Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of automatic production of ribbon cartridges, and particularly to an integrated device for automatic assembly and detection of ribbon cartridges. Background Art

[0002] The assembly production of ribbon cartridges is an important link in the label manufacturing process, mainly involving multiple processes such as closing the ribbon cartridge cover, ribbon detection, ribbon core detection, labeling, and laser marking. With the growth of market demand and the progress of technology, the production and detection of ribbon cartridges have gradually become one of the key factors for improving product quality and production efficiency.

[0003] The existing assembly and detection of ribbon cartridges are usually carried out manually or semi-automatically. Specifically, first, workers press the cover of the pre-assembled ribbon cartridge, and then manually pull the ribbon to check the quality of the ribbon and the ribbon core, and then perform the processes of labeling and laser marking.

[0004] However, the above methods have many deficiencies. Firstly, there is serious waste of human resources. Each process requires a dedicated operator, resulting in high labor costs. Secondly, the production efficiency is low. Due to the lack of an effective coordination mechanism between processes, bottleneck phenomena are likely to occur, affecting the overall production progress. In addition, the inconsistency of manual operations will also lead to large fluctuations in product quality, making it difficult to ensure a stable qualification rate. Therefore, how to develop an integrated device that can efficiently and stably complete the assembly and detection of ribbon cartridges has become an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

Specifically, the first horizontal transverse movement mechanism is responsible for precise positioning in the horizontal direction to ensure that the ribbon cartridge is accurately transferred to the target position; the first vertical movement mechanism adjusts the height in the vertical direction so that the first jaw mechanism can smoothly grasp the ribbon cartridge and lift it. This series of actions ensures that the ribbon cartridge will not shift or be damaged during the transfer process, improving the stability and reliability of the equipment.

[0016] Optionally, the detection positioning plate is provided with a positioning groove adapted to the ribbon cartridge, and a positioning shaft, a winding wheel, a clamping wheel and a detection wheel adapted to the structure of the ribbon cartridge are provided in the positioning groove; the winding wheel is rotatably connected in the positioning groove, and the winding wheel meshes with the winding tooth disc in the ribbon cartridge and is fixed on a servo motor provided at the bottom of the positioning groove; the detection wheel is rotatably connected to the first transverse movement mechanism, changes its position through the first transverse movement mechanism, and abuts against the ribbon, and a code disc is fixed at the lower end of the detection wheel, and an encoder is provided on the side of the code disc; the clamping wheel is rotatably connected to the second transverse movement mechanism, changes its position through the second transverse movement mechanism, and abuts against the ribbon.

The vertical movement mechanism further improves the precision control ability, enabling the clamping mechanism to accurately position to the specific part of the ribbon cartridge in the vertical direction, thus effectively avoiding misoperations or damages caused by inaccurate positioning. The clamping mechanism is responsible for firmly clamping one end of the ribbon and slowly pulling it out of the ribbon cartridge, facilitating subsequent detection operations. During the whole process, each component works together, not only ensuring the working efficiency but also significantly improving the reliability of the detection results.

[0022] Optionally, a ribbon waste discharge port is provided in the traveling direction of the mobile end of the horizontal and longitudinal movement mechanism.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, not only the operating efficiency of the whole system is improved, but also the quality consistency of the final product is ensured.
