[0030] Specifically, the material loading tray 2 is of a rectangular block structure, and multiple material loading trays 2 are placed on the conveyor belt 102, and the length direction of the material loading tray 2 is parallel to the width direction of the conveyor belt; when the material loading tray 2 is placed on the conveyor belt 102, the bottom surface of the material loading tray 2 is in contact with the top surface of the conveyor belt 102, and the material loading tray 2 opens the material groove 201 on the top surface; the material loading tray 2 is provided with a first skewer passing channel 202 communicating with the material groove 201 on one side close to the label guiding tray 3 in the length direction, and a second skewer passing channel 203 communicating with the material groove 201 on one side far from the label guiding tray 3 in the length direction; during skewering, the skewer penetrates into the material loading tray 2 through the first skewer passing channel 202, passes through the materials in the material groove 201 after skewering, and exits from the second skewer passing channel 203.

[0031] In this embodiment, the material groove 201 is composed of multiple interconnected material cavities, the material cavities are arranged along the length direction of the material loading tray 2, the material cavities are hemispherical and can accommodate spherical materials; according to the actual situation, the number of material cavities can be increased accordingly, and other shapes of material cavities can be set to meet the skewering requirements of different quantities and shapes of materials.

[0032] The label guiding tray 3 is of a rectangular block structure, and multiple label guiding trays 3 are placed on the conveyor belt 102, and the length direction of the label guiding tray 3 is parallel to the width direction of the conveyor belt; when the label guiding tray 3 is placed on the conveyor belt 102, the bottom surface of the label guiding tray 3 is in contact with the top surface of the conveyor belt 102, and the label guiding tray 3 opens the label guiding groove 301 on the top surface; the label guiding tray 3 is provided with a first label guiding channel 302 communicating with the label guiding groove 301 on one side close to the material loading tray 2 in the length direction, and a second label guiding channel 303 communicating with the label guiding groove 301 on one side far from the material loading tray 2 in the length direction; during skewering, the skewer is configured in the knife skewer channel by a skewer matching mechanism and moves along the label guiding channel under the drive of the skewer passing mechanism, and penetrates into the material loading tray 2 from the first skewer passing connection after passing through the first label guiding channel 302.

[0033] The guiding label tray 3 is provided with two guiding parts 304 on the top surface. The two guiding parts 304 are arranged oppositely at the guiding label slot 301. The opposite sides of the two guiding parts 304 are provided with guiding surfaces, and the guiding surfaces are used to guide the inserted labels configured by the label matching mechanism into the guiding label slot 301.

[0034] The two guiding parts 304 on the guiding label tray 3 are in the structure of right-angled triangular blocks. The inclined surfaces of the two guiding parts 304 are opposite to each other and serve as guiding surfaces. The guiding surfaces of the two guiding parts 304 form a V-shaped structure. When matching labels, the inserted label falls on the guiding surface of one of the guiding parts 304 and slides into the guiding label slot 301 along the guiding surface of the guiding part 304 under the action of its own weight, realizing self-positioning of the inserted label configuration to improve the label matching accuracy.

[0035] The guiding label tray 3 is provided with a guiding nozzle 305 at the second guiding label channel 303.

The pressing plate 5 has a pressing groove 501 corresponding to the shapes of the material groove 201 and the guiding label slot 301, and a matching groove 502 corresponding to the guiding part 304. Driven by the first driving member, the pressing plate 5 descends and closes with the loading tray 2 and the guiding label tray 3 at the same time. After closing, the pressing groove 501 of the pressing plate 5 and the material groove 201 of the loading tray 2 and the guiding label slot 301 of the guiding label tray 3 form a closed label stringing space, so that the material can be limited in the material groove 201 and the inserted label can be limited in the guiding label slot 301 during label stringing, avoiding the material detaching from the loading tray and the inserted label shifting during the label stringing process and ensuring the smooth progress of label stringing.

