Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of labeling equipment, in particular to a vacuum labeling machine. Background Art

[0002] The existing label pasting work generally adopts the method of roller pressing for labeling. Labels are usually manufactured in the form of winding rollers, which is more suitable for labeling cylindrical targets. An adhesive is pre-coated on the surface of the label in contact with the target. As the pressing roller rotates, the pressing roller pastes the label on the target to complete the labeling work. Due to the use of the pressing roller method, the roller shaft has a certain length, so the floor area of the equipment will be relatively large. At the same time, the roller pressing method is generally only applicable to rotatable cylindrical targets and cannot paste labels on some non-rotatable sides, such as the side of a material roll.

[0033] Driven by the horizontal conveying mechanism 2, the vacuum adsorption mechanism 4 conveys the adsorbed label to the next process.

[0034] In the utility model, by cooperating the label printer 3, the vacuum adsorption mechanism 4 and the horizontal conveying mechanism 2, after the label printed by the label printer 3 is adsorbed on the vacuum adsorption mechanism 4, it is conveyed to the next process by the horizontal conveying mechanism 2 to complete the automatic pasting work of the label. Compared with the existing rolling method, the label pasting process of the utility model is more flexible, can adapt to the horizontal labeling work, does not need to use the rolling method to press the label on the product surface, reduces equipment such as rolling shafts, makes the floor area of this labeling machine smaller, and at the same time, by adopting the vacuum adsorption method, it can effectively avoid the label from wrinkling or being damaged during labeling, improving the labeling success rate and labeling efficiency.

[0035] Preferably, the vacuum adsorption mechanism 4 includes an adsorption panel 41, a vacuum air inlet hole 42, a base 43, a groove 44, a vacuum nozzle 45 and a connecting frame 46;

[0036] The adsorption panel 41 is arranged on the connecting frame 46 in the vertical direction, and the connecting frame 46 is connected with the horizontal conveying mechanism 2; the vacuum air inlet hole 42 is arranged on the adsorption panel 41, and a plurality of vacuum air inlet holes 42 are arranged; the base 43 is connected with the adsorption panel 41, the groove 44 is arranged on the side of the base 43 opposite to the adsorption panel 41, and the groove 44 and the adsorption panel 41 cooperate to form a cavity; an air suction hole 47 communicated with the cavity is arranged on the base 43, one end of the vacuum nozzle 45 is communicated with the air suction hole 47, and the other end of the vacuum nozzle 45 is communicated with the output end of an external vacuum generating mechanism.

[0037] In the present utility model, through the cooperation of the vacuum nozzle 45, an external vacuum generating mechanism, and the vacuum intake holes 42, a negative pressure is generated on the end face of the adsorption panel 41, so that the end face of the adsorption panel 41 can adsorb the label printed by the label printer 3. Since the contact between the adsorption panel 41 and the label is flat, and through a plurality of vacuum intake holes 42, the force acting on each position of the label can be ensured to be the same. Therefore, compared with the traditional rolling method or manual labeling method, the vacuum adsorption fixing method can reduce the occurrence of situations such as the label being bent, ensure the success rate during label pasting, and reduce the loss of the label caused by wrinkles.

In order to improve the connection strength between the vacuum adsorption mechanism 4 and the sliding seat 23, a connecting plate 48 is provided between the connecting frame 46 and the sliding seat 23.

[0046] Specifically, the cylinder 22 is disposed between the two linear guide rails 21.

[0047] To improve the smoothness of the movement of the sliding seat 23, the cylinder 22 is disposed between the two linear guide rails 21, so that the force output by the cylinder 22 can act on the middle part of the vacuum adsorption mechanism 4, ensuring that the vacuum adsorption mechanism 4 can slide smoothly.
