[0066] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts related to the present invention, rather than all structures, are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0067] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connected", "connected", and "fixed" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0068] In the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may include that the first and second features are in direct contact, or may include that the first and second features are not in direct contact but are in contact through another feature between them. Moreover, a first feature being "above", "above" and "above" a second feature includes that the first feature is directly above and obliquely above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below", "below" and "below" a second feature includes that the first feature is directly below and obliquely below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0069] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and other directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of description and simplified operation, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation of the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description and have no special meaning.

[0070] like Figure 1 As shown, a product 100 to be labeled is shown, specifically an electric energy meter. In other embodiments, it can also be a circuit breaker, relay, or other product that needs labeling. The product 100 has a left side 110, a right side 120, and a top side 130. Each product 100 is affixed with a barcode 200, and the barcode 200 can be affixed to one of the above sides. Since the outer shell of the product 100 is composed of an upper shell and a lower shell, a gap 140 is formed at the connection between the upper shell and the lower shell. There are many forms of barcode 200. For example, the barcode 200 can be pasted horizontally parallel to the gap 140. At this time, the barcode 200 can be aligned with the gap 140 or ride on the gap 140; the barcode 200 can also be pasted vertically perpendicular to the gap 140. At this time, the barcode 200 is generally made to ride on the gap 140. There are also many specifications for the size of the barcode 200, such as 40x10mm, 60x18mm, and 70x15mm.

[0071] In order to be able to affix barcodes 200 of various specifications in different forms on different sides of the product 100, such as Figure 2-Figure 4As shown, this embodiment proposes a labeling device, which includes a barcode sticking mechanism 2 and a driving mechanism 3. The barcode sticking mechanism 2 includes an adsorption head 21, a first driving component 22 and a second driving component 23. The adsorption head 21 is arranged at the driving end of the first driving component 22, and is used to adsorb the barcode 200 to be attached. The first driving component 22 can drive the adsorption head 21 to rotate around the Y axis; the fixed end of the first driving component 22 is connected to the driving end of the second driving component 23, and the second driving component 23 can drive the first driving component 22 and the adsorption head 21 to rotate around the X axis. The X axis and the Y axis are configured to be perpendicular to each other on a horizontal plane. The driving mechanism 3 is used to drive the barcode sticking mechanism 2 to move along the X axis, the Y axis and the Z axis respectively, so that the barcode sticking mechanism 2 is transferred between the material taking place of the barcode 200 and the product 100, and the Z axis is configured to be perpendicular to each other with the X axis / Y axis on a vertical plane. Among them, the X axis direction is the left-right direction, the Y axis direction is the front-back direction, and the Z axis direction is the up-down direction.

[0072] By setting the first driving component 22 and the second driving component 23, the adsorption head 21 is driven to rotate in two directions perpendicular to each other, so that the barcode 200 adsorbed on the adsorption head 21 can be adjusted to a horizontal state and a vertical state, and the barcode 200 can be adjusted to two perpendicular sides facing the product 100, so that the barcode 200 can be attached to multiple sides of the product 100. The barcode attachment mechanism 2 is driven by the driving mechanism 3 to move freely in three perpendicular directions, so that the barcode 200 is aligned with the attachment position on the product 100 to complete the attachment. For different types of products 100 and different attachment forms and attachment positions of the barcode 200 on the product 100, the barcode 200 can be attached by the labeling device, without the need to configure multiple types of labeling devices, saving equipment costs.

[0073] Alternatively, if Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the second driving assembly 23 includes a second gear shaft 231, a second rack 232 and a second driving member 233, and the second gear shaft 231 is connected to the fixed end of the first driving assembly 22. The second rack 232 is extended along the Y axis, and the second rack 232 is meshed with the second gear shaft 231 for transmission. The fixed end of the second driving member 233 is connected to the driving end of the driving mechanism 3, and the driving end of the second driving member 233 is connected to the second rack 232 to drive the second rack 232 to move along the Y axis. Specifically, the second driving member 233 can be a cylinder or an electric cylinder, and the cylinder or electric cylinder is telescopically driven to drive the second rack 232 to move back and forth.

[0074] The second driving member 233 drives the second rack 232 to move along the Y axis, driving the second gear shaft 231 to rotate around the X axis, thereby causing the adsorption head 21 to rotate around the X axis. Figure 5As shown, the adsorption head 21 adsorbs the barcode 200 from the barcode printing and stripping mechanism 5 in a horizontal state. The initial state of the barcode 200 is horizontal. After rotating around the X-axis, the barcode 200 can be adjusted to a vertical state.

