[0002] The body of the beer can is made of aluminum alloy sheet after multiple thinning and stretching. It is a kind of packaging container. Its production process is simple, stamping and integrated molding, high safety factor, not easy to burst, light weight, easy to carry, small capacity to meet the one-time drinking needs of most people, and good freshness preservation;

[0003] In the process of producing beer cans, it is necessary to print the production date and other identification information on the bottom of the beer cans, so that consumers can better understand the specific information of the product, and it is also convenient for regulatory authorities to manage and supervise product quality. In the process of coding the beer cans, it is usually done by handheld inkjet printers;

[0004] At present, in the process of coding the cans of beer, although the coding cans can be done by hand-held inkjet printers, the operation is cumbersome and the workload on the personnel is relatively heavy. Some automatic coding equipment for beer cans moves the beer cans to the lower side of the inkjet printer through a driving device, and then drives the inkjet printer to move to the upper side of the beer cans through an adjusting device, thereby coding the beer cans. Although this reduces the workload of the personnel, it also makes the internal structure of the automatic coding equipment for beer cans more complicated and the cost is relatively high. For this reason, we propose an automatic coding equipment for beer cans. Utility Model Content
