Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of glassware marking machines, in particular to a glassware marking mechanism. Background Art

[0002] After glassware is produced, a marking operation needs to be carried out. In the prior art, a variety of glass marking mechanisms have been proposed. For example, a marking device for glass processing proposed in the Chinese utility model patent with the publication number CN217730051U. When the sensor mechanism senses the glass, the motor starts to rotate the lead screw to make the slider move back and forth, thereby driving the cleaning component to clean the surface of the glass. The height of the marking component can be changed through the first telescopic rod, and marking operations can be carried out for glass with different thicknesses. The marking position of the marking component can be changed, the marking angle of the marking component can be changed, and marking operations can be carried out according to different marking requirements of different glasses.

[0003] However, the above prior art cannot automatically adjust the relative position and angle between the glassware and the marking component. Therefore, when laser marking the glassware, it is not convenient to automatically mark multiple parts on the surface of the circular glassware, the function is relatively single, and the working efficiency is low.

After the marking is completed, the motor 5 stops rotating. Then the four piston rods of the two double-headed cylinders 19 extend synchronously, pushing the outer ends of the four clamping rods 18 to rotate to both sides, so that the inner ends of the four clamping rods 18 rotate inward, so that the four side suction cups 20 respectively adsorb the opposite outer walls of the glassware, and the two silica gel strips 22 are stretched and adhered to the outer wall of the glassware.