[0075] In order to facilitate the installation of the second driving member 233, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the second driving assembly 23 further includes a connecting frame 234, which is disposed at the driving end of the driving mechanism 3, the fixed end of the second driving member 233 is connected to one side of the connecting frame 234, the second gear shaft 231 is passed through the connecting frame 234, and the first driving assembly 22 is disposed on the other side of the connecting frame 234. Preferably, the second gear shaft 231 can be mounted on the connecting frame 234 through a bearing so as to be firmly mounted and able to rotate smoothly.

[0076] Furthermore, in order to limit the rotation angle of the second gear shaft 231 so that the adsorption head 21 can stop in time after rotating to the desired position, a second stopper 235 and / or a third stopper 236 are provided on the connecting frame 234. When the second driving member 233 drives the adsorption head 21 to rotate to the second position, the first driving component 22 will abut against the second stopper 235. In the second position, the adsorption surface of the adsorption head 21 extends along the Y axis. When the second driving member 233 drives the adsorption head 21 to rotate to the third position, the first driving component 22 will abut against the third stopper 236. In the third position, the adsorption surface of the adsorption head 21 extends along the Z axis. By constraining the second position and the third position, the second gear shaft 231 is reciprocated within a range of 90°, so that the barcode 200 on the adsorption head 21 is switched between the horizontal posture and the vertical posture.

[0077] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the first driving assembly 22 includes a mounting rotating plate 224, which can rotate around the X-axis direction and is connected to the driving end of the second driving member 233, that is, the mounting rotating plate 224 is connected to the second gear shaft 231. The mounting rotating plate 224 includes a rotating plate body 2241 and a limit block 2242, and the limit block 2242 abuts against the second limit member 235 when it rotates to a vertical state, and abuts against the third limit member 236 when it rotates to a horizontal state.

[0078] Furthermore, if Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the first driving assembly 22 also includes a first gear shaft 221, a first rack 222 and a first driving member 223. The first gear shaft 221 is connected to the adsorption head 21, and the first rack 222 is extended along the X-axis. The first rack 222 is meshed with the first gear shaft 221. The fixed end of the first driving member 223 is connected to the driving end of the second driving assembly 23. The fixed end of the first driving member 223 is specifically connected to the mounting rotating plate 224. The driving end of the first driving member 223 is connected to the first rack 222 to drive the first rack 222 to move along the X-axis, thereby driving the adsorption head 21 to rotate around the Y-axis. Figure 6 As shown, the adsorption head 21 adsorbs the barcode 200 from the barcode printing and peeling mechanism 5 in a horizontal state. The initial state of the barcode 200 is horizontal. After rotating around the Y axis, the barcode 200 can be adjusted to a vertical state so that it can be attached to the side of the product 100.

[0079] Optionally, return to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The first driving assembly 22 further includes two support plates 226 and a connecting plate 227. The two support plates 226 are spaced apart on the mounting rotating plate 224, and the first gear shaft 221 is mounted on the two support plates 226 through a bearing. The connecting plate 227 is fixedly mounted on the first gear shaft 221 and is located between the two support plates 226. The adsorption head 21 is connected to the connecting plate 227 through two connecting columns 228. When the first gear shaft 221 rotates around the Y axis, the adsorption head 21 will be driven to rotate synchronously through the connecting plate 227.

[0080] In order to limit the rotation angle of the first gear shaft 221, as Figure 4 As shown, a first stopper 225 is provided on the mounting rotating plate 224. The first stopper 225 is used to stop the adsorption head 21 from rotating when it rotates around the Y axis to the first position. In the first position, the adsorption surface of the adsorption head 21 is parallel to the X axis. Specifically, the first stopper 225 is installed on the mounting rotating plate 224 through a stopper connecting plate 229. Figure 4 Taking the position of the installation rotating plate 224 as an example, the first stopper 225 is in a vertical state, and when the adsorption head 21 rotates upward around the Y axis to a horizontal state, the connecting plate 227 will abut against the first stopper 225. When the installation rotating plate 224 rotates 90°, the first stopper 225 is in a horizontal state, and the adsorption head 21 will rotate to a vertical state. The adsorption head 21 can rotate around the Z axis to abut against the first stopper 225. At this time, the adsorption surface of the adsorption head 21 remains parallel to the X axis. Of course, the adsorption head 21 can also be set to abut against the adsorption head 21 directly for limiting.

