Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of code spraying and positioning, in particular to an ice cream packaging code spraying and positioning device. Background Art

[0002] There are many kinds of inkjet printers nowadays, but when applied to ice cream packaging, the recognition device directly recognizes the packaging, and the different light, cup shape and size will affect the recognition position of the recognition device, resulting in deviation in the position of the code or no code, which can easily cause the ice cream packaging box to fail to meet the quality inspection requirements. Especially now that a multi-functional ice cream filling machine is used, the next step of the code is to fill the ice cream raw materials. After filling, the production date on the ice cream packaging will be missed or sprayed incorrectly, which will not only lead to waste of ice cream packaging boxes, but also waste of ice cream raw materials. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides an ice cream packaging code spraying positioning device, which solves the problems of skewed and missed codes in the prior art.

[0004] According to an embodiment of the utility model, an ice cream packaging coding positioning device comprises a load-bearing frame, an ice cream packaging fixing frame, an ice cream packaging mold and a coding device arranged on the ice cream packaging fixing frame; the coding device comprises a coding machine body, and a flexible coding tube connected to the spraying device, the other end of the flexible coding tube is connected to the spraying device; a synchronization device, the synchronization device comprises a load-bearing frame arranged above the ice cream packaging fixing frame, the load-bearing frame is provided with a positioning block, the position of the positioning block corresponds to the position of the ice cream packaging mold, and can effectively reduce the coding error. The load-bearing frame is also provided with a synchronous motion mechanism, the synchronous motion mechanism is fixedly connected with a synchronous connecting rod that moves with the synchronous motion mechanism, one end of the synchronous connecting rod is connected to the spraying device, and the other end is connected with an identification device, the identification device moves along the surface where the positioning block is located, and when the synchronous motion mechanism moves, each time the identification device moves to a positioning block, the spraying device moves to the corresponding ice cream packaging mold.

[0005] The ice cream packaging fixing frame is provided with at least four ice cream packaging molds which are linearly distributed along a horizontal plane, so that multiple packages can be sprayed with codes at the same time, thus saving time and cost.

[0006] The synchronous connection mechanism is a drag chain, in which cables and control rod structures are installed. There are separators in the drag chain to separate different lines to avoid entanglement and expose the lines, which reduces the service life. The chain can be translated and bent through the control rod to drive the identification device and the spraying device on the synchronous connection rod to move. One end of the drag chain is connected to the synchronous connection rod, and the other end is fixed to the load-bearing frame by bolts.

[0007] The synchronous connection mechanism is a sliding module, including a slider installed on a slide rail and a driving device for driving the slider. The slide rail is welded on the load-bearing frame; the driving device is composed of a motor, a sensor, and a crank-connecting rod structure. The motor acts on the crank-connecting rod mechanism, and the slider is driven by the crank-connecting rod to translate. The sensor determines the position of the slider. When the driving device acts on the slider, the slider starts to move. The guide surface of the slide rail ensures that the slider moves linearly on the slide rail, and the ball rolls the slider from a stationary state to a moving state. When the driving device stops acting on the slider, the slider stops moving and remains at a certain position. The guide surface of the slide rail ensures that the slider is still in full contact with the guide rail in the stopped state, and the ball rolls stop rolling. Its function is to drive the movement of the identification device and the spraying device.

[0008] The flexible inkjet tube can be a bellows, and the bellows can be used to make the spray device move synchronously with the identification device installed on the upper end of the synchronous connecting rod. The synchronous connecting rod is made of a rigid material, such as stainless steel, and the material is not easy to deform, so that the synchronous connecting rod can achieve synchronous movement, and the service life is long and the accuracy is high.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects: the bottom of the ice cream packaging box faces the nozzle, and the synchronous motion mechanism drives the spraying device to move horizontally while the recognition device scans horizontally through the synchronous connecting rod. When the recognition device scans the positioning block, the spraying device sprays the code synchronously through the nozzle. After half a horizontal cycle, the coding work is completed. By using the positioning block corresponding to the position of the ice cream packaging mold as a marker, the technical problem of easy mistakes and omissions in the coding process is solved, which can effectively reduce the waste of packaging and ice cream raw materials and reduce complaints caused by missing production dates.

