[0042] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without making creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0043] The terms "first", "second", etc. in this application are used to distinguish similar objects, rather than to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such terms can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances so that the embodiments of this application can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described here, and the objects distinguished by "first" and "second" are usually of the same type, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, the first object can be one or multiple. In addition, "or" in this application means at least one of the connected objects. For example, "A or B" covers three scenarios, namely, Scenario 1: including A and not including B; Scenario 2: including B and not including A; Scenario 3: including both A and B. The character " / " generally indicates an "or" relationship between the associated objects before and after.

[0044] In the technical solutions of this disclosure, terms such as "connected", "coupled", or "connected" do not limit to physical or mechanical connections, but can include electrical connections.

[0045] In addition, the technical features involved in different embodiments of this application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0046] An embodiment of the present invention provides a label inserting device. Refer to Figures 1 to 6 as shown, including:

[0047] A row rack 100 having a plurality of mounting through holes 101 arranged at intervals along the length direction of the row rack 100;

[0048] A label inserting corrector 200, including:

[0049] A seat body 1 disposed in the mounting through hole 101 and having a limiting hole 2 penetrating through the seat body 1 along the length direction of the seat body 1. The limiting hole 2 is used to limit the circumferential displacement of the label rod when the label rod is inserted;

[0050] The limiting hole 2 forms a conical opening 3 with a conical shape at the upper end of the seat body 1; in the direction from top to bottom, the outer diameter of the conical opening 3 gradually decreases.

[0051] In practical applications, an ice cream mold is correspondingly arranged below the stick inserting corrector 200. During the stick inserting operation, the stick needs to pass through the limiting hole 2 to be inserted into the ice cream mold. By restricting the circumferential displacement of the stick through the limiting hole 2, it can be ensured that the stick is not interfered by solid additives, ensuring that the stick inserted into the ice cream mold remains vertical and improving the quality of ice cream products.

[0052] During the actual production process of the production line, there is inevitably a misalignment between the stick and the limiting hole 2, which is likely to cause the failure of stick insertion and reduce the production efficiency of ice cream products.

[0053] Based on this, the embodiment of the present utility model is also provided with a conical opening 3 with a conical shape, and, in the direction from top to bottom, the outer diameter of the conical opening 3 gradually decreases. During the stick inserting operation, if the stick is misaligned with the limiting hole 2, the lower end of the stick will first abut against the conical opening 3, and then, the lower end of the stick slides along the conical surface of the conical opening 3 towards the limiting hole 2 until the stick is inserted into the limiting hole 2. The embodiment of the present utility model can reduce the probability of stick insertion failure and improve the production efficiency of ice cream products.

[0054] In the embodiment of the present utility model, by providing that the seat body 1 has a limiting hole 2 that penetrates the seat body 1 along the length direction of the seat body 1, and the limiting hole 2 is used to restrict the circumferential displacement of the stick when the stick is inserted, the embodiment of the present utility model can avoid the stick from being interfered by solid additives and being skewed, and improve the quality of ice cream products. In addition, by providing the conical opening 3, the embodiment of the present utility model reduces the probability of stick insertion failure after the limiting hole 2 is provided and improves the production efficiency of ice cream products.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present utility model, optionally, referring to Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the seat body 1 further has a first chamber 4, the limiting hole 2 forms a first opening 401 communicating with the first chamber 4, and the lower end of the seat body 1 has a second opening 402 communicating with the first chamber 4;

[0056] The stick inserting corrector 200 further includes:

[0057] A silicone fixing member 5, which is fitted and embedded into the first chamber 4 from the second opening 402, has a first through hole 50 that penetrates the silicone fixing member 5 along the length direction of the silicone fixing member 5, and the first through hole 50 is aligned and communicated with the limiting hole 2.

[0058] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the silica gel fixing member 5 is used to provide braking force for the signing rod, maintain the depth of the signing rod inserted into the ice cream mold after the signing operation, and prevent the signing rod from being completely immersed in the ice cream liquid under the action of its own gravity. Specifically, the first through hole 50 is aligned and communicated with the limiting hole 2. During the signing operation, the signing rod sequentially passes through the limiting hole 2 and the first through hole 50 and is inserted into the ice cream mold. After the signing operation, the inner side wall of the first through hole 50 abuts against the circumferential side wall of the signing rod. The inner side wall of the first through hole 50 (made of silica gel material) is deformed by the extrusion of the signing rod and generates an upward braking force on the signing rod. The braking force cancels out the gravity of the signing rod itself, maintains the depth of the signing rod inserted into the ice cream mold after the signing operation, prevents the signing rod from being completely immersed in the ice cream liquid under the action of its own gravity, and improves the success rate of signing.