[0081] Furthermore, combined with Figure 4 , Fig.10 and Fig.11As shown, the adsorption head 21 includes an air cavity plate 211 and a label adsorption plate 212. The air cavity plate 211 is connected to the driving end of the first driving component 22. A plurality of air cavities 2111 are arranged on the air cavity plate 211, and each air cavity 2111 is independently connected to a corresponding vacuum generator. The label adsorption plate 212 is arranged on the air cavity plate 211 and covers the air cavity 2111. A plurality of adsorption holes 2121 are arranged on the label adsorption plate 212, and the adsorption holes 2121 are connected to the air cavity 2111. The adsorption holes 2121 corresponding to any air cavity 2111 form an adsorption area, and the adsorption area can adsorb the barcode 200 alone or in combination with at least two adsorption areas. The label adsorption plate 212 is set to a smooth surface to protect the barcode 200 and avoid damaging the barcode 200 when in contact with the barcode 200.

[0082] In this embodiment, Fig.11 As shown, there are three adsorption areas, namely, the first adsorption area 2101 and the second adsorption area 2102 which are symmetrically arranged, the first adsorption area 2101 and the second adsorption area 2102 are set to be L-shaped, and the strip area between the two is set to be the third adsorption area 2103. When it is necessary to adsorb a barcode of 40X10mm specification, the vacuum generator connected to the first adsorption area 2101 and the second adsorption area 2102 is controlled not to operate, and the vacuum generator connected to the third adsorption area 2103 is controlled to generate vacuum pressure to adsorb the barcode 200. When it is necessary to adsorb a barcode 200 of 70X15mm or 60X18mm specification, the vacuum generator connected to the third adsorption area 2103 is controlled not to operate, and the vacuum generator connected to the first adsorption area 2101 and the second adsorption area 2102 is controlled to generate vacuum pressure to adsorb the barcode 200.

[0083] Furthermore, if Figure 2 As shown, the labeling device includes a barcode printing and peeling mechanism 5, which uses an automatic printer to print a barcode 200 of corresponding specifications as required, and peels off a single barcode 200. The barcode printing and peeling mechanism 5 is provided with a discharge port 51 toward the barcode sticking mechanism 2, so as to output the barcode 200 from the discharge port 51 along the X-axis, so as to facilitate the barcode sticking mechanism 2 to adsorb the barcode 200. The barcode printing and peeling mechanism 5 can adopt a conventional structure in the prior art, and will not be described in detail here.

[0084] In order to load and unload the product 100, the labeling device further includes a conveying mechanism, which is used to convey the product 100 to be labeled. Specifically, the conveying mechanism includes a linear conveyor belt, on which the product 100 is placed, which moves along the Y-axis direction, and is loaded from one end of the linear conveyor belt, and is continuously conveyed to the other end for unloading after the barcode 200 is attached.

[0085] Optionally, the conveying mechanism includes two linear conveyor belts arranged at intervals, and the two linear conveyor belts are synchronously driven. The two ends of the product 100 are respectively placed on the two linear conveyor belts, and other operations can be performed on the product 100 in the hollow space between the two linear conveyor belts, which will be introduced later.

[0086] Furthermore, if Figure 2 As shown, the labeling device also includes a lifting and adjusting mechanism 4, which is arranged on the conveying route of the conveying mechanism and is located between two straight conveyor belts. The lifting and adjusting mechanism 4 can lift the product 100 conveyed by the conveying mechanism and drive the product 100 to rotate around the Z axis, so that the product 100 can be adjusted to a position convenient for the barcode sticking mechanism 2 to label.

[0087] Specifically, Figure 8 As shown, the lifting adjustment mechanism 4 includes a clamping assembly 41, a lifting drive 42 and a rotating drive 43. The clamping assembly 41 is used to clamp the product 100 conveyed on the conveying mechanism and clamp and fix the product 100. The lifting drive 42 is arranged on the lower side of the conveying mechanism. The clamping assembly 41 is connected to the driving end of the lifting drive 42 by a rotating shaft. The lifting drive 42 can drive the clamping assembly 41 to move along the Z axis. The driving end of the rotating drive 43 is connected to the rotating shaft to drive the rotating shaft and the clamping assembly 41 to rotate around the Z axis. When the product 100 is conveyed along the conveying mechanism, the lifting drive 42 drives the clamping assembly 41 to move downward to the lower side of the linear conveyor belt. When the product 100 moves above the clamping assembly 41, the clamping assembly 41 is driven to move upward to clamp the product 100. According to the labeling position and the shape of the barcode 200, the clamping assembly 41 is driven to rotate by the rotating drive 43 to adjust the product 100 to an angle convenient for labeling.

