Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of label preparation technology, and in particular to a device for preparing product traceability labels for use on a production line. Background Technology
[0002] During the processing on the production line, the workpieces need to be labeled accordingly. This allows the labels to be scanned and calibrated at each workstation as the workpieces enter the production line. This makes it easier to trace back and determine which workstation on the production line made the mistake if a defective workpiece is found.
[0003] The aforementioned labels are also produced through a process. In the production of labels, the initial labels are on a roll. Several initial labels on the roll have their own corresponding QR codes, and each initial label has two symmetrical QR codes. These two symmetrical QR codes need to be bent and pasted back to back to form a usable label with QR codes on both sides. In this way, the usable label with QR codes on both sides is pasted on the workpiece. Regardless of whether the workpiece is processed on the front or the back, it can be scanned, and there will be no situation where the label is blocked and cannot be scanned.
[0004] The initial labels on the roll need to undergo a bending and back-to-back bonding process to become usable labels with two QR codes facing outwards. During the processing of the initial labels, the initial labels with two QR codes on one side are gradually bent until they are back-to-back and two QR codes facing outwards. Traditionally, the initial labels are bent and bonded manually to form usable labels. However, this bonding process is prone to errors by the naked eye, such as crooked bonding or weak adhesion. By setting up an automated bonding system, one side is the initial label roll and the other side is the usable label roll, with a bending hook plate in between. The initial labels on the initial label roll are hooked up, then pressed, and then rolled into the usable label roll. However, in this process, during the hooking and pressing, the QR code on the hooked side is prone to curling inwards, resulting in pressing failure, low production efficiency, and low yield. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This application aims to solve the technical problem that in the process of hooking up the initial label on the initial label roll, then pressing it, and then winding it into the usable label roll, the QR code on the hooked side is prone to curling inward during the hooking and pressing process, resulting in pressing failure, low production efficiency, and low yield. The application provides a product traceability label preparation device for production line.

[0012] Furthermore, the label driving assembly is provided on both sides of the flat plate, and the label driving assembly includes a rotary motor, an output shaft, and a roll.

The rotary motor drives the output shaft to make the roll rotate. The label is discharged from the roll on one side as it rotates, and after being folded by the label folding processing component, it enters the roll on the other side for winding.
[0014] Furthermore, the label folding processing assembly is disposed on the flat plate, and the label folding processing assembly includes a first roller shaft, a first bending plate, a second bending plate, a third bending plate, a fourth bending plate, a fifth bending plate, a sixth bending plate, a second pressure plate, and a second roller shaft;

[0032] Reference Appendix Figures 1-9 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of a product traceability label preparation device applied to a production line in one embodiment of this application;
[0033] Example 1
[0034] An apparatus for preparing product traceability labels for production lines, the apparatus comprising:
[0035] A processing table, comprising a support, a control panel, and a flat panel;
[0036] The flat panel is positioned above the bracket, and the control panel is positioned on one side of the bracket;
[0037] A label driving assembly is provided on the bracket and is located on both sides. The label driving assembly feeds the label from one side of the flat plate and stretches it to the other side for unloading.
[0038] A label folding processing component is provided on the flat plate. The label folding processing component folds and attaches the label from the loading end of the label driving component to the unloading end of the label driving component.
[0039] In this embodiment, the label driving component is provided on both sides of the flat plate, and the label driving component includes a rotary motor, an output shaft, and a roll.
[0040] The rotary motor is mounted on the supports on both sides of the flat plate. The output shaft is connected to the rotary motor. The roll is nested on the output shaft. The rotary motor drives the output shaft to make the roll rotate. The label is discharged from the roll on one side as it rotates, and after being folded by the label folding processing component, it enters the roll on the other side for winding.
[0041] The label folding processing assembly is disposed on the flat plate, and the label folding processing assembly includes a first roller shaft, a first bending plate, a second bending plate, a third bending plate, a fourth bending plate, a fifth bending plate, a sixth bending plate, a second pressure plate, and a second roller shaft;
[0042] The first roller, the first bending plate, the second bending plate, the third bending plate, the fourth bending plate, the fifth bending plate, the sixth bending plate, the second pressure plate, and the second roller are all disposed on the flat plate, and the first roller, the first bending plate, the second bending plate, the third bending plate, the fourth bending plate, the fifth bending plate, the sixth bending plate, the second pressure plate, and the second roller are arranged in sequence according to the processing order.
[0043] Specifically,
[0044] First, the worker inserts the initial label roll into the output shaft on the left side of the flat plate. The roll is set up like a transparent film roll. Then, one corner of the initial label roll is opened and it passes between the first roller and the flat plate. There is a flattening effect of the roll paper. Then, it passes through the first bending plate, the second bending plate, the third bending plate, the fourth bending plate, the fifth bending plate, and the sixth bending plate in sequence. After exiting the sixth bending plate, it enters the second pressure plate and the second roller, and then onto the usable label roll on the right side of the flat plate. At this time, the rotary motor drives the rolls on both sides to rotate, so that the initial label roll is wound up onto the usable label roll on the right side of the flat plate after a series of processing.
[0045] It should be noted that the labels on the roll of paper are folded simultaneously. As the roll of paper passes through the first roller, the first bending plate, the second bending plate, the third bending plate, the fourth bending plate, the fifth bending plate, the sixth bending plate, the second pressure plate, and the second roller, the four labels on the roll of paper will simultaneously undergo flattening and bending at 90 degrees, until they are completely adhered after bending at 180 degrees, and then flattened again until the roll of usable labels on the right side of the flat plate is wound up.
[0046] Most importantly, the bending process is based on extensive experimental data. It has been proven that the bending angle cannot be too large. If the bending angle is too large, bending one label to adhere to the other will cause slight curling, resulting in inward folding and incomplete QR code display. Therefore, bending must be done at small angles sequentially, and too many small-angle bends should be avoided as this affects the label bending speed. Therefore, after testing, six bending plates were set up, with the bending angles sequentially as follows: first bending plate 80°, second bending plate 110°, third bending plate 14°... 0 degrees, fourth bend 160°, fifth bend 170°, sixth bend 180°. At this point, the initial label roll, fed by the rotary motor, has four labels on one side with two QR codes. After the bending process, the four labels on one side become one QR code on the other side. However, this side has QR codes on both sides, whereas the initial labels only have two QR codes on the front and none on the back. After bending, there is one QR code on both sides. Finally, the bent labels are rolled into a usable label roll, achieving the goal of highly efficient label folding with an extremely high yield rate.
[0047] In this embodiment, a flattening mechanism is also provided on one side of the flat plate, which flattens the roll label. Specifically, it has the function of flattening the roll of paper.
