Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of bottle label arrangement, in particular to a bottle label arrangement device and a transmission device. Background Art

[0002] After the bottled products are filled from the filling machine according to the system program, they are circulated to the packaging section, and then put on the outer label through the labeling machine, and then enter the steam shrinking furnace for shrinking. Products with qualified outer label shrinkage enter the outer cover link, and finally enter the gift box after grabbing. The running speed of the labeling machine is 450 bottles / minute. When the milk bottle enters the labeling machine, the outer label is put on the outside of the bottle body by the label shooting device, and then the outer label is blown down by two parallel compressed air nozzles (3cm long, 0.3cm wide, air pressure 2bar) for finishing, and finally the outer label is shrunk in the shrinking furnace. However, in actual production: ① The outer label is made of soft OPP composite pearlescent film material. When compressed air is blown from top to bottom, the outer label will float and bend. ② When the compressed air blows the outer label, the outer label will stick to the wall of the milk bottle and move downward slowly. The distance between the labeling machine and the hot steam shrinking furnace is 1 meter, and the bottle movement time is 3S. Bottles with unfinished outer labels will have "high labels" and "poor shrinkage" products will appear after passing through the shrinking furnace. The above phenomenon will cause the following effects:

[0003] ① High-standard products will become "poorly shrunk" products after passing through the steam shrinkage furnace. These products can only be scrapped and disposed of on the ground after being discovered, because after being heated by 43°C steam once, they cannot be heated again, otherwise the product will deteriorate. According to the statistics of bag drop data, a total of 7,546 bottles of products with poor external label shrinkage appeared in 2021. The production cost of each bottle is 4.8 yuan, and the waste cost is about: 7546*4.8=36,000 yuan; ② Products with poor shrinkage, the first phenomenon is that the upper part of the bottle label is too high, resulting in the lower part not covering the bottom of the bottle; the second situation is that the bottle label is wrinkled and twisted. If this kind of product is not discovered and removed, it will cause market complaints when it circulates to the market, and the terminal image will be unqualified. In 2021, there were a total of 3 market complaints about unqualified terminal image due to poor shrinkage of bottle labels, which seriously lowered the factory's quality performance ranking and affected the corporate creed.

[0004] In order to improve the above phenomenon, the pressure of compressed air for external labeling, the speed of labeling, the moving speed of chain milk bottles, and the distance between the labeling machine and the shrinking furnace were controlled according to the physical control variable method. The experiment found that: ① When the pressure of compressed air is greater than 2 bar, the bottle label adheres to the bottle wall strongly and basically cannot achieve any sorting effect; ② When the pressure of compressed air is less than 2 bar, under the premise of a fixed labeling speed (0.5S / bottle), some bottle labels still have unqualified sorting phenomena; ③ When the displacement speed of the chain milk bottle is controlled to decrease, the product after hot steam shrinkage, the milk will have quality, and the shelf life will be less than 6 months. It can be seen that by changing these variables, the above phenomenon cannot be fundamentally improved. Utility Model Content

[0026] In order to have a clearer understanding of the technical features, purposes and effects of the utility model, the specific implementation methods of the utility model are now described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present application provides a bottle label sorting device, comprising two rotating rods 1 arranged in parallel and at intervals, and a driving device, the axes of the rotating rods 1 are arranged horizontally, the two rotating rods 1 rotate in opposite directions and can rotate from the top to the middle of the two; a plurality of groups of sorting components are arranged on each of the rotating rods 1 along the axis direction thereof, each group of the sorting components includes at least one flexible sorting strip 2; the driving device is connected to each of the rotating rods 1, and can drive the rotating rods 1 to rotate, so as to drive the flexible sorting strips 2 on the two rotating rods 1 to rotate.

[0028] When in use, the bottle label sorting device is used to be installed on the transmission device, and the two rotating rods 1 are located on both sides above the transmission area of ​​the transmission device. The axial direction of the rotating rod 1 should be parallel to the conveying direction V of the transmission device. When the driving device is working, it will drive the two rotating rods 1 to rotate, and then drive all the flexible sorting strips 2 to rotate. When the bottled product enters the rotation range of the flexible sorting strip 2 (that is, enters the area between the two rotating rods 1), the flexible sorting strip 2 will hit the bottle label on the bottled product and sort it downward. The flexible sorting strip 2 is used to contact and sort the bottle label. The flexible sorting strip 2 is soft and has friction with the bottle label when working, which can pull the float downward well.

