loading work.

[0041] More specifically, Figure 2 As shown, a guide rod 25 penetrating through the fixed plate 21 is fixedly mounted on the movable plate 22 , and the guide rod 25 is slidably connected to the fixed plate 21 .

[0042] When the movable plate 22 moves, the guide rod 25 moves with the movable plate 22 on the fixed plate 21. The movable plate 22 is guided by the guide rod 25 so that the movable plate 22 keeps moving on the same horizontal line. At the same time, the movable plate 22 can be effectively prevented from rotating in a biased direction, making the material taking work more stable.

[0043] Specifically, Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the interception mechanism 36 includes a first rotating cylinder 361 fixedly mounted on one side of the support frame 31 and an interception plate 362 fixedly mounted on the turntable of the first rotating cylinder 361 .

[0044] When the material moves onto the conveyor belt 33, the first rotating cylinder 361 is controlled to start, driving the intercepting plate 362 to rotate, thereby blocking it above the conveyor belt 33. When the material moves to the point where it contacts the intercepting plate 362, the servo motor 34 is turned off, and the material is blocked on the conveyor belt 33 by the intercepting plate 362, thereby avoiding the stress generated during labeling that causes the material to move, making labeling more stable.

[0045] Further, such as Figure 3 As shown, vertical plates 37 for guiding materials are symmetrically mounted on the upper surface of the support frame 31 .

[0046] By symmetrically arranging two vertical plates 37 on the support frame 31, the two vertical plates 37 are symmetrically located on both sides of the conveyor belt 33, and cooperate with the conveyor belt 33 to form a trough structure. When the material moves, the vertical plates 37 guide the material to avoid material deviation.

[0047] Specifically, Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the second translation mechanism can include a second slider 73 that slides on the lower surface of the cross arm 71 and a second rodless cylinder 72 that runs through the second slider 73 and is used to drive the second slider 73 to move. The second slider 73 is fixedly connected to the second slide cylinder 75.

[0048] The second translation mechanism has the same principle as the first translation mechanism. The second rodless cylinder 72 drives the second slider 73 to move, and then drives the second rotary cylinder 75 to move horizontally on the cross arm 71, so that the labeling mechanism 7 completes the labeling and labeling work.

[0049] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
