[0039] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "vertical direction", "up", "down", "horizontal", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, "first", "second", "third", and "fourth" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0041] In the description of the present invention, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set", "install", "connect", and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection, it can be a mechanical connection, it can be an electrical connection, it can be a direct connection, it can be connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the cotton swab box labeling line of the present invention includes a plurality of parallel labeling processing lines 10; the feeding end of the labeling processing line 10 is provided with a feeding track 20 connected thereto, and the discharging end of the labeling processing line 10 is provided with a discharging track 30 connected thereto. The labeling processing line 10 includes a conveying track 11, a scanning mechanism 12 arranged at one side of the conveying track 11, and a labeling mechanism 13 arranged at one side of the conveying track 11; the scanning mechanism 12 and the labeling mechanism 13 are arranged in parallel.

[0043] like Figure 8 As shown, this is the product targeted by the cotton swab box labeling line of the present invention. After multiple cotton swab boxes 50 are oriented in the same direction and packaged with heat shrink film, the old label 60 of one of the cotton swab boxes 50 will be exposed; at this time, a new label 70 of the all-in-one cotton swab box 50 set needs to be affixed, and the new label 70 is required to cover the old label 60.

[0044] When using the above-mentioned cotton swab box labeling line, the cotton swab box 50 set after heat shrink packaging enters the labeling processing line 10 through the feeding track 20. Enter the scanning mechanism 12 to scan whether there is an old label 60; if the old label 60 is scanned, it enters the labeling mechanism 13 to attach the new label 70 to the old label 60 to cover the old label 60; finally, the product is discharged through the discharging track 30. On the contrary, when the old label 60 is not scanned, the scanning mechanism 12 reports an error, and the operator takes out the product. The cotton swab box labeling line of the present invention is provided with a plurality of parallel labeling processing lines 10, which can perform scanning and labeling at the same time without affecting each other, thereby improving the labeling efficiency.

[0045] See also Figure 1 and Figure 7 A material guide mechanism 40 is provided at the connection between the conveying track 11 and the feeding track 20.

On the one hand, it can adjust the feeding speed of the product entering the labeling processing line 10, and on the other hand, it can control the product to enter different labeling processing lines 10 uniformly, so as to ensure that the labeling of multiple products is carried out synchronously. Specifically, the material guide mechanism 40 includes a control motor 41 and a baffle 42. The control motor 41 drives the baffle 42 to rotate in a directional manner, thereby blocking or releasing the product.

[0046] See also Figure 2 The conveying track 11 is tilted upward toward one side of the labeling mechanism 13. When the product passes through the conveying track 11, the old label 60 of the product is tilted upward, which is convenient for scanning and detection by the scanning mechanism 12 and labeling by the labeling mechanism 13.

[0047] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3The scanning mechanism 12 includes a scanning camera 121 disposed on one side of the conveying track 11, and a controller 122 electrically connected to the scanning camera 121; the scanning camera 121 is a CCD camera, which takes pictures of the labels, converts them into electrical signals, and transmits them to the controller 122 for comparison, so as to analyze whether there is an old label 60 at the labeling position. In addition, a light shielding hood 123 is provided on the outer cover of the scanning camera 121, and the area of ​​the conveying track 11 that the scanning camera 121 is aimed at is also covered by the light shielding hood 123; since the outer side of the cotton swab box 50 set has a heat shrink film, it is easy to reflect light, thereby affecting the scanning detection accuracy, so the light shielding hood 123 is provided to isolate the ambient light, thereby improving the scanning detection accuracy.

[0048] See also Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 The labeling mechanism 13 includes an adjusting component 14, a lifting component 15 connected to the upper end of the adjusting component 14, and a labeling component 16 connected to the lifting component 15.
