[0002] The express delivery labeling machine is used in the field of e-commerce delivery. Users can scan the barcode on the product, that is, the SKU code. After scanning, the software will automatically find the relevant information of the purchaser of the product. After the product is packaged by the packaging machine, the object will be transported to the labeling station by the conveyor line. The printing and labeling machine will paste the label with the purchaser's information printed on it onto the product, completing the process of packaging and express delivery labeling.
[0003] The printers used in the current express delivery labeling machines are print engines and commercial printers. Such printers are expensive, and the replacement price of the print head after it reaches the end of its printing life is also expensive, resulting in high cost of use and other problems. The print engine has data control and can store unprinted information. After the printed label is pasted and the label adsorption device returns to its position, it starts to print the corresponding stored label. The print engine uses memory to store the number of unprinted labels during operation. Due to software operation and other reasons, it is easy to cause confusion in the printing order, resulting in errors and omissions in the entire production. For this reason, we propose an express delivery labeling machine. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0022] Example 1
[0023] like Figure 2-4 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: an express delivery label printing and pasting machine, comprising a label pasting mechanism, a sealing and baling machine 9 and a scanner 10, wherein the label pasting mechanism is arranged at the exit of the sealing and baling machine 9, and the scanner 10 is arranged at the entrance of the sealing and baling machine 9, and the label pasting mechanism mainly comprises a printer 1, a face sheet buffer conveyor line 2, a face sheet 3, a label detection electric eye 4, a non-stick plate 5, a manipulator 6, an adsorption plate 7 and a conveying belt 8, wherein the printer 1 is arranged at one end of the face sheet buffer conveyor line 2, and the face sheet buffer conveyor line 2 is arranged on one side of the conveying belt 8, and a manipulator 6 is installed on the conveying belt 8, and an adsorption plate 7 for adsorbing the face sheet 3 is installed at the bottom end of the manipulator 6, and a non-stick plate 5 is arranged on the face sheet buffer conveyor line 2, and the face sheet 3 is placed on the non-stick plate 5, and the non-stick plate 5 is provided with multiple groups, and the label detection electric eye 4 is installed at the tail end of the face sheet buffer conveyor line 2, and the label detection electric eye 4 and the printer 1 are controlled by a PLC program.
[0024] Furthermore, the described waybill buffer conveying line 2 is provided with a plurality of groups.
[0025] Furthermore, a gate 14 is provided in front of the scanner 10, and the tag detection electric eye 4 and the gate 14 are controlled by a PLC program.
[0026] Furthermore, the gate 14 includes a vacuum suction cup 11, a frame 15, a baffle plate 16 and a push rod 17. One side of the frame 15 is open, and a baffle plate 16 is slidably installed in the frame 15. A push rod 17 is arranged between one side of the baffle plate 16 and the inner wall of the frame 15. There are multiple groups of push rods 17. The push rods 17 and the label detection electric eyes 4 are controlled by a PLC program. There are multiple groups of vacuum suction cups 11, and the vacuum suction cups 11 are installed at the bottom end of the frame 15.
[0027] It should be noted that, in an express delivery label printing and pasting machine, after the user manually scans the product SKU code, the printer 1 prints out a face sheet 3 through the software after receiving the printing instruction. During the time period of printing the face sheet 3, the printed face sheet 3 moves through the cache conveyor belt of the face sheet cache conveyor line 2, and this face sheet 3 is temporarily stored on the conveyor belt 8. If multiple face sheets 3 need to be temporarily stored, multiple sections of conveyor belts are made for corresponding conveying and temporary storage. The adsorption plate 7 on the robot 6 is used to adsorb and grab the face sheet 3, and the face sheet 3 is pasted on the corresponding packaged product. If the label measuring electric eye 4 detects that the corresponding face sheet 3 has not been adsorbed and grabbed, the gate 14 is started, and the push rod 17 in the gate 14 starts to work, pushing the baffle 16 in the frame 15 to move forward, so that the baffle 16 blocks the scanner 10. At this time, the product cannot be scanned manually, and the printer 1 will not continue to print. The face sheet 3 will not be confused by the face sheet cache conveyor line 2 due to continuous printing. By adopting an economical ordinary printer 1 to replace the expensive printing engine, the cost of consumables is low and the maintenance is simpler and easier. An ordinary printer is used in combination with the face sheet cache conveyor line 2 to form an intuitive and obvious cache conveyor line to mechanically store the printed related labels, which will not cause production errors and omissions. The traditional printing engine is easily confused in the operation process due to software operation and other reasons, causing errors and omissions in the entire production. Furthermore, multiple groups of face sheet cache conveyor lines 2 can be set according to needs, and multiple non-stick plates 5 can be set on the face sheet cache conveyor line 2, and the printed face sheet 3 is placed on the non-stick plate 5. Multiple face sheets 3 can be temporarily stored using a multi-segment face sheet cache conveyor line 2. The printer 1 adopts the HLP106S-PBU model product.