[0059] It should be noted that the contour of the first chamber 4 is the same as that of the silica gel fixing member 5. By deforming the silica gel fixing member 5 during assembly, the silica gel fixing member 5 can be fitted and embedded into the first chamber 4 from the second opening 402.

[0060] In some embodiments of the present utility model, optionally, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the silica gel fixing member 5 has a first cylindrical section 51, a second cylindrical section 52 and a third cylindrical section 53; in the length direction of the silica gel fixing member 5, the second cylindrical section 52 is located between the first cylindrical section 51 and the third cylindrical section 53; the outer diameter M of the second cylindrical section 52, the outer diameter N of the third cylindrical section 53 and the outer diameter L of the first cylindrical section 51 satisfy: M > N > L;

[0061] The first chamber 4 includes a first chamber section 41, a second chamber section 42 and a third chamber section 43; the first chamber section 41, the second chamber section 42 and the third chamber section 43 are all cylindrical; in the length direction of the seat body 1, the second chamber section 42 is located between the first chamber section 41 and the third chamber section 43; the first chamber section 41 is communicated with the limiting hole 2, and the third chamber section 43 is communicated with the second opening 402;

[0062] The outer diameter M1 of the second chamber section 42 and the outer diameter M of the second cylindrical section 52 satisfy: M1 = M,

[0063] The outer diameter N1 of the third chamber section 43 and the outer diameter N of the second cylindrical section 52 satisfy: N1 = N,

[0064] The outer diameter L1 of the first chamber section 41 and the outer diameter L of the second cylindrical section 52 satisfy: L1 = L.

[0065] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the contour of the first chamber 4 is the same as that of the silica gel fixing member 5. By deforming the silica gel fixing member 5 during assembly, the silica gel fixing member 5 can be fitted and embedded into the first chamber 4 from the second opening 402.

[0066] In addition, by setting the outer diameter M of the second cylindrical section 52, the outer diameter N of the third cylindrical section 53, and the outer diameter L of the first cylindrical section 51 to satisfy: M > N > L, the outer diameter M1 of the second cavity section 42 and the outer diameter M of the second cylindrical section 52 to satisfy: M1 = M, the outer diameter N1 of the third cavity section 43 and the outer diameter N of the second cylindrical section 52 to satisfy: N1 = N, and the outer diameter L1 of the first cavity section 41 and the outer diameter L of the second cylindrical section 52 to satisfy: L1 = L, in the embodiment of the present utility model, the second cylindrical section 52 and the second cavity section 42 cooperate to form a limiting structure, and this limiting structure is used to limit the silicone fixing member 5 from disengaging from the first chamber 4 through the second opening 402. In particular, during the operation of inserting the label, when the label rod is inserted into the first through hole 50, a downward acting force is applied to the silicone fixing member 5. The above-mentioned limiting structure can ensure that the silicone fixing member 5 offsets the acting force applied by the insertion of the label rod, ensuring that the silicone fixing member 5 does not disengage from the first chamber 4 during the label insertion operation, guaranteeing the smooth progress of the label insertion operation and improving production efficiency.

The above setting can provide a stable supporting force for the base body 1, guarantee the smooth progress of the label insertion operation, and improve production efficiency.

Based on the above setting, the base body 1 can be cooperatively arranged in the installation through hole 101, avoiding the circumferential displacement of the base body 1 itself, thereby reducing the probability that the circumferential displacement of the base body 1 causes the misalignment between the label rod and the limiting hole 2, improving the success rate of label insertion, and improving the production efficiency of the product.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present utility model, optionally, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 6 as shown, the base body 1 is cylindrical, and the annular boss 6 protrudes outward along the radial direction of the base body 1. The above setting can provide a stable supporting force for the base body 1, guarantee the smooth progress of the label insertion operation, and improve production efficiency.