[0029] Therefore, the bottle sorting device of the present application can replace the compressed air nozzle device for sorting bottle labels on the existing transmission device. When the bottled product with the bottle label enters the bottle label sorting device, the multiple flexible sorting strips 2 on the rotating rods 1 on both sides will simultaneously sort the two sides of the bottle label downward. From entering to flowing out, the bottled product will be sorted multiple times by the flexible sorting strips 2 on the rotating rods 1 on both sides. By controlling the number of flexible sorting strips 2 on the rotating rod 1 and the rotation speed of the rotating rod 1, the bottle label can be sorted in place, and the sorting effect is better. There will be no more products with "high labels" and "poorly shrunken" bottle labels, thereby ensuring product quality.

[0030] In a specific implementation, the flexible arranging strip 2 is a rubber strip. It is preferably made of TPE (Thermoplastic Elastome) material, which is highly flexible and generates friction with the bottle label, making it more conducive to pulling the bottle label downward and arranging it. The rotating rod 1 can be, for example, a cylindrical stainless steel rod.

[0031] Since the transmission speed of the transmission device cannot be changed at will, the number of groups of sorting components on the rotating rod 1, the number of flexible sorting strips 2 in each group of sorting components, the spacing between adjacent sorting components and the rotation speed of the rotating rod 1 should be determined according to the transmission speed of the transmission device and related dimensional parameters, so as to ensure that when the bottled product moves from the label sleeve machine to the middle of the hot steam shrinking furnace, the bottle label sorting device of the present application can just sort the bottle label down to the specified position.

[0032] In one embodiment, a plurality of mounting holes 11 are provided on the rotating rod 1, and the mounting holes 11 penetrate the rotating rod 1 along the diameter direction of the rotating rod 1; each group of the sorting components includes one flexible sorting strip 2, and the middle portion of each flexible sorting strip 2 is passed through and fixed in the corresponding mounting hole 11, and there is a preset angle between the axes of the two mounting holes 11 corresponding to two adjacent flexible sorting strips 2 on the rotating rod 1, so that the force exerted by each flexible sorting strip 2 on the bottle label can be more uniform, and the time interval between the contact between two adjacent flexible sorting strips 2 and the bottle label is shorter, so that the bottle label sorting speed is faster.

[0033] In this manner, the axes of the two mounting holes 11 corresponding to the two adjacent flexible arranging strips 2 on the rotating rod 1 are vertically arranged, that is, the two adjacent mounting holes 11 are in a vertical "X" shape.

[0034] The above-mentioned mounting holes 11 are formed by drilling with an electric drill, and the mounting holes 11 on the two rotating rods 1 are arranged symmetrically; the spacing between two adjacent mounting holes 11, the size of the mounting holes 11 and the number of mounting holes 11 are determined according to needs. For example, when applied to bottled products of small bottles of yogurt, refer to Figure 1The following driving structure 3 is connected to the middle position of the rotating rod 1. The length of the rotating rod 1 is 50 cm and the diameter is 1 cm. 14 mounting holes 11 are provided on the rotating rod 1 and on both sides of the driving structure 3. A total of 28 mounting holes are provided on the entire rotating rod 1. The aperture of the mounting hole 11 is 0.1 cm, and the distance between adjacent mounting holes 11 is 1 cm. The number of flexible tidying strips 2 on each rotating rod 1 is 28, which are respectively inserted into the 28 mounting holes 11 on the rotating rod 1. The length of each flexible tidying strip 2 is 8 cm, and the middle position of the flexible tidying strip 2 is penetrated and fixed in the mounting hole 11.

[0035] When in use, when the bottled product enters the area between the two rotating rods 1, it will be sorted multiple times by the flexible sorting strips 2 on the rotating rods 1 on both sides. The two flexible sorting strips 2 installed in the two symmetrically arranged mounting holes 11 on the two rotating rods 1 sort the bottle label once. When the bottled product passes through the area on one side of the driving structure 3, the flexible sorting strips 2 will sort the bottle label 14 times in total. When passing through the area on the other side of the driving structure 3, the flexible sorting strips 2 will sort the bottle label 14 times. Experiments have shown that after being sorted by the device, the sorting of the product bottle labels entering the hot steam drying oven meets the requirements. It can be understood that Figure 1 Only one flexible finishing strip 2 is shown in the figure, but in actual installation, each mounting hole 11 will be provided with a flexible finishing strip 2.