[0037] Specifically, the pressing plate 5 is in the structure of a rectangular plate body. When the pressing plate 5 closes with the loading tray 2 and the guiding label tray 3, the bottom surface of the pressing plate 5 fits with the top surfaces of the loading tray 2 and the guiding label tray 3. At this time, the bottom surface of the pressing plate 5 is the closing surface. The pressing groove 501 and the matching groove 502 are arranged on the closing surface of the pressing plate 5. Through the mutual cooperation of the pressing groove 501 of the pressing plate 5 and the material groove 201 of the loading tray 2 and the guiding label slot 301 of the guiding label tray 3, and the mutual cooperation of the guiding part 304 and the matching groove 502, a closed label stringing space is formed to prevent the material from moving around and detaching from the loading tray 2 and the inserted label from moving around and detaching from the guiding label tray 3 during label stringing.

[0038] The pressing plate 5 is liftably arranged above the conveyor belt 102 through the suspension 6. In this embodiment, the first driving member is the first cylinder 7. The first cylinder 7 is fixedly installed on the suspension 6. The piston rod of the first cylinder 7 is vertically downward and connected to the top of the pressing plate 5. A guiding column 8 that can move axially is arranged on the suspension 6. The axis of the guiding column 8 is perpendicular to the surface of the conveyor belt 102. The bottom end of the guiding column 8 is connected to the top surface of the pressing plate 5. When stringing the labels, when the first cylinder 7 is started, the piston rod of the first cylinder 7 extends. Under the guidance of the guiding column 8, it drives the pressing plate 5 to descend and simultaneously abut against the material loading tray 2 and the label guiding tray 3 to complete the limiting of the material and the inserted labels.

[0039] The label stringing mechanism includes a support frame 9 arranged on one side of the conveyor belt 102. A linear guide rail 10 parallel to the width direction of the conveyor belt 102 is arranged on the support frame 9. A slider is slidably connected to the linear guide rail 10. A vertical plate 11 with a length direction parallel to the conveying direction is connected to the slider. A push rod 12 is arranged on the surface of the vertical plate 11 facing the conveyor belt 102. A second driving member is arranged on the surface of the vertical plate 11 facing away from the conveyor belt 102. The second driving member is the second cylinder 13 fixedly installed on the support frame 9. When the piston of the second cylinder 13 extends, it drives the vertical plate 11 to slide along the linear guide rail 10, and the push rod 12 on the vertical plate 11 enters the label guiding groove 301 through the guiding nozzle 305 on the label guiding tray 3 from the second label guiding channel 303, so as to push the inserted labels in the label guiding groove 301 into the material loading tray 2 to complete the label stringing.

[0040] In this embodiment, a plurality of push rods 12 are arranged. The push rods 12 are arranged at equal intervals along the length direction of the vertical plate 11. The distance between two adjacent push rods 12 corresponds to the distance between the label guiding grooves 301 on two adjacent material loading trays 2, so as to complete multiple label stringings with one push of the labels and improve the production efficiency. It should be noted that the width of the push rod 12 is smaller than the width of the second label guiding channel 303.

[0041] The label distribution mechanism includes a label distribution box 14 erected above the conveyor belt 102. The label distribution box 14 is a conventional label distribution box 14 in the prior art, including a box body. An accommodation cavity for accommodating the inserted labels and a motor cavity are formed inside the box body. The top of the box body forms a label inlet communicating with the accommodation cavity, and the bottom of the box body forms a label outlet communicating with the accommodation cavity. The size of the label inlet is larger than the size of the label outlet. A label distribution roller 1401 is arranged at the label outlet of the box body. A plurality of label distribution grooves are arranged on the circumferential surface of the label distribution roller 1401. One axial end of the label distribution roller 1401 extends into the motor cavity of the box body and is connected to a driving motor. When the driving motor is started, it drives the label distribution roller 1401 to rotate, and the label distribution grooves rotate accordingly. As the label distribution roller 1401 rotates, the inserted labels fall into the label distribution grooves rotating to the top of the label outlet one by one, and the label distribution grooves rotating to the bottom of the label outlet fall into the label guiding grooves 301 of the label guiding tray 3 one by one.