[0014] The technical solution of the present utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0015] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides an ice cream packaging coding positioning device, comprising an ice cream packaging fixing frame 4, an ice cream packaging mold 5 and a coding device arranged on the ice cream packaging fixing frame 4; the coding device comprises a coding machine body 1, and a flexible coding tube 102 connected to the spraying device 101, the other end of the flexible coding tube 102 is connected to the spraying device 101, the flexible coding tube 102 can adopt a bellows, and the retractable characteristics of the bellows are utilized so that the spraying device 101 can move synchronously with the identification device 6 installed on the upper end of the synchronous connecting rod 103; a synchronous device, the synchronous device comprises a load-bearing frame 2 arranged above the ice cream packaging fixing frame 4, a positioning block 3 is arranged on the load-bearing frame 2, and the position of the positioning block 3 corresponds to the position of the ice cream packaging mold 5 one by one; a synchronous motion mechanism 7 is also arranged on the load-bearing frame 2, one end of the synchronous connecting rod 103 is connected to the spraying device 101, and the other end is connected to the identification device 6, and the identification device 6 moves along the surface where the positioning block is located. When the synchronous motion mechanism moves, each time the recognition device 6 moves to a positioning block 3, the spraying device moves to the corresponding ice cream packaging mold 5. The recognition device 6 can be a photoelectric switch. Since the positioning block 3 acts as a baffle, the scanning device 6 senses the position of the positioning block 3 when it approaches the positioning block 3, so that the scanning device 6 can accurately determine the position of the positioning block 3 and transmit the signal to the spraying device 101 to start coding. The horizontal length of the positioning block 3 is consistent with the length of the production date to be coded. Since the length of the synchronous connecting rod 103 is fixed and the synchronous connecting rod is made of rigid material such as stainless steel, the horizontal and vertical positions of the coding can be guaranteed to be the same.

[0016] The inkjet printer includes an inkjet printer body 1, a flexible inkjet printer tube 102 connected to the inkjet printer body 1, and the other end of the flexible inkjet printer tube 102 is connected to a spraying device 101. The upper part of the spraying device 101 is connected to the lower end of the identification device 6 through a synchronous connecting rod 103, so that the synchronous connecting rod 103 drives the movement of 6 and the spraying device 101. A nozzle 104 is installed at one end of the spraying device 101 facing the ice cream packaging fixed frame 4, which can realize the accurate spraying of the production date to the corresponding position of the ice cream packaging box according to the program. The ice cream packaging frame 4 is a structure for installing the ice cream packaging mold 5.

[0017] like Figure 2 As shown, the ice cream packaging fixing frame 4 has at least four ice cream packaging molds 5 linearly distributed along the horizontal plane, which can effectively utilize the space of the ice cream packaging fixing frame 4. The size of the ice cream packaging mold 5 is just enough to fit the inner wall of the ice cream packaging box 501, so that the ice cream packaging box 501 can be accurately inserted into the ice cream mold, avoiding the position error of the inkjet code caused by the skewness of the ice cream packaging box 501. The ice cream packaging mold 5 can be replaced according to different ice cream packaging boxes 501, and the position corresponding to the positioning block must be kept during replacement.

[0018] The flexible inkjet printer tube 102 contains wires and ink delivery tubes, and serves to connect the printer body 1 with the spraying device 101, so that the printer body 1 can control the spraying of the spraying device. The printer body 1 also includes an intelligent control panel, which can perform fine adjustments such as date modification and ink spraying amount through the panel.

[0019] Example 1

[0020] The synchronous connection mechanism 7 is a drag chain 703, and cables and control rod structures are installed inside the drag chain 703. A separator is also installed inside the drag chain 703 to separate different cables to avoid entanglement and expose the lines, which reduces the service life. The movable end of the drag chain 7 is connected to the synchronous connection rod 103, and the fixed end is fixed to the load-bearing frame 2 by bolts. Figure 1 Figure 2 As shown, the detailed working process of this embodiment is: the bottom of the ice cream packaging box 501 faces the nozzle 104, and the recognition device 6 drives the synchronous connecting rod 102 and the spraying device 101 to move horizontally while scanning horizontally. When the recognition device 6 scans the positioning block 3, the spraying device 101 synchronously sprays the code through the nozzle 103. After half a horizontal cycle, the coding work is completed.

[0021] Example 2

[0022] like Figure 3As shown, different from the embodiment 1, the synchronous connection mechanism 7 is a slider module, including a slider 701 mounted on a slide rail 702, and a driving device for driving the slider to move horizontally. The driving device is composed of a motor 706, a sensor, a crank connecting rod 1 704, and a crank connecting rod 2 705. The motor acts on the crank connecting rod 1 704, and the crank connecting rod 1 704 rotates, driving the crank connecting rod 2 705 to move horizontally, and the crank connecting rod 2 705 drives the slider to translate, and the sensor determines the position of the slider.

[0023] The slide rail 702 is welded on the load-bearing frame 2 so that the slide rail can bear the weight of the synchronous connecting rod 103, the spraying device 101 and the identification device 6. The operating principle is to realize the sliding module to drive the identification device 6, the synchronous connecting rod 102 and the spraying device 101 to move horizontally through the driving device. When the identification device 6 identifies the positioning block 3, the nozzle 103 sprays the code. Its working principle is the same as that of Example 1.

[0024] Since the recognition device 6 no longer scans the ice cream packaging box 501 but scans the positioning block 3 instead, the impact of the environment on the recognition device 6 is minimized, and the pass rate of the ice cream packaging boxes has increased sharply, from more than 300 unqualified products / h before the improvement to less than 3 unqualified products / h after the improvement, which is a significant improvement.

[0025] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