[0036] In another embodiment, a plurality of mounting holes 11 are provided on the rotating rod 1, and the mounting holes 11 penetrate the rotating rod 1 along the diameter direction of the rotating rod 1; each group of the organizing components includes at least two of the flexible organizing strips 2, and the middle portion of each of the flexible organizing strips 2 is passed through and fixed in the corresponding mounting hole 11, and a preset angle exists between the axes of the mounting holes 11 corresponding to the flexible organizing strips 2 in each group of the organizing components.

[0037] In order to facilitate driving the rotating rod 1 to rotate, the driving device includes two groups of driving structures 3, each group of the driving structures 3 is connected to the corresponding rotating rod 1 and can drive the corresponding rotating rod 1 to rotate.

[0038] More specifically, each group of the driving structure 3 includes a motor 31, a mounting shell 32, and a gear assembly arranged in the mounting shell 32. The rotating rod 1 can rotatably pass through one end of the mounting shell 32, and the motor shaft of the motor 31 can rotatably pass through the other end of the mounting shell 32. The axis of the motor shaft is parallel to the axis of the rotating rod 1, and the motor shaft is connected to the rotating rod 1 through the gear assembly.

[0039] Generally, the middle position of the rotating rod 1 is inserted into the mounting shell 32 to make the structure more stable. The motor 31 can be, for example, a motor 31 with specifications of 220V, 60HZ, 0.24A, and 1600RPM. During installation, the motor shell of the motor 31 is fixed to the mounting shell 32, and the mounting shell 32 can be fixed to the side of the transmission device. The distance between the two mounting shells 32 should be determined according to the size of the bottled product. For example, when applied to bottled products of small bottles of yogurt, the distance between the two mounting shells 32 is 10cm.

[0040] Of course, the driving device may also adopt other structural forms as required, and this embodiment is only an example.

[0041] Furthermore, the present application also provides a transmission device, including the above-mentioned bottle label arrangement device; the two rotating rods 1 are arranged on both sides above the transmission area of ​​the transmission device, and the axial direction of the rotating rod 1 is parallel to the conveying direction V of the transmission device.

[0042] The transmission device is installed with the above-mentioned bottle label arrangement device, which has the same advantages as the bottle label arrangement device and will not be described in detail here.

[0043] In practical applications, the transmission device further includes a controller, and an electric eye sensor is also provided on the transmission device. The controller is electrically connected to the electric eye sensor and the driving device.

[0044] The electric eye sensor here can be a separate sensor or the electric eye sensor of the marking device (the marking device is located above the transmission platform and in front of the bottle label arrangement device). The axis direction of the electric eye sensor is perpendicular to the conveying direction V of the transmission device. When a bottled product passes through the electric eye sensor, the laser directly emitted by the electric eye sensor is blocked. The controller controls the drive device of the bottle label arrangement device to start arranging the bottle labels according to the signal of the electric eye sensor. The drive device is associated with the electric eye sensor of the marking device. When a bottle enters the marking device, the marking device and the bottle label arrangement device will start working. When there is no bottle, they will stop, which will not cause energy waste.

[0045] The above-mentioned transmission device can be, for example, a transmission chain buffer platform, specifically including a transmission platform, on the top surface of which multiple rows of conveyor chains are arranged in parallel, and the multiple rows of conveyor chains constitute a conveying area; the bottle label sorting device is installed on the transmission platform. The specific structure of the above-mentioned transmission device, the electric eye sensor and the structure of the marking device are all existing structures. The improvement of this application mainly lies in the structure of the bottle label sorting device, and the application of the bottle label sorting device to the transmission device, so as to use the flexible sorting strip 2 to sort the bottle labels.

[0046] In summary, the bottle label arrangement device and the transmission device in this embodiment, by using the contact arrangement function of the flexible arrangement strip 2 on the bottle label, can ensure the arrangement effect of the bottle label, and no longer produce products with "high labels" or "poor shrinkage" of the bottle label, directly saving production costs of 40,000 yuan per year. According to the product quality sampling data, after the bottle arrangement device of this embodiment is used to replace the compressed air nozzle device of the prior art, the market terminal image complaint rate caused by poor shrinkage of the bottle label is 0, which effectively defends the product quality and better implements the goal of "quality leadership".

[0047] The above is only an illustrative embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Any equivalent changes and modifications made by any technician in the field without departing from the concept and principle of the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