[0028] Example 2
[0029] like Figure 1-3As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: an express delivery label printing and pasting machine, comprising a label pasting mechanism, a sealing and baling machine 9 and a scanner 10, wherein the label pasting mechanism is arranged at the exit of the sealing and baling machine 9, and the scanner 10 is arranged at the entrance of the sealing and baling machine 9, and the label pasting mechanism mainly comprises a printer 1, a face sheet buffer conveyor line 2, a face sheet 3, a label detection electric eye 4, a non-stick plate 5, a manipulator 6, an adsorption plate 7 and a conveying belt 8, wherein the printer 1 is arranged at one end of the face sheet buffer conveyor line 2, and the face sheet buffer conveyor line 2 is arranged on one side of the conveying belt 8, and a manipulator 6 is installed on the conveying belt 8, and an adsorption plate 7 for adsorbing the face sheet 3 is installed at the bottom end of the manipulator 6, and a non-stick plate 5 is arranged on the face sheet buffer conveyor line 2, and the face sheet 3 is placed on the non-stick plate 5, and the non-stick plate 5 is provided with multiple groups, and the label detection electric eye 4 is installed at the tail end of the face sheet buffer conveyor line 2, and the label detection electric eye 4 and the printer 1 are controlled by a PLC program.
[0030] Furthermore, the described waybill buffer conveying line 2 is provided with a plurality of groups.
[0031] Furthermore, it also includes an article conveying line 12 and a scanning conveying line 13, the article conveying line 12 is arranged at one end of the scanning conveying line 13, the scanning conveying line 13 is arranged at the entrance of the sealing and packaging machine 9, and the scanner 10 is installed on one side of the scanning conveying line 13.
[0032] Furthermore, the switch of the tag detection electric eye 4 and the article conveying line 12 is controlled by a PLC program.
[0033] It should be noted that, in an express delivery label printing and pasting machine, when it is working, the user puts the product into the item conveying line 12, and the item on the item conveying line 12 enters the corresponding scanning area of the scanning conveying line 13. The scanner 10 on one side of the scanning conveying line 13 will scan the SKU code on the item. After the online scanning, the printer 1 prints out a face sheet 3 after receiving the printing instruction through the software. During the time period of printing the face sheet 3, the printed face sheet 3 passes through the movement of the face sheet cache conveying line 2, and this face sheet 3 is temporarily stored in the face sheet cache conveying skin line. If multiple face sheets 3 need to be temporarily stored, multiple sections of face sheet cache conveying lines 2 are made to transport and temporarily store the corresponding face sheets 3, and the adsorption plate 7 on the robot 6 is used to adsorb and grab the face sheet 3, and the face sheet 3 is pasted on the corresponding packaged product. If the label measuring electric eye 4 detects that the corresponding face sheet 3 has not been adsorbed and grabbed, the item conveying line 12 is stopped, and the item conveying line 12 does not transport the item, and the scanning conveying line 13 cannot transport the object. When the SKU code of the next item is input to the scanning area, the printer 1 will not continue to print the face sheet 3, so that the face sheet cache conveyor line 2 will not be confused due to continuous printing. By adopting an economical and ordinary printer 1 to replace the expensive printing engine, the cost of consumables is low and maintenance is simpler and easier. An ordinary printer is used in combination with the face sheet cache conveyor line 2 to form an intuitive and obvious cache conveyor line to mechanically store the printed related labels, which will not cause production errors and omissions. The traditional printing engine is changed during operation, which is prone to confusion in the printing order due to software operation and other reasons, causing errors and omissions in the entire production. Furthermore, multiple groups of face sheet cache conveyor lines 2 can be set according to needs, and multiple non-stick plates 5 can be set on the face sheet cache conveyor line 2, and the printed face sheet 3 is placed on the non-stick plate 5. A multi-segment face sheet cache conveyor line 2 can be used to temporarily store multiple face sheets 3. The printer 1 adopts the HLP106S-PBU model product.
