The nozzle utilizes the ultra-thin and ultra-light characteristics of the blister box 90 so that the blowing nozzle can quickly blow out the unqualified blister boxes 90 in the second channel 71 directly from the notch 711 in a very short time, with high efficiency, so as not to affect the normal transportation of the subsequent blister boxes 90, so as to ensure the operation efficiency of the entire labeling machine. When the blowing direction of the blowing nozzle is perpendicular to the transportation direction of the second channel 71, the efficiency is better. In addition, the first blowing pipe adopts a bamboo-joint air pipe, and the bamboo-joint air pipe can freely adjust the position and angle of the blowing nozzle, so as to achieve the best effect of removing unqualified products.

[0057] It should be noted that the removal member 52 can also be an impeller (not shown), which is transmission-connected to a fourth motor (not shown). The axis of the impeller is parallel to the conveying direction of the second channel 71, and a plurality of blades (not shown) are distributed in a ring around the circumference of the impeller. The fourth motor can be a servo motor. When working, the fourth motor drives the impeller to rotate a certain angle, so that the impeller drives the blades to rotate a certain angle, and the blades push the unqualified blister box 90 with labeling out of the notch 711 of the second channel 71.

[0058] The material-prying assembly 65 is provided with a connecting rod 653 and a swing arm 654, the connecting rod 653 is rotatably connected to the rotating frame 63, the material-prying piece 652 is installed on the connecting rod 653, the bottom of the arc-shaped channel 61 has a first avoidance groove 611 for the movement of the material-prying piece 652, one end of the swing arm 654 is connected to one end of the connecting rod 653 close to the guide member 64, and the other end of the swing arm 654 is rotatably connected to the guide wheel 651. Specifically, two material-prying pieces 652 are arranged side by side on each of the material-prying assemblies 65.

[0059] The rotating frame 63 has two disks 631 arranged opposite to each other. The two disks 631 are connected. Both ends of the connecting rod 653 are rotatably connected to the corresponding disks 631 respectively. The second motor 62 drives the two disks 631 to rotate synchronously.

A second blowing pipe 73 is provided on the side of the first linear guide groove 66 close to the incoming direction of the blister box 90. The second blowing pipe 73 is connected to a second air source. The second blowing pipe 73 is located above the second channel 71. The second blowing pipe 73 can blow the blister box 90 output from the second channel 71 into the first linear guide groove 66. Specifically, there are two second blowing pipes 73, and the second blowing pipe 73 is a second bamboo air pipe. By providing the second blowing pipe 73, the blister box 90 output from the second channel 71 is blown into the first linear guide groove 66 by the blowing pipe, so that the blister box 90 can be quickly transferred from the second channel 71 to the first linear guide groove 66, thereby improving the conveying efficiency of the blister box 90.

[0061] The output end of the arc channel 61 is connected to a second linear guide groove 67, the bottom of which extends obliquely downward from front to back, and the bottom of the second linear guide groove 67 has a third avoidance groove (not shown) for the movement of the material-shifting piece 652, and the angle between the bottom of the second linear guide groove 67 and the horizontal plane is ≤5 degrees; by setting the bottom of the second linear guide groove 67 to extend obliquely upward along the conveying direction of the blister box 90, when the material-shifting piece 652 pushes the blister box 90 to the second linear guide groove 67, the blister box 90 has a tendency to tilt and slide backward, so that the previous blister box 90 and the subsequent blister box 90 can be better stacked together, and the stacking effect is better. When the angle between the bottom of the second linear guide groove 67 and the horizontal plane is ≤5 degrees, it is beneficial for the material-shifting piece 652 to shift the stacked blister boxes 90 to creep forward, thereby freeing up stacking space for subsequent blister boxes 90.

[0062] A platform 80 is provided at the output end of the second linear guide groove 67, and a material moving component 68 is provided on one side of the platform 80. The material moving component 68 can intermittently push the blister boxes 90 stacked in the second linear guide groove 67 forward to the platform 80, and support the subsequent blister boxes 90 in the second linear guide groove 67 to prevent the blister boxes 90 from tipping forward; by setting the platform 80 and the material moving component 68, when moving materials, the material moving component 68 intermittently pushes the blister boxes 90 stacked in the second linear guide groove 67 to the platform 80, and at the same time supports the subsequent blister boxes 90 in the second linear guide groove 67 to prevent the plastic boxes from tipping forward, so that the subsequent blister boxes 90 can be stacked smoothly.

The driving end of the second driving unit 683 is connected to a material shifting rod 684 which can extend into or out of the second linear guide groove 67. The first driving unit 682 drives the material shifting seat 681 to move so that the material shifting rod 684 intermittently pushes the blister boxes 90 stacked in the second linear guide groove 67 forward to the platform 80, and supports the subsequent blister boxes 90 in the second linear guide groove 67 to prevent the blister boxes 90 from tipping forward. Specifically, the first driving unit 682 can adopt a driving mode selected from a linear motor, a synchronous belt + a stepping motor, and a screw rod + a stepping motor. The second driving unit 683 is arranged directly above the second linear guide groove 67. The second driving unit 683 can adopt a cylinder.

[0064] A third conveyor belt 81 is provided on one side of the platform 80 , and a third driving unit 82 is provided on the other side of the platform 80 . The third driving unit 82 can push the blister boxes 90 stacked on the platform 80 to the third conveyor belt 81 . Specifically, the third driving unit 82 can be a cylinder.

[0065] The flip stacking mechanism 60 also has a quantity detection component (not shown). When the quantity detection component detects that the blister boxes 90 in the second linear guide groove 67 are stacked to the target quantity, the material shifting component 68 pushes the stacked blister boxes 90 whose quantity has been counted in the second linear guide groove 67 forward to the platform 80. The quantity detection component has a sensor. The sensor can count the number of stacked blister boxes 90 by detecting the number of revolutions of the rotating frame 63, or can count the number of stacked blister boxes 90 by detecting the number of times the material shifting piece 652 shifts the blister boxes 90. By setting the quantity detection component, the number of stacked blister boxes 90 can be counted without stopping the machine, and the stacked blister boxes 90 whose quantity has been counted can be quickly pushed out to the platform 80 by using the material shifting component 68, so as to achieve high automation efficiency.