[0088] Specifically, the lifting drive member 42 may be an electric cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder, or may be a linear drive structure such as a motor 431, a lead screw module, etc. In this embodiment, the lifting drive member 42 is a pneumatic cylinder.

[0089] Alternatively, if Figure 8 As shown, the gripping assembly 41 includes a clamping claw cylinder 411 and a clamping claw 412.

The clamping claw 412 is arranged at the driving end of the clamping claw cylinder 411. The two clamping claws 412 are arranged along the Y direction to clamp the product 100 from both sides. The product 100 is clamped or released by the clamping claw cylinder 411 extending and retracting.

[0090] Alternatively, if Figure 8As shown, the rotating drive member 43 includes a motor 431 and a synchronous belt 432. The synchronous belt 432 connects the output shaft and the rotating shaft of the motor 431. The rotation of the output shaft of the motor 431 can drive the rotating shaft to rotate synchronously. The posture of the product 100 clamped by the clamp 412 is adjusted by the forward and reverse rotation of the motor 431, and the product 100 is rotated back to the initial angle after labeling is completed to be put back on the linear conveyor belt.

[0091] Furthermore, if Figure 8 As shown, in order to facilitate the installation of structures such as the clamping assembly 41, the lifting drive 42 and the rotating drive 43, the lifting adjustment mechanism 4 also includes a lifting fixed frame 46, a lifting guide 44 and a lifting movable plate 45. The lifting fixed frame 46 is fixedly arranged on the bottom plate (not shown in the figure) of the labeling device, the fixed end of the lifting drive 42 is connected to the lifting fixed frame 46, and the lifting guide 44 is arranged on the lifting fixed frame 46 along the Z axis. The lifting movable plate 45 is connected to the driving end of the lifting drive 42 and can slide along the lifting guide 44. The clamping assembly 41 and the rotating drive 43 are arranged on the lifting movable plate 45. The lifting movable plate 45 is driven to move by the lifting drive 42 to drive the clamping assembly 41 to move, thereby realizing the movement of the product 100 along the Z axis. By setting the lifting guide 44, a guiding effect is provided for the movement of the lifting movable plate 45, so that the movement of the lifting movable plate 45 is more stable.

[0092] Specifically, the lifting guide 44 includes a guide shaft 441 and a linear bearing 442. The linear bearing 442 is arranged on the lifting fixed frame 46. The top end of the guide shaft 441 is connected to the lifting movable plate 45. The bottom end of the guide shaft 441 is slidably matched with the linear bearing 442 to guide the linear motion of the lifting movable plate 45 along the Z axis.

[0093] Furthermore, if Figure 2 and Fig. 9 As shown, the driving mechanism 3 includes four support columns 31, an X-axis driving member 32, a Y-axis driving member 33 and a Z-axis driving member 34. The bottom ends of the four support columns 31 are fixed to the bottom plate of the labeling device (not shown in the figure). Two of the above-mentioned support columns 31 are arranged on both sides of the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism, and the barcode printing and peeling mechanism 5 is arranged on one side of the conveying mechanism and is located between the two support columns 31. The fixed end of the X-axis driving member 32 is arranged at the upper end of the support column 31, and the fixed end of the Y-axis driving member 33 is connected to the driving end of the X-axis driving member 32, and the X-axis driving member 32 can drive the Y-axis driving member 33 to reciprocate along the X-axis. The fixed end of the Z-axis driving member 34 is connected to the driving end of the Y-axis driving member 33, and the Y-axis driving member 33 can drive the Z-axis driving member 34 to reciprocate along the Y-axis. The driving end of the Z-axis driving member 34 is connected to the barcode pasting mechanism 2, and is used to drive the barcode pasting mechanism 2 to reciprocate along the Z-axis.

[0094] In this embodiment, the X-axis driving member 32, the Y-axis driving member 33 and the Z-axis driving member 34 all use electric cylinders, and the electric cylinders drive the linear movement. In other embodiments, the X-axis driving member 32, the Y-axis driving member 33 and the Z-axis driving member 34 can also use linear drive mechanisms such as cylinders or motor screw modules, as long as they can provide linear drive, and the specific structural form is not limited here.
